New law on mobile homes might affect county zoning

A proposed mobile home ordinance for Kosciusko County might have to be reworded due to a new law in the State Legislature forbiding discrimination on any factoryconstructed housing,'' This announcement was made at last week’s meeting of the Kosciusko County Area Plan Commission by Director Dan Richards. The law has already been passed in the Senate and chances look good for its passage in the House. Commission members discussed various restrictions they could impose on all singlefamily residences in zoned areas except those designated campgrounds, mobile home parks and mobile home subdivisions. Originally, the commission wanted to exempt restrictions in agricultural areas, too, but decided these areas should be protected the same as residential areas. Richards commented, “This county is the tops in the state for farm income. We’ve got to keep our eye out and protect our farming interests.” Restrictions Restrictions discussed included the following: the residence must have a length-width ratio of less than four to one; the residence must have a storage building of no less than 480 square feet if there is no basement or garage; the residential structure must have a shingled roof and a permanent fully enclosed block foundation; if the residence is a type of manufactured housing, it must bear the HUD seal of approval; and there must be a minimum of 720 square foot of living space. Richards will draw up a proposed ordinance and bring it back to the next meeting for further discussion and possible adoption. * In other business, a preliminary plat petition for Dennis Richcreek for a residential subdivision in Tippecanoe Township was tabled until the May 2 meeting. The land in question is a 5.10 acre track of land located on the west side of CR 850E and 580 feet north of CR SOON. Commission members felt a cul-de-sac road is needed for proper access. This road would also be needed for future expansion, said the board. Richcregk disagreed saying he wantejd to have the access off the county road. Richcreek is proposing a subdivision of five lots with an average 41,979 square feet per lot. Richcreek commented, “If you do that you're going to be turning the lots around. It won’t look as nice. It will be more flooded and congested. J don’t think the adjacent property owners are going to like the looks of it.”

Mrs. Larry Kinsey, an adjacent property owner, agreed with Richcreek. She said, “I really feel the way he wants to develop it it would be better for us.” Mrs. Kinsey was also concerned about what type of housing will be allowed in the subdivision. She asked, “Are there going to be any recorded restrictions on the lots? What are you going to put on the lots?” Richcreek replied a list of restrictions will be drawn up before the final plat. As to what he will use in the subdivision, he said, “To be honest I don’t know. I just wanted to get it plated.” No Decision Dee Stiver made a motion to deny the petition, which Betty Dust seconded. It failed to pass by a majority of five, so the petition was tabled. Richcreek said he plans on bringing in a petition signed by the adjacent property owners opposing the cul-de-sac road. A preliminary plat ..petition filed by Jerry Hickman, Camelot Lake of the Valley Corp., was apprbved. The plat calls for a planned unit development on a 109.22 acre tract of land located on the south side of CR 1300 N and 1,270 feet west of CR 300E in Van Buren Township. The development will include commercial, recreational and residential areas. A total of 81 lots are planned with an average 20,000 square feet. Single family dwellings will be constructed with a value between and $120,000. Hickman said no commercial enterprises will be allowed which would disrupt the residential side of the development. He said, “We are planning retail sales and service enterprises to serve the

Trekking Troubadour available to libraries

Libraries in Elkhart, Kosciusko, Marshall and Saint Joseph Counties will be “plugging in” to a unique form of artistic expression this May by Trekking Troubadour, Tom Jordan. Jordan is a highly regarded composer and performer of electronic music, specializing in creating quadraphonic environmental performances. As Trekking Troqbadour, Jordan will be available to do performances and to conduct musical workshops for Area Two Library Services Authority member libraries, number 44 in the four county area. The project will be administered by Margaret McNeill, ALSA 2 coordinator. Partial support for the project comes from the Indiana Arts Commission and the National Endowment for the Arts. The first planning session for the project will be held at the Goshen Public Library from 2:30 to 4:30 p.m. on March 29 for librarians, arts organization officers, interested teachers and the general public. To register for the program, call Margaret McNeill at ALSA 2 headquarters in Nappanee. Tom Jordan, a resident of Indianapolis, has a varied and extensive music background, including participation in the South Carolina “Arts in Motion”

residents. We do not want any arcades, pool halls, dance halls, anything that would disturb the residential use.” He added. “The main thing we would want to piit in there are gas pumps, a large swimming pool and retail sales.” In the future, he would also like to put in a “nice” dinner club. Stiver made the motion for approval saying, “This is what we’ve been looking for over there for a long time. It’s the best use for this land.” It was passed by an unanimous vote. Smith Petition Another petition for a preliminary plat was approved by the commissioners. The petition, filed by Stanley Smith, calls for a residential subdivision on a 1.43 acre tract of land located on the east side of Barbee Lake Drive, north of Irish Lakeview Drive and between Barbee and Irish Lakes in Tippecanoe Township. Smith is planning on four lots with an average 15,000 square feet per lot. This is the only piece of undeveloped land in the area. One minor concern was the access. Another road will have to be put in before the final plat is approved. Finally, the board gave its go ahead on the vacation of an easement in Turkey Creek Township. The road is located behind the Stiver residence on North Shore Drive in Syracuse. The Syracuse Town Board has already given its ok. The commission will forward its recommendation to the Superior Court Judge Robert Burner, who will make the final decision. The next meeting of the commission is April 4.

program, instruction at Brown University and work with the New Music Ensemble of Providence, R.I. He had developed and directed educational programs at all levels from primary to college, including demonstrations and workshops for kindergarteners, the hearing impaired and even a South Carolina prison. One of Jordan’s interests is the development of programs in composition for high school students. His music combines rhythm, tonality and space to create a totally enveloping womb-like environment. He creates a very intimate mood and invites his audience to personally explore all the elaborate electronic equipment. Participating libraries in each community will be publicizing Jordan’s appearances which are to be scheduled for the month of May. Tires stolen from parked vehicle Tom Walls of r 1 North Webster reported to Kosciusko County officers last week of the theft of four tires from his car parked at Warsaw Volkswagen Inc., in Warsaw. Thieves placed the foreign made car on cement blocks, and took the tires valued at $250.
