11 3 <br /> RESOLUTION NO. <br /> Bill No. 13-18 <br /> A RESOLUTION OF THE COMMON COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF SOUTH BEND, INDIANA, <br /> CALLING FOR A TEMPORARY MORATORIUM ON DEMOLITION OF BUILDINGS <br /> WHICH ARE NOT A HEALTH AND PUBLIC SAFETY HAZARD <br /> a Mayor's Task Force on Vacant and Abandoned Homes has been gathering information in <br /> preparation of their upcoming Vacant and Abandoned Report; and <br /> CA60" some of the details in the preliminary draft reveal that the City of South Bend has 1,900 <br /> houses which are vacant and 1,275 which are abandoned; and <br /> 46 while the topics of demolition and rehabilitation are being re-assessed, a temporary <br /> moratorium on demolition of buildings which are not a true health and public safety hazard is an appropriate <br /> route, especially in light of the fact that each home which is slated for demolition is a cost to the taxpayers of <br /> approximately$6,000; and <br /> an open discussion of this topic and a plan of action would provide citizen engagement and <br /> create purposeful enterprise; and <br /> since there has been a significant delay in the public release of the Vacant and Abandoned <br /> Report, a temporary demolition moratorium on non-public safety hazard buildings would provide the <br /> opportunity to review and refine current policies and procedures addressing demolition through collaborative <br /> discussion to ensure standard operating procedures on this topic. <br /> 9�Q MOM k& *4 66fe ammm& awwlyl& &Y je06WA f" 'AANU4 afarmm. <br /> Section I. The South Bend Common Council believes that there would be a benefit through the <br /> Council's Residential Neighborhood Committee on the City's demolition policies and procedures and their <br /> standard operating procedures in this area in collaboration with the Mayor's Task Force on Vacant and <br /> Abandoned Buildings. <br /> Section I1. A temporary moratorium on the demolition of non-public safety hazard buildings for the <br /> next sixty (60) days would provide opportunities for the re-assessment of demolition policies which are in the <br /> best interests of the City of South Bend, Indiana. <br /> Section III. This Resolution shall be in full force and effect from and after its adoption by the Council <br /> and approval by the Mayor. <br /> Council Member Henry Davis, Jr. V'a 2"d District South Bend Common CounJohn Voorde, City Clerk fete Buttigieg, Ma or Y PRESENTED <br /> NOT APF` OV'E �� <br />
