NEMETH, <br />BEND <br />Mayor <br />COUNTY -CITY BUILDING SOUTH BEND, INDIANA 46601 <br />September 8, 1976 <br />Members of the Common Council <br />441 County /City Building <br />South Bend, IN 46601 <br />Subject: R & S 89 <br />Dear Council Members: <br />QpUTiDN�&/c <br />LU <br />?� <br />Z <br />a <br />#NDIA01 <br />219/284 -9251 <br />The City of South Bend has placed a high priority on the development <br />of its Central Business District. A critical element in the develop- <br />ment of the Central Business District is the movement of vehicular <br />traffic into and out of this area. <br />Any significant development in this area can be expected to result in <br />a heavy increase in traffic movements over that now existent. The <br />present Colfax Avenue Bridge will prove a restriction to any significant <br />increase in traffic. <br />It now appears that certain funds may be available through the Federal <br />Public Works Program. In anticipation of this funding, and to meet the <br />Grant Guidelines, it is necessary that design engineering be initiated <br />and completed at the earliest possible date. The Department of Public <br />Works is, therefore, requesting your favorable consideration of this <br />ordinance appropriating design fees for this project. <br />Very truly yours, <br />Rollin E. Farrand, P.E. <br />Director <br />REF:amc <br />
