REPORTS
Council Member Serge gave the following Public Works Committee report:
Re:, Bill No. 38 -79 Scrap and Junk Dealers Ordinance
On March 26, 1979, Bill No. 38 -79, commonly known as a Bill Amending the Scrap and Junk
Dealers Ordinance was given a first reading.
On April 9, 1979, second reading and public hearing were held on the Bill. The Council then
continued the Public Hearing and referred the Bill to the Public Works Committee for review
and recommendation.
The Public Works Committee met with concerned citizens and representatives of scrap and junk
yard operations on May 23, July 27, and August 6. Several legal memorandums have been prepared
addressing proposed changes, and regulations existing in Fort Wayne, Indianapolis and several
other cities.
The Public Works Committee believes that all regulations in this area must be fair and reason-
able. The Committee further believes that regulations should balance the contributions that re-
cycling operations such as junk and scrap yards make to the community in light of the environ-
mental and aesthetic concerns of the public.
The Public Works Committee therefore respectfully recommends that after due consideration of
written and verbal material, that the attached amendments to Bill No. 38 -79 be favorably ac-
cepted by the Common Council.

Council Member Adams made a motion to resolve into the Committee of the Whole, seconded by Council,

line items for motor fuel. He indicated that he had anticipated that the total cost of motor

BILL NO. 38 -79 A BILL AMENDING CHAPTER 7, ARTICLE 5, SECTION 7 -76 AND 7 -79 OF THE
MUNICIPAL CODE OF THE CITY OF SOUTH BEND, INDIANA, COMMONLY KNOWN
AS THE SCRAP AND JUNK DEALERS ORDINANCE.
This being the time heretofore set for public hearing on the above bill, proponents and opponent
were given an opportunity to be heard. Kathy Cekanski - Farrand, Council Attorney, made the pre-
sentation for the bill. She indicated that the Public Works Committee had amended the original
bill from the title down. She then read the amended bill in its entirety. Council President
Parent made a motion to accept the amendments as read by Mrs. Cekanski - Farrand, seconded by

to Sections 7 -78, 7 -70 and 7 -81. In Section 7 -78, after Board of Public Works add "and the
Common Council, resolutions approving the issuance of a license 11 ; in Section 7 -80 add a new

tion recommending renewal of the license. Such resolution shall be submitted to the Common
Council for its consideration. The declaration of the Board shall be deemed conclusive unless
the Common Council by resolution shall disapprove the Board's resolution at its next regularly
scheduled meeting." Council President Parent made a motion to amend the bill, seconded by
Council Member Serge. The motion carried. Mr. James Masters, Assistant City Attorney, indicate
that the original bill required solid fencing surrounding the entire junk yard. He indicated
that the Council should enact an ordinance that would be applicable to the yards operating in
the City. He said that the requirement for new fencing should be specified in the bill. Kathy
Cekanski - Farrand indicated that this proposed bill would not grandfather the present operators
from the fencing requirement. Mr. George Divjak, President of the Rum Village Neighborhood
Association, thanked the entire Council, Mr. Masters and Kathy Cekanski - Farrand for considering
them and inviting them to have input into this ordinance. He said, however, they would like
higher fences and fences along the-railroad tracks. Mrs. Hildy Zemlyak, 1903 Franklin, indicate
that she appreciated the fact that the Council wanted to work with the neighborhood. She indica
that the yards at 307 W. Calvert and in the 300 block of Indiana Avenue are in deplorable condi-
tion, and the neighborhood is concerned. She indicated that the railroad sidings should be
blocked off so the debris did not show. Mr. Harold Brueseke, attorney, indicated that this bill
had input from everyone involved. He indicated that the Public Works Committee bill should be
amended in Section I, (3) Buffer Strips to read property lines instead of lot lines. He in-
dicated it was unfair that Council approval would be required to obtain a scrap license. He
said he thought that amendment should be given much more consideration. He said there was a
risk that the issuance of these licenses could become highly political. Mrs. Helen Madaras,
2021 S. Franklin, indicated that fencing could be built around the railroad tracks on Calvert
because Conrail does not enter there. She said people unload their junk at night and if there
was a fence they could not get into the area. Mr. Arthur Garden, 1820 S. William, asked the
Council to give the neighborhood all the.help they possible can. Mr. George Divjak, indicated
that the Council was trying to enforce the licensing because of the condition of a few yards.
He showed pictures of the yards. Council Member Horvath indicated he was glad that the neighbor
hood, business people and the Council could come up with an ordinance. He said he would suggest
that a copy of this bill be sent to each junk dealer by registered mail. He asked that some one
from the Administration send a registered letter to each junk dealer with a copy of the bill,
and an explanation. He indicated that the Council has passed a lot of ordinances, but they are
never enforced, and that was why Council Member Kopczynski's amendment was put into the bill.
Council President Parent indicated that this bill was a major effort to establish some control
over the junk yards. He said because of some operations the Council has to establish a control.
He asked Kathy Cekanski - Farrand if she had prepared the amendment he requested. She indicated
that Section I, (2) of the Public Works bill should be amended in Type B Fencing by adding
"Provided that any Type B fencing which shall be erected as required by this Section shall be
a minimum of eight (3) feet in height." Council President Parent made a motion amend the bill,
seconded by Council Member Kopczynski. The motion carried. She indicated that Section I, (3)
Buffer Strips, should be amended by changing lot lines to property lines in two places in the
paragraph. Council Member Dombrowski made a motion to amend the bill, seconded by Council Membe
Adams. The motion carried. Council Member Dombrowski asked that a letter be sent to Mr. Master
and the City Engineer asking them to check and see if the railroad tracks on Calvert could be
torn out. He said that Fabricated Steel was building a large building and some of the tracks
have been removed. Council Member Miller made a motion to recommend this bill to the Council
favorable, as amended, seconded by Council Member Serge. The motion carried.
There being no further business to come before the Committee of the Whole, Council President
