A lot of the residents were concerned that their property values would be decreased due to poor access to their property. So we have changed our plan to omit the cul-de-sac and keep Old Cleveland Road open a little further east and adding a stub road which would line up with Foundation Drive in the South Bend Redevelopment Authority Special Meeting -September 30, 1993 3.
