Mr. George Hull, Councilman
City of South Bend., Indiana
Dear Sir and Councilman:
.
Wish to ask you the favor of presenting before the city council the need of an electric street light in the vicinity
of College and Bergan Street intersection. Several minor accidents have occured here._as the streets are very dark,
and because College street has a. dead end at Bergan. We'd greatly appreciate your consideration, and obliged.
Sincerely yours

COMMUNICATION
City Clerk of South Bend,
Dear Sir:
River Park Civic Asso. Inc.
Mishawaka, Ave., -20th St.,
South Bend, Indiana
At a meeting August 19th of the River Park Civic Association Incorporated a resolution was adopted as follows: re-
solved that all vacant houses and shacks in River Park that have been condemned as being unfit for human occupancy
either be remodeled and put into livable condition or be torn down, thereby adding to the general appearance of the
community. A copy of this resolution be sent to the proper officials of the city of South Bend urging action be
taken at the and of the condemnation period.
The above resolution is aimed at certain property owners who have built or have rented buildings for living quarter
and who have not kept the same in a livable and presentable condition. The Association feels that it is unfair to
the property owners who keep their homes and yards in good condition to have these condemned shacks in their neigh-
borhood. Almost without exception the owners of the properties involved are not residents of. River Park and there-
fore care little about the beauty of our district.
HRH/da
Yours very respectfully,
THE RIVER PARK CIVIC ASSO. INC.
H. R. Humphrey
Councilman Bishop made a motion to have the communication referred to the Fire Department. Councilman Brannon

So. Bend City Council
So. Bend, Indiana.
Gentlemen:-
ST. JOSEPH COUNTY BUILDING TRADES COUNCIL
103 W. LaSalle Ave.
South Bend, Ind.
Aug. 23, 1940
At a regular meeting of the St. Joe Co. Bldg. Trades Council, August 23, the subject of a Housing Project for the
City of So. Bend was thoroughly discussed.
A Committee recently appointed to investigate the Housing problem in So. Bend, and the 'City was covered very thorou
ly, report vacant houses in every district, but very few for rent, and of these a very small number that would less
the problem of housing the class of families that are really in need.
Aside of the fact that a Housing Project will furnish employment to a number of the Mechanics now unemployed, and
the monies appropriated for these projects, will be used in other localities, if not used in the City of'So. Bend,
we feel that a building program of this nature, is far more essential than many of the other projects sponsored by
the Government.
Again the St. Joe. Co. Bldg. Trades, pledge their support, and with the cooperation of the City Council,.am sure that
enough support can be obtainedto put a project of this nature over, thereby relieving the housing difficulties, as
well as raising the living conditions of a great many of the people, who, as our Committee reports have lost their
self respect to a great extent, and if given a little lift, with a respectable place to call home, these same people
again will become good Citizens, and have something to look forward too.
Thanking you for your cooperation, and again assuring you the full support of the entire Bldg. Trades,Organization
in your task of looking after the welfare of the City of So. Bend, We remain yours to command.
Very truly,
EDWIN TURNOCK Pres.
L. SHANNON Seety.
Councilman Richardson made a motion that the communication be acepeted and placed on file. Councilman Niezgodski

ble when the property is properly zoned. That it believes said property should be zoned for "D" light industrial
ses"and "F" height and area.

IREPORT OF THE CITY TRAFFIC ENGINEER
To the Honorable Common Council,
City of South Bend, Indiana
Gentlemen:-
August 27 -1940
Re: Petition to the Common Council requesting the enactment of an Ordinance prohibiting parking for more that two
hours on each of the following streets, between the hours of 8:00 A.M. and 5:00 P.M. except Sundays:
Rogers, Longley and Westmore Streets between Goodland and Bendix. Goodland, between Rogers and Westmore.
I have investigated the condition in this vicinity and find conditions as stated in the petition. I doubt, however,
if establishment of time limit restrictions on these streets is the proper solution to the problem. The enactment
of an ordinance and the erection of signs giving notice of the regulation is only part of the procedure in successful
legislation and regulation.
A certain amount of enforcement of the regulations by the police department is necessary for complete success. We
have on file numerous requests and petitions for similar regulations at other locations in the city.
For example: Ewing Avenue opposite the Riley High School. Portage Avenue and other Streets in the vicinity of
Wards Bakery. Streets in t he vicinity of the Studebaker Corporation, and many streets immediately adjacent to the
central business district.
If the ordinance was enacted, signs erected and it were practical for the police department to enforce the regula-
tions on the streets mentioned in this petition, soon other petitions would be presented requesting similar regula-
lations on many other streets in the city where conditions are practically identical.
Obviously if this request is granted in this particular case, then similar requests will also have to be granted.
This type of regulation merely drives the all -day parkers from one street to another, which brings about similar
requests, from residents on the other streets.
The only possible solution in this particular case is for the Bendix Aviation Corporation to provide adequate off -
street parking facilities and encourage employees to use the parking space provided.
As to automobiles on these streets blocking private drives and alleys, this practice can be successfully discouraged
by proper enforcement of the existing law which prohibits same.
EHM:MB
Respectfully submitted,
ERNEST H. MILLER
City Traffic Engineer
Councilman Hull made a motion that the petition be referred to the Committee of the Whole for further investigation.
