1. Lawrence K Hughes ("Petitioner"), pursuant to Indiana Code 36-7-3-12,
does hereby respectfully petition the Common Council for the City of
Carmel, Indiana, for the vacation of a portion of
the existing
Public Rights of Way of "Broadway Avenue" th
(the "Public Ways"), located entirely within the corporate boundaries
of the City of Carmel, Indiana, as is particularly described below and
in the exhibits attached hereto and made a part hereof.
2. The Plat and Public Way being vacated is more particularly
described in Exhibit "1" and depicted in Exhibit "2" hereto, this is
incorporated herein by this reference.
3. In support of this petition, the Petitioner submits the following:
A. The Public Way sought to be vacated will not hinder the growth
of orderly development of Carmel, nor of the neighborhoods
contiguous to or in which the Public Way is located.
B. Vacation of the Public Way will not leave any adjoining or
interested property owners without access to their real estate by
means of a public way or street or make such access
inconvenient or difficult.
C. Vacating the proposed Public Way does not hinder the public's
access to any church, school or other public place.
D. Vacating the proposed Public Way does not hinder the use of a
public way by the neighborhood in which it is located or to which it
is contiguous.
4. The following are the names and addresses of the owners of land
which abut the Public Way proposed to be vacated:
Lawrence K Hughes
10402 N Ruckle Street
Carmel, Indiana, 46280
Parknorth II, LLC
10402 n Ruckle Street
Carmel, Indiana 46280
5. Due to development of the property immediately north and west of
the Public Ways, the sections of Broadway Avenue and East 104th
Street are no longer needed for public access. The Petitioners need
the Public Way vacated to enable and enhance the construction of a
new commercial buildings and expansion on an existing business.
The increased property value due to the addition of a portion of the
Public way to the petitioner's property will benefit the City of Carmel
through enhanced property tax revenue.
