Michigan Street, City of <br />South Bend - APC# 2438-07 <br />Dear Council Members: <br />I hereby Certify that the above referenced ordinance of Sobieski Bancorp Inc. was legally advertised on <br />Thursday, June 7, 2007 and that the Area Plan Commission at its public hearing on Tuesday, June 19, 2007 <br />took the following action: <br />Upon a motion by Richard Warner, being seconded by Donna Chamblee and unanimously <br />carried, the proposed ordinance and site development plan of Sobieski Bancorp Inc. to zone <br />from MU Mixed Use District to LB Local Business District, property located at 1201 S. <br />Michigan Street, City of South Bend is sent to the Common Council with a favorable <br />recommendation. The uses found in the LB Local Business District are appropriate along a <br />major traffic corridor, such as South Michigan Street. The reuse of this site is compatible with <br />the surrounding land uses which are a mix of business, commercial and institutional uses. This <br />area was zoned MU Mixed Use District in order to foster a type of development that would be <br />closer to the street. This particular area is a mixture of uses that are located at or near the right- <br />of-way such as Real Services and uses that are set back such as IVY Tech, the juvenile justice <br />center, and automobile oriented business at the corner of Sample Street and South Michigan <br />Street. <br />The deliberations of the Area Plan Commission and points considered in arriving at the above decision are <br />shown in the minutes of the public hearing, and will be forwarded to you at a later date to be made a part of <br />this report. <br />Sincerely, <br />i 7 ~~<~. <br />~//.~I~W.IBNorni <br />Y <br />JWB:sr <br />Attachment <br />CC: Sobieski Bancorp Inc. <br />Thomson Vernick South Bend LLC <br />Kevin Vernick <br />Serving South Bend, Lakeville, New Carlisle, North Liberty, Osceola, Roseland and St. Joseph County, Indiana <br />
