Mrs. Kolata stated that the Redevelopment Authority issued bonds several years ago
to buy land in the Blackthorn Corporate Park area. The Redevelopment Commission
leases the land from the Redevelopment Authority, and as the land is sold, a portion
of the .bonds is defeased. This addendum would release the land which was
purchased by Holy Cross, as well as the optioned two acres, from the terms of the
bond lease...

additional two acres. Mrs. Kolata stated that when the bonds .are paid off, any land

Commission dated as of October 1, 1990.
c. Authority approval requested for Grant of Non-Buildable Perpetual Easement.
The South Bend Chocolate Factory,is leasing and rehabilitating the former CCA
building from the Redevelopment Commission. The building was built to the lot
line and requires a 20' setback in order to be able to have windows and entrance
doors put on the north side of the building. This action will create the 20 foot
setback and ensure that nothing will be built in the 20' area on the north side of the
CCA building. A sidewalk will be built next to the building, and South Bend
Chocolate Factory may also put outside seating and landscaping. in this area. The
curb cut on Michigan Street into the Hall of Fame parking lot, will be removed,
eliminating one exit for the Hall of Fame parking lot. The Hall of Fame parking lot
may also loose a couple of parking spaces, but the Hall of Fame is in support of the
project.
Upon a motion by Mr. Alvarez, seconded by Mr. Kahn and unanimously carried, the
Authority approved the request for non-buildable perpetual easement.
