Home Browse Search

Waggoner's Dairy Farm, Inc. Phase II Annexation Area 6 Indiana. Off -site street improvements have yet to be determined until the full traffic modeling analysis completed by MACOG has been studied. Drainage Plan - Drainage facilities will be constructed by the developer. Drainage plans are typically completed by the developer, submitted with subdivision plats, and reviewed and approved by the St. Joseph County Surveyor, the Board of Public Works of the City of South Bend, and the St. Joseph County Engineer, as appropriate. Drainage plans for this Annexation must meet the requirements of the appropriate jurisdiction(s). Other Infrastructure Improvements - The roadway network, drainage systems, power, communications, natural gas, and other infrastructure systems need to be developed. The City's contribution to that effort, if any, has not been negotiated with the developer as of the submittal of this fiscal plan to the Board of Public Works and the Board of Public Safety. The South Bend Redevelopment Commission and the City of South Bend policy on matters such as this, has historically been to sequester taxes generated within the development area through a tax increment financing district. It will be the developer's responsibility to provide all public works improvements above and beyond that which can be financed through the development agreement with the City. General Budget Analysis 2002 Budget Report for the Department: Expenditures: $7,427,294 State Revenue: $5,341,296 Balance (a): $2,086,165 Miles of Roadway in City (b): @482 Cost per Mile: @$4,328 ((a) divided by (b)) New Mileage within Area: @.82 miles (4,660 feet) Total estimated Maintenance costlyear: @$3,549 ($4,328 *.82) When fully developed, this annexation area is not expected to require major capital outlays for public works vehicles or equipment. Cost of road maintenance (such as pavement repair and/or replacement) will not be fully required during the early years of development, in anticipation that major repairs will not be needed. B. Police Department The noted area would be expected to be added to the already existing BEAT 22. It is located in an area of the City that is expected to continue to grow, both in commercial development as well as residential. Police patrols, traffic enforcement, and emergency responses will be part of the services the City will offer to this area. Most certainly we can expect the calls for service by the Police Department to rise in conjunction with the growth in this annexed area.
