REGULAR MEETING MAY 12, 2008 <br /> <br /> <br /> <br />WHEREAS, the Department of Community and Economic Development has concluded <br />an investigation and prepared a report with information sufficient for the Common <br />Council to determine that the area qualifies as a Residentially Distressed Area under <br />Indiana Code 6-1.1-12.1, et seq., and South Bend Municipal Code Sections 2-76, et seq., <br />and has further prepared maps and plats showing the boundaries and such other <br />information regarding the area in question as required by law; and <br /> <br />WHEREAS, the Community and Economic Development Committee of the Common <br />Council has reviewed said report and recommended to the Common Council that the area <br />qualifies as a Residentially Distressed Area. <br /> <br />NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED by the Common Council of the City of South <br />Bend, Indiana, as follows: <br /> <br />SECTION, I. The Common Council hereby determines and finds that the petition for real <br />property tax abatement and the Statement of Benefits form meet the requirements of <br />Indiana Code 6-1.1-12.1 et seq., for tax abatement. <br /> <br />SECTION II. The Common Council hereby determines and finds that the area meets one <br />of the following conditions as formally established in Ordinance No. 9394-03, which was <br />passed on February 10, 2003: <br /> <br />A. The area is comprised of parcels that are either unimproved or contain only one <br />(1) or two (2) family dwellings designed for up to four (4) families, including accessory <br />buildings for those dwellings; or <br />B. Any dwellings in the area are not permanently occupied and are: <br /> i. the subject of an order issued under IC 36-7-9; or <br /> ii. evidencing significant building deficiencies; or <br /> C. Parcels of property in the area: <br /> i. have been sold and not redeemed under IC 6-1.1-24 and IC 6-1.1- <br />25; or <br /> ii. are owned by a unit of local government; or <br />D. A significant number of dwelling units within the area are not permanently <br />occupied or a significant number of parcels in the area are vacant land; or <br />E. A significant number of dwelling units within the area are: <br /> i. the subject of an order issued under IC 36-7-9; or <br /> ii. evidencing significant building deficiencies; or <br />F. The area has experienced a net loss in the number of dwelling units, as <br />documented by census information, local building and demolition permits, or certificates <br />of occupancy, or the areas are owned by Indiana or the United States; or, <br /> <br />G. The area (plus any areas previously designated under this subsection) will not <br />exceed ten percent (10%) of the total area within the Council’s jurisdiction. <br /> <br />SECTION III. The Common Council also hereby determines and finds the following: <br /> <br />A. That the description of the proposed redevelopment meets the applicable <br />standards for such development. <br />B. That the estimate of the value of the redevelopment is reasonable for projects of <br />this nature; <br />C. That the other benefits about which information was requested are benefits that <br />can be reasonably expected to result from the proposed described redevelopment; and <br />D. That the totality of benefits is sufficient to justify the requested deduction, all of <br />which satisfy the requirements of Indiana Code 6-1.1-12.1-3. <br />E. The deduction will not be allowed unless the dwelling is rehabilitated to meet <br />local code standards for habitability. <br />F. The deduction will not be allowed unless the dwelling rehabilitation is completed <br />within five (5) calendar years commencing from November 12, 2008, or the date of the <br />adoption of this Resolution by the Common Council whichever date is later. <br /> <br /> 13 <br /> <br />
