2022 - Oct 18 READI FUNDS TO INCREASE HOUSING IN THE SOUTH BEND – ELKHART REGION

Posted by Liz Folkerts

ELKHART, Ind. (Oct. 18, 2022) – On September 19, the South Bend – Elkhart Regional Development Authority (RDA) approved Regional Economic Acceleration and Development Initiative (READI) grant funding to support 18 quality of place projects....

Culver South Main Housing Project: The Dunes

The Dunes Housing project is a multi-phase housing development that will create 200 units including duplexes, apartments, and single-family homes off South Main Street in Culver. The READI allocation will support Phase I infrastructure development, utility installation, the first 78 apartment units, and community amenities. This project will provide a substantial influx of new housing units to the community to retain and attract talent.

Total Project Investment: $9.8 million
RDA Allocation: $1.3 million
“The Town of Culver is excited to partner with CMD (Construction Management & Design) on this project,” said Ginny Monroe, Culver Town Manager. “This project will meet a critical need in our community for more diverse housing types that will serve our current workforce and attract talent to our community and the region. Most importantly, bringing a housing development of this size to Culver will enable us to grow our year-round resident population, a primary goal of our Comprehensive Plan and Stellar Communities Strategic Investment Plan.”

Overview
The purpose of this project is to increase growth and economic opportunity by offering housing stock in a community challenged by low inventory, high demand, high property values, and a large workforce coming into Culver with nowhere to live. Housing types will include multi-family, bungalows, duplexes, and patio flats. This project will increase Culver's population, increase assessed value, and attract and retain employable talent in the region. READI funds will be used for sewer and water and infrastructure. Public matching funds will be provided by the Culver Redevelopment Commission. Private matching funds will be provided by the developer, Culver Equities LLC.

By March 31, 2023, we will have established a TIF area where the housing development will be built and the developer should have completed a final site plan. Zoning/permitting will also be substantially completed by March 2023. We plan to start construction in late spring or early summer 2023 with utilities and infrastructure going in first (READI-funded), a clubhouse with amenities, and the first set of a total of 78 units of housing. The developer plans to complete construction of all of this phase's units by the end of 2025. A second phase will bring the total of housing units to 200.

2023 - AUg - NOTICE OF HEARING ON PROPOSED READI GRANT AGREEMENT WITH THE NORTHERN INDIANA REGIONAL DEVELOPMENT AUTHORITY

2023 - Sept. 7 The Little Town on Lake Maxinkuckee's Big Growth Housing Project

October 18, 2023 - Culver Redevelopment Commission & The Dunes

The October 16th meeting of the Culver Redevelopment Commission had a pretty full house and the majority of the meeting was taken up with a Public Meeting (not Public Hearing) on The Dunes



There were questions about environmental concerns, but these seemed to center on the effect on Lake Maxinkuckee. It was stated by Karen Shuman, who is on the Lake Maxinkuckee Environmental Council (LMEC), that LMEC had determined that the property is not within the Lake Maxinkuckee Watershed. Kevin Berger is not sure that’s 100% correct, but it is at least mostly correct. Lake Maxinkuckee’s watershed is not large, but since the lake is mostly sustained by springs, the quality and quantity of ground water is important. That said, besides the lake, there are other environmental concerns, one the bigger ones being the surface runoff flow to the wetlands at the north side of the property and the town well fields just north of the property. Protection of those are critical.

There were comments about screening it so it’s not seen and changing the entrance to face S.R. 17 in lieu of South Main Street as previous mentioned:

There are people suggesting that The Dunes not have a street connection to the Town and only connect to S.R. 17 to the west. Aside from the bad planning involved with this idea, it is probably a logistical moot point.
1) S.R. 17 is a limited access highway and INDOT is rather jealous with their driveway permits

2) Cabinetworks owns the parcel to the west between The Dunes and S.R. 17 and are unlikely to want to bisect it with a road

The Dunes project layout

Synopsis from Culver Citizen dated Nov. 3

Town council heard public input of a robust houseing project during council meeting last week

This is not just an affordable housing project though it's a workforce housing.

During application process was referred to as the "South Main Street Housing Project/

Was named "The Dunes" after the READI Grant was applied for.

Project involves multiple pracesl starting South of Davis Street and the length of Wade McGee's arches from south of the Water Plant to land surronding the Garden Court Apratments.

Culver Town Council members discussed the town’s READI grant project which was recently awarded $1.3 million to address a housing need in the town, with a $1.3 million match from the Culver Redevelopment Commission.

Culver Town Manager Ginny Bess Munroe previously stated the funds will be used to support utility and infrastructure costs for a housing development that will be constructed on the south end of town.

The Dunes will include multi-family housing types, town homes, retiree flats, and single-family homes.

The project will be brought to reality by developer Culver Equities, LLC, Alan Collins and Chris Collins of Construction Management & Design, in partnership with property owner Wade McGee.

READI funds will help fund the first phase of the project which will include building out the infrastructure, utilities, a Clubhouse and amenities for the development, and the first set of multi-family units that will include approximately 78 apartment units.

The developer, Culver Equities LLC, will also soon request to rezone particular parcels from R-2 and A-1 to a Planned Unit Development (PUD). They will need to submit a finalized site plan for review before the rezoning process.

The project is in the infancy stages of a long process and no permits have been issued.

A public input session for this project was discussed, but a schedule has yet to be developed.

2023 - Oct 23 - Bond ordinance to be set at December meeting for Culver residential project The Dunes

WROI News by Staff report The Culver Town Council received an update on a residential project called 'The Dunes'. Culver Town Manager Kevin Danti updated council members. The project totals 301 units in the residential development. 152 multifamily units that include 36 one-bed, one-bath apartments, 72 two-bed, two-bath apartments, 24 two-bed two-bath patio flats with a one-car garage, and 20 senior style units. Among those are 12 one-bed, one-bath and eight are two-bed two-bath. Current estimated rents range from $850 to $1100 a month. This project also includes 121 free-standing homes that range from two-bed, two-baths with two-car garages to three-bed 2.5-baths with two-car garages. Some of the homes will have basements and 28 duplex units will have full basements. Culver received a $1.3 million READI grant which will provide the sewer and water infrastructure for this residential project. The Culver Redevelopment Commission agreed to provide the $1.3 million match using TIF funds. Danti explained some of the infrastructure for the project. Streets, curbs, and sidewalks will be provided in phases using two series of bonds. The first phase will be completed with a bond and the READI grant funding for residential phases and 2. The second bond is conditional depending on the completion of phases 1 and 2 and the market demand for additional homes. When asked about the amount of the bonds, citizens were told they were still being determined. The amounts will be included in the Economic Development agreement currently being drafted. The bond ordinance is expected to be presented at the December 12 meeting of the Culver Town Council and the Culver Economic Development Commission will consider a resolution approving the finance documents at their December 18 meeting at the Culver Library. That meeting begins at 5 p.m. 2023 - Nov. 2 - Culver Council appmves resolution for Economic Development Target Area
BY ANITA GOODAN CORRESPONDENT

The Culver Town Council members reviewed a resolution last Tuesday night that was recommended for council approval by the Culver Economic Development Commission that would designate an Economic Development Target Area for The Dunes projeèt.

That resolution was unanimously approved by the council.

The council also approved the second reading of an ordinance that would designate an Economic Development Target Area on South Main Street for the proposed Dunes project. The second reading was unanimously approved and the third reading will be considered during the council's next meeting Tuesday, Nov. 14.

Town Attorney Jim Clevenger previously stated in a public meeting that the intent is to add that property as a TIE District. Since there is an economic development aspect in the project, the town would need to designate this area as an economic development target area. It is undesirable for normal development, but good for normal development for housing.

This is part of the bonding process as part of the project.

There about 27 acres involved.

In a previous meeting, Burke Richeson, legal counsel for development group Culver Equities LLC, stated that there will be
• 121 of the free standing condominiums,
• 108 apartment units,
• 28 duplex units, and
• 20 senior units.
There will be a total of 301 units that will be constructed in four phases which could take four to five years to develop. Other amenities are planned as well including outdoor sport courts.

Members of the public have expressed concerns over the size of the project and potential traffic issues. A traffic study will be conducted by the Michiana Council of Governments in the next few weeks. Culver Town Manager Kevin Danti said there are some moving parts within this project and more information can be found on the Town of Culver website at www. townofculver. org.

2024 - June 24 - Culver Town COuncil Updated on the Dunes Project
Anita Goodan - KVB news director

Culver Town Manager Kevin Danti gave the Culver Town Council an update on The Dunes project when they met Thursday, May 23.

Danti said the Culver Plan Commission met Tuesday, May 21 where they were going to discuss an application or a major subdivision presented for The Dunes along with the engineering plans, but the topic was tabled

The matter will be revisited June 18 as they continue to took into the storm water engineering against the worse case scenario when it comes to the 100-year flood.

Danti said they are being thorough as there are wetands in the proposed area. There is an existing northern foodplain there. A high water. relief has been installed, but the rate of infiltration of the detention area is being researched. Testing suggests that it is four inches per hour which is plenty to relieve the detention area, but there is concern about the rapid succession of the 100-year rates and there is no visible outlet.

Scott Siple from Midwestern Engineering wants be sure that it is sound engineering and that the plans can speak for themselves.

More updates will be given when the Plan commission meets June 18.

The current plan calls for 132 apartments, 48 homes, 28 duplex units, and 20 senior living apartments with the possibility of an additional 73 homes.

According to documents on the project, The Dunes will run along the west side of South Main Street beginning at Davis Street and running south past Wabash Street to the line of evergreens adjacent to the cemetery.

2024-June 28 - Culver Town Council Acts on Next Steps for The Dunes Project
Anita Goodan

Officials from the Town of Culver have been working on the proposed Dunes subdivision project for the past several years and the Culver Town Council took additional action to move the project forward during their regular meeting Wednesday, June 26.

The current plan calls for 132 apartments, 48 homes, 28 duplex units, and 20 senior living apartments with the possibility of an additional 73 homes.

According to documents on the project, The Dunes will run along the west side of South Main Street beginning at Davis Street and running south past Wabash Street to the line of evergreens adjacent to the cemetery. The project will wrap around the Culver Garden Court center on the west side of South Main Street at Tampa Street.

The town previously approved a bond ordinance toward the project by a majority vote. Culver received $1.3 million in READI grant dollars to assist with the cost of infrastructure for the project with matching TIF funds approved by the Culver Redevelopment Commission.

Research into questions from town officials and members of the public have resulted in studies from engineering firms into water and wastewater capacity for such an addition, as well as the impact of traffic.

Many members of the public attended Wednesday night’s meeting to continue to voice concerns of access to State Road 17 from the proposed development, utility capacities, traffic, safety, density, affordability, and the size the project.

Others who supported the project noted the increase of economic benefits to the downtown and other merchants, growth of the community, more students attending the Culver Community School Corporation, and more opportunities for workforce housing.

After 90 minutes of taking public comment and questions posed by the public and answers provided by the developer’s attorney Burke Richeson, there were two votes before the council Wednesday night. Councilwoman Ginny Munroe made a motion to approve the dedication of the rights-of-way and easements for The Dunes project, with the motion seconded by Councilwoman Sally Ricciardi. Councilman Bill Githens stated that the was not in support of the vote and would like to see the project downsized to its original scope of about half of the current project. Councilwoman Ginny Munroe stated that housing has been an issue for some time and the council members identified that into the comprehensive plan about 10 years ago and it remains a top priority. She also noted the amount of work done by financial institutions, engineering firms, town employees, and Plan Commission members when it comes to this project. Councilman Dana Neer agreed with Githens and Ricciardi agreed with Munroe. When it came to a vote, Munroe, Ricciardi and Council President Bill Cleavenger voted in support of the vote while Neer and Githens opposed the vote.

The second action item was to approve the site plan for the development. Ricciardi made the motion for approval and Munroe seconded the motion. The vote was 3-2 with the same council member vote.

With that, Town Manager Kevin Danti stated that he will continue to take public concerns into consideration as the project continues to develop and any questions can be directed to the Culver Town Hall. All of the documents involving the project can be found on the town’s website
