The Fishers City board approved resolution 124025, authorizing a change in how previously discussed bond proceeds would be transferred and directing a $1,980,000 grant transfer from the redevelopment commission to acquire two downtown parcels.
Jennifer presented the amended and restated resolution, saying the board had earlier approved accepting "just shy of 24M dollars from the city." She explained the amendment narrows the transfer: instead of transferring the full approximately $23.06 million, "the redevelopment commission via the grant agreement will be transferring $1,980,000, which will be used to acquire those 2 parcels," Jennifer said. One parcel is identified as the Chicken and Pickle property, which the board will reacquire because, she said, Chicken and Pickle "did not meet their commitments to begin construction." The other parcel is a South Street property whose seller approached the city about selling.
A board member asked for confirmation about the parcels' location and Jennifer confirmed they are located behind the referenced site (the transcript includes a garbled phrase: "right behind first, Internet").
The Chair moved to approve resolution 124025; the motion was seconded and approved by voice vote. The transcript records the Chair declaring the motion passed but does not include a roll‑call vote or individual vote counts.
The action authorizes the body to accept the reduced-transfer grant from the redevelopment commission and acquire the two parcels for future disposition or development as directed in subsequent steps.
