South Bend Redevelopment Commission <br />Regular Meeting -March 3, 2006 <br />6. NEW BUSINESS (CONT.) <br />A. South Bend Central Development Area <br />(} continued... <br />Mr. King thanked Mr. Phair and Mr. Perri for <br />their time and thoughtful answers. The <br />answers were very helpful in clarifying the <br />questions the Commissioners and staff had <br />after reviewing the Ralph Jones Drive <br />Partnership's proposal for the Rink site. Mr. <br />King asked if Mr. Phair had anything he <br />wanted to add that he thought had not been <br />expressed. <br />Mr. Phair said he wished the Commissioners <br />could review booklet prepared following the <br />Portage Prairie charrette. He has given Ms. <br />Laurent the remaining two extra copies he <br />had. Ms. Laurent indicated she will see that <br />the Commissioners are offered a copy. <br />Mr. Perri stated that he appreciated the <br />opportunity for give-and-take. It enabled <br />them to give thoughtful consideration to the <br />significant questions brought up by the <br />Commission. <br />Mr. Phair asked what the Commission's time <br />line is for awarding the Rink Riverside site. <br />Commissioners agreed that they did not want <br />the process to drag. Mr. Phair noted that the <br />new owners of the Commerce Center are not <br />local. He suggested it might be a good idea <br />if staff made arrangements to meet with them <br />some time when they are to be in town to <br />discuss their needs, especially for a parking <br />garage. <br />33 <br />
