was adopted by the Board of Public Works, and read aloud to Mr. Inks and those present by Ms.
Greene:
RESOLUTION NO. 25-2013
A RESOLUTION OF
THE SOUTH BEND BOARD OF PUBLIC WORKS
HONORING DIRECTOR OF ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT DONALD INKS
FOR HIS DEDICATED SERVICE TO THE CITY OF SOUTH BEND, INDIANA
WHEREAS, after thirty-one (31) years and five (5) months of remarkable service to the
City of South Bend, Donald E. Inks announced his plans to retire on April 30, 2013; and
WHEREAS, Don has served as Director of Redevelopment for thirteen (13) years; and
WHEREAS, Don was appointed by Mayor Stephen Luecke as a member of the City's
Board of Public Works; and
WHEREAS, after being appointed to the Board of Public Works by Mayor Luecke, the
Redevelopment Commission granted the Board of Works oversight of Don by virtue of an
Addendum to an Amendment to a Master Agency Agreement that was duly accepted by a
resolution entitled "A Resolution of the City of South Bend Board of Public Works Wherein the
City of South Bend Board of Public Works Accepts the South Bend Redevelopment Commission's
Appointment of the City of South Bend Board of Public Works as the City of South Bend
Redevelopment Commission's Agent for Oversight of Donald E. Inks and Establishing the Dates
and Times During Which the City of South Bend Board of Works May Exercise Such Oversight,
Thereby Setting a New World Record for the Longest Title Ever Written for a Resolution Duly
Adopted by the City of South Bend Board of Public Works And Far Exceeding the Previous
Record for Resolution Titles Set by Phil Faccenda at Barnes c& Thornburg", with the scope of
Don's services listed in excruciating detail at Exhibit A incorporated by reference thereto, and
subject, of course, to approval by Legal; and
WHEREAS, by virtue of a Second Addendum to the First Amendment to the Master
Agency Agreement, the Board, as agent of the Redevelopment Commission and agent of itself,
has ratified, confirmed and approved the City's determination to release Don of his Board of
Works duties as described at Exhibit A and to further release him from his appointment under the
Agency Agreement; and
WHEREAS, during his tenure with the City, Don has served as Director of
Redevelopment to Jon Hunt, Sharon Kendall, Jeff Gibney, and Scott Ford; and
WHEREAS, one of Don's chief roles during the Jon Hunt years was to listen carefully to
Jon's grand ideas on a weekly basis and to remind Jon that TIF money could only be spent once,
although Jon skillfully managed to avoid that particular limitation frequently thereby causing
Don to consider early retirement on any number of occasions; and
WHEREAS, Don has initiated or overseen many public works projects including Portage
Prairie, Tech Data, Innovation Park, Erskine Plaza, the Hansel Center, renovation of the former
Natatorium, the Memorial Hospital campus expansion, licensing of various hot dog stands
throughout the City, the approval of numerous parades not being held in his honor, and the
installation of a world class roundabout located on Portage Avenue near Don's home; and
AGENDA REVIEW SESSION MAY 9, 2013 138
WHEREAS, during his time with the City, Don has provided the Department of Public
Works with exceptional leadership, and has earned the admiration and respect of his fellow
employees, Board members and City administrators by the way in which he has carried out his
responsibilities; and
WHEREAS, in accordance with IC 5-22-22-6, the Board has determined that, although
still fit for the purpose for which he was intended and having further determined that the cost of
retaining Don may or may not exceed the cost of disposing of his employment with the City,
Don should still be permitted to retire; and
WHEREAS, as he leaves his years of service to the City to begin the World's Longest
Coffee Break, Don's love of coffee is hereby officially recognized, and he is reminded that he,
will no longer be allowed to enjoy the pleasure of drinking coffee on the City's time, and may
actually have to give up drinking coffee in the afternoon entirely in order to not interfere with his
afternoon nap; and
WHEREAS, Don's practice of using Fridays to go fishing is hereby replaced with his
new retirement practice of "fishing yesterday, fishing today, and fishing tomorrow" further
evidencing that in retirement, just as in service to the City, there is never a day off; and
WHEREAS, Don's memory of events and details will be sorely missed as a wealth of
historical information for the City -- although according to Jenny Hullinger, Don's memory does
not extend to recalling where, when and why he is heading out the door to yet another meeting;
and
WHEREAS, it is hereby officially recognized that Don's retirement means that he has
returned home from the office to say to his wife, Beth, "Hi, Honey, I'm home — forever"; and
WHEREAS, Don will likely be reminded daily by Beth that his retirement means that
there will never be enough time to do all of the "nothing" that he wants to do and never enough
time to do all of the "something" that she wants him to do as the two of them continue their work
on their Portage home; and
WHEREAS, Don will always be considered an asset to the City of South Bend for his
knowledge, and meritorious and dedicated service to the City of South Bend, the community,
and the State of Indiana.
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED that the City of South Bend Board of Public
Works does hereby commend and honor Donald E. Inks, congratulate him upon his retirement
from his years of distinguished leadership and many years of public service, and extend warmest
wishes for his enjoyment and continued prosperity in his years of relaxation that lie ahead.
BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED by the City of South Bend Board of Public Works that
Donald E. Inks is hereby sent off with the very best of wishes, with some chocolate TIF dollars
in the form of a "Bag O' Money" to be enjoyed without consideration for the TIF laws and
regulations governing same, and -- with sincere apologies to Dr. Suess — the following thoughts:
Congratulations, Don! Today is your day.
Finally! You've made it after thirty—one years and five days!
You're off to Great Places!
You're off and away.
You have brains in your head.
You have feet in your shoes.
Go off to do whatever it is that you choose!
You're off to great places, today is your day!
Your fishing rod is waiting,
So, get on your way!
BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED that a certified copy of this Resolution be maintained in
the official records of the South Bend Board of Public Works, and that a copy of this Resolution
be furnished to Donald E. Inks, the City of South Bend, and representatives of the media.

- Encroachment -- TRANSPO
Mr. David Cangaey and Ms. Amy Hill, TRANSPO, stated they were present to answer any
questions the Board might have regarding their request to place numerous bus -stop signs in the
right-of-way. Mr. Gilot noted the City has standards on how close signs can be spaced. Mr.
Cangaey stated they intended to put no more than six (6) signs per mile. Mr. Gilot stated the
pattern is for Board of Works to approve the encroachment in the right-of-way, but the City
Engineer has the authority to work through the details with TRANSPO. Mr. Cangaey noted that
AGENDA REVIEW SESSION MAY 9, 2013 140
TRANSPO is hoping for efficiency, reduced costs mainly in fuel savings, and reliability by
having designated stops.
- Request to Advertise -- Studebaker Plaza
Mr. Gilot asked Mr. Jitin Kain, Community Investment, if an easement was obtained for the
construction of the Studebaker Plaza. Mr. Kain stated they are getting a short-term access
agreement, and working on a long term development agreement. Ms. Greene noted that all
outside counsel has to be approved by City Legal counsel so they would need to work with Legal
on obtaining counsel for the preparation of the paperwork.
- Amendment to Contract — Rebuilding Together
Ms. Pam Meyer, Community Investment, said she was just informed that the work on these
homes will also include insulation work, not just HVAC repairs as stated in the documents. She
asked if she would need to provide a new contract. Ms. Greene stated she would think the
insulation would be incidental to the HVAC system.
- Donation Agreements - Wells Fargo Bank, N.A.
Ms. Pam Meyer, Community Investment, stated Wells Fargo Bank previously offered these two
(2) lots to the City with buildings on them, but the City did not want them. She noted they
demolished the properties and are once again offering just the lots plus an additional $3,000.00
per property. She stated the City is accepting the properties with some contingencies. She noted
they left the concrete steps when they demolished the buildings and she has notified them the
City will not work with them until those are cleared.
- Professional Services Proposal — Weaver Boos Consultants
Ms. Ann Kolata, Community Investment, stated this proposal is for the cleanup of contaminated
soil at the former Studebaker Museum. She noted that when the building was demolished, not all
of the remediation was done. IDEM has ordered the clean-up to be completed. Ms. Kolata noted
that the work is to be billed against this proposal, but it may be less than stated, depending on
how long the monitoring takes place. She added they will need a place to put the excavated soil.
Mr. Eric Horvath, Director of Public Works, suggested Central Services could put a fifty-five
gallon drum at their facility at the curb for easy access. Mr. Gilot informed Ms. Kim Thompson
that she may need to be a "checks and balance" before IDEM inspects the site, to test
contamination levels.
- Revise Significant User Industrial Wastewater Discharge Permits
Ms. Kim Thompson, Environmental Services, noted that the revisions to two of the permits are
due to a mistake on the paperwork on the expiration dates. She noted the dates on the first two
were shortened by a month. Mr. Gilot stated that is a scrivener's error, it shouldn't need Board of
Works approval. Ms. Greene confirmed that Ms. Thompson can fix the error herself and doesn't
have to bring it back to the Board. Ms. Thompson stated the third one is for formally transferring
New Energy Corp. to South Bend Ethanol Assets, LLC, the new owners.
- Award Bid — Detritus Grit Tank Drive Restoration
Mr. Jacob Klosinski, Environmental Services, stated he received two (2) bids for this project, one
that was found non -compliant due to no acknowledgement of an Addendum. He stated he is
requesting to award to the low bidder, and noted that both bids were slightly lower than the
Engineer's estimate.
- Request to Advertise for Proposals — Management and Marketing of the Organic
Resources Facility
Mr. Al Greek, Environmental Services, noted that in 2011, Environmental Services started to
review budgets to see what the Organic Resources Facility costs are. He stated the review
showed that it's costing Environmental Services close to $1,000,000.00 a year, with the sale of
their product bringing in $75,000,00. They decided to do a cost analysis of outsourcing the
operation since it was losing so much money. Mr. Greek noted the other problem is they have
created a huge backlog of organic material they've collected. It hasn't been screened and it
contains plastics and materials. He noted the cost to clean it is estimated at $2,500,000.00. He
stated they are putting this in the cost of the management proposal to see what they come up
with. Mr. Greek stated he has spoken to other facilities that have outsourced their operations and
one in particular stated it cut their operating cost by 50%.
- Award Bid — Water Works Customer Billing
Ms. Roxanne Lawson, Water Works, stated Water Works has been doing an analysis on
outsourcing and put a bid out. One came in extremely low, much lower than their current rate.
Mr. Gilot noted they need to include their current costs in the bid tab for a comparison. Ms.
Greene noted the postage language sounded very ambiguous; it should be more specific. Mr.
George King, Purchasing, stated he wrote two lines to insert in the agreement restricting mark-up
on postage and guaranteeing use of the lowest current postage rates.
- Award Bids - 35 Ton Paver and Dual Fuel Gasoline and LP Powered Lift Truck
V
AGENDA REVIEW SESSION MAY 9, 2013 141
Mr. Jeff Hudak, Central Services, stated there were two bidders on the paver and the low bidder
is getting the award. He noted on the lift -truck, they received only one bid, but this is not a
common piece of equipment. He noted the one bid is still under budget. Mr. Hudak explained
that the lift truck will be used inside as well as outside, and that is the reason for the two different
fuels.
- Service Agreement ---- Public Safety Medical
Fire Chief Steve Cox and Assistant Chief Todd Skwarkan informed the Board that this
agreement is for conducting firefighter physicals. Chief Cox stated their former contractor,
Wipperman, recently sold their company to I.U. Health. Mr. Gilot questioned if the contract
terms with Wipperman have expired. Chief Cox stated the contract expired last year and has not
been renewed. Mr. Gilot suggested a review of the terms to make sure they did not need to put
their cancellation in writing.
APPROVE REQUEST FOR TEMPORARY CHANGE TO„TRAFFIC CONTROL
Mr. Gilot advised that the following request for a temporary change to traffic control has been
received and needed to be approved today due to the event's schedule:
L Applicant: Indiana University South Bend
a) Event: E-Waste Recycling Fest

Upon a motion made by Mr. GiIot, seconded by Mr. Mecham and carried, the above request for a
temporary traffic restriction was approved.
