Leszczynski Director, Public Works (219) 284-9251 Members of the South Bend Common Council 4th Floor, County-City Building South Bend, Indiana 46601 Re: Ordinance Amending Chapter 21 of the Municipal Code Dear Councilmen: The attached ordinance requests an amendment to Chapter 21 of the South Bend Municipal Code. This section is entitled Zoning and concerns off-street parking requirements for certain uses located within the South Bend Central Business District and fringe. The ordinance updates the number of parking spaces required for uses such as theaters , auditoriums , gymnasiums , stadiums , arenas , convention halls and places of assembly in the downtown area. To enhance development downtown, steps were taken over the past several years to provide adequate parking for anticipated growth. This has occurred through the construction of several public and private parking structures located in the downtown area. The multi-leveled structures allow more space to be made available for development . Century Center with its theaters and convention facilities and the modernized Morris Civic Auditorium have been able to take advantage of the abundance of parking. To continue to grow and yet not require duplication of already existing parking spaces we are in an envious position of being able to update current standards . The ordinance as proposed would set a standard of one ( 1) off-street parking space per fifteen ( 15) seats , thus allowing the dense development needed in the downtown and its fringe areas . If you have any questions please contact me at your convenience . Sincerely, John E. Leszc ynski Director, Public Works cc : Jon Hunt
