South Bend Redevelopment Commission <br /> Regular Meeting—September 13, 2012 <br /> those from Southmore housing, do not want <br /> to have to go all the way to Michigan St.just <br /> to go to the grocery store or to Target, Kohls, <br /> etc. This doesn't even make sense!! Plus <br /> those complaining that there will be extra <br /> traffic if Plan A(the original plan) is <br /> implemented, will get the extra traffic, <br /> anyway, due to all those residents from the <br /> north having to go down Chippewa to get to <br /> the grocery store!! <br /> Secondly, I think we are all losing sight of <br /> why the bridge over the bypass is being built. <br /> Its original intention was to make a quicker <br /> path for emergency vehicles to go from <br /> Gilmer Park, down Fellows/Chippewa to <br /> Michigan to get to the hospital. If the <br /> emergency vehicles have to stop at a dead <br /> end coming off the bridge at Ireland Rd., turn <br /> left, maneuver through numerous traffic <br /> lights just to get to the same place (Chippewa <br /> and Michigan) imagine the precious time <br /> lost. <br /> Lastly, it is my understanding that <br /> approximately the same amount of money <br /> would be spent for both projects (because the <br /> fixing of drainage on Fellows, Barbie, <br /> Walter, Chippewa etc. still would need to be <br /> done regardless of which plan is chosen and <br /> that cost has not be figured into Project C <br /> yet). So basically the same amount of money <br /> spent, traffic flow not fixed, and you would <br /> be taking 3 businesses in Project C whose tax <br /> dollars for outway the tax dollars brought in <br /> by the 30 houses in Project A, it doesn't <br /> make sense to me or to many others whose <br /> property is affected by this. <br /> Please reconsider Project C and go with the <br /> original plan (Project A). It is also my <br /> understanding that B and D had to be ruled <br /> 31 <br />
