SOUTH BEND REDEVELOPMENT COMMISSION
AMENDING THE BOUNDARIES OF THE SOUTH SIDE
DEVELOPMENT AREA AND THE SOUTH SIDE DEVELOPMENT

THE DEVELOPMENT PLAN FOR SAID AREA AND REGARDING
RELATED MATTERS
WHEREAS, the South Bend Redevelopment Commission (the “Commission”), the
governing body of the City of South Bend, Indiana, Department of Redevelopment (the
“Department”) exists and operates under the provisions of the Redevelopment of Cities and Towns
Act of 1953 which has been codified in Indiana Code 36-7-14, as amended from time to time (the
“Act”); and
WHEREAS, the Commission has previously designated and declared an area in the
City of South Bend, Indiana (the “City”), presently known as the South Side Development Area
(the “Existing Area”), as a redevelopment area and as an allocation area for purposes of tax
increment financing (the “Existing Allocation Area”), has previously adopted a Development Plan
for the Existing Area, which development plan has been amended from time to time (the “Existing
Plan”) and has established an allocation fund for said Existing Allocation Area; and
WHEREAS, the Commission adopted a confirming resolution on November 10,
2014, confirming a declaratory resolution previously adopted by the Commission (i) designating
and declaring a certain area within the City to be a redevelopment area and an allocation area for
purposes of tax increment financing to expand the Existing Area and the Existing Allocation Area,
respectively, to include the former Scottsdale Community Center in the Existing Area; (ii) adding
the Scottsdale Community Center to the property acquisition list for the Existing Area ; and (iii)
approving an amendment to the development plan for the Existing Area; and
WHEREAS, the Commission adopted a confirming resolution on June 13, 2019,
confirming a declaratory resolution previously adopted by the Commission (i) transferring territory
from the River West Development Area to the Existing Area; (ii) amending the boundaries of the
Existing Area to add certain territory; and (iii) approving an amendment to the development plan
for the Existing Area; and
WHEREAS, the Commission now desires to amend the boundaries of the Existing
Area to add certain other territory, more particularly depicted on the map set forth in Exhibit A
attached hereto and made a part hereof (collectively, the “Expansion Areas” and collectively with
the Existing Area, the “Area”) (a description of the Area, after including the Expansion Areas, is
set forth in Exhibit B attached hereto and made a part hereof); and

WHEREAS, in conjunction with said boundary amendments, the Commission
desires to amend and restate the Existing Plan (the Existing Plan as amended and restated, the
“Amended and Restated Plan”); and
WHEREAS, the Department, pursuant to the Act, has conducted surveys and
investigations and has thoroughly studied the Expansion Areas; and
WHEREAS, upon such surveys, investigations and studies being made, the
Commission finds that the Amended and Restated Plan, cannot be achieved by regulatory
processes or by the ordinary operations of private enterprise without resort to the powers allowed
under the Act because of lack of local public improvements and multiple ownership of land and
that public health and welfare will be benefited by the accomplishment of the Amended and
Restated Plan for the Area; and
WHEREAS, there was presented to this meeting of the Commission for its
consideration and approval, a copy of the Amended and Restated Plan, a copy of which is attached
hereto as Exhibit C and made a part hereof; and
WHEREAS, the Commission has caused to be prepared maps and plats of the Area,
said maps and plats of the Area showing the boundaries of the Expansion Areas; the location of
the various parcels of property, streets and alleys, and other features affecting the acquisition,
clearance, replatting, replanning, rezoning, redevelopment or economic development of the
Expansion Areas; and the parts of the Expansion Areas that are to be devoted to public ways,
levees, sewerage, parks, playgrounds and other public purposes under the plans for the
redevelopment of the Expansion Areas as adopted herein; and
WHEREAS, the Commission has determined to amend the property acquisition list
for the Area (the “Area Acquisition List”) to add certain additional parcels of real property in the
Area to the Area Acquisition List to provide for possible acquisition of such parcels in furtherance
of the Amended and Restated Plan, which parcels are listed in Exhibit D attached hereto and made
a part of hereof; and
WHEREAS, Section 39 of the Act has been enacted and amended to permit the
creation of allocation areas within an area needing redevelopment to provide for the allocation and
distribution, as provided in the Act, of the proceeds of taxes levied on property situated in an
allocation area, and the Commission deems it advisable to expand the Existing Allocation Area to
include the Expansion Areas with a base date for such Expansion Areas as determined by Section
39 of the Act; and
WHEREAS, in determining the location and extent of the Expansion Areas, the
Commission has determined that no residents of the Expansion Areas will be displaced by the
redevelopment thereof in furtherance of the Amended and Restated Plan; and
WHEREAS, the Amended and Restated Plan, conforms to other development and
redevelopment plans for the City; and
WHEREAS, the Commission desires for this Resolution 3613 to supersede and
replace Resolution 3608.

NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED by the South Bend Redevelopment
Commission as follows:
1. The Commission hereby finds that the Expansion Areas are “areas needing
redevelopment” within the meaning of Section 15 of the Act.
2.The Commission hereby finds and determines that the Expansion Areas are
areas needing redevelopment to an extent that cannot be corrected by regulatory processes or by
the ordinary operations of private enterprise without resort to the powers allowed under the Act,
and that public health and welfare will be benefited by the redevelopment of the Expansion Areas
under the Act.
3.The Commission hereby finds and determines that it will be of public utility
and benefit to include the Expansion Areas in the Existing Area to amend the boundaries of the
Existing Area as set forth herein and redevelop the Expansion Areas under the Act pursuant to the
Amended and Restated Plan and any additional area to be acquired under the amendment is
designed as part of the existing redevelopment project area under the Act.
4.The Commission hereby finds and determines that the Amended and
Restated Plan conforms to other development and redevelopment plans for the City.
5.The Amended and Restated Plan is in all respects approved.
6.The maps and plats of the Area showing the Expansion Areas and their
respective boundaries, the location of the various parcels of property, streets and alleys, and other
features affecting the acquisition, clearance, replatting, replanning, rezoning, redevelopment or
economic development of the Expansion Areas, and the parts of the Expansion Areas that are to
be devoted to public ways, levees, sewerage, parks, playgrounds and other public purposes under
the Amended and Restated Plan, are hereby approved and adopted as the maps and plats for the
Area, the Expansion Areas, respectively.
7.The list of the parcels of property set forth at Exhibit D which may be
acquired in furtherance of the Amended and Restated Plan is hereby approved.
8.The Commission hereby approves of the transfer of the parcels of property
listed at Exhibit E from the River West Acquisition List to the Area Acquisition List.
9.The Expansion Areas are hereby designated as an “allocation area” pursuant
to Section 39 of the Act for purposes of the allocation and distribution of property taxes on real
property for the purposes and in the manner provided by said Section. The Existing Allocation
Area shall hereafter be deemed to include the Expansion Areas and as expanded, the Existing
Allocation Area shall be referred to hereinafter as the “Allocation Area”. Based on an examination
of the Area and information provided to the Commission, the Commission hereby finds that the
adoption of the allocation provision as provided herein will result in new property taxes in the
Area that would not have been generated but for the adoption of the allocation provision because
of the lack of local public improvements which has resulted in a less than desirable level of private
-4 -
capital investment in the Expansion Areas. Any property taxes subsequently levied by or for the
benefit of any public body entitled to a distribution of property taxes on taxable property in said
allocation area shall be allocated and distributed as follows:
Except as otherwise provided in said Section 39, the proceeds of taxes attributable to the lesser of
the assessed value of the property for the assessment date with respect to which the allocation and
distribution is made, or the base assessed value, shall be allocated to and when collected paid into
the funds of the respective taxing units. Except as otherwise provided in said Section 39, property
tax proceeds in excess of those described in the previous sentence shall be allocated to the
redevelopment district and when collected paid into the South Side Development Area Allocation
Area No. 1 Allocation Fund for said allocation area that may be used by the redevelopment district
to do one or more of the things specified in Section 39(b)(3) of the Act, as the same may be
amended from time to time. Said allocation fund may not be used for operating expenses of the
Commission. This allocation provision shall expire with respect to the Expansion Areas on the
later of twenty-five (25) years from the date of issuance of debt secured by the allocated property
taxes, or at such time as no bonds payable from allocated property taxes are outstanding. Except
as otherwise provided in the Act, before June 15 of each year, the Commission shall take the
actions set forth in Section 39(b)(4) of the Act
10.“Property Taxes” referred to herein shall mean taxes imposed under IC 6-
1.1 on real property only.
11.The Secretary of the Commission is directed to file a certified copy of the
Amended and Restated Plan with the minutes of this meeting.
12.The officers of the Commission are hereby directed to make any and all
required filings and recordings with the Indiana Department of Local Government Finance, the St.
Joseph County Auditor and the St. Joseph County Recorder in connection with the actions of the
Commission contained in this Resolution regarding the Allocation Area, as amended hereby.
13.This Resolution, together with supporting data, shall be submitted to the
Area Plan Commission and the Common Council of the City, as provided by Section 16 of the
Act, for the approval of this Resolution and the Amended and Restated Plan, and if approved by
both bodies, this Resolution and the Amended and Restated Plan shall be submitted to public
hearing and remonstrance as provided by Sections 17 of the Act, after public notice in accordance
with Sections 17 and 17.5 of the Act and Indiana Code 5-3-1 and after all required filings with
governmental agencies and officers have been made pursuant to Sections 17(b) and 17(c) of the
Act.
14.All orders or resolutions in conflict herewith are hereby rescinded, revoked
and repealed in so far as such exist.
15.This Resolution does not affect any rights or liabilities accrued, penalties
incurred, offenses committed, or (except as otherwise provided herein) proceedings begun before
the effective date of this Resolution.
16. This Resolution replaces and supersedes Resolution 3608.
-5 -
17.This Resolution shall be in full force and effect after its adoption by the
Commission.

Tax Increment Financing (“TIF”) District
The South Bend Redevelopment Commission may implement the use of TIF within a
redevelopment area pursuant to state law (I.C. 36-7-14).
TIF districts target blighted areas in order to transform them into viable areas making the
community more appealing and attractive for economic development, which creates a better
quality of life for the districts’ residents. TIF districts are powerful and effective tools that may
provide financing for infrastructure improvements within redevelopment projects which may, in
turn, entice market dollars back into abandoned and dilapidated areas. The lifespan of a TIF
district varies based upon the time of its creation.
TIF creates revenues for improvements without raising taxes, offers incentives for businesses
and developers, and builds communities. TIF works by capturing additional property tax revenue
due to the revitalization of a designated area. The assessment rate of the year in which the TIF is
established is used as the base year, and tax revenues generated due to the increase in
assessment over the base year assessment of properties within the TIF district are set aside for
use in that TIF district. Thus, no new taxes or increases in tax rates occur, rather TIF funds are
generated when property values improve due to the overall improvement of the TIF district.

Statutory Findings
The South Side Development Area Plan meets the following required findings by the
Redevelopment Commission pursuant to State Law (36-7-14-15(a)):
1. The South Side Development Area is an area in the territory under its jurisdiction and
is an area needing redevelopment;
2. The conditions described in state law (I.C. 36-7-1-3) cannot be corrected in the South
Side Development Area by regulatory processes or the ordinary operations of private
enterprise without resorting to state law (I.C. 36-7-14);
3. The public health and welfare will be benefitted by the amendment of the resolution
or plan, or both, for the South Side Development Area; and
4. The amendment is reasonable and appropriate when considered in relation to the
original resolution or plan for the South Side Development Area and the purposes of
state law (I.C. 36-7-14); and
5. The resolution or plan, with the proposed amendment, conforms to the
comprehensive plan for the City.
Acquisition of Real Property in the South Side Development Area
In connection with the accomplishment of this South Side Development Plan, the South Bend
Redevelopment Commission shall include all added parcels with the boundaries set forth above
on the acquisition list attached as Appendix C and shall follow the procedures set forth in state
law (I.C. 36-7-14-19 or I. C. 36-7-14-19.5).
Estimated Costs of Acquisition and Economic Development
to the South Side Development Area
Because the Commission does not intend to acquire property for the potential projects, the
Commission will not incur any costs of acquisition. However, the Commission will incur certain
costs in connection with the development of the potential projects. The estimated cost of the
potential projects is not expected to exceed an amount that can be raised based on the amount
of tax increment revenues generated in the Allocation Area.
Procedure for Amendment of the South Side Development Area Plan
The South Side Development Area Plan may be amended by resolution of the South Bend
Redevelopment Commission in accordance with state law (I.C. 36-7-14-17.5), which currently
has requirements for Council and public input and comment.. Any change affecting any property
or contractual right may be made only in accordance with applicable state and local laws.
