The Three main reasons we are looking to expand the fence on the property is: 1. Security, we have seen a drastic increase of vandalism and crime in the front lot and although we try to bring inside as many cars as possible we need the additional secure parking. 2. Snow Removal, We spend a lot of time trying to keep the lot clear of snow in the winter and being able to push snow from the back lot South would be so much easier and cleaner. 3. Picnic Brake Area, we are wanting to set up a picnic table, chairs, and grill in the grass area for our employees and a place for my dog to run that is secure and safe. A map MUST be provided highlighting the area you would like to vacate with this application. OFFICE USE ONLY: Board Recommendation: CITY OF SOUTH BEND, INDIANA BOARD OF PUBLIC WORKS ta'a Elizabeth A.
