8) This rezoning is requested to allow the following use(s): Fire Station
IF VARIANCE(S)ARE BEING REQUESTED(if not,please skip to next section): FILED

2) A statement on how each of the following standards for the granting of variances is rnet:
a) The approval will not be injurious to the public health,safety,morals and general welfare of the
community: Approving requested variances (I and 2) increases visibility for Fire Safety vehicles exiting
the Apparatus Bay, thereby improving public safety. In addition, reducing Landscaping requirements
along the East to none ensures that required trees do not impede the alleyway over time. Approving
requested variance#3 does not impact the public HSW because the building still maintains 3'from the
existing sidewalk and 16.5'from 21"St. while also allowing for appropriate stormwater routing along the
East side of the property.
b) The use and value of the area adjacent to the property included in the variance will not be affected in a
substantially adverse manner; and: The new station will improve the existing site conditions and
streetscapes along both Mishawaka Ave. and 21st Street, investing over$3,000,000 into the construction
of the station and site.
c) The strict application of the terms of this Ordinance would result in practical difficulties in the use of the
property: 1. Setbacks along Mishawaka strictly observed reduce the necessary visibility of the exiting
Fire Safety vehicles. 2. Perimeter landscaping as required along Mishawaka Ave (North Frontage) also
limits visibility of exiting Fire Safety vehicles. Perimeter landscaping along East side yard are limited in
appropriate growth area and may impede alleyway over time. Landscaping is provided where possible
and partially meets requirement.
IF A SPECIAL EXCEPTION USE IS BEING REQUESTED, (if not,please skip to next section):
1) The Special Exception Use(s)being requested: Special Exception:Fire Station in MU
2) A statement on how each of the following standards for the granting of a Special Exception Use is met:
a) The proposed use will not be injurious to the public health, safety,comfort,community moral standards,
convenience or general welfare: The station is a public safety facility and will improve the safety of the
public
b) The proposed use will not injure or adversely affect the use of the adjacent area or property values
therein: In addition to the new facility improving the existing site conditions, the existing fire station is
just 8 blocks away(facing Mishawaka Ave. on the same side of the street).
c) The proposed use will be consistent with the character of the district in which it is located and the land
uses authorized therein; and: As previously noted, the existing station is within a close proximity to the
proposed station. In addition to that, the proposed station will meet building height requirements and fit
within the existing setbacks along Mishawaka Ave.
d) The proposed use is compatible with the recommendations of the Comprehensive Plan.It meets response
times and fire suppression coverage requirements outlined within the Public Facilities and Services
section, specifically Objective PF 1.1.4
In the case of a Special Exception Use,the petitioner shall be held to the representations made on the Preliminary

District Uses and Development Standards:
The MU Mixed Use District is established to promote the development of the a dense
urban village environment. The regulations are intended to encourage all the elements of a
traditional urban village, including: storefront retail; professional offices; and, dwelling
units located either in townhouse developments or in the upper stories of mixed-use
buildings. The development standards in this district are designed to: encourage a
pedestrian oriented design throughout the district; and, maintain an appropriate pedestrian
scale, massing and relationship between buildings and structures within the district.
Site Plan Description:
The 0.69 acre site includes a proposed fire station oriented toward Mishawaka Avenue.
Parking and secondary access is provided along 21 st Avenue. The site complies with the
required landscaping and buffering.
Zoning and Land Use History And Trends:
A portion of this property was rezoned to Commercial in 2001. The majority of the site
was reclassified as Mixed Use with the adoption of the new Zoning Map in 2004.
Traffic and Transportation Considerations:
Mishawaka Avenue has 2 lanes with a designated bike lane. Just east of the site,the bike
lane is eliminated to allow for a designated left turn lane. 21 st Street has 2 lanes with on-
street parking.
Utilities:
The site will be served by municipal water and sewer.

The proposed fire station is designed to promote the public health and safety of the
APC# 2858-17 Page 2 of 4
Staff Report 2/8/2018
community.
2) The proposed use will not injure or adversely affect the use of the adjacent area
or property values therein;
With proper landscaping and buffering, the proposed use should not adversely affect the
use or value of adjacent properties.
3) The proposed use will be consistent with the character of the district in which it is
located and the land uses authorized therein;
The proposed fire station is consistent with the mixed-use zoning district and the character
of the area in which it is located.
4)The proposed use is compatible with the recommendations of the Comprehensive
Plan.
The proposed fire station is consistent with City Plan, South Bend Comprehensive Plan
November 2006) Policy LU 2.2 Pursue a mix of land uses along major corridors and other
locations identified on the Future Land Use Map.
The petitioner is seeking the following variance(s):
1) from the 12' maximum front yard and building setback to 50' on Mishawaka Avenue
2)from the minimum 24' width of a parking maneuvering aisle to 20;
3) from the required minimum of 70%glazing on the front fagade to 11%, and from the
required 12% glazing on the secondary fagade to 10%
State statutes and the Zoning Ordinance require that certain standards must be met
before a variance can be approved. The standards and their justifications are as follows:
1)The approval will not be injurious to the public health, safety, morals and general
welfare of the community;
The proposed variances have no impact on the public health, safety and general welfare of
the community.
2) The use and value of the area adjacent to the property included in the variance
will not be affected in a substantially adverse manner;

not be adversely impacted.
3) The strict application of the terms of this Chapter would result in practical
difficulties in the use of the property
The strict application of the setbacks along Mishawaka would reduce visibility of the
exiting Fire Safety vehicles. Strict application of the drive aisle width and glazing would
decrease efficiency of the site, which is designed to improve energy use (for LEED) and
improve security for the equipment stored within the building.
Staff Comments:
The staff has no additional comments.
APC# 2858-17 Page 3 of 4
Staff Report 2/8/2018
Recommendation:
Based on information available prior to the public hearing,the staff recommends sending
the rezoning petition and Special Exception Use to the Common Council with a favorable
recommendation. The staff recommends approval of the variances.
Analysis:
Rezoning the site to MU Mixed Use will allow a consistent zoning district for harmonious
development of the site. Approval of the Special Exception Use for the fire station will
allow the City to improve its public safety services to the community.

Subject: Petition to rezone various parcels and seeking a special exception for Fire Station No, 9
President Brewer and members of the commission:
I write to you on behalf of my mother- and father-in-law regarding the petition to rezone 2104, 2108 and 2112
E. Mishawaka Ave. and 914 and 918 S. 21st St. from Single Family and Two Family District and Mixed Use
District to Mixed Use District and seeking a special exception for a fire station.
Chingiz and Renada Ragimbekov, 922 s. 21st St., live directly south of the proposed fire station. With the
demolition of several homes for the project, theirs is now the only property contiguous to the site, which
otherwise is bounded by Mishawaka Avenue to the north, 21st Street to the west and the north-south alley
between 21st Street and Ironwood Drive to the east.
Given their unique relationship to the property, they previously met with Fire Chief Stephen Cox and Kyle
Copelin, principal with Epoch Architecture+Planning, to request that a white, vinyl privacy fence be erected
along the southern edge of the property to further shield their hoine from the station and to keep any trash or
debris from blowing into their backyard. The fence also would prevent people from using their backyard as a
shortcut between Mishawaka Avenue or 21 st Street and the east-west alley that runs alongside their house and
provides access to their driveway.
While they are pleased to see that the fence has been included in the proposed site plan for the project, they
would like to request that it be added to the petition in the form of a written commitment as well. This would
provide them with a degree of comfort in the form of an avenue for legal recourse should plans for the project
change in any way between now and the end of construction.
Subject to this commitment, they offer their full support for the project,which will greatly enhance public
safety in River Park with the addition of an ambulance and river rescue unit; provide for vastly improved
working and living conditions for the firefighters themselves; and improve the overall look of the area with the
redevelopment of several formerly vacant properties.
Thank you for your consideration of this matter.

Re: Menard, Inc. Petition to Vacate Public Rights-of-Way
South Bend, Indiana
Clerk Kareemah Fowler-
Menard, Inc. is relocating from its existing store to a brand new location to be built
upon the site of the long-vacant former K-Mart located at 4640 South Michigan Street.
Key to that effort is the vacation of the southern portion of the St. Joseph Street right-of-
I
ad
way adjacent to the parcels Menard, Inc. owns. To that end, I am enclosing the following:
1. Petition to Vacate Public Rights-ofWay
2.Proposed Ordinance
3.Envelopes addressed and stamped with certified mail for all property
owners within 150' feet of the right-of-way to be vacated. Also
enclosed are copies of the Ship Request Forms for the City's
tracking purposes.
4.Check in the amount of$150.00.
5. A copy of the radius map.
6. This letter explaining the request.
Menard, Inc. owns property on both sides of the proposed vacation. The vacation is
necessary to obtain additional north to south distance for our site planning needs. The
request also moves the southern limits of the City right-of-way back to the realigned
intersection with Callendar Street, a more logical termination point for St. Joseph Street. I
look forward to discussing the request with the City Council. I would appreciate
confirmation of the meeting dates and times. I maybe reached at 715.876.2810.
