South Bend Redevelopment Commission <br />Regular Meeting —March 8, 2011 <br />nearby. Mr. Gibney responded yes, that the <br />City of Elkhart does decks which are less <br />expensive and people have a greater sense of <br />safety. Decks double the number of cars <br />accommodated over surface parking. A deck <br />would be provide room for about 140 cars <br />which is a lot more than the number of rooms <br />that would be developed there. We are open <br />to the conversation about a deck without <br />store fronts. Parking is needed. The <br />difference between most other parking <br />garages in town and a deck is that a deck <br />would not have a roof. Cost for development <br />per space is significantly less and in Elkhart <br />on smaller sites there are series of decks and <br />people do like them. They are attractive and <br />people feel safer than being on a third or <br />fourth floor because decks are open to the air. <br />It could save money and probably provide <br />income. <br />Upon a motion by Mr. Downes, seconded by <br />Mr. Varner and unanimously carried, the <br />Commission accepted the proposal from <br />Morris & Sons for roof repair at the LaSalle <br />Hotel. approved maintenance for roof repair <br />in the amount of $675 and $1370 for the <br />carpet repair at the LaSalle Hotel. <br />(2) Ratification of maintenance services at <br />LaSalle Hotel. <br />Upon a motion by Mr. Downes, seconded by <br />Mr. Varner and unanimously carried, the <br />Commission ratified maintenances at the <br />LaSalle Hotel. <br />(3) Proposal for environmental assessment <br />and engineering services.
