South Bend Redevelopment Commission Regular Meeting —March 14, 2013 Mr. Kain noted that the Fellows Street Corridor Improvement Project — Supplement #5 authorizes the Board of Public Works to act as the Commission's agent for the project and sets the budget for right -of -way acquisition. The draft engineering plans for the Fellows Street intersection, sidewalk, and drainage improvements indicate the need for full acquisition of one property, partial acquisition along with additional construction easement /temporary right -of -way areas for three properties, and construction easements only for seven properties. The proposal from DLZ Indiana is for $135,990 to provide right -of -way acquisition services for these eleven properties. This proposal includes title abstracting, appraisals, transfer documents, negotiation, closing, relocation, title policy, recording, and related services. The preliminary estimates for actual acquisition total $165,000. The total project budget for acquisition is, therefore, $300,990. Staff requests approval of Resolution No. 3128 and a project budget of $300,990. Ms. Jones asked how many pieces of property will be acquired. Mr. Kam responded that there are four, one full acquisition and three partial acquisitions.
