<br />topography, patterns of land use, and population density; (5) that services of a capital improvement
<br />nature will be provided to the annexed area within four (4) years after the effective date of the

<br />boundaries of the City of South Bend regardless of similar topography, patterns of land use, or
<br />population density, and in a manner consistent with federal, state and local laws, procedures, and
<br />planning criteria; and (6) the plan for hiring the employees or other governmental entities whose j obs
