I enclose with this letter a Petition to vacate two alleys in the City of South Bend together
with a Proposed Ordinance, the filing fee and the Radius Map which was prepared by the City
Engineer's office.
This Petition is filed in behalf of our client, Madison Center, Inc. and requests that the
two 14 foot wide North-South alleys located in the center of the property which was formerly
owned by Rose Fuel Company be vacated. The reason for this requested vacation is to enable
Madison Center to build new patient treatment and office buildings on the former Rose Fuel
property. The alleys which are petitioned to be vacated interfere with the construction of these
buildings which will be constructed on the land where the alleys presently exist. Neither of these
alleys is presently in use and neither of them has been used for a number of years. They have
both been contained within the property used by Rose Fuel for its business. The description of
the alleys which we petition to vacate is shown on the attached Radius Map. Madison Center,
Inc. owns all the property on both sides of both alleys which we request be vacated.
If you have questions concerning this Petition or the Ordinance, please advise me or my
Associate, Richard Deahl of our firm.
Thank you very much for considering this Petition.
Sincerely yours,
BARNES & THORNBURG LLP

RE: Alley Vacations
Dear Members of the Council:
PHONE 574/ 235-9251
FAx 574/235-9171
TDD 574/ 235-5567
In accordance with Municipal Code Section 18-53.8, a favorable recommendation is being
submitted to the Common Council concerning the following alley vacations:
First N/S Alley East of Niles from Madison; First N/S Alley East of Niles from Madison to Cedar
The Division of Engineering, Area Plan Commission, Community & Economic Development, Fire
Department, Solid Waste, Police Department and the City Attorney's office submitted favorable
recommendations. Area Plan stated that the petitioner must own all the properties contiguous to these rights-
of-way. It also appears that this will also create dead-end alleys at the north and south points. Engineering
stated that Madison Center owns the properties on both sides of the alley. South of Madison, other property
owners may require access to their rear yards. Also a turning capability needs to be established for the "L"
shaped alley being created at the south end by this vacation. In addition, if these alleys are vacated, they are
done so subject to any utility easements that are necessary.
The Board of Public Works submits to you an favorable recommendation concerning this vacation,
subject to any utility easements that may be necessary.

RE: Right-of--way Vacations -Generally described as the first North/South
alley East of Niles Avenue from Madison Street running South approximately
198'; the first North/South alley East of Niles Avenue from Madison Street to
Cedar Street; and the first North/South alley East of Niles Avenue from Cedar
Street running North approximately 198'.
Dear Board Members:
The staff has reviewed this petition relative to IC 36-7-3-13. It is the staff's opinion that:
(1) The vacation 1t~ould not hinder the growth or orderly development of the unit or
neighborhood in which it is located or to which it is contiguous.
(2) The vacation tia~ould make access to the lands of the aggrieved person by means of public
way difficult or inconvenient.
(3) The vacation tia~ould not hinder the public's access to a church, school, or other public
building or place.
(4) The vacation tit~ozrld hinder the use of a public way by the neighborhood in which it is
located or to which it is contiguous.
The Staff recommends that these right-of--ways not be vacated until the petitioner owns all the properties
contiguous to these right-of--ways. It appears that this will also create dead-end alleys at the north and
south points.
Sincerely,
Andrew Videkovich
