South Bend Redevelopment Commission <br />Regular Meeting –August 6, 2010 <br /> <br />6. NEW BUSINESS (CONT.) <br /> <br />D. South Side Development Area <br /> <br />(1) continued… <br /> <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 a non-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 />determination as to whether the lane <br />restrictions made on South Michigan Street <br />can be modified to provide safer access to <br />Norman Street. Improved access to Norman <br />Street 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 /> <br />The proposal is a not to exceed amount of <br />$2,500.00. Staff requests favorable approval <br />of this proposal. <br /> <br />C <br />Upon a motion by Mr. Downes, seconded by <br />OMMISSION ACCEPTED THE PROPOSAL FROM <br />L-FA <br />AWSONISHER SSOCIATES FOR THE SCOPE OF <br />Mr. Alford and unanimously carried, the <br />SERVICES PROPOSED AND AN AMOUNT NOT TO <br />Commission accepted the proposal from <br />$2,500 <br />EXCEED <br />Lawson-Fisher Associates for the scope of <br />services proposed and an amount not to <br />exceed $2,500. <br /> <br /> <br />(2) Resolution No. 2709 approving and <br />accepting a counter offer for property <br />located at 748 Hawbaker Street.
