Staff report on disposition of property in the Sample -Ewing Development Area. (Parcel 19) Mrs. Kolata noted that there were two proposals for the purchase of Parcel 19 which is located on the east side of Main Street between Garst and Stull in the Sample -Ewing Development Area. The Firefighters Federal Credit Union propose to: 1) purchase the former Policemen's Federal Credit Union building for $100; 2) purchase Parcel 19 for $38,000 (original offer, $20,000); 3) move the former Policemen's Federal Credit Union to Parcel 19 for use as their main office. The purchase price of $38,000 is conditioned on the following: 1) Redeveloment moving the NIPSCO high pressure gas line to the north end of the -4- COMMISSION APPROVED THE PROPOSAL FROM MAYER GOLOUBOW FOR PROFESSIONAL SERVICES IN THE WEST WASHINGTON - CHAPIN DEVELOPMENT AREA AT A COST NOT TO EXCEED $825 South Bend Redevelopment Commission Regular Meeting - October 21, 1994 6.

Lafayette (former Policemen's Federal Credit Union) to match the grade level. Mrs. Kolata reviewed the second proposal which was from Champion Soft Water Incorporated. Champion Soft Water proposes to purchase Parcel 19 for $30,000 and construct a 5,000 square foot building to consolidate their operations from two locations. Details of their planned development are not available yet since they have just begun to plan the details of the project, however they are currently talking to builders. There are no conditions on this proposal. They would not require moving of utilities. The staff has prepared a chart showing the pros and cons of each proposal. -5- South Bend Redevelopment Commission Regular Meeting - October 21, 1994 6. NEW BUSINESS (Cont.) p. continued... 1.

It was submitted in -7- VANK South Bend Redevelopment Commission Regular Meeting - October 21, 1994 6. NEW BUSINESS (Cont.) p. continued... accordance with the Commission's requirements that a proposal contain site plans, schematic drawings, a construction timetable, etc. He noted that the proposed purchase price of $100 for the former PCFU building includes the cost factors for moving the building and demolishing the foundation and filling it in. Mr. Masters noted that Parcel 19 is in rough condition. They received an estimate of $12,555 for site preparation. Mr. Masters suggested that symetry is achieved by locating the Firefighter's Federal Credit Union next to the new Policemen's Federal Credit Union. The Firefighter's Federal Credit Union has approximately 1,900 members. The new facility will be larger and the Firefighter's Federal Credit Union will be able to provide more services to their members than they can at the present location. Mr. Masters noted that Parcel 19 includes a vacated alley. Alleys contain utility easements. There is a 10" high pressure NIPSCO gas line in that vacated alley. There are three Ameritech telephone lines in the vacated alley. Those utility easements were not shown on the survey provided by the Commission in the bid proposal. Mr. Fuelling discovered the existence of those utility easements. Ef API South Bend Redevelopment Commission Regular Meeting - October 21, 1994 6. NEW BUSINESS (Cont.) p. continued... Mr. Masters noted that it is the job of the Redevelopment Commission to take land that is not otherwise suitable for development and make it marketable. Those utility easements will need to be addressed by the Commission in order for the land to be sold. The Firefighter's Federal Credit Union's revised proposal provides the Commission with the up -front cash to move the utilities from the vacated alley. The revised proposal then asks the Commission to absorb some of the costs that the Firefighter's Federal Credit Union had intended to pay for. Mr. Masters noted that the Firefighter's Federal Credit Union is prepared to move ahead on this project as soon as the Commission approves the proposal. Mr. Fuelling displayed a schematic drawing of the proposed project on Parcel 19. The project allows for expansion on the south to add additional drive -thru lanes and an ATM machine and for a 16 foot addition to the building on the north side. It is the 16 foot addition to the building that requires the relocation of the utilities. Mr. Sharp noted that the Firefighter's Federal Credit Union project is very nice. He was concerned, however, with the cost of moving the utilities. He asked if there wasn't some latitude in the location of the building and drives on the property so that moving the utilities could be avoided. ME South Bend Redevelopment Commission Regular Meeting - October 21, 1994 6. NEW BUSINESS (Cont.) p. continued... Mr. Fuelling responded that the intended expansions limit the placement of the building on the site. Mr. Sharp questioned the need for the drive on the south side of the project. Mr. Fuelling explained that the drive is needed for trash haulers. Removing that drive would only remove 12 feet from the project. With the expansions, the project would be 15 feet into the easements. Ms. Auburn asked if the property would be taxed if owned by the Firefighter's Federal Credit Union. Mr. Masters responded that it would be. Mr. Piasecki asked if the building could be reconfigured inside to allow for a different footprint on the site. Mr. Fuelling responded that the Firefighter's Federal Credit Union had not looked at that possiblity because they were trying to conserve costs by using the building as it exists. To change that, they would have to resubmit their plans to the state for approval. Mr. Masters noted that since the Commission's estimates for clearing Parcel 19 and demolishing and filling the basement of the Policemen's Federal Credit Union are more than the Firefighter's Federal Credit Union's estimates, the Commission would be further ahead to accept the original proposal which called for the purchase of Parcel 19 for $20,000. -10- South Bend Redevelopment Commission Regular Meeting - October 21, 1994 6. NEW BUSINESS (Cont.) p. continued... Lee Heppenheimer, representing Champion Soft Water in their proposal, explained that Mr. and Mrs. Pryor came into his office three weeks ago asking for assistance finding a site for relocating their business. Champion Soft Water has been in business for 10 years. The Pryors want a location on Main Street because of the amount of traffic that uses Main Street. When they contacted the staff about the possiblity of making a proposal for the land, they were told that another proposal was already submitted and would be considered by the Commission soon. The staff suggested that Champion Soft Water could also submit a proposal and the Commission would consider both. Champion Soft Water has tried to hurry along the process in order to have more information to present to the Commission, but the timing of their interest has limited their ability to provide the information usually required in a proposal. They do expect to construct a 5,000 square foot steel building with a masonry front, similar to the building Richard Allen has built at Main and Broadway, but nicer. Mr. Heppenheimer noted that Champion Soft Water does not need the utility lines moved because they will put a parking lot over the vacated alley. Mr. Pryor noted that he and his wife bring value wherever they locate. They want to locate in the City of South Bend. They Sf! South Bend Redevelopment Commission Regular Meeting - October 21, 1994 intend to expand their operations to include bottling water once they are in the new building. Mr. Pryor noted that they do not want to fight with the Firefighter's Federal Credit Union. They were encouraged to put the proposal forward, although it was not complete. They expect to begin construction in the spring of 1995 and complete it by fall, 1995. Mr. Sharp said that while he liked the idea of the Firefighters Federal Credit Union being located on that site, he was interested in reducing the cost to Redevelopment. He suggested that the Firefighters Federal Credit Union go back and revise their proposal to come up with a proposal that reduces the cost to Redevelopment - hopefully to nothing. He would be happy if Redevelopment could break even. Mr. Sharp made a motion to table action on the proposals until the next week, asking the Firefighters Federal Credit Union to go back to their board and return with a revised proposal that reduced the cost to Redevelopment. Ms. Auburn seconded the motion. Ms. Manier pointed out that both proposals were still being considered. At that point Mr. Pryor stated that they would like to withdraw their proposal. Ms. Auburn called the question and the motion was passed. Upon a motion by Mr. Sharp, seconded by COMMISSION TABLED ITEM 6.P. Mr. Piasecki and unanimously carried, the Commission tabled item 6.p. and asked the Firefighters Federal Credit Unoin to bring a revised offer to the next Commission meeting. -12- South Bend Redevelopment Commission Regular Meeting - October 21, 1994 6.
