(Petitioner fills out 1-3 and first 2 blanks)
Docket No : PZ 2021-00056V PZ 2021-00057V
Petitioner: Old Town Companies (Rebecca McGuckin)
The approval of this variance will not be injurious to the public health, safety, morals and general welfare of
the community because:
relocating an existing home to the urban farm property of approximately 1.7 acres
wltM a height of one is not isrup rve to the communily as it blends wI1M Me gTe-en
space setting and the additional rear setback preserves growing space, which also
increases general community welfare by beautifying the surrounding space.
2. The use and value of the area adjacent to the property included in the variance will not be affected in a
substantially adverse manner because:
the one story home is contextually appropriate on an urban farm space while also
fronting Me path and ce a ra Ing urban residential elements. reserving IM rear yard or
maximum production space also improves the value of the adjacent area through visual
appeal.
3. The strict application of the terms of the Unified Development Ordinance to the property will result in
practical difficulties in the use of the property because:
This is to move an existing home, which is already built out as a one story property, so
maximum 20' rear yard setback would undermine the intent of the property for urban farming
and would again preclude allowing a residence for the future farmer on the same plot.
DECISION
It is therefore the decision of the Carmel Board of Zoning Appeals that Development Standards Variance Docket
No is granted, subject to any conditions stated in the minutes of this Board,
which are incorporated herein by reference and made a part hereof

NOTICE OF PUBLIC HEARING BEFORE THE CARMEL BOARD
OF ZONING APPEALS HEARING OFFICER
Docket No. PZ-2021-00055 V
Notice is hereby given that the Carmel Board of Zoning Appeals Hearing Officer meeting on April 26,
2021 at 5:30 p.m. will hold a Virtual Public Hearing upon a Development Standards Variance application to:
Max. 55-ft house width required, 83-ft requested.
The design of this home is based on an Arts & Craft style of architecture. This style is in keeping with
the historical character of Old Town Sub-Character Overlay and the many of the new homes in the District.
The home is divided into two principal and distinct wings with a 5-foot-wide connector hall at the rear. The
north wing is 26- feet wide, the south wing is 40-feet wide, and the connecting hall is 17-feet wide. The
combined width of the two wings and connector is 83-feet. While combined width exceeds the 55-foot limit,
the individual wings do not. The connector is also located 30-feet behind the building line of the north wing
so the two wings will appear to be separate structures from the street. This layout along with having
separate utilities for each wing will allow the current or future owners to subdivide the property, into 52-foot
and 80-foot plats respectively. Limited remodeling (eliminating the connector and adding a kitchen) will result
in two individual houses.
For property being known as 670 1st Ave NE, Carmel, IN.
The real estate affected by said application is described as follows:
Tax Parcel Number: 16-10-30-05-01-006.000
The petition may be examined on the City’s website, through Public Documents - Laser Fiche.
This will be a virtual meeting. It is recommended that persons wishing to view this meeting do so online

Pergola with a purpose

of experience and can be reached at bill@

Commentary by Bill Bernard
Pergolas come in all sorts of sizes,
shapes and styles. This particular pergola
has a relatively modern
design. It is constructed
of cedar and hovers
above a new deck. The deck is finished with
Trex composite decking that was installed
with concealed fasteners. The result is an
elegant structure that extends both the
living space of the home and the enjoyment
of the deck. The orientation of the struc-
tural elements, as well as the inclusion of
a secondary layer of cedar purlins, creates
a light shade that will make spending time
on the deck more enjoyable, especially on a
warm afternoon.
Concealed within the structure of the
pergola are a series of low-voltage lights
that allow for nighttime enjoyment of the
space. The lights will accentuate the mod-
ern lines of the structure. Wrapping the
perimeter of the deck is a guardrail con-
structed of cedar and black aluminum bal-
usters. Soon to be installed is a ceiling fan.
The fan will be suspended from the center
of the pergola structure, and it will create a
gentle breeze to help keep the homeowners
cool and help keep the flying pests at bay.
For me, passing time beneath a pergola is
one of life’s simple pleasures. Is it time for
you to consider incorporating a pergola into
your outdoor living space?
Stay home, be moved.
This pergola, with a guardrail constructed of
cedar and black aluminum balusters, will soon
have a ceiling fan added to create gentle breez-
es and keep flying insects away. (Submitted

History of world’s busiest canal
Don Knebel is a local resident who
works for Barnes & Thornburg LLP.
For the full column visit donknebel.

editorial@youarecurrent.com.
Commentary by Don Knebel
Germany’s Kiel Canal is the world’s bus-
iest artificial waterway, accommodating
more ships than the Suez and
Panama Canals combined.
The waters north of Germany
are divided into the North and Baltic seas
by the Jutland Peninsula, jutting about 270
miles into those waters. Denmark occupies
the northern three quarters of the peninsu-
la and the German state of Schleswig-Hol-
stein occupies the southern quarter.
In 1871, Schleswig-Holstein became part of
the German Empire, ruled by Kaiser (Emper-
or) Wilhelm I. With Germany now united, it
became important that German commercial
and military vessels could go between the
North Sea and the Baltic Sea without going
around Denmark. As a result, the German
government decided to construct a canal
near the base of the Jutland Peninsula,
running southwest from Kiel to Brunsbüttel,
with locks at both ends.
Construction of the canal began in 1887,
with 9,000 workers moving 100 million cubic
yards of dirt. In 1895, Kaiser Wilhelm II offi-
cially opened the 61-mile-long canal, 10 miles
longer than the Panama Canal, and named
it the Kaiser Wilhelm Kanal in honor of his
grandfather. Using the canal instead of
going around the Jutland Peninsula cut the
travel distance of ships going between the
North Sea and the Baltic Sea by about 450
nautical miles. Between 1907 and 1914, Ger-
many enlarged the canal to accommodate
its largest battleships.
Although the Treaty of Versailles opened
the canal to international shipping, Adolf
Hitler closed it in 1936. The canal was re-
opened after World War II and renamed the
Kiel Canal. The canal is spanned by 11 fixed
bridges, each providing at least 138 feet
of clearance. The canal can accommodate
ships as long as 772 feet and as wide as
106 feet, dimensions excluding the largest
container and cruise ships. Despite the lim-
itations, up to 130 ships travel through the
Kiel Canal each day.

A cutesy look at pet names
GRAMMAR GUY
Commentary by Curtis Honeycutt
Remember that episode of “Seinfeld”
where Jerry and Sheila (Jerry’s girlfriend
for one episode) call each other “schmoop-
ie”? This schmaltzy,
saccharine show of
cutesy nicknaming
made the rest of the gang sick. Most peo-
ple remember this episode for the “Soup
Nazi” yelling “No soup for you!” I, however,
can’t get the baby-talk nicknames out of
my mind.
Did you know there’s a term for these
pet names? It’s called “hypocorism.” We
get the term from the Greek word “hypo-
korizesthai,” which means “to call by pet
names.” In general, the term applies to
whenever adults talk like babies, create
diminutive nicknames for other words or
names, or use another fond term to re-
place someone’s name. When researching
this topic, I found that hypocorisms are all
over the place in Australia. Some believe
this is because the Aussies are generally
welcoming and friendly people, and these
sorts of fond nicknames flow naturally
out of that interpersonal warmth.
Have you ever noticed people adding
“-y” to the end of a word to make it sound
cuter? That’s a hypocorism. My daughter
(who is 3) calls her blanket a “blanky.” The
“blanky” is fuzzy and “comfy.” Of course,
the rest of our family follows suit with this
kind of talk because it’s just so darn cute.
A “kitten” becomes a “kitty.” “Bird” turns
into “birdy.” In the 1920s, the term “chamber
pot” gave us the word “potty.” In our family,
we’ve gone so far down the hypocorism rab-
bit hole that koalas have become “koalies.”
Think about when you’re talking to
someone dear to you. Instead of saying
“Agnes” (if Agnes is the focus of your
endearment), you say “honey.” I’m sure
you have a dating or married couple who
calls each other “babe.” While “babe” is a
far cry from “sugar pie” or “honeybunch,”
it counts as a form of hypocorism, or as I
like to call it, a precious wittle hypycory.
