6. C District under the South Bend ordinance, besides relieving Mr. and Mrs. Buszkiewicz of the restrictions imposed on every other property owner in this district, would establish the right to introduce into the residential neighborhood any of sixty four (64) various activities totally different from Class A Residential character, such as ballrooms, cleaning and dying establishments, public garages, laundries, small machine shops, taverns, used car lots, and tavern parking lots. 7. The commercialization of Mr. and Mrs. Buszkiewicz' lot singly provides no benefit or utilization to any of the other property owners or residents in this district. 8. The commercialization of Lot Two (2) serves no bene- fit to anyone other than the owners, Mr. and Mrs. Buszkiewicz. The claim that creating a commercial lot in this residential dis- trict will relieve traffic and parking problems in our neighbor- hood is false. We have personally observed that parking on the streets in and near Eddie's Restaurant bears no relationship what- ever to whether the existing parking lots are filled or not. People park on these streets even when the lots are nearly empty. 9. While serving the personal and private interests of Mr. and Mrs. Buszkiewicz should be avoided at all costs by this Commission, the undersigned wish to advise the Board that they have personally observed and noted the parking situation at Eddie's Restaurant operation during only 4 _ occasions during the parking lots been filled. -� Lz Immediately adjacent the past year and that on entire year have the existing to this lot on the south are the residences of Mr. and Mrs. Meyer Steinberg and Mr. and Mrs. Joseph Macri. These are ranch -type homes, built at a substantial cost and investment and valued in the neighborhood of twenty thou- sand dollars ($20,000.00). - 2 -
