South Bend <br />Regular Meg <br />elopment commission <br />- October 26, 1990 <br />6. NEW BUSMS (Cont.) <br />a. conitinuect... <br />yard and equipment storage, and a <br />building also was constructed on Block 3, <br />Parcel 17, for vehicle, equipment and <br />inventory storage. Substitute Resolution <br />No. 962 amends the Studebaker Corridor <br />Dev lopment Plan by adding these parcels <br />use by the Company for yard and <br />equipment storage, as well as vehicles <br />and inventory storage. <br />This letter is being written on behalf of <br />Ben V oLkowski and 2iolkowski <br />Construction Company as their written <br />objection to the adding of the above <br />numbered parcels to the Studebaker <br />Corridor Development Plan. The <br />objections are as follows. <br />l) Since the early 1980's, the Company <br />has purchased the parcels involved in the <br />Substitute Resolution, many parcels of <br />which were in a blighted condition, and <br />has spent considerable monies to upgrade <br />these parcels. The incorporation of <br />these parcels in the Development Plan <br />would have a severe economic impact on <br />the existing construction business. <br />2) The Company presently employs <br />approximately 250 people, with an <br />estimated weekly payroll of $125,000. <br />The incorporation of these parcels, which <br />are an integral part of the Company <br />operation, could result in a loss of <br />employment, and even have a direct impact <br />on the future of the Company's <br />construction operation. <br />3) The parcels of land sought to be <br />adde to the Development Plan are not <br />blig ted areas within the meaning of <br />36- 7.14 -1, et. seq. <br />I.C. <br />-7- <br />
