to,E-J- <br />�T <br />Department of <br />Community Investment <br />Memorandum <br />June 21, 2013 <br />TO: Redevelopment Commission <br />FROM: Jitin Kain -*� <br />SUBJECT: Addendum to Master Agency Agreement- Hill St. Improvements <br />Attached to this memorandum is Resolution 3146 and Addendum to the Master Agency Agreement <br />(Hill St. Improvement Project) which authorizes the Board of Public Works to act as the Commission's <br />agent and sets the budget for the improvements. <br />South Bend Heritage Foundation is in the process of constructing 13 single family homes on vacant <br />lots on Hill St. between Crescent and Corby. Currently these lots are a detriment to the neighborhood <br />and add to the perception of crime and safety. <br />The estimate for improvements provided by the South Bend Heritage Foundation covers replacement <br />of substandard curb, sidewalk, alley paving, and ADA corners along Hill St. between Crescent and <br />Corby. Curb, sidewalk, and alley curb cuts that are new or in otherwise good condition are to remain <br />in place. The estimate also includes the cost to prepare construction and public bidding documents. <br />The total project budget for the improvements is $168,922. <br />A strong Hill Street will only strengthen the surrounding streets and encourage development on <br />adjacent private vacant lots and renovations to existing houses. Staff requests approval of the above <br />project budget from the NNDA TIF, Resolution 3146 and the Addendum to the Master Agency <br />Agreement (Hill St. Improvements). <br />227 W.
