M m er of the Com n Council December 21, 1954 Dear Members of the South Bend Common Council: The Appropriation Ordinance as described herein is necessary if we are to be successful in the acquiring of private monies for the important project of renovation of the Palais Royale and the Morris Civic Auditorium; funding sources simply want to view documents about the proposed project improvements. We have a unique opportunity to gain the use of a significant portion of the historic Pala-is Royale for such improvements as restrooms for the handicapped and a larger, more secure box office and lobby, which will enhance the Morris Civic Auditorium. The renovation of the Morris Auditorium will be a most significant event to make our community's central core complete with entertainment and meeting facilities. We urge your prompt approval of this ordinance. Sin il , Brian R.
