REGULAR MEETING <br />FEBRUARY 10, 2014 <br />Council Member Gavin Ferlic- Community Investment sends 14 -11 to the full council for <br />favorable recommendation <br />Presentation: Eric Boyd- 1240 W Common Street- currently there is a firehouse that is out of <br />commission, 94 years old. There is old construction on the comer of Walnut and Thomas has <br />helped for several years, basically we are here to save it. Engineers came out and agreed that is <br />was salvageable to save the Landmark. <br />A Public Hearing was now held. <br />Those wishing to speak in favor: <br />Cecil Eastman- 57211 Peach Stone Ave.- I am happy to see this building what's left of it being <br />turned into something useful instead of what is now unfortunately just a pile of bricks. I tend to <br />ride past the building when I ride into town, it's in a beautiful old part of time that needs some <br />attention and that building with some attention would be a definite asset to that part of town. <br />There being no one present wishing to speak in opposition to this bill, Councilmember Schey <br />made a motion to move for the adoption of this resolution. Councilmember Scott seconded the <br />motion which carried and the resolution was adopted by a roll call vote of eight (8) ayes. <br />BILL NO. 14 -08 A RESOLUTION OF THE COMMON COUNCIL OF <br />THE CITY OF SOUTH BEND, INDIANA, ENDORSING <br />THE "SPRING FORWARD" — A COMMUNITY <br />BEAUTIFICATION INITIATIVE TO HELP DETER <br />BLIGHT, VANDALISM AND THEFT OF VACANT <br />AND ABANDONED BUILDINGS BY UTILIZATION <br />CREATIVE AND ARTISTIC BOARDING <br />IM <br />
