RE: Carmel Science& Technology Park—Conseco ABC Parking Lot

Dear Mr. Fritz:
We have reviewed the construction plans submitted to the Hamilton County Surveyor's
Office on March 7,2006 for this project and have the following comments:
1. This proposed project falls within the incorporated area and MS4 jurisdiction of
the City of Carmel.
2. This proposed project DOES NOT fall within a Cannel Wellhead Protection
Zone.
3. This proposed project fall in the W.R.Fretig Regulated Drain Watershed. This
watershed has an allowable release rate of 0.24 cfs per acre.
4. The detention for this site is provided for in the W.R.Fertig Regional Detention
ponds located within Cannel Science and Technology Park.
5. Please submit an indirect outlet permit for this site discharge into the V .R. Fertig
Regulated Drain. The application is available on our website at
http://www.co.hami Iton.in.us,go to Departments,Surveyor,and Forms.
6. If any changes are made to the plans or drainage calculations based on review by
Cannel Engineering or Crossroads Engineering,please submit revised copies to
HCSO for our records.
84/05/2006 10:56 3177769628 HAMILTON CO SURVEYOR PAGE 02/02
7. HCSO recommends all casting should be labeled"Dump No Waste—Drains to
Waterway,"which are readily available now from local casting distributors.
Please add a note to the plans that will make the contractor away of this
requirement.
8. Please note that further comments may be necessary at a later date.
Should you have any questions,I can be reached at 317-776-8495.
Sincerely,
Greg Hoyes, AC

Subject: Conseco Parking Lot Expansion Landscaping Comments
Dear Gary:
Here are my current comments on the Conseco Campus Parking lot expansion:
1. Questions: Is this also a re-parcel? In other words will there be a new parcel line drawn along the
east border (between the parking lots)? What is planned for the remaining green space to the east
between the parking lots? Is the walking path going to stay in the green space to the east?
2. On the plans, there must be a graphic planting detail showing at least, but not limited to: root flare at
grade level, staking method (removed in one year), mulch, removal of binding and top 1/3 of burlap,
etc.
3. You have chosen some species that may be more difficult to find in the numbers you require ( black
gum, ginkgo). I would begin to order them now. I wouldn't wait until your landscaper is ready to plant
them to do the ordering, and then have him tell you her can't find them, He might suggest he plant 25
red maples instead, that would not be acceptable.
4. The linden species (Tilia) are very susceptible to severe Japanese beetle damage. I would suggest
using alternative native species to reduce there numbers on the east side by at least %, such as oak
(Quercus) other than pin oak, Kentucky coffee tree, hickory, London plane tree, and/or yellowwood.
5. Since the project is removing a fair number of large native trees and substantial amounts of usable
soil volume for planting for impervious parking surface, extra steps need to be taken to ensure that
the large maturing trees in the small parking lot islands have large enough soil volumes to attain their
height and health to provide the green infrastructure benefits they are capable of. These trees will not
only look aesthetically better, the shading of the parking lot will improve the life of the asphalt 40-60%,
lower air pollution, and provide more shaded parking which reduces energy costs. The best way to
increase the usable soil volumes in these areas is to use strips of structural soil along an east-west
orientation running under the parking surface thru the islands to the edges of the parking lot to the turf
edges. This material is compactable to 95%+ proctor strength and will support pavement as well as
provide pore space for root growth. I would be glad to meet with you to explain the advantages of this
material and give you more information. Dr, Ed Gilman's (University of Florida) website is one website
that explains this option with a lot of detail: http:Llhort.jfa~.ufl.edu/~ooelyjpJqlJtingLYr)::>anintro,btm .
bttpJ/""""'W.<::lsla,Qrglli;ltis!pgf/$trYGtYri;lU~Qil~LYPelatSlelQ812Q2,pelf is a n other good site. Structu ral
soils have been used successfully in Carmel at several projects: Fineberg Building, Shapiro's,
Providence at Old Meridian, Clarian Hospital, etc.
6. If the pathway to the east of the parking lot that exists now is going to be kept, it should be shown on
the plan (or its' removal), and any connections through or around the parking lot should be shown as
well. Additional shade trees should be planted to shade this walking path or sidewalk.
Please respond to these comments in writing and by revised plans. If you have any questions or would like to set
a meeting, please contact be phone or email. Thanks.

Jerry - we need Gary to start cooking on a submittal package if it wants to be heard on Feb 7. Matt will place this
as the last item on the 1/18 TAC agenda...but we need a landscape plan, lighting plan and site plan by next
Thursday, 1/12. the Engineering Department needs grading and drainage by that time as well.
The PC will only deal with circulation, landscape and lighting plans on the 7th...we will likely need Gary to come
back to February T AC for final issues....
I've copied Matt and Gary in the Engineering Dept. to get their thoughts as well
Yours truly,
Mike H.

......Mike ....per our discussion....below is the last rendition of the proposed Ingersoll

the twelfth version after much work and discussion (critical element to provide
the required # of parking spaces in area in back of the ABC bldgs)....Pls. advise
what additional committee reviews and petitioner fees have to be addressed
for final approval....note: this is the same plan that has undergone initial reviews
by your staff...........welcome back and happy new year.
