In addition, Real Services also has a program consisting of fifty (50) sites located strategically throughout a five county area where 1,500 meals per day are served at public housing, churches, etc. For various reasons, Real Services has been forced to relocate nine (9) times in the past several years. During the nine relocations, Real Services never missed a meal. A permanent location with a kitchen has become a necessity. The location at 1151 South Michigan, built ten years ago, is presently L South Bend Redevelopment Commission Regular Meeting —April 1, 2005 6. NEW BUSINESS (CONT.) A.

Mr. Fox further noted that the population is getting older every day and the segment of that population that is growing at the most rapid rate are those persons eighty -five (85) and older. Thought needs to be given to Real Services' future and the future of our community. The proposed project will consist of a new building located adjacent to the existing building. The new building will have at least two (2) floors and a full basement, running parallel to Michigan Street. Office space will also be added for the administration of all programs. Real Services is in a strong financial position, which is evidenced in the Annual Report included in the bid. Real Services is looking forward to the additional expansion. Mr. Hunt asked if the building will be architecturally compatible with the building built ten (10) years ago. Mr. Fox replied that the building will be compatible. Ms. Greene noted that disposition of property is governed by I.C. 36- 7- 14 -22. Under this section of the Code, the Commission is required to obtain two independent appraisals of the value of the property for sale or lease.

The Commission must then prepare an offering sheet showing the properties and the offering price which may not exceed the average of the two appraisals. After publishing notice consistent with the requirements of I.C. 5 -3 -1, the Commission may reject any bids received or may make an award to the highest bidder. In determining the best bid, the Commission must consider the following: (1) The size and character of the improvements proposed to be made by the bidder on the real property bid on; (2) The bidder's plans and ability to improve the real property with reasonable promptness; (3) Whether the real property when improved will be sold or rented; (4) The bidder's proposed sale or rental prices; (5) The bidder's compliance with the statute; and (6) Any factors that will assure the Commission that the sale or lease, if made, will further the execution of the redevelopment plan and best serve the interests of the community, from the standpoint of both human and economic welfare.

Mr. Jim Frick from the South Gateway Association addressed the Commission. The South Gateway Association has been supporting the Real Services project for several years. It is anticipated that the property located at 1101 S. Michigan will be sold to Real Services by the UEA. The property, purchased in 2004, is necessary for the quality of the project Real Services wants to build. South Gateway is hoping that the new Real Services building, estimated in the million dollar range, will also stimulate a buyer for the Dudes and Darlings property. The Real Services project is a big asset to the neighborhood. B.
