In connection with the development of Parcel 22 -23, if the proposed use that Mr: Geti is planning does not meet with the Urban Renewal Plan for the LaSalle Park'Project, R -57, then the Commission determines in favor of the parcel beingldeveloped by Mr. Batteast. x The South Bend Housing Corporation plans to develop rent supplement 221-(d)(3) housing on this large portion of land. It was pointed out that the staff is in a position to receive offers for the land which was not bid upon, which consists of about 13.parcels.' However, these particular - parcels reviewed today must be submitted to the Chicago HUD office along with the documentation submitted with - each bid for federal concurrence before the Commission can make a legal transaction for _ property disposal. Upon award of the land, each builder must make a diligent effort o have the property under construction within 18 montha=,'or to show ju tifiable, cause for negligence, or the property will revert back t6 the Red velopment Commission. Also, all building plans must be submitted to the edevelopjnent Commission for approval before securing a building permit, as plans, must meet with.the Urban Renewal Plan for the LaSalle Park Project, R -57. A motion was made by Rev. Kirk for acceptance of these bids, seconded by Mr. Kompar, and carried. A question was asked by Mr. Place as to what use the Laymen Chapel Church had intended for Parcels 33 -9 and 33 -10, and upon being notified it was F' to have been for a parsonage Mr. Place wanted to forfeit his right to these -3- particular parcels. However, it was explained to Mr. Place that the right procedure would 'be to negotiate directly with Laymen Chapel. Mr. Chas. Howell had also ',bid on these particular parcels, and stated he was in agreement that this land should be given church preference over his bid, which appeased to be for the same amount as the Laymen Chapel bid. In answer to Chas. Howell's question, the Commission stated that the same financial information could be incorporated into another bid proposal, for a limited period, such as about 6 months. Mr. Bat east suppositioned that if other large building contractors, such as Mr. Place, would happen to control the bidding to such an extent that no desi able lots would be awarded to the small builder, he asked just how wou d the Commission consider this situation. Mr. Wiggins pointed out tha. this did not happen here today, and the Commission as a -whole confirm !d that this would never be the case. It was pointed out that althouga Place and Company was successful on 21 properties, 16 of these properties= received no other bids. Also Mr. Wiggins expressed the Commission's fee''lings that there was no such thing as t1desirable and undesirable" logs for sale by the Commission in the LaSalle Park Project, R -57, bat in fact all of the lots are desirable. However, the site improvements might be more advanced surrounding some of the lots at the time .of the sale''. After a lengthy discussion was held, the meeting adjourned at 11:45 A. M.
