South Bend Redevelopment Commission <br />Regular Meeting -August 6, 2010 <br />6. NEW BUSINESS (CONT.) <br />D. South Side Development Area <br />(1) continued... <br />Mr. Schalliol noted that staff solicited a <br />proposal from Lawson-Fisher Associates to <br />provide engineering services for an access <br />study for Norman Street at South Michigan <br />Street. Several years ago the city made <br />improvements to Michigan Street between <br />the bypass and Chippewa. That work <br />included anon-mountable median at Ireland. <br />That median seems to have created a traffic <br />hazard as southbound traffic wants to turn <br />into the new Culvers. The purpose of the <br />proposal is to study traffic patterns at and <br />around the intersection and to make a <br />deternlination as to whether the lane <br />restrictions made on South Michigan Street <br />can be modified to provide safer access to <br />Norman Street. hnproved access to Norman <br />Sheet would help Culver"s Restaurant <br />currently located at the intersection as well as <br />improve the developability of the land to the <br />north of Norman Street. <br />The proposal is a not to exceed amount of <br />52,500.00. Staff requests favorable approval <br />of this proposal. <br />Upon a motion by Mr. Downes, seconded by <br />Mr. Alford and unanimously carried, the <br />Commission accepted the proposal from <br />Lawson-Fisher Associates for the scope of <br />services proposed and an amount not to <br />exceed 52,500. <br />(2) Resolution No. 2709 approving and <br />accepting a counter offer for propert~~ <br />located at 748 Hawbaker Street (Vacant <br />house) <br />25 <br />COMMISSION ACCEPTED THE PROPOSAL FROM <br />LAWSON-FISHER ASSOCIATES FOR THE SCOPE OF <br />SERVICES PROPOSED AND AN AMOUNT NOT TO <br />EXCEED $2,500 <br />
