Boulevard just west of Woodcliff. The sewer had collapsed and the entire length
of pipe on Corby from Woodlawn to the lift station was on the verge of

and placed approximately 60 tons of crushed concrete for the road base. The

- Proposal — Extension of Sanitary Sewer & Water Lines along Douglas Road
Mr. Carl Littrell, Engineering, stated that this proposal is for design services for a

Mr. Carl Littrell, Engineering, stated that this Agreement Update will be paid by
the Studebaker National Museum.
- Alley Vacation - Next to Lots 85, 86, & 87 on Brookfield Street in Prairie Heights
Addition
Mr. Carl Littrell, Engineering, stated that an elevation change and the existence of
a substantial wood fence will prevent the neighboring property from easily and
effectively benefiting from the vacation. It also seems that the petitioner has
already taken possession of the alley and uses it as a parking space. An amicable
agreement between the neighbor and the petitioner must be reached and recorded
as to the division of the alley, preferably through a real estate professional.
- Alley Vacation — Between Lots 300 and 331 off of Franklin in Shivley's Addition
Mr. Carl Littrell, Engineering, stated that the petitioner, Mr. Michael Ludwig,
owns lots 34 and 35 next to the alley to be vacated. Mr. Ludwig has a long
history with Code Enforcement regarding housekeeping at lot 35. He has not
a "7
AGENDA SESSION AUGUST 4, 2005
provided a hard surface for parking his vehicles or boats and has not been
responsive to Code Enforcement's concerns regarding the current conditions. The
vacation of this alley may have an adverse affect on the neighboring vacant lot
that is owned by the City of South Bend, lot 36, but will help widen the lot to
make it more feasible for a building to be placed on it.
- Street Closure — Washington From Walnut to Cherry
This item was discussed by the Board members. The Police Department
recommended a time change and Customer Service requested that the street
closure consist of only one block instead of two.
- Application for Sidewalk Cafe Permit — The Vine
Mr. Carl Littrell, Engineering, stated that the Vine has already set up their
sidewalk caf6 despite the fact that their application was not approved. He
attempted to talk to the manager, however she was not in. The current setup is
unacceptable as the guidelines state that the equipment must be taken in at night
and the barrels used as a blockade obstruct pedestrian traffic after events at the
Morris Civic Center.
- Safety Reports
Mr. Matt Chlebowski, Central Services; Mr. Jack Dillon, Environmental Services;
and Mr. Andy Wierzbicki and Mr. John Wiltrout, Water Works, presented their

RECOMMENDATION - PETITION TO VACATE AN ALLEY — NEXT
86 & 87 — ALLEY ON BROOKFIELD STREET IN PRARIE AVENUE HEIGHTS
ADDITION
Mr. Gilot indicated that Mr. Trinidad Coria, 2004 Prairie Avenue, South Bend, Indiana,
has submitted a request to vacate the above referred to alley. Mr. Gilot advised that the
Board is in receipt of recommendations concerning this Vacation Petition from the Area
Plan Commission, Police Department, Fire Department, Sanitation, and the Department
of Public Works. Department of Economic Development maintains an objection, stating
that this alley vacation would take access away from three properties. Engineering stated
that because of an elevation change and the existence of a substantial wood fence, the
other neighboring property cannot easily and effectively benefit from the vacation. The
petitioner has already taken possession of the alley and had the use of it as parking space
for many years. Engineering would be interested to know the opinion of the Legal
Department as to whether there is already adverse possession or whether the petitioner
should compensate the neighbor for usurping the neighbor's rights to the property.
Therefore, Mr. Gilot made a motion that the Clerk send a letter to the petitioner with a
recommendation subject to addressing these concerns. Mr. Littrell seconded the motion
which carried.
RECOMMENDATION - PETITION TO VACATE AN ALLEY — BETWEEN LOTS 35
& 36 IN THE INDIANA AVENUE ADDITION
Mr. Gilot indicated that Mr. Michael D. Ludwig, 615 Indiana Avenue, South Bend,
Indiana, has submitted a request to vacate the above referred to alley. Mr. Gilot advised
that the Board is in receipt of recommendations concerning this Vacation Petition from
the Area Plan Commission, Police Department, Fire Department, Sanitation, and the
Department of Public Works. Department of Economic Development maintains an
objection to the vacation with no comments. The Fire Department stated that they do not
REGULAR MEETING AUGUST 8, 2005
object if the City of South Bend is willing to give up their rights to the alley. Engineering
stated that the City of South Bend owns the lot on the other side of the above referred to
alley and that the petitioner has a history with the Department of Code Enforcement.
Engineering is concerned that allowing this vacation would not allow the City to dispose
of the vacant neighboring lot in a way that promotes a better neighborhood. Code
Enforcement stated there are violations regarding the petitioner parking on his empty lot
without a concrete base. Mr. Inks stated that he did not want to take action on this alley
vacation as long as there are existing violations. Mr. Gilot agreed. Mr. Littrell stated that
the Board of Public Works should inform the petitioner that the Board should not support
this vacation until he repairs his code violations and also presents to the Board of Public
works how the vacation will benefit the current City owned lot. Therefore, Mr. Littrell
made a motion that the Clerk send a letter to the petitioner addressing these concerns.
Mr. Gilot seconded the motion which carried.

Board is in receipt of favorable recommendations concerning this Vacation Petition from
