<br />Member of the Common Council
<br />A public hearing was held on the resolution at this time. Mr. Charles Lennon, Contract
<br />Administrator for the Civic Center Authority, indicated that the resolution was a requirement of
<br />the original ordinance passed by the Council appropriating money for the Civic Center project. He
<br />requested approval of the four contracts for soils investigation in the amount of $11,000, acousti
<br />consultant in the amount of $10,000, food facilities consultant in the amount of $5,280 and the
<br />survey in the amount of $1,500. He_indicated that this was not additional money being requested.
<br />Council President Nemeth wondered why the Board of Public Works was involved in approval of the
<br />contracts. Mr. Lennon stated that since the city would be receiving the responsibility of the sit
<br />construction, etc., it should be kept informed through the Board of Public Works. Council Preside
<br />Nemeth referred to the section in the resolution that authorization was given by the Civic Center
<br />Authority and Board of Public Works for the architectural firm to proceed. He wondered about the
<br />board's involvement in the contracts and stated that it had been intended the Civic Center Authori
<br />would handle all matters concerning the project. Mr. Lennon stated that the request had come from
<br />the Civic Center Authority to have the Board of Public Works involved in the contracts. Councilma
<br />Newburn wondered why one of the firms had been chosen from New York. Councilman Miller indicated
<br />that there had been no firms in South Bend that could handle the acoustics contract, and the
<br />architectural firm for the project was located in New York.
