The purpose of this staff report is to give an overview of the Commerce- <br />Lincolnway-Sheridan project and the current status of the work in Airport Industrial Parks 1 <br />& 2. <br />In 2003, the City began exploring ways to revitalize the industrial parks surrounding the <br />South Bend Regional Airport. The Airport Industrial Parks 1 and 2 developed southeast of <br />the airport and Parks 3 and 4 northeast of the airport had some vacancy issues, <br />infrastructure improvement needs, and some general coordination. As part of the work plan <br />that was developed, the City undertook several infrastructure projects including the <br />extension of Voorde Drive, intersection improvement of Bendix & Lathrop and Bendix & <br />Voorde. Additionally, there was a plan developed to extend Commerce Drive to Sheridan, <br />improve Sheridan Drive, and coordinate a master drainage plan at a new pond constructed <br />along Sheridan. <br />The two attached Resolutions and the related Addendums relate to the final elements of <br />this project. <br />Resolution 2685 is related to the extension of Commerce Drive into Sheridan. The project <br />has been designed, right of way and property has been acquired and the attached <br />professional services proposal will allow for the services related to the acquisition of three <br />temporary right of way easements for this project. The original project that this <br />Supplemental Agreement No. 3 will amend is originally dated October 10, 2004. The total <br />amount of professional services required in this proposal is $12,675.00. The proposal <br />amount only includes the professional services and does not include the actual cost of the <br />right of way needed to be acquired for this project. <br />Resolution 2686 is related to Sheridan Avenue Improvements and Drainage Improvements <br />at Lincoln Way West. The project has been designed, but the purpose of this proposal is to <br />get the necessary professional services to acquire all permanent and temporary right of way <br />for the project. There are 8 permanent takes and 32 temporary right of way easements that <br />What We Do Today Makes A Difference! <br />
