Strycker, Youth Service Bureau Re: L.E.A.A. Grant Resolution Date: April 23, 1980 121 South Michigan Street South Bend, Indiana 46601 219/284 -9231 The Youth Service Bureau is requesting that the South Bend Common Council approve a resolution allowing the Bureau to submit a grant application to the Law Enforcement Assistance Administration to provide funding for office space for the Youth Service Bureau's operation. As you are aware, the Bureau is currently housed at 121 S. Michigan Street on River Bend Plaza. This building will be demolished in the not too distant future. The Bureau has searched for the past eighteen months for office space that meets our need and at the same time is cost effective. Options have been considered including renovation of a City owned property, purchase and renovation, or rental of office space. This grant application is for reprogrammed 1978 Law Enforcement Assistance Administration funds. These funds are being requested for renovation, and represent half of the total funds needed. Although not committed to renovation, it was felt to be in the City's best interest to make application for these funds. This application in no way commits the City. The application can be withdrawn at any time. I apologize for not making the members of the Common Council aware of this sooner. I recently became aware of the possibility of using these funds for renovation. Since the funds represent reprogrammed money, the turn around time for application is short. This application will be placed on the May 7, 1980 L.E.A.A. Regional Advisory Committee agenda and on the State agenda on June 13, 1980. I appreciate your consideration and approval of this resolution. Please feel free to call me if you have any questions.
