The following Fiscal Plan, developed through the cooperative
efforts of the City of South Bend's Controller's Office, Department
of Public Works, Police Department, Fire Department, Department of
Neighborhood Code Enforcement, and the Department of Public Parks
represents the City's policy for the annexation of the property
located southeast of the intersection of Ironwood and Inwood Roads
in Penn Township, St. Joseph County (hereinafter, "Annexation
Area ").
This annexation meets the statutory contiguity requirements.
I. LOCATION
The Annexation Area is located on the south side of the City of
South Bend in part of the Northwest Quarter of Section 29, Township
37 North, Range 3 East, Penn Township. The Legal Description for
the Annexation Area, marked as Exhibit 1, is attached hereto and
made a part of this fiscal plan. A map showing the Annexation
Area, marked as Exhibit 2, is attached hereto and made a part
hereof. There are approximately 5.30 acres of land within the
Annexation Area.
II. EXISTING LAND USE
The Annexation Area currently has a single family home located on
it.

The developer of this project proposes to construct a physicians
office and medical facility on the site. The home that currently
exists on the Annexation Area will remain as the caretaker's
residence.
All surface drainage is to be handled in compliance with the City
of South Bend's Subdivision Standards. The developer of the project
is responsible for all infrastructure improvements including any
streets, street lighting, water, sewers and stormwater drainage
facilities needed.
IV. PROVISION OF CITY SERVICES
A. Public Works
No expenditure of funds by the City will be required to provide
capital improvements due to the developer providing streets, street
lighting, sewer facilities, water facilities and stormwater
drainage facilities within the Annexation Area.
Water lines of sufficient size and capacity are available from
both Ironwood and Inwood Roads. Sewer lines are also adjacent to
the Annexation Area. The wastewater treatment and collection
systems can provide service to the proposed area without any
additional expenditures by the City.
The City also can provide solid waste collection services to the
Annexation Area without additional equipment or personnel.
B. Police Protection
The Annexation Area will be added to Beat 15. Police officials do
not anticpate that the addition of the development will increase
signifcantly the call for police services. Routine patrol and law
enforcement can be provided without hiring additional officers or
purchasing additional equipment.
Police patrols, traffic enforcement, and emergency responses will
be a part of the services the City will offer to the Annexation
Area. Police protection will be furnished to the Annexation Area
within one (1) year after the effective date of the annexation.
C. Fire Protection
The Annexation Area is located approximately 2.6 miles from South
Bend Fire Department Station Number 10 at 308 West Ireland Road.
Additional Fire Department units will respond, including engine
Number 8, which is located at 2402 Twykenham, approximately 2.0
miles from the Annexation Area. Response times will be comparable
to other areas of the City.
The Fire Department does not foresee any unusual fire protection
problems related to the proposed development. The Fire
Department's final approval of the project will require examination
and approval of the site plan, including the location of any fire
hydrants. No additional equipment will need to be purchased or
personnel hired to provide fire protection to the Annexation Area.
The long range plan, already in place, provides for a continual
review of the needs for additional personnel and equipment for all
areas of the City. Relocation of Station Number 10 nearer to the
southeast side of South Bend is also being considered.
