RE: Alley Vacation — North/South Alley from West Marion Street to West Madison Street,
East of Lafayette Blvd. and West of Main St. (Preliminary Review)
Dear Mr, Ranch:.
The Board of Public Works, at its September 11, 2018, meeting, reviewed comments by the
Engineering Division, Area Plan Commission, Community Investment, Fire Department and Street
Department, The following comments and recommendations were submitted:
Engineering and Community Investment stated, per IC 36-7-3-13, the vacation would hinder the
growth or orderly development of the unit or neighborhood in which it is located or to which it is
contigUOLIS. The vacation would hinder the public's access to a church, school or other public
building or place. The vacation would hinder the use of a public right of way by the neighborhood
in which it is located or to, which it is contiguous.
Therefore, the Board of Public Works submitted an unfavorable recommendation for the vacation
of this alley.
Please contact Donna Hanson at (574) 235-9254 prior to picking up your radius map. You
will need a radius map showing properties within 150' of the proposed vacation for your petition to
the Common Council. Once you pick up the radius map,, proceed to the City Clerk's office for your
alley vacation packet.
Sincerely,
Linda M. Martin, Clerk

RE: Alley Vacation — Alley Vacation — First North/South Alley lying East of Lafayette Boulevard
and West of Main Street, bounded on the North by the South right-of-way of West Marion Street,
bounded on the South by the North right-of-way of Madison Street, running 408 feet -I-/- in length,
all in South Bend, Indiana;
Dear Board Members:
On behalf of our clients we are requesting approval of the vacation of a portion of the First North/South
Alley lying East of Lafayette Boulevard and West of Main Street, bounded on the North by the South right-
of-way of West Marion Street, bounded on the South by the North right-of-way of Madison Street, running
408 feet +/- in length, all in South Bend, Indiana.
The reason for this request is to allow for the properties located on either side of the proposed alley to
be enlarged and to close a public right-of-way which allows for vehicles using the alley to come within a
few feet of the two existing adjacent homes and allows vehicles to cross through an existing parking lot.
The Petitioners desire to increase the safety in the use of their properties through the proposed vacation.
Closure of this existing North -South alley will not be detrimental to any surrounding property as the
petitioners own all adjacent real estate on either side of the proposed vacated alley.
If you have any questions concerning this matter, please feel free to give me a call at 574-234-4003.
Sincerely,
I'f �6 ACC. J. D
