Mr. Ellison said this would be considered a change of use, so there will be code requirements which will need to be met. Tony Kistner said they are gathering estimates for insulation to the pole barn but there are no plans to change the electrical system, and he added that most of the changes are minor. Mr. Ellison asked if there will be flammable liquids on site. Tony Kistner said the printers use a latex product for printing. Mr. Ellison said the main question will be whether a fire suppression sprinkler system is required. If it’s not required, then the building would need to have fire department vehicle access, which would mean at least a 20-foot wide road within 150 feet of the most remote part of the building. Mr. Ellison said the fact that this will be a commercial use means that everything changes regarding the requirements. Dave McCoy – City of Carmel Addressing Coordinator - Mr. McCoy said if this ends up going through, there would need to be an address assigned to the print shop. David Littlejohn – City of Carmel Alternative Transportation - Comment letter sent. No further comments at this time. Mr. Lauer asked where the multi-use path would be located after the dedication. Mr. Littlejohn said this path would be located within the right- of-way. Mr. Littlejohn said the petitioner may also make a monetary commitment in lieu of constructing the path, and they would work with the Engineering Department on this contribution. Nick Mishler – City of Carmel Building Permits - Mr. Mishler said along the lines of what Mr. Ellison was saying, if the pole barn will be used as a commercial structure, there may be items such as restroom facilities that will need to be added to get the building up to code. Angie Conn – City of Carmel Planning & Zoning - Review comments sent. Department is awaiting an official response. Ms. Conn said the packets for the full BZA will be due Friday, January 18. 9:45 a.m. Docket No. 18120010 UV UDO Section 2.05 Prohibited Uses in Overlay, Automobile Sales & Display requested. The 0.4 acre site is located at 10601 E. 106th St. It is zoned B2/Business and Home Place Overlay District, Business Sub-Area. Filed be E. Davis Coots of Coots, Henke & Wheeler, on behalf of Dianwei Wang and Meili He, owners. E. Davis Coots with Coots Henke Wheeler Law Firm presented the project. Mr. Coots said the owner of the property Mr. Wang currently has about 70 vehicles on the parcel, and he estimates an additional 30 vehicles on the new parcel. Mr. Coots said the plan is to pave the lot if this is approved and use concrete bumpers instead of curbing it, due to the temporary nature of the use. He added that there is a bicycle rack on the front of the existing building. Greg Hoyes – Hamilton County Surveyor’s Office - No comments or concerns on the use variance. Ryan Hartman – TriCo Regional Sewer Utility - No issue with the variance. Daren Mindham – City of Carmel Urban Forestry - Comments sent. Mr. Mindham said the Department would like to see some trees or landscaping on the site as it’s currently just an asphalt slab. Page 7 of 8 City of Carmel Technical Advisory Committee January 16, 2019 Chris Ellison – City of Carmel Fire Department - No comments. Dave McCoy – City of Carmel Addressing Coordinator - No comments at the variance. Mr. McCoy said he believes this is the only 5-digit address for an east-west street in the entire city. He said this should have been a College Avenue address but it can be changed if the owner ever decides to build a structure on the lot. David Littlejohn – City of Carmel Alternative Transportation - Letter sent. No further comments at this time. Mr. Coots said there exists a stamped concrete sidewalk that mirrors what was done on the west side of College Avenue. He added that on the south side of 106th Street there is currently nothing, and due to this being a temporary use of the property, the petitioner would ask that the path requirements not be applied to this project. Mr. Littlejohn said there are potentially several options, such as a contingency plan, a Development Standards Variance, or providing a monetary commitment in lieu of construction. Mr. Littlejohn said there is a multi-use path east of this property, and this is one missing section along the entire stretch of 106th Street that does not have a multi-use path, so it is a priority to get a path in this area. Mr. Littlejohn added that anytime a project comes through for a variance, the thoroughfare requirements would need to be met. Nick Mishler – City of Carmel Building Permits - No comments. Angie Conn – City of Carmel Planning & Zoning - Review comments sent. Ms. Conn said the Department would like the actual parcel numbers of the properties involved with the petition. Mr. Coots said he can get these parcel numbers from the county recorder’s office. 9:55 a.m. Docket No. 18120011 SP: The Estates at Towne Meadow. (submitted in ProjectDox) The applicant seeks administrative secondary plat and construction plans approvals for 44 lots on 35.97 acres. The site is located south of 116th St. and west of Towne Rd. (near 11400 Towne Rd.) and is zoned S1/Residential. Filed by Paige Drury of V3 Companies, on behalf of Platinum Properties Management Company, LLC. Ed Fleming with Platinum Properties and Jim Rinehart with V3 Companies presented the project. Greg Hoyes – Hamilton County Surveyor’s Office - Review is complete and letter will be sent.
