Sincerely, 7�r' 36 v f 3oard o£ Pub ,nMAY 20 PVy Property Award Letter From: Lawrence Magliozzi To: Angie Jacob Date: 5/22/01 1:40PM Subject: Re: City Property Award Letter OK, we have two issues here. The first is that the estimates that you gave me for advertising was a total of a high of $40 ($20 per paper). Although only estimates, I used these to be included in the advertised sale price. I will be talking to Mr. Ludwig to see if he is willing to pay the extra, which is $38.88. The second is that this is the first that I have been made aware of a Purchase Agreement. Does this have to be done before the Board approves the sale, or after? I also need to see what the Agreement looks like. Do you have one, or do I get it from Legal? We will have to adjust how we advertise these "adjacent" properties. Unlike other city lot sales, the law clearly states that the sale price must be included in the advertising and in the notice to the adjacent property owners. So, in the future, I will calculate a sale price without including the advertising and recording cost. Probably should have done this anyway. I will amend future ads to indicate that other costs associated with advertising and recording will be assessed. As a point of information, the Recorder now charges $14.00 for Deeds. The Fee Schedule does not differentiate between the different kinds of deeds. Frank: Due to our advertising a set price, but needing to cover higher advertising costs, can we still sell this property to Mr. Ludwig? If he agrees to the higher sale price, does that still make it right? I suspect that we have to sell at the advertised sale price, even if Mr. Ludwig agrees to pay the higher cost. Angie: I need to know who the checks are payable to. Is the advertising costs payable to Board of Public Works? Is a separate check needed for the cost of the lot, and to whom is the check made out to? The City of South Bend? Also, I need to include an estimates $$ cost of your time for future sale price estimates. I already have mine and Legal's. Please give me your approximation of the average time you spend on each property transaction to the nearest hour, and what the hourly rate would be. As an example, I used 4 hours for my time, and 2 hours for Legal time. Frank and Angie: I told Mr. Ludwig that he would be responsible for recording the deed, therefore we should not be recouping the recording fee. If this is an activity that we need to perform, please inform me so that I can give Mr. Ludwig the proper instructions. Once we get these details straightened out, I will redraft the procedures sent to you earlier. I would still like to see this on the Agenda Session, if possible. I will plan on attending unless told otherwise. Thanks for all your time on this. This procedure is actually turning out to be more time consuming and complicated than what we have done in the past, but there are some obvious benefits relative to marketing these properties. If we are real successful, we'll sell them all and not have to worry about vacant lots anymorell Larry Magliozzi Community Development 1200 County -City Building South Bend, IN 46601 Phone: (219) 235-5550 Fax: (219) 235-9697 Imaglioz@ci.south-bend.in.us >>> Angie Jacob 05/22/01 06:51AM >>> This is what the Board sends out.

CC: Frank Schaffer e: 619 Indiana -------- --------- ------- Page-1 , From: Lawrence Magliozzi To: Angie Jacob Date: 5/21 /01 4:51 PM Subject: Re: 619 Indiana Per previous e-mail, I will for the time being process those that are adjacent to our lots. That's because f will be actively marketing many of the City's lots for sale to the adjacent owners. All others should remain with you (the Board) and follow what you have done in the past. If you get a request, the first determination will be if it is from an adjacent owner. If it is, I will process. If not, then you will process. For Ludwig, I sent him an "award" letter, which you now have. I am almost done redrafting the procedures for vacant lot sales. I will send to you, Aladean and Frank for review.
