APPROVE CHANGE ORDER - ORGANIC RESOURCES ASPHALT PAVING PAD #2 -
PROJECT NO. 96-37
Mr. Littrell advised that Mr. Jack Dillon, Director of Environmental Services, has submitted Change
Order No. 1 on behalf of Rieth Riley Construction, South Bend, Indiana indicating that the Contract
amount be increased $21,192.00 for a new Contract sum including this Change Order in the amount
of $109,414. It was noted that the increase represents a 24% increase in the cost of public works.
In this instance, the increase results from a significant delay in the project's progress. The pad was
originally scheduled to be paved in September of 1996. The scheduled paving time could not proceed
because a resident near Organic Resources requested an environmental hearing with IDEM. The
hearing was scheduled and then dropped in November, 1996. By November, the asphalt plants had
been closed for the winter, and the pad paving had to be rescheduled for the spring of 1997. Upon
inspection of the pad, it was determined that the base grading was significantly altered and needed
to be corrected with an additional 1,766 tons of crushed recycled concrete for it be structurally sound.
Accordingly, this change order can be approved as a permissible exception to the rule set out in
Indiana Code 36-1-12-18. Upon a motion made by Ms. Roemer, seconded by Mr. Littrell and
carried, the Change Order was approved.

is situated in Rockstroh's second addition to the City of South Bend, St. Joseph County,
Indiana, between lots 8 and 9; and
Also, the alley to be vacated is described as the first east -west alley south of East Bartlett
Street from the east right -of way of the first north -south alley to the west right-of-way of
north St. Joseph Street for a distance of Approximately 165 feet and a width of 14 feet. Part

County, Indiana, between Lots 33 and 34.

REGULAR MEETING JULY 28, 1997
UNFAVORABLE RECOMMENDATION - PETITION TO VACATE AN ALLEY
Mr. Littrell indicated that the Common Council has submitted to the Board a Vacation Petition as
completed by Mr. Paul Costello, 303 West Angela Boulevard, South Bend, Indiana to vacate the
following alley:
The first east -west alley north of West Angela Boulevard from the east right-of-way of the
first north-south"alley west of North Lafayette Boulevard to the west right-of-way of West
Angela Boulevard for a length of approximately 665.2 feet and a width.of 7 feet. Part located
in Parkovash addition to Navarre Place, City of South Bend, St. Joseph County, Indiana.
Mr. Littrell advised that the Board is in receipt of unfavorable recommendations concerning this
Vacation Petition from, the Area Plan Commission and the Department of Economic Development.
The staff of Area Plan has reviewed this petition and has found that the request does not meet at least
one of the standards for vacation, that "the vacation would not make access to the lands of the
aggrieved person by means of public way difficult or inconvenient." Vacation of this alley would
deny access to the garages located on Lots 302, 303, 304, 305, 305, and 307. In addition the
property owners of Lots 303 through 307 have not signed the petition to vacate. - While this may not
affect the legality of the Petition, it is Area Plans' opinion that it is important to note that the property
owners that will be denied access by this vacation have not signed the petition to vacate. Area Plan
recommends that this petition be denied, unless it is amended to exclude at least the portion of the
alley that provides access to Lots 303 through 307. It appears that lots 308 through 316 all have
access from Angela. The Department of Economic Development, Police Department, Fire
Department, Sanitation, Department of Economic Development and the Department of Public Works
concur. Therefore, Ms. Roemer made a motion that the Board send an unfavorable recommendation
to the Common Council concerning this Vacation Petition. Mr. Littrell seconded the motion which
carried.
