Allow a hotel use on the first floor of a multi-story multi-tenant building. (ZO Chapter 2.39); FINDINGS OF FACT 1. The grant of this variance will not be contrary to the public interest, due to the existence of special conditions such that the enforcement of the Unified Development Ordinance will result in unnecessary hardship because: The special conditions that pose an unnecessary hardship relate to the fact that the properties to the surrounding the Real Estate are zoned MC Meridian Corridor with office and retail uses. The Applicant proposes to build a multi-story m ulti-tenant structure on the Real Estate for purposes of using the structure as a hotel and a mix of retail and restaurants for public use. The hotel will have the lobby, gym space, and laundry on the ground floor with the rooms on the second floor and above. 2. The grant of this variance will not be injurious to the public health, safety, morals and general welfare of the community because: In addition to the reasons set forth in Paragraph #1 above, the approval of the requested variance will not be injurious to the public health, safety, morals and general welfare of the community because the requested variance would allow a multi-tenant multi-level mixed use commercial building complementary of the surrounding uses. The proposed Avid Hotel will have attractive architecture and provide retail and restaurant uses for the region. 3. The use or value of the area adjacent to the subject property will not be substantially affected in any adverse manner because: In addition to the reasons set forth in Paragraph #1 and #2 above, the use and value of the area adjacent to the real estate that is the subject of the requested variance will not be affected in a substantially adverse manner because the commercial building would be complimentary to the office and retail uses that surround the site. The Avid Hotel will not have a substantially adverse impact on the area adjacent to the site. 4. The need for the variance arises from a natural condition peculiar to the subject property because: The existing MC zoning does not permit limited hotel use on the first floor Real Estate, despite the intent of the MC zoning district which allows a hotel use on upper floors only. For safety reasons, the hotel would allow the general public access to remain on the first floor and the rooms on all floors above. 5. The granting of this variance does not substantially interfere with the Carmel Comprehensive Plan because: Avid Hotel follows the intent of the MC Meridian Corridor zoning district that includes a mix of residential and commercial uses and buildings where the focus is to encourage an employment corridor along US Highway 31. The proposed building compliments other buildings within the US Highway 31 corridor while accommodating a day and night culture within the region.
