The declaratory resolution of the RDC was <br /> sent to the St. Joseph County Area Plan Commission (APC) for an order approving the RDC's action. The APC's <br /> resolution is now submitted to the South Bend City Common Council for its approval. <br /> There are three (3)properties proposed to be added to the acquisition list. The properties are all within the <br /> Coveleski Park Planning Area. <br /> The subject properties are located on the northwest corner of Main Street and Western Avenue and are the <br /> present site of the Gates Automotive Used Car Sales Lot. The properties were acquired as part of the sixteen(16) <br /> parcel acquisition from GMS Realty. Because these parcels were not on the acquisition list at the time of purchase, <br /> the properties were donated to the Board of Public Works and this process of amending the plan is necessary to <br /> allow for the properties to be transferred to the Redevelopment Commission. <br /> Either Bill Schalliol or another staff member from the Division of Economic Development will present this <br /> Resolution to the Common Council. <br /> Thank you for your consideration- Filed in_Clerk'S Offk <br /> Sinc <br /> La ce J,Meteiver VOORDE <br /> istant Gity Attorney <br /> CiTY CLERK,$00TH MND,IN <br /> l <br /> 1400 County-City Building 227 West Jefferson Boulevard South Bend,Indiana 46601 <br /> Phone: 574.235.9241 Fax: 574.235.7670 <br />
