Reminder: Snow Removal Is the Responsibility of Property Owners and Occupants – With a winter storm upon us, the City of Mishawaka would like to remind all residents and property owners of their responsibility to keep sidewalks clear of snow and debris in accordance with Mishawaka Code 58-527. Keep Your Water Flowing This Winter: Tips to Avoid Frozen Pipes – When temperatures drop below freezing for an extended period, water in pipes can freeze, expand, and cause pipes to burst, leading to water loss and expensive repairs. To help prevent this, we recommend letting your water trickle from a faucet during frigid weather. A small, steady stream of water can keep your lines flowing and reduce the risk of freezing.

Remo Belli Honored with Historical Marker

A new historical marker has been placed at 127 W Twelfth Street to honor Remo Belli. Remo was born in the home in 1927 and graduated from Mishawaka High School in the class of 1945.

After service in the U.S. Navy, we moved to California to pursue his career as a drummer. He founded Remo, Inc, creating the Weather King synthetic drum head.

Remo died in 2016, and the sign was unveiled on June 22nd, 2022, which would have been Remo’s 95th birthday. His sister, Elsie (Belli) VanBruaene, along with other friends and family, attended the ceremony, which included a performance by the Mishawaka High School drumline.
