(St. Joseph /Jefferson Street Garage)
Mr. Williams reported on a potentially
hazardous situation at the St.
Joseph/Jefferson Street Garage located on
the corner of St. Joseph Street and Jefferson
Boulevard. After a routine inspection,
AMPCO detected a hole in the floor of the
sixth level decking which has penetrated to
the deck below. The hole is located on the
ramp area and the realm of decay is much
larger on the underside. This area was
blocked off immediately and remains
blocked off. Paul Fujawa Engineering has
inspected and marked the area in need of
repair. Kaser - Spraker Construction, a
company specializing in this type of repair
work, has been contacted to perform the
repair. The estimate received totaled
approximately $27,000 with a two week
time frame. Levels four through six on the
north end of the garage will be closed during
the maintenance period and traffic will be
re- routed. Staff recommends prompt action
on the repair and accepting the proposal
from Kaser - Spraker.
Upon a motion by Ms. Jones, seconded by
Mr. Kahn and unanimously carried, the
Commission approved the request for
professional services in the South Bend
Central Development Area and authorized
IL staff to retain Kaser - Spraker based on the
scope of services and fee proposed.

separate Easement Agreements.

Ms. Greene noted that if the Commission

would then be responsible for any relocation
expenses. Ms. Greene also noted that the
alternative to granting the easements would
be to purchase out all of the current rights of
Burkhart Advertising at a cost that would be
considerable.

C. Airport Economic Development Area
(1) Commission approval requested for
extension of time for construction in the
Airport Economic Development Area.
(Deluxe Sheet Metal)
Mr. Case reported that a request was
received by Lone Wolf Enterprises, LLC
(Deluxe Sheet Metal) for an extension of
time to complete their construction project
in the Airport Economic Development Area
from April 30, 2003 to July 31, 2003. This
is the third extension of time requested by
Deluxe Sheet Metal. Mr. Case introduced
Mr. Kevin Smith from Deluxe Sheet Metal
to explain the need for additional time.
IL- Mr. Smith advised that there are two reasons
for requesting the extension. The first is the
original roofing materials supplied were not
up to the high standards they have for the
unique building. Replacement of the roofing
materials caused a delay of four to five
months. The second reason was the
uncertainty of what space in their current
location the Studebaker Museum would
take. That issue has been resolved and will
now move forward quite quickly. Mr. Smith
expressed that they plan to be in the building
by the end of July 2003.
Mr. Hunt asked if the July 31, 2003 date was
a reasonably firm date.
Mr. Smith responded that the difficulties
resulted in not knowing exactly what
facilities needed to be replicated, and now
that it is quite clear, further action can be
accomplished quickly.

(1) Commission approval requested for
Memorandum of Understanding (MOU)
between Kite Construction Company and
the City of South Bend Redevelopment
Commission.
Mayor Luecke expressed pleasure in
reporting progress on the Scottsdale Mall
redevelopment project. The Mayor
commended Bill Schalliol, Cheryl Greene
and other Redevelopment Staff for their hard
ILwork to bring this project before the
Commission today. The City is requesting
the Commission's approval of a
Memorandum of Understanding (MOU)
between the Commission on behalf of the
City of South Bend and Kite Construction,
so that the project can move forward. The
MOU outlines in broad forms commitments
on the part of both the City and Kite
Construction for redevelopment of the
Scottsdale Mall property. In its current
condition, Scottsdale Mall is a blighting
influence on the South Side. The vacancy
rate and lack of interest in the property by
existing retailers has put the mall in dire
straights, and the City has an important role
to play in allowing redevelopment to move
forward. The MOU is the first step and is
non - binding. The next step, the
Development Agreement, will be more
detailed and will spell out specific
requirements on the parts of both the City
and Kite Construction. The MOU does,

however, provide a general outline for how
the City expects this project to move
forward. The City is committing public
funds to the project which will be generated
through a Sales Tax Increment Finance
District and potentially through a Tax
Increment Finance District. Those funds
could be used for a variety of public
purposes in preparing the site, including the
moving of power transmission lines, site
preparation, demolition of buildings,
environmental remediation, storm water
management, and public walkways and
traffic ways on site— all as a means of
IL making this a viable site for redevelopment.
The Mayor noted that the City believes in
smart growth and it is much more important
to redevelop this existing prime piece of real
estate, rather than to see the development
happen elsewhere. Kite has both the
experience and the capacity to develop an
exciting retail site at this location and the
City is delighted to have Kite as a partner in
this development project. Mayor Luecke
introduced Mr. Paul Kite to speak to the
Commission.
Mr. Kite advised the Commission that the
project is moving forward. They have
already purchased the vacant Montgomery
Wards property and are about to close on the
balance of the property, which is the mall
itself. They expect the Wards building and
the tire store in front will be demolished by
June, including remediation of an old tank at
IL the tire store. Kite expects to have new
buildings ready for occupancy by July 2004

which will be the Phase I opening. Over the
following year, gradual redevelopment of
the entire site will be completed. Kite has
been working with the existing tenants,
some of which are going to stay; others
would like to leave, and remaining leases
will be bought out. Kite hopes as the project
develops, tenants will like the quality of
development and will choose to stay. Kite is
also working with several new tenants that
are not currently in this market and will be
coming to the area by means of STIF
financing. Primarily, Kite will be creating a
very nice "village type" environment with
outdoor seating, nice lighting, restaurants,
retail space and lots of amenities for people
who visit the site. Kite believes the mall
redevelopment is a great project and they are
looking forward to getting started.
Mayor Luecke added that the Mall
redevelopment project will set a tone for
future investment on the South Side as a
viable regional market place.
Mr. Hunt commented that he believes the
residents on the South Side will receive
redevelopment of the area with great
enthusiasm.

Mr. Kahn and unanimously carried, the
