South Bend Redevelopment Commission <br /> Regular Meeting—September 27, 2011 <br /> 6. NEW BUSINESS (CONT.) <br /> B. South Bend Central Development Area <br /> (2) continued... <br /> proposal is intended to get us to a point <br /> where we can better understand the total cost <br /> and to see how it fits into the downtown <br /> budget.

The former Transpo site <br /> is roughly ten acres in size and offers a <br /> unique opportunity for redevelopment in <br /> such close proximity to downtown. The <br /> Howard park Neighborhood Master Plan (or <br /> East Bank Village—Phase II) proposes new <br /> single and multi-family development on the <br /> Transpo site. That plan was created with <br /> feedback from community stakeholders, <br /> including East Bank Village businesses and <br /> residents. <br /> Of the ten acre Transpo site, 5.5 acres lie <br /> within the South Bend Central Development <br /> Area (SBCDA) while 4.33 acres lie outside <br /> 8 <br />
