Re: Proposed Ordinance Authorizing the Issuance of Revenue Bonds for
Allied Products Corporation Project - Phase II
Dear Councilmen:
As you are aware, the South Bend Economic Development Commission
approved an application from Allied Products Corporation for
$6,500,000.00 of economic development revenue bonds to purchase,
renovate and equip certain economic development facilities in
South Bend, Indiana.
On March 2, 1984, your Council, at a special meeting, passed
Ordinance No. 7308 -84, approving the financing arrangements for
Phase I of the project in the amount of $850,000.00.
Attached is the proposed Ordinance authorizing the issuance and
sale of $2,400,000.00 of revenue bonds for further completion of
the project.
As we advised on March 2, 1984, we anticipate filing with this
Ordinance the supplemental financing documents, and would
respectfully request that at the March 26, 1984 meeting this
Ordinance receive first reading, a suspension of your rules to
permit second reading and public hearing, and a favorable vote
thereon.
As I outlined before, we are looking at upwards to 75 total new
jobs be created when the entire project is finally finished
throgh the various phases.
