Re: Filing of Resolution for Historic Preservation Commission
Dear Mr. Voorde:
I am writing this letter to you in my capacity as Counsel to the Historic
Preservation Commission (the "Commission"). Please find enclosed for filing a
Resolution that approves the use of certain grant funds and gifts received by the
Commission. Section 21-13.03(j) of the South Bend Municipal Code requires that any
funds received by the Commission through a donation or grant must be deposited into a
special fund to be used for the purposes, and in accordance with the restrictions of, the
grant or donation.
As detailed in the resolution, the Commission received four grants and is seeking
the approval of the Common Council to use those funds consistent with the purposes and
restrictions of the grants. Catherine Hostetler, the Director of the Historic Preservation
Commission, or another Commission representative will be available at the Committee
meeting and the Common Council meeting to answer any questions you may have.
The Commission respectfully requests that the Common Council consider and
adopt this Resolution at its September 11, 2006 meeting. Should you have any questions
regarding the scheduling or filing of this Resolution, please feel free to call me at (574)
