CARMEL/CLAY PLAN COMMISSION
SPECIAL STUDIES COMMITTEE
DEPARTMENT REPORT

th
Docket No. 144-01 Z; Gray Road and 96 Street (Rezone)
The site is located at the northeast comer of Gray Road and 96th Street. The petitioner is
requesting a rezone a 4.53-acre site from S-l (Residential) to B-8 (Business).
Filed by E. Davis Coots of Coots Henke & Wheeler for Glendale Partners/Gray Road
LLC.
The applicant is proposing to rezone 5.02 acres at the northeast comer of Gray Road and 96th
Street. The applicant has provided a conceptual site layout, building elevation, tract description
and survey drawing.
The Department requested that the applicant provide the following additional information as part
of the Department report for the December 18th Plan Commission meeting (some of the
information may be attached to this report, but at the time of this writing, Wednesday A. M., it
had not been received):
1. An Ordinance: If the submitted drawings reflect something the applicant desires to
commit to build, they need to address that through the proposed rezone ordinance or a
commitment referenced in the rezone ordinance. Ultimately, the Plan Commission is
forwarding a recommendation to the City Council on an ordinance, not their thoughts on
pictures that show a building that could go on the site in a particular way.
2. A traffic operations analysis: The analysis should include the existing configuration of
96th Street and Gray Road. The entrances reflected in the plan provided by the applicant
do not conform to the recommendations received by the Hamilton County Highway
Department. At a minimum, the Department would be looking for a commitment by the
applicant to dedicate right-of-way on both roads and construct improvements to Gray
Road in conformance with the Thoroughfare Plan.
3. The site needs to be split from the parent tract and placed under a separate deed to avoid
split zoning of single tract.
4. The applicant should also address the comments made in the attached letter from Mr. Bill
Wendling, an attorney representing the Kingswood Homeowners Association.
The Public Hearing was left open.
The Department recommends that this item be continued to the March 5th Special Studies
Committee meeting for further discussion. The applicant should submit additional
information no later than 2 weeks prior to the meeting to allow sufficient time for the
Committee and Department to review.
