®CITY OF SOUTH BEND I OFFICE OF THE CLERK <br /> Committeemember Broden stated, Ok, good, thank you. I thought that was the case. Lastly, is <br /> anyone here to address the jobs or what this represents economically? <br /> Mr. McMorrow replied, Mr. Tamer is out of town tonight and he is better able to answer that than <br /> I. Clearly there will be new jobs. We are maintaining the South Bend Chocolate Factory. It is a <br /> growing business. We are then looking to attract other businesses into the project as well. <br /> Committee Chair Davis then opened the floor to members of the public wishing to speak in favor <br /> of or in opposition to the legislation. <br /> Sue Kesim, 4022 Kennedy Drive, stated, I am a citizen advocate. There has been some concern <br /> from the environmental groups about the special marsh and critical nature areas there. They want <br /> to know if you are going to require an environmental study and perhaps corner off some potentially <br /> sensitive environmental areas. <br /> Committee Chair Davis then gave the floor to the presenter for rebuttal and response. <br /> Mr. McMorrow replied, This is a petition not to build anything at this time so these are not permits <br /> for construction.Nevertheless, I would love to have your information about what you know about <br /> environmentally sensitive areas because it is our intention to design environmentally sensitive <br /> infrastructure. <br /> Committeemember Ferlic made a motion to send Bill No. 26-18 to the full Council with a favorable <br /> recommendation.
