GIBNEY <br />EXECUTIVE DIP.ECTOR <br />August 17, 2009 <br />Mr. Derek Deiter ` ~ ~ ~ ~ _ V~ <br />President, South Bend Common Council ~ ~ L ~~ ~ ~ V <br />227 W. Jefferson Blvd., Suite 400 <br />South Bend, IN 46601 <br />Dear President Deiter: <br />The attached bill for Council consideration and approval will amend the CDBG <br />appropriation ordinance #9877-08 which the Council passed on November 10, 2008. The overall <br />appropriation is being increased by $]30,000, and certain project allocations are being adjusted <br />and reduced. This is a companion bill to the CDBG-R ordinance also being submitted at this <br />same time. This bill revises the November 2008 CDBG ordinance by: <br />1) Adding the increased award amount of $130,000 <br />2) Reducing the allocation to Code Enforcement for the Demolition of Vacant <br />and Abandoned properties <br />3) Deleting funding for the Dunbar Corner Rehab (which is covered under the <br />CDBG-R ordinance) <br />4) Adding the rehab of (1) Hansel Center for the Notre Dame Center for Arts <br />and Culture, and (2) former Engman Natatorium. As the Civil Rights <br />Heritage Center <br />As was indicated in my email to the Council on June 23, 2009 and in my meetings with <br />some Council members, these changes are recommended after consultation with HUD based on <br />the funding best suited for each project. Additionally, these changes were the subject of a <br />Tribuzle notice on June 24"', a 30 day public comment period that ran from June 25`h to July 24"', <br />and a public hearing held on July 7, 2009. <br />Should there be any questions on this bill please contact me at 235-5845. I will be <br />present to address this issue at the September 14, 2009 meeting. Thank you. <br />Since felt', <br />~~ ~-~ <br />i~'cY't~- j ~ '• /~ ' <br />Pane a et' `- <br />Director / ~tr~'~ Ci ~~~f €~'~ ~E~~~~ <br />cc: Jeff Gibney, Catherine Fanello/Gregg Zientara, John March, Judy Roshecl< ~ I A E'~ ~ G Q~ <br />fiU J L~ <br />COMMUNITY DEVELOPbtENT ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT <br />PAMELA C.
