Rangeline Road, at the northwest corner of Rangeline Road and 116th Street. In 2019 the City of Carmel acquired Right- of-Way from Kite for the construction of a roundabout at Medical Drive and Rangeline Road. The monument sign for Rangeline Crossing was located within that acquired R/W, in a landscape island north of the main entrance to the shopping center. Since the construction of the Medical Drive roundabout began in the spring of 2022, the shopping center has been without a monument sign on Rangeline Road. Kite would now like to construct a new monument sign in what remains of the landscape island, now at the northwest corner of the roundabout. The elevation of the remaining landscape island is much lower than Rangeline Road, so to make the sign visible from the road, it is necessary to raise the grade of the island to that of the roundabout and install a 2’ tall wall between the island and the shopping center parking lot. The result is a situation whereby the sign meets height requirements (i.e., 6’ from surrounding grade) when viewed from the south but is 2’ than code allows as viewed from the north. Kite would therefore like to request a variance from UDO Section 5.39.I.4, maximum 6’ tall ground sign allowed (8’ requested). Thank you for your consideration of this request. Please feel free to contact me with any questions or concerns. Sincerely, Tony Halsey Kite Realty Group PZ-2022-00122 Sign Height Variance Request Rangeline Crossing Carmel, IN July 25, 2022 Statement of Variance Request KRG Centre, LLC requests a variance from Unified Development Ordinance Section 5.39.I.4. This section prescribes a maximum ground sign height of 6 feet. The request is to allow a sign that is 6 feet high on the south side and 8 feet high on the north side. PZ-2022-00122 Sign Height Variance Request Rangeline Crossing Carmel, IN July 25, 2022 Statement of Support The variance request should be supported for the following reasons: 1) The old monument sign needed to be removed due to City road improvements, namely the construction of a roundabout at Rangeline Road and Medical Drive. 2) The only feasible location to construct a new monument sign is in the landscape island at the northwest corner of the roundabout. 3) The grade falls off sharply from the roundabout toward the landscape island. The landscape island must be raised level to the roundabout to allow visibility for the new sign. 4) Due to existing topography, raising the sign up to roundabout grade as described in (3) results in the north side of the sign violating a strict interpretation of the code. 5) All adjacent public road grades are significantly higher than the parking lot grade, so the sign will not appear abnormally tall.

DEVELOPMENT STANDARDS VARIANCE CARMEL ADVISORY BOARD OF ZONING APPEALS (Petitioner to fill out 1-3 + first two blanks) Docket No.: PZ-2022-00122 Petitioner: KRG Centre, LLC 1. The approval of this variance will not be injurious to the public health, safety, morals and general welfare of the community because: The previous sign was removed to allow for the construction of the roundabout at Medical Drive, which contributes to the safety and welfare of the community. Another sign is needed to allow for the continued viability of the retail center. 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 proposed sign is in a location immediately adjacent to the previous sign. Each face of the sign will be consistent with the look of the previous sign and the overall look of the shopping center. As viewed from all adjacent rights-of-way and adjacent properties, the sign will not appear taller than code allows. 3. The strict application of the terms of the Unified Development to the property will result in practical difficulties in the use of the property because: The need for a new sign is caused by the Medical Drive/Rangeline roundabout improvements, which eliminated the old sign. The only location that a new sign could reasonably be placed is below the adjacent road grades, which would obscure the sign. A strict interpretation of the code would therefore result in a monument sign that is obscured from view when viewed from the R/W.
