Mayor Joseph E. Kernan was present and asked the Board for its
favorable consideration of the above referenced documents.
Mayor Kernan stated that this transfer process has been going on
for over three and one-half (3 1/2) years and has been an attempt
to provide additional space to IUSB for expansion purposes. The
action taken to make the armory facility located on Northside
Boulevard available to IUSB has been a long and complicated
process.
Mayor Kernan advised that the Board has before it today for
execution an Exchange Agreement that will also be executed by the
Army. He noted that negotiations have been going on for the last
couple of years with the Department of Defense as well as other
agencies who have all been involved in this matter. The Mayor
stated that the first step was the former Maple Lane School being
given to the City by the South Bend Community School Corporation
with the school now being transferred to the Civil Foundation.
This sets in motion the required Agreements between the Civic
Foundation, the Army and IUSB.
The Mayor noted that the result of this process will be the Army
moving into the former Maple Lane School and the renovation of
the Northside Boulevard facility for classroom space by IUSB. It
is anticipated that the Northside Boulevard facility will be
ready for use as classrooms in the Fall of 1992.
Mayor Kernan thanked Mr. David Roos of the Department of Economic
Development and Mrs. Jenny Pitts Manier of the City Attorney's
office for their hard work on this project. Mayor Kernan also
thanked a number of past and present Congressmen and Senators for
their assistance in .securing various funding making this project
possible.
Mayor Kernan further noted that the access road to the Maple Lane
School has been completed and keeping the concerns of the
neighborhood in mind, access from the facility will be off of
Ironwood.
