South Bend R development Gc)mission <br />Regular Meeting July 11, 1980 <br />4. COMMUNI TIONS <br />b. Mrs. Kolata continues... <br />What they are concerned about is shortening <br />the ".ime period involved, however, they are <br />goin to wait until this petition has <br />fini hed its route. <br />Mr. imtz: With those comments, the Chair <br />will direct that the letter from Mr. John <br />Voor e be received and placed on file. <br />Mr. llison: Can the staff then presume <br />that in reviewing subsequent tax abatement <br />peti ions that we stick to the practice <br />from the initial ordinance? <br />Mr. imtz: Mr. Butler would you presume <br />that we follow the original ordinance re- <br />gard' g tax abatement petitions? <br />Mr. Butler: Yes. <br />Mr. Why should we have guidelines <br />to f �ira: <br />flow? <br />Mr. imtz: There is no use for us to try <br />to f llow the exact guidelines and have the <br />City Council to say they have different <br />idea 3. This is the reason I feel that if this <br />is g ing to be their desire we should tell them <br />that they should change the guidelines accordingly. <br />Mr. Butler: They are using the Redevelopment <br />Commission in an advisory capacity and of course <br />at tie meeting you may be spending approximately <br />ten Lo fifteen minutes on the matter. The staff <br />is sending a great deal of time in reviewing <br />the requests, so I feel it is important that the <br />staff know what those guidelines are. <br />Ms. rbeck: Are you changing your recommendation <br />sinco the City Council decided to change their ideas? <br />Mr, imtz: No. The request with Mossberg is <br />acad mic because we filed a staff report and the <br />City Council is proceeding with the tax abatement <br />reau st. <br />7 <br />LETTER FROM MR. <br />JOHN VOORDE WAS DIRECTED <br />TO BE RECEIVED AND <br />PLACED ON FILE (RE: <br />TAX ABATEMENT FOR <br />301 E. SAMPLE STREET) <br />
