Kathy Cekanski Farrand: Kathy discussed the chronic nuisance properties. Keenan Lane of <br /> the South Bend Police Department investigates these properties, which become chronic nuisance <br /> properties after 3 calls in a 60 day period. He will also advise the homeowners if they aren't the <br /> occupants of the home. This is a very proactive and effective tool for residents and businesses <br /> and will be very positive. There should be something on the news about this in the next few <br /> weeks. She also thanked Tasha Reed Outlaw and the SBPD for their involvement with this. <br /> Kathy also mentioned working closer with Santiago Garces to make the CCAC known and hope <br /> to involve more members before fall. <br /> Gavin Ferlic: Council Member Gavin Ferlic indicates that the student survey did not have a <br /> great response. He would like to see 3500 or more. He reminded everyone in the areas of <br /> education and safety to do all that you can do and to remind students to be respectful also. He <br /> also congratulated the seniors, Molly and Maureen, and wished them well. He asked them if <br /> they would still be participating in the CCAC and they indicated they would have new students <br /> to take their places. <br /> Robinson Center: Communiversity Day went well. They raised about $20,000 from <br /> Homeward Bound which will be used to support local agencies for homelessness. They <br /> currently have about 250 students who work with the Parks Department and other City <br /> Departments for projects. <br /> Bridge Project: They would like to build long term relationships with the City through <br /> internships. There will be an App for Smartphones for this project. The goal is to encourage <br /> students to stay in South Bend after they graduate. To do this there needs to be entertainment <br /> and jobs! This project is to encourage students to visit multiple venues for social experiences. <br /> Students can use the App to note their experiences...there will also be incentives for this. There <br /> are individual events and also 4 events for everyone to do together for the interaction. <br /> Council Member Gavin Ferlic made motion that the City Law Department and Office of the City <br /> Clerk would serve as the CCAC Recording Secretary. The motion was seconded and carried. <br /> The next CCAC meeting was tentatively scheduled for Wednesday, September 3, 2014 at 3:30 <br /> p.m. <br /> Council Member Gavin Ferlic thanked everyone again for their input and involvement and <br /> adjourned the meeting at 4:20 p.m. <br /> Tasha Reed Outlaw - Recording Secretary Council Member Gavin Ferlic- Chairperson <br /> Community/Campus Advisory Coalition (CCAC) Community/Campus Advisory Coalition (CCAC) <br /> 3 <br />
