Yes. "The study by Zimmerman/Volk Associates, a housing consultingfirm, says the south, <br /> northwest and west sides of South Bend can absorb a total of 180 and 230 new "missing middle"housing <br /> units annually. The city has plenty of space for smaller housing projects in areas where builders haven't <br /> always looked, the study says. The apartments recommended by the study would range in rent prices of <br /> $450 to$900 per month, and condominium purchase prices could land between $70,000 and$165,000. <br /> Volk believes that South Bend's patchwork of vacant lots, many bordered by existing homes, is prime territory <br /> for smaller developers to build on, in addition to renovating vacant or dilapidated homes." <br /> * In the case of a Special Exception Use,the petitioner shall be held to the representations made on the Preliminary <br /> Site Plan included with this petition. <br /> i <br /> 4ILED - <br /> JUL 12 2018 <br /> i <br /> I <br /> SEP 13 2018 <br />
