CARMEL/CLAY PLAN COMMISSION
DEPARTMENT REPORT
August 21, 2001
2h. Docket No. 52-01 PP; 1422 Hazel Dell Pond
Petitioner seeks approval to plat a thirty-six lot subdivision on 23.95::1: acres. The site is
located northwest of East 11 6th Street and Hazel Dell Parkway. The site is zone~
Residential. it. ~
The petitioner also seeks approval of the following Subdivision Waiver:
52-01 SW sea 6.3.7 >600' cul-de-sac
Filed by William E. Wendling, Jr. for Mark Stout Development, Inc
The applicant is proposing to plat a 36-10t subdivision on approximately 24 acres in an S-2 zone.
Please see the informational booklet supplied by the petitioner for information on the layout of
the subdivision as well as the proposed landscaping plan. The subdivision lies along the west
side of Hazel Dell Parkway and within an area between the Lake Forrest and the Brookfield
Subdivisions (see attached aerial prints).
The applicant is requesting one subdivision waiver to allow access for the subdivision off of
Hazel Dell Parkway to be located across from the entrance of Brighton Woods Subdivision (see
entrance in photo). This applicant has prepared the primary plat as presented (with the entrances
aligning) at the request of the Carmel Engineering Department. However, this alignment will
require approval of a subdivision waiver by the Plan Commission.
The Department has received several comments from the public regarding this proposed
subdivision. Specifically, comments have centered on the location of the proposed east west
street connecting the two existing subdivisions. To address these concerns the Department
would like to see the landscape and buffering treatment along the north end of the subdivision
extended east to the pipeline easement and west to a point 30' from Winbush Way. In addition
we have asked the applicant to explore replacing the proposed cul-de-sac at the west end of the
subdivision with a roadway configuration that is less intensive such as an eyebrow shaped
intersection. This would reduce the amount of asphalt in the area and increase green areas. We
hope to have additional information on this modification at the meeting.
The Plan Commission may desire to see the proposed subdivision signage at this time. If signage
is not submitted and approved as part of the Primary Plat the applicant will e required to return at
a late date to present signage in the form of a ADLS Amendment.
The Department recommends that this item be forwarded to the Subdivision Committee on
September 4th for further discussion.
