Alibaba Annexation Area 5 SECTION III. MUNICIPAL SERVICES A. Public Works Sewer - No sewer lines abut the property. The nearest sewer available is on Ironwood Drive, approximately 500 feet to the southwest. A sewer extension and connection would be done at the petitioner's expense. The petitioner may continue to rely temporarily on the property's septic system. Upon failure of the septic system after the effective date of annexation, the petitioner will be responsible for connection to the City's main line provided that the main line has been extended reasonably proximate to the petitioner's property line. If this has not occurred at the time of septic failure, the petitioner may continue to use a septic system at its sole expense. Water - The South Bead Water Works currently has a 12" water main on the south side of State Road 23 and a 6" water main on the west side of Terrace Lane. The main on Terrace Lane is a dead-end main that terminates at Dunn Road. A 1" service line tapped off the Terrace main has a listed address of 17917 East State Road 23. The nearest flow test data is at Maple Lane and Roosevelt Street, about 650 feet from the Annexation Area. A flow test on October 28, 2010, indicated a static pressure of 49 psi, residual pressure of 42 psi, and a flow rate of 948 gallons per minute. There is sufficient capacity for the Annexation Area. Extensions of, or taps into sanitary sewer and water lines shall be governed by I.C. 36-9-22- 2, I.C. 8-1.5-3 and 4, and the rules and regulations of the South Bend Water Works and Sewer Utility. Street Lighting - No additional street lighting will be necessary. The existing street lighting system adequately covers this area. Waivers of Annexation - A waiver of right to remonstrate against annexation is in effect for this area.

No capital expenditure will be needed to extend sweeping and snow removal service to the area. Gas tax reimbursements to the Motor Vehicle Highway Fund pay for operation of the service. 2011 Actual Budget Report for the Department: Expenditures: $9,402,157 Miles of Roadway in City: @499.3 Cost per Mile: @$18,830 New Mileage within Area: @0.04 miles (220 feet) Estimated Maintenance cost for Annexation Area per year: @$753
