COMMUNICATIONS TC There were no Communications. HERE WERE NO OMMUNICATIONS 5. OLD BUSINESS TOB There was no Old Business. HERE WAS NO LD USINESS 6. NEW BUSINESS A. Receipt of Bids (1) Receipt of Bids in connection with disposition of 1313 Prairie Avenue in the Airport Economic Development Area Mr. Inks noted that one bid was received for disposition of 1313 Prairie Avenue, from Enyart Electric Motor Repair. He referred the bid to legal counsel to determine whether it was a conforming bid. Mr. Meteiver reviewed the bid and found that the bid for the property was less than the minimum offering price of $189,000. The bid is therefore non-responsive. He asked for a motion to reject all tendered bids. C Upon a motion by Ms. King, seconded by OMMISSION REJECTED ALL TENDERED BIDS FOR 1313PAA RAIRIE VENUE IN THE IRPORT Mr. Downes and unanimously carried, the EDA CONOMIC EVELOPMENT REA Commission rejected all tendered bids for 1313 Prairie Avenue in the Airport Economic Development Area. Mr. Meteiver explained that the Commission 4 South Bend Redevelopment Commission Regular Meeting –November 19, 2010 6. NEW BUSINESS (CONT.) A. Receipt of Bids (1) continued… may not, then, take any formal action to dispose of the property for thirty days. Staff may use that period to negotiate further with Enyart or any other bidders and may prepare documents to expedite disposition after the thirty days has passed. B. South Bend Central Development Area (1) Resolution No. 2805, a bond resolution of the South Bend Redevelopment Commission authorizing the issuance of revenue bonds of the South Bend Redevelopment District for the purpose of raising money for redevelopment and economic development in the Central Development Area. Mr. Inks noted that the Coveleski renovation project was outlined at the November 2, 2010 meeting. He reviewed the financing represented in Resolution No. 2805. The bond is anticipated to be $4,980,000 out of a total project cost of nearly $10,200,000. The balance of the funds will come from TIF ($2,000,000) and COIT and EDIT funds ($3,200,000). These are Recovery Zone Bonds, which need to be issued before December 31, 2010. They have a 45% credit on the interest on the bonds from the federal government, which over the life of the bonds represents about a $400,000 savings. Mr. Rompola noted that Resolution No. 2805 conservatively sets the maximum term and interest rate of the bonds at a 20 year term 5 South Bend Redevelopment Commission Regular Meeting –November 19, 2010 6. NEW BUSINESS (CONT.) B. South Bend Central Development Area (1) continued… and 8% interest rate. It is expected the term will be closer to 15 years and the interest rate less than 8%. The resolution authorizes the bonds to be issued as Recovery Zone Economic Development Bonds. The resolution also authorizes their issuance to be as normal tax exempt bonds, if the underwriter feels it is a better deal for the city. The balance of the resolution provides for the payment of the bonds from the Professional Sports Development Fund. To the extent that that those funds are not available, there is a pledge of COIT revenue. Mr. Rompola noted that issuance of the bonds is subject to Council action, scheduled for November 22. Mr. Varner asked how the credit on interest is handled. Is it cash that comes back to the city or a reduction in the rate? Mr. Rompola responded that it is cash that comes back from the Department of the Treasury. The Registrar and Paying Agent of the bonds would be authorized to file a form prior to every interest payment and the Treasury would cut a check which would go to the Registrar and Paying Agent and would be used to offset the amount needed from the city to make the payment. Mr. Downes noted that he is one of fifty or so investors in the Silver Hawks. He has been advised by legal counsel that that does not constitute a conflict of interest because the level of his ownership is so small. 6 South Bend Redevelopment Commission Regular Meeting –November 19, 2010 6. NEW BUSINESS (CONT.) B. South Bend Central Development Area (1) continued… Mr. Varner noted that much of the discussion about the bond and improvements implies that there will be a lot of additional business or attendance or revenue at the Cove. He believes that in twenty-five years South Bend has established its baseball market. He does not believe there will be additional growth. He is not in favor of the investment.

Airport Economic Development Area (1) Proposal for Phase II Environmental Site Assessment at 122 E. Sample St. (Enyart Electric Motor Repair) Mr. Relos noted that a Phase I environmental site assessment was completed by Phifer Environmental on 122 E. Sample Street, the Enyart Electric Motor Repair property, on July 6, 2010. The Phase I revealed certain Recognized Environmental Conditions. A Phase II is recommended to ensure the building’s industrial use as an electric motor repair and service shop have not contaminated surrounding soil. Phifer Environmental proposes doing four Geoprobe soil borings to a depth of up to thirty feet for laboratory testing. The soil boring locations will then be used to gather ground water which will be tested. The data will be reviewed and compiled into a Phase II report with an opinion on whether further 8 South Bend Redevelopment Commission Regular Meeting –November 19, 2010 6. NEW BUSINESS (CONT.) C. Airport Economic Development Area (1) continued… site assessment is needed. The fee for the Phase II assessment is $5,305. Staff recommends approval of the proposal. C Upon a motion by Mr. Downes, seconded by OMMISSION APPROVED THE PROPOSAL FROM PEPIIS HIFER NVIRONMENTAL FOR A HASE ITE Mr. Alford and unanimously carried, the A122E.S SSESSMENT OF AMPLE FOR THE SCOPE Commission approved the proposal from OF SERVICES AND FEE PROPOSED Phifer Environmental for a Phase II Site Assessment of 122 E. Sample for the scope of services and fee proposed. (2) Proposal for supervision of demolition (Block building at 250 E. Sample) Mr. Relos noted that on September 17, 2010, the Commission accepted a proposal from Christopher Burke Engineering (CBE) for environmental services and to prepare demolition specifications for the demolition of the cement block building at 236 E. Sample St. This building is next to Ivy Tech’s administrative offices at 250 East Sample Street. This work has now been completed, and the project, including new sidewalks on the west side of Carroll Street, and on Sample from Carroll to the western edge of Ivy Tech’s property line, has been quoted and the winning contractor selected. The city’s Engineering staff is over worked and does not have time to do this oversight. Staff recommends hiring Christopher Burke Engineering to do construction oversight, to ensure the work meets city standards. 9 South Bend Redevelopment Commission Regular Meeting –November 19, 2010 6. NEW BUSINESS (CONT.) C. Airport Economic Development Area (2) continued… Christopher Burke has submitted a proposal in the amount of $15,300 to provide that oversight. Staff recommends accepting the offer. C Upon a motion by Mr. Alford, seconded by OMMISSION ACCEPTED THE PROPOSAL FROM CBE HRISTOPHER URKE NGINEERING FOR THE Mr. Downes and unanimously carried, the SCOPE OF SERVICES AND FEE PROPOSED Commission accepted the proposal from Christopher Burke Engineering for the scope of services and fee proposed. (3) Administrative settlement for acquisition of 1512 S. Scott St. Mr. Relos noted that on September 17, 2010, the Commission approved Resolution No. 2765, which authorized the purchase of 1512 Scott St. based upon its average appraised value of $14,750. Staff has been working with the property owner within the acquisition and relocation sections of the Relocation Act to reasonably reach an agreement to acquire this property. The property owner has expressed his interest in selling the property, but is not interested in being relocated under the terms of the Act. Since he has family in Florida and wants to move closer to them, he would like a lump sum payment as settlement for the acquisition of this property. Following the Act, total estimated acquisition and relocation costs associated with this property would be $33,800. The property owner has stated he would be satisfied with a 10 South Bend Redevelopment Commission Regular Meeting –November 19, 2010 6. NEW BUSINESS (CONT.) C. Airport Economic Development Area (3) continued… lump sum payment of $30,000. Staff feels the total acquisition cost of $30,000 is reasonable for this property, in light of its size, condition and amenities, and recommends approving the administrative settlement. C Upon a motion by Ms. King, seconded by OMMISSION APPROVED THE ADMINISTRATIVE $30,000 SETTLEMENT OF FOR ACQUISITION OF Mr. Downes and unanimously carried, the 1512S.SS COTT T Commission approved the administrative settlement of $30,000 for acquisition of 1512 S. Scott St. (4) Resolution No. 2801 related to acquisition of property in the Airport Economic Development Area (755 S. Michigan St.) Mr. Relos noted that 755 S. Michigan St. was added to the Airport Economic Development Area Acquisition List by Resolution No. 2736 on August 20, 2010. It was added in an effort to assist the Center for Homeless in its need for parking and future expansion. Upon acquisition, the property will be donated to the Center for Homeless. The property consists of a one story, office / general commercial building, constructed in 1959 of concrete block with a brick façade. Total gross building area is 2,790 square feet, with land area of 6,890 square feet (0.158 acres). The back 3,430 square feet of the property is asphalt paved parking. The building at the time of its appraisal (July 2010) was owner occupied. 11 South Bend Redevelopment Commission Regular Meeting –November 19, 2010 6. NEW BUSINESS (CONT.) C. Airport Economic Development Area (4) continued… Resolution No. 2801 sets the acquisition value of the property at $82,500, the average of two independent appraisals. CRN.2801 Upon a motion by Ms. King, seconded by OMMISSION APPROVED ESOLUTION O RELATED TO ACQUISITION OF PROPERTY IN THE Mr. Downes and unanimously carried, the AEDA(755 IRPORT CONOMIC EVELOPMENT REA Commission approved Resolution No. 2801 S.MS.) ICHIGAN T related to acquisition of property in the Airport Economic Development Area (755 S. Michigan St.) (5) Administrative settlement for acquisition of 755 S. Michigan St. Mr. Relos noted that the Center for Homeless has for many years tried to purchase the property at 755 S. Michigan, but the parties could not come to an agreement on price. To help move the acquisition forward, the Commission added the property to the Airport Economic Development Area’s acquisition list in August of this year. Staff and the owner’s representative have come to an agreement for the acquisition of the property. The acquisition would be a lump sum payment of $205,000, waiving all relocation benefits. Traditionally, when relocating a business, it is not uncommon for moving and relocation costs to be equal to or more than the acquisition cost. If these additional costs were factored in, the total acquisition and relocation costs could easily approach $200,000. Staff recommends accepting the administrative settlement. 6. NEW BUSINESS (CONT.) 12 South Bend Redevelopment Commission Regular Meeting –November 19, 2010 C. Airport Economic Development Area (5) continued… CA Upon a motion by Ms. King, seconded by OMMISSION APPROVED THE DMINISTRATIVE $205,000 SETTLEMENT OF FOR ACQUISITION OF Mr. Downes and unanimously carried, the 755S.MS. ICHIGAN T Commission approved the Administrative settlement of $205,000 for acquisition of 755 S. Michigan St. (6) Proposal for architectural services related to relocation of Hell’s Angels. Mr. Relos noted that on August 6, 2010, the Commission approved an Administrative Settlement to acquire 807 W. Indiana. As it was understood at the time, this settlement was adequate for relocation of Hell’s Angels, which is being acquired for the southern expansion of Ignition Park. While going through the process of securing a special exception before relocating, the club was required by the city to install an 800 square foot hard surface, off-street parking lot, in addition to planting arborvitae as a buffer along the alley. On October 1, the Commission approved a $3,500 payment to cover those costs. It has now come to light that because the club’s move into this building triggers a “change in use”, it must be brought up to city standards. What is needed to allow the club to move forward with its relocation, according to the Building Department, is to have an architect do a floor plan, to scale, that can be submitted down state for approval. This floor plan needs to show the current building layout with any city required changes. Not until the state approves the 13 South Bend Redevelopment Commission Regular Meeting –November 19, 2010 6. NEW BUSINESS (CONT.) C. Airport Economic Development Area (6) continued… plan can building permits be issued and an occupancy permit granted. Under our relocation policy, this cost would have been included in the original relocation amount. Staff recommends approving the additional cost for architectural services. Architectural Design Group (ADG), working in conjunction with the Building Department, has submitted a proposal to draw up plans that will meet city specifications, and submit them for approval. The fee for these services is not to exceed $11,500. Mr. Relos noted that it is possible that the Building Department could additionally require Hell’s Angels to install two bathrooms and do a little cement work. If that is the case staff will be back to ask for additional relocation costs. The total costs should still be within the amount budgeted for this acquisition. Mr. Alford asked for an estimate of how long it might be before the club could be operating in its new location. Mr. Relos estimated it might be February. C Upon a motion by Ms. King, seconded by OMMISSION ACCEPTED THE PROPOSAL FROM ADG FOR THE SCOPE OF SERVICES AND FEE Mr. Alford and unanimously carried, the PROPOSED Commission accepted the proposal from ADG for the scope of services and fee proposed. 14 South Bend Redevelopment Commission Regular Meeting –November 19, 2010 6.
