9 AREA PLAN COMMISSION <br />OF ST. JOSEPH COUNTY, IN <br />Room 1140 County -City Building <br />The Honorable Common Council <br />City of South Bend <br />County -City Building <br />South Bend, IN 46601 <br />South Bend, Indiana 46601 <br />RICHARD S. JOHNSON <br />Executive Director <br />(219) 284 -9571 <br />April 18, 1979 <br />In Re: An ordinance initiated by Mary Chris Adams; Councilman, to include <br />the Union Station property in the area of the central business <br />district excluded from certain provisions of the Controlled Use <br />Ordinance, City of South Bend <br />Gentlemen: <br />The attached rezoning petition of Mary Chris Adams was legally advertised <br />April 7, 1979. The Area Plan Commission gave it a public hearing on April 17, <br />1979, at which time the following action was taken: <br />"Upon a motion by Joseph Serge, being seconded by Joseph Simeri, <br />and unanimously carried, the petition of Mary Chris Adams, Councilman, <br />to include the Union Station property in the area of the central <br />business district excluded from certain provisions of the Controlled <br />Use Ordinance, City of South Bend, is returned to the Common Council <br />with a favorable recommendation, by the Area Plan Commission." <br />The Commission is of the opinion that if the petition area is <br />exempted from the Controlled Use Ordinance, renovation of the Union Station <br />into an adaptive reuse would be possible. Without exemption the reuse <br />potentials would be rather limited. <br />The deliberations of the Area Plan Commission and points considered <br />in arriving at the above decision are shown in excerpts of the minutes and <br />will be forwarded to you at a later date to be made a part of this report. <br />Attached for your consideration in the review of this matter is a copy of <br />the Area Plan Commission staff report. <br />Very truly yours, - <br />Richard S. Johnson, <br />Executive Director <br />RSJ /cm <br />Serving: South Bend, Lakeville, New Carlisle, North Liberty, Roseland & St. Joseph, County, IN <br />
