Dear President Kelly:
The enclosed appropriation is being submitted as part of the Capital
Infusion Plan that was begun last August in order to ensure the long-term
success of the College Football Hall of Fame.
As you may recall, Ordinance No. 8711-96 that was passed on August
26, 1996, appropriated $500,000 to the Hall to help fund activities to
market and promote the College Football Hall of Fame. That appropriation
was matched by a similar contribution by the National Football
Foundation. Along with the 1997 appropriation that is contemplated by
the attached Ordinance, the National Football Foundation will also be
making another $500,000 investment.
The College Football Hall of Fame is, and will continue to be, a
unique and valuable asset for the City of South Bend and its citizens.
This appropriation will help to lay the foundation for its financial
success. We would be pleased to answer any questions that you or any
members of the Council may have and look forward to your action on this
appropriation.
