<br />53500 OLIVE ROAD, IN THE CITY OF SOUTH BEND, INDIANA.

<br />BILL NO. 47 -93 A BILL AMENDING THE ZONING ORDINANCE FOR PROPERTY LOCATED AT 135
<br />EAST IRELAND ROAD, IN THE CITY OF SOUTH BEND, INDIANA.
<br />This being the time heretofore set for public hearing on the above bill, proponents
<br />and opponents were given an opportunity to be heard. Council Member Slavinskas
<br />reported that the Zoning and Vacation Committee had met on this bill and sends it to
<br />the Council with no recommendation. John Byorni, Area Plan, gave the Commission
<br />Report which was favorable. He indicated the Staff recommendation was unfavorable
<br />due to the egress on Norman St., which is residential. Pat Brown, Sitescapes,
<br />representing the developers of the property, made the presentation. He indicated
<br />they proposed to build an 18 by 67 foot building to fit onto this property. He
<br />indicated Area Plan had removed the driveway on to Norman St., and he asked the
<br />Council to allow this egress, since Public Works felt there should be a drive onto
<br />Norman. He indicated they had met with the neighbors and they approved of the plan.
<br />Joe Wilk, 139 Norman, indicated they get quite a few cars going down this dead -end
<br />road, and a drive on to Norman would improve the traffic problem on Ireland. He
<br />indicated he felt there should be screening around the drive and restaurant. Joe
<br />Wilk, Sr., 139 E. Norman, indicated he was in favor of the zoning, however, the
<br />traffic problem would be greater than they have at the present time. Della Curtis,
<br />149 E. Ireland, indicated she had a problem exiting from her drive on to Ireland.
<br />Emogene Woodcox, 127 Norman, indicated the car wash on Michigan has generated a lot
<br />of traffic. After a lengthy discussion on possible problems that could be created by
<br />having another egress on Norman, Council Member Luecke made a motion to recommend
<br />this to the Council unfavorable, seconded by Council Member Slavinskas. The motion
<br />failed on a roll call vote of 4 ayes and 4 nays (Council Members Washington,
<br />Puzzello, Coleman and Duda.) Council Member Duda made a motion to continue public
<br />hearing until August 23, seconded by Council Member Washington. The motion carried.
