CITY PLANNING COMMISSION
-QW12
July 9, 1956
Honorable Common Council
City of South Bend
South Bend, Indiana
Gentlemen:
Attached petition of C. A. More to zone property located
at 2112 Mishawaka Avenue from IIBII Residential to "C"
Commercial use was legally advertised under date of
25 June, 1956, and public hearing held by your Planning
Commission on 5 July, 1956. Relative to the petition
the Commission found that there existed an adequate amount
of commercially zoned frontage on either side of 1,1ishawaka
Avenue from subject property east to Thirty Second Street,
a distance of ten blocks. The Commission further found
that a considerable amount of the afore mentioned front-
age was not used commercially, thereby clearly demonstrat-
ing the lack of need, on a neighborhood or community
basis, for additional commercial frontage. The Commission
further found that in general the same condition as men-
tioned above exists three blocks to the west of subject
property wherein commercial frontage extends for approx-
imately nine blocks. The Comussion found that subject
property was now used residentially and that petitioners
desire to continue said use and, in addition, to erect a
building on subject property which would be used commer-
cially, which action would result in two principal uses
on the same lot. This would be in conflict with the theory
and intent of the zoning ordinance. The Commission fur-
ther found that the granting of the ordinance zoning
property to commercial would be an unwarranted, unneces-
sary, and unneeded intrusion into a residential area.
It was therefore duly moved, seconded, and unanimously
carried that the petition be recommended unfavorably.
