Jackson St. <br />South Bend, IN 46613 <br /> <br />RE: Request for Traffic Control Device – Handicapped Accessible Parking Space Sign <br /> <br />Dear Ms. Brown: <br /> <br /> At its January 12, 2021 meeting, the Board of Public Works denied your request for the <br />installation of a handicapped accessible parking space sign at 1918 S. Jackson St., as it does not <br />meet the requirements. <br /> <br />The Ordinance for handicapped parking space sign is written for 1) a handicapped vehicle <br />associated with a driver who has medical proof of handicap recognized by the Bureau of Motor <br />Vehicles and who resides at a residence where the space is being reserved and 2) that does not <br />have a driveway that offers ease of handicapped access. After review of your application and <br />the area in front of your home, it was determined that there is a garage off the alley with a <br />walkway directly to the rear of the house that will provide better access. Also, parking is allowed <br />on both sides of Jackson St. and access to the front door involves steps. <br /> <br />If you have any further questions regarding this matter, please call this office at (574) 235-9251. <br /> <br /> <br />Sincerely, <br /> <br />/s/ Anne Fuchs <br /> <br />Anne Fuchs, Clerk <br /> <br /> <br /> <br />Enclosures <br /> AF/lh <br />
