In accordance with Section 17-4 of the Code of Ordinances of the City of South Bend — (Sec. 17-4 Drains
and downspouts disconnection requirements, limited exceptions), and with the City's Downspout
exemption policy that was subsequently established and approved, the below listed property has been
deemed exempt from the requirement to disconnect its downspouts from the City's sewer system. Please
see the downspout disconnection exemption application attached hereto for further information.
Property Address:
237 North Michigan Street
South Bend,
Indiana,
4661-46061
In summary, the reason for this exemption is as follows:
• Disconnections are not technically feasible - downspouts are internal to the building and
connect to an underground drainage system;
• The building is registered heritage structure and redirecting the drainage system will harm
its architectural finish;
• Financial hardship - the scope of work is estimated to cost $300,000 at a minimum, which
doesn't include historical re -work costs.
Please see the attached photos.
An exemption issued may be revoked where any information provided in the application or in support of
the application by the property owner(s) or any person on his or her behalf is false, misleading or
inaccurate in whole or part.
The City reserves the right to revise the application form or the exemption process from time to time. The
City reserves the right to amend, modify or revoke the exemption provided under South Bend Code of
Ordinance, Chapter 17-4 (C) 1 or 2 as it deems appropriate.
