South Bend Redevelopment Commission <br />A"'l-scheduled Regular Meeting - January 4, 1995 <br />6. NEW BUSEWESS (Cont.) <br />a. continued... <br />based on two appraisals. If, for example, <br />your property is worth $10,000, you <br />couldn't just say, "I want $100,000 for my <br />property. " You have to have some basis for <br />why you think your property is worth <br />$100,000. It would be up to you, if you <br />make a counter offer, to say why you <br />believe that is a reasonable counter offer. <br />The staff will try to negotiate with all of the <br />property owners one on one and will <br />proceed as rapidly as we can. The offer <br />says that after thirty days we could go to <br />condemnation. We won't go to <br />condemnation if we are negotiating with <br />you. We will try to work it out, even if it <br />goes more than thirty days. I think in the <br />past we have gone substantially longer than <br />thirty days before we have ever filed a <br />condemnation. If we can work something <br />out, it's to all of our advantages to do so. <br />Sometimes people want to see the whole <br />package (purchase and relocation benefits) <br />together so they know what they have to <br />work with. We would just work with you <br />on as expeditious a schedule as we can. <br />RUSS SOZNOSKY: I five in the 700 block of <br />Wenger Street. I don't know about the rest <br />of the people here, but I took a lot longer <br />than thirty days in finding my house now. <br />You're saying you've got thirty days.... <br />MRS. KOLATA: No, I'm saying the purchase <br />offer says thirty days. That isn't when you <br />have to move. What we want to do is <br />negotiate with you within a thirty-day period <br />
