10216 N Michigan Road, Carmel IN
Because of our use (a daycare), outdoor space and playground space is both required by the Health Department and
critical to an effectiive daycare. UDO Section 5.19.F requires a certain number of shade trees and shrubs, which
we're unable to provide all of them and also provide the playground spaces.
The BZA should grant this as the west and north are both sides of the property that aren't visible from any public street, as the
west side of the property abuts the development's stormwater retention pond, and the north side is abutting the rear of an
industrial pool business storage building, and is not visible from their site. Furthermore, we are set back off Michigan and are
a nested site within the development, so these trees would not be visible from any public right of way. Finally, we've done our
best to add extra trees on the other available areas to make up what we needed to remove in the playground area.
