VOORDE mama Mrs. Freda Noble, Clerk City Of South Bend South Bend, Indiana Dear Mrs. Noble: 1 am returning herewith Ordinance No. 4212 with my veto attached thereto. Attached herewith also is an explanatory letter with my reasons for my decision to veto this legislation. Will you transmit to the Common Council this reason for veto? Respectfully, Edward F. Voorde, Mayor EFV /ab FEB 4'58 Pm F I L E D CITY OF SOUTH BEND FREBA G NOBLE, CLERK oas..r.., y o _ ee9' EDWARD F. VOOB n MAYOR Common Council City of South Bend South Bend, Indiana CITY OF SOUTH BEND SOUTH BEND, INDIANA February 3, 1958 Attention: Mr. Stanley Korpal, President Members of the Common Counci I: The Common Council in its action on Ordinance No. 4212 did act within its statutory grants in regulating which. kind of vehicles should, or should not be permitted use of any of our city streets. Practically, however, it is my considered judgement that we have not sufficiently covered the problem of channeling an important factor of our economy. Certainly, the Council in its action, did not intend to constrict industry nor did it in any way have any so- called "blackmail" motive in its action. As I negate this legislative action, at the same time I am ordering the City Traffic Engineer to immediately call a conference of the truck industry and the Council Transportation Committee. This conference should, without emotion and without sentiment, but from a logical and practical standpoint, work out an overall Ordinance, and to submit it forthwith. Therefore, 1 am returning this Ordinance with my veto attached thereto. EFV /ab Respectfully yours, Edward F. Voorde, Mayor FEB 4 '58 PM 0: ;2 F I L E D i CITY OF SOUTH BEND FUCA G. NOBLE. CLERK
