(1) Public Hearing on Resolution No. 2105
expanding the boundaries of the South
Bend Central Development Area,
expanding the Allocation Area for
Purposes of Tax Increment Financing
and Amending the Development Plan
for the South Bend Central
Development Area.
Mr. Mathia explained that Resolution
No. 2105 will expand the South Bend
Central Development Area (SBCDA)
boundary and the South Bend Central
Allocation Area No. IA tax increment
financing district to include the area
described as "Expansion Area No.7."
This Expansion Area takes in the
remaining portion of the UUEHL
campus that is not currently in the
SBCDA. It also includes a parking lot
located on the northwest corner of
Washington and St. Louis that was
recently acquired by UUEHL. Finally,
Expansion Are No. 7 takes in a row of
properties on the southeast corner of
Washington and St. Louis. Resolution
2105 also adds one of those properties to
the acquisition list.

A. Public Hearing
(1) continued...
Considerable economic growth is
occurring at the east central boundary of
the SBCDA. Further economic growth
will be stifled if room for development is
not approached in an integrated and
coordinated fashion. In order to assure
that such growth occurs it is necessary to
expand the eastern boundary of the
development area. Expansion Area No. 7
contains several parcels that are vacant
and others that contain residences, rental
housing, surface parking lots, offices and
commercial /light industrial activities.
Many residences are in deteriorating
condition. Expansion of the
development area and acquisition of
property by the Commission at this time
will complement and facilitate efforts to
carry out the development plan for the
area.
Inclusion of Expansion Area No. 7 as
part of the SBCDA will permit
development to grow along the eastern
border in an orderly fashion and in a
timely manner. Failure to include the
Expansion Area, as proposed, may force
entities in the South Bend Central
Development Area to relocate out of the
area which would impair the City and the
Commission's efforts to achieve the goals
and objectives of the Development Plan.
The Commission is requested to approve
the resolution to expand the boundaries
of the SBCDA and Allocation Area

No. IA and to add one property to the
acquisition list. Staff recommends
approval. Expansion of the SBCDA and
Allocation Area No. IA to include
Expansion Area No. 7 and acquisition of
the property is reasonable, appropriate
and necessary to implement the
development plan for the SBCDA and
more particularly the East Bank. The
addition of the expansion area and the
addition of the property to the acquisition
list conform to the comprehensive plan
for the SBCDA.

Mr. Inks noted that the amount of the
loan is $3,650. The grant is $7,500.
Mr. Hunt questioned the wisdom of our
making a loan to someone who will then
have a negative monthly income. Ms.
Greene noted that the staff who works
with each applicant follow a set of loan
guidelines consistent with HUD lending.
The Commission could approve the loan
subject to further discussion with staff.
Mr. Hunt indicated that he would like
staff to attend the Commission meeting
when there are loans that might raise
questions.
Mr. Inks noted that this applicant will not
have any additional monthly expense due
to this loan. Her monthly income was a
negative amount before our loan. There
are no monthly payments. The loan will
be repaid from her estate after she dies.

(3) Staff report on acquisition of property
in the Airport Economic Development
Area. (Bosch)
Ms. Hughes noted that Resolution
No. 2064 previously amended the Airport
Economic Development Area
Development Plan to add twenty -five
properties to the acquisition list. These
properties are part of a voluntary
acquisition strategy the Commission and
redevelopment staff has initiated to
facilitate the eventual expansion of the
Bosch corporate facility. Resolution No.
2108 set the acquisition price for these
properties based on the average of two
independent appraisals. On this basis
written offers were sent by Certified Mail
to the individual property owners.
Today we have counter offers for seven
of these properties. Staff has worked to
ensure fairness in the negotiation process
with all involved and finds these counter
offers reasonable and within the budget
originally laid out for the project. The
prices are closely aligned with
assessment values and other factors have
been taken into consideration on an
individual basis.

Ms. Greene noted that I.C. 36- 7 -14 -19

independent appraisals to determine a fair

form the basis for the Commission's offering
price as established in Resolution No. 2064.
After tendering an offer based upon the
appraisals, the statute authorizes the
Commission to negotiate with the property
owner. and The Commission may, in fact,
pay more than the average of the two
appraisals if the Commission authorizes the
higher price at a Commission meeting, which
is what is being asked of the Commission at

submitted a proposal in the amount of
$16,800, which is slightly more than the
$16,600 the City of South Bend paid for the
property when it purchased it from the
Indiana Department of Transportation earlier
this year.
The staff recommends conditional approval
of the offer from KSK Scottsdale Mall LLC
on the condition that no other proposals are
received prior to the end of the 30 day
waiting period (November 8). Staff also
recommends that the Commission stipulate
that: (1) the property must be used as part of
ILthe development of an adjacent 425 -500 sft
shopping center development or retail village
center; (2) The property should be used in
coordination with the construction of a
second anchor tenant for the project with
consistent materials and consistent
appearance; (3) Site improvements must be
finished on the site. One specific
improvement that will be noted in the
Contract for Sale of Land is the Argyle Drive
pedestrian improvement project (a pedestrian
connection from Argyle Dr. to the front of
the Target store).
Ms. Greene noted that disposition of property
is covered by I.C. 36- 7- 14 -22. The
Commission met its obligation when it
originally put this property up for bid through

bids were received for the property. The

October 8, it cannot actually consummate the
