South Bend Redevelopment Commission <br /> Regular Meeting—October 11, 2011 <br /> 6. NEW BUSINESS (CONT.) <br /> B. Airport Economic Development Area <br /> (1) continued... <br /> Ms. Hathaway noted that on July 26, 2011, <br /> the Commission approved the BSA proposal <br /> for development of Ignition Park's Phase I <br /> construction documentation to provide road <br /> access and utilities to Lot#4, enabling Data <br /> Realty to construct its 50,000 sq. ft. building <br /> in 2012. She showed a rendering of the <br /> park's streets with a circle road at the center, <br /> around a development lot and retention pond, <br /> access roads to that circle from each side <br /> street, and an access road concentric to the <br /> circle which would be constructed later <br /> behind development. <br /> Phase IA is only the first step in the <br /> development of Ignition Park. Construction <br /> documents for the entire park are required to <br /> define the roadways and utilities, including <br /> pedestrian green boulevards, canals and a <br /> retention basin. The full build-out of the <br /> ecosystem components of the Master Plan <br /> (grey water reuse, energy center, solar& <br /> wind) will be implemented in phases as the <br /> products selected and the overall systems are <br /> deemed sufficiently tested, maintainable, cost <br /> effective, and when they provide added value <br /> to the city and park tenants. <br /> Phase 1B provides for development of the <br /> entire Certified Technology Park's 84 acres, <br /> minus the road designed to access buildings <br /> between Sample and the circle, as well as <br /> widening of Cotter and Scott. Phase 1B <br /> includes design of the ecosystem rainwater <br /> harvesting system with boulevard rain <br /> gardens to the north and east, pedestrian <br /> 10 <br />
