Twyckenham Drive, City of South Bend - APC# 2810 -16. Dear Council Members: I hereby Certify that the above referenced ordinance of Cantinas Properties LLC was legally advertised on April 6, 2017 and that the Area Plan Commission at its public hearing on April 18, 2017 took the following action: Upon a motion by Oliver Davis, being seconded by John DeLee and unanimously carried, a proposed ordinance of Cantinas Properties LLC to zone from SF1 Single Family & Two Family District to MF1 Urban Corridor Multifamily District, property located at 1248 and 1258 N. Twyckenham Drive, City of South Bend, is sent to the Common Council with a FAVORABLE recommendation, subject to the following written commitments: 1) The southern two units along Twyckenham should be setback a minimum of 20' from the property line; and 2) A cross - access easement be provided at the east end of the project for future access to Lot 36 of Wooded Estates Subdivision; and 3) No dwelling unit shall be located on the south or east side of the Community Drive for the real estates parcels. Rezoning the property to MFI Urban Corridor Multifamily District to allow for the development of single family townhomes will provide a buffer and transition from the university related uses to the north and the single family homes to the south. The strong urban design principles of the Northeast Neighborhood Zoning Overlay ensure the development is appropriately integrated into the overall character of the neighborhood. The deliberations of the Area Plan Commission and points considered in arriving at the above decision are shown in the minutes of the public hearing, and will be forwarded to you at a later date to be made a part of this report.
