<br />South Bend Redevelopment Commission <br />Regular Meeting –April 9, 2010 <br /> <br />adjoining property, is anybody from the City <br />taking a look at the care that they take of the <br />current pond? It is ugly and polluted. I don’t <br />see how anybody can say that his value or <br />her value remain the same. His property <br />would go from like $150,000 to zero. Who <br />would want to live next to a sewage dump? It <br />is an eyesore, it is so nasty. <br /> <br />Mr. Ward <br />: I do know that it is a very <br />important thing to study. I know a person <br />who knows a property on U.S. 31, they paid <br />over $200,000 for it. The very first offer was <br />less than $200,000, then they came in with <br />eminent domain, and said you have to sell. <br />We’ll offer you $180,000, it was way less <br />than he paid for it. They gave an additional <br />$5,000, and this is… <br /> <br />Mrs. Jones <br />: This is the State. <br /> <br />Mr. Ward <br />: This is State. This has nothing to <br />do with the State? <br /> <br />Ms. Jones <br />: None. <br /> <br />Mr. Ward <br />: Eminent domain will never step <br />in? <br /> <br />Ms. Jones <br />: Right. We don’t have eminent <br />domain. The State has it for right of way for <br />the streets and things but we don’t. <br /> <br />Mr. Ward <br />: The State wasn’t offering him <br />the value—and he paid taxes for years. <br /> <br />Ms. Jones <br />: I am only familiar with the <br />regulations that we … <br /> <br />Mr. Ward <br />: They’re offering people I’m <br />sitting next to less money than it’s worth <br />to…than they had offered, on the same street. <br /> 30 <br /> <br />
