The resolution which was sent to the petitioner by the City <br />Clerk's office was numbered Resolution 4076 -10. In August of 2010, Bob Mathia did send a letter to the <br />petitioner referencing the necessity to file a Form 322 to insure that the petitioner would receive an <br />abatement but it was sent for Resolutions 4038 -10 and 4049 -10 which were for the project before <br />McCormick & Company, Inc. decided to upgrade their project. A form 322 was not sent out by Mr. Mathia <br />pertaining to Resolution 4076 -11. The filing deadline for Form 322 was May 15, 2013. The petitioner did <br />not file a Form 322. The petitioner maintains that they did not know they had to file a Form 322 for <br />Resolution 4076 -11. The company is requesting a resolution from the Common Council waiving the filing <br />date for the Deduction Application. A representative of the company will be available to meet with the <br />Committee on Monday, September 9, 2013. . <br />To accomplish this request, a tax abatement recipient must notify the Council in writing. Attached you will <br />find a letter from the company's representative, Deidre Cassidy, Director of State and Local tax, requesting <br />the waiver. <br />Should you or any of the other Council members have any questions concerning the report or need <br />additional information, please feel free to call me at 235 -9278. <br />Sincerely, 061�, E� 1 <br />Kathy Ha <br />Economic Development Specialist <br />Attachments <br />c: South Bend Common Council Members <br />Mayor Pete Buttigieg <br />Sco <br />PLANNING NEIGHBORHOOD ENGAGEMENT ECONOMIC RESOURCES <br />JITIN KAIN PAMELA C.
