Mr. Roger Parent, President

South Bend, Indiana
Dear Mr. Parent:
The Department of Public Parks is requesting the Common Council to
approve an ordinance to appropriate $111,000.00 from the General
Park Fund to various accounts in the park maintenance budget.
Major increases are for insurance $32,000.00 caused by higher than
anticipated insurance premiums; $20,000.00 for a much needed garbage
compactor.
The Park Department is presently using dump trucks which are very
difficult to load and have no permanent cover over the garbage and
trash. Ten thousand dollars for increased electrical current caused
by underbudgeting.
The shortages in the other accounts were caused by increased costs
and underbudgeting in the 1978 budget.
There is a surplus in the General Park Fund because of savings in the
1977 budget (over $98,000.00) and higher than anticipated revenue
from our park and recreation facilities, thus, leaving a balance to
start January 1, 1978 of approximately $141,000.00.
Very truly yours,
