adequate entrances and exits for normal unimpeded traffic flow. There should be <br />ample parking for inventory, employees, vendors, and customers. Walmart and <br />Gates has and will comply in all areas overseen by South Bend authority and have <br />taken precautions in areas that are not governed. <br />The Special Exceptions request is for Walmart, VPA Promotions, and Gates Toyota. <br />Gates considers it a privilege not a right to partner with Walmart for these events. <br />The obvious area of opportunity for Walmart and VPA is leasing currently vacant <br />or seldom used space that is a significant distance from their retail facility. Over the <br />past thirty years every dealer in this community has participated in these types of <br />events all over Michiana. Similar events will occur several times this summer in <br />surrounding communities. Gates requests permission to stage this event in our own <br />community. We believe that this unique area of Walmart parking lot is one of the <br />few facilities that have been inherently constructed to handle this type of event by <br />having the appropriate access, lighting, and parking. An internal study conducted <br />by Gates recently revealed some relevant sales data. Nearly 30% of the sales <br />generated at our previous events were from outside the State of Indiana or our <br />County; LaPorte, Berrien, Cass, Marshall, Elkhart, just to name a few. This simply <br />confirms that Gates can create a regional draw that is beneficial to the surrounding <br />businesses and the City of South Bend. The submitted site plan for this event does <br />not ask for or include changes in landscape, structural integrity, permanent traffic <br />patterns, or any other demand that would interfere with the City of South Bend <br />Comprehensive Plan. <br />
