CARMEL PLAN COMMISSION
SUBDIVISION COMMITTEE
DEPARTMENT REPORT
March 30, 2006
6. Docket No. 06020006 PUD: Aramore PUD
The applicant seeks a rezone to create 150 townhomes & 72 courthomes on 27.35 ac.
The site is located near the SE comer of Westfield Blvd and 99th St. and is zoned S2.
Filed by Nick Churchill of Pittman Partners Inc.
The applicant is requesting approval of a Planned Unit Development to allow the construction of a
residential development comprised of a mix of townhouses, and quad-unit condominiums. Please refer to
the ordinance and exhibits submitted with the packet mailing for full details.
This proposal is for the rezone of the property. This proposed PUD language specifies that approval of
this PUD will also act as approval of the DP and ADLS. As such, architecture, design, landscaping, and
site layout must be discussed in detail during this process. The Plan Commission will not see any portion
of this proposal again after it is approved.
As proposed, access to the site will be provided via both Westfield Blvd. and 99th Street. Full
connectivity within the development and to surrounding areas is planned.
The public hearing for this item was held at the March 21 Sl Plan Commission meeting. Concerns
indicated by the Plan Commission and the public included tree preservation, a mix of housing types,
drainage, and building height. Due to the potential impact on adjoining properties and Westfield
Boulevard, a traffic study was requested.
Outstanding concerns and requests include:
1. Elevations of all 4 sides of the Townhome (rowhouse) structures.
2. Material samples of buildings.
3. Updates on any PUD language revisions
4. Update on landscape plan and engineering approvals.
5. Traffic study
6. Petitioner has not responded to the Engineering comments made in the Feb. 15th TAC review
letter.
7. Note that the petitioner must commit to required upgrades to Westfield Blvd, 98th Street, and
99th Street along the project frontage. These upgrades can be constructed or funded (for
future construction). The petitioner is required to coordinate with City Engineering to
determine these improvements (or cost thereof), and commit to construction or funding prior
to approval. This commitment must be recorded.
The Department recommends that the Subdivision Committee continue the request to the May 4th
meeting to allow additional time for the petitioner to resolve all outstanding issues.
