In connection with the above entitled matter; please find enclosed for filing with the
Carmel Plan Commission a drawing prepared by Paul I. Cripe, Inc. which more accurately
depicts the tree preservation area located adjacent to the west boundary line of the real estate.
A drawing previously filed designated a part of the triangular- shaped parcel of real estate
adjacent to the west property line of the Shurgard property, now owned by Coots, Henke and
Wheeler Investment Co. and not being purchased by Shurgard, as a tree preservation area. The
revised drawing clearly establishes that construction fencing will be installed to protect the stand
of existing trees; however, if and when the real estate is developed by Coots, Henke, certain
existing trees may be removed. I am hopeful that the revised drawing clarifies any possible mis-
interpretation.

Dear Jim:
(11
rmel
This office has reviewed the plans for the Shurguard Storage Centers. There are no un- resolvable
concerns that we have with this project.
Before this office would approve this project for construction, the petitioner would need to obtain
the following:
1. Appropriate Plan Commission Approvals
2. Approvals from the Indiana Department of Transportation
3. Approvals from the Department of Natural Resources
4. A sanitary sewer permit from IDEM
5. Approval from the Carmel Board of Public Works and Safety of sewer and water availability.
6. Pay for a sewer and water permit in this office.
a. The sanitary sewer, that is being constructed for this project, needs to be
a publicly donated sewer. As a result, the developer will have to post
a 100% performance bond for the construction and upon completion and
acceptance by the City, post a 3 year maintenance bond for this work.
b. The same will be true for the intersection reconstruction and street construction.
Copies of the approvals listed above (with the exception of the approvals by the City of Carmel)
should be filed with this office by the petitioner.
If you have any questions, please feel free to call me.
Ve Truly Yours

COMMENTS.
- County Soil & Water, John South says letter submitted; petitioner not required to submit
Notice Of Intent letter for erosion control; need permit to work in State Highway for
storm water discharge. Petitioner requested to add passing blister and acel /decel lane;
petitioner needs permit for boring under US 421 for water line. South states existing
wells need to be capped properly. Regarding erosion control, South recommends silt
fencing for protection of site across front; would recommend gravel construction entrance
for project; also recommend swales to be installed at first part of project to capture mud
from project.
- County Surveyor, Steve Cash needs drainage plans and calcs; main question is where
site drains -- impact on the Crooked Creek watershed, flow into Crooked Creek North of
96th Street? No permits needed from Surveyor's office. Petitioner needs approval from
State Highway for discharge.
- Indiana Gas, Jerry Robinson no comment.
- IPL, Kevin Walker states project not in his area -- -will direct to proper party.
- DOCD, Mike Hollibaugh has not seen revised plans per his review comments dated 9 -9-
94. Mike requests petitioner revisit overlay requirements and ordinance requirements
regarding landscaping; US 421 overlay requires landscaping between building and
sidewalk.
- DOCD, Dave Cunningham states lighting would be best if "shoebox" type and would
need detail. Signage would require variance thru BZA, (two signs on wall, one ground);
department would not recommend variance to the Board and would be in support of the
ordinance. Privacy fence material to be chain link with slats of black plastic vinyl. Dave
Cunningham requests roof projection, mechanical equipment and trash storage to be
screened. Commitment required by INDOT for sidewalks along Michigan Road; non -
opposition to annexation statement requested. Petitioner to appear at October Plan
Commission and Board of Zoning Appeals.
SHURGARD STORAGE FACILITY - DP /ADLS and Variances
Petitioners seek approval (DP /ADLS and Variances) to construct a storage facility at the point
of US 31 Meridian Street and US 431 Keystone Avenue. Site is zoned B -3.
Filed by Jim Nelson for Shurgard.
Appearing for the petitioner were: Jerry Cleary and Paul C. Wells of Shurgard Storage Centers;
Doug McAuley of The Douglas Company; Paul Endris of Paul I. Cripe; Steve Fehribach of A
& F Engineering; Steve Henke; and Jim Nelson. Jim Nelson gave a brief overview of the
proposed storage facility. The petitioner appeared before TAC in August and submitted plans.
The property is zoned B -3 Business and lies within the US 431 and US 31 overlay zones. The
petitioner will be appearing before the Plan Commission to present the Development Plan and
ADLS application. The petitioner will also be appearing before the Board of Zoning Appeals
to present the Special Use Application. Access to the real estate will be by way of a proposed
extension of an existing roadway parallel to Rangeline Road, northward at the intersection of US
3
31, the right of way of which will be 50 feet in width, 30 foot back -to -back roll curb and gutter.
In addition to the warehouse facilities, one of the buildings will contain 1200 square feet of office
space; one building is 27,500 square feet, the other is 26,225 square feet. The plan provides for
77 parking spaces, including two handicap spaces, which is less than the number required under
B -3 (variance to be requested). In regard to landscaping, the existing trees adjacent to Cool
Creek which runs through the real estate will be preserved. There will be supplemental
landscaping installed by the developer. Mike Hollibaugh of DOCD is in the process of reviewing
the landscaping plan as submitted. The signage is in compliance with the sign ordinance.
COMMENTS:
- County Soil & Water, John South requests erosion control plan; requests written
explanation regarding detention, would defer to Randy Powell. Concern regarding
contour changes to the north of first building- -six foot elevation difference between
proposed contour and existing -- questions adequate space unless retaining wall is
planned. Petitioner states intent was for a two to one slope with Crown Vetch. John
South requests further work; should be shown on site plan. Regarding existing or
proposed culvert along entrance road, need to know size, material, adequacy; would like
more detail and verification statement.
- County Surveyor, Steve Cash states no permits required; will defer to Randy Powell of
City.
- City Engineer, Dick Hill first reviewed in September - -will defer comments until receipt
of revised plans.
- City Utilities, John Duffy regarding water and sewer, states current plans do not show
water connection; need to tie in at Lotus Garden. Plans need to reflect 10 foot separation
between water and sewer. Carmel Fire Dept. will be requesting a hydrant 500 ft. north
of existing hydrant at Lotus Gardens. City also requesting easement for water and sewer.
Need size of meter; sanitary sewer does not show elevation and size. Water connection
needs valve.
- DOCD, Mike Hollibaugh listed ten comments in prior letter; has not received revised
plans. According to rendering and present plans, some landscaping items look to be in
conflict with 31 Overlay. Petitioner to compute landscaping to see if it meets ordinance.
- DOCD, Mark Monroe questioned height of tower and color scheme; petitioner will
provide sample of both split faced block as painted and metal roofing materials within one
week; tower is 35 feet tall, colors are Shurgard's corporate colors. NOTE: Terry Jones
advised petitioner not to use banners.
- DOCD, Dave Cunningham advised signage illumination will need to be looked at
regarding intensity as well as color. Petitioner says mechanical equipment will be on
ground and screened by landscaping or behind a wall - -no roof equipment.

Dear John,
I received your comment letter dated. September 16, 1994 for the above mentioned Shurgard Storage
project. I would like to take this opportunity to thank you for responding to my request to get
comments prior to the TAC meeting.
I would also like to take this opportunity to respond to your.comments individually. I will repeat
each of your comments as made in your letter and follow each with a response. I feel this approach
will keep you from having to refer to the original letter and then back to each response. The

1. Erosion control plan is needed. This submittal was for an ADLS approval from the City
of Carmel. Final construction plans will be prepared after approval of the ADLS submittal
by the Plan Commission. A erosion control plan will be included in the final plans and a
copy of these plans will be forwarded to your office for your review.
2. Storm water detention was required on the last site plan submitted for this property. When
this project was in the conceptual design phase I had a meeting with Randy Powell of the
Carmel City Engineers Office and he informed me that detention would not be required.
Randy forwarded a letter to me stating that retention would not be required. I would be
happy to send you a copy of this letter if you would like.
3. This site has a great deal of grade change. Proposed contour lines or depicting the side
slopes is needed. The grading/utility plan as originally shown did not show proposed
contours. The City of Carmel also made a request that proposed contours • be shown. The
grading /utility plan has been revised to illustrate the proposed contouring on the edge
., conditions. .
4. Label the culvert that crosses the entrance drive. The culvert that runs under the entrance
drive near the end of the existing asphalt drive will be labeled on the final construction plans..
