HomeMy WebLinkAboutMinutes PC 03-19-19 Josh: I would like to recommend the Urban Forester to have his final approval before the Committee meeting. I
appreciate the bicycle parking. A bike fix it station would be a great amenity for the employees. KAR has an adult
playground. I like the idea of having an urban plaza,urban garden, a recreational space,and any another amenities for the
younger generation besides just having a nice looking office building.
Sue: I would like to see a picture that includes the ZP office building along with the Market District. It would be helpful
to see the contrast of them.
Brad: What's the height of the wall on the roof top of the parking garage? How high would the cars be screened by this
wall? Chris Boardman: There's a bumper wall that is 30"and there's a 12"screen wall on top of that. Those both add
up to 42". Brad: At Committee,bring the materials that would be used to screen the rooftop mechanicals. I want to
make sure the building interior lighting doesn't present a glare at night. What type of interior lighting will be used?
Josh: What will the pervious surfaces are used for the paths throughout the campus?What's the width of that path?
Chris Boardman: 10'.
Brad: The office building and parking garage are both 5 stories,but the office is 84' or 90' in height,where the garage is
50' in height. The story in the garage is not equivalent to a story in the office building. Chris Boardman: That is correct

60' of flat and 60' of ramp.

Committee Comments:
Josh Kirsh: What is the difference between the current classification and the proposed classification? Adrienne: It's
currently zoned a B-3,which is a business district. It allows for a variety of commercial uses. The C-1 allows for a mix
Iof uses,both residential and comrriercial. The site is already surrounded on two sides by the C-1 zone.
Josh: What is the CRC? Adrienne: The CRC is a 5 member body under the direction of the Carmel Redevelopment
Department. They assemble land and look at big picture planning. They are able to apply assistance with larger
structures. Josh: Is it safe to say that nothing will be added that would take away or devalue from the current area?
Adrienne: Correct. The uses that are permitted in the C-1 district are offices,retail,and residential. Josh: So better
than an empty building? Adrienne: Yes,way better. Josh: Does the CRC helps with empty and vacant buildings?
Adrienne: Yes,they help make improvements in larger areas, instead of single areas.
Sue: Are all the planning proposals approved by the Redevelopment Commission?This does not come back to the Plan
Commission? Adrienne: The development plans receive a public hearing through the Plan Commission's Hearing
Officer and does not come in front of the full Plan Commission. It still has the same public hearing requirements.

B-7,and B-8.

Public Comments:
Jean Tollman,lives just east of the subject area: I'm curious of the future plans. Do we have any projected ideas that
will happen to the area east of Pawnee? I have lived in this area over 20 years. It feels like this area is being chipped
away as time goes by. What are the 5, 10,and 20 year plans?
John Walls, lives on Pawnee Dr.: We just moved in,are doing a lot of home improvements. We already have a serious
traffic issue on Pawnee Drive. We need some kind of traffic plan for this area. We don't want the parking lot entrance of
this new facility right across from our driveway because we would be never able to get out. Can you address the future
Iplans?
Kathleen Cook, 805 Oswego Road: I'm concerned for the height of the buildings,traffic and the future of Ace
Hardware.
David Morrow, 141 Winona Drive: I imagine the houses on Pawnee Road along Range Line will be consumed by this
