CARMEL ADVISORY BOARD OF ZONING APPEALS
CARMEL, INDIANA
Docket No.: 18090001 V – Variance from UDO Section 2.10: Minimum Front Yard Setback 35
ft. required to 25 ft. proposed
Petitioner: Wedgewood Real Estate Partners, LLC
FINDINGS OF FACT – DEVELOPMENT STANDARDS VARIANCE
1. The approval of this variance will not be injurious to the public health, safety, morals and general
welfare of the community because:
The requested variance is necessary in order to develop a new garage on Lot 3A, of which,
consists the existing structure. By placing the garage in the rear, this will allow the removal of
the driveway on Main Street allowing safer entrance and exit of the home. As a result, approval
of the variance will not be injurious to the public health, safety, morals and general welfare of
the community.
2. The use and value of the area adjacent to the property included in the variance will not be affected in
a substantially adverse manner because:
The requested variance is necessary in order to develop a new garage on Lot 3A, of which,
consists the existing structure. The uses that surround the lot on the east, west and south are
other existing single-family homes and the uses that surround the proposed new lot to the north
are apartments. As a result, approval of the variance should have a positive impact on the use
and value of homes and area that are adjacent to the proposed new lot.
3. The strict application of the terms of the Zoning Ordinance to the property will result in practical
difficulties in the use of the property because:
The R2 development standards, as strictly applied to the proposed lot, would result in practical
difficulties in that they would prevent the creation of the new lot for the construction of a new
custom home. As a result, absent the granting of the requested variance, the Applicant will not
be able allow the construction of a new rear garage allowing safer traffic flow on Main Street.
