The Common Council of the City of South Bend, hereby approves a <br />petition for an excess levy of three cents per one hundred dollars of assessed <br />valuation as permitted pursuant to I.C. 6 -1.1- 18.5 -13. <br />SECTION II. This resolution shall be in full force and effect from and after <br />its adoption by the common council and approval by the Mayor. <br />/S/ John Voorde <br />Member of the Common Council <br />A public hearing was held on the resolution at this time. Michael Vance, 1310 <br />Mishawaka Ave., (Council's appointment to the TRANSPO Board) indicated the bus <br />company has experienced a reduction in ridership as well as a decrease in federal <br />funding in recent years. He indicated that the Board passed a deficit budget for <br />1988 in anticipation of the tax rate increase being approved. He indicated that the <br />tax rate of 3 cents per $100 of assessed valuation will apply in both South Bend and <br />Mishawaka. He indicated that this will have to go to the State Board of Tax <br />Commissioners for their approval. Joseph Guentert, 3510 Corby, spoke against this <br />resolution. Council Member Beck made a motion to adopt the resolution, seconded by <br />Council Member Taylor. The resolution was adopted by a roll call vote of six ayes <br />and two nays (Council Members Zakrzewski and Barcome.) <br />BILLS, FIRST READING <br />
