<br />Staff Report <br />APC # 2371-06 <br />Owner: City of South Bend <br />Location: At a vacant, triangular shaped parcel bounded on the east by Meade Street, on the <br />north by Lawton Street and the southwest side by Washington Street; seven <br />vacant lots lying north and adjacent to Lawton Street from Meade Street West <br />160 feet to the first north south alley west of Meade Street; eight vacant lot from <br />Kenwood Avenue north to Bertrand Street being 160 feet in width, east and west, <br />from Meade Street west to the first north/south alley west of Meade Street. <br />Jurisdiction: City of South Bend <br />Requested Action: <br />The. petitioner is requesting a zone change from "SF2" Single & Two Family and "GB" General <br />Business to "LI" Light Industrial to allow the expansion of the Bosch Corporation parking lot. <br />Land Uses and Zoning: <br />On site: On site is an existing building, existing parking lot, and vacant undeveloped land <br />zoned "LI" Light Industrial, "GB" General Business, and "SF2" Single Family <br />Residential. <br />North: To the north is Bendix park zoned "SF2" Single Family Residential. <br />East: To the east are single family houses zoned "SF2" Single Family, a vacant parcel <br />of land zoned "LI" Light Industrial, and a warehouse zoned "LI" Light Industrial. <br />South: To the south is the Amtrak Station zoned "LI" Light Industrial. <br />West: To the west is the Bosch Corporation buildings zoned "LI" Light Industrial. <br />District uses and development standards: <br />The "LI" Light Industrial District is established to provide for development of office/warehouse, <br />warehouse/distribution, wholesale, assembly and manufacturing or processing facilities which are <br />clean, quiet, free of hazardous or objectionable elements such as noise, odor, dust, smoke, or <br />~~ -- ~ ~ ~- glare. Permitted uses in this district tend to generate heavy traffic, require extensive community <br />facilities, and may require limited amounts of outdoor storage. The LI District is also intended to <br />function as a transitional district between the more intense general industrial districts and other <br />less intense districts. <br />Site plan description: <br />The site plan shows 648 parking spaces. Access is from Bertrand Street at the northeast corner of <br />the site, from Meade Street on the eastern side of the site, and from Washington Street. <br />Walkways and landscape screening are shown. <br />Zoning and land use history & trends: <br />Prior to 1997 the petition area was a mix of commercial and industrial zoning. In 1997, the area <br />to be rezoned and areas adjacent to the east were rezoned from "B" Residential, "C" Commercial, <br />"D"Light Industrial, and "E" Heavy Industrial to "A" Residential for the purpose of bringing the <br />existing houses into zoning conformance and to allow for the construction of single-family <br />houses. It was rezoned to residential with the hope that it would spur the construction of new <br />single family homes within this area which transitioned between commerciaU industrial and <br />residential land uses. The residential infill never occurred. <br />Traffic and transportation considerations: <br />Bendix Drive is a four lane street at this location. According to the MACOG traffic counting <br />program, 6,336 cars per days traveled on Bendix Drive south of Bertrand Street in 2004. <br />City of South Bend <br />#2371-06 <br />Page 1 of 3 <br />
