HomeMy WebLinkAboutPacket for BZA HO 05-28-19 Docket No: 19040017 V i� tiWi ikih 1 7 2019 May 15, 2019 Docket No: 19040017 V Address: 1631 W Main Street, Carmel IN 46032 Subject: Variance Request Overview & Summary To: City of Carmel Planning and Zoning Teams, We are requesting variance approval for a 6ft fence at our home on Main Street in Carmel. Our two young children are at the age where they are starting to ride bicycles. With new homes and neighborhoods increasing in West Carmel, Main Street has become a very busy road. For the safety of our kids, we would like to put a fence and gate along the Northern edge of our property (running parallel to Main Street) to ensure our children's safety. The current height of fence allowed is 42-inches. As we reviewed fence and gate styles, we believe a 6-ft fence would provide the safety that we seek for our kids and provides the visual aesthetic we desire given our property layout and for being on such a prominent street. A 6-ft fence is not uncommon in our area and we are adhering placement of fence/gate to all required utility and road right-of-way requirements. Our property is 2.7 acres, falling just shy of the 3 acre minimum for a 6-ft fence. We appreciate your consideration and support in this manner. Please let us know if there are any additional questions or information that we can provide to support our efforts. Andrew and Laurie Schneider Petitioners Docket No: 19040017 V STATEMENT OF VARIANCE REQUEST Petitioner would like to build a 6-ft tall fence to run along the northside of the property of 1631 W Main Street in Carmel to protect small children from the busy road. Property is slightly under the 3-acre requirement for this size of fence (property is currently at 2.7 acres) so a variance is requested. The fence in question is a decorative fence mixing aluminum, stone and an automatic gate for driveway access. Docket No: 19040017 V STATEMENT OF SUPPORT In support of this variance, please consider the following statements of support and reference materials: • The underlying need for a fence is for safety. We have two young children that are entering bike, scooter, etc riding years and Main Street has become increasingly busy with the addition of new neighborhoods and housing. A fence and gate are needed for safety of our kids. • The city limits on fencing height for a front yard is 42-inches-tall for properties under 3 acres. Our property is 2.7 acres—only slightly below this 3-acre minimum. We are seeking a 6-ft fence that will more properly fit the size and feel of the property. • Aesthetically, the fencing and column work will be visually appealing given the visibility to Main Street and increase the property value and curb appeal. • The placement of the fence and gate will not interfere with road-right-of-way or utility easements. o The road-right-of-way extends 45ft from the middle of Main Street south towards our property. The utility easement extends an additional 10ft into the property. o The planned fence location is 55ft from the middle of Main Street and outside of all right of ways/easements. o We have a survey scheduled to stake the easement to ensure column and fence placements are not installed within the 55ft requirement. o A fire hydrant is located on the property but planned fence placement is more than 3ft away from hydrant ensuring clear and unobstructed access. o 811 will be called 48 hours in advance before fence posts are drilled. o The gate and stone operater columns are an additional 10ft behind the fence line (65ft from middle of Main Street) to ensure fire, ambulance, delivery and other large vehicle access without obstruction of roadway traffic. o The gate will also be equipped with emergency entrance function in case of emergency.

DATED THIS DAY OF , 20 Board Member Page 10 of 12 Filename:development standards variance application&instructions 2019 Revised 01/10/19 FINDINGS OF FACT SHEET- DEVELOPMENT STANDARDS VARIANCE CARMEL ADVISORY BOARD OF ZONING APPEALS (Petitioner fills out 1-3 and first 2 blanks) Docket No.: 19040017 V Petitioner: Andrew and Laurel Schneider 1. The approval of this variance will not be injurious to the public health, safety, morals and general welfare of the community because: Impacts only our property to ensure safety of small kids from busy road. Property is only slightly smaller than 3-acre requirement for 6ft fence at 2.7 acres. Design and height are appropriate for the aesthetic of the home and increase property value and curb appeal given high visibility of Main Street Road. 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: Fencing only impacts our property and only the North side of the property which faces Main Street. All utility and right-of-way easements have been considered and included in requested placement of fence. 3. The strict application of the terms of the Unified Development Ordinance to the property will result in practical difficulties in the use of the property because: We seek to protect young kids from busy road as they begin their bike riding years. We believe a 6ft fence fits with the design style and size of the property. DECISION It is therefore the decision of the Carmel Board of Zoning Appeals that Development Standards Variance Docket No. is granted, subject to any conditions stated in the minutes of this Board, which are incorporated herein by reference and made a part hereof. Adopted this day of , 20 CHAIRPERSON, Carmel Board of Zoning Appeals SECRETARY, Carmel Board of Zoning Appeals Conditions of approval of the Board, if any, are listed on the Letter of Grant.
