CARMEL PLAN COMMISSION
SPECIAL STUDIES COMMITTEE
DEPARTMENT REPORT
May 4, 2006
1. Docket No: 05120025 Z 126th & KeystonelGramercy PUD
The applicant seeks to rezone 116 acres from R2/Residential and R4/Residential to
PUD/Planned Unit Development for the purpose of creating a mixed use development
comprised of townhouse. apartment. retail. and office uses.
The site is located between Carmel Drive. 126th Street, Keystone Ave. and Auman Dr.
Filed by James Shinaver of Nelson & Frankenberger for Buckingham Properties Inc.
The applicant is requesting approval of a Planned Unit Development to allow the construction of a
mixed-use development comprised of a mix of townhouses. condominium flats, apartments. and
multi use structures. The project is a redevelopment of the existing Mohawk Hills Apartment
complex and golf course. Please refer to the draft ordinance and proposed site plan submitted for
full details.
This proposal is for the rezone of the property. All individual structures and detailed development
plans will be required to return to the Plan Commission for DP/ADLS review and approval.
However. all future detail plans will be held to the regulations of this proposed PUD ordinance.
This item was discussed at four meetings of the Special Studies Committee. Neighbors have
raised concerns with traffic circulation, site design. density. building height and location. and open
space. Working through this process, the committee members have tried to better transition this
project with its surrounding more effectively.
At the April 27th Special Studies meeting. the petitioner presented a revised PUD and exhibits. At
that meeting the committee worked through the use list. phasing plan. and the height and use
overlay maps. Revisions resulting from the comments made at the meeting are to be distributed at
this meeting.
The focus of this meeting is to be on the design and development standards. Time permitting; the
committee will touch base regarding the PUD revisions as noted above. Staff will provide updates
on Engineering and Urban Forestry reviews at this meeting as well.
The Department recommends that this item be continued to the Special Studies Committee
on June 6, 2006, for further discussion and review of revised elements and suggestions.
