The March 22, 1999 meeting of the Zoning and Annexation Committee was called to order
by Council Member Charlotte Pfeifer, Vice Chairperson at 4:10 p.m. in the Council
informal meeting room.

Kelly,and Coleman;Ms. Muhammand,Terry Bland, James Voll,Bob Hunt,Lew Powell,
John Broden, Jean Troutman-Poole, Ken Fedder, Eugenia Schwartz, Ed Talley, and

Council Member Pfeifer noted that the first item on the agenda was Substitute Bill No. 104-
98 which would amend Article 6.5 of Chapter 21 of the South Bend Municipal Code to
provided for interim protection of proposed local historic landmarks prior to final landmark
designation and would create subparagraph designations in §21-117.2 (d).
Mr. Ed Talley, Director of the Historic Preservation Commission made the presentation.
He provided a handout to the Committee which summarized the procedure which would be
utilized in providing notice to owners (copy attached). He noted that the procedure is
acceptable to HPC and Code Enforcement.
Mr. James Voll of the Area Plan staff noted that the Area Plan Commission sends the
proposed Bill to Council without recommendation. He further noted that the Commission
recommended that the HPC and Code work out their differences which apparently has been
done in the substitute Bill..
Following discussion, Council Member Kelly made a motion, seconded by Council
Member Varner that substitute Bill No. 104-98 be recommended favorable. The motion
passed.
Council Member Pfeifer recommended that the booklets containing the listing of historic
landmarks be made available at the public library.Mr. Talley agreed to the recommendation
and further noted that he would circulate a memo to city and county officials for additional
sites where it should be made available in addition to his office, the Engineering
Department and the Building Department.
There being no further business to come before the Committee,the meeting was adjourned
at 3:18 p.m.
