<br /> WHEREAS, there has been submitted to the Common Council of the City of
<br />South Bend, Indiana, an Ordinance and a petition by the sole (100%) property owner

<br />current City limits, i.e., approximately 30% contiguous, generally located on the south
<br />side of Kern Road, approximately 200 feet east of US 31 South. It is anticipated that the
<br />annexation area will be developed for an automotive sales and service building, and it is
<br />proposed for rezoning within the City as “CB” (Community Business) upon
<br />incorporation into the City limits and Common Council approval. Such commercial use
<br />will require a basic level of municipal public services of a non-capital improvement

<br />flushing, snow removal, and sewage collection, as well as services of a capital
<br />improvement nature, including street and road construction, street lighting, a sanitary
