JOHN W. BYORNI <br />EXECUTIVE DIRECTOR <br />LARRY MAGLIOZZI <br />DEPUTY DIRECTOR <br />4N COMMISSION OF ST. JOSEPH COUNTY, IN <br />227 W. JEFFERSON BLVD. ROOM 1 140 <br />COUNTY -CITY BLDG. <br />SOUTH BEND, INDIANA 46601 (574) 235 - 9571 <br />Wednesday, March 19, 2014 <br />C S \ _ <br />_1 M <br />2,_' <br />The Honorable Council of the City of South Bend <br />4th Floor, County-City Building <br />South Bend, IN 46601 <br />RE: A combined public hearing on a proposed ordinance of Cosimo Bumbaca to zone from S172 Single Family & <br />Two Family District to MFI Urban Corridor Multifamily District, seeking a Special Exception Use for a group <br />residence for up to 5 unrelated persons; and seeking the following three variances: 1) from the required Type A <br />perimeter landscaping to a wood fence as shown on the site plan; 2) from the required foundation landscaping <br />to none; and 3) from the required paved parking surface to gravel, property located at 1012 Talbot Street, City <br />of South Bend - APC# 2697 -14. <br />Dear Council Members: <br />I hereby Certify that the above referenced ordinance of Cosimo Bumbaca was legally advertised on Thursday, <br />March 06, 2014 and that the Area Plan Commission at its public hearing on Tuesday, March 18, 2014 took the <br />following action: <br />Upon a motion by John McNamara, being seconded by Phil Sutton and unanimously carried, a proposed <br />ordinance of Cosimo Bumbaca to zone from SF2 Single Family & Two Family District to MFI Urban <br />Corridor Multifamily District, property located at 1012 Talbot Street, City of South Bend, is sent to the <br />Common Council with an unfavorable recommendation. The proximity of this area to the campus of the <br />University of Notre Dame prompted the conversion of many of the homes to rental properties. Since the <br />original plan for this neighborhood in 1998, one of the overall goals is to reduce the number of rentals and <br />support the return to single - family home ownership. Since this property was not able to provide proof of <br />legal non - conforming status, it should transition back to a single - family house. <br />Upon a motion by John McNamara, being seconded by Phil Sutton and unanimously carved, the Special <br />Exception Use for a group residence for up to 5 unrelated persons is sent to the Common Council with an <br />unfavorable recommendation. <br />The deliberations of the Area Plan Commission and points considered in arriving at the above decision are shown in <br />the minutes of the public hearing, and will be forwarded to you at a later date to be made a part of this report. <br />Sincerely, <br />q„ GU 1 LVt <br />\�hn W.
