South Bend Redevelopment Commission <br />Regular Meeting - September 2, 1994 <br />6. NEW BUSINESS (Cont.) <br />a. continued... <br />parking. The spaces in the parking <br />easement are not necessary to meet any <br />parking requirements under the zoning <br />ordinance. <br />Ms. Auburn opened the Public Hearing for PUBLIC HEARING ON RESOLUTION NO. 1284 <br />whomever wished to speak. <br />MR. REAM: Our law firm represents Azar, <br />Inc. Inc. We filed a remonstrance this <br />morning. I'd like to add a couple of things, <br />besides letting the remonstrance speak for <br />itself. We've been working both with Rich <br />Arensen, The Alexander Company, and <br />Jenny Manier, City of South Bend, over the <br />last year. The negotiations have been on <br />and off. Our two primary concerns are <br />whether, in fact, the easement is necessary <br />for the development and whether the <br />development, at this point in time, now that <br />the property is owned by a private company <br />as opposed to the Redevelopment <br />Commission, whether this taking is going to <br />benefit the private company or a public <br />entity. The other thing we are very upset <br />about and need to talk to both The <br />Alexander Company and the City about, is <br />the fact that, for the last (maybe) 5 months, <br />there are workers out there who have <br />already destroyed our parking easement, as <br />if we had no rights to the property. This <br />puts us in a delicate position: we're trying <br />to work with the City, be cooperative, but at <br />the same time, we're placed in a position <br />that we, frankly, have a right to sue for <br />-12- <br />
