• With me tonight is Todd Katz of JADAM Property Group and can answer any questions you may have
• Requesting an addition along the western side of the existing building that has been part of Mayflower Park since
1990. Concrete pavement and a wooden area currently exists on the west side of the building.
• Some trees will be removed during the construction process and we will be replaced with landscaping and trees
• The same building materials, colors, and look will be incorporated to the building addition
• The existing wetland areas in the wooded area will be mitigated. We will finalize any needed permits by mid-
March to early April (2021).
• There are existing drainage issues in the Mayflower Park area. We are planning to detain any stormwater runoff in
this new portion of our addition. We will not have a negative effect on the current drainage system. We are
working with TAC and the Carmel Engineering, so our release rate meets the City’s drainage standards.
• One truck dock will be part of the addition

comments from TAC members
Committee Comments:
Josh: Is Mayflower Drive privately owned? Rachel Keesling: Yes. Josh: Do all existing tenants along this drive
contribute to the maintenance plan of this drive? Rachel Keesling: I’m not sure. Brad: How much is spent yearly on the
maintenance of this drive? The drive is made of concrete and is often in bad shape. Josh: There has been conversations of
the City taking over this drive, but they are in bad shape so they City couldn’t take over ownership. Todd Katz: The
Common Owners Association has a fund that pays for these roads, and we had the roads paved last year.
Brad: Since there are no sidewalks in Mayflower Park, would it be productive to install sidewalks or contribute to the
sidewalk fund? Rachel Keesling: They will contribute to the fund for the multi-use path and the Alternative
Transportation Coordinator has approved their plan. Josh: I ask that this multi-use path goes all the way to the property
line instead of stopping 2’ short of the property line. Rachel Keesling: Yes, it goes all the way. Don Humphrey: Our
intention is to have it from property line to property line.
