South Bend Redevelopment Commission <br />Regular Meeting —May 7, 2004 <br />6. NEW BUSINESS <br />A. South Bend Central Development Area <br />(3) Commission approval requested for <br />Resolution No. 2055 adopting certain <br />findings related to property located at <br />305 East Colfax Street and approving the <br />temporary use of 305 East Colfax Street <br />by East Race Fire Arts, LLC. <br />Mr. Mathia requested that, due to its length, <br />the staff report relating to Resolution <br />No. 2055 be incorporated into the minutes <br />and highlighted the report as follows: <br />An artists group, East Race Fire Arts <br />(ERFA), has requested temporary use of the <br />property located at 305 East Colfax Street <br />(commonly known as the PAC Building) <br />which the Commission acquired in 2003. It <br />is the Commission's intent to demolish the <br />building and construct a parking facility that <br />would complement Holladay Corporation's <br />planned development on the old Wharf site. <br />In the interim, some of the benefits of <br />allowing use of the PAC Building by ERFA <br />would be postponed demolition, <br />maintenance of the property and building, <br />and added vitality to the area. Staff <br />recommends approving the temporary use of <br />the property by East Race Fire Arts, a <br />subsidiary of Sculptural Arts, LLC. <br />Ms. Greene advised that because of the <br />unusual circumstances being asked of the <br />Commission with respect to Commission <br />owned property, Resolution No. 2055 has <br />been prepared which adopts certain findings <br />related to the temporary use of the building <br />7 <br />
