South Bend Redevelopment Commission <br />Regular Meeting - September 5, 1997 <br />6. NEW BUSINESS (CONT.) <br />b. continued.... <br />City Associates approved going ahead with <br />the Community Development Block Grant <br />contract. Amy Tweeten stated that Center <br />City Associates did approve going ahead <br />with the project contingent upon approval <br />of Mark Tamer's project by the <br />Redevelopment Commission. <br />Ms. Kolata stated that Center City <br />Associates applied for financing from the <br />City in 1997 to restore the west facade and <br />the roof of the building. The funds were <br />included in the 1997 Community <br />Development Block Grant budget so that <br />Center City Associates could have the work <br />completed. Center City Associates and <br />South Bend Heritage Foundation were <br />working together on that project. Earlier <br />this year, Center City Associates decided it <br />would not move forward with the contract <br />if the building wasn't viable. Since then, <br />we have received the proposal from Mark <br />Tamer and it seems the project is viable. <br />Ms. Kolata asked Amy Tweeten if the <br />$117,000 contract amount to fix the roof <br />and restore the north facade was correct. <br />Ms. Kolata stated that to her knowledge the <br />Community Development Block Grant <br />contract was for $100,000 to restore the <br />west facade and to fix the roof. Amy <br />Tweeten stated that the $117,000 includes <br />$7000 from the Revolving Loan Fund. She <br />also stated that the bids have come in and <br />the contractors can do the work for <br />$117,000. <br />H:\ HOME\ CPHIPPS \WPDATA \COMMSN\090597.MQQ -16- <br />
