South Bend Redevelopment Commission <br /> Regular Meeting—August 28, 2012 <br /> 2. NEW BUSINESS <br /> A. South Side Development Area <br /> (1) continued... <br /> acquisitions. For those reasons, he likes <br /> Option C. Mr. Durr responded that Option C <br /> certainly eliminates Fellows as a possible <br /> route. It would, however, require significant <br /> improvement of the Fellows and Ireland <br /> intersection. <br /> Ms. Jones then offered the opportunity for <br /> the public to be heard. Listed below are the <br /> sentiments that were expressed: <br /> • Ireland needs a left turn lane at <br /> Fellows. <br /> • Someone who doesn't live in the <br /> neighborhood, but who makes the <br /> commute from North Liberty to <br /> Michigan Street daily thought round <br /> abouts at the critical intersections <br /> would take care of all the new traffic <br /> problems. <br /> • Why three lanes between Walter and <br /> Barbie (Option B)? The affected <br /> resident would lose most of her front <br /> yard. Mr. Durr responded the <br /> projected traffic volume would <br /> require thee lanes, including a <br /> dedicated left turn lane. The woman <br /> asked if there would be much more <br /> traffic then there is at present. Only <br /> the few people who live on Walter <br /> would be affected by the property <br /> acquisition for three lanes. <br /> • All options would require this <br /> person's property, so she favors none <br /> of them. <br /> • Concerns about the loss of tax <br /> 9 <br />
