South Bend Redevelopment Commission <br />Regular Meeting - June 18, 1993 <br />6. NEW BUSINESS (Cont.) <br />r. Commission approval requested for proposal <br />from John Bamber to research historical <br />records related to the Studebaker Corridor <br />Development Area. <br />Mrs. Kolata explained that Mr. Bamber has <br />proposed to go through all the old <br />documents, maps, etc., to determine potential <br />environmental situations might need to be <br />addressed in the future. He will perform the <br />research at a rate of $50.00 per hour for 80 <br />to 100 hours. He will report his findings to <br />the staff after each 10 hours of work. Mr. <br />Bamber did the research related to a cistern <br />that was found on the Avanti property. It <br />was very thorough and detailed and proved to <br />be vary valuable to us. It was because of <br />that research that we asked him for a <br />proposal for doing the research for the rest of <br />the Studebaker Corridor. <br />Mrs. Kolata noted that, although we had <br />preliminary research done in the Studebaker <br />Corridor, it was not as comprehensive as Mr. <br />Bamber is doing. He goes back to maps in <br />the 1800s and finds evidence of things that <br />did not show up on the later maps our other <br />consultants used. <br />Upon a motion by Mr. Piasecki, seconded by <br />Mr. Sharp and unanimously carried, the <br />Commission approved the proposal from John <br />Bamber to research historical records related <br />to the Studebaker Corridor Development <br />Area. <br />-16- <br />COMMISSION APPROVED THE PROPOSAL <br />FROM JOHN BAMBER TO RESEARCH <br />HISTORICAL RECORDS RELATED TO THE <br />STUDEBAKER CORRIDOR DEVELOPMENT <br />AREA <br />
