FAVORABLE RECOMMENDATION - PETITION TO VACATE AN ALLEY AND STREET
Mr. Gilot indicated that a request to vacate an alley and street has been submitted to the Board for
approval:
The north/south alley west of Logan Street from Edison Road to Kale Street. The first street
to be vacated is a portion of Kale Street from Logan Street, west to the east line of Edison
Road Addition First Replat. The second street to be vacated is one half of the right of way
of Logan Street from Edison Road to the north right of way line of said Kale Street, being
a part of Edison Road addition to the City of South Bend, St. Joseph County, Indiana.
The Division of Engineering, Area Plan Commission, Community & Economic Development, Fire
Department, Solid Waste, Police Department and the City Attorney's office submitted favorable
recommendations. Area Plan stated noted that vacating the alleys as shown would create a dead end
alley, which is against Common Council policy. They recommended that if the alley is vacated, that
it be done so subject to a turn -around easement for the dead end alley, and also any cross access or
utility easements that may be necessary. In regard to the partial Hickory Road vacation, the staff
recognizes that the new configuration of Hickory Road along with the proposed development negates
the need for this land a public right of way. If Hickory Road and/or Kale Street are vacated, utility
easements may be needed. Therefore, Mr. Littrell made a motion that the Board send a favorable
recommendation to the Common Council concerning this Vacation Petition. Mr. Gilot seconded the
motion which carried.

that the Consent be approved. Mr. Inks seconded the motion which carried.
