Sam Clark – Hamilton County Surveyor’s Office - Mr. Clark said he is just waiting on the drainage calculations as well as the comprehensive development plan. David Lucas – Hamilton County Highway Department - Mr. Lucas said although the Highway Department’s preference is to have their thoroughfare plan right-of-way, it is ultimately Carmel’s decision. He added that if the development continues at the current 1 to 5 ratio, the development will jump to 500 dwellings in a small subdivision. At that point, there would need to be a deceleration lane, so the Highway Department wants to make sure there is enough room to put this in. Also, Mr. Lucas said the site plan shows the detention outletting to the 146th Street Storm sewer, which is not allowed under any circumstances.

Mr. Sherman said the measurement is from the lower portion of the asphalt up to the top of the parapet. Mr. Dobosiewicz added that on the back end of the site, there will be a retaining wall. Ms. Lopez said they would like to do whatever is possible to keep this at two stories. Mr. Sherman said the goal would be to keep the building as low as possible.
