Council Member Gavin Ferlic, Chairperson Community Investment Committee South Bend Common Council 4th Floor, County City Building South Bend, IN 46601 RE: Real Property Tax Abatement Petition for: The Tire Rack Dear Council Member Ferlic: PIiom : 574,235 -9371 Fax: 574,235-902 1 The Tire Rack was approved for a five year real property tax abatement on August 13, 2012 through resolution number 4198 -12. The filing deadline for Form 322 was May 10, 2013. The petitioner maintains that they were not aware that a Form 322 needed to be filed with the Auditor's Office at the completion of the project. The Department of Community Investment did mail the petitioner a Fonn 322 on July 9, 2012 but it must not have reached the proper destination. Consequently, the petitioner did not receive his abatement for the pay 2014 tax year. The company is requesting a resolution from the Common Council waiving the filing date for the Deduction Application. A representative of the company will be available to meet with the Committee on Tuesday, May 27, 2014. To accomplish this request, a tax abatement recipient must notify the Council in writing. Attached you will find a letter from the company's representative, Joseph Iams, requesting the waiver. Should you or any of the other Council members have any questions concerning the report or need additional information, please feel free to call me at 235 -9278.
