Martin Luther King's birthday as a designated holiday for City officers <br /> and employees. This increased the number of designated holidays from nine to ten, and eliminated one <br /> non-designated holiday. Chapter 2, Article 8, Section 2-121(a) of the South Bend Municipal Code was <br /> amended accordingly. <br /> At this time, tc increase morale and better accommodate persons of all religions, Good Friday <br /> will be eliminated as a designated holiday to be replaced by one non-designated holiday which can be any <br /> day selected by each City officer or employee. This necessitates another amendment to the Municipal <br /> Code, Chapter 2, Article 8, Section 2-121(a) which will now provide for nine designated holidays and one <br /> non-designated holiday of each officer or employee's choice. <br /> I will present this Bill to the Common Council at its appropriate committee meeting and at the <br /> public hearing during the Common Council's regular meeting. <br /> Thank you for your consideration of this matter. <br /> Sincerely, <br /> ct" cler k's ICS <br /> Mark W.
