REGULAR MEETING JUNE 11, 2001 Finally, the Area Plan Commission, at its Public Hearing held on May 15, 2001, sent this petition to the Council with a favorable recommendation subject to a final site development plan.: The petition property is bordered by `B" Residential zoning to the south and west, the adjacent use to the west is a medical office and to the south is a parking lot and vacant land. The existing structure has previously been used as a medical office. Therefore, the "PHC" Professional/Health Care zoning for this property is not out of character for this area. Mr. Bernard Feeney, Registered Land Survey, 715 South Michigan Street, South Bend, Indiana, made the presentation for this bill. Mr. Feeney advised that he was present on behalf of the Weinlin Partnership, the owners of the petitioned property. He noted that this is a brick one (1) story building similar to the offices occupied by Doctors Offerle and Morton immediately next door and to the west of this property. Currently there is an optometric lab located and operating in the basement of the Offerle/Morton building to the west. This lab is operating under the name of the Laboratory Corporation of America and employees approximately five (5) individuals at the current time. Laboratory Corporation of America will be moving into the petitioned building. It contains twelve hundred fifty (1,250) square feet on the first floor with an additional twelve hundred fifty (1,250) square feet of finished basement. Parking appears to be adequate for all of the employees. This being the time heretofore set for the Public Hearing on the above bill, proponents and opponents were given an opportunity to be heard. There being no one present wishing to speak to the Council either in favor of or in opposition to this bill, Councilmember Coleman made a motion for favorable recommendation to full Council concerning this bill as substituted. Councilmember Kelly seconded the motion which carried by a voice vote of nine (9) ayes.
