efficient mix of land uses and open space; ensure compatibility with the Comprehensive
Plan, surrounding developments and future development needs; establish a creative
approach in building design through architectural compatibility with adjacent buildings,

APC# 2871-18 Pagel of 3
Staff Report 7/9/2018
Access points are shown on the frontage with Lincolnway and Pine Road. Development
within 200'of the road frontage must be landscaped in compliance with the CB
Community Business landscaping regulations. A proposed sign plan including a Bypass
sign,main entrance sign, secondary access sign and provisions for wall and roof signs is
included.
Zoning and Land Use History And Trends:
A portion of the petitioned property was rezoned to LI Light Industrial District and
annexed into South Bend in 2016. One of the parcels included in this petition was rezoned
to C: Commercial District(Unincorporated St. Joseph County) in 1996.
Traffic and Transportation Considerations:
US Highway 20 expands from two to four lanes and intersects with the St. Joseph Valley
Parkway adjacent to the site. Primary access will be from US Highway 20. Secondary
access would be provided from Pine Road which is two lanes.
Utilities:
The site will be served by municipal water and sewer.
Agency Comments:
County Engineering anticipates that INDOT will require a traffic impact study that will
help guide transportation improvements for US Highway 20. This would help the City and
County as well in evaluating necessary road/intersection improvements. INDOT
considerations will be needed at a future date. County Engineering also anticipates
recommending Pine Road improvements to accommodate the future projected traffic. City
Engineering stated they have a consultant to help survey and design the sewer extension to
the project. They also noted that per INDOT policy,the portioner will have to pay for the
new intersection and any improvements with the access point on US Highway 20. City
Engineering also requested more detailed plans for their continued review of the site. The
Department of Community Investment offers a favorable recommendation.
Commitments:
There is an existing written commitment on the property, stating the following: Upon
filing of an Improvement Location Permit for the development of any portion of the
Airport Authority Annexation Area, a Pine Road Improvement Plan must be submitted by
the developer(s) of the Area. Such Improvement Plan must include a traffic analysis, an
engineering study of the condition of Pine Road, a cost analysis of required improvements
or reconstruction and any other information requested by both the St. Joseph County Board
of Commissioners,the South Bend Board of Public Works and the Indiana Department of
Transportation. At a minimum,the Improvement Plan must address the area of Pine Road
from U.S. 20 on the North to Edison Road on the South and the intersection of Pine Road
and U.S. 20. Any improvements or reconstruction required will be at the cost of the
developer(s),or as otherwise negotiated by the respective governmental entities.
Criteria to be considered in reviewing rezoning requests,per IC 36-74-603:
1. Comprehensive Plan:
Policy Plan:
The petition is consistent with City Plan, South Bend Comprehensive Plan(2006),
Objective 6.1: Promote orderly and planned growth that expands outward from current city
APC 4 2871-18 Page 2 of 3
Staff Report 7/9/2018
limits; and Objective ED 9: Increase the amount of revenue generated from tourism.
Land Use Plan:
The Future Land Use Plan identifies this area for light industrial development.
Plan Implementation/Other Plans:
There are no other plans in effect for this area.
2. Current Conditions and Character:
The properties along US Highway 20 near the intersection with the St. Joseph Valley
Parkway have developed as manufacturing and commercial uses. The properties along
Pine Road are rural residential.
3. Most Desirable Use:
The most desirable use for the property would be one that is harmonious with the
surrounding mix of industrial, commercial and residential properties.
4. Conservation of Property Values:
With proper buffering and screening,the neighboring residential properties should not be
adversely affected.
5. Responsible Development And Growth:
It is responsible development and growth to develop large areas of interest close to major
intersections and near transportation connections such as the South Bend International Airport
and South Shore Line.
Staff Comments:
The staff has no additional comments at this time.
Recommendation:
Based on information available prior to the public hearing, the staff recommends that the
rezoning petition be sent to the Common Council with a favorable recommendation.
Analysis:
Utilizing a Planned Unit Development will allow for a large mixed-use project that will be
a major point of interest and increase the amount of tourists coming to the City of South
Bend. Locating this project near a major road, air and rail connection will help serve the
visitors to the site by providing multiple modes of transportation.

INTRODUCTION
SBCC Development Corp. seeks to rezone 82.62 acres
from C (Commercial), LI (Light Industrial), and M
Manufacturing Industrial) to a Planned Unit
Development (PUD) classification in order to provide for
a unique mixed-use development. Many parcels of the
tract are already annexed into the City of South Bend
Parcels: 025-1021-035110, 025-1021-035201, 025-1021-
035202, 025-1021-035301, 025-1021-035303, 025-1021-
035302, & 025-1021-036004), though the remainder of the
parcels currently under Unincorporated St. Joseph
County jurisdiction (Parcels: 004-1020-034401, 004-1020- w
0345, 004-1021-0352, & 004-1020-034501) will be annexed
into the City of South Bend as well (See Figure 1). This
mixed-use development, "The South Bend Chocolate
Company," will include two (2) major land use areas:The i
Core District and The Agricultural District. This PUD
s
ordinance serves as a general concept plan, much as a
comprehensive plan identifies future conceptual land
use patterns for a community.Figure 1:Map of Existing Zoning and Municipal Limits
The developed South Bend Chocolate Company tract will be reminiscent of a fluid and
compact old world village. The Core District will host a casual, open-air market atmosphere,
much like classic European cities of the past. The balance of the property will be rural,
consistent with the Michiana region, but will also provide modern accommodations.
Development of the tract will grow organically in order to achieve this distinct mix of uses. Roads
and paths within the development will wind through the vernacular buildings, outdoor rooms
and natural areas, giving visitors the opportunity to explore and discover the many surprises and
marvels at "The South Bend Chocolate Company" that will change seasonally. This distinctive
development will effectively take visitors back in time to a unique settlement with nature at its
center,while at the same time will establish a sustainable operation that benefits the community
as a whole.
The South Bend Chocolate Company" will be a regional destination for local residents and out-
of-town visitors alike. Not only will the development host the primary production facility for the
world-renowned South Bend Chocolate Company, but the site will offer year-round
entertainment, education, retail, and hospitality opportunities for all ages. Visitors may return
multiple times over the course of the year to have a different experience each time. "The South
Bend Chocolate Company" will be a one-of-a-kind development with a significant positive
economic impact on the local economy by offering agricultural, industrial and natural tourism
opportunities on one tract-a site truly devoted to "makers and growers" of South Bend and the
region. The development will emphasize the importance of preserving valuable agricultural
land and the natural environment. Visitors will have the opportunity to explore and learn about
agriculture and the natural environment, interact with animals, dine on fresh and local food,
learn about The South Bend Chocolate Company, explore the archeological history of Indiana,
enjoy luxurious overnight accommodations, participate in festivals, and much more. "The South
Bend Chocolate Company" will truly be a timeless destination for people of all ages to enjoy,
explore, and to return to time and time again.

MAJOR LAND USE AREAS
The shapes and locations of the major land use areas are formed by both the topography of the
land and existing trails and paths. These areas are intended to be approximate designations
rather than definite boundaries. The boundaries are based on initial programming and may shift
due to market changes and/or changes in programming. These approximate internal
boundaries are thus subject to change in accordance with the Administrative Section of the
PUD Ordinance. "The South Bend Chocolate Company" will evolve organically, though there
are general development standards for the development as a whole, ensuring the public
health, safety, morals and general welfare of the community, which are described in
subsequent sections of this PUD ordinance.

Ordinance.
BUILDING DESIGN AND ARCHITECTURE
A. Existing and New Buildings
The buildings within the PUD will be a combination of existing and new construction.
Existing buildings will be renovated and repurposed for uses that will complement the
mixed-use development. Existing buildings found off-site may be brought on-site and
implemented into the overall campus design. New buildings will be designed and
REVISED DRAFT 4_2018.07.18 Page 4 of 12
constructed in such a fashion to fit into the context and theme of "The South Bend
Chocolate Company" development.
B. Height Limitations
Maximum heights of such structures will be dictated by the Federal Aviation
Administration and the South Bend Airport Authority or a maximum of 80 feet, whichever
is less.
C. Building Materials
Materials of buildings may include, but are not limited to:
Aged wood siding
Composite board siding
Block/ brick (natural state or painted)
Metal wall panel (factory finished or aged)
Metal roof panel (factory finished or aged)
Architectural roof shingle
D. Architectural Review Board
All new construction must be approved by the Architectural Review Board, which will be
established by the owner. The Architectural Review Board will issue a letter of approval
for the Area Plan Commission Staff to issue any building permit.
THE EDGES
Both Major Land Use Areas will have different "Edges," otherwise known as requirements for the
tract boundaries. Each area has different uses, site locations, and potential nuisances, thus
necessitating the need for different requirements. These edges will be properly maintained in
order to better allow for the flexibility of development within the interior areas of the PUD. These
interior areas of the PUD will have internal setbacks of 0 feet. In the event that there is a building
or structure (as defined by the City of South Bend Zoning Ordinance) which existed in 2018 that
does not comply with the development standards set forth below at the time of approval of this
PUD Ordinance, that existing building or structure (as defined by the City of South Bend Zoning
Ordinance)will be a considered legal nonconforming structure.
A. The Core District
The Core District abuts Lincoln Highway to the north, the Lincoln Highway and U.S.
Highway 31 interchange to the northeast, and private property owners to the west.
Setback: Any temporary use, building or structure (as defined by the City of South Bend
Zoning Ordinance) must be a minimum of 50 feet from any public right-of-way line.
The portion of The Core District that abuts the industrial property to the west (Parcel ID:
004-1020-034405) will have a minimum 10 foot setback to the property line.
Parking and Interior Access Drives will have a setback of 15 feet from the property line.
Landscaping: Any portion of the tract that is within 200 feet of any public right-of-way
must comply with the Community Business District Landscaping Standards (front yard) as
defined by the City of South Bend Zoning Ordinance,with the exception that Foundation
Landscaping shall not be required along the Bypass.
REVISED DRAFT 4_2018.07.18 Page 5 of 12
The portion of The Core District that abuts private residential property to the west will
maintain a "Type C: Full Screening" buffer zone as set forth in the City of South Bend
Zoning Ordinance.
B. The Agricultural District
The Agricultural District abuts private residential property to the north, south, and west,
and the Lincoln Highway and U.S. Highway 31 interchange to the east.
Setback: This is a fluid area that will evolve flexibly, provided that no temporary use,
building or structure (as defined by the City of South Bend Zoning Ordinance) may be
located within a minimum of 20 feet of any property line. This 20-foot buffer zone must
remain in its natural and existing state (determined by the existing conditions at the time
of approval of this PUD Ordinance).
Any temporary use, building or structure (as defined by the City of South Bend Zoning
Ordinance) must be a minimum of 50 feet from any public right-of-way line.
Landscaping: Any portion of the tract that is within 200 feet of any public right-of-way
must comply with the Community Business District Landscaping Standards (front yard) as
defined by the City of South Bend Zoning Ordinance. The portion of The Agricultural
District that abuts private residential property will maintain a "Type C: Full Screening"
buffer zone as set forth in the City of South Bend Zoning Ordinance.
ACCESS & TRAFFIC
The primary access point will be on Lincoln Highway (US Route 20), generally opposite Olive
Road. The State of Indiana Department of Transportation is the agency having jurisdiction for
final access plans.
There will also be a secondary access point on Pine Road, established for emergency vehicles
only on a regular basis. Throughout the year, however, there may be periodic special occasions
and festivals. For these special events, "The South Bend Chocolate Company" may apply for a
special permit from the City of South Bend in order to use the access point on Pine Road to
better accommodate traffic destined for a special event.
Facilities accommodating vehicular traffic within the PUD will be primarily clustered in The Core
District. There will be walking, wagon, and biking trails throughout the rest of "The South Bend
Chocolate Company" tract that will accommodate various modes of transportation. The
limited vehicular circulation on the property serves to maintain the natural and agricultural
character of the development.
UTILITIES & DRAINAGE
The site will be served by municipal services.
SIGNAGE
REVISED DRAFT 4_2018.07.18 Page 6 of 12
i
The South Bend Chocolate Company" will have a unique brand of signage. Because this is a
mixed-use development, there is a need for multiple sign types and sizes. While the Core District
will create a small urban-like core, "The South Bend Chocolate Company Project" is not an
urban development. Therefore, special standards must be established. The text below provides
general sign types that will make up "The South Bend Chocolate Company" signage plan,
including development standards and graphics that suggest the types of signs that would be
appropriate. These graphics and images are examples only and in no way do they limit what
would be permissible within the development.
General Regulations
All signs are subject to review and approval by the Architectural Review Board.
Any sign that contains an electronic message center (EMC) will have a maximum of eight (8)
second intervals and will not have live animation.
BUILDING SIGNS
The following building signs are exempt from any requirements: Signs not visible from the public
right-of-way, non-illuminated wall signs in excess of 200 feet from the public right-of-way, and
any murals containing no words.
Wall Signs (that do not meet the above-listed exemption requirements)
Maximum Surface Area:10%of the facade or tenant space
Maximum Number. Unlimited
Example: See Figure 3
Roof Signs
Maximum Surface Area: 300 square feet
Maximum Height:4 feet above top of building roof

City of South Bend Zoning Ordinance.
PROHIBITED SIGNS
Off-Premises" signs and flashing signs, as defined in the City of South Bend Zoning Ordinance,
shall be prohibited.
PARKING AND LOADING
There will be no minimum number of parking spaces required for this development. Among
formal parking areas (everything within 200 feet of the public right-of-way), informal parking
areas, lawns, and meadows, there will be ample parking to support the facilities and will comply
with ADA regulations. All formal parking areas must meet the design guidelines with respect to
size as set forth in the City of South Bend Zoning Ordinance. Loading areas will comply with the
City of South Bend Zoning Ordinance. No loading / unloading will take place in any public right-
of-way, and there will be proper maneuvering and turn-around facilities for commercial
vehicles.
Informal parking areas may have a compacted gravel surface. Wooden logs or large boulders
may serve as parking blocks. Vehicular roadways may either have a compacted gravel surface
or will use permeable pavement.
LIGHTING
All lighting must meet the requirements of the City of South Bend Zoning Ordinance.
OPEN SPACE
Because nature is at the core of "The South Bend Chocolate Company" planned development,
open space preservation is one of the goals. The more intense, commercial development /
activity will cluster in The Core District, thus preserving more space for agriculture and
environmental amenities throughout the remainder of the PUD.
ADMINISTRATION
A. Variances to the General Development standards established by the PUD Ordinance for
this development may be approved by the Area Board of Zoning Appeals.
B. The Executive Director of the Area Plan Commission will have authority to determine if a
proposed changes would be considered as a "Major" or "Minor" modification or if a
proposed change is consistent with the PUD. Major modifications will require the PUD to
be approved as required by the City of South Bend's rezoning process.
C. This site is subject to written commitments as recorded in the St. Joseph County Recorders
Office, Document #1701542.
D. Final site plans will require review by the South Bend International Airport.

Dear Council Members,
At the July 16, 2018 meeting of the Historic Preservation Commission of South Bend & St. Joseph
County, the Commission held second reading on the proposed Local Landmark Designation for
1040 West Washington, commonly known as the Engman Public Natatorium and the current home
of the IUSB Civil Rights Heritage Center. A representative of the Civil Rights Heritage Center spoke
in favor of the nomination, and none spoke in opposition. The Commission unanimously passed a
Resolution recommending to the Common Council the establishment of 1040 West Washington, for
Historic Landmark status.
A copy of Resolution No. 18-02 is enclosed, as well as a copy of the Proposed Local Landmark staff
report, a draft of the proposed ordinance, and a signed Owner Consent form. Historic Preservation
Specialist Adam Toering will present this proposal to the Council. The Historic Preservation
Commission request its inclusion on the upcoming Council agenda and staff is available to answer
any questions you may have.

CITY CI-ERK,SOUTH BEND, IN
ORDINANCE NO.
w...__._ ...... _.._
AN ORDINANCE OF THE COMMON COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF SOUTH
BEND,INDIANA,AMENDING THE ZONING ORDINANCE AND
ESTABLISHING HISTORIC LANDMARK STATUS FOR THE STRUCTURE
AND REAL PROPERTY KNOWN AS THE CIVIL.RIGHTS HERITAGE CENTER
FORMERLY LOCATED AT 1040 WEST
WASHINGTON STREET,IN THE CITY OF SOUTH BEND,INDIANA
STATEMENT OF PURPOSE AND INTENT
The building and a portion of its exterior grounds including the former pool now
a reflecting garden,located at 1040 West Washington Street(the"Property"), in the City
of South Bend, Indiana, currently known as the Civil Rights Heritage Center, and
formerly as the Engman Natatorium, an all-white "public pool" from 1922 until its
integration in 1950, played a unique role in the civil rights history of South Bend.
The current owner of the Property has petitioned the Historic Preservation
Commission of South Bend and St. Joseph County (the "Commission") to have the
Property designated as a Historic Landmark pursuant to South Bend City OrdinanceNo.
5565-73,as amended. The Property is now a site for the recording, preservation, and
highlighting of the struggles of all people for equal rights and social justice.
The Property was opened 1922, and is recognized in the Indiana Historic Sites
and Structures Inventory of South Bend with a rating of"Outstanding" meaning that the
property may be eligible forNational Register listing.
The Commission's staff prepared a report and recommendation for the
Commission, as did the Commission's Historic Landmarks Committee, both of which
reports were approved by the Commission at its meeting on July 16, 2018. At that time
public hearing was held and the Commission unanimously approved a Resolution
recommending that this Council designate 1040 West Washington as a Local Historic
Landmark. (Exhibit 1 hereto). The building meets the criteria in at least three areas.
Historical and cultural significance.
When it opened in 1922 as a"Public Bath House and Swimming Pool" the Natatorium
excluded African American persons. Around 1946 after the Natatorium was about to be reopened
after closure for repairs,local civil rights activist and lawyer Chester Allen requested that because
there were over 5,000 citizens of color living in South Bend,that all racial restrictions be dropped
so that all persons could use this public building.The race restrictions were not lifted at that time,
but a schedule was later arranged so that African Americans could use the pool. The pool was
fully integrated in 1950.
The historical significance of this structure is best captured by a statement from George
Garner,Curator of the Civil Rights Heritage Center: "No other building in the City speaks to the
history of the African American experience like the Natatorium...We believe that activism works
best when rooted in an understanding of the challenges communities have faced for generations
and the experiences of those who had fought for positive changes."
Its suitability for preservation.
The building was constructed in 1921-1922 and was designed by Walter W.
Schneider,a local architect of note,to model the Culver Natatorium and also the Chicago
Athletic Club. The Natatorium was constructed with a top of the line heating system
and innovative plumbing and pumps. It is Neo-Classical in design. In 2010 extensive
modifications were made resulting in the building's current configuration. At that time
portions of the actual pool were demolished and replaced with a contemplative garden.
Educational Value.
The basic form and structure of the original 1922 building is intact, with the
fagade remaining virtually unchanged and the interior and back two thirds of the original
building adopted for 20th century usage. The major exterior change in 2010 consists of
the transformation of most of the original pool to a contemplative garden. This alteration
is in keeping with the highly significant history of the building as a symbol of the
transition from a segregated public space to an integrated facility due to the efforts of
local civil rights champions.
The Commission conducted a public hearing on July 16, 2018, for the purposes of
hearing comments on the designation of the Property as a Historic Landmark and for
delivering a recommendation to the Common Council. Following the public hearing, the
Commission gave its favorable recommendation to the Common Council of the City of South
Bend to designate the Property as a Historic Landmark pursuant to Ordinance No. 5565- 73,
as amended.
Based on the HPC's Local Landmarks Criteria as adopted by the Common Council,
and based upon the Commission's Resolution and recommendation, the site at 1040
West Washington Street, South Bend, Indiana, should be designated as Local Historic
Landmark.
NOW,THEREFORE,BE IT ORDAINED BY THE COMMON COUNCIL OF
THE CITY OF SOUTH BEND,INDIANA,AS FOLLOWS:
Section 1. The building now known as the Civil Rights Heritage Center and
formerly as the Engman Natatorium, located at 1040 West Washington Street,
South Bend, St. Joseph County, Indiana, together with its surrounding grounds and
structures including the original pool now used as a reflecting garden,but excluding
the parking lot, is hereby designated and established as a Historic Landmark of the
City of South Bend, Indiana pursuant to Ordinance No. 5565-73, as amended,
which realty excluding parking lot is described more specifically as follows:

OF SOUTH BEND AND ST. JOSEPH COUNTY
JULY 2018
Engman Natatorium
Pursuant to City of South Bend Ordinance No. 10572-17, as adopted by the Common
Council,the structure located at 1040 West Washington, commonly known as the
Engman Public Natatorium, is recommended by the Historic Preservation Commission
to the Common Council for designation as a Local Historic Landmark.
Designation of historic landmarks is considered on the basis of:
1. Historical and cultural significance
2. Educational value
3. Suitability for preservation
Historical Context:
This property is located on West Washington in South Bend. The property was platted
as Bank Lot number eight-nine. The site was formerly at the corner of the now vacated
Chapel Lane.
The lot was donated to the City of South Bend by Harry Engman, Jr. Mr. Engman was a
partner in the Engman, Matthews Range company of South Bend. The City built the
Natatorium in 1921-1922 and named it after Engman. The building was designed by
Walter W. Schneider, a local architect of note, to model the Culver Natatorium and that
of the Chicago Athletic Club. The Board of Park Commissioners were given $80,000.00
for the construction and contracting of the "Public Bath House and Swimming Pool".
Their president, Mr. Richard Elbel, contracted the pools construction on August 11, 1921
for $55,501.00 to local contractor Kuehn and Jordan and the remaining moneys were
set aside for upkeep and future repairs. The Natatorium was constructed with a top of
the line heating system and innovating plumbing and pumps.
In its first ten years the pool was used for public swimming, swimming lessons for young
and old and safety instructor training. By 1936, only fourteen years after it first opened,
the Natatorium was closed as a result of being declared unsafe. The problems listed in
the declaration were all problems that were found to be conditions inherent in buildings
devoted to natatoriums: the high humidity within the building contrasted with the cold
winter temperatures outside which proceeded to produce condensation on walls,
windows, and the roof causing rotting. To remedy the problems the City hired architect
Ernest W.Young and allocated $25,000.00 for the repair of the structure and the
installation of a new machine designed to dry the air. The repairs took four months to
implement. Upon the reopening of the pool the State ordered that the City must provide
a schedule for use of the Natatorium by African-Americans. Local Civil Rights activist J.
Chester Allen requested that due to the fact that there were over 5,000 citizens of color
living in South Bend that all restrictions should be dropped so all people could use the
pool at any time. Mr. John a Rothrock, representative of the State Board of Tax
Commissioners who were the sponsors of the renovation project, stated that"he hadn't
seen a city as large as South Bend that didn't provide facilities to blacks", however he did
not approve the plan of African Americans using the pool at the same time as the whites.
Eventually a schedule was reached that allowed African Americans to use the facility,
but, not at the same time as whites.
In 1946 the pool was again closed for a few months for reconditioning. The price for a
single swim at this time was $0.30; a five-swim card cost $1.20. The Natatorium was
open noon to 9:oopm and it offered open swimming, swim lessons for all, as well as
private ladies classes and life-saving courses. By the late 1940s the Natatorium offered
an adult only night on Wednesdays for those seeking to relax apart from children. The
building was also used for water ballet, graduation exercises and water exhibitions.
By 1950 the Natatorium was at the peak of its popularity with over 18,179 people visiting
the pool that summer. In 1951 the pool gave lessons in Water Basketball, rented the
facility to clubs and associations and began Swim for Health lessons for the
handicapped. By 1957 the pool had added 22 new swim classes year-round to handle
the huge numbers of patrons and in 1958—to further alleviate the crowding—the pool
was opened for four hours on Sunday afternoons. However, as the 196os approached,
the Natatorium began showing signs of age and use,leading to its closing for additional
renovations on October 23, 196o. At this time new heating, plumbing, and ventilation
systems were installed, as well as new showers and filters for the pool. The City
allocated $37,900.00 through the sale of bonds for these improvements and the pool
reopened two months later.
The Natatorium continued to be open for lessons,water shows, High School swim meets
and general swimming throughout the 1970s despite dwindling use. By July of 1978 the
Natatorium again needed renovations, although the City chose to close the facility
instead of executing those updates.
By the 19gos,the property was in dire need of preservation. Community interest
resulted in an attempt to designate the structure as a Local Landmark 1997, and again in
2003. In August of 2010, the property was purchased by the South Bend Heritage
Foundation,who entered into an agreement to restore and rehabilitate the structure,
leading to the establishment of Indiana University's Civil Rights Heritage Center at the
Natatorium.
Description of Structure:
The structure is a one story public pool building, rectangular in plan and Neo-Classical
in design. The building has a flat roof with a terra-cotta parapet coping and walls with
multi-course brick work with additional terra cotta detailing. The windows are 4"glass
block in brick openings with terra cotta sills and head and the front door is made from
aluminum. The entrance enclosure consists of terra cotta columns at the end with
engaged terra cotta pilasters supporting the entabulature which reads "Public
Natatorium." There are engaged brick pilasters with terra cotta column capitals and
plinth on either side of the entrance doors. The foundation is granite, the steps are
concrete, and a tall chimney made of brick with terra cotta detailing and wrought iron
detailing.
Extensive modifications were made in 2010 resulting in the building's current
configuration. The rear (southern) portions of the natatorium were demolished and
replaced with a contemplative garden and modern restroom facilities and office space.
Location Notes/Legal Description:
PARCEL I: Part of Bank Out Lot numbered Eighty-nine (89) of the Second Plat of Out
Lots of the Town, now City of South Bend, in St. Joseph County, Indiana, platted by the
State of Indiana, described as beginning at the Northwest corner of said Lot Numbered
Eighty-nine (89); thence East 1 chain 82 4/5 links; thence South 144.5 feet to the North
line of an alley; thence West on the north line of said alley 1 chain 82 4/5 links to the
West line of said Lot Numbered Eighty-nine (89); thence North 144.5 to the place of
beginning.
EXCEPTING THEREFROM: the easterly 40'therefrom.
Landmarks Criteria:
1. Historical and cultural significance
The building fulfills this criteria as an excellent example of a movement in public
entertainment and health. In its beginning the pool was built as part of a movement
throughout Indiana and the United States that showed the public interest in swimming
as a diversion from heat and as a place for socializing. As time passed and new courses
were offered the interest changed from purely social to concerns over health and fitness
and water safety. The structure's history also shows the advent of segregation and-
eventually—desegregation.
2. Educational value
The building fulfills this criteria as an excellent example of a Neo-Classical designed
public building. It was rated Significant according to the May 19, 1986 survey card. The
structure is currently rated Outstanding by the Indiana State Historic Architectural and
Archaeological Research Database (SHAARD).
To quote George Garner, Curator of the Civil Rights Heritage Center:
No other building in the city speaks to the history of the African American
experience like the Natatorium. Today, as the IUSouth Bend Civil Rights
Heritage Center, we offer public tours for multiple age groups that shares this
history and engages in discussion about contemporary issues.In addition to
South Bend Community and other K-12 school districts, we regularly welcome
students from Indiana University South Bend, the University ofNotre Dame, St.
Mary's College, and Holy Cross College. We offer regular public events to enrich
and educate such as a monthly film and discussion series, open-microphone
poetry readings, lectures, exhibitions of local art and history, and more. We also
regularly host meetings for various civil rights and social justice organizations,
allowing those who fight today's injustices a place to gather and work towards
full equality.
As all of our activities are funded by Indiana University South Bend, our
educational mission is paramount. Further, we believe that activism works best
when rooted in an understanding of the challenges communities have faced for
generations and the experiences of those who had foughtfor positive changes."
3. Suitability for preservation
The building's alterations in 2010 have significantly changed the composition of the
structure,but care was undertaken to execute this process in a sympathetic and fa ade-
preserving manner. The primary street-facing facade of the structure is intact. The
main swimming chamber to the rear of the lot was demolished and replaced with a
contemplative garden and pool. To quote George Garner, again:
In 2010, the building underwent a significant renovation. The building's facade
remains virtually unchanged, with the interior structure and the back two-
thirds of the original building adapted for 21st century use. While recognizing
that there have already been extensive changes to the original structure, we are
confident that the work of South Bend Heritage Foundation to transform the
space into the IUSouth Bend Civil Rights Heritage Center breathed new life into
a building that had, in the late 199os, been targeted for demolition.Historic
landmark status confirms and adds protections for future generations, ensuring
that the history of this building and the story it tells remains vital."

Landmarks Committee
KAREEMAH FOWLER
Meeting Date: 7/3/18, 1:30 P.M. CITY CLERK,SOUTH BEAD,IN
Agenda: Discuss and provide recommendation on the following properties for consideration as
landmarks:
1. Engman Public Natatorium
2. LaSalle Avenue Bridge
3. Jefferson Boulevard Bridge
4. Twyckenham Drive Bridge
Members Present: Joseph Molnar(Chair), Adam Toering, Greta Fisher, Velvet Canada
Members Absent:None
Others Present: Elicia Feasel (Historic Preservation Administrator)
Below are the minutes from the meeting, in bold are the official recommendations of the
Committee to the Historic Preservation Commission.
The Landmarks Committee met in the Informal Chambers of the South Bend Common Council
on July 3ra, 2018 at 1:30 P.M.
Adam Toering provided the draft staff report for the Engman Public Natatorium. The Committee
discussed how much of the property should be proposed for landmarking. The consensus was
reached that all of Parcel#1 of the property should be considered for landmarking. This consists
of the entire building and the garden behind the building where the pool was once located.
Committeemember Fisher stated the garden should be included because the pool location itself is
as significant as the building in terms of historical memory in the community. This does not
include the parking lot adjacent to the building which is a separate parcel.
Committeemember Greta Fisher made a motion to send the Engman Public Natatorium to
the full Commission with a favorable recommendation for the entirety of Parcel#1.
Committeemember Adam Toering seconded the motion which carried with a vote of four
4) ayes and zero (0) nays.
Elicia Feasel provided and discussed the draft staff reports for the LaSalle Bridge,Jefferson
Bridge, and Twyckenham Bridge. The Committee decided it made sense to discuss the bridges as
one discussion item. Ms. Feasel informed the Committee that the Howard Park Walking Bridge
is not being considered for landmarking at this time.
The process of landmarking bridges is efforts previously made to landmark bridges in St. Joseph
County that are of historical significance. Previously the Michigan Bridge and Angela Bridge
have both been landmarked. The Committee agreed with the decision that the Colfax Bridge is
not suitable for landmarking at this time.
All three bridges discussed have historic and unique architectural designs that would no longer
be considered in the construction of modern bridges. All three bridges have undergone recent
renovations that have been sympathetic to their historical character. Considering that all three
bridges represent a specific time in the City of South Bend and St. Joseph County's history, in
addition to retaining their unique architectural features, it was the opinion of the Committee that
they are acceptable for landmark status.
Committeemember Velvet Canada made a motion to send the LaSalle Avenue Bridge to
the full Commission with a favorable recommendation. Committeemember Greta Fisher
seconded the motion which carried with a vote of four (4)ayes and zero (0) nays.
Committee Chair Joseph Molnar made a motion to send the Jefferson Boulevard Bridge to
the full Commission with a favorable recommendation. Committeemember Adam Toering
seconded the motion which carried with a vote of four(4)ayes and zero (0) nays.
Committeemember Greta Fisher made a motion to send the Twyckenham Drive Bridge to
the full Commission with a favorable recommendation. Committeemember Velvet Canada
seconded the motion which carried with a vote of four(4)ayes and zero (0) nays.
With all business decided, Committee Chair Joseph Molnar adjourned the meeting at 2:15 p.m.

Services to an Annexation Area in German Township (South Bend Chocolate
Annexation Area)
Dear President Scott:
I am attaching for filing the above resolution,which is a companion to Bill No. 26-18.
That bill proposes to voluntarily annex contiguous territory in German Township to the

This 13.2-acre annexation area contains four parcels on the south side of Lincolnway
West(US 20) near Olive Road, west of the St. Joseph Valley Parkway. All public
improvements, if any, will be required to be done at the expense of the developer.
I request that the attached resolution be placed on the August 13, 2018, agenda of the
Common Council meeting at which the companion Bill is given Second Reading. I will
be attending the meeting, as well as the Zoning&Annexation Committee hearing, as the
presenter.

South Bend Chocolate Annexation Area 3
SECTION I. INTRODUCTION
This Fiscal Plan represents the City of South Bend's (hereinafter, "City") policy for the
annexation of property in German Township, St. Joseph County, Indiana (hereinafter,
Annexation Area"), and was developed through the cooperative efforts of the Area Plan
Commission and the following City Departments:
Legal Department
Department of Public Works
South Bend Fire Department
South Bend Police Department
Department of Code Enforcement
Department of Community Investment
Department of Administration & Finance
SECTION II. GENERAL DATA
A. Location
The Annexation Area is located on US 20 (Lincolnway West) near Olive Road, west of the St.
Joseph Valley Parkway. See Map 1.
B. Legal Description
The Annexation Area is part of the South Half of Section 30 and the North Half of Section 31,
Township 38 North, Range 2 East, in German Township, St. Joseph County, Indiana. For a
complete legal description, see Page 15.
C. Contiguity
The Annexation Area is at least 1/8 (12.5%) contiguous to the current City limits:
Contiguous 2,120.93 feet 51.8%
Non-Contiguous 1,972.16 feet 48.2%
Total 4,093.09 feet 100.0%
D. Size of Annexation Area
The Annexation Area is approximately 13.2 acres.
South Bend Chocolate Annexation Area 4
E. Buildings & Land Use
The Annexation Area contains commercial and residential buildings and wooded land.
Commercial, industrial, and agricultural uses are proposed for a development site including
the Annexation Area.
F. Zoning&Subdivisions
The four properties in the Annexation Area are currently zoned "C" Commercial District (one
property) and "M" Manufacturing Industrial District (three properties) in St. Joseph County.
With the annexation petition, the petitioner seeks to rezone the land to "PUD" Planned Unit
Development District in the City. Two parcels fall within the Keller & Hall Minor Subdivision
and one parcel falls within the Cascino Second Minor Subdivision. One parcel is not located
within any subdivision of record.
G. Population
No people currently reside in the Annexation Area. After development, no residents are
proposed to live in the Annexation Area.
H. Tax Rate & Impact
The tax rates used are those of 2017 payable 2018. The total tax rate for unincorporated
German Township is 2.5922 per $100 of taxable real estate. The total tax rate for South
Bend German Township is 5.9453 per $100 of taxable real estate.
Per State law, the tax caps expressed as a percentage of the gross assessed value for
different classifications of property are as follows, regardless of the property's location being
within South Bend or unincorporated St. Joseph County:
Property Type Cap
Homestead Residential 1.0%
Non-Homestead Residential 2.0%
Agricultural 2.0%
Other (Commercial) 3.0%
For at least the four years after the effective date of the annexation, the expected tax rates,
tax levies, expenditure levels, service levels, and annual debt service payments are estimated
to be approximately the same as those in effect at the time of annexation for each of the
political subdivisions to which the proposed annexation applies.
Because of the relatively small size of the Annexation Area and its assessed value relative to
the total size and tax base of the various political subdivisions, this annexation is expected, for
at least four years after the effective date of this annexation, to have a negligible impact on
South Bend Chocolate Annexation Area 5
the finances and tax revenues of South Bend and other political subdivisions to which the
proposed annexation applies, on the political subdivisions in St. Joseph County not part of this
annexation, and on taxpayers not part of this annexation.

J. Municipal Legislative District

K. Hiring Plan
This annexation is not anticipated to result in the elimination of jobs for employees of any
other governmental entities. The German Township Trustee has been notified of this
proposed annexation.
South Bend Chocolate Annexation Area 6
SECTION III. MUNICIPAL SERVICES
A.Public Works
Sewer - The nearest sanitary sewer to the west originates at the existing lift station near US
20 and Poppy Road. The City is currently designing a sewer extension that will run along the
south side of US 20 from the northwest corner of the Annexation Area to the lift station. The
lift station has sufficient capacity to accept flows from the Annexation Area.
Development of the site requires City approval of a drainage plan that meets the City's
requirement to store on site all runoff from developed areas. Connection to the City storm
sewer is not permitted.
Water-The South Bend Water Works currently has a 16" water main that runs on the north
side of US 20 from Olive Road to Pine Road. This water main would provide sufficient capacity
for the Annexation Area. The petitioner would likely need to connect to the water line by
boring under US 20. A 12" water main is located along the west side of Pine Road. The
petitioner may wish to connect to both water mains to provide redundancy to the project site.
Extensions of, or taps into sanitary sewer and water lines shall be governed by state law and
the rules and regulations of the South Bend Water Works and Sewer Utility. The Annexation
Area may be subject to system development charges for both water and sewer services.
Street Lighting - Street lighting is provided along US 20 (Lincolnway West) within the
Annexation Area. Should any additional lighting be necessary, street lighting on wood poles
with overhead wiring can be provided through an ongoing contract with Indiana Michigan
Power. If the developer wishes to construct and dedicate additional street lighting, especially
of a decorative nature or with underground wiring, the City may accept it for maintenance and
operation, supported by property tax revenue.
Waivers of Annexation - No waivers of right to remonstrate against annexation are in effect
forth is area.
Streets - No new public streets are proposed with this annexation. The annexation would add
a portion of US 20 (Lincolnway West) to the city limits, but US 20 will continue to be
maintained by the Indiana Department of Transportation following annexation. If the project
site is accessed at the US 20-Olive Road intersection, INDOT may require the petitioner to
make improvements there and to the adjoining on and off ramps at the US 20-St. Joseph
Valley Parkway (Bypass) interchange. Depending on the location of access to the project site,
a City Curb Cut Application or INDOT permit will be required for any new driveway approaches.
The petitioner would be responsible for installing sidewalks along public streets as the project
develops.

South Bend Chocolate Annexation Area 8
B. Police Department
The Annexation Area would be added to the existing Beat 24. Police patrols and emergency
responses will be part of the services the City will offer to this area. This proposed annexation
would require officers to cover a relatively small additional area on this beat.
At this time, it is not expected that this annexation would cause calls for service to increase
significantly, and it is not anticipated that it will be necessary to increase police patrols beyond
the existing beat patrol. The addition of this Annexation Area will not significantly increase
response time within the beat.
The cost for servicing the proposed area is not expected to impact the existing budget of the
Police Department with any significance. The patrol costs would be assumed by the Police
Department budget. However, this area, as well as all other areas of the City, will continually
be monitored for level of service demands and other criteria that would necessitate additional
resources through budgetary increases or possible shifting of existing resources, such as a
beat restructure.
Police services and response time in this area can be expected to be comparable with that
found in all other areas of the City. Police coverage to this area could begin immediately upon
annexation.
Note: The cost of service for this Annexation Area is based on the number of parcels.
Household information is provided for comparative purposes.

Proposed Number of Parcels in Area: 4
Cost for Annexation Area per year: 3,392 (4 parcels x $848/ parcel)
South Bend Chocolate Annexation Area 9
C. Fire Department& EMS
Fire Response - The South Bend Fire Department provides a fully staffed, full-time fire
department. The Annexation Area will be serviced primarily by Fire Station #11, located at
3505 N. Bendix Drive, approximately 4.3 miles away. Additional Fire Department units would
respond from Fire Station #4 at 220 N. Olive Street, which is approximately 4.6 miles away,
and from Fire Station #6 at 4302 Western Avenue, which is approximately 4.7 miles away.
The South Bend Fire Department does not foresee any unusual fire protection problems
related to this annexation. Response times will be comparable to other areas of the City. No
additional equipment will need to be purchased or personnel hired to service the Annexation
Area. Fire coverage to this area could begin immediately upon annexation. Adequate water
supply will be necessary as development takes place; redundancy by connection to water
mains on both US 20 and Pine Road would be important for a larger scale development.
Emergency Medical Response - The City will provide emergency medical response to the
Annexation Area. This area will be serviced by Medic #4, which is at Fire Station #4, located
at 220 N. Olive Street(approximately 4.6 miles away).
Response times will be comparable to other areas of the City. No additional equipment will
need to be purchased or personnel hired to service the Annexation Area. Emergency medical
services are supported by user fees and would be available upon annexation.
Note: The cost of service for this Annexation Area is based on the number of parcels.
Household information is provided for comparative purposes.
2017 Actual Budget Report for the Department:
Expenditures (including pension cost): $36,856,829
Number of Households in City(2010): @39,760

Cost for Annexation Area per year: 3,072 (4 parcels x $768/ parcel)
South Bend Chocolate Annexation Area 10
D. Code Enforcement
The Annexation Area will be added to Area 8. The Department of Code Enforcement will be
able to provide services to the Annexation Area with comparable response times. The
Department will respond to calls for service upon the effective date of the annexation. Full
and dedicated response will be in place within one year of the effective date of the
annexation.
2017 Actual Budget Report for the Department:
Expenditures: 5,971,063
Number of Parcels in City (2017): @48,000
Cost per Parcel: @$124
Proposed Number of Parcels in Area:4
Cost for Annexation Area per year: 496 (4 parcels x $124/ parcel)
E.Environmental Services
Wastewater Treatment-Wastewater treatment services are supported by user fees and are
paid through the Water Works billing system.
Solid Waste - Larger scale commercial or industrial customers are generally not served by the
Bureau of Solid Waste. However, the Bureau of Solid Waste can provide service to small
commercial customers at $16.22 per month, or the prevailing rate at that time, for a 96-gallon
container with service beginning on the effective date of the annexation.
F. Administrative Services
The City of South Bend provides a wide range of services other than those noted above, such
as the Mayor's Office, the Legal Department, and Venues Parks & Arts.
These services are available upon the effective date of the annexation. Full and dedicated
response for non-capital services will be in place within one year of the effective date of the
annexation. Costs for these services have not been calculated.
The incorporation of the Annexation Area will not affect the provision of other services
currently provided to this property on a countywide basis. The St. Joseph County Health
Department, the St. Joseph County Public Library, the Area Plan Commission, and the St.
Joseph County/South Bend Building Department are among the countywide agencies that will
continue to provide the same type and level of services to the Annexation Area.
Countywide services will continue to be supported by the County and Township taxes that will
remain in effect.
South Bend Chocolate Annexation Area 11
SECTION IV. LAND USE ANALYSIS & DEVELOPMENT CRITERIA
This proposed annexation will add four properties containing commercial and residential
buildings and wooded land to the City of South Bend. The petitioner proposes to develop the
Annexation Area and adjoining parcels for commercial, industrial, and agricultural uses. The
Annexation Area is presently zoned "C" Commercial District and "M" Manufacturing Industrial
District in unincorporated St. Joseph County. A light industrial use zoned "M" Manufacturing
Industrial District and residential uses zoned "R" Single Family District, all in unincorporated
St. Joseph County, are located to the north across US 20. To the east and to the south are
agricultural and wooded parcels zoned "LI" Light Industrial District in the City. To the west are
mostly residential uses zoned "M" Manufacturing Industrial District and "R" Single Family
District in unincorporated St. Joseph County.
The Annexation Area is located just west of the Lincolnway West interchange with the St.
Joseph Valley Parkway. With its proximity to the St. Joseph Valley Parkway and the Indiana
Toll Road, the land may be attractive for light industrial, commercial, and other uses that
require high levels of accessibility.
The petitioner proposes the South Bend Chocolate Company project, a planned mixed-use
development of commercial, industrial, and agricultural uses on a large site that includes the
Annexation Area. The conceptual land use plan indicates that the Annexation Area itself may
include commercial and industrial uses such as a factory, museum, restaurant, retail, and gas
station.
As part of its site planning, the petitioner should preserve, to the extent possible, mature trees
and other natural features of the Annexation Area, especially along the project's perimeter.
Any improvements or future changes must meet the City's applicable building, zoning, and
subdivision ordinances.
South Bend Chocolate Annexation Area 12
SECTION V. FISCAL IMPACT
1) Essential city services can be made available to the residents (and territory) of the
Annexation Area in a timely and comparable fashion per the requirements of State law and
this fiscal plan.
2) The City is financially able to support city services to the territory sought to be annexed.
3) Required improvements made by the petitioner and/or owner of the parcel(s) must be
made in accordance with the standards of the City of South Bend.
4) Required improvements made by the City, if any, will be completed within the time frames
provided by State law and this fiscal plan.
5) All figures are estimates. Final cost of capital expenditures, if any, will not be determined
until bids are publicly solicited, contracts are awarded, and projects are closed out.
6) Property tax revenue and land assessment estimates are based on a combination of 2017
payable 2018 tax information, assessments of comparable developments, estimates of units
built, estimates of unit values and land assessments, and tax abatements or adjustments, if
any. Tax rates are subject to change every year, and property tax revenues may be subject to
tax caps.
7) Department expenditures and revenues are derived from the City of South Bend Budget.
8) The estimated costs to provide services, noted in Section III, Municipal Services, is a City-
wide average based on a particular budget year. In the case of the proposed development in
the Annexation Area, some of these services may not be required or possibly requested for
many years. Hence, the cost of providing services over the first five years should be evaluated
with this in mind.

UNITED STATES PRESIDENT DONALD TRUMP AND THE INDIANA
CONGRESSIONAL/SENATORIAL DELEGATION WHO REPRESENT OUR AREA TO
WORK WITH HONEYWELL TO STOP OFFSHORING JOBS AND ABANDONING
COMMITMENTS MADE TO RETIREES
Whereas, The Honorable United States President Donald Trump can direct
Federal contractors to stop offshoring jobs and to fulfill their commitments to
retirees; and
Whereas, our United States Congressional/Senatorial Delegation who
represent our area in Indiana are: The Honorable United States Congresswoman
Jackie R. Walorski (IN - 2); The Honorable United States Senator Joseph S.
Donnelly, Sr. (IN); and The Honorable United States Senator Todd C. Young
IN); and
Whereas, Honeywell — a defense contractor that has received $3.4 billion in
Federal contracts through the Trump Administration— is outsourcing work from
its South Bend plant to Turkey, resulting in local workers being put out on the
streets; and
Whereas, Honeywell has abandoned its long-standing commitment to
provide health care coverage to 4,700 retirees from this facility; and
Whereas, all these assaults on our community come after Honeywell forced
its workforce out on the streets in a 10-month lockout in 2016-17; and
Whereas, this happens while Honeywell collected $1.7 billion in 2017
profit; and
Whereas, Honeywell took advantage of the new tax laws to bring back $7
billion in offshore cash into the United States; and
Whereas, Honeywell, while eliminating promised health care coverage to its
retirees, spent nearly $950 million in the first quarter of 2018 for stock buybacks
to boost shareholder profit instead of making good on its commitment to its
retirees' health care.
Now, therefore, be it resolved, by the Common Council of the City of South
Bend, Indiana, as follows:
Section I. The South Bend Common Council respectfully requests that
Representative Walorski, Senator Donnelly and Senator Young call on President
Trump to exercise his power and influence to direct Federal contractor Honeywell
to: (1) Stop the offshoring of South Bend area jobs; 2) fulfill to its obligation to its
employees, past and current, particularly in regard to health care benefits; and (3)
begin respecting all the commitments it made to communities like ours.
Section II. This resolution shall be enacted upon the passage of the South Bend
Common Council and signed by the Mayor of South Bend, Indiana
Tim Scott, Council President

MEMORANDUM
DATE: July 30, 2018
TO: Area Board of Zoning Appeals
FROM: Angela M. Smith, Deputy Director
SUBJECT: August 8, 2018 Area Board of Zoning Appeals Hearing
Special Exception/Special Use
A special exception use/special use may only be granted upon making a written determination and
adopting appropriate Findings of Fact, based upon the evidence presented at a public hearing, that:
1)The proposed use will not be injurious to the public health, safety, comfort, community moral
standards, convenience or general welfare;
2) The proposed use will not injure or adversely affect the use of the adjacent area or property values
therein;
3) The proposed use will be consistent with the character of the district in which it is located and the
land uses authorized therein;
4) The proposed use is compatible with the recommendations of the Comprehensive Plan
7. Petition of City of South Bend,Department of Redevelopment
Based on information available prior to the public hearing, the staff recommends the Special Exception
Use be sent to the Common Council with a favorable recommendation.
1) The proposed use will not be injurious to the public health, .safety, comfort, community moral
standards, convenience or general welfare.
The proposed drive-through will not be injurious to the public health, safety, or general welfare of
the community.
2) The proposed use will not injure or adversely affect the use of the adjacent area or property values
therein.
The proposed use is located within the dense Central Business District, and is thus compatible with
other uses in the area. Unlike a traditional, suburban drive-thru facility, the proposed facility is part of
a 6-story building, consistent with neighboring downtown structures. Furthermore, the proposed
development is expected to increase neighboring property values because the subject property is
currently only a parking lot and vacant land.
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 drive-thru is an appropriate use within the Central Business District zone because it will
accommodate all visitors to the area, including automobile users,pedestrians,cyclists,and mass transit
users.

4) The proposed use is compatible with the recommendations of the Comprehensive Plan.
Objective LU 3.1 of the City of South Bend Comprehensive Plan states that the City should
provide incentives to build on underutilized and vacant lots to increase the density of the CBD."The
proposed project will accomplish this objective,and the drive-thru function will allow for more density
with less space devoted to parking. Furthermore, the proposed project accomplishes many of the
sub-goals of the South Bend Central Development Area Development Plan. Specifically pertaining to
the drive-thru request, sub-goal #10 states that the City needs "to create an overall environmental
quality that recognizes the pervasive use and influence of the automobile on the Area but at the same
time provides pedestrians, cyclists and mass transit users with a safe, accessible, and attractive
circulation system." A drive-thru accommodates automobile users, while the site design, site location,
and bicycle facilities accommodate pedestrians,cyclists and mass transit users,Additionally,the South
Bend Economic Development Office has indicated strong support for the proposed project.
