REGULAR MEETING DECEMBER 9, 2013 <br /> <br /> <br /> <br />the better off our community is going to be. Many successful communities, quality communities <br />in this country allow this sort of function and virtually every city in Europe, if anybody’s been <br />over there, they all do it everywhere. It is very high quality stuff and has done very, very well. <br />So the more energy downtown the better. Thank You. <br /> <br />There being no one else present wishing to speak to the Council either in favor of or in <br />opposition to this bill, Councilmember Dieter made a motion for favorable recommendation to <br />full Council concerning this bill as substituted. Councilmember Varner seconded the motion <br />which carried by a voice vote of eight (8) ayes. <br /> <br /> <br />BILL NO. 68-13 PUBLIC HEARING ON A BILL OF THE COMMON <br /> COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF SOUTH BEND, INDIANA, <br /> AMENDING CHAPTER 9, ARTICLE 5 OF THE SOUTH <br /> BEND MUNICIPAL CODE ADDRESSING <br /> HAZARDOUS MATERIALS AND TACTICAL RESCUE <br /> TEAM <br /> <br />Councilmember White, Chairperson, Health & Public Safety Committee, reported that this <br />committee held a Public Hearing on this bill this afternoon and sends it to the full Council with a <br />favorable recommendation. <br /> <br />Operations Chief Jim Lopez, 1222 S. Michigan Street, South Bend, Indiana, made the <br />presentation for this bill. <br /> <br />Chief Lopez advised that this bill would allow for the increase in user fees for both the <br />Hazardous Materials Team and the Tactical Rescue Team, which were originally established in <br />1998, and have never been adjusted. He stated that the user fees for both of these specialized <br />teams are requested to go from the basic fee of $2,400 to $3,000; with the per hourly rate after <br />four (4) hours of service requested to go from $660 to $825 per hour. Mileage for responses <br />outside of the City limits is also requested. So that the Common Council may be regularly <br />updated, quarterly reports from the Fire Department would also be submitted, detailing number <br />of runs by each team, amount billed, amount collected and other recommendations. He noted <br />that failure to pay for billed services with sixty days (6) of being invoiced as governed by state <br />law, as well as collection of attorney fees, have also been included. He asked the Council for <br />their favorable consideration. <br /> <br />This being the time heretofore set for the Public Hearing on the above bill, proponents and <br />opponents were given an opportunity to be heard. <br /> <br />There being no one present wishing to speak to the Council either in favor of or in opposition to <br />this bill, Councilmember Dieter made a motion for favorable recommendation to full Council <br />concerning this bill, Councilmember Oliver Davis seconded the motion which carried by a voice <br />vote of eight (8) ayes. <br /> <br /> <br />BILL NO. 69-13 PUBLIC HEARING ON A BILL OF THE COMMON <br /> COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF SOUTH BEND, INDIANA, <br /> AMENDING VARIOUS SECTIONS WITHIN CHAPTER <br /> 4, ARTICLE 4 OF THE SOUTH BEND MUNICIPAL <br /> CODE REQUIRING ELECTRONIC REPORTING OF <br /> TRANSACTIONS BY PRECIOUS METALS DEALERS <br /> REGULATED IN SECTION 4-44, BY SCRAP METAL <br /> DEALERS, JUNK DEALERS, VALUABLE METAL <br /> DEALERS AND RECYCLING OPERATIONS <br /> REGULATED BY SECTION 4-51 AND BY <br /> SECONDHAND STORES REGULATED IN SECTION 4- <br /> 53 <br /> <br />6 <br /> <br /> <br />
