Ivy Tech Real Estate Donation Agreement
Enyart and Sinco properties
SUBJECT:
In 2009 and 2010, the Commission approved certain properties along E. Sample St. to
be added to the acquisition list. These properties were added because Ivy Tech has
experienced record growth, and to this day, remains in need of additional classroom,
office, and parking areas to accommodate its students.
Four properties were acquired: the old Habitat Restore, Discount Rental, Enyart Electric,
and Sinco Pool. To date, both the Habitat Restore and Discount Rental properties have
been transferred to Ivy Tech. Today's Donation Agreement transfers the Enyart and
Sinco properties.
By transferring these last two properties, Ivy Tech agrees to:
• Pay all closing costs
• Use the property for purposes benefitting the public
• Maintain the properties
• Within three years demolish structures on the property and turn them in to
attractive green spaces and I or parking areas
• Conditions subsequent include revesting of the properties or the payment of 150%
of their appraised values when acquired
Staff requests approval of this Real Estate Donation Agreement.

Sample Street Properties
Ivy Tech is grateful to have been able to partner with the South Bend community to acquire several
properties along the Sample Street corridor. The following outlines a time line of what has occurred
with these spaces and what the immediate plans are regarding these properties. An addendum to this
information will include copies of communications, master plan slides, and completed structural
assessments.
Activities to date have included:
2010 South Bend Redevelopment Commission acquired buildings along Sample Street
2010 Ivy Tech State Trustees resolved to accept the properties
2011 Acquired Restore/Habitat building
September 2012 Ivy Tech North Central Master Plan Developed
September 2012 Acquired Discount Rental building
April 2012 Shared Master Plan with City
December 2012 Structural assessment of the Discount Rental building
January 2013 Structural assessment of Sinco building
May 2013 Formal request to City for transfer of Sinco and Enyart buildings by September 15,
2013
January 2014 Meeting with Scott Ford, Chris Fielding, and David Relos
March 2014 Call with David Relos property transfer as follow-up to formal request and
subsequent meetings
March 2014 Additional formal request to City for transfer Sinco and Enyart buildings
December 2014 College request for advice on needed steps to transfer properties. Received email
regarding steps for the college to take regarding immediate use of the properties
to be submitted by December 8, 2014.
In April 2012, Ivy Tech shared the newly conducted master plan for the South Bend Campus with the
City. Fitting within this plan, Ivy Tech plans to demolish the current structures of the Restore/Habitat
and Discount Rental buildings donated by the city. Recent assessments of the functionality of these
buildings as well as their structural assessment, demonstrate that the cost to rehabilitate the buildings
and the limited use of the spaces make net out the decision for tearing down these facilities. The
additional buildings planned to be donated by the City to the College (Sinco and Enyart) will also be
demolished by on the structural engineering assessments funded by the college. These properties will
either become green spaces and parking as interim use as the College move towards achieving its
building master plan for the sites. The action steps are as follows:
Restore/Habitat Building
• Demolition funded
• Anticipate tear down in the next 3 month
• Plan to convert to parking for ITOSS and potential project in review stage
Discount Rental
IVY TECH
COMMUNITY COLLEGE North Central December 5, 2014
• Structural assessment completed determining a cost of rehabilitation of $239K (copy attached)
• Seeking quotes on tea_r down
• Region submitted request for funding to demolish during the current fiscal year
• Plan to convert to attractive green space until Master Plan funding is attained
Enyert Property
• Not yet transferred to the College
• Submitting request for funding to demolish during the current fiscal year
• Plan to convert to attractive green space until Master Plan funding is attained
Sinco Pools Building
• Not yet transferred to the College
• Structural assessment completed (copy attached)
• Will submit a request to demolish the building during the next fiscal year
• Plan to convert to attractive green space until Master Plan funding is attained
These spaces over time will fit within the growth and master plan of the College and need to expand to
meet the programmatic needs of the community. The demolition of these properties will occur within
the next 18 months.
