FINDINGS OF FACT SHEET-DEVELOPMENT STANDARDS VARIANCE
CARMEL ADVISORY BOARD OF ZONING APPEALS
(Petitioner fills out 1-3, and first 2 blanks)
Docket No.:
?Z- o20e1�- 001�'?) V
Petitioner: DB Klein Construction, LLC—David B. Klain
1. The approval of this variance will not be injurious to the public health, safety, morals and general welfare of the
community because:
The moderately sized duplexes will fulfill an overlooked housing need with the community. The focus on these
duplexes is to provide newly constructed modern living units that are financially achievable within the city limits
of Carmel for all demographics.
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 moderately sized residential units in these duplexes will allow for more spacing between each of the units
and create a more appealing building mass along the street. The spacing will also allow for nice greenspace for
the residents to enjoy outdoor living within a beautiful quiet street. The buildings will include large outdoor patio
spaces with privacy fencing between the patios of adjoining units.The value of the surrounding properties will be
positively impacted by the investment being made in an architecturally pleasing design that allows for rental rates
in Carmel to be affordable for all demographics. All of the properties will be managed and maintained by local
ownership. All landscaping will be maintained by the building owner so that we can ensure that the lawns and
landscaping are always maintained nicely and professionally. The overall focus on quality maintenance and
upkeep will continue to drive values up throughout the community.
3. The strict application of the terms of the Unified Development Ordinance to the property will result in practical
difficulties in the use of the property because:
The current minimum lot standards only allows for larger residential units which would be beyond the financial
means of the target market, unless the building materials and construction was substantially cheapened.
