<br />for some of the picnic activities. As small children will be

<br />APPROVE REQUEST OF SOUTH BEND COMMUNITY SCHOOL CORPORATION TO
<br />LIFT "NO PARKING" BAN ON TWYCKENHAM AND WALL STREETS IN
<br />CONJUNCTION WITH PROGRAM AT ADAMS HIGH SCHOOL - JUNE 1, 1990
<br />Mr. William M. Przybysz, Principal, John Adams High School, 808
<br />South Twyckenham Drive, South Bend, Indiana, requested that the
<br />ban on "no parking" on Twyckenham Drive and Wall Street near John
<br />Adams High School, be lifted from 8:00 a.m. to 11:00 a.m. on
<br />Friday, June 1, 1990. Mr. Przybysz stated that the school is
<br />holding their Senior Honors Recognition Program and many parents
<br />will be attending. Mr. Leszczynski noted that the appropriate
<br />City departments and bureaus have reviewed this request and
<br />approval is recommended. Mr. Leszczynski therefore made a motion
<br />that the recommendation be accepted and the request be approved
<br />subject to the school notifying residents of the area affected by
<br />this action in advance of the event. Mrs. DeClercq seconded the
<br />motion which carried.
<br />RESCIND PRIOR DENIAL AND APPROVE PETITION FOR THE ESTABLISHMENT
<br />OF A RESTRICTED RESIDENTIAL PARKING ZONE - 500-600 BLOCKS OF E.
<br />EWING
<br />Mr. Leszczynski advised that Mr. Michael P. Meeks, Director,
<br />Division of Engineering, has advised that at the request of the
<br />Petitioners of the 500 & 600 blocks of Ewing Avenue, the Bureau
<br />of Traffic and Lighting reviewed their previous recommendation to
<br />deny the residential parking restriction. Mr. Meeks noted that
<br />the previous calculations were based on a twenty foot (20')
<br />parking space or approximately twenty-nine (29) spaces. Because
<br />of the practicality of parallel parking and the geometry of Ewing
<br />Avenue, only twenty-four (24) spaces can actually be provided.
<br />Using this new figure, a residential parking zone was warranted
<br />in seven (7) out of twelve (12) hours. With this in mind, it is
<br />now the recommendation to approve a restricted residential
<br />parking zone for the 500-600 blocks of Ewing Avenue. Therefore,
<br />Mrs. DeClercq made a motion that the prior denial be rescinded
<br />and the recommendation as submitted today be accepted and the
<br />Petition for the Establishment of a Restricted Residential
<br />Parking Zone in the 500-600 block of Ewing Avenue be approved.
<br />Ms. Humphreys seconded the motion which carried.
<br />AWARD BID - ONE (1) ATOMIC ABSORPTION/EMISSION SPECTROMETER
<br />In a letter to the Board, Dr. John J. Dillon, Director,
<br />Environmental Services, recommended that the Board award the bid
<br />of Perkin-Elmer Corporation, 9855 Crosspoint Blvd., Indianapolis,
<br />Indiana, in the amount of $42,290.00 for the above referred to
<br />equipment. Mr. Leszczynski advised that bids for this equipment
<br />were opened by the Board on May 7, 1990. Upon a motion made by
<br />Mrs. DeClercq, seconded by Ms. Humphreys and carried, the
<br />recommendation was accepted and the bid was awarded.
