REGULAR MEETING APRIL 12, 1999
<br />WHEREAS, the territory proposed to be annexed voluntarily by all (100%) of its owners
<br />consists of approximately 0.37 acres of residential real estate. It is generally located on the south side
<br />of Brick Road, approximately 600 feet, east of Cleveland Road, with approximately 98% of its
<br />aggregate external boundaries coinciding with the boundaries of the City of South Bend. The
<br />development of the territory proposed to be annexed will require a basic level of municipal public
<br />services, including street and road maintenance, and services of a capital improvement nature,
<br />including water and sewer facilities; and
<br />WHEREAS, the Board of Public Works now desires to establish and adopt a fiscal plan and
<br />establish a definite policy showing: (1) the cost estimates of services of a non -capital nature, including
<br />street and road maintenance and other non -capital services normally provided within the corporate
<br />boundaries, and services of a capital improvement nature including water and sewer facilities to be
<br />furnished to the territory to be annexed; (2) the method (s) of financing those services; (3) the plan
<br />for the organization and extension of those services; (4) that services of a non -capital nature will be
<br />provided to the annexed area within one (1) year after the effective date of the annexation, and that
<br />they will be provided in a manner equivalent in standard and scope to similar non -capital services
<br />provided to areas within the corporate boundaries of the City of South Bend, regardless of similar
<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 />annexation within the same manner as those services are provided to areas within the corporation
<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 jobs
<br />will be eliminated by the proposed annexation.
<br />NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED BY THE BOARD OF PUBLIC WORKS OF
<br />THE CITY OF SOUTH BEND, INDIANA, AS FOLLOWS:

<br />density; and to furnish to said territory, services of a capital improvement nature, such as sewer and
<br />water facilities within four (4) years of the effective date of the annexation, in the same manner as
