South Bend Redevelopment Commission <br />Regular Me ting - February-lS, 1980 <br />7. PROGRESS REPORTS <br />c. Mrl Ellison continues... <br />of economic opportunities that could be <br />identified and linked to small and minority <br />entrepreneurs who might get involved in <br />business. The job targeting approach appears <br />to be a new federal issue which is going to <br />be with us for a while. It is becoming <br />clear that the private sector is beginning <br />to get invited into more partnership <br />arrangements across the spectrum. <br />With CETA, for instance, a private industry <br />co cil (PIC) has been created, and one of <br />our Commissioners is a member of South Bend's <br />PI'., The PIC is designed to facilitate on <br />th job training, the targeted job tax credit, <br />ani other incentives which are available to <br />the private sector to address the needs of <br />the economically disadvantaged. In any <br />event, the City made application to partici- <br />pate in the'demonstration program and although <br />we were not funded, we are starting the process <br />of implementing a job targeting program anyway. <br />There are several reasons for that.

There is a need <br />that we develop our own capabilities in <br />these areas and demonstrate a capacity to <br />target jobs as part of the negotiation <br />pr cess and also to target spin -off <br />business opportunities which may exist. <br />la result I am taking some initiative <br />atthe staff level to begin a process <br />developing this capacity. <br />d. NeW Staff <br />Ellison: To the extent which I have <br />tioned previously, I have added two <br />staff members to specifically address <br />se areas. We expect, as a result of <br />s to try to achieve some new progress <br />South Bend both from a job targeting <br />.business development standpoint, <br />Paul Falduto has been added as a job <br />geting specialist. <br />-16- <br />INTRODUCTION OF NEW <br />REDEVELOPMENT STAFF <br />AND THEIR ROLES IN <br />THE DEPARP ENT <br />
