SOUTH BEND HERITAGE <br />FOUNDATION <br />HO3 LINCOLNWAY WEST SOUTH BEND, IN 46616 <br />PHONE (574)289-1066 Fa,x (574)289-4550 <br />July 16, 2002 <br />Dear Members of the Common Council: <br />South Bend Heritage Foundation (SBHF) has been successfully <br />developing the West Washington Neighborhood along the 1300 and 1400 <br />blocks of W. Washington into a neighborhood of single family, owner <br />occupied affordable homes. Now SBHF wishes to expand this <br />development to include land it owns and future land that it will acquire on <br />the 1300 Block of Liston Street. <br />On this short street there are several substantial houses with committed <br />owner occupants. SBHF will incorporate in its plan the existing houses <br />and develop the vacant land. In order to replat the land to promote a <br />suitable site plan, the alleys described in this application needs to be <br />vacated. <br />In addition, the alley breaks up a short street. By vacating the two alleys <br />described in the petition, the foot and vehicular traffic will be channeled <br />appropriately on the end streets - N. Walnut and N. Studebaker. This <br />plan promotes an aesthetically pleasing neighborhood community as well <br />as a safer and quieter place for the residents and their children. <br />We look forward to your favorable recommendation to vacate this alley. <br />Sincerely, <br />~i~ <br />Dea Andrews <br />Assistant Secretary and Assistant to the Executive Director <br />South Bend Heritage Foundation <br />803 Lincoln Way West <br />South Bend, IN 46616 <br />(574) 289-1066 <br />N re ghbor orks° <br />CHARTERED MEMBER <br />~~ <br />Find ira C1~r~:'~ ~f~ic~ <br />~1~3. ~ ~ 2001 <br />r <br />LCr^^.
