The properties proposed to be added are in the southern central business district area and are generally located within the Coveleski Park area. The properties proposed to be added include the following: - The Manor 118 S William 2 parcels - Fred's Transmission 501 W Western 3 parcels - GMS Realty-Toyota Properties 300 & 400 blk of Western 10 parcels - Schillings Camera Store 325-329 S Lafayette 1 parcel - Nor Systems Inc.

At the present time, the Fred's Transmission and the Nor Systems property (and a service use on the Gates site) are the only active uses on these properties and all of the other properties currently are vacant. A specific overview of each parcel and the proposed redevelopment plan for the property is included in a separate report. Staff requests Commission approval of Declaratory Resolution 2551 to begin the process to amend the South Bend Central Development Area Development Plan and add 17 properties to the acquisition list. If approved by the Redevelopment Commission, a resolution will be put before the Area Plan Commission and then the Common Council for approval before a confirming resolution would be presented to the Commission for final approval. Approval for advertising for the Public Hearing is also requested of the Commission. Advertising would be done after approval from the Common Council is granted.
