COOPERATION AGREEMENTS INDIANA R -29 Mr. Sucher explained to the Commission that the Urban Renewal Administration requiresra Corperation Agreement with the South Bend Housing Authority, South Bend Board "of Works and the South Bend Park Commissioners binding them to'make necessary site improvements in the Chapin Street Indiana R -29 Area for whic we are claiming credit. Since none of these agencies have the right to make commitments for f ture years contingent commitments will presumably be accep ed. am VII. PROGRESS REPORT Mr. Michael B. Lynch, Field Manager, Interstate Demo- lition Company, appeared before theCommission requesting that inasmuch as his demolition contract expires on April 20th, he would very much like to be released from the demolition of structures turned over to him since about March 1, 1963, since he states it would be a losing proposition for him to take the remaining structures down. Mr, Baer stated that under the demolition contract commit- ment anything turned over to the demolition company before Apri 20, 1963, would have to be completed.
