The Area Plan Commission at its public hearing on July 17, 2001, took the following action: Upon a motion b~ Willie Moran, being seconded by Charlotte Sobel and unanimously carried, the ~roposed~ordmance and s><te development plan of Sean Pierre Trotter to zone from "A-1" Residential, A Height and Area to B Residential, A Height and Area, property located at 1512 Liston Street, City of South Bend is sent to the Common Council with a favorable recommendation, subject to a final site development Plan. This area was rezoned from "D" Light Industrial, "F" height and area to "A" Residential, "A" height and area on July 8, 1991 as part of the West Washington Chapin Revitalization project. At that time, the subject property was a vacant residential structure. In most cases a rezoning to a more intensive use would be discouraged as it is not in keepping with the goals of the downzoning. However, in 1996 the pro erty was rezoned from "A" Residential, "A" height and area to "A-1" Residential, "A" height andparea. It is the Commission's opinion, as it was m 1996 that the rezoning and use would not be out of character for the immediate area. PLEASE NOTE that the Ordinance has been amended by the petitioner and is different than that used for the 's first reading. The amended Ordinance was the Ordinance legally advertised and heard by the Area Plan Commission. The deliberations of the Area Plan Commission and points considered in arriving at the above decision are shown in the minutes of the public hearing, and will be forwarded to you at a later date to be made a part of this report. Attached, for your consideration in the review of this matter, is a copy of the Area Plan Commission's Staff Report. Sincerely, ~, hn W.
