Daren Mindham I Urban Forester One Civic Square,Carmel,Indiana 46032 Ph:317-571-2417 From: Lopez, Alexia K Sent: Tuesday, September 02, 2014 3:02 PM To: Mindham, Daren Cc: Conn, Angelina V; Keesling, Rachel M Subject: Tree Species over Storm pipe Hi Daren, DOCS and the BZA have asked Kroger to plant at least 2, potentially 4,trees over the storm sewer piping for the Kroger expansion. This would be on the north side of the building and the goal would be to help break up the large brick wall along this side which faces Executive Drive and those businesses across the street. What trees would you recommend for this area which may not have as deep reaching roots? The storm pipe appears to be about 6 feet underground. We are meeting with Kroger tomorrow at 1.

Subsequently, please let me know if you would like to withdraw that variance request and I will make note of it on the agenda. Thanks, Alexia From: Gartner, Paula [mailto:pgartner@)emht.com] Sent: Thursday, August 14, 2014 11:41 AM To: Lopez, Alexia K; Keesling, Rachel M Cc: Rediger, Ryan Subject: RE: Carmel Kroger 3959 BZA Thanks Alexia. Per our special studies committee meeting, we agreed to decrease the size of the north sign to meet the ordnance for 70%of spandrel height. Given this,will we still need the second variance for the signs? Docket No. 14070017 V ZO CH 23F.08.01 40,000 sq.ft.
