Re: Carmel Clay History Museum – BPW Request Letter
Alex,
We would like to formally request the closure of the sidewalk, adjacent to the property, north and east of the
site. The contractor would like to keep the fence behind the pavers so that construction doesn’t damage them
or the trees. See attached Site Utilization exhibit for additional information
Please let me know if there are any questions or if any additional information is needed.
Sincerely,

Re: Carmel Historic Society Building
Alex, John,
Please consider this letter as a formal request to seek Waivers for the following items at Carmel Historic
Society Building:
Carmel Stormwater Technical Standards Manual Section 303.07: Drainage System Overflow Design
The Finished floor elevation is required to be 1’ above the adjacent roadway and the MFPG is required
to be 1’ above the local ponding resulted in the 100-year clogged condition.
Due to the existing grades along the east side of the property and being required to meet ADA
requirements at the main entrance of the building (eastern entrance), the finished floor elevation has to be at
828.10. On the southside of the building we are approximately 10” above top of curb. However, with Monon
Boulevard increasing in elevation as you move north along the property line, on the north side of the building,
the building is about 4” below the existing top of curb.
Same issue with the MFPG. With the owner/developer wanting a Monon Boulevard access on the
north side of the building, it has created a low point on the north side of the building. In order to match FFE at
the door location while maintaining ADA compliant slopes, and matching at the existing Monon trail elevations,
the overflow elevation for that area, will be about 5” above FFE. We would like to request a variance from
these requirements.
UDO 5.21.C – Bufferyards (C2 District Only)
The minimum bufferyard width shall be equal to the building heigh of the nearest building to each side or rear
lot line, not to exceed thirty-five (35) feet.
We have placed the building along the east property line (as far east as we possibly can). This has
allowed us to maximize the rear yard on the west side of the property. However, due to the size of the building,
we are only able to provide ±15 feet. We would like to request a variance from the 35’ buffer yard requirement
for this project.
Please let me know if there are any questions or if any additional information is needed.
Sincerely,
Chad James, PE
Senior Project Manager
