AN ORDINANCE OF THE COMMON COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF SOUTH BEND,
INDIANA, AMENDING CHAPTER 6, ARTICLE 8 OF THE SOUTH BEND MUNICIPAL CODE
BY THE ADDITION OF NEW SECTION 6 -37.2 ADDRESSING ACCOUNTABILITY OF
GOVERNMENT ACTIONS ON BUILDINGS DECLARED VACANT OR ABANDONED
STATEMENT OF PURPOSE AND INTENT
On November 27, 2007, the South Bend Common Council passed Ordinance No. 9810 -37
which established a registration and maintenance program of vacant and abandoned buildings in the
City of South Bend, Indiana. It was noted that the City had earlier announced on May 29, 2007, a
3 -year "$6.825 million strategy to reduce the City's vacant houses by more than one -fifth, with the
primary focus aimed at reducing abandoned houses by 72 % ". That program had a "comprehensive
strategy" where 400 derelict houses were to be demolished in targeted neighborhoods. The program
was developed on a Department of Code Enforcement survey conducted in May 2006 where 621
houses were identified as being both vacant and abandoned, which then represented 28% of all
vacant houses in the City. It also was reported by the South Bend Police Department at that time
that arsons and removing scrap metal had increased in the vacant houses. An "Urban
Homsesteading Program
consistent with Indiana
commonly referred to as the "Dollar House Program" was established
Code § 36 -7 -17, where Community & Economic Development capital
improvement funds were used to acquire "marketable buildings ".
All of the above - referenced programs were based on the "broken window" concept which
basically provides that when a broken window is left unrepaired, that it leads to more broken
windows and gives the appearance that no one cares for the property or protects the property. It
also was based on data and information shared at the I" National Conference on "Reclaiming
Vacant Properties: Strategies for Rebuilding America's Neighborhoods ".
The "Vacant & Abandoned Properties Task Force Report" was made public in February,
2013. The Mayor shared information at the March 4, 2013 Residential Neighborhoods Committee
where he projected that it would cost approximately $6,000 each per demolished home and
approximately $50,000 per home which is rehabilitated. The Mayor also called for "A thousand
homes in a 1,000 days" to be torn down.
Based on the projected costs and the millions of tax dollars already spent on vacant and
abandoned homes, the following ordinance is needed to provide greater transparency to the process
in light of the short and long -term effects. The proposed regulations are aimed to ensure that a well -
thought -out plan has been developed for the each of the neighborhoods where demolition is
proposed to take place.
This ordinance is believed to be in the best interests of the City of South Bend, Indiana.
Section I. Chapter 6, Article 8, Section 6 -37.2 of the South Bend Municipal Code is
amended to read in its entirety as follows:
Accountability of Government Actions on Buildings Declared Vacant or Abandoned Ordinance
Page 2
Sec. 6 -37.2. Accountability of Government Actions on Buildings Declared Vacant or
Abandoned.
(a) The Quarterly Administrative Reports required to be filed with the Office of the City
Clerk pursuant to Section 6 -37.1 (1) of this Code, must be current as of the last quarter immediately
preceding the demolition of a structure by the City or any entity hired to demolish said structure(s).
(b) Only demolitions which are a declared imminent public safety hazard to the health,
safety and welfare of the city may be demolished during any quarter where the Quarterly
Administrative Report is not current and properly filed with the Office of the City Clerk.
(c) For each proposed demolition a "Fiscal Impact /Future Use Summary Statement' shall
be required to be filed by the City Administration with the Office of the City Clerk, with such filing
being made not less than seventy -two (72) hours before the proposed demolition. Said form shall
be filed along with a completed City "Demolition Prioritization Form" set forth as Figure 82 in the
Appendix of the Vacant & Abandoned Properties Task Report, page 67. Both forms are attached
and included herein by reference.
(d) Upon the Office of the City Clerk receiving each "Fiscal Impact/Future Use Summary
Statement' from the City Administration, said office shall electronically send copies of each to all
members of the South Bend Common Council.
Section II. If any part, subsection, sentence, clause or phrase of this ordinance is for any
reason declared to be unconstitutional or otherwise invalid by a Court of competent jurisdiction,
such decision shall not affect the validity of the remaining portions of this ordinance.
Section III. This ordinance shall be in full force and effect from and after its passage by the
Common Council, approval by the Mayor and legal publication.

Re: Proposed Ordinance Addressing Accountability of Government Actions on
Buildings Declared Vacant or Abandoned
Dear Council Members:
I am pleased to introduce for your consideration, the attached ordinance which is
aimed to bring greater accountability of tax dollars proposed to be used on vacant &
abandoned properties, as well as the overall process involving properties proposed to
be demolished by the City of South Bend.
In a front -page article which appeared in the Sunday, March 10, 2013 South Bend
Tribune entitled "50 (Almost) Down, 950 To Go ", a picture of a wrecking ball
depicted the number of "Demolitions between 2008 - 2012 ":
2008
185
2009
118
2010
141
2011
25
2012
120
The above - listed demolition numbers from 2008 through 2011 were part of former
Mayor Luecke's May 29, 2007 announcement that "...a three -year $6.825 million
strategy to reduce the City's vacant houses by more than one - fifth, with the
primary focus aimed at reducing abandoned houses by 72% "would be moving
forward.
At Large I am attaching a map provided to the Common Council by the former City
Administration in late 2007. It depicts vacant & abandoned structures as of 2006 in
the City of South Bend, and "Calls for Service" showing five (5) levels of service
ranging from "absence or insignificant level, approaching negligible level, just below
concern level, reaching concern level, serious level to urgent level ". That map alone
highlights the critical need for a well thought out and comprehensive plan to address
the multi- faceted neighborhood issues which may be compounded by vacant &
abandoned buildings.
Cover Letter to Ordinance Addressing Accountability of Government Actions on Buildings Declared Vacant or Abandoned
March 15, 2013
Page 2
It is interesting that the 75 -page "Vacant & Abandoned Properties Task Force Report" released last
month, does not contain an updated map of the one depicting vacant & abandoned houses as of
2011, as well as the "Calls for Service" showing the five (5) levels of service.
In light of the 1,000 demolitions being promoted as an "ambitious plan" by Mayor Buttigieg, and
the related costs to the taxpayers for this demolition plan, and post demolition expenses, I believe
greater transparency and accountability is needed now more than ever.
Fiscal oversight is a duty and responsibility which the South Bend Common Council takes very
seriously. To assist the Council in carrying out those duties a "check and balance" component is
being created which is aimed at greater accountability. The attached ordinance would:
• Require that all City Offices which carry out the duties involving vacant building
have current "Quarterly Administrative Reports" on file with the Office of the
City Clerk. Such reports are to routinely summarize implementation &
enforcement actions of the city regarding "Vacant Building Maintenance and
Registration" — a requirement of Ordinance No. 9810 -07 codified in the South
Bend Municipal Code in Section 6 -37.1. This has been a requirement since
2007, however limited compliance and very few, if any filings have taken place
by the current and past City Administration.
• Requires the City Administration to file with the Office of the City Clerk a
completed "Demolition Prioritization Form" (1 page) which was set forth as
Figure # 82 in the Appendix by the 2013 Vacant & Abandoned Properties Task
Report
• Requires the City Administration to file with the Office of the City Clerk a
"Fiscal Impact /Future Use Summary Sheet" (1 page) which highlights the
location, Council District, affected Neighborhood, whether it was classified
abandoned or vacant, reasons for proposed demolition, reasons why the property
cannot be rehabilitated, proposed reuse of the subject property using Figure # 70
in the 2013 Vacant & Abandoned Properties Task Report; date, cost & funding
sources of proposed demolition; cost & funding source(s) of proposed reuse with
all of the information being signed by a fiscal analyst & Department of Code
Enforcement. This report and the Demolition Prioritization Report are to be filed
a minimum of 72 -hours prior to the demolition.
• Requires the Office of the City Clerk to timely send electronically to all Council
Members copies of the Demolition Prioritization Form and Fiscal Impact /Future
Use Summary Sheet upon receipt from the City Administration.
Cover Letter to Ordinance Addressing Accountability of Government Actions on Buildings Declared Vacant or Abandoned

I also believe that the Task Force, City Administration and Common Council need to discuss
whether there should be a posting on the City's website which is regularly updated summarizing
key information from these forms.
Partnerships are formed when individuals and organizations work together, not in isolation. By
having greater transparency of the entire process, I believe there would be a much greater likelihood
of the overall success of a meaningful program to rebuild our neighborhoods.
We need to collaborate and challenge each other, especially when millions of taxpayer dollars from
unknown sources may be involved. We must be vigilant so that other key city services are not put
in jeopardy. Past Fiscal Summits held by the City Council have stressed these components, and
should not be ignored.
I request that this information be referred to the Community Relations Committee chaired by
Council Vice - President Oliver Davis and the Residential Neighborhoods Committee chaired by
Council Member Tim Scott, who is also a member of the Vacant & Abandoned Properties Task
Force. I further request that a joint committee meeting be held so that we have the opportunity for
good dialogue.
Thank you.

AN ORDINANCE OF THE COMMON COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF SOUTH BEND,
INDIANA, AMENDING CHAPTER 6 OF THE SOUTH BEND MUNICIPAL CODE BY
THE INCLUSION OF NEW SECTION 6 -6.6 ADDRESSING SOILS AND WATER
TABLE REVIEW REQUIRED AS PART OF THE PERMIT PROCESS
STATEMENT OF PURPOSE AND INTENT
The South Bend Common Council notes that the U.S. Department of Agriculture and the
Natural Resources Conservation Service, in cooperation with Purdue University Agricultural
Experiment Station and the Indiana Department of Natural Resources, Division of Soil
Conservation and State Soil Conservation Board published in 2001 a 690 page Soil Survey of St.
Joseph County, Indiana which is available at:
http:// www. soildatamart.usda.gov /manuseripts/IN141 /0 /ST Joseph IN pdf
The Common Council further notes that this publication contains detailed soil maps which can
be used for planning which are the result of detailed fieldwork operations. It was provided to the
St. Joseph County Soil and Water Conservation District for their technical use & assistance.
The Common Council recognizes that the State of Indiana has a website maintained by
the Indiana Department of Natural Resources (DNR) which sets forth ground water data in the
State of Indiana since 1935. As noted on that site: http: / /www.in.aov /dnr /water /3482.htm
"ground water does not stay in one place. Gravity causes ground water to flow downward and
outward. Porosity -the -size and number of void spaces in the formation — determines how much
water can be stored in an aquifer. Permeability — the ability of water to move through void
spaces — indicates how quickly the water will travel through the aquifer... ground water flows
easily through the spaces between loose sand and gravel particles."
The Common Council further recognizes that a wealth of detailed information is
available to the Building Department which includes but not limited to:
• St. Joseph County Soil Information — Soil New Classifications dated June 24, 2010
with this data being available from internal GIS sources
• Maps depicting Wetlands
• Maps depicting Floodplains
• Maps depicting drainage basins /watersheds
Soils and Water Table Review Requirement Ordinance
Page 2
• "Published Soil Surveys for Indiana — Updates" maintained and updated by the U.S.
Department of Agriculture's Natural Resources Conservation Service which
specifically provides data on St. Joseph County, Indiana
• USGS Groundwater Publications available at hqp : / /water.usgs.gov /ogw/pubs.html
The Common Council recognizes the qualifications, duties, responsibilities of the
Building Commissioner set forth in Section 6 -4.4 of the South Bend Municipal Code. The
training and expertise of this key position and the Building Commissioner's ability to issue or
deny permits after a detailed review to determine compliance with and enforcement of the
building regulations codified in Chapter 6 of the South Bend Municipal Code is critical. The
proposed regulations addressing soils and water table review would improve the permit review
process. It further authorizes the Building Commissioner to work in conjunction with the
Director of Public Works and other agencies when conducting soils and water table reviews.
This ordinance has been prepared in the interest of providing another essential tool for the
Building Department. It provides the necessary enabling legislation so that regular, systematic
and routine reviews of soils and water tables are made prior to a permit being issued to build or
construct any new dwelling used primarily for residential purposes within the City of South
Bend, Indiana.
This ordinance is believed to be in the best interests of the citizens of the City of South
Bend, Indiana.

First District
We are attaching Substitute Bill No. 18 -13. It clarifies with greater particularity
Henry Davis, Jr. the overall intent and purposes of the original ordinance filed on April 17th .
Second District
The Substitute Bill provides reasonable and necessary tools to the Building
Valerie Schey Department when new dwellings are proposed to be built in the City of South
Third District Bend. The definition for "dwelling" is identical to that used in the zoning
Fred Ferlic regulations. That submitted data would be checked against the four (4) maps
Fourth District depicting soils, wetlands, floodplains, and drainage basins /watersheds. The
proposed ordinance would NOT change any of the current building regulations
David Varner addressing fences, walls, parking areas, loading areas, towers, antenna and signs.
Fifth District
The proposed ordinance authorizes reasonable conditions to be made if deemed
Oliver J. Davis reasonable and necessary upon the review of such information by the Building
Sixth District Department.

ORDINANCE NO.
AN ORDINANCE OF THE COMMON COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF SOUTH BEND,
INDIANA, AMENDING CHAPTER 6 OF THE SOUTH BEND MUNICIPAL CODE BY
THE INCLUSION OF NEW SECTION 6 -6.6 ADDRESSING SOILS AND WATER
TABLE REVIEW REQUIRED AS PART OF THE PERMIT PROCESS
STATEMENT OF PURPOSE AND INTENT
The South Bend Common Council notes that the U.S. Department of Agriculture and the
Natural Resources Conservation Service, in cooperation with Purdue University Agricultural
Experiment Station and the Indiana Department of Natural Resources, Division of Soil
Conservation and State Soil Conservation Board, published in 2001, a 690 page Soil Survey of St.
Joseph County, Indiana which is available at:
http://www.soildatamart.usda.90V/Manusciii)ts/IN]41/0/ST Joseph IN .Pd
The Common Council further notes that this publication contains detailed soil maps which can
be used for planning which are the result of detailed fieldwork operations. It was provided to the
St. Joseph County Soil and Water Conservation District for their technical use & assistance.
The Common Council recognizes that the State of Indiana has a website maintained by
the Indiana Department of Natural Resources (DNR) which sets forth ground water data in the
State of Indiana since 1935. As noted on that site: http://www.in.Rov/dnr/water/3482.html
"ground water does not stay in one place. Gravity causes ground water to flow downward and
outward. Porosity- the -size and number of void spaces in the formation — determines how much
water can be stored in an aquifer. Permeability — the ability of water to move through void
spaces — indicates how quickly the water will travel through the aquifer... ground water flows
easily through the spaces between loose sand and gravel particles."
The Common Council further recognizes that a wealth of detailed information is
available to the Building Department which includes but not limited to:
• St. Joseph County Soil Information — Soil New Classifications dated June 24, 2010
with this data being available from internal GIS sources
• Maps depicting Wetlands
• Maps depicting Floodplains
• Maps depicting drainage basins /watersheds
Soils and Water Table Review Requirement Ordinance
Page 2
• "Published Soil Surveys for Indiana — Updates" maintained and updated by the U.S.
Department of Agriculture's Natural Resources Conservation Service which
specifically provides data on St. Joseph County, Indiana
• USGS Groundwater Publications available at http://water.usgs.gov/ogw/l)ubs.htrni
The Common Council recognizes the qualifications, duties, responsibilities of the
Building Commissioner set forth in Section 6 -4.4 of the South Bend Municipal Code. The
training and expertise of this key position and the Building Commissioner's ability to issue or
deny permits after a detailed review to determine compliance with and enforcement of the
building regulations codified in Chapter 6 of the South Bend Municipal Code is critical. The
proposed regulations addressing soils and water table review would improve the permit review
process. It further authorizes the Building Commissioner to work in conjunction with the
Director of Public Works and other agencies when conducting soils and water table reviews.
This ordinance has been prepared in the interest of providing essential tools and
establish reasonable mechanisms for caring out such detailed reviews by the Building
Department. It provides the necessary enabling legislation so that regular, systematic and
routine reviews of soils and water tables are made prior to a permit being issued to build
or construct any new building or structure or enlarge or move an existing structure within
the City of South Bend, Indiana.
This ordinance is believed to be in the best interests of the citizens of the City of South
Bend, Indiana.
9%Q, & &orA&m%L by the Common Council of the City of South Bend,
Indiana, as follows:

Cover Letter to Soils and Water Tables Review Ordinance
April 17, 2013
Page 2
Authorizes the Building Commissioner, in conjunction with the Director of
Public Works, to implement additional conditions if warranted such as
requiring soil borings, recommend relocation, recommend that elevations be
given, deny the construction of a basement, require subsurface drainage
system, require a drainage system around the exterior walls; require a drainage
system under a basement floor; or require sump pumps with back -up power
supplies
Additionally, a cross - reference is made in the ordinance to the Building Commissioner's current
authority to deny a permit when deemed necessary. We are also attaching examples of the many
sources of documentation available on ground water from the USGS for informational purposes.
We believe that the proposed regulations are reasonable and a proactive measure to address real
concerns so that the safety, health and welfare of our citizens are protected.
This ordinance is proposed a similar spirit in which Ordinance No. 10225 -13 was made. That
ordinance was passed by the Common Council on March 25, 2013, and continues the
requirement for a Certificate of Occupancy which has been deleted from the Building Code.
We look forward to having discussions with you and the City Administration on this very
important piece of proposed legislation. Thank you.

Water -table and confined (artesian) aquifers.
WATER -LEVEL RISES
The opposite problem, namely a rising water table, has developed in some parts of
the country. Rising water tables occur in areas where pumpage has been curtailed after
years of large ground -water withdrawals, such as for mine dewatering or municipal
water supply, which kept the water table below its natural levels. The curtailment of
pumping allows the water table to rise to the previous natural level, which may flood
underground structures that were built when the water table was lowered.
In many parts of the country, water levels in shallow aquifers have been lowered
artificially over large areas. If houses are constructed in dewatered areas and if the
water table then recovers to its natural (higher) level, basement flooding or foundation
failures may occur, especially where the natural water level is within 10 feet of the land
surface. Many basements that were built in a dry unconsolidated material and that had
remained dry for decades have now become permanently wet. The public's first reaction
may be that unusually heavy precipitation in the past few months has raised the water
table or created a temporary perched -water system, when in fact the situation is much
more serious and will remain a problem unless pumping is resumed to maintain a lower
water table.
Where water levels are closely monitored, water -level records can indicate whether
such high water levels are related solely to climatic events or whether water levels are
recovering after nearby pumping has ceased. An increasing number of local areas are
being dewatered for mining or industrial uses, which could cause serious problems in the
future when such pumpage is decreased or ended.
Similar situations have occurred where housing developments were built during a
period of extended drought when the water table was low. Even if basements were the
"daylight" or raised type because the natural water table was shallow, the eventual
return of a wet period caused the water table to rise a few feet and flood basements.

A RESOLUTION OF THE COMMON COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF SOUTH BEND, INDIANA,
CALLING FOR A TEMPORARY MORATORIUM ON DEMOLITION OF BUILDINGS
WHICH ARE NOT A HEALTH AND PUBLIC SAFETY HAZARD
a Mayor's Task Force on Vacant and Abandoned Homes has been gathering information in
preparation of their upcoming Vacant and Abandoned Report; and
some of the details in the preliminary draft reveal that the City of South Bend has 1,900
houses which are vacant and 1,275 which are abandoned; and
while the topics of demolition and rehabilitation are being re- assessed, a temporary
moratorium on demolition of buildings which are not a true health and public safety hazard is an appropriate
route, especially in light of the fact that each home which is slated for demolition is a cost to the taxpayers of
approximately $6,000; and
GA" an open discussion of this topic and a plan of action would provide citizen engagement and
create purposeful enterprise; and
6))0 eaG since there has been a significant delay in the public release of the Vacant and Abandoned
Report, a temporary demolition moratorium on non - public safety hazard buildings would provide the
opportunity to review and refine current policies and procedures addressing demolition through collaborative
discussion to ensure standard operating procedures on this topic.
r i r r Vr r Vr r V r r %r a ii r.
Section I. The South Bend Common Council believes that there would be a benefit through the
Council's Residential Neighborhood Committee on the City's demolition policies and procedures and their
standard operating procedures in this area in collaboration with the Mayor's Task Force on Vacant and
Abandoned Buildings.
Section II. A temporary moratorium on the demolition of non - public safety hazard buildings for the
next sixty (60) days would provide opportunities for the re- assessment of demolition policies which are in the
best interests of the City of South Bend, Indiana.
Section III. This Resolution shall be in full force and effect from and after its adoption by the Council
and approval by the Mayor.

As you are aware, the 2nd District has one of the highest rates of home being demolished
by the City. I have therefore filed the attached Resolution which calls for a temporary
moratorium of such demolitions unless there is a public safety hazard requiring a
demolition.
I would like this Resolution sent to the Council's Residential Neighborhoods Committee
for review so that those discussions can take place now.
I look forward to meeting with you on this next Monday.

RE: Alley Vacation — The East/West Alley between Indiana Street and Dubail Street from Carroll Street to
the North/South Alley
(Preliminary Review)
Dear Pastor Taylor:
The Board of Public Works, at its March 26, 2013, meeting, reviewed comments by the Engineering
Division, Area Plan Commission, Economic Development, Fire Department, Police Department, and the Solid
Waste Division. The following comments and recommendations were submitted:
Area Plan stated that the vacation would not hinder the growth or orderly development of the unit or
neighborhood in which it is located or to which it is contiguous. The vacation would not make access to the
lands of the aggrieved person by means of public way difficult or inconvenient. The vacation would not hinder
the public's access to a church, school or other public building or place. The vacation would not hinder the use
of a public right of way by the neighborhood in which it is located or to which it is contiguous.
Engineering stated that you must maintain utility easements and, if necessary, pay for the cost of
relocating the utilities.
Therefore, the Board of Public Works submitted a favorable recommendation for the vacation of this
alley.
Please contact Tony Molnar at (574) 235 -9254 prior to nicking up Your radius map You will
need a radius map showing properties within 150' of the proposed vacation for your petition to the Common
Council. Once you pick up the radius map, proceed to the City Clerk's office for your alley vacation packet.
Sincerely,
i da M. Martin, Clerk

RE: Alley Vacation
Petitioner: Mt. Carmel Baptist Church
Location: East West Alley between Indiana and Dubail from Carroll to the North South Alley
Dear Board Members:
The staff has reviewed this petition. It is the staff's opinion that:
(1) The vacation would not hinder the growth or orderly development of the unit or neighborhood in which it is
located or to which it is contiguous.
It is the staff's understanding that the alley is purposed to be vacated for future development.
(2) The vacation would not make access to the lands of the aggrieved person by means of public way difficult
or inconvenient.
The petitioner owns the property adjacent to what they are requesting to vacate. The remaining sections of
the alleys would remain open for access to the other lots.
(3) The vacation would not hinder the public's access to a church, school, or other public building or place,
The church is the property owner requesting the vacation. The public could still access the church from the
remaining alleyways.
(4) The vacation would hinder the use of a public way by the neighborhood in which it is located or to which it
is contiguous.
The configuration of the remaining east half of the east/west alley and the north /south alley may hinder the
turning radius, especially of larger vehicles like garbage trucks.
Due to the above stated reasons, the staff recommends that the proposed alley vacation be approved subject
to the petitioner dedicating additional right -of -way from lots 67, 68, and 84, Bowman Place Addition to
accommodate the turning radius.
Please contact our office if you have any questions or need any additional information.

Angela M. Smith, Planner

AN ORDINANCE OF THE COMMON COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF SOUTH BEND,
INDIANA, AMENDING CHAPTER 5, ARTICLE 3, SECTION 5 -15 (a) AND (d) OF THE
SOUTHBEND MUNICIPAL CODE BY THE INCLUSION OF NEW ARTICLE 10
ENTITLED HONEY BEE KEEPING REGULATIONS AND AMENDING SECTION
2 -123 SCHEDULE OF ORDINANCE AND CODE VIOLATIONS
STATEMENT OF PURPOSE AND INTENT
The South Bend Common Council notes that the current regulations addressing bee
keeping within the city limits have not been updated in recent decades.
It is acknowledged that the State of Indiana aids and assists in the "development and
protection of the bee and honey industry..." as further addressed in Indiana Code 14 -24 -2. It is
further acknowledged that the Indiana Department of Natural Resources (DNR) Division of
Entomology and Plant Pathology maintains a government website posts and maintains
information on honey bees at www.in.gov /dnr /entomolo /5746.html and also at
www.in.gov/dnr/entomolo/2893.html
On January 7, 2010, the Congressional Research Service provided to Congress a report
on the "Honey Bee Colony Collapse Disorder ". This 17 -page document noted among other
things that the State of Indiana was one of thirty -five states affected by the colony collapse
disorder (CCD) where an "alarming number of bee colony losses and die - offs" began in late
2006. Symptoms of CCD include: rapid loss of adult worker bees; few or no dead bees found in
the hive; presence of immature bee; small cluster bees with live queen present; and pollen and
honey stores in hives which may be caused by pathogens, parasites, environmental stresses and
poor nutrition. Part of the U.S. Department of Agriculture's Action Plan to address CCD include
increased educational and outreach programs aimed at improving the "general bee health and
reduce susceptibility to colony collapses and other disorders..." Current reports for 2013 show
the highest level of commercial colony losses at an average of 55 %.
Much has changed in recent years with regard to municipal bee keeping regulations.
Many municipalities have established bee keeping regulations, some of which include Evanston,
Illinois; Cleveland, Ohio; Salt Lake City since 2009; Provo, Utah since 2011; Madison,
Wisconsin since 2012; Minneapolis, Minnesota since 2009; Milwaukee, Wisconsin since 2010;
Spokane, Washington — just to name a few. In 2010, New York City lifted its ban on bee
keeping within its city limits. New York City permits the honey - producing Apis mellifera bee,
which can produce as much as 100 pounds or more of honey annually.
This ordinance is believed to be in the best interests of the citizens of the City of South
Bend, Indiana, by setting forth reasonable honey bee keeping regulations.

Karen L. White
Chairperson, Committee Dear Council Members;
of the Whole
Tim Scott I am pleased to introduce for your review and approval, regulations which would
First District allow honey bee keeping in the City of South Bend.
Henry Davis, Jr. The proposed ordinance is similar to the Urban Chicken Ordinance recently
Second District passed by the Council, by incorporating reasonable health and public safety
regulations. The number of hives would be limited by size and the monetary
Valerie Schey penalty amount for violations is the same.
Third District
Fred Ferlic As you know, the only food desert in St. Joseph County is only in our City. Also
Fourth District with industrialization, a major concern focuses on colony collapse and other
diseases. Local honey bees are always better for any food source needing
David Varner pollination. There is a local grass roots group, along with Unity Gardens who are
Fifth District willing to help with educational outreach and training. They are also working to
raise money so that they can donate two (2) bee keeper suits to the Department of
Oliver J. Davis Code Enforcement.
Sixth District
Because honey bee keeping may be new to some of you, I am attaching the "List
Derek D. Dieter of Assistance for Bee Keeping in Indiana" which the Indiana Department of
At Large National Resources (DNR) posts on their website, which is referenced in footnote
Gavin Ferlic # 4, as well as a drawing of a flyway barrier.
At Large
I look forward to discussing this with you when it is referred to the Council's
Karen L. White Health and Public Safety Committee for review and recommendation, with 2nd &
At Large 3`d readings and public hearing proposed for May 29th. Thank you.

Re: Ordinance Appropriating Funds for Diversity Compliance Officer Salary and
Professional Organization Fees
Dear President Dieter:
As you know, the Minority and Women Business Enterprise Diversity Development
Ordinance passed by the Common Council on April 11, 2011 requires that many tasks be
performed by a "Diversity Compliance Officer." Attached is an ordinance appropriating the sum
of $20,575 from General Fund #101 to cover the salary of this part time employee (0.625 FTE).
It also appropriates an additional $5,000.00 from the General Fund to cover costs of membership
in two important, diversity related professional organizations, the Indiana Minority Supplier
Development Council and the Women's Business Enterprise Council.
A separate ordinance is being filed contemporaneously with the attachment which
amends the 2013 Salary and Wage Ordinance ( #10199 -12) for non - bargaining employees of the
City of South Bend, Indiana to create the "Diversity Compliance Officer" job position within the
City.
The City Administration believes that both the attached appropriation Ordinance and the
companion Ordinance amending the 2013 Salary and Wage Ordinance will help South Bend
achieve its goal of increased diversity development in City contracts, and hopes that the Council
will approve both Ordinances.
I will present the attached Ordinance to the Common Council at its Committee meeting
and at the public hearing.
Thank you for your consideration of these matters. _-
