COUNTY-CITY BUILDING <br />227 W. JEFFERSON BOULEVARD <br />SOUTH BEND, IN 46601 <br />CITY OF SOUTH BEND STEPHEN J. LUECKE, MAYOR <br />OFFICE OF ADMINISTRATION & FINANCE <br />GREGG D. ZIENTARA, CITY CONTROLLER <br />July 21, 2010 <br />Mr. Derek Dieter <br />President, South Bend Common Council <br />4~h Floor, County-City Building <br />South Bend, IN 46601 <br />PHONE 574-235-9216 <br />FAx 574-235-9928 <br />Re: Ordinance Approving Temporary Loan of $39,763.60 from Economic Development Income Tax <br />Fund (#408) to allow Redevelopment Commission Acquisition of 25 Tax Sale Properties by the <br />South Bend Redevelopment Commission TIF Airport Fund (#324) <br />Dear President Dieter: <br />The Saint Joseph County Treasurer recently offered for sale a number of real estate properties on its tax <br />sale list which, upon acquisition by the City Redevelopment Commission, are beneficial to the City's <br />economic development projects in Ignition Park. The properties offered for sale of City interest, included <br />25 properties on Indiana Avenue adjacent to the south boundary of Ignition Park. The City through the <br />Redevelopment Commission was able to acquire these properties at a total cost of $39,973.60, an <br />average of $1,598.94 per property. Acquisition of these properties through the tax sale is estimated to <br />save the Redevelopment Commission and the City $630,000 versus acquisition of these properties on the <br />open market. <br />At the time of the tax sale, the subject properties were not on the South Bend Redevelopment <br />Commission 2010 property acquisition list, and could not be added to the South Bend Redevelopment <br />Commission 2010 property acquisition list within the time frame prior to the property tax sale, <br />necessitating the temporary use of monies from the City Economic Development Income Tax Fund (#408) <br />in the aforementioned sum to secure the property acquisition, which is authorized by I.C. 36-1-8-4. <br />The sum of $39,973.60 was temporarily transferred by EDIT Fund (#408) to the TIF Airport Fund (#324) <br />to secure the purchase. <br />The South Bend Redevelopment Commission has subsequently approved the subject properties and <br />added these to the 2010 property acquisition list, and has repaid the temporary loan to the EDIT Fund <br />(#408). <br />At the time of the initial transaction, the City approach was to transfer monies between funds, subject to <br />repayment which would not require ordinance approval by the Common Council. Subsequent to the <br />event, the City was advised by the State Board of Accounts, that the proper temporary loan transaction <br />did in fact require ordinance approval by the Common Council. <br />As such, this ordinance is submitted for Common Council approval. <br />This ordinance to the Common Council at its Committee meeting and at the public hearing will be <br />
