These entities own several lots to the north and south of <br />the proposed vacation, which will be replated to allow for single - family home constriction. <br />As planned, this project will make ten to fifteen developable lots available to builders and <br />three to four of the new homes to be built will be reserved for low to moderate income <br />households. This vacation will directly enable two additional building sites, increase property <br />tax receipts to the City through housing development, and lessen the burden on the City to <br />maintain a portion of a street that serves no functional purpose. <br />The Board of Public Works reviewed the proposed street vacation, and no <br />unfavorable recommendations were received from City departments. <br />Please let me know if you or Council members have any questions regarding this <br />matter. <br />I L <br />a`. <br />Sincerely, <br />Phil Byrd, Executive Director <br />South Bend Heritage Foundation <br />Northeast Neigh.
