P C-1) • Community & Economic Development , 1200 County -City Building, 227 West Jefferson, South Bend, Indiana 46601 -1830 Phone 574/235 -9371 Fax 574/235 -9021 To: Redevelopment Commission From: David Relos, Economic Development Planner Subject: Resolution No. 3016 Accepting transfer of Hansel Center from South Bend Heritage. Date: April 24, 2012 On November 22, 2011, the Commission and South Bend Heritage, Inc. (SBHF) entered in to a Memorandum of Understanding (MOU), for the substantial renovation of the Hansel Center, located at 1045 W. Washington St. The MOU calls for the transfer from SBHF to the Commission of the Hansel Center, at such time as the use of WWCDA funds are needed to carry forward renovations. This past Tuesday, April 3rd, the Board of Public Works awarded the Hansel Center project contract to Gibson Lewis, and we are now at the point in the renovation process where transfer of the property will soon be needed. Upon approval of this resolution, a quit claim deed will be prepared so formal transfer from SBHF to the Commission can occur. Once the Commission's responsibilities under the MOU are completed, staff will present another resolution to transfer the property back to SBHF, so their final responsibilities may be met. Staff requests approval of Resolution No. 3016, to allow the acceptance of this property from SBHF, and to fulfill its obligations under the MOU. What We Do Today Makes A Difference!
