Between the City and Southhold Restorations, Inc., all relate to
a parcel of property located at 312 East South Street.
Mrs. Mueller noted that this property was previously leased by
the Redevelopment Authority to the City. At that time the City
subleased the property to Housing Development Corporation. The
property was never used by the Housing Development Corporation.

City to get out of the sublease with Housing Development
Corporation. Resolution No. 8-1993 transfers the property from
the Redevelopment Authority to the City, Resolution No. 9-1993,
transfers the property to Southhold Restorations, Inc.,

reverts back to the City.
Therefore, Mrs. Mueller made a motion that the Resolutions,

APPROVE REQUEST TO DESIGNATE SOUTH BEND COMMUNITY SCHOOL
CORPORATION AS AGENT FOR PURCHASING OF COPIER AND COMPUTER PAPER
In a Memorandum to the Board, Ms. Beverly J. Kiebel, Purchasing
Supervisor, advised that the South Bend Community School
Corporation purchases copier and computer paper in greater
quantities than the City of South Bend and therefore they are
able to obtain significantly better prices. Ms. Kiebel further
advised that the South Bend Community School Corporation follows
the same bid procedures required by the City under I.C. 36-1-9-1
et seq. Additionally, the South Bend Community School
Corporation is willing to solicit bids for copier paper and
computer paper that would supply both the School Corporation and
the City's needs and would provide for delivery to the City as
the prices bid. Therefore, Ms. Kiebel requested that the Board
designate the South Bend Community School Corporation as their
agent for the purpose of soliciting and receiving bids and
awarding contracts for the purchase of copier and computer paper.
Board Attorney and Member Mary H. Mueller informed members of the
Board that the South Bend Community School Corporation does buy
significantly more paper than the City and because of that they
get a price one-third (1/3) lower that what the City pays. Mrs.
Mueller noted that the School Corporation has exactly the same
bidding procedures as the City and she believes that it is
perfectly appropriate that the City designate the School
Corporation as its agent for this purchase by putting the City's
bid with the School Corporation's. It is noted that the paper
required by the City will be delivered directly to the City.
Therefore, Mr. Leszczynski made a motion that the request be
approved. Mr. Caldwell seconded the motion which carried.

Mr. Leszczynski noted that the Board is in receipt of a Sidewalk

cafe at that location. It is further noted that the appropriate
City departments and bureaus have reviewed this request and
approval is recommended.
