STAFF REPORT December 13, 1999 Initiated by the Common Council of the City of South Bend 1965-99 Location: generally between Linden Avenue on the south, Johnson Street on the east, Werwinski Street and Longley Avenue on the north, and Olive Street on the west City of South Bend REQUESTED ACTION: This is a Common Council initiated petition to rezone from "B" Residential, "A" Height and Area; and "C" Commercial, "A" and "D" Height and Area to "A" Residential, "A" Height and Area to allow uses permitted in the "A" Residential District. PRELIMINARY STAFF RECOMMENDATION: Based on information available prior to the public hearing, the staff recommends that this petition be sent to the Common Council with a favorable recommendation. The majority of the properties within the petition area are single family homes that are currently zoned "B" Residential or "C" Commercial. The proposed rezoning would bring this neighborhood's zoning in line with the current uses while helping to protect the viability of the single family residential area.
