ATTACHMENT TO RESOLUTION NO. 971
January 2, 1991
AIRPORT ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT AREA
FINDINGS OF FACT
1. The Airport Economic Development Area ( "Area ") consists of
approximately 2960 acres in the northwest part of the City of
South Bend, adjacent to the Michiana Regional Airport.
2. The Area is zoned primarily for light and heavy industrial
use, although a small portion is zoned residential.
3. Approximately 79% of the Area is without structures;
approximately 79% of the land is underutilized due to lack of
supporting infrastructure such as streets and utilities.
Thus, the following public improvements are necessary in order
to facilitate development of the Area:
Extension of utilities such as gas, electric and
telephone to the Area and to sites within the Area
Extension of water mains as well as storm and sanitary
sewers to the Area and to sites within the Area
An expansion and extension of the Exit 72 interchange of
the Indiana Toll Road
A widening and extension of Old Cleveland Road, including
all appropriate signage and signalization
Construction of appropriate interior access roads,
including all necessary curb, sidewalk and lighting
improvements, to serve individual sites within the Area
4. It is the goal of the City of South Bend to encourage new
commercial and industrial development in the Area, thereby
diversifying and expanding business opportunities within the
City, increasing the local tax base, and generating new jobs.
Multiple ownership of land in the Area presents an obstacle to
new commercial and industrial development. The current
ownership configuration and plat may be inconsistent with
optimum commercial and industrial development in the Area,
necessitating the acquisition of land to be replatted and
publicly offered for reuse consistent with and in furtherance
of the economic development plan for the Area.
5. It is expected that the development of this Area will produce
a significant increase in the City's overall economic
vitality. To achieve this, however, the Redevelopment
Commission and the City of South Bend must be able to provide
the necessary public improvements to make the site suitable
for new development.
6. It is expected that the development of this Area will also:
Provide new space for the expansion of the existing
Airport Industrial Park, as well as other South Bend
businesses.
- Improve roadway access and circulation in the northwest
portion of the City, surrounding the Michiana Regional
Airport.
- Stimulate increased use and growth of the Michiana
Regional Airport.
- Increase user traffic for the Indiana Toll road,
specifically Exit 72.
- Increase use of the South Shore Railroad (when relocated
to the Michiana Regional Airport).
7. It may be necessary to relocate an electric power transmission
line which crosses the Area.
8. It is expected that the development of this Area will create
approximately 4,712 new jobs, generate about $422,036,000 in
new private investment and increase the City's assessed value
by $84,358,000.
