Public Comments:
Nancy Tatum,Lexington Farms: I'm speaking as a steward for the remaining forests in Carmel. I'm suggesting they
build on the fields and leave the trees alone. I'm not seeing much greenspace on the site plan. Leave the trees and you
would have greenspace. I would ask for a study on the existing forested area to be documented.
Greg Stephens, Waterwood HOA President: We have concerns of the height of the townhomes on the west side that
border our neighborhood. We would ask that the buildings are scaled down to a maximum of 35-ft. We would like to see
an expansion of the tree preservation area for this site.
Lisa Clark, 111 th Street: 106th Street is closed and what would traffic do with this development? What are the plans for
111 th Street?There are tons of vacant commercial buildings down the road. Why do we need more?This development will
add a lot more people to this area. Be sensible and make sure the roads can accommodate the extra traffic.
IAnn Marie Yarger,Northern Heights: We have 80 homes in Northern Heights, and 191 homes in Waterwood. The
Comp Plan states to protect existing neighborhood with low density. Our neighborhood is bigger than the land that will be
developed but they will have 1,000 residents,plus four commercial buildings and two parking garages. Please protect our
neighborhoods like ours. Is this a fair treatment of our neighborhoods?This property is still owned by the Meyer family.
