South Bend Redevelopment Commission <br /> Regular Meeting—October 11, 2012 <br /> 6. NEW BUSINESS (CONT.) <br /> D. South Side Development Area <br /> There was no further business in the South Side Development Area. <br /> E. Northeast Neighborhood Development Area <br /> (1) Resolution No. 3075 approving and authorizing the execution <br /> of an Addendum to the Master Agency Agreement (Demolition <br /> of homes within AEP electric pole easement by realigned <br /> SR23) <br /> Ms. Maradik noted that the S.R. 23 realignment project is <br /> underway. As part of this project, high tension electric poles were <br /> planned along the south side of the street through the new <br /> intersection that will be created, instead of along the current 5- <br /> points intersection. The NNDA Plan amendment was completed <br /> on October 25, 2011, providing a vision for the redevelopment of <br /> the entire neighborhood and identifies the realigned 5-points <br /> intersection as an area with high potential for commercial <br /> development. <br /> The city's Department of Public Works has been working with <br /> AEP officials over the past several months to determine an <br /> alternate route so that the land immediately adjacent to the street is <br /> clear of these large overhead electric cables and maintains its <br /> development potential. A new route was recently determined <br /> which follows existing alleys, starting at the intersection of Duey <br /> and S.R. 23, proceeding south towards Corby and then west along <br /> the street. <br /> A total of eight homes need to be demolished in order to facilitate <br /> the AEP electric pole project this fall. Of these eight homes, Five <br /> Corners LLC is seeking assistance with the demolition of three, <br /> located at 1128 Corby, 1225 Corby and 1229 Corby. Demolition <br /> work will include demolition of the structures, clearing of trees <br /> within the AEP easement and environmental inspection and <br /> assessment with proper removal of asbestos, if found. The total <br /> cost of the demolition will not exceed $30,000. The remaining <br /> five homes will be demolished by Five Corners LLC. Staff <br /> requests approval of Resolution No. 3075 and its Addendum to <br /> Master Agency Agreement. <br />
