the Original Plat of the Town, now City of South Bend, together with the vacated alley lying between said lots

TO THE COMMON COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF SOUTH BEND:
There are insufficient funds in the General Fund of the City to meet operating needs which were included in the
regular budget and appropriation adopted for the year 1962 which are required to be met prior to the receipt of taxes
in the year 1962. It will be necessary to authorize and make a temporary loan for the General Fund in the amount of
$500,000.00, and I recommend that a temporary loan be authorized for the General Fund in the amount of $500,000.00,
and that the warrants evidencing said loan be made payable June 15, 1962.
The net assessed valuation of taxable property in the City, as shown by the assessment made for City and County tax
in the year 1961, is in the amount of $226,517,410.00. The tax levy made for the General Fund for the year 1962 was
$2.803 on each $100.00 taxable valuation, and I estimate that the total amount to be received from such tax levy
REGULAR MEETING
will be approximately $2,265,174.00.
Dated this 24 day of February, 1962.
