As a result of this <br />process, one of the two parcels to which the 2023 abatement applied was inadvertently <br />incorrect. The enclosed resolution will correct this error and apply the abatement to the proper <br />parcels, which are currently 722 and 726 Harrison Avenue. <br />The new single-family homes are part of a program run by Cross Community in support of first- <br />time homebuyers, who participate in financial and credit-building workshops. Cross Community <br />spent over$560,000 building the two homes and far exceeded the commitment associated with <br />the abatement. <br />If you or any of the other Council members have questions concerning the report or need <br />additional information, please feel free to call me at (574) 235-5838. <br />Sincerely, <br />L._. <br />Erik Glavich <br />Director, Growth and Opportunity <br />EXCELLENCE ACCOUNTABILITY INNOVATION INCLUSION EMPOWERMENT <br />14005 County-City Building 227 W.Jefferson Blvd. South Bend.Indiana 46601 p 574.235.9371 www.southbendin.gov <br />Bill No. 24-09
