BEFORE THE BOARD OF PUBLIC -WORKS

Catalpa Avenue.under Condemnation REMONSTRANCE
Resolution Number 65.
Louis E. Kovash and Joseph Kish Jr. remonstrate against the
sward of damages and the assessment of benefits in the above entitled proceedings
and for their ground of remonstrance say:
FIRST: That on September 5th. 1922s they executed a certain
contract for the sale of the West Thirty-fourN)j feet of the Eas:L one hundred
and twos (102) feet of lot numbered Six (6) and Eleven (11) in Kerr ble's Addition
to the Town of Mylery now a part of the City of South Bend, and that on said day
and by virtue of said land contract, the West thirty-four (34) feet of said East
one hundred and tw#o (102) feet became and was detached and severed from the
remainder of said One hundred and two (102) feet of said lots; that said purchases
Fabian Kalos$ar and Rosa Kalosaar, were under and by virtue of said contract of
purchase in actual possession of said West Thirty-four ( 4) feet from and after
said September 5th.1 1922; that the East Sixty-eight (6m. 8� feet of said One hundred
and two (102) feet of said lot Six and eleven (11) are or will be under this
condemnation proceeding, destroyed for residential purposes; that the frontage
of said Sixty-eight (68) feetremaining on Calvert Street after said condemnation
is made effectual will be fourteen (14) feet; that the effeet.of such condemnation
will be to give these remonstrance a long frontage for improvement assessments
without any adequate land for improvements and developement; that the cost of
curb_, walk, grade, sewer and pavement will far exceed the value of the remainder
of said Sixty-eight (68) feet even after such improvements are put in.
SECOND: That the award of damages as to the,land owned by these
Parties in lots Numbered Six (6) and Eleven (11) in said Addition is too small;
that the assessment of benefits as to the land owned by these remonstrants in lots
Numbered Six (6) and Eleven (11) is toes large.
