Board of Zoning Appeals Hearing Officer Meeting
Monday, August 28, 2023 — 5:15 pm
Applicant: The Old Town Design Group, LLC
Matt Huffman, 317-605-8796, matt a oldtown.companies.com
Development Standards Variance requests have been filed by The Old Town Design Group, LLC
on behalf of our clients, Hon Vien and Trina Sherlitz-Vien, for their property located at 1571 Asherwood
Ln., Carmel, IN, which is zoned S1/Residence. The clients are building a custom two-story single-family
home in Asherwood. In addition to the home, the plans include an attached residential accessory
building structure that shall be a pool house and connected to the primary building by a
breezeway/portico.
The final design plans for the project require variances as follows: (i) the accessory building has a
height of 20'-2 %" where the zoning ordinance only allows for a maximum of 18' for an accessory
building height, and (ii) the ground floor footage of the private garage and accessory building combined
is 79% of the ground floor of the principal building, where the zoning ordinance states that the
combined square footage of the ground floor of a private garage and/or accessory building shall not
exceed 75% of the ground floor area of the principal building. We look forward to discussing the
variance requests.
August 18, 2023
Dear Carmel Board of Zoning Appeals Hearing Officer:
We have filed Development Standards Variance requests on behalf of Hon Vien and Trina Sherlitz-Vien
for their property at 1571 Asherwood Ln., Carmel, IN.
The final design plans for the client's custom designed home resulted in an attached residential
accessory building structure that shall be a pool house for the owners, which is defined in the UDO as an
Accessory Building. We are seeking development standards variances for the height of the Accessory Building
and the square footage of the Accessory Building/Private Garage as combined.
First, we are seeking development standards variance approval for the Accessory Building's building
height of 20'-2 1/4". The UDO under Section 2.04 allows a maximum allowed accessory building height of 18'.
The height of the first floor of the Accessory Building is consistent with the principal building and there is a
breezeway/portico roof that connects the two structures on the first floor. There is an additional 2'-2 %" in
height allows the principal home and pool house to be consistent in height and architectural detail. This provides
a consistent and cohesive look to the project.
Second, we are seeking development standards variance approval for the combined square footage of
the Ground Floor of a Private Garage and/or Accessory Building to be 79% of the Ground Floor Area of the
Principal Building. The UDO under Section5.02 (13)(3)(a) states the combined square footage of the Ground Floor
of a Private Garage and/or Accessory Building shall not exceed 75% of the Ground Floor Area of the Principal
Building. The additional 4% requested allows the owners the square footage for their garage for parking of their
vehicles and storage space and the entertaining space and square footage for their pool house.
The owners shall provide a commitment that the Accessory Building will not be used as a
residence/dwelling, a copy of which is included in this BZA Info Packet.
We believe the Accessory Building is an attractive addition to the architecture of the home. The home
was designed to be consistent and compatible with the existing homes in the area. The custom designed home
has elevations that are attractive and will be a good fit for the neighborhood, keeping in line with the quality of
The Old Town Design Group, LLC's construction.
We look forward to the BZA Hearing Officer meeting on Monday, August 28, 2023, and will gladly
answer any questions you may have at that time.
Sincerely,
Matt Huffman

FINDINGS OF FACT SHEET - DEVELOPMENT STANDARDS VARIANCE
CARMEL ADVISORY BOARD OF ZONING APPEALS
(Petitioner to fill out 1-3 + first two blanks)
Docket No.: PZ-2023-00171 V and PZ-2023-00172 V
Petitioner: The Old Town Design Group, LLC
1. The approval of this variance will not be injurious to the public health, safety, morals and general welfare of the
community because:
the requested variances allow the accessory building to be cohesive and consistent with the primary building.
The increase in height of the accessory building and the square footage will not be injurious to public health,
safety, moral or general welfare of the community.
2. The use and value of the area adjacent to the property included in the variance will not be affected in a substantially
adverse manner because:
the improvements to the property will be architecturally consistent with the Asherwood neighborhood
and will add value to the property.
3. The strict application of the terms of the Unified Development to the property will result in practical difficulties in the
use of the property because:
the accessory building would not be cohesive and consistent in design and architecture with the primary building.
The square footage of the pool house accessory building and private garage as combined square footage limits
the owners in square footage for storage, parking space, and entertaining space as desired.
