REGULAR MEETINGFEBRUARY 28, 2005 <br />constructed, no homes will be built other than the maximum possibility of two model <br />homes until such time as final plat approval has been granted. <br />Councilmember Dieter stated that he counted six permits that are being waited for <br />approval from various agencies. <br />Mr. Gilot stated that Mr. Carl Littrell, City Engineer, licensed professional engineer <br />reviewed the drainage calculations for this subdivision, with the various parcel areas, and <br />percent impervious and typical design storm sewers, and he checked off on that back on <br />October of 2004. There are detailed construction plans and specifications for the storm <br />sewer and drainage but the conceptual calculations for how to manage the drainage on the <br />site have already been reviewed and approved by the City. <br />Mr. Randy Kiefer, 20340 Opal Street, South Bend, Indiana, advised that he has not seen <br />anything from the St. Joseph County Drainage Board being involved in any of this? All <br />he has heard tonight is the impact of the property in question, which is in the City limits <br />now. His property is still in Centre Township, St. Joseph County and he has had his <br />basement flooded before. There still seem to be a discrepancy on City sewer questions. <br />His stated that his property is located at the very end of the City sewage tie in, the <br />neighbors who surround him are still on their own sewer tract, if they are flooded again <br />he questioned what kind of an impact is that going to have environmentally? <br />Mr. Feeney stated that as part of the platting process they are required to apply to the St. <br />Joseph County Drainage Board and the urban drain in a requisite. The application for the <br />urban drain status is a requisite of the plat, now this requires the County Drainage Board <br />to review the subdivision and then either accept or reject it as an urban drain. It was Mr. <br />Feeney’s recollection that the County Drainage Board has reviewed this and has accepted <br />the subdivision, Hidden Creek as an urban drain to be managed and administered by the <br />St. Joseph County Drainage Board, in a similar fashion to the Jewel Park subdivision, <br />immediately to the south of the subdivision in question. <br />Councilmember Varner stated that the conflict that seems to be the case here is that the <br />permitting process and the approval process are two entirely different things. The <br />permitting process is something that is handled by IDEM and the drainage board and that <br />is apparently being satisfied. Just as long as the builder understands that he at his own <br />risk, if he chooses to proceed without the appropriate approvals, is subject to the <br />responsibility. From what is written in the newspapers that is a pretty serious risk to <br />proceed without appropriate approvals. The Council’s responsibility is to grant tax <br />abatement to homeowners who chose to purchase in this area. <br />Councilmember Varner made a motion to adopt this Resolution. Councilmember <br />Puzzello seconded the motion which carried and the Resolution was adopted by a roll call <br />vote of nine (9) ayes. <br />RESOLUTION NO. 3426-05 A RESOLUTION OF THE COMMON COUNCIL <br /> OF THE CITY OF SOUTH BEND, INDIANA, <br /> PUBLICLY SUPPORTING THE MANY <br /> EFFORTS OF THE INDIANA COALITION TO <br /> REDUCE UNDERAGE DRINKING (ICRUD) & <br /> THE INDIANA PREVENTION RESOURCE <br /> CENTER (IPRC) AND FORMALLY CALLING <br /> UPON THE INDIANA STATE LEGISLATURE <br /> TO OPPOSE THE EXPANSION OF ALCOHOL <br /> OUTLETS BY PASSING APPROPRIATE STATE <br /> LEGISLATION <br />WHEREAS, the Common Council of the City of South Bend, Indiana, recognizes that the <br />Indiana Coalition to Reduce Underage Drinking (ICRUD) is one (1) of twelve (12) <br />coalitions which are part of a national project of the American Medical Association <br />which has determined that alcohol is the leading drug problem among our nation’s youth; <br />and <br />20 <br /> <br />
