Fox to zone from "LB" <br />Local Business District to "CB" Community Business District, property located at 1635 and <br />1643 Prairie Avenue, City of South Bend - APC# 2406-06 <br />Dear Council Members: <br />I hereby Certify that the above referenced ordinance of Richard D. Fox was legally advertised on <br />Thursday, November 16, 2006 and that the Area Plan Commission at its public hearing on <br />Monday, November 27, 2006 took the following action: <br />Upon a motion by John DeLee, being seconded by Phil Sutton and unanimously <br />carried, the proposed ordinance and site development plan of Richard D. Fox to zone <br />from "LB" Local Business District to "CB" Community Business District, property <br />located at 1635 and 1643 Prairie Avenue, City of South Bend is sent to the Common <br />Council with a favorable recommendation. The Rum Village Neighborhood <br />Association supports the rezoning. The rezoning is compatible with the surrounding <br />business and mixed use zones. It allows a vacant building located at the visible <br />intersection of three streets to be redeveloped. The landscape requirements of the <br />Zoning Code will help beautify the paved, unlandscaped site. On August 14, 2006, <br />the Common Council approved a similar rezoning request at the southwest corner of <br />Prairie Avenue and Dorothy Street from LB Local Business District to CB <br />Community Business District to allow a vacant building to be used for an automobile <br />repair business. <br />The deliberations of the Area Plan Commission and points considered in arriving at the above <br />decision are shown in the minutes of the public hearing, and will be forwarded to you at a later <br />date to be made a part of this report. <br />Sincerely, <br />~~ <br />~~ d~'~cGhn W.
