Zoning and Annexation Committee March 14, 1994 Page 2 Mary Ellen Hill of Holy Cross Care Services Inc., and Mr. Dean R. Bergeman of Mathews-Purucker-Anella,Inc. to the Committee. It was noted that there would be twelve (12) additional garages added and 79 new nursing home beds. Currently there are 400 residents at St. Paul's. The 10 to 15 year master plan calls for 2 day treatment facilities one for day care and one for adult care. There are currently 94 beds for nursing home care. The plan is to include several new one-story contiguous patio homes with attached garages. It is uncertain if they would be rental or owned by individuals at this point. Mrs.Hill noted that the continuing care retirement facility is the only one of its type in South Bend. The average age is 83 years. All of the roadways would be maintained by St. Paul's, as well as all security being maintained by St. Paul's. y y g y au s. Councilmember Ladewski q uestioned the wildlife environment. was ad vlronment. He wa advised that the plans call for keeping as many trees in the areas. Currently the facility maintains salt licks for the many deer in the area and that the total space would be 65% of land unencumbered. Cleo Mellinger spoke in opposition to the rezoning. She stated that she believes it is an intrusion to the area. Her letter in opposition was noted in the file. Following further discussion Councilmember Zakrzewski made a motion, seconded by Councilmember Slavinskas, to recommend Substitute Bill No. 1-94 favorably to Council. The motion failed inlight of abstentions by Councilmembers Duda and Washington. Councilmember Duda then made a motion, seconded by Councilmember Washington, that Substitute Bill 1-94 be recommended to Council without recommendation. The motion passed. Mr. Byroni noted that the entire City is currently digitized. He showed how the current zoning maps are for the area. It is hoped that a CD Rom for a "Road Capacity only" would be made available to the public. Each parcel now has the zoning and height and area listed, and it is hoped that the sewer and water lines would also be listed on the maps. It is also hoped that the tax key numbers would be provided in the near future. Hopefully that would be completed within the next two (2) months. There being no further business to come before the Committee, the meeting was adjourned at 5:00 p.m. Respectfully submitted, Councilmember Lee Slavinskas, Chairperson Zoning and Annexation Committee Attachments
