/s/ Ann Puzzello
Member of the Common Council
A public hearing was held on the resolution at this time. Council Member Luecke
indicated the Human Resources Committee had met on this resolution and recommended
it favorably. Tim Hartzer, attorney, made the presentation for the resolution. He
indicated this property is not located in a Economic Revitalization area. He
indicated this project will generate $492,000 in taxes over the next three years,
with the abatement, and it only generates $7,200 per year at the present time. He
indicated there will be 484 apartments, an office /clubhouse, swimming pool and a
lake, for a total cost of $9,095,000. He asked that the following letter addressed
to Council Member Luecke be entered into the record: "This letter will serve to
communicate the documentation requested by you and members of the Redevelopment
staff pursuant to our proposed development in South Bend, Indiana. As you know our
original site plan for Hurwich Farms Court submitted to South Bend Planning
Department had 492 being proposed. This was, of course, a significant reduction
from the 750 or so units for which the subject property had been rezoned. The
proposed 492 apartments represented our standard approach to creating a very
livable and marketable life style that is almost a trademark. During our initial
meeting with the staff of the South Bend Planning Department it became apparent
that our plans would have to be modified in order to obtain city approval.
Subsequent discussions with staff resulted in a compromise acceptable to both
parties, however, our proposed development was reduced by twenty -eight apartments.
The reduction was primarily a result of needing to add approximately 6,200 square
yards of concrete street pavement, 3,200 lineal feet of curb and gutter together
with all appurtenant sidewalk and drainage systems. Based upon our in house
estimates, we anticipate that the above changes will cost approximately one hundred
and forty -five thousand four hundred dollars ($145,400.00). In addition to the
above costs as previously stated we had plan to construct approximately 492
apartments, however, the changes resulting in additional streets and drives lowered
the overall density. As such, we suffered an economic loss of one building
consisting of approximately 28 apartments which would have generated gross revenues
of one hundred eighteen thousand four hundred and sixty four dollars.
($118,464.00) Glenn and myself would like to thank you and Hedy for meeting with
us on such short notice to clarify any inconsistencies that may have existed
pursuant to our application for tax abatement. We look forward to having an
ongoing present in the City of South Bend. Should you have any questions or desire
additional information prior to our scheduled meeting on August 14, 1989, do not
hesitate to contact met at your convenience. Sincerely, The Sexton Company, Lloyd
J. Tucker, Vice President of Finance. Council Members Slavinskas and Soderberg
indicated they felt giving tax abatement to this company would set a precedent.
Council Member Luecke made a motion to adopt this resolution, seconded by Council
Member Zakrzewski. The resolution was adopted by a roll call vote of seven ayes
and two nays (Council Members Soderberg and Slavinskas.)
