Re: Community Project
Dear Council Members:
We are pleased to introduce the attached Resolution which supports the proposed installation of a fence
near Coquillard Park.
It showcases another community project to be built and constructed by volunteers. The project would use
absolutely no tax dollars. We believe that the volunteers and businesses donating their resources should
be commended for stepping up in making South Bend better because of their efforts.
We request that this Resolution be sent to the Parks Committee and have public hearing on March 14th
Most sincerely,
Council
