NEW BUSINESS (CONT.) C. South Bend Central Development Area (1) continued... Franklin Streetscape Project. This project will remove unneeded curb cuts along Jefferson Street between Main and William, thereby increasing the number of available parking spaces. The large curb cut on the south side of Jefferson, near the Main Street intersection, will be removed, and two to three parking spaces added. Along the south side of Jefferson St., between the alley behind the WNIT building and its parking lot to the west, sidewalks will be replaced, the tree lawn on each side of the sidewalk from the western alley will be carried east, and new curb will be installed. Along Franklin St, between Jefferson and Washington Streets, which in the past couple of years has been nicely revitalized, areas of sidewalk, curb, and tree lawn will be replaced. Areas of the brick street, which are currently sinking, will be brought up to their proper height. Along this block, there is a single tall street light, which will be replaced with four decorative light fixtures like those along Michigan St. Total estimated cost for this project is $175,000.

Upon a motion by Ms. King, seconded by Mr. Downes and unanimously carried, the Commission approved Resolution No. 2755 approving and authorizing the execution of an Addendum to the Master Agency on COMMISSION APPROVED RESOLUTION NO. 2755 APPROVING AND AUTHORIZING THE EXECUTION OF AN ADDENDUM TO THE MASTER AGENCY AGREEMENT (JEFFERSON /FRANKLIN STREETSCAPE PROJECT) South Bend Redevelopment Commission Regular Meeting — September 3, 2010 6. NEW BUSINESS (CONT.) C. South Bend Central Development Area (1) continued... Agreement (Jefferson/Franklin streetscape Project) (2) Resolution No. 2756 approving and authorizing the execution of an Addendum to the Master Agency Agreement (Jefferson /Wayne Electrical Outlets Project) Mr. Relos noted that Resolution No. 2756 approved an Addendum to the Master Agency Agreement for the Jefferson / Wayne Electrical Outlet Project. In an effort to continue the beautification of the downtown area, staff is working with the city's Engineering and Traffic & Lighting Departments for the replacement of 64 receptacles along Jefferson St., from the river to Wayne Street, ending at Lafayette Blvd. Over the years, most all of these receptacles have been broken off, and continue to be a hazard with pipes and wiring sticking out of the ground. These receptacles were placed near the trees along Jefferson and Wayne streets to allow for the lighting of the trees in the winter months. Traffic & Lighting has installed similar receptacles along Michigan St. They are low profile, UV rated outdoor plastic with GFI plugs and weather proof covers. The posts include built in stabilizers, and are the same color throughout, so there would be no chipping of the color. 7 South Bend Redevelopment Commission Regular Meeting — September 3, 2010 6. NEW BUSINESS (CONT.) C. South Bend Central Development Area (2) continued... It is estimated that the total cost of this project will be $25,000, which includes 75 new posts / receptacles (so Traffic & Lighting has some spares), and the labor to replace wiring and conduit as needed, and the installation and electrical hook up of the new receptacles. Ms. Jones wondered why so many of the old receptacles have broken. Mr. Relos thought it was from cars running up over the curb and hitting them, or because of vandalism. The new ones are a lot sturdier. Upon a motion by Mr. Downes, seconded by Mr. Varner and unanimously carried, the Commission approved Resolution No. 2756 approving and authorizing the execution of an Addendum to the Master Agency Agreement (Jefferson/Wayne Electrical Outlets Project) D. Airport Economic Development Area (1) Staff report on Indiana Avenue acquisitions. Mr. Relos gave an update on the acquisition of properties along Indiana Avenue. In an effort to stabilize the Rum Village Neighborhood and to expand Ignition Park by 23 acres, the Commission has been doing voluntary acquisition of property on the north side of Indiana between Franklin and Prairie, south of the railroad. COMMISSION APPROVED RESOLUTION NO. 2756 APPROVING AND AUTHORIZING THE EXECUTION OF AN ADDENDUM TO THE MASTER AGENCY AGREEMENT (JEFFERSON/WAYNE ELECTRICAL OUTLETS PROJECT STAFF REPORT ON INDIANA AVENUE ACQUISITIONS South Bend Redevelopment Commission Regular Meeting — September 3, 2010 6. NEW BUSINESS (CONT.) D. Airport Economic Development Area (1) continued... Mr. Relos distributed a map showing the following information: There are one hundred fifty parcels in that area. Twenty - one parcels in that area were owned by the city. The Commission has purchased twenty - five parcels from nineteen different owners. Twenty parcels were purchased at tax sale. Three properties are under purchase agreement. Staff is negotiating for thirty - nine other properties, There are forty -two other parcels whose owners have not expressed interest in selling, seven of them owned by the railroad. Mr. Relos noted that total acquisition and relocation costs to date have been $615,545, compared to $1,375,000 that was budgeted for the same properties. The acquisition process began in August 2009 with the addition of these parcels to the Acquisition List. The response of the residents interested in selling has been overwhelming. Mr. Relos noted that a woman from whom he purchased a home told him she was telling all her neighbors that they should work with him: that the process was good. It's good to know that the people we work with are happy with the process. Ms. Jones noted that the relocation costs for this area have been less than estimated, but that is not because we have been unfair in our dealings with the property owners. It is because our estimates were very conservative. The relocations are all voluntary. 9 South Bend Redevelopment Commission Regular Meeting — September 3, 2010 6. NEW BUSINESS (CONT.) D. Airport Economic Development Area (1) continued... Mr. Downes asked the status of the railroad owned properties. Mr. Relos responded that we are in preliminary discussions with the railroad to see if the track can be terminated at Prairie. We hope to have a meeting in a month or so with them. Ms. King thanked Mr. Relos for the good job he has done. E. West Washington- Chapin Development Area There was no business in the West Washington - Chapin Development Area. F.

Mr. Inks noted that staff has put a lot of work into the Triangle Housing Project just south of Eddy Street Commons, trying to get that development ready to move forward. Part of what is needed is a subdivision replat of the properties there. He asked that the Commission authorize him to sign all documents related to that replat so there will be no delays due to timing of Commission meetings. Upon a motion by Mr. Varner, seconded by Ms. King and unanimously carried, the Commission authorized the Director of Redevelopment to sign all documents related to the Subdivision Replat for the Triangle Housing Project in the Northeast Neighborhood Development Area. 7.

Rink site, river walk legal description and drawing Date: September 17, 2010 The attached Professional Services Agreement is a proposal from Danch, Harner & Associates to do a legal description and drawing for the existing river walk that runs along the western and southern boundary of the Rink site at Colfax & Sycamore streets. When built, the river walk encroaches over the property line in several areas. In preparation of finalizing the Contract for Sale of this property to East Bank South Bend Development, for the construction of town homes along the river, the City needs to get an easement for the river walk. For the October 1, 2010 Commission meeting, staff and David Matthews hope to have the addendum to the Contract for Sale ready for Commission approval. This addendum will show the final site plan, building specifications, and the granting of this easement. Total project services cost is $575. Staff requests a not -to- exceed amount of $1,000, in the event any revisions would be required. Staff requests approval of this Professional Services Agreement, to allow the preparation of the necessary river walk legal description and drawing for this site. What We Do Today Makes A Difference!

This Addendum was for a new facade on Ivy Tech's building at 250 E. Sample, and for the demolition of the cement block building at 236 E. Sample. The new fagade at 250 E. Sample has been completed, and is quite impressive. Ivy Tech is now ready for the cement block building to come down. The attached Professional Services Agreement is a proposal from Christopher Burke Engineering (CBE) for an asbestos study and demolition specifications for the block building at 236 E Sample Street. CBE will study the building for asbestos, stake the property corners, and draw up specs so the demolition can be quoted. This building appears to sit right on the property line on its west and south sides, and will be a difficult building to bring down because of this. In addition to an asbestos report and writing up the demo specs, CBE will oversee the quoting process, and assist in the selection of the winning contractor. Total project services cost is $6,250. Staff requests approval of this Professional Services Agreement, to allow for the needed asbestos report and demo specs to be completed for this property, so the demolition process may proceed.

Washington St. Indianapolis Indiana 46204 TEL (317) 266 -8000 FAX (317) 632 -3306 TOLL FREE (888) 463.1974 —� September 13, 2010 David Relos City of South Bend Division of Economic Development 12th Floor County -City Building South Bend, IN 46601 Subject: Demolition of the Building at 236 Sample Street Professional Services Proposal Dear Mr. Relos: Christopher B. Burke Engineering, Ltd (CBBEL) is pleased to provide this proposal for professional engineering services related to the Demolition of the Building at 236 Sample Street in the City of South Bend. The following is our understanding of the assignment, scope of services, and estimated fee in support of the project. UNDERSTANDING OF THE ASSIGNMENT The Demolition Project is located at 236 Sample Street in South Bend. Under the direction of the Ivy Tech Community College, the City is assisting with the demolition process in order to provide additional parking for their apprenticeship program. Such activities are a cooperative effort among many agencies and organizations, including the City of South Bend. The project includes the preparation of an Asbestos Survey and locating of the property corners in support of the proposed demolition, and the demolition project specifications. The City will provide a copy of the Environmental Phase I and Alta Survey already completed for the property. These two reports will be used in the preparation of the quote documents. SCOPE OF SERVICES Services to be provided by CBBEL for this work have been identified as follows: Task 1- Asbestos Survey An Asbestos - Containing Building Material (ACBM) survey will be performed by our sub- contractor, Phifer Environmental Services, LLC, (PES) a State of Indiana Certified Christopher B. Burke Engineering Ltd. City of South Send: Demolition of the Building at 236 Sample St. P01.080468.00001 Page 1 Asbestos Inspector. The survey will begin with a walk- through of the existing structure to document the locations of friable and non - friable materials that may be present. Friable materials are those that can be pulverized or reduced to powder by moderate pressure, such as spray - applied fireproofing and acoustical materials, acoustical ceiling tiles and most thermal system insulation. Non - friable materials are those that cannot be crumbled easily, such as resilient floor tiles and cement asbestos (Transite) board. Although the emphasis is on detecting friable materials, the possible presence of non - friable ACBM must also be considered, since non - friable materials may be pulverized or otherwise damaged and release asbestos fibers into the air during building demolition. The next phase of the survey will involve the selection of sampling areas and sample locations. Sample areas are typically grouped based on material homogeneity_ A homogeneous area is one that contains suspect materials that appear by texture, color and wear to be uniform and applied or installed at the same general time period. After sampling areas have been determined and recorded, representative samples of suspect materials will be collected. Only suspect material samples will be submitted for laboratory analyses. Samples will be sealed in airtight containers, labeled, and forwarded to an approved laboratory for analysis by the EPA - recommended method of Polarized Light Microscopy coupled with dispersion staining. Once sample analyses have been received, results will be reported as a Letter Report to the City of South Bend. The requisite Indiana Department of Environmental Management (IDEM), Notification of Demolition and Renovation Operations forms (with documentation) will also be prepared for signature by an "authorized representative" of the City of South Bend, and subsequent facsimile submittal to the Office of Air Quality. Task 2 — Locate Property Corners / Staking CBBEL will hire a sub - consultant to locate and stake the property corners to verify the limits of the demolition. Task 3 — Design Services / Demolition Bid Documents CBBEL staff will design and prepare final bid documents for the project. Plans and specifications will be prepared in accordance with City Standards and Specifications. The bid documents will include recommendations provided in the Phase I Environmental Report and Asbestos Survey to address the requirements of the regulatory agencies involved with this demolition. Specifications will be developed utilizing standard specifications and general conditions provided by the City in addition to CBBEL standard specifications. Applicable conflicts will be brought to your attention for your input. CBBEL staff will provide an opinion of probable cost based on the final bid documents.

It is intended that this limitation apply to any and all liability or cause of action however alleged or arising, unless otherwise prohibited by law. R 24. Client's Responsibilities: 'The Client agrees to provide full information regarding requirements for and about the Project, including a program which shall set forth the Client's objectives, schedule, constraints, criteria, special equipment, systems and site requirements. The Client agrees to furnish and pay for all legal, accounting and insurance counseling services as may be necessary at any time for the Project, including auditing services which the Client may require to verify the Contractor's Application for Payment or to ascertain how or for what purpose the Contractor has used the money paid by or on behalf of the Client. The Client agrees to require the Contractor, to the fullest extent permitted by law, to indemnify, hold harmless, and defend the Engineer, its consultants, and the employees and agents of any of them from and against any and all claims, suits, demands, liabilities, losses, damages, and costs ( "Losses "), including but not limited to costs of defense, arising in whole or in part out of the negligence of the Contractor, its subcontractors, the officers, employees, agents, and subcontractors of any of them, or anyone for whose acts any of them may be liable, regardless of whether or not such Losses are caused in part by a party indemnified hereunder. Specifically excluded from the foregoing are Losses arising out of the preparation or approval of maps, drawings, opinions, reports, surveys, change orders, designs, or specifications, and the giving of or failure to give directions by the Engineer, its consultants, and the agents and employees of any of them, provided such giving or failure to give is the primary cause of Loss. The Client also agrees to require the Contractor to provide to the Engineer the required certificate of insurance.

The Client shall provide to the Engineer such information as is available to the Client and the Client's consultants and contractors, and the Engineer shall be entitled to rely upon the accuracy and completeness thereof. The Client recognizes that it is impossible for the Engineer to assure the accuracy, completeness and sufficiency of such information, either because it is impossible to verify, or because of errors or omissions which may have occurred in assembling the information the Client is providing. Accordingly, the Client agrees, to the fullest extent permitted by law, to indemnify and hold the Engineer and the Engineer's subconsultants harmless from any claim, liability or cost (including reasonable attorneys' fees and cost of defense) for injury or loss arising or allegedly arising from errors, omissions or inaccuracies in documents or other information provided by the Client to the Engineer. 26.

Client will reimburse Engineer for all associated costs as previously set forth in (Item 4 of) this Agreement. 27. Indemnity Clause: When construction observation tasks are part of the service to be performed by the Engineer under this Agreement, the Client will include the following clause in the construction contract documents and the Client agrees not to modify or delete it: Contractor (and any subcontractor into whose subcontract this clause is incorporated) agrees and acknowledges that Engineer shall be considered a third party beneficiary of those contracts into which this clause has been incorporated; and agrees to assume the entire liability for all personal injury claims suffered by its employees, including without limitation, claims asserted by persons allegedly injured on the Project; waives any limitation of liability defense based on the Workers' Compensation Act, court interpretations of said Act or otherwise; and to the fullest extent permitted by law, agrees to indemnify and hold harmless and defend Owner and Engineer and their agents, employees, and consultants (the "Indemnities ") from and against any such loss, expense, damage or injury, including attorneys' fees and costs that the Indemnitees may sustain as a result of such claims. 28. Job Site Safety /Supervision & Construction Observation: The Engineer shall neither have control over or charge of, nor be responsible for, the construction means, methods, techniques, sequences of procedures, or for safety precautions and programs in connection with the Work since they are solely the Contractor's rights and responsibilities. The Client agrees that the Contractor shall supervise and direct the work efficiently with his/her best skill and attention; and that the Contractor shall be solely responsible for the means, methods, techniques, sequences and procedures of construction and safety at the job site. The Client agrees and warrants that this intent shall be carried out in the Client's contract with the Contractor. The Client further agrees that the Contractor shall be responsible for initiating; maintaining and supervising all safety precautions and programs in connection with the work: and that the Contractor shall take all necessary precautions for the safety of, and shall provide the necessary protection to prevent damage, injury or loss to, all employees on the subject site and all other persons who may be affected thereby.

The Engineer shall not be responsible for any acts or omissions of the Contractor, subcontractor, any entity performing any portions of the Work, or any agents or employees of any of them. The Engineer does not guarantee the performance of the Contractor and shall not be responsible for the Contractor's failure to perform its Work in accordance with the Contract Documents or any applicable laws, codes, rules or regulations. When municipal review services are included in the Scope of Services, the Engineer (acting on behalf of the municipality), when acting in good faith in the discharge of its duties, shall not thereby render itself liable personally and is, to the maximum extent permitted by law, relieved from all liability for any damage that may accrue to persons or property by reason of any act or omission in the discharge of its duties. Any suit brought against the Engineer which involve the acts or omissions performed by it in the enforcement of any provisions of the Client's rules, regulation and /or ordinance shall be defended by the Client until final termination of the proceedings. The Engineer shall be entitled to all defenses and municipal immunities that are, or would be, available to the Client. 29. Insurance and Indemnification: The Engineer and the Client understand and agree that the Client will contractually require the Contractor to defend and indemnify the Engineer and /or any subconsultants from any claims arising from the Work. The Engineer and the Client further understand and agree that the Client will contractually require the Contractor to procure commercial general liability insurance naming the Engineer as an additional named insured with respect to the work. The Contractor shall provide to the Client certificates of insurance evidencing that the contractually required insurance coverage has been procured. However, the Contractor's failure to provide the Client with the requisite certificates of insurance shall not constitute a waiver of this provision by the Engineer. The Client and Engineer waive all rights against each other and against the Contractor and consultants, agents and employees of each of them for damages to the extent covered by property insurance during construction. The Client and Engineer each shall require similar waivers from the Contractor, consultants, agents and persons or entities awarded separate contracts administered under the Client's own forces. 30. Hazardous Materials /Pollutants: Unless otherwise provided by this Agreement, the Engineer and Engineer's consultants shall have no responsibility for the discovery, presence, handling, removal or disposal of or exposure of persons to hazardous materials /pollutants in any form at the Project site, including but not limited to mold /mildew, asbestos, asbestos products, polychlorinated biphenyl (PCB) or other toxic /hazardous /pollutant type substances. Furthermore, Client understands that the presence of mold /mildew and the like are results of prolonged or repeated exposure to moisture and the lack of corrective action. Client also understands that corrective action is an operation, maintenance and repair activity for which the Engineer is not responsible.

Indiana Ave. Date: September 17, 2010 This is the staff report for the administrative settlement that is needed for the acquisition of 527 - 529 W. Indiana Avenue. According to the Uniform Relocation Act (Act), which has been adopted as the Commission's relocation policy, an administrative settlement is authorized in cases where an additional payment is necessary to acquire a property. Before the Commission today was Resolution No. 2762, setting the offer price for this property at $30,500, which is the average appraised value. Because the second unit of this property was not currently rented, an income value approach was not fully utilized. When valuing this duplex based on the annual net income it could generate, the capitalization rate method commonly used by local financial institutions on income producing properties arrives at a value for this property at $50,000 - $52,000. Recent updates to this property include a new roof 3 years ago, new furnace 2 years ago, and separate 100 amp electrical service for both units. The property owner has counter offered at $50,000. In light of the recent improvements to this duplex, its overall good condition, and the above capitalization rate valuation, Staff feels the property owner's counter offer of $50,000 is reasonable, and requests Commission approval of this Administrative Settlement to allow for the acquisition of this property.

Indiana Ave. Date: September 17, 2010 This is the staff report for the administrative settlement that is needed for the acquisition of 605 W. Indiana Avenue. According to the Uniform Relocation Act (Act), which has been adopted as the Commission's relocation policy, an administrative settlement is authorized in cases where an additional payment is necessary to acquire a property. On July 23, 2010, the Commission approved Resolution No. 2727, which authorized the purchase of this property based upon its average appraised value of $19,500. Staff has been working with the property owner, within the acquisition and relocation sections of the Act, to reasonably reach an agreement to acquire this property. The property owner has expressed his interest in selling this property, but he is not interested in being relocated under the terms of the Act. Since he lives alone, he instead wants to search for a house that is in need of repairs. He can then get a house for a decent price and fix it up himself, as he has with this property. Following the Act, total estimated acquisition and relocation costs associated with this property would be $43,200. The property owner has stated he would take $35,000, of which approximately $10,000 would go to pay off the land contract balance owing. In addition, we would pay his fixed moving expense of $1,700, for a total payment of $36,700. Staff feels the total acquisition cost of $36,700 is reasonable for this property, in light of its size, condition, and amenities, and requests your approval of the administrative settlement to allow the acquisition of this property.
