<br /> EDDY STREET, LOCATED WITHIN THE CITY OF SOUTH BEND, INDIANA
<br /> WHEREAS, in February of 2000, this body enacted Ordinance No. 9989-00, which
<br /> designated a parcel located at 528 South Eddy Street as a historic landmark,due to the presence of
<br /> the three story, brick, neoclassical Jefferson School building, which structure is of historic
<br /> importance to the City and its heritage, and whose architecture, materials, and craftsmanship are
<br /> exemplary in design and execution;
<br /> WHEREAS, the description of the landmark used in Ordinance 9989-00 resulted in the
<br /> entire 19.96 acre parcel located at 528 South Eddy Street, containing School Field, a concession
<br /> stand, a maintenance building, and other appurtenant land, in addition to the Jefferson School
<br /> building, being designated as part of the historic landmark;
<br /> WHEREAS, it is clear from the record that the intent of the landmark designation was to
<br /> protect the Jefferson School building, as this is the only structure and/or historically notable item
<br /> mentioned in the legislative history supporting the landmark designation; and
<br /> WHEREAS, it is desirable to more narrowly tailor the landmark designation to continue
<br /> the preservation of the Jefferson School, while removing restrictions upon the remainder of the
<br /> property so that the South Bend Community School Corporation may maintain, upgrade, and alter
<br /> the remainder of the buildings and property as they deem best to serve the needs of their students
