RESOLUTION APPROVING APPLICATION FOR PRELIMINARY LOAN

WHEREAS, it is the policy of this locality to eliminate substandard and other
inadequate housing, to prevent the spread of slums and blight, and to realize as
soon as feasible the goal of a decent home in a suitable living environment for
all of its citizens; and
WHEREAS, under the provisions of the United States Housing Act of 1937, as
amended, the United States of America, Housing Assistance Administration (herein-
after called the "Government") is authorized to provide financial assistance to
local public housing agencies for undertaking and carrying out preliminary plan-
ning of low-rent housing projects that will assist in meeting this goal; and
WHEREAS, the Act provides that there shall be local determination of need for
low-rent housing to meet needs not being adequately met by private enterprise and
that the Government shall not make any contract with a public housing agency for
preliminary loans for surveys and planning in respect to any low-rent housing
projects unless the governing body of the locality involved has by resolution
approved the application of the public housing agency for such preliminary loan;
and
WHEREAS, the Housing Authority of the City of South Bend (herein called the
"Local Authority") is a public housing agency and is applying to the Government
for a preliminary loan to cover the costs of surveys and planning in connection
with the development of low-rent housing;
NOW, THEREFORE, be it resolved by the City Council of the
City of South Bend as follows:
1. There exists in the City of South Bend a need for
such low-rent housing at rents within the means of low-income families;
2. The application of the Local Authority to the Government for a preliminary
loan in an amount not to exceed $ 140,000.00 for surveys and planning in
connection with low-rent housing projects of not to exceed approximately 350
dwelling units is hereby approved.
