South Bend I Redevelopment Commission <br />Resdiedulej Regular Meeting - April 13, 1989 <br />6. NEW EWINESS (Cont.) <br />b. C6ntinued... <br />regardless of what Mr. Works said. What <br />y 're taking is might, because they got <br />better education, make more money, is <br />going to be superceded by the people who <br />iE from the lowest income. We're not in <br />a different country. So, we're seeing <br />that every day on television. If you <br />v to on one person, one vote, we should <br />win. Simple as that.

Why take that money and try <br />to build homes here when you could <br />re habilitate those homes over there. <br />y talk about law income, medium <br />mme. And another thing, they <br />jected, under their schedule, that <br />th Bend in 1992 will be only 96,000 <br />ple. If they are going to go down <br />n 110,000 down to 96,000, some people <br />it need any homes then. As I have <br />3 before, why tear down business to <br />Ld homes when you got all the vacant <br />I. You wouldn't do it anywhere <br />B. If you had enough space in your <br />t yard, you wouldn't tear down your <br />5Lge to put another garage ten feet <br />r. Thank you. <br />Hockman: I feel that I really need SUE HOC[Z,N <br />say something. I came to the west <br />le four years ago and I came because I <br />.t I had no other place to go.
