eCITY OF SOUTH BEND I OFFICE OF THE CLERK Councilmember Dr. David Varner asked, Is that the same Liability Fund of which settlements are paid? Ms. Hockenhull confirmed, Yes. Councilmember Dr. David Varner followed up, Is there a standard to that? Ms. Hockenhull replied, It has typically been $1 million and we allocate that across all the Departments. Councilmember Dr. David Varner then asked, And the $900,000 from the Fund is intented to reimburse that account or is there a use for this? Ms. Hockenhull replied, There is not a use for that right now. We are just simply trying to bring it to $1 million.

Committeemember Voorde seconded this motion which carried by a voice vote of four(4) ayes. Ms. Hockenhull stated, Before you is a bill for our Enterprise Fund. We are asking for $77,000 from our Parking Garage Fund to cover utilities that weren't originally budgeted for in our line- item budget. They were previously paid for from the block for block contract that we had so we are just asking to appropriate those. Our Water Works Operation and Maintenance Fund of $53,250 relates to the fact we have to transfer money from our Operating Fund to a Reserve Fund to keep up with our Bond Covenant requirements. That is simply transferring from one (1) Water Works Fund to another Water Works Fund. The last is the Century Center Capital Fund, we are asking to appropriate $20,000 just to spend down the SMG contribution that they gave us for capital back in 2013.
