This site is zoned S1/Residential. UDO Section 2.04 identifies a maximum building height of 18-feet for all accessory buildings. Marcos Rodriguez is requesting a variance to the development standards of Section 2.04 of the Unified Development Ordinance to construct an outdoor pavilion with a height of 19-feet 8_3/4 inches. It is our belief, that this proposed outdoor venue will improve the usability and aesthetics of the existing church property and benefit its users as well as the neighboring community.

College Park Church is located at 2606 West 96th Street, Indianapolis, IN. Project participants are as follows, College Park Church Team: Bruce Smith, Katie Schulenborg, Mark Vroegop, Tyler Ritz, and Ted Nolting (lawyer). Aspen Group: Marcos Rodriguez (Project Architect), Mark Underwood (Landscape Architect), Kristen Freeman (Interior Designer), César Espinoza (Architectural Designer). Meritcorp Group LLC: Clay Schuler (Civil Engineer). Per UDO Section 2.04, the maximum building height for accessory buildings is 18-feet. The owner is seeking a developmental standards variance for the proposed outdoor pavilion with a height if 19-feet 8-3/4 inches. This proposed accessory building will be located on the northside area of the property where it will be surrounded by tall trees. These trees will provide a visual barrier to most of the building from the adjacent neighborhood. Moreover, this outdoor venue will be stepped back from the nearest main road, Towne Road, by approximately 600 feet. It is our opinion that the proposed height of 19-feet 8-3/4 inches is essential to the design aesthetics the owner is looking for, and it will be a positive complement to the community as well. The existing College Park Church campus contains the existing church building, surface parking lot, stormwater management facilities, underground utilities, and a vacant land area to the north. The property adjacent to east property line (E. of Towne Road) is a heavily wooded area with Delaware Creek and a large stormwater area connected to the creek. The subject development area onsite does not contain wetlands, riparian areas, or floodplain areas. The development area will total approximately 2.26 acres and require detention. The pond addition was calculated as required in the City of Carmel Stormwater Technical Standards Manual. The northwesternmost detention basin will be expanded to provide an additional 0.16 acre-ft of required detention storage. Pond Construction Best Management Practices (BMPs) will be provided for water quality. Aspen Group • 9645 Lincoln-Way Ln.
