On <br />October 10, 2017 Kite held an informational meeting at Innovation Park outlining the schedule <br />for the project with neighborhood residents. The University was in attendance and fully <br />supports Kite's plan. <br />Thank you in advance for supporting a project that will provide a lasting benefit to the City of <br />South Bend and the University of Notre Dame. <br />Sincerely, <br />/A - <br />Tim Sexton <br />Associate Vice President for Public Affairs <br />
