To: Redevelopment Commission
From: Bill Schalliol, Economic Development Planner '~j~l
Subject: Confirming Resolution 2666 -South Bend Central Dev. Area
Date: April 5, 2010
Attached for the Redevelopment Commission's consideration is proposed Confirming
Resolution 2666 which would amend the South Bend Central Development Area Plan and
add nine (9) parcels to the acquisition list. The properties are part of a parcel cluster
located at 122 S Niles Avenue in the East Bank Village.
The process to add these properties to the acquisition list began when the South Bend
Redevelopment Commission (RDC) conducted a study and determined that it is necessary
and beneficial to the orderly redevelopment of the South Bend Central Development Area
(SBCDA) to add various parcels to the SBCDA Acquisition List to further the development
efforts in the East Bank. The declaratory resolution of the RDC (Res. 2655 approved
February 19, 2010) was sent to the St. Joseph County Area Plan Commission (APC) (Res
208-10 approved March 16, 2010) for an order approving the RDC's action. The APC's
resolution was approved by the South Bend City Common Council (Res. 10-16 approved
March 22, 2010) for an order approving the RDC's and APC's action. The process now
returns to the RDC for a confirming resolution and public hearing.
The parcels proposed for addition to the acquisition list are in a specific target area within
the East Bank Village area of the SBCDA. The parcels are located on the east side of Niles
Avenue between Jefferson and Washington. The property will be used to stimulate new
development in the heart of the East Bank Planning Area as well as serve as a site for
improved surface parking to facilitate a growing parking need in this village area.
Staff asks the Redevelopment Commission for favorable approval of Confirming Resolution
2666.
