REGULAR MEETING MARCH 24, 2014 Presenter (Office of City Controller) - We keep contract of the names. Presenter (Office of City Controller) - The $138 for the police grants, what is that? That's a grant that the police department has for the South Bend Street Corporation. I don't know all the details but we received the cash for 2013 but it's a passing grant that goes to the school corporations so we have to reimburse them for that. Councilmember Dieter- Is that for the resource officers or do you know? Presentation (City Controller) - Well to secure our schools grant. I don't know the exact specifics but I know the reimbursement goes to the schools. We received our money in late 2013. Councilmember Dieter - I'll find out from the police department, I've never heard of it. Dr. Ferlic- I just want to say that just because they decided to pay our debts this year, more than likely we paid our debts before that they were doing the city a favor now we're doing them a favor, so now we will renegotiate that contract, if they are consistently going uphill. Thank you we will now provide our guest an opportunity to those wishing to speak in favor of bill substitute 21 -14. Anyone wishing to speak in opposition to bill 21 -14. Resident of P.O. Box 10205- I'm not really in opposition, along with Mr. Dieter I was curious some of these questions should probably be answered before they make plans first, where the money comes from and if that public record so we can go on the website and look up and likely give some donations if they can't give that information to Mr. Dieter can the public be allowed to look at that? Presentation: (City Controller) Answer: With the donation that can be a public donation, we keep very specifics of different component of different donations. We provide a support annually and those we would be happy to submit. Councilmember Oliver Davis made a motion for favorable recommendation for Substitute bill 21 -14.
