1. Resolution No. 3516 (Accepting Transfer of Property from BPW 6 parcels
Portage and Rex)
Mr. Relos presented Resolution No. 3516 (Accepting Transfer of Property from
BPW 6 parcels Portage and Rex). This Resolution accepts the six vacant lots
from the Board of Public Works that approved a matching resolution on January
28, 2020. We will then take the parcels through the disposition process. These
are south and east of the old Ward Building that has been falling into disrepair.
We hopefully will have a future project in that location. Commission approval is
requested.

South Bend Redevelopment Commission Regular Meeting — February 6, 2020
submitted on Thursday, February 6, 2020.
A. River East Development Area
1. Budget Request (Riverwalk from Beyer Street to Howard Park)
Ms. Boyles presented a Budget Request (Riverwalk from Beyer Street to Howard
Park). This is a budget request to support the Governor Kernan Trail also known
as the Riverwalk Trail from Beyer Street to Howard Park. The request is for
$340,000 to augment the existing project. There are two park bonds along with
insurance proceeds that will fund this project once the pay out from the entirety of
the 2018 insurance flood claim is complete. The improvements to the lower walk
will also include removal of some areas of the walk that will encourage usage of
the upper walk. The 10' trail will encourage walking and activity on the upper
walk, the lower walk will be for fishing with a few overlooks created. The lower
portion will not be maintained as a sidewalk as it continues to flood even with
minor rainfall event. The area is less than'/2 a mile from Howard Park to under
the Cooper Street Bridge. The entirety of the bid is $3.199M with an
approximately 5% contingency in the budget. The insurance coverage will cover
all of the WPA work. The park bonds are specific to the work/coverage that can
be completed. This will complete the parks master plan work in that area.
Commission approval is requested.
Upon a motion by Commissioner Ferlic, seconded by Secretary Phillips, the
motion carried unanimously, the Commission approved the Budget Request
(Riverwalk from Beyer Street to Howard Park) submitted on Thursday, February
6, 2020.
