One or perhaps several of the eleven proposed routes may adversely im- <br />pact your home and/or property. <br />The Historic Preservation Commission of South Bend and St. Joseph County (HPC) is <br />also reviewing the proposed routes and their impact upon the historic structures and landscapes <br />in the southern half of the county. Your property is listed in the Indiana Historic Sites & Struc- <br />tures Inventory of St. Joseph County as <<Contributing, Significant, or Outstanding.» It is thus <br />a part of the county's rich agricultural, commercial, and architectural heritage and is of interest <br />to the Historic Preservation Commission. <br />If you have any concerns or thoughts about the proposed routes and their impact upon <br />your property, please send a short written or typed response to the Historic Preservation Com- <br />mission. Also, we are interested in adding architectural and historical information on properties <br />and structures that may be affected by the US 31 improvements to our report and to our archives. <br />We would be most grateful if anything of note could be included with the response to this letter. <br />-� Best, `--- <br />t Julie L.
