The applicant seeks design standards waiver approval from UDO section 7.26.A for private streets in three sections, including Northvale and Exmoor. A gated entrance is also proposed. The site is located at approximately 12500 Spring Mill Rd. It is zoned Silvara PUD/Planned Unit Development. Filed by Brett Huff of Stoeppelwerth & Assoc., on behalf of Republic Development. Doug Wagner with Republic Development presented the project. Mr. Wagner said this subdivision contains high end homes so this project is to create a little more exclusivity. He added that section 8 will be called Exmoor will be smaller empty nester homes but still in the $1 million range, and homes in the Northvale section will be $1.5-$2 million homes. Mr. Wagner said the goal would be for these streets to be private but the road design will be the same regardless, with all streets meeting Carmel’s specifications. Jerry Liston – Hamilton County Surveyor’s Office - Mr. Liston said if the section ends up being gated, the Surveyor’s Office will need codes to be able to access the site. Alex Jordan – City of Carmel Engineering Department - Mr. Jordan said the Department does not have any objections with the streets becoming private as long as they are built to the City’s standards. Ryan Hartman – TriCo Regional Sewer Utility - No comments. Chris Ellison – City of Carmel Fire Department - Mr. Ellison asked Mr. Wagner if he has any questions regarding making a street private. Mr. Wagner said there is an SOS device for the siren, as well as the Knox key switch. Mr. Ellison said the gate contractors will typically know what needs to be done. Jason Stewart – City of Carmel Utilties - This project is in TriCo service area. Dave McCoy – City of Carmel Addressing - No comments. Page 2 of 3 City of Carmel Technical Advisory Committee March 20, 2019 David Littlejohn – City of Carmel Alternative Transportation - Mr. Littlejohn said he submitted a comment on Project Dox asking how pedestrian access will be maintained.

Rachel Keesling – City of Carmel Planning & Zoning - No comments. Angie Conn – City of Carmel Planning & Zoning - Review comments submitted in Project Dox. Ms. Conn said since they are discussing what the entrance will look like, this might be something that should be included in the info packet. Mr. Wagner said they are working on a color rendering.

Ms. Bedell said a portion of this project is a multi-family structure that will be to the west in Boone County, and these two projects will be aligned. Jerry Liston – Hamilton County Surveyor’s Office - Mr. Liston said there is no County regulated drain effected by this project and there is no Hamilton County water shed, and therefore there is nothing required. Alex Jordan – City of Carmel Engineering Department - Comments sent. Mr. Jordan said for the Christian Brothers, more elevations are needed as well as flood protection info. On the site plan, Mr. Jordan asked that the Redd Road be made to the local street cross section, as the lane width is currently short by two feet. Mr. Jordan asked for the contact information for the apartments to see what is being planned for the Weston Pointe Drive. Ryan Hartman – TriCo Regional Sewer Utility - Mr. Hartman said he has been coordinating with the developer on the sanitary sewer extension. Mr. Hartman asked if the Redd Road improvements and the apartments will all be done by the same contractor and finish around the same time. Ms. Bedell said this has not been finalized. Mr. Hartman said if the contractor is not going to carry the sewer through the site, the the apartment sanitary sewer will need to be tested and approved, and then it could be extended. He added that the Christian Brothers project will need to have everything tested prior to being approved.
