ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT COMMISSION
MAKING CERTAIN ESTIMATES
itr
I
't
Pursuant to the Municipal Economic Development Act of 1965
as amended, the City of South Bend Economic Development Commission
is required to make certain estimates in regard to the construction of
a building to house service type enterprises in the town of Roseland
at 201 Dixie Way North. The estimates are as follows:
1
(1) The number of public services or facilities, including
streets, sidewalks, schools, sewers, street lights, fire
and police protection which would be made additionally
necessary or desirable on account of the proposed construction
are small and the increased tax base to the town of Roseland,
Clay Township and St. Joseph County will more than offset
any expense,
(2) The total project cost of the proposedfacility will be
$240, 000. 00.
(3) The number of jobs to be created by the proposed
facility would be upwards of 70 people.

Mr. Fagen has been in business in the town of Roseland for
a number of years and is very much interested in contributing his
efforts to improving the economic base of that community.
