Mr. Inks reported that staff is in the process of working on an EDC bond of approximately $6M. The Redevelopment Commission has previously taken actions to allocate TIF as a funding source for bond repayment. Staff requests approval for the Crowe Chizek Letter of Engagement. Mr. King requested the following Abstention %1� Statement be included in the record: I will abstain from voting on the request for Redevelopment Commission approval of a Letter of Engagement from Crowe, Chizek and Company, LL to perform financial advisory services related to the proposed Erskine Village Project. I worked at Crowe Chizek for 33 years and retired on April], 1999. I am currently receiving retirement payments from Crowe Chizek; and I am able to participate in a Crowe Chizek medical insurance program for which I pay the entire premium. In light of these circumstances and so that there is no hint of impropriety, I will abstain from voting on the Letter of Engagement from Crowe, Chizek and Company. However, for the avoidance of doubt, I want to state that I do not have any ownership interest in Crowe Chizek and I am not in any way employed by Crowe Chizek. A THERE WERE NO COMMUNICATIONS South Bend Redevelopment Commission Regular Meeting — February 4, 2005 5. OLD BUSINESS (CONT.) A. Continued... Mr. Hunt inquired if the fees proposed were reasonable. Mr. Inks replied that the fees proposed are consistent with past bond issues and the scope of services proposed have been reviewed by staff and meet the needs of the City. Upon a motion by Mr. Hunt, seconded by Mr. Downes and unanimously carried, the Commission approved a Letter of Engagement from Crowe Chizek and Company, LLC to perform financial advisory services related to the proposed Erskine Village Development Project. Commissioner King abstained from the vote. 6. NEW BUSINESS A. Public Hearing (1) Public Hearing on Resolution No. 2119 amending the Sample -Ewing Development Area Development Plan. Mr. Inks reported that the Public Hearing file was complete and requested the following items be entered into the record: (1) Copy of the Notice of Hearing; (2) Affidavits from the Tri County News and South Bend Tribune that the Notice of Public Hearing was published in those newspapers on January 21, 2005; (3) Copy of Resolution No. 2119; (4) A statement from Mr. Laurent that on January 21, 2005, copies of the Notice of Public Hearing were sent to the affected property owners and registered neighborhood associations; and (5) As of 10:00 a.m. this morning, no written remonstrances were received. G 4 COMMISSION APPROVED A LETTER OF ENGAGEMENT FROM CROWE CHIZEK AND COMPANY, LLC TO PERFORM FINANCIAL ADVISORY SERVICES RELATED TO THE PROPOSED ERSKINE VILLAGE DEVELOPMENT PROJECT. COMMISSIONER KING ABSTAINED FROM THE VOTE. South Bend Redevelopment Commission Regular Meeting — February 4, 2005 6. NEW BUSINESS (CONT.) A. Public Hearings (1) continued... Ms. Greene noted that under I.C. 36 -7 -14- 17.5, the Commission is not required to have evidence or make findings that were required for the establishment of the original development area. However, the Commission is required to make the following findings before approving the amendment: (1) The amendment is reasonable and appropriate when considered in relation to the original resolution, plan and purposes of I.C. 36 -7 -14, and (2) The resolution or plan, with the proposed amendment, conforms to the comprehensive plan for the City of South Bend. Resolution No. 2119 includes this language and accordingly, adoption by the Commission would satisfy the requirements of the statute. In addition, the Commission is required to consider any written remonstrances that are filed during the filing period specified in the notice. Mr. Laurent reported that Resolution No. 2119 will add one property to the Sample -Ewing Development Area Development Plan acquisition list. This property is located at 746 South Arnold Street. The property is owned by Peterson Printing Corporation, which is in Chapter 11 bankruptcy. Staff has been contacted by the bankruptcy trustee due to the property's lack of marketability and the Commission's significant investment in the adjacent Oliver site. Following initial contact from the trustee, staff has had further discussions with the c South Bend Redevelopment Commission Regular Meeting — February 4, 2005 6. NEW BUSINESS (CONT.) A. Public Hearings (1) continued... trustee and has also conducted limited environmental testing on the property. The trustee has stated that the property would be sold to the Commission at a value of approximately $5,000. The trustee has stated that if the property is not purchased by the City, or the Commission, the property would be abandoned. This would place a vacant, derelict, abandoned building adjacent to a site that the Commission is marketing for new development. Staff feels that due to the limited resale potential of the property in its present condition, its location, the building configuration, the deteriorated condition (or %00I lack) of utilities and direct proximity to the Oliver Industrial Park, acquisition of the property by the Redevelopment Commission is appropriate and necessary to further the development goals of the Sample -Ewing Development Area. Mr. King opened the Public Hearing on PUBLIC HEARING ON RESOLUTION No. 2119 Resolution No. 2119 and asked if there was AMENDING THE SAMPLE -EWING DEVELOPMENT anyone from the public who wished to speak AREA DEVELOPMENT PLAN. in favor or against the resolution. There being no one from the public wishing to speak regarding Resolution No. 2119, Mr. King closed the Public Hearing for whatever action the Commission wished to take. G South Bend Redevelopment Commission Regular Meeting — February 4, 2005 6. NEW BUSINESS (CONT.) A. Public Hearings (2) Commission approval requested for Resolution No. 2119. Mr. Hunt asked how long the property has been vacant. Mr. Laurent replied the property has been vacant approximately two (2) years. Upon a motion by Mr. Hunt, seconded by COMMISSION APPROVED RESOLUTION No. 2119 Mr. Downes and unanimously carried, the AMENDING THE SAMPLE -EWING DEVELOPMENT Commission approved Resolution No. 2119 AREA DEVELOPMENT PLAN. amending the Sample -Ewing Development Area Development Plan. B. South Bend Central Development Area (1) Commission approval requested for Proposal for professional services in the South Bend Central Development Area. (Demolition specifications and Asbestos survey, Rink Riverside Building) Mr. Mathia reported that a proposal was received from Wightman Petrie, Inc. to prepare demolition specifications for the former Rink Riverside Printing building located at 209 East Colfax. The amount of the proposal is $5,500. Staff approached the engineering staff of the City's Department of Public Works to prepare the subject specifications. The engineering staff was concerned with the building's proximity to the river, the site's topography and the history of the building as first a laundry facility and next a printing company. Therefore, they recommended that a consultant more experienced with these c South Bend Redevelopment Commission Regular Meeting — February 4, 2005 6. NEW BUSINESS (CONT.) B. South Bend Central Development Area (1) continued... issues be utilized to prepare the specifications. They further recommended that Wightman Petrie be considered for the work. In addition to the demolition specifications, Wightman Petrie also proposed completing a Phase II Environmental Assessment. Staff is holding that proposal in abeyance until the demolition is complete and a more detailed inspection of the site can be made. However, the Phase II proposal also included an asbestos survey of the building. That survey needs to be completed in order to prepare the L� specifications for demolition. The Redevelopment Commission is requested to: (a) approve both Wightman Petrie's proposal to prepare demolition specifications for the Rink Building and Wightman's proposal for the asbestos survey; and (b) authorize funding up to $7,000 to cover the cost of preparing the demolition specifications at $5,500, and the asbestos survey at $1,000 and contingencies at $500. Staff recommends accepting the proposal from Wightman Petrie for the demolition proposal and asbestos survey at the funding level of $7,000. Upon a motion by Mr. Downes, seconded by Mr. Hunt and unanimously carried, the Commission approved the request for professional services in the South Bend Central Development Area and authorized staff to retain Wightman Petrie based on the scope of services and fee proposed. 8 COMMISSION APPROVED THE REQUEST FOR PROFESSIONAL SERVICES IN THE SOUTH BEND CENTRAL DEVELOPMENT AREA AND AUTHORIZED STAFF TO RETAIN WIGHTMAN PETRIE BASED ON THE SCOPE OF SERVICES AND FEE PROPOSED. South Bend Redevelopment Commission Regular Meeting — February 4, 2005 6. NEW BUSINESS (CONT.) B. South Bend Central Development Area (2) Commission authorization requested for AIDS Ministries /AIDS Assist to use the Wayne Street Garage on June 24, July 22, and August 19, 2005 for the Rooftop Rendezvous. Mr. Williams reported that the AIDS Ministries /AIDS Assist of North Indiana has requested the use of the Wayne Street Garage for their annual Rooftop Rendezvous in June, July and August of 2005. This event has always been well run and has become a regular event in the downtown area. As in the past, security and clean -up will be provided. This event started in 1996 and will be the ninth annual event. Staff recommends approval. Mr. Inks added that staff recognizes no obligation or commitment on the City's part to continue this event in the future, or at the Wayne Street Garage location. Staff will be working, however, with AIDS Ministries /AIDS Assist to continue the event, whether at the Wayne Street Garage location or at an alternate location in the downtown. Mr. Hunt recommended approval of the first event in June, and tentative approval of the July and August events, pending no significant problems occurring at the June event.

Sample -Ewing Development Area (1) continued... Ms. Greene noted that Resolution No. 2129 expresses the Commission's intent to appropriate funds. At the public meeting of February 18, 2005, the Commission will be provided with a Supplemental Resolution that will actually appropriate the funds. Upon a motion by Mr. Downes, seconded by Mr. Blake and unanimously carried, the Commission approved Resolution No. 2129 determining the Commission's intent to pay certain expenses incurred for local public improvements in or serving the Sample - Ewing Allocation Area (South Bend Allocation Area No. 8) from the Sample - Ewing Allocation Area (South Bend Allocation Area No. 8) Special Fund and setting a Public Hearing on said appropriation at 10:00 a.m., February 18, 2005. (2) Staff report on disposition of property in the Sample -Ewing Development Area (Lot #1, Oliver Industrial Park). Mr. Laurent reported that the Redevelopment Commission placed Lot #1 in the Oliver Industrial Park for public bid in May 2003. No bids were received for the land until a proposal was submitted by Studebaker Partners, L.P., a subsidiary of Holladay Properties, on August 30, 2004. The proposal showed a site plan that contained 25,000 square feet of leasable industrial space and the potential for an additional 23,500 square feet in subsequent development phases. 12 COMMISSION APPROVED RESOLUTION NO. 2129 DETERMINING THE COMMISSION'S INTENT TO PAY CERTAIN EXPENSES INCURRED FOR LOCAL PUBLIC IMPROVEMENTS IN OR SERVING THE SAMPLE -EWING ALLOCATION AREA (SOUTH BEND ALLOCATION AREA NO. 8) FROM THE SAMPLE -EWING ALLOCATION AREA (SOUTH BEND ALLOCATION AREA NO. 8) SPECIAL FUND AND SETTING A PUBLIC HEARING ON SAID APPROPRIATION AT 10:00 A.M., FEBRUARY 18, 2005. South Bend Redevelopment Commission Regular Meeting — February 4, 2005 6. NEW BUSINESS (CONT.) C. Sample -Ewing Development Area (2) continued... That proposal was conceptually approved by the Redevelopment Commission on September 3, 2004. No architectural renderings or elevation drawings had been supplied by the developer, so approval of the development was not possible. The developer made its proposal contingent upon a pre -lease agreement for the primary 10,000 square foot space in the building. The developer was in negotiations with a tenant at the time, but a deal was never consummated. Staff received a letter dated January 25, 2005 from Holladay Properties expressing their desire to discontinue the development process at Oliver due to the failure of negotiations with their potential tenant, Trane. Staff has been in communication with both parties involved in the situation and had expressed the desire to have a development agreement in place before February 2005. According to the Holladay letter, Trane was unable to commit to the project. Therefore, Holladay has asked for a refund of their performance bond and cancellation of the development proposal process for Lot #1 at the Oliver Industrial Park. Staff requests that the Commission authorize legal counsel to draft a letter to the developer stating the Commission's acceptance of the terms of their January 25, 2005 letter which would discontinue the development process for Holladay at Oliver Lot #1 and return their performance guarantee of $11,475. 13 South Bend Redevelopment Commission Regular Meeting — February 4, 2005 6. NEW BUSINESS (CONT.) C. Sample -Ewing Development Area (2) continued... Mr. Hunt asked if the Commission would now put the property back on the market. Mr. Laurent replied that was correct. Upon a motion by Mr. Downes, seconded by COMMISSION AUTHORIZED LEGAL COUNSEL TO Mr. Hunt and unanimously carried, the DRAFT A LETTER TO HOLLADAY PROPERTIES Commission authorized legal counsel to draft STATING THE COMMISSION'S ACCEPTANCE OF a letter to Holladay Properties stating the THE TERMS OF THEIR JANUARY 25, 2005 LETTER WHICH WOULD DISCONTINUE THE DEVELOPMENT Commission's acceptance of the terms of PROCESS FOR OLIVER LOT #1 AND RETURN their January 25, 2005 letter which would HOLLADAY'S PERFORMANCE GUARANTEE OF discontinue the development process for $11,475. Oliver Lot #1 and return Holladay's performance guarantee of $11,475. (3) Commission approval requested for Resolution No. 2137 relating to acquisition of real property in the Sample -Ewing Development. The Studebaker /Oliver Plow Works redevelopment strategy calls for the acquisition and clearance of properties that make up Studebaker Area A. That area is bounded by Sample Street, Franklin Street, the Norfolk Southern Railway and Prairie Avenue. The Commission has previously acquired the former South Bend Stamping plant as the first phase of acquisition in Area A. The next property to be acquired is the seven acre former rail yard located directly south of the Stamping Plant. The property is on the acquisition list for the Sample -Ewing Development Area and was placed there on October 3, 2003. Appraisals 14 C South Bend Redevelopment Commission Regular Meeting — February 4, 2005 6. NEW BUSINESS (CONT.) C. Sample -Ewing Development Area (3) continued... have been conducted by MAI certified professional appraisers and the average value of those two (2) appraisals is $103,250. Staff has been in discussions with representatives of Norfolk Southern Railway regarding the property, and the company appears to be a willing seller. The purchase offer to be sent to Norfolk Southern has the following five criteria: 1) Fair market value of $103,250 2) The Commission retains the right to acquire the property through eminent domain. 3) The offer is contingent upon confirmation that the property is free from any environmental condition. 4) The Commission will have twelve (12) months to conduct environmental testing on the property. 5) One hundred percent of the purchase price shall be placed in an escrow account awaiting the results of the environmental investigation. Staff recommends approval of Resolution No. 2137 setting the fair market value and approving a purchase offer for the former rail yard in Studebaker Area A. Ms. Greene noted that this transaction is slightly different than what the Commission generally does in terms of property acquisition, although very consistent with I.C. 36- 7 -14 -19 governing acquisition of IL 15 South Bend Redevelopment Commission Regular Meeting — February 4, 2005 6. NEW BUSINESS (CONT.) C. Sample -Ewing Development Area (3) continued... property. The Commission has the authority by law to purchase property located in a redevelopment area by following the procedure set forth in I.C. 36- 7 -14 -19 that Mr. Laurent has outlined, which is to set a fair offering price, or a fair market value price, based upon the average of two (2) independent appraisals. Under I.C. 36 -7 -14- 20, the Commission also has the authority to use eminent domain if an agreement for purchase of the property cannot be reached and acquisition of the property is necessary If the Commission uses eminent domain there is a separate procedure that must be followed, including a particular format of purchase offer that has to be submitted under the provisions of Indiana's Eminent Domain Act. However, there is nothing in the statute that requires the Commission to automatically resort to eminent domain to purchase property which is why the purchase offer does not contemplate the use of eminent domain. If the Commission did find it necessary, however, to use eminent domain, the Commission would be required to go back and pursue the procedures set forth in I.C. 36- 7 -14 -20 which references the Eminent Domain Act under Indiana law and requires a separate purchase offer in the form prescribed by statute. Mr. Hunt asked if any major environmental issues were anticipated relating to the property. 16 South Bend Redevelopment Commission Regular Meeting — February 4, 2005 6. NEW BUSINESS (CONT.) C. Sample -Ewing Development Area (3) continued... Mr. Laurent responded that staff did not anticipate environmental issues. However, without actually having conducted an environmental assessment of the property, the best guess is that the property would be impacted by the same off -site sources of groundwater conditions as the Oliver site. That is why there is a twelve (12) month environmental testing provision within the purchase offer for investigations, to either cancel the property transaction, or complete environmental clean -up as required using the escrowed funds. Upon a motion by Mr. Hunt, seconded by Mr. Downes and unanimously carried, the Commission approved Resolution No. 2137 relating to acquisition of real property in the Sample -Ewing Development. D. Airport Economic Development Area (1) Commission approval requested for Authorization for Entry upon Public Property for Site Development. (Lot 2A, Toll Road Industrial Park) Mr. Inks requested that Item 6.D.(1) be tabled until the Regular Meeting of February 18, 2005. There were no objections.
