A RESOLUTION OF THE COMMON COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF SOUTH BEND,
INDIANA, ADOPTING A WRITTEN FISCAL PLAN AND ESTABLISHING A
POLICY FOR THE PROVISION OF SERVICES TO AN ANNEXATION AREA
IN GERMAN TOWNSHIP
(WAGGONER'S DAIRY FARM, INC., PHASE II ANNEXATION AREA)
WHEREAS, there has been submitted to the Common Council of the City of South Bend,
Indiana, an Ordinance and a petition by the sole (100 %) property owner which proposes the
annexation of real estate located in German Township, St. Joseph County, Indiana, which is
described more particularly in Section I of this Resolution, and;
WHEREAS, the territory proposed to be annexed encompasses approximately 235.45
acres of land containing one single family residence and a number of service buildings, which
property is at least 12.5% contiguous to the current City limits, i.e., approximately 16%
contiguous, generally located at the northwest and northeast intersection of Adams Road and the
St. Joseph Valley Parkway and the northwest and northeast corners of Orange Road and Adams
Road. It is anticipated that the annexation area will be developed eventually as a Planned Unit
Development District, and it is proposed for rezoning within the City as Planned Unit
Development District ( "PUD ") upon incorporation into the City limits and Common Council
approval. This use will require a basic level of municipal public services of a non - capital
improvement nature, including police and fire protection, street and road maintenance, street
sweeping, flushing, snow removal, and sewage collection, as well as services of a capital
improvement nature, including street and road construction, street lighting, a sanitary sewer
system, a water distribution system, a storm water system and drainage plan; and
WHEREAS, the Common Council of the City of South Bend, Indiana, now desires to
establish and adopt a fiscal plan and establish a definite policy showing: (1) the cost estimates of
services of a non - capital nature, including street and road maintenance, sewage collection, street
sweeping, flushing, and snow removal, police and fire protection, and other non - capital services
normally provided within the corporate boundaries, and services of a capital improvement
nature, including street and road construction, street lighting, a sanitary sewer extension, a water
distribution system, and a storm water system to be fart fished to the territory to be annexed; (2)
the method(s) of financing those services; (3) the plan for the organization and extension of those
services; (4) that services of a non - capital nature will be provided to the annexed area within one
(1) year after the effective date of the annexation, and that they will be provided in a manner in
standard and scope to similar non - capital services provided to areas within the corporate
boundaries of the City of South Bend, regardless of similar topography, patterns of land use, or
population density; (5) that the services of a capital improvement nature will be provided to the
annexed area within three (3) years after the effective date of the annexation in the same manner
as the services are provided to areas within the corporate boundaries of the City of South Bend,
regardless of similar topography, patterns of land use, or population density, and in a manner
consistent with federal, state and local laws; and (6) the plan for hiring the employees of other
governmental entities whose jobs will be eliminated by the proposed annexation; and
WHEREAS, the Board of Public Works of the City of South Bend, and the Board of
Public Safety of the City of South Bend, have each approved the written fiscal plan as amended
and established a policy for the provision of services to the territory proposed to be annexed,
which plan and policy the Common Council finds to be appropriate and in the best interest of the
City, and, which it desires to adopt.
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED BY THE COMMON COUNCIL OF THE
CITY OF SOUTH BEND, INDIANA, AS FOLLOWS:
Section I. It is in the best interest of the City of South Bend and the area proposed to be
annexed that the following described real property located in German Township, St. Joseph
County, Indiana, be annexed to the City of South Bend:

K Hiring Plan
It is anticipated that this annexation will not result in the elimination of jobs for employees of any
other governmental entities. The German Township Trustee has been notified of this Annexation
SECTION III. MUNICIPAL SERVICES
A. Public Works
Sewer - Sanitary sewer service is available at the U.S. 31 Industrial Park on the east side of the
Parkway and at Westwood Knolls subdivision on the west side of the Parkway, in connection with
sewers that would be developed in Phase I. Both connection points depend upon the U.S. 31
Industrial Park lift station. That station was designed to be expanded for the full build -out of its
potential service area. The sewage treatment plant has the capacity to accommodate additional
growth in the Annexation Area. On site infrastructure improvements have yet to be determined.
Water - A 16" water main is located on the south side of Adams Road. This water main is looped
along Mayflower and Orange Roads. There is also a 1.5 million gallon elevated storage tank in this
zone.
A flow test on Adams Road near the St. Joseph Valley Parkway was taken on August 5, 2005. It
indicated a static pressure of 66 p.s.i, a residual pressure of 56 p.s.i, and a flow rate of 1,060 g.p.m.
There should be adequate capacity for the annexed area.
Extensions of, or taps into sanitary sewer and water lines shall be governed by I.C. 36- 9 -22 -2,
I.C. 8 -1.5 -3 and 4, and the rules and regulations of the South Bend Water Works and Sewer Utility.
Street Lighting - Additional revenue to the General Fund from this annexation area will be sufficient
to pay for street light operations on the new roads to be developed.
Waivers of Annexation - No waivers of annexation are in effect for the Annexation Area.
Streets - The developer will be required to construct new public streets to access the lots proposed
for development. Portions of Adams Road, Mayflower Road, The St. Joseph Valley Parkway and
Orange Road are included in the Annexation Area as required by State law. The new and existing
streets will add mileage to the roadway inventory. The new mileage will add to the state's
payments to the Motor Vehicle Highway Fund and Local Road and Street Fund sufficient for street
maintenance, sweeping, and snow removal. Street maintenance, sweeping, and snow removal
responsibility of those portions of Adams, Mayflower and Orange Roads will be taken over by the
Bureau of Streets. The St. Joseph Valley Parkway will remain the responsibility of the State of
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.
Waggoner's Dairy Farm, Inc. Phase I7Annexation Area y
Noting that the City will continue to annex and grow in areas to the south and north, the Police
Department has been studying beat restructure to insure that comparable response times and
services will be insured to those areas as to other areas of the City.
Beat 22 has become one of the largest geographical beats, and it is felt that when this proposed area
begins to advance, this beat will have to be part of the restructuring. It is proposed that as part of
the overall beat restructuring, an additional beat would be added to cover the growth that has
occurred over the past several years as well as future growth. The overall cost of an additional beat,
which includes adding manpower and equipment, is approximately $475,000 in 2005, and could be
expected to rise each year in accordance to pay increases and other incidental cost increases.
It should be noted it will not be necessary to add a beat immediately. Beat restructure and other
measures would enable the Department to handle this proposed annexation until the area is more
fully developed. The source of funds to cover the cost of adding a beat would be expected to be
covered by increasing the Police Department's budget out of the General Fund.
Primary police response will be taken over by the South Bend Police Department. Police coverage
to this area will begin immediately upon annexation and coordination of the conversion of the 911
emergency phone system for that area. Conversion of the 911 emergency phone system may take
up to one month from the effective date of the Annexation.
It is anticipated that the services of this Department will be minimally required to service the
Annexation Area in the first five years of the annexation. Therefore, the service cost of the
Department has been reduced by one -third to reflect a more realistic actual cost to service the
Annexation Area in the first five years.
Note: The cost ofservice for this Annexation Area is based on the number ofparcels. Household
information is provided for comparative purposes.

The Annexation Area will be serviced primarily by Station #11, located at 3505 N. Bendix Drive
approximately 3.8 (3.8) miles away. Additional Fire Department units would respond from Fire
Station #7 located at 1616 Portage Avenue which is approximately six (6) miles away.
Waggoner's Dairy Farm, Inc. Phase 11 Annexation Area 8
Distance from fire stations and response times will greatly improve when a new Fire Station #12 is
constructed in the future.
Primary fire response will be taken over by the South Bend Fire Department. Fire coverage to this
area will begin immediately upon annexation and coordination of the conversion of the 911
emergency phone system for that area. Conversion of the 911 emergency phone system may take
up to one month from the effective date of the Annexation.
The South Bend Fire Department does not foresee any unusual fire protection problems related to
this annexation. Response times will be comparable to other areas of the City. No additional
equipment will need to be purchased or personnel hired to service the Annexation Area. Adequate
water supply will be necessary as development takes place.
It is anticipated that the services of this Department will be minimally required to service the
Annexation Area in the first five years. Therefore, the service cost of the Department has been
reduced by one -third to reflect a more realistic actual cost to service the Annexation Area in the
first five years.
Note: The cost of service for this Annexation Area is based on the number of parcels. Household
information is provided for comparative purposes.

The Annexation Area will be added to Area 8.
Code enforcement, a service not currently available in the Annexation Area, will be made available
upon annexation. Code enforcement services with comparable response times can be provided to
the area with no additional increase in manpower or equipment under the initial development.
However, with time, if the development falls into disrepair or properties are not maintained, it may
be necessary to add additional staff.
Animal Control will be affected immediately upon development. Their response times may be
longer due to the location of the shelter in comparison to the location of the development.

The City of South Bend provides a wide range of services other than those noted above,
Mayor's office, the Legal Department, and the Department of Parks & Recreation.

Bend Building Department are some of the county-wide agencies and their services that
continue to provide the same type and level of services to the Annexation Area.

SECTION IV. FISCAL IMPACT
1) Essential city services can be made available to the current and future property owners of the
Annexation Area in a timely and comparable fashion, per the requirements of State law and this
fiscal plan.
2) The City is financially willing and able to support city services to the territory sought to be
annexed.
3) Required improvements made by the petitioner and/or owner of the parcels must be made in
accordance with the standards of the City of South Bend.
4) Required improvements and services made and offered by the City of South Bend will be
completed and provided within the time frames required by State law and stated in this fiscal plan.
5) All figures are estimates. Final cost of capital expenditures, if any, will not be determined until
bids are publicly solicited, contracts are awarded and projects are closed out.
6) Property tax revenue and land assessment estimates are based on a combination of-
- 2004 payable 2005 tax rates
- taxes paid in previous years by a comparable development
- estimates of units built
- estimates of unit values and land assessments.
Tax rates are subject to change every year.
7) Department expenditures and revenues are derived from the City of South Bend Budget.
8) The estimated costs to provide services, noted in Section III, Municipal Services, is a City-wide
average based on a particular budget year. In the case of the proposed development in the
Annexation Area, some of these services will not be required or possibly requested for many years.
Hence, the cost of providing services over the first five years is adjusted, and the costs reflected in
this fiscal plan should be evaluated with this in mind.
9) A development agreement with the City of South Bend has not been entered into. Exhibit `B ".
Portage Prairie Planned Unit Development dated February 9 2005 as submitted by the developer
as a part of his Petition, will provide a context for detailed discussions between the developer and
the City of South Bend. Additional requirements may be added. 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.
The Annexation Area is adjacent to the Airport Economic Development 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.

10) In general, Tax Incremental Finance Districts (TIFs) provides for the temporary allocation to
redevelopment districts of increased proceeds (known as "increment ") in an allocation area
generated by increases in assessed value. TIF permits cities to use increased tax revenues
stimulated by redevelopment to pay for the capital improvements needed to induce the
redevelopment.

Phase II ANNEXATION
Dear Ms. Pfiefer:
I am attaching for filling, the above - referenced resolution, which is a companion to Bill No. 43 -05. This
Bill proposes to voluntarily annex contiguous territory in German Township to the City of South Bend. The
resolution indicates the approval and adoption by the Common Council of the written plan and policy attached
thereto concerning the provision of services, both capital and non - capital in nature, to the territory to be annexed.
This Annexation is a 198 acre parcel on the north side of Adams Road, on either side of the St. Joseph
Valley Parkway. All public improvements, if any, will be required to be done at the expense of the developer.
Possible expansion of the TIF area may also assist in the development of certain public improvements.
I am requesting that the attached resolution be placed on the October 24, 2005 agenda of the Common
Council meeting at which the companion Bill is given Second Reading. I will be attending the meeting as the
presenter.
Your favorable consideration is requested.

Phase II ANNEXATION
Dear Ms. Pfiefer:
On October 24, 2005, the Common Council tabled Bill Number 43 -05, an Ordinance to annex contiguous
property in German Township. Bill Number 05 -123, a companion Bill adopting a written fiscal plan, by resolution,
was also tabled. The resolution indicates the approval and adoption by the Common Council of the written plan and
policy attached thereto concerning the provision of services, both capital and non - capital in nature, to the territory to
be annexed.
This Annexation is a 235.45 acre parcel (on previous correspondence, the acreage was inaccurately stated
as being 198 acres) on the north side of Adams Road, on either side of the St. Joseph Valley Parkway. All public
improvements, if any, will be required to be done at the expense of the developer. Possible expansion of the TIF
area may also assist in the development of certain public improvements.
I am requesting that Bill Number 05 -123 be placed on the November 14, 2005 agenda of the Common
Council meeting at which Bill Number 43 -50 is given Second Reading. I will be attending the meeting as the
presenter for Bill Number 05 -123.
