Director, Public Works CITY of SOUTH BEND PETER J. NEMETH, Mayor COUNTY -CITY BUILDING SOUTH BEND, INDIANA 46601 July 18, 1979 Members of the Common Council 441 County /City Building South Bend, IN 46601 RE: Revenue Sharing Request Motor Fuel Dear Councilmen: Attached you will find an ordinance requesting $95,000 from the General Revenue Sharing Fund. Purpose of this appropriation is to supplement the regular budget line items and other supple- mentary appropriations which have been made in order to balance the funding needed for motor fuel purchases as projected for 1979. It is anticipated that the total cost for motor fuel for 1979 will be approximately $353,000. (It was estimated in June of last year, at budget time, that 1979 costs would be $360,000.) A breakdown of the total funding for motor fuel is as follows: $178,000 - General Fund 30,000 - Water Works 50,000 - Street Department (MVH) 95,000 - Revenue Sharing $353,000 A review of our gasoline and diesel fuel usage has been made and I find that the usage for 1979 is consistent with the gasoline usage during 1978. We have experienced, however, an average in- crease in cost in 1979 of 1.88 cents per gallon per month. 219/284 -9251 Members of the Common Council Page Two July 18, 1979 Your favorable consideration is requested.
