227 W. JEFFERSON BOULEVARD <br />SIIITF. 1400 S. <br />SOUTH BEND, IN 46601 -1830 <br />CITY OF SOUTH BEND PETE BUTTIGIEG, MAYOR <br />COMMUNITY INVESTMENT <br />September 15, 2014 SCOTT FORD, EXECUTIVE DIRECTOR <br />Council Member Gavin Ferlic, Chairperson <br />Community Investment Committee <br />South Bend Common Council <br />4th Floor, County City Building <br />South Bend, IN 46601 <br />RE: Real Property Tax Abatement Petition for: <br />Swing- Batter - Swing, LLC <br />Dear Council Member Ferlic: <br />PIIONE; 574/235 -9371 <br />FAX:- 574/235 -9021 <br />Swing- Batter -Swing has amended their original petition. They have changed the <br />estimated square footage and also their description of the new facility. <br />Swing- Batter -Swing is building a first class indoor hitting and training facility. The <br />facility will have a floor area of 17,727 gross square feet with 15,202 net square feet. The <br />project cost remain at $1,000,000 and Richard Hill, attorney for Swing - Batter -Swing has <br />confirmed the project cost will not change. <br />The facility will consist of six indoor tunnels and two regulation pitching mounds. In <br />addition to the facility being used by the Silver Hawks and visiting Midwest League <br />teams, the facility will be operated on an annual basis for the region. There will be the <br />opportunity for individual training, team training, or even the ability to bring out the <br />family and spend time in the batting change. The intent is to cater to both baseball and <br />softball. The facility would be run by a full -time, reputable baseball professional. There <br />will be a second level, known as the observation deck that will provide an area for <br />parents to watch their kids participate. It will be an exciting facility that will help attract <br />more people to South Bend outside of Silver Hawks baseball season. The facility will be <br />available for a number of game -day activities that will complement the existing family - <br />focused attractions at the stadium on game days and also will be available to be rented by <br />individuals and groups for other special events. <br />The project meets the qualifications for an eight -year real property tax abatement and a <br />representative from Swing- Batter - Swing, LLC will be available to meet with the <br />Committee on Monday, September 22, 2014. <br />Should you or any of the other Council members have any questions concerning the <br />report, or need additional information, please feel free to call me at 235 -9339. <br />PLANNING NEIGHBORHOOD ENGAGEMENT BUSINESS DEVELOPMENT ECONOMICRESOURCES <br />JITIN KAIN PAMELA C.
