CITY OF SOUTH BEND, INDIANA
FISCAL PLAN FOR THE
ANNEXATION OF THE PROPERTY LOCATED IN GERMAN TOWNSHIP
NORTH OF LINCOLNWAY WEST
INTRODUCTION
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 Works,
represents the City's policy for the annexation of the property
located north of Lincolnway West in German Township, St. Joseph
County (hereinafter, "Annexation Area ").
This annexation meets the statutory contiguity requirements.
I. LOCATION
The Annexation Area is located near the Michiana Regional Airport
in part of Sections 29, 30, 31 and 32, Township 38 North, Range 2
East, German Township, St. Joseph County, Indiana. The Legal
Description for the Annexation Area, marked as Exhibit 1, is
sattached hereto and made a part hereof. A map showing the
Annexation Area, marked as Exhibit 2, is attached hereto and made a
part hereof. There are approximately 489.50 acres of land within
the Annexation Area. The Annexation Area is within the Airport
2010 Project area.
II. EXISTING LAND USE
There are three residential lots which comprise approximately 21.5
acres of the entire Annexation Area. The remaining 468 acres are
vacant land.
III. PROPOSED DEVELOPMENT
The Airport 2010 plan designates this proposed Annexation Area for
an office park and corporate office campus development. The office
park and corporate office campus project will include a golf course
and hotel. The golf course will be privately owned and opened for
public play.
All surface drainage is to be handled in compliance with the City
of South Bend's Subdivision Standards. The developer of the
project will be responsible for infrastructure improvements that
are directly related to building sites, the golf course and the
hotel site. The City will be responsible for the development of
city streets and utilities and will finance its portion of the
improvements through the sale of a Tax Increment Revenue Bond.
State funds are being sought for a portion of the improvements,
including an expanded Toll Road interchange. Should state funds
not immediately be available in the amount required, the project
schedule will be revised and the extent of the initial development
revised.
IV. PROVISION OF CITY SERVICES
A. Public Works
No additional expenditure from the City's general fund or operating
budget will be required to provide the proposed street and utility
improvements. Funds for the development of the internal city
street system will be provided by a Redevelopment Commission and
Authority's Tax Increment Bond Issue. The Redevelopment Commission
and Authority will sell bonds of approximately $6,000,000 to
finance the City's portion of the improvements by December 1990.
Development in this manner of an internal city street system shall
be complete within three (3) years after the effective date of the
annexation. Additional improvements to the major roads in the
area, including the Toll Road interchange, will be sought from the
State of Indiana's Transportation Improvement Fund and Toll Road
General Reserve Fund. Private developers will be required to
provide capital improvements directly related to the development
sites, golf course and hotel site.
The proposed streets represent less than one percent (1 %) of the
City's current road system and can be easily maintained with
existing personnel and equipment without additional expenditure of
money.
The existing wastewater treatment and collection systems can
provide service to the proposed area without any additional
expenditures by the City. The existing water system is adequate
and currently available to the Annexation Area. These services
shall be furnished to the Annexation Area immediately upon the
effective date of the annexation.
The City can also provide solid waste collection services as needed
to the Annexation Area without additional equipment or personnel
and without additional expenditure of money.
B. Police Protection
The Annexation Area's use, as well as its size and location,
necessitate the creation of a new police patrol beat adjacent to
the existing Beat 24 to provide adequate and comparable police
protection to the area. The additional beat will require 4.5
patrol officers to cover all three shifts and days off. Personnel
-2-
will spend approximately 20 percent of their time on patrol within
the area. Total yearly cost for personnel associated with the new
patrol beat is approximately $31,550, including supervision,
vacation coverage, and overtime as required. An additional patrol
vehicle, costing approximately $13,000 will also be needed for the
new beat. Total costs attributable to the creation of the new beat
is $44,550. Personnel costs will be included in the annual
operating budget of the Police Department. Vehicle costs will be
paid from the Cumulative Capital Development Fund or the General
Fund. Police protection of the scope detailed herein shall be
furnished to the Annexation Area within one (1) year after the
effective date of the annexation.
C. Fire Protection
Fire protection can be furnished immediately upon the effective
date of the annexation.
No site plan has been developed for this particular development.
When one is submitted, however, adjustments in personnel and
equipment will be made as necessary to provide adequate fire
protection.
Depending upon the final configuration of the roads and the
location of the buildings and golf course within the complex, fire
protection will be provided by either Station #11 at 3505 North
Bendix Drive, Station 7 at 1616 Portage Avenue, or Station 4 which
is located at 220 North Olive Street. Response times will be
comparable to other parts of the City near the Annexation Area
which are also served by stations 4, 7 and 11.
D. Neighborhood Code Enforcement
The Department of Neighborhood Code Enforcement can perform code
enforcement activities without acquiring additional equipment or
hiring of additional personnel.
The Humane Society of St. Joseph County currently provides animal
control services on a County -wide basis.
These services shall be furnished to the Annexation Area
immediately upon the effective date of the annexation.
E. Public Parks
There are adequate park facilities in the northwest area of the
City which can be utilized by persons within the Annexation Area,
immediately upon the effective date of the annexation. Parks and
facilities which are reasonably close to the Annexation Area are:
1) Voorde Park which is comprised of fourteen (14) acres,
containings a softball field, picnic tables and playground
equipment; and, 2) Boland Park, comprised of twenty -one (21) acres
containing three lighted tennis courts, a lighted softball diamond,
basketball courts and various picnic and playground facilities.
-3-
No additional personnel or equipment will be needed to provide
services to the Annexation Area.
V. HIRING PLAN
This annexation will not result in the elimination of jobs of
employees of another governmental entity.
