1316 COUNTY -CITY BUILDING 227 W. JEFFERSON BOULEVARD SOUTH BEND. INDIANA 46601-1830 CITY OF SOUTH BEND PETE BUTTIGIEG, MAYOR BOARD OF PUBLIC WORKS March 14, 2017 Francis Linarello 327 W Marion St. South Bend, IN 46601 PHONE 574/235-9251 FAX 574/235-9171 RE: Alley Vacation — First North/South Alley East of Portage Avenue from Navarre Street to Marion Street (Preliminary Review) Dear Mr. Linarello: The Board of Public Works, at its March 14, 2017, meeting, reviewed comments by the Engineering Division, Area Plan Commission, Community Investment, Fire Department, Police Department, and the Solid Waste Division. The following comments and recommendations were submitted: Community Investment and the Engineering Department state the vacation would violate I.C. 36-7-3-13, making access to the lands of the aggrieved person by means of public way difficult or inconvenient. They noted a garage at 334 Navarre St. would become land -locked and at 330 Navarre St. would be compromised (Welsheimer's Funeral Home). The Fire Dept. gives an unfavorable recommendation due to excess distance from hydrants Therefore, the Board of Public Works submitted an unfavorable recommendation for the vacation of this alley and recommended the petitioner submit a request with an access agreement entered into by the three parties. Please contact Donna Hanson at (574) 235-9254 prior to picking up your radius man. You will need a radius map showing properties within 150' of the proposed vacation for your petition to the Common Council. Once you pick up the radius map, proceed to the City Clerk's office for your alley vacation packet. Sincerely, 0)q Linda M.
