Danch, F/arner & Associates, Inc. <br />—MIA <br />MICHAEL J. DANCH, L.A. <br />RON HARNER, P.S. <br />Honorable Members of the City of <br />South Bend Common Council <br />4"' Floor County -City Building <br />South Bend, Indiana 46601 <br />RE: Rezoning Petition for 3527 & 3529 Western Avenue, <br />South Bend: <br />Dear Council Members: <br />Land Surveyors . Professional Engineers <br />Landscape Architects . Land Planners <br />April 3, 2013 <br />Our clients are requesting the approval of a Rezoning Petition for the properties located at 3527 <br />and 3529 Western Avenue, South Bend, Indiana. This requested Rezoning would allow for the <br />approval of a Convenience Store with two Gasoline service pumps. The proposed site <br />improvements require rezoning of the property to the LB Local Business District classification <br />and approval of a Special Exception for the Gasoline service pumps. This is the same petition that <br />was previously submitted to the Council for approval last year. Our clients did meet with several <br />members of the LaSalle Park Neighborhood Association in January to discuss the project. As a <br />result of that meeting, our clients did make some improvements that were allowed under the <br />present zoning. Our clients also agreed to work with the neighborhood members to create a set of <br />written commitments that can be enforceable as part of the rezoning process. <br />Our clients believe the improvements proposed for the properties along with a set of <br />enforceable written commitments would be a compatible use in the surrounding mixed use <br />neighborhood along the Western Avenue corridor. <br />If you have any questions concerning this matter, please feel free to give me a call at 234 -4003. <br />Sincerely, <br />Michael J.
