INDIANA 46601-1830 CITY OF SOUTH BEND PETE BUTTIGIEG, MAYOR BOARD OF PUBLIC WORKS July 12, 2016 Mr. Michael Hamilton 1117 E Bowman, Apt. 2 South Bend, IN 46601 PHONE 574/235-9251 FAX 574/235-9171 RE: Request for Traffic Control Device — Handicapped Accessible Parking Space Sign Dear Mr. Hamilton: The Board of Public Works, at its meeting held on July 12, 2016, denied your request for the installation of a handicapped accessible parking space sign at 1117 East Bowman, as it does not meet the requirements. The Ordinance for handicapped parking space sign is written for 1) a handicapped vehicle associated with a driver who has medical proof of handicap recognized by the Bureau of Motor Vehicles and who resides at a residence where the space is being reserved and 2) that does not have a driveway that offers ease of handicapped access. After review of your application and the area in front of your home, it was determined that there is a paved driveway and sidewalk to a handicapped ramp at the rear of the building that will provide better access. If you have any further questions regarding this matter, please contact Engineering, at (574) 235-9251. Sincerely, Linda M. Martin, Clerk c: Ed Gleckler, Traffic & Lighting GARY A. G1LOT DAVID P.
