South Bend Redevelopment Commission <br />Regular Meeting — October 3, 2003 <br />6. NEW BUSINESS <br />A. Public Hearings <br />(5) continued... <br />Studebaker Museum site to the South Bend <br />Central Development Area. The project <br />financing can then come from the South <br />Bend Central Development Area TIF <br />program and bond issue. Originally, the <br />museum was going to be built on its current <br />site. The decision was made to put the two <br />museums side by side resulting in certain <br />economies of scale in terms of reducing <br />maintenance staff, joint exhibits and other <br />functions of the museums. Staff supports <br />and recommends moving the current <br />museum to the proposed site. <br />Mr. Rock noted that the Public Hearing file <br />was complete and requested the following <br />items be entered into the record: (1) Copy of <br />the Notice of Hearing; (2) Copy of <br />Resolution No. 2001; (3) Affidavits from the <br />Tri County News and South Bend Tribune <br />that the Notice of Public Hearing was <br />published in those newspapers on <br />September 19, 2003; (4) Statement from <br />staff that affected property owners, <br />registered neighborhood associations and <br />government units were notified; and (5) As <br />of 10:00 a.m. this morning, no written <br />remonstrances were received. <br />Mr. Mathia noted that the expansion area <br />was determined to be a blighted under the <br />West Washington- Chapin Development <br />Area and is still considered blighted under <br />the South Bend Central Development Area. <br />
