NEMETH, Mayor COUNTY-CITY BUILDING SOUTH BEND, INDIANA 46601 Members of the Common Council 4th Floor Council Chambers County City Building South Bend, Indiana 46601 Dear Council Members: March 8, 1978 00-UT/0*4 UJI //VDIMAN 219/284-9742 There will be presented to the Common Council, for first reading on March 13, 1978, an ordinance appropriating the amount of $58,431.00 from General Revenue Sharing. This appropriation is for the purchase of twelve vehicles for the Detective Bureau of the South Bend Police Department. Although the Board of Works advertised for bids for forty-two police vehicles, which included thirty uniform cars, because the bids were higher than originally anticipated, and budget constraints, it is now our decision to not award bids on the uniform cars at this time. It is our anticipation that we will be able to maintain the thirty uniform vehicles for at least another six to eight months, at which time we will draw up specifications and rebid those vehicles. Please keep in mind that the Board of Works has awarded this bid to Don Medow subject to the approval of financing by the Council. Your favorable consideration of this request will be appreciated. Should you have any further questions please feel free to contact me.
