RE: Fencing for the Municipal Services Facility
Dear Councilmen:
The attached request for $20,000 of General Revenue Sharing Funds has
been requested for the purpose of installing perimeter fencing for the
yard and building areas surrounding the Municipal Services Facility.
This request is being made as a constructive step toward reducing
access to the city -owned property, thereby reducing the probability of
theft of gasoline and materials from the premises, vandalism to city
property, and at the same time providing an adequate and secure park-
ing area for the privately -owned vehicles so as to reduce, if not
eliminate, vandalism to said vehicles.
It should also be noted that a fence previously was in existence at
the east end of these properties, adjacent to the Newman- Altman property.
Said fence was removed during the demolition of the Studebaker Power
House and has not been replaced to this date. That firm has requested
that the City replace this segment of fence as soon as possible, in that
they have reported several incidents of theft which they feel have re-
sulted from the availability of ingress and egress to the property at
this time.
