PRESENTATIONS
Goshen Pond Dredging Presentation ERRA
Bill Reith provided the Commission with handouts and introduced Dave Troup, President of ERRA, who introduced Milt
Thomas, Bill Reith and Gordon Lord, several ERRA Board Members who were also in attendance. Mr. Troup gave a history
of the project and explained the handouts. The estimated budget is just over $2,000,000, of which they are seeking
participation from Redevelopment in the amount of $450,000, which can be a lump sum amount or spread out over a period of
years.
Commissioner Weddell inquired whether the project is worthy of 35% funding from the City of Goshen. Mr. Reith explained
the Millrace could be a compromised asset if this one time dredging project does not move forward. They have commitments
for state monies and private monies, however, the County and the Community Foundation are awaiting to hear what the
Redevelopment Commission will do before they commit funding.
Commissioner Coyne inquired about the current canal issues. Becky Hershberger, Brownfields Coordinator, stated the City
has recently been made aware of a breach, for which there will be associated cost in the near future.
Commissioner Stutsman informed the group that he would prefer to discuss the funding request with Mark Brinson and Larry
Barkes since the redevelopment funds are tight based on the projects currently in progress.
Commission President Stump indicated that since the last time the ERRA presented the project to the Commission, there
have been some setbacks with the Redevelopment budgets and cash flow is now an issue. He also inquired if any property
owners had voiced opposition due to harming the wetlands and wildlife, to which the group responded just one resident had
issues.
1
Goshen Historical Society Powerhouse Exhibit John Hertzler, Historical Society

John Hertzler informed the Commission Goshen Historical Society wishes to put a permanent display in the Powerhouse
along the wall. They are requesting a green light to develop a display with the Commissions permission. No one on the
Commission objected.
UNFINISHED BUSINESS
a. Resolution 103-2014 Approve Funding Commitment for the 9th Street Trail from College Avenue to Purl Street
Mary Cripe, City Civil Engineer, explained this is on the Agenda to make sure the Commission is fully aware that the Civil
City has no funding available for this project. She explained the federal funding process of local funding providing 100%
up front, then receiving 80% reimbursement for design engineering, right of way and construction inspection, but only
providing 20% funding of construction. Reimbursement of the 80% may take up to 6 months.
Larry Barkes, City Attorney, informed the Commission the concern is cash flow and funding 100% of the costs up front
may be an issue. At the time Engineering applied for the federal funds, the Commission had only committed to fund the
20% design engineering, not the entire project.
Mary Cripe told the Commission there may be other project opportunities for federal funds, like when State Road 4
becomes a City Street, which will be discussed later in the meeting. Commissioner Stutsman asked Mary if she was
saying it may be smart to pull the plug on this project and focus on another project, to which she replied the decision on
the 9th Street Trail project can be delayed. Commission President Stump indicated if the Commission needs to delay or
eliminate anything, this would be the project he would eliminate.
Larry Barkes informed the Commission that staff had been considering a work session or special meeting to address the
three items at the end of the agenda and to address the funding issues to assist in deciding what to do with all of these
matters.
A motion was made by Commissioner Stutsman and seconded by Commissioner Weddell to table Resolution 103-2014
until the November meeting. The motion passed unanimously.
b. Resolution 104-2014 Authorize Issuance of RFP for 324 S. Fifth Street, 211 E. Madison Street and 323 S. Sixth
Street
Larry Barkes informed the Commission the RFP has been designed so that proposals could be submitted for one, two or
all three properties. Proposals are due by December 9th, 2014. If no qualifying proposals are received, an additional 30
days will be allotted for the receipt of additional proposals.
A motion was made by Commissioner Stutsman and seconded by Commissioner Weddell to approve Resolution 1042014. The motion passed unanimously.
c. Discussion Railroad Crossing Safety Improvements Funding
Mary Cripe informed the Commission there was a memo in the packet and offered to answer any questions. She said
basically she just wanted to make the Commission aware there is potential for the project to run higher than previously
expected, however she does not feel it will go any higher than the $35,448.48 estimated.
Commission President Stump expressed his objection to this kind of idea if the commitment to spend money is going
to be made, he wants to know the amount of that commitment. The remaining Commission members did not have any
objections. A Resolution will be brought before the commission for approval at the November meeting.
2
d. Discussion Northwest Bike Trail Route Options

Mary Cripe read her memo to the Commission and explained that, at this point in time and with the funding amounts
involved, it makes sense for the trail route to go along the old CR 17.
Commission President Stump indicated his objection to this route because the soil conditions are bad for any sort of trail
there. Mary Cripe agreed and indicated that a boardwalk may need to built to accommodate the bike trail. Commissioner
Weddell asked if the cost could then exceed the amount DLZ quoted, to which Mary responded yes. He indicated he
would be leery to make a commitment to move the trail to old CR 17 since there isnt a true cost estimate and because of
issues with the County and asked what about the County funding this portion of the bike trail?
Mary Cripe indicated she needs direction what the route is going to be so she can move forward with the next steps.
e. Discussion 405 S. Third Street Status
Becky Hershberger informed the Commission the insurance investigation has been completed. Salem Insurance has
offered $80,736.99 with no commitment to restore, demolish, etc. If the Commission decides to restore the property,
Salem would offer at additional $16,848.88 to the $80,736.99, for a total settlement of $97,585.87.
There were no objections to accepting the $80,736.99 and demolishing the house.
f.
Discussion Electrical Service Extension at 315 W. Washington Street

Becky Hershberger reminded the Commission that, as part of the Lease Agreement with Goshen Brewing Company, the
Commission agreed to fund up to $20,000.00 to extend electrical service to the NIPSCO Building. Goshen Brewing
Company has expended just over $18,000.00 for which a claim will be submitted for approval at the next meeting.
NEW BUSINESS
a. Resolution 105-2014 Authorize Negotiation and Execution of a Contract for Asbestos Assessment with TecServ
Environmental, Inc. for 301, 303, 305 & 307 S. Third Street
Becky Hershberger informed the Commission three quotes were requested and TecServ Environmental submitted the
lowest quote.
A motion was made by Commissioner Turner and seconded by Commissioner Weddell to approve Resolution 105-2014.
The motion passed unanimously.
b. Resolution 106-2014 Approve and Authorize Execution of a Bridge and MSE Wall Location Memo of
Understanding (MOU) between INDOT, Norfolk Southern Railways and the City of Goshen for the Marion Branch
Curve Realignment Project
Larry Barkes explained the MOU is a conceptual outline of a future agreement, however, he is requesting they amend the
Resolution to add provided Exhibit A is referenced in the body of the Understanding in a manner that limits the Citys
commitment to the acquisition of 117 S. 9th Street and 119 S. 9th Street and the demolition of three (3) houses.
A motion was made by Commissioner Stutsman and seconded by Commissioner Weddell to amend the Resolution with
the language as provided by Mr. Barkes. The motion passed unanimously.
A motion was made by Commission Turner and seconded by Commissioner Stutsman to approve Resolution 106-2014,
as amended. The motion passed unanimously.
c. Resolution 107-2014 Authorize Negotiation and Execution of an Agreement with Aquatic Weed Control for
Millrace Canal Vegetation Maintenance
Becky Hershberger explained the weeds in the canal are worse this year because the canal has not been drained and
they are slowing down the flow of the canal. She explained the handout of a contract for services from Aquatic Weed
control for treating the shoreline plants this fall in the amount of $1,500.00. There will be another treatment in the spring
for submerged weeds. The spring treatment would cause the flow to be stopped for 30 days, then released.
Commissioner Stutsman stated he had received several calls from concerned neighbors along the canal who requested
input before the treatment takes place due to concerns regarding the chemicals. Becky Hershberger stated that the City
fully intends to have public meetings prior to the spring treatment to address any concerns. He objected to moving
forward with the Fall 2014 treatment.
A motion was made by Commissioner Turner and seconded by Commissioner Coyne to table Resolution 107-2014
indefinitely. The motion passed unanimously.
d. Resolution 108-2014 Consent to Assignment of Agreement for the Lease and Development of Real Estate at 315
W. Washington Street by Goshen Brewing Company to 1st Source Bank
Larry Barkes explained the Assignment to the Commission.
A motion was made by Commissioner Stutsman and seconded by Commissioner Coyne to approve Resolution 108-2014.
The motion passed unanimously.
e. Discussion Updated Consolidated River Race / US 33 TIF 5 Year Plan
Larry Barkes stated these next three discussion items are the ones referenced earlier in the meeting for which a work
session or special meeting may be appropriate. The Commission agreed.
f.
Discussion Updated Consolidated Southeast TIF 5 Year Plan

See above.
g. Discussion Federal Funding Opportunities

Mary Cripe briefly explained the potential for federal funding for a project on Lincoln Avenue in the River Race / US 33 TIF
and on Kercher Road in the Southeast TIF.
REPORTS
a. Monthly Redevelopment Staff Report
Commissioner Weddell inquired whether the townhome and co-housing developments had gone before the Planning
Commission yet. Becky Hershberger replied they had not due to construction delays. He also inquired about the status
of the downtown vaults project. Dustin Sailor replied there are still a couple vaults to be addressed yet. He also inquired
about the status of the Powerhouse Lease, to which Becky Hershberger replied they are paying rent monthly and Larry
Barkes indicated there are no contractual obligations on their part for some time yet.

UNFINISHED BUSINESS
a. Discussion Updated Consolidated River Race / US 33 TIF 5 Year Plan
Mark Brinson, Community Development Director, explained the Estimated Annual Cash Balance / Deficit spreadsheet for
this TIF area. This spreadsheet included Umbaughs projected TIF increment revenues, administrative expenses, bond
and loan obligations and the projects listed on the 5 year project funding plan spreadsheet through 2019. Mark also
explained the list of potential projects not included in the 5 year project funding plan, which list was not in any ranking
order. Becky Hershberger, Brownfields Coordinator, explained the projects and estimated costs listed on the 5 year
project funding plan spreadsheet.
The Commission considered removing the 9th Street Pedestrian Trail from the 5 year project funding plan, however, after
further discussion, the project remained on the plan since the local funding amounts were minimal. However, the
Commission did agree to delay a portion of the right of way acquisition funding from 2015 until 2016 for the Steury
Avenue/Lincoln Avenue Drainage Improvements project and delay the construction funding from 2015 until 2016 for the
9th Street Stormwater Improvements project.
The Commission also agreed to move up the construction funding from 2016 to 2015 for the Millrace Canal Levee
Repairs and added additional funding for construction in 2019 for this project.
Due to funding constraints, the Commission agreed to remove the Lincoln Avenue Reconstruction from the Railroad to
29th Street project from the 5 year project funding plan and include it in the list of projects not included in the plan. The
Commission also agreed to remove the Goshen Pond Dredging project from the list of projects not included in the plan.
The Commission also agreed to remove the Addressing Water Pressure and Water Quality in East Goshen from the list of
project not included in the plan since it will may be addressed in the Lincoln Avenue Reconstruction project.
b. Discussion Updated Southeast TIF 5 Year Plan
Mark Brinson explained the corrected Estimated Annual Cash Balance / Deficit spreadsheet for the Southeast TIF area
which was distributed to the Commission at the meeting. This spreadsheet included Umbaughs projected TIF increment
revenues, administrative expenses, bond and loan obligations and the projects listed on the 5 year project funding plan
spreadsheet through 2019.
Mary Cripe, City Civil Engineer, informed the Commission that once the property acquisition phase is complete the for the
Intersection Improvements at Kercher Road and State Road 15, that project will be shelved since there is no funding for
1
the construction phase of the project. Mary also informed the Commission that other funding sources have been secured
for the completion of the Kercher Road Reconstruction from the Railroad to Dierdorff project.
The Commission agreed funding is constricted in the Southeast TIF area and there is no funding available for any further
projects outside the 5 year project funding plan at this time.
c. Discussion Future Federal Funding Opportunities
The Commission agreed to delay the submission of the grant application for Federal funding for the Lincoln Avenue
Reconstruction from the Railroad to 29th Street Project at least one year and agreed to revisit the request at that time.
The Commission agreed to delay the submission of the grant application for Federal funding for the Kercher Road from
Dierdorff Road to Firethorn Drive Project at least one year and agreed to revisit the request at that time.

RE:
NINTH STREET TRAIL FROM COLLEGE AVENUE TO PURL STREET

PROJECT NO. 2011-0052
DATE:
October 1, 2014
The City received grant funding for the design, right-of-way, construction and construction
inspection, with 80% Federal funding and 20% local funding. With the grant funding, the
Redevelopment Commission would be required to pay 100% of the design, right-of-way, and
construction inspection to the specific entity (like the design consultant), and then submit an
INDOT-LPA Claim Voucher to INDOT for reimbursement of the 80% Federal funds. We are
invoiced for the 20% of the construction costs, once the project is bid. Please see the table below
with the preliminary estimates for each phase of the Ninth Street Trail project.

At this time, the Redevelopment Commission needs to determine whether or not to commit to
paying for 100% of the local costs associated with this Ninth Street Trail project. The various
Civil City budget lines are tied up with various projects associated with the US 33 North
Connector Route, US 33 from the Elkhart River to Third Street, Kercher Road from the Railroad
to Dierdorff Road and the Wilden Avenue Reconstruction from the Rock Run Creek Bridge to
Sixth Street, and Civil City does not have any additional funds to assist with this project at this
time.
RESOLUTION 103-2014
Commitment to Fund Local Share
Ninth Street Trail from College Avenue to Purl Street

RE:
NORTHWEST BIKE TRAIL

DATE:
October 1,2014
After obtaining the topographic survey for the Northwest Bike Trail along the New CR 17
corridor, we discovered some concerns with regards to the location of the trail in relationship to
the drainage swales along the new CR 17. With the proposed new trail construction to be inside
the new CR 17 right-of-way/fence line, some of the drainage swales would need to be filled in or
additional right-of-way purchased along with the new fence relocated. Please see the attached
summary letter from DLZ.
At this point in time, it would be my recommendation to proceed with the new trail along the
east side of the old CR 17. Before proceeding in that direction, we are interested in hearing the
thoughts and ideas of the members of the Redevelopment Commission.

RE:
NW Bike Trail- Additional Cost associated with New CR 17 Route
Dear Mrs. Cripe

During the preliminary design of the above referenced trail along (new) CR 17, DLZ has determined that there
is insufficient room from the top of the back slope to the Right of Way fence. Hence, two options for the
proposed alignment of the trail exist. Either acquire additional Right of Way behind the County's limited
access Right of Way, or create an embankment for the proposed trail by filling in the west ditch of (new) CR
17.
Both options have advantages and disadvantages. Obtaining additional Right of Way from the adjacent
property owner (Russell Stark) will be very difficult, he has already indicated at the public meeting and via
written comments (see attachment) that he is very much opposed to this trail along the (new) CR 17. In
addition, his farm was bisected by the construction of (new) CR 17 and he has indicated "We've had enough!
This will be the third experience of government taking charge of our land!" I believe if the City was to pursue
this option, they would have to obtain the land via condemnation.
The remaining option of constructing the trail along (new) CR 17 would be to fill in the west ditch. Based on
preliminary discussions with the Elkhart County Highway Department, they indicated they are not particularly
fond ofthis option. However, they would consider it contingent upon a hydraulic study being completed to
demonstrate that the capacity of the ditch is adequate for both facilities (roadway and trail). To minimize the
impacts to the ditch, it would be desirable to construct the trail as close to the existing fence as possible. In
order to do this, the entire length of the fence would need to be removed and reset, and Temporary Right of
Way would need to be acquired from Mr. Stark. Since temporary Right of Way would be all that is needed
from MR. Stark, he may be amenable to the request.
Regardless of which option is pursued along (new) CR 17, there are costs associated to this route that should
also be taken into consideration. The box culvert for the Huber Powel Ditch will need to be extended to allow
the trail to traverse the ditch. Also, west of (Old) CR 17, wetlands exist as indicated from the delineation
report. To traverse this area without taking substantial Right of Way from Mr. Stark and to limit the impact to
the wetlands, a boardwalk will be required.

The costs shown above were not previously identified in the prior route analysis study/report, since the
survey and preliminary design of the trail were not completed at that time. DLZ desires to provide the best
possible information to the City of Goshen so that an informed and responsible decision can be made.
The previous route study indicated that a savings of $143,300 would be obtained from utilizing the (new) CR
17 route. However, this savings is eliminated as result ofthe design constraints due to permitting,
INDOT/FHWA design requirements, and/or constructability of the trail within existing Right of Way.
Therefore, DLZ recommends that the City of Goshen review the route along (old) CR 17 and give further
consideration to this option.
If you have any questions or if you would like to discuss this matter further, please do not hesitate to contact
our office.
Sincerely,
ti.~~

PROJECT:
USEPA ASSESSMENT GRANT & REVOLVING LOAN FUND (RLF) GRANT AWARDS
PROJECT DESCRIPTION
The City has received a community-wide assessment grant ($400,000) and a revolving loan fund (RLF) grant ($1,000,000) to be used
for remediation projects from the USEPA. Both sources of funding will be used for sites throughout Goshen and will allow for
collaboration with local businesses and developers to facilitate redevelopment projects.
PROJECT UPDATE
For the assessment grant, the grant completion date was 7/31/2014. As we still have a large portion of the petroleum funding and
approximately $20,000 in hazardous funds, we requested a 12-month extension and that was granted on 7/11/14. We have had
several request inquiries and are continuing to work on these project. We have two Phase Is underway at this time.
For the RLF grant, we recently loaned $650,000 from the City to the Commission to utilize for the salvage yard property at 828/922 E.
Lincoln Avenue. We still have a portion of funding available for petroleum impacted projects and are continuing to look for options for
that funding. One additional site is being considering as a potential project for the petroleum portion of the funding and more details will
be available within the next several weeks.
PROJECT:
GOSHEN THEATER
PROJECT DESCRIPTION
Goshen Theater, Inc. is acquiring and renovating the Goshen Theatre building to serve as an Arts and Entertainment facility

The Northwest Bike Connector route will connect the northwest Goshen neighborhoods to the US 33 Commercial district, extending
west along Bashor Road from US 33 to CR 17 and then north to the Sams Club parking lot.
PROJECT UPDATE
After obtaining the topographic survey for the Northwest Bike Trail along the New CR 17 corridor, some concerns were
discovered with regards to the location of the trail in relationship to the drainage swales along the new CR 17. With the
proposed new trail construction to be inside the new CR 17 right-of-way/fence line, some of the drainage swales would need
to be filled in or additional right-of-way purchased along with the new fence relocated. For more detail, please see the
information attached to this months packet of information.
PROJECT:
DISPOSITION OF 324 SOUTH 5TH STREET, 211 E. MADISON & 323 S. 6TH STREET
PROJECT DESCRIPTION
In April of 2012, 324 South 5th Street was transferred from the Board of Works to the Redevelopment Commission. The Commission
plans to sell the property through a RFP process. Now that a formal decision has been announced regarding the re-routing of US 33,
we are able to proceed.
Page 3
PROJECT UPDATE
The Commission was provided with a Request for Proposals (RFP) for these properties that are owned by Redevelopment. Proposals
are due December 9, 2014. Copies of the RFPs have been distributed to local developers, investors and other interested parties. One
proposal has been received.
PROJECT:
MILLRACE TOWNHOMES AND FLATS
PROJECT DESCRIPTION
The Redevelopment Commission approved a development agreement with developer David Mathews to construct townhomes along
the millrace. Approximately 25 townhomes and flats will be constructed on the parcel situated north of Purl and south of Madison.
PROJECT UPDATE
The rezoning process of the land was approved at the April Plan Commission meeting, and then approved by the City Council at the
May 6, 2014 meeting.
The primary subdivision and site plan will need to be submitted for Plan Commission review and approval. Ground-breaking for this
project is expected to be in the spring of 2015.
PROJECT:
MILLRACE NEIGHBORHOOD DEVELOPMENT
PROJECT DESCRIPTION
The Redevelopment Commission has selected the Millrace Neighborhood, Inc. as the developer for the parcel along the race located
south of Purl and north of Douglas. This will consist of approximately 12 single family homes, featuring a common area that
encourages interaction between residents.
PROJECT UPDATE
The re-zoning was presented at the Plan Commission and received a favorable recommendation to be passed onto the Goshen City
Council for final approval at the July 15 City Council meeting.
The primary subdivision and site plan will then need to be submitted for Plan Commission review and approval. Ground-breaking for
this project is expected to in the spring of 2015.
PROJECT:
MILLRACE CANAL STABILIZATION
PROJECT DESCRIPTION
The Commission completed the Millrace Canal Study in March of 2007. The study focused on the potential to dredge the canal, allow
for the development of hydroelectric power, and repairs to the canal bank levee(s). The study focused on levee repairs on the west
side of the canal, but referenced at least two locations on the east side of the canal that also had levee conditions. The two locations
on the east side of the canal are: 212 W. Jackson Street and 1245 Wilson Avenue. The levee bank repairs were determined to be a
lower priority than the other Commission projects and improvements to the canal were shelved.
Page 4
PROJECT UPDATE
The City was recently made aware that the levee portion of the canal along the property at 1245 Wilson Avenue was leaking and
pooling water within the yard. On August 1st, Goshen Engineering inspected the leak and identified enough items of concern to
warrant further investigation. Representatives from Lawson Fisher Associates (LFA) inspected the site on August 4th and noted a
deposit of washed sand at the base of the leak and a partially saturated levee bank indicating the migration of water through the soil.
Goshen Engineering requested a proposal from LFA to address the concerning leak. LFA determined geotechnical work would be
required to adequately design a repair and arranged for soil samples to be drilled the week of August 4th. Feeling a sense of urgency,
the Goshen Engineering Department authorized the initiation of the soil sampling to be retroactively approved by a board at a later
date. A design proposal has been received from LFA. Funding sources to complete the design work and the yet unknown
construction cost for the repair is being sought.
The canal bank evaluation has been completed by LFA. A copy of the canal bank evaluation is attached. Goshen Engineering will be
sharing the evaluation with Mr. Hartzler and will be discussion repair alternatives that would be acceptable.
We will be holding a public meeting on Thursday, November 13th, at 7:00 pm to discuss long-term canal maintenance. Aquatic Weed
Control will be attending to provide information on the options available (including pricing). The meeting will be held at Schrock
Pavilion. Mayor Kauffman also intends to propose the formation of an EID in this area to help with the cost of long-term maintenance.
PROJECT:
DOWNTOWN VAULT CLOSURE PROGRAM
PROJECT DESCRIPTION
The Commission approved $60,000 to fund the Downtown Vault Closure Program. The purpose of this program is to provide matching
funds to close vaults located under sidewalks in the central business district.
PROJECT UPDATE
A total of 24 vaults were found to be in need of repair. To date, this program has funded vault closures at the following locations:
209 South Main (John Halls); 106 North Main (RC3 Realty); 227 S Main (Dew Drop Inn); 110 E Lincoln (Mervin Schrock);
101 S. Main (1st Source Bank); 115 South Main (John Davis); 218 N. Main (Cuauhtemoc Perez); 132 S. Main (Shutterhugs);
122 S. Main Street (Gutierrez Mexican Restaurant); 120 S. Main Street (Sorg): 108, 110, 112 & 114 E. Washington Street (Robert Burt
Trust); 111 & 113 Lincoln Avenue (Republican Headquarters).
Ground penetrating radar (GPR) was done on 47 properties where it could not be determined if vaults existed due to no access from
the interior of the building and only one additional vault was located on East Lincoln that needs to be filled.
During the closure of 108 and 110 E. Washington Street, the contractor exposed another vault in the northeast corner of 202 S. Main
Street. This vault was previously unidentified.
The vault closure at 111 and 113 E. Lincoln Avenue has been completed. Kerry Yaw, the contractor, assessed the interior of the vault
ceiling before it was collapsed in and commented that it was in very poor condition. Because this vault had been previously blocked
from the outside wall, the Commission agreed to fund the complete abandonment of the vault. The final cost of this abandonment has
yet to be reviewed.

POWERHOUSE LEASE AGREEMENT
PROJECT DESCRIPTION
The Commission has accepted a proposal from Falling Waters, LLC to lease property adjacent to the millrace powerhouse for the
purpose of generating hydro-electric power.
PROJECT UPDATE
A lease agreement with Falling Waters was approved at the February, 2014 Commission meeting. Lease payments began May 1,
2014. The next target date is January 1, 2016, which is the deadline for Falling Waters to apply for all required permits necessary to
produce hydro-electric power.
PROJECT:
NORFOLK SOUTHERN MARION BRANCH RAILROAD CURVE REALIGNMENT &

US 33 NORTH CONNECTOR ROUTE
PROJECT DESCRIPTION
INDOT plans to relocate US 33 from Monroe Street to Main Street along what is known as the US 33 North Connector Route, which
will include bridges over the Norfolk Southern Railroad Marion Branch, SR 4 and Cottage Avenue. As a part of the past Norfolk
Southern Railroad Marion Branch Relocation Study, one option was to realign the railroad curvature at Ninth Street to allow the trains
to continue through the City at 20mph instead of slowing down to 10mph at the curve.
PROJECT UPDATE
INDOT, Norfolk Southern Railroad and the City have agreed that it would be best to have the railroad realignment complete in 2015,
prior to the US 33 North Connector project which begins in 2016. This would also include the closing of the Ninth Street and
Washington Street Railroad Crossings. The City is currently working with representatives from Norfolk Southern regarding funding,
along with the design and construction process.
Several meetings and conference calls have occurred between INDOT, Norfolk Southern and the City. Currently, INDOT plans to
construct the bridge over the railroad to accommodate the two tracks, and Norfolk Southern is evaluating their plans, as to when they
should relocate the Marion Branch track.
Norfolk Southern will be submitting a letter to the City committing to the construction of the Marion Branch Curve Realignment, and
they would like to be to construction in Spring 2015, as long as the City and INDOT commits to the acquisition and demolition of 113,
117 and 119 South Ninth Street.
INDOT plans to bid the US 33 North Connector project in September 2015 and construction should take approximately two
construction seasons.
PROJECT:
NORFOLK SOUTHERN RAILROAD CROSSING SAFETY IMPROVEMENTS PHASE I
PROJECT DESCRIPTION
Federal Highway Safety Improvement Project (HSIP) funding was granted to the City for the installation of new warning devices at six
at-grade railroad crossing to improve safety and meet minimum Federal Railroad Administration (FRA) standards. The six crossings
include: New York Street, Burdick Street, Jackson Street, Plymouth Avenue, Reynolds Street and Purl Street.
PROJECT UPDATE
INDOT issued the Notice to Proceed to Norfolk Southern for the construction of these safety improvements. Norfolk Southern has not
submitted their construction schedule yet.

PROJECT:
Page 6
NORFOLK SOUTHERN RAILROAD CROSSING SAFETY IMPROVEMENT PHASE II
PROJECT DESCRIPTION
Federal Highway Safety Improvement Project (HSIP) funding was applied for the installation of new warning devices at two at-grade
railroad crossing to improve safety and meet minimum Federal Railroad Administration (FRA) standards. The two crossings include:
Jefferson Street and College Avenue.
PROJECT UPDATE
The INDOT-LPA Agreement was executed by the City of Goshen and then forwarded onto INDOT for approval. Once INDOT
executes the Agreement and issues a Purchase Order, then Norfolk Southern and INDOT will enter into an Agreement for the
Preliminary Engineering portion of this project.
PROJECT:
RAILROAD QUIET ZONE FROM KERCHER ROAD TO LINCOLN AVENUE
PROJECT DESCRIPTION
Establishment of a Quiet Zone along the Norfolk Southern Railroad Marion Branch from potentially CR 40 to Lincoln Avenue.
PROJECT UPDATE
This project was highly desired by the participants in the 9th Street Corridor planning project. American Structurepoint has been
assisting the City with the initial report. Once funding is secured for phase II of the railroad crossing safety improvements, the City
could proceed with submitting an application to the Federal Railroad Administration (FRA) for the consideration of the establishment of
a Quiet Zone.
PROJECT:
NINTH STREET TRAIL FROM COLLEGE AVENUE TO PURL STREET
PROJECT DESCRIPTION
New bicycle and pedestrian trail construction along Ninth Street from College Avenue and Purl Street.
PROJECT UPDATE
The INDOT-LPA Agreement needs to be submitted to the City Council and the Board of Public Works and Safety for approval, and
then submitted to INDOT. CHA was chosen by the proposal review committee for the design engineering of this project, and the
Engineering Department anticipates receiving a draft LPA-Consulting Contract from CHA soon, which will eventually require the
Redevelopment Commissions review and approval. The City will receive Federal funding for this project for the design, right-of-way
acquisition and construction portions of the project. Funding will be 80% Federal Transportation Alternate Project (TAP) funds and
20% local funds.

PROJECT:
Page 7
STEURY AVENUE RECONSTRUCTION AND STORMWATER DETENTION AREA
PROJECT DESCRIPTION
This project has grown out of the recent improvements along the Steury Avenue corridor with the expansion of GDC, Lions
Head, the Goshen Street Department and the Goshen Central Garage. The roadway corridor no longer supports the
additional vehicle loads and has been chip and sealed to extend the service life of the current pavement. The intersection of
Steury Avenue and State Road 4 has small turning radiuses, which causes semi-traffic serving the corridor to make wide
swings onto and off of Steury Avenue and State Road 4. Drainage is effectively non-existent along the roadway corridor and
there are limited opportunities to improve the drainage without looking outside the corridor. In addition to the functionality of
the roadway, the roadways appearance does not reflect the investment the adjoining companies have made on their
properties.
The current plan is to reconstruct Steury Avenue from State Road 4 north 1,450-feet to the first roadway bend to the right.
The new roadway cross section will have a thicker pavement section to support the additional vehicle traffic and curb and
gutter to control stormwater water runoff. A new storm sewer will be constructed that directs stormwater to State Road 4
where several properties will be purchased, on the south side of State Road 4, to allow for the placement of a detention pond.
The new detention pond will have an overflow release to Rock Run Creek.
COMPLETED TASKS
Lawson Fisher Associates completed their preliminary evaluation of the Steury Avenue stormwater requirement, and
determined the volume and area land needed to adequately detain the collected stormwater.
The project was awarded to Abonmarche Consulting.
A project kickoff meeting took place with Abonmarche Consulting.
Brads-Ko Engineering and Surveying, completed the additional survey work requested.
Four residential properties south of State Road 4 and just west of the salvage yard have now been purchased and three of
them are vacant and the last one will be soon.
Abonmarche is working on the 60% design drawings.
A property owner stakeholders meeting occurred on June 2, 2014. Meeting attendance was good. Common concerns were
truck movements, drainage and access to businesses.
Appraisals have been completed and an offer has been provided to the property owners.
PROJECT UPDATE
It remains the Citys ultimate goal is to have the first phase of the project, that includes the salvage yard cleanup, ready for bid
after the first of the year to allow for the cleanup project to occur next spring. The current owner is actively seeking alternate
locations.
PROJECT:
SOUTH LINK ROAD CONSTRUCTION
PROJECT DESCRIPTION
South Link Road will be extended from SR 15 east to Regent Street, and will include an overpass over the railroad tracks
along with a traffic signal at the new intersection with SR 15. This is an extension of the existing Waterford Mills Parkway
constructed in 2010 from CR 27 to Regent Street. Construction is anticipated in 2016, which will be funded with 80% Federal
STP funds and 20% local funds.
Page 8
PROJECT UPDATE
At the MACOG Quarterly Tracking meeting with INDOT, it was determined that the South Link Road from SR 15 to Regent Street
project will not be bid in the Federal Fiscal Year (FY) 2015, which ends on June 30, 2015, due to the delay in getting the previously
acquired properties information to INDOT. On Saturday, September 27 2014, all of the information regarding the City owned
properties was submitted to INDOT for review by INDOT and FHWA, and we have absolutely no clue how long it will take for INDOT
to make a determination with regards to the next steps that will need to be taken.
At this point in time, we have tentatively scheduled the letting/bidding date for February 2016, with hopes of an earlier letting date (like
November 2015) can be achieved.
JPR is working hard on acquiring the other parcels that we need, and it seems that portion of the right-of-way acquisition is right on
schedule. We are also coordinating with the various utility companies and the railroad.
PROJECT:
INTERSECTION IMPROVEMENT AT STATE ROAD 15 & KERCHER ROAD
PROJECT DESCRIPTION
A partnership between the Indiana Department of Transportation (INDOT), Elkhart County and the City of Goshen has been
formed to improve the intersection of SR 15 and Kercher Road. Improvements will include a left turn lane, through lane, and a
right turn lane on every approach to the intersection along with a 10-foot sidewalk/trail to provide connectivity to the Winona
Trail along the railroad. The construction along Kercher Road will commence at Islandview Drive and extend to the Winona
Greenway Trail/Railroad.
PROJECT UPDATE
All appraisals are complete. Elkhart County will act as the Citys buying agent for these parcels, and they have already acquired four
of the twelve parcels. County representatives have met with all of the property owners, except for three of them.
An email was submitted to INDOT and Elkhart County putting them on notice that the City will be putting the Intersection Improvement
on hold, due to funding constraints. The City had planned on funding the intersection improvement with TIF funds. However, the
specific TIF District has been taxed with the costs associated with the Intersection Improvement at US 33 and Kercher Road, and all of
the improvements along the SR 15 corridor required for the South Link Road project (because MACOG has a policy that Federally
funded local projects are not to pay for any improvements along a State road) plus the 20% match for the South Link Road.
So, the County and the City will continue to purchase the necessary right-of-way needed to construct the intersection improvement.
Elkhart County will continue to finalize plans and specifications in order to bid the project. Once these tasks are complete, the City will
shelve the project, until we are able to fund the project, unless INDOT is willing to dedicate additional funding to this project.
Construction was anticipated in 2015, but as of now, we are unsure as to when the construction will occur. As a side note,
construction of the Kercher Road Bridge over the Elkhart River is anticipated to start construction in 2016/2017.
PROJECT:
KERCHER ROAD RECONSTRUCTION FROM RAILROAD TO DIERDORFF ROAD
PROJECT DESCRIPTION
Improvements to Kercher Road from the Railroad to Dierdorff Road will include one lane in each direction and a center left
turn lane, curb and gutter along with storm sewer, and a 10-foot sidewalk/bicycle trail along the south side of the roadway.
The intersection at Pine Manor Drive and Industrial Park Drive will be aligned to allow for safe turning movements.

PROJECT UPDATE
The INDOT-LPA Agreement needs to be submitted to the City Council and the Board of Public Works and Safety for approval, and
then submitted to INDOT. American Structurepoint is currently under contract for the design engineering of this project. However,
since Federal funds have been secured for this project, the scope of services with regards to the design engineering has been
modified significantly, and an Agreement Amendment will be presented to the Board of Public Works and Safety for review and
approval of the additional funds needed for the design phase of the project.
The Engineering Department received information from MACOG that once the Transportation Improvement Plan (TIP) has been
approved, the City will receive Federal funding for this project for the right-of-way acquisition and construction portions of the project.
PROJECT:
KERCHER ROAD RETENTION AREA
PROJECT DESCRIPTION
Development of a plan for a stormwater retention area on the north side of Kercher Road, just east of the railroad tracks. This project
will address some of the flooding problems in the Goshen Industrial Park.
PROJECT UPDATE
The City has begun conducting soil borings to determine the height of the water table and the type of soil conditions present in this
area. Once these factors are determined, a design for the retention area will be completed by the Engineering Department. Property
acquisition is now complete.
This project has been put on hold until there are further discussions with Elkhart County about utilizing the soil in the Kercher Road
Bridge Project.
PROJECT:
PLYMOUTH AVENUE FOXBRIAR DRIVE WATER MAIN LOOP
PROJECT DESCRIPTION
The project will loop an existing dead-end water main on Foxbriar Drive into the existing water main on Plymouth Avenue.
The water main loop will improve fire flow and water quality for the residential homes and businesses in the area.
PROJECT UPDATE
The water main extension is designed, but a right-of-way/easement issue was encountered. The design calls for the placement of the
new water main to be beneath the existing pedestrian path, along the south side of Plymouth Avenue. There is insufficient language
to permit the water main to be placed within the existing easement; therefore, a new easement is required. Brads-Ko Engineering and
Surveying has completed the easement description. Goshen Legal Department has completed the agreement and the Goshen
Engineering Department needs to make the easement acquisition offer.
Once the new easement is acquired, an INDOT permit will be sought and the project will go to bid. Anticipated bidding is fall 2014,
assuming the easement can be acquired.

HORN DITCH TWO-STAGE FROM COUNTY ROAD 31 TO COLLEGE AVENUE (C.R. 38)
PROJECT DESCRIPTION
The industrial corridor between Kercher Road and College Avenue has been plagued with flooding from the drainage basin
funneled into the Horn Ditch even before development occurred in the area. In 2005, the City and County developed a plan to
take the existing ditch banks along Horn Ditch between County Road 31 and College Avenue and widen them to allow for the
containment of the 100 year flood. Flood containment eliminates property damages and increasing the value of the industrial
land. At the time, consensus between all the property owners could not be obtained and the project was shelved. Plans
currently being developed by Supreme Corporation to consolidate operations have initiated new discussion and renewed
interest in the two-stage ditch project.
The engineering estimate was $1.3 million with a total project budget of $1.7 million dollar being considered for negotiation
purposes. Public funding of $1 million dollars has been developed with another seven hundred thousand to come from private
business along Horn Ditch. Businesses that participated in the construction project were offered reimbursement through TIF
revenues from new development that occurs in the area.
PROJECT UPDATE
Agreements have been signed by Elkhart County, the City of Goshen and Forest River to complete the project. The last agreement to
be signed is the one with Supreme Corporation. The project was put out for bid on May 23, 2014. Bids were received on June 17,
2014, and the lowest responsive and responsible bidder was Niblock Excavating with a bid of $1,257,710. Construction was slated to
begin at the end of July and the County is still waiting as of August 6th for Niblock Excavating to mobilize. The project has an October
1st winter shutdown date with the balance of the work to be completed by the spring of 2015.

Project completion
Niblock Excavating has made good progress. The 2-stage ditch is complete south of Kercher Road and the contractor
continues work north of Kercher Road. Winter shutdown will take place on October 17, 2014, and will resume in the spring
when conditions permit.
PROJECT:
FORMER WESTERN RUBBER SITE
PROJECT DESCRIPTION
In April 2014, the Redevelopment Commission issued a Request for Proposals to parties interested in redeveloping the former
Western Rubber property. The remediation activities are complete at the site and we have received environmental closure.
PROJECT UPDATE
One proposal was submitted to the Commission in May 2014 from Genesis Products. Their proposal includes a two phase
development, with the initial phase being constructed in 2014 with a total investment of $2,000,000 and the second phase being
completed within 5 years. Their offer is considered a qualified bid as theyre offering full asking price for the land. Genesis presented
their plans to the Commission in June 2014 and a purchase agreement was approved by the Commission. They will be making
application to the Board of Zoning Appeals for zoning variances for their development of the site in July and are actively working on
construction plans at this time.
Retention of stormwater is a site development problem yet to be overcome. Initial estimates provided by JPR to Genesis have the
sites stormwater retention costs at $1 million. Because of 2014 complaints by existing businesses along Tenth Street, a direct release
by Genesis into the storm sewer cannot be promised at this time. The Goshen Stormwater Department has purchased $30,000 of in
pipe monitoring equipment and is waiting on the delivery of the order. The flow monitoring data will permit allow for the determination
of available stormwater capacity. In the interim, alternative stormwater retention/detention options have been evaluated by the
Goshen Engineering Department and theyve compiled a report for Genesis detailing the options available. A meeting will be held with
Genesis within the next few weeks to discuss this issue further.
PROJECT:
HAWKS BUILDING PHASE II - BOUTIQUE HOTEL/ BREWPUB
PROJECT DESCRIPTION
Hawks 1886, LLC has proposed to develop the north end of the Hawks Building into a mixed-use project featuring a boutique hotel
and brewpub.
PROJECT UPDATE
The Redevelopment Commission has approved a development agreement with Hawks 1886, LLC. The developer is
purchasing approximately one-half of the building from LaCasa and has already received approval from the Plan Commission
to modify the existing PUD to allow for a hotel on the site. The hotel market study has now been completed in partnership with
the Elkhart County Convention and Visitors Bureau. The market study has been submitted as part of a loan application to
potential lenders and is under review. If project financing can be secured, construction would likely start in the spring of 2015.
