Dear Board Members:
PHONE 5741 Z35-9255
1— 5741235-9305
Battalion Chief Mark Catanzarite has retired as a member in good standing from the South Bend
Fire Department after 30 years of service. The fire helmet and boots which he used for many
years are, in my opinion, unfit to be issued to any other firefighter in this Department. The fair
market value is practically negligible and certainly far less than $1,000.00.
I request that the helmet and boots be declared as surplus and presented to Chief Catanzarite.
Thank you for your consideration of this request.
