The Proposed Resolution would replace the original 9-year tax <br /> abatement schedule with a more aggressive 6-year tax abatement schedule. <br /> Enclosed for the Council's consideration on October 23,2017,is a substitute version of the Proposed Resolution,along with an <br /> associated Memorandum of Agreement to be executed in the event the Common Council adopts the Proposed Resolution. This <br /> substitute version corrects errors in the property description and the corporate entity name of Great Lakes Capital company <br /> responsible for this project appearing in the originally filed version of the Proposed Resolution. <br /> Again,the Department of Community Investment appreciates the Council's support on this project which will bring a critically <br /> important piece of commercial real estate inventory to the City of South Bend—and subsequently bring a new business entrant and <br /> accompanying jobs,investment and eventual tax revenue. <br /> Both I and Jeff Smoke of Great Lakes Capital will attend the Community Investment Committee and Council meetings on October 23, <br /> 2017 to address any questions. <br /> Thank you, <br /> Sincerely, <br /> Daniel .
