West/802 Napoleon
Chairperson Gavin Ferlic opened the meeting.
A presentation was given by Kathy Hahn and Dale DeVon from DeVon Builders. The
taxes that would be paid and the taxes abated were both mentioned.
Dr. Varner asked Dale DeVon if Mishawaka offers Residential tax abatements, he said
no. Valerie Schey wanted to make sure the property was not in the Triangle, It's not.
Dr. Ferlic mentioned that they need to look at what is considered a distressed area on a
case by case basis. Need to have a discussion on TIF and distressed area boundaries.
Dr. Varner mentioned that he would give away tax abatements all day long as an
incentive for people to build and pay taxes on. The bill was passed as favorable.
The meeting was adjourned by Chairperson Gavin Ferlic.
Respectively submitted,
