Greenwood, Indiana 46142 (317)888-5681 Fax-(317) 888-5734 WWW.GETTUM.COM Development Standards Variance requests have been filed by Gettum Associates Inc. on behalf of Eric and Ashley Inman, for their property located at 12020 Towne Rd., Carmel, In 46032. The property is zoned S-1. The final design plans for this guest house project require variances as follows: The height of the guest house is 24.5 ft and the maximum height allowed by the UDO is 18'-0. The location of the guest house is approximately 54'-0 in front of the principal residence where the ordinance requires an accessory building to be a minimum of 25 ft behind the principal residence. We look forward to discussing these variance requests on the 23rd of October. ---------- r�nar' Itit5-UCit, 7["a_ design & Remodeling .Contractors September 14th, 2023 Dear Carmel Board of Zoning Appeals Hearing Officer: 4984 W. Smith Valley Rd. Greenwood, Indiana 46142 (317) 888-5681 Fax-(317) 888-5734 WWW.GETTUM.COM We have filed Development Standards Variance requests on behalf of Eric and Ashley Inman for their property located at 12020 Towne Rd., Carmel, IN. This project was specifically designed to fit on the same footprint as a recently demolished horse barn which had been at this location for many years. The project is designed to support the principal residence by adding a guest suite to allow for overnight guests. The principal residence has only four (4) bedrooms which are occupied by the Inman's and their three (3) children and does not comfortably provide for guests to spend the night. In addition to the guest suite, the owner's require a quiet second floor office away from the families busy activities. The first variance request is a variance from UDO Section 2.04 which limits the building's height to 18 ft. to the 24.5 ft required by the final design to provide proper head room on the second floor. The second variance is to UDO Section 5.02 (B) (1). The ordinance requires an accessory building to be a minimum of 25 ft behind the front of the principal residence and we are requesting a variance to 54ft in front of the residence. Each of these variances are necessary to repurpose the existing paved driveway and same footprint as the original horse barn. This structure is positioned in the center of an almost 7 acre parcel, surrounded by trees from the main house and from the adjoining property owners. The new structure will be an aesthetic improvement from the old horse barn and will add value to the neighborhood without negatively impacting any sightlines or views from the surrounding homes. In addition, the architectural look of the structure is very much in keeping with the neighborhoods along Towne Rd. We are looking forward to answering any questions you may have at the Monday Oct 23, 2023 BZA Hearing Officer meeting. Sincerely, Phil Gettum Gettum Associates Inc.
