CARMEL PLAN COMMISSION
Docket No. 19090007 SW
NOTICE IS HEREBY GIVEN that the Carmel Plan Commission will conduct a meeting on the 15th day of
October, 2019 at 6:00 o’clock p.m., at the Carmel City Hall Council Chambers, 2nd Floor, One Civic Square,
Carmel, IN 46032, to hold a Public Hearing regarding subdivision waiver application identified by the Docket Number
referenced above (the “Waiver Request”). The subject real estate consists of approximately 6.8 acres, is generally located
at 1101 Rohrer Road, Carmel, Indiana and is identified by the Hamilton County Auditor’s Office as Tax Parcel
Identification Numbers 17-09-24-04-10-002.000, 17-09-24-04-10-001.000, 17-09-24-04-10-001.001, and 17-09-24-00-
00-019.001 (collectively, the “Real Estate”).
The Real Estate is zoned R-1 Residential District and the Lennar is seeking to develop a townhome community to
be known as “Monon Crossing” and has filed zoning applications identified as: (i) Docket Number 19050017 Z seeking
to rezone the Real Estate from its current R-1 Residential District zoning classification to the UR: Urban Residential
District zoning classification; and, (ii) Docket No. 19050018 DP/PP/ADLS seeking Development Plan, Primary Plat, and
ADLS approval for the “Monon Crossing” townhome community (collectively, the “Zoning Applications”).
In conjunction with the Zoning Applications, Lennar is also requesting approval of a Waiver Request pertaining
to the Unified Development Ordinance, Article 7.25 E.3.A “Connectivity” (when a proposed development abuts land that
has an established and existing stub street that the proposed development provide a connection to the existing stub street).
To this end, a stub street exists on the northside of the Autumn Lake Subdivision (the stub street is known as “Autumn
Lake Overlook”) and this stub street is adjacent to the southern boundary of the Monon Crossing Real Estate. Lennar is
not proposing to construct a full street connection from its Real Estate to the Autumn Lake Overlook stub street, but
instead is proposing a “gated” emergency drive connection to this stub street which will effectively address public safety
and will allow an opportunity for additional tree preservation in the area around the existing stub street.
A copy of the Request that is described above and the accompanying plans are on file for examination at the
Department of Community Services, Carmel City Hall, One Civic Square, Carmel, IN 46032, telephone 317-571-2417.
All interested persons desiring to present their views on the proposal, either in writing or verbally, will be given
an opportunity to be heard at the above-mentioned time and place. Written comments filed with the Department of
Community Services prior to or at the Public Hearing will be considered, and oral comments will be heard at the Public
Hearing. The Public Hearing may be continued from time to time as may be found necessary.
