These extensions would not alter the <br /> length of the abatement itself, however. It has been a general practice, when granting a tax <br /> abatement, to allow a two-year designation period for the project to get underway, be completed, <br /> and receive its higher reassessed value. The clock on the designation period starts when the I <br /> abatement is granted by Council. Sometimes a project takes a bit longer to get underway and/or <br /> be completed, and sometimes the Assessor's office does not issue the reassessed value (and <br /> accompanying Form 11)within the two-year timeframe. For these situations(detailed below) the <br /> petitioners are asking Council to grant extensions of the designation period on the following tax <br /> abatements. <br /> I' <br /> Attached please find proposed forms of resolutions modifying and reconfirming the adoptions of <br /> declaratory resolutions for Historic JMS Building LLC,.JSK Development Inc.,RDistrict One <br /> LLC, Imagineering Enterprises Inc., Tower at Washington Square LLC which combined <br /> were granted a total of eleven real property tax abatements. <br /> - h <br /> DANIELJ.BUCKENmmm ALKEYNA ALDRIDGE PAMELA MEM Tm CORCORAN <br /> Busms DEvmommm ENGAGEMENT&Eco\,owe ETLPOWERMENT NEIGHBORHOOD DEVELDEWNT PLAATNING&C0MMUI nY RESOURCES <br /> EXCELLENCE I ACCOUNTABILITY I INNOVATION I INCLUSION I EMPOWERMENT ] <br /> 14005 County-City Building 1227 W.Jefferson Blvd.I South Bend,Indiana 466011 p 574.235.93711 www.southbendin.gov i <br />
