Introduction of the project 2. Statement of Variance 3. Statement of Support 4. Location Map 5. Reductions of Plans 6. Ballot Sheet 7. Finding of Facts sheet A Development Standards Variance request has been filed on behalf of the owners, Terry and Kimmi McCardwell, for the property at 45011 Ave NW, Carmel, IN in the Old Town Overlay Character Subarea. The McCardwells will be building a custom single-family home. The final design plan for our clients resulted in a house width that was 51 feet 5 inches where the zoning ordinance only allows for a maximum of 45 feet in house width. The proposed home was designed so that the garage is not the dominant feature of the architecture of the front facade. Statement of Variance The Old Town Design Group, LLC is proposing the approval of a development standards variance for the property located at 450 1$' Ave. NW, Carmel, IN 46032 in order to build a new 2-story house for the McCardwells. The site is zoned R-2/Residence and is within the Old Town Overlay Character Subarea. The application is identified with Docket Number: PZ-2020-00160 V. The Old Town Design Group, LLC has filed a request for approval of the Development Standards Variance regarding UDO Section 3.64.C.1: Maximum width allowed 45'. The variance we are seeking is to increase the width of the residence to 51.5'. The Old Town Design Group, LLC looks forward to presenting and discussing this request for this project. Friday, October 16, 2020 Dear Carmel Board of Zoning Appeals Member: We have filed a Development Standards Variance request on behalf of the owners, Terry and Kimmi McCardwell, for the property at 45011 Ave NW, Carmel, IN in the Old Town Overlay Character Subarea. The final design plan for our clients resulted in a house width that was 51 feet 5 inches where the zoning ordinance only allows for a maximum of 45 feet in house width. The proposed home was designed so that the garage is not the dominant feature of the architecture of the front facade. Homes with a front -loading garage with an overall width of less than 50' result in the garage being the dominant feature of the architecture of the front facade. Setting the garage at least 15' back from the front plane of the house (a requirement of the Old Town overlay) and having the garage be less than 50% of the front facade results in a more attractive street front elevation. Without relief from the practical difficulty of the 45' maximum house width the home's front elevation will be dominated by the garage facade. We believe that the increase in building width will allow our clients to build "age in place" home with adequate square footage and the desired living space. We believe the custom home will have elevations that are attractive and will be a good fit for the neighborhood, keeping in line with the quality of The Old Town Design Group, LLC's single-family homes. We look forward to the BZA hearing officer meeting on Monday, October 26, 2020 and will gladly answer any questions you may have at that time.
