KEMPER ) Councilman Sestle made a motion that the report be accepted. Councilman Glass seconded the motion. Motion carried. COMMUNICATION TO THE HONORABLE MEMBERS OF THE COMMON COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF SOUTH BEND: November 279 1951 I have approved and subscribed to the above and foregoing Resolution after some hesitation and with definite reservations. This Resolution makes certain suggestions to the New City Administration which will take office January 1, 1952. This I consider inappropriate. The Resolution further emphasizes engineering plans for the: "Resurfacing of portions of Indiana Avenue" which I believe to be too vague and does not contemplate the full engineering plans for that particular highway. It does not refer to the East and West Sample Street proposed improvements, in my opinion being the prime project, although, as I mentioned in the foregoing, such suggestion is not timely. In addition to Sample Street and the proposals for Indiana Avenue there are other arterial highways such as LaPorte) Avenue which are of prime importance. The planning and the fulfilment of the program, as engineered, has had no political implications. Respectfully submitted, GEO. A. SCHOCK GAS:em Mayor Councilman Korpal made a motion that the communication be accepted and placed on file. Councilman Bestle seconded the motion. Motion carried.
