REGULAR MEETING NOVEMBER 25, 2013 <br /> BILL NO. 66-13 PUBLIC HEARING ON A BILL OF THE COMMON <br /> COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF SOUTH BEND, INDIANA, <br /> AMENDING CHAPTER 2, ARTICLE 8, SECTION 2-121 <br /> (a) OF THE SOUTH BEND MUNICIPAL CODE TO <br /> REINSTATE ONE NON-DESIGNATED HOLIDAY <br /> Councilmember Dr. David Varner, Chairperson, Personnel & Finance Committee, reported that <br /> this committee held a Public Hearing on this bill this afternoon and voted to send it to the full <br /> Council with a favorable recommendation. <br /> Mark Neal, City Controller, 12th Floor County-City Building, 227 W. Jefferson Blvd., South <br /> Bend, Indiana, made the presentation for this bill. <br /> Mr. Neal advised that this bill would amend the South Bend Municipal Code pertaining to <br /> holidays for officers and employees of the City of South Bend. He stated that on December 10, <br /> 2012, the South Bend Common Council passed Ordinance No. 10211-12 which recognized Rev. <br /> Martin Luther King's birthday as a designated holiday for City officers and employees. This <br /> increased the number of designated holidays from nine to ten, and eliminated one-non- <br /> designated holiday. The municipal code was amended accordingly. Mr. Neal stated that at this <br /> time, to increase morale and better accommodate persons of all religions, Good Friday will be <br /> eliminated as a designated holiday to be replaced by one non-designated holiday which can be <br /> any day selected by each City officer or employee. This necessitates another amendment to the <br /> Municipal Code, which will now provide for nine (9) designated holidays and one non- <br /> designated holiday of each officer or employee's choice. He asked the Council for their <br /> favorable consideration. <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 /> 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 Schey seconded the motion which carried by a voice vote <br /> of eight (8) ayes. <br /> BILL NO. 60-13 PUBLIC HEARING ON A BILL OF THE COMMON <br /> COUNCIL FOR THE CITY OF SOUTH BEND, <br /> INDIANA, APPROPRIATING $21,000.00 FROM THE <br /> PALAIS ROYALE HISTORIC PRESERVATION FUND <br /> (FUND 450) FOR REPAIRS TO THE HISTORIC <br /> EXTERIOR/INTERIOR OF THE VENUE <br /> Councilmember Henry Davis Jr., Chairperson, PARCS Committee, reported that this committee <br /> held a meeting this afternoon and it was the consensus of the committee to send this bill to the <br /> full Council with a favorable recommendation. <br /> Dennis Andres, Executive Director, The Morris Performing Arts Center, 211 N. Michigan Street, <br /> South Bend, Indiana, made the presentation for this bill. <br /> Mr. Andres advised that this bill would appropriate $21,000.00 within the Palais Royale Historic <br /> Preservation Fund, Fund#450 to allow repairs to the historic tone work on the exterior of the <br /> Palais Royale building, and to reseal areas around existing windows, and to repair interior wall <br /> damage that was caused by water seeping into the building from around exterior historic stone <br /> work. Mr. Andres noted that the revenues for Fund#450 are generated from a 2% surcharge <br /> assessed on all services provided in connection with the use and rental of Palais Royal facilities. <br /> He asked the Council for their favorable consideration. <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 /> 17 <br />
