<br />Dear Mr. King:
<br />The staff of the Area Plan Commission has reviewed the proposal for J. E.
<br />Walz. Inc. at 3423 South Michigan Street and find it to be consistent with the
<br />Comprehensive Development Plan for the South Bend area. The area in question
<br />is properly zoned.

<br />A public hearing was held on the resolution. Mr. Kenneth Fedder, Attorney for the Economic
<br />Development Commission, explained that J. E. Walz, Inc. a local business, suffered the loss of
<br />their building in a recent fire. They would like to reconstruct the building and are asking for
<br />approval of a bond issue of $300,000 to do this. The building would in no way affect any public
<br />facilities in the city. It would provide for an additional 10 to 15 employees. They have been
<br />in business in South Bend for 60 years and are a landmark in the area of merchandising.
<br />Councilman Parent made a motion that the resolution be adopted, seconded by Councilman Taylor.
<br />The resolution was adopted by a roll call vote of nine ayes (Councilmen Serge, Szymkowiak,
<br />Miller, Parent, Taylor, Kopczynski, Horvath, Newburn and Nemeth).
