CITY OF SOUTH BEND 1 OFFICE OF THE CLERK <br /> time going through this process, so, once we got together with Public Works and the Streets <br /> Department, we were able to figure out and answer their questions. <br /> Councilmember Tim Scott asked, Was this an outcome of the bus tours we had? <br /> Mr. Perri replied, Yes, it was definitely brought up as part of that. We had this in the works and <br /> that really advanced this project. It moved it up higher on the list. <br /> Committeemember Broden asked, So the dead-end hill, where is that? <br /> Mr. Pen-i replied, Sampson Street is actually on a decline. It is a little steep so actually, by doing <br /> this,it will make a safer park quite frankly. I don't know how it will be designed at the end but the <br /> only guy who uses this will now have his own private driveway of sorts. <br /> Committee Chair Voorde asked, Who owns that other green patch(referencing a picture in a slide <br /> of the presentation) up there? <br /> Mr. Perri replied, That is commercial property and I don't know the owner off the top of my head. <br /> Committeemember Broden then asked, And what about parking for this? <br /> Mr. Perri replied, I'm not sure where they park. It is a neighborhood park. I don't think people <br /> were parking on Sampson. I've seen parking on Randolph. <br /> Committeemember Broden stated, For the record, I'm all for the retention pond being converted <br /> to park space. <br /> Councilmember White asked, Is that the Monster House there? I don't know if someone is living <br /> there but there were some concerns brought up about that. <br /> Mr. Pen-i replied, Yeah I think we should approach the resident to see what we can do. <br /> Committee Chair Voorde then opened the floor to members of the public wishing to speak in favor <br /> of or in opposition to the legislation. There were none. He then turned the floor back to the 1 <br /> Committee for further comment or main motion. <br /> Committeemember Ferlic made a motion to send Bill No. 58-18 to the full Council with a favorable <br /> recommendation. Committeemember Jo M. Broden seconded this motion which carried by a voice <br /> vote of four(4) ayes. <br /> With no further business, Committee Chair Voorde adjourned the Public Works and Property <br /> Vacation Committee meeting at 4:41 p.m. <br /> Respectfull Submitte , <br /> trA-1(— --)L <br /> John Voorde, Committee Chair <br /> EXCELLENCE ACCOUNTABILITY INNOVATION .
