South Bend edevelopment Commission <br />Regular Mee ing - July 11, 1980 <br />6. NEW BUSINESS <br />f. contlinued..... <br />Mr. Ellison: That is correct. If <br />you look at it that way, we need the <br />additional $100,000 because we are <br />not near the magic number yet. The <br />other thing Mr. Cira, is that Mayor <br />Nemeth had an architect selection <br />cormittee, and that committee <br />recommended to the Mayor the <br />selection of Gruen after <br />a n ber of other architects were inter- <br />viewed. That was based in part on Gruen's <br />previous experience and commitment to <br />dow towns and also their experience <br />witl retail centers. It also had to <br />do with the fact that Gruen had done <br />son exciting designs. <br />Mr. Hill: Gruen is well out of the study <br />phase because if you look at the attach- <br />ments in terms of their function, when <br />this phase is completed, they are very <br />close to the next stage which is then <br />putting together the drawings for <br />the construction people. They are <br />really bringing the project up to <br />that point and there is just some <br />har "nuts and bolts" architectural <br />wor to be performed under this phase. <br />Mr. Cira made a motion that the Executive <br />Director be authorized to execute a <br />contract for professional services with <br />Gruen Associates, Inc., in connection <br />with the Century Mall Project subject <br />to legal counsel review and approval, <br />sec nded by Mr. Robinson, and the motion <br />was unanimously carried. <br />Ms. Bat on: We have closed out Phase I <br />of our Ilan with LaSalle Park, and we will <br />begin P ase II on Monday, July 14, 1980. We <br />will then sell our 48 remaining lots for <br />$1.00 per lot. After the two week enrollment <br />period a drawing will be held (a time and <br />date will be set later). It will be similar <br />to the Homesteading Program where names will <br />be drawr. out of a. hat. <br />26 <br />COMISSION APPROVAL <br />GRANTED FOR A CONTRACT <br />FOR PROFESSIONAL SERVICES <br />WITH GRUEN ASSOCIATES <br />LASALLE PARK DISPOSITION <br />PLAN PAHSE II BEGINS <br />
