Bric,
I wanted to indicate my strong opposition to a large childcare center being built in JG Villages. The access
infrastructure off both 116 and Spring Mill are not conducive to the efficient and safe handling of the
significant additional traffic. This design will force additional traffic into our Jackson Grant residential
neighborhoods which will reduce our safety and the enjoyment of our properties. This change to the
previously approved use is not acceptable.
I understand that leaving the property barren is not an option and thus will accept the proposal to
construct additional townhouses.
Thanks for presenting Jan and my opinion on this subject at the appropriate time.

Jackson Grant Owners:
Your HOA Board is requesting you review the following information about JG Village, at the
corner of Spring Mill & 116th, currently under development. The Board intends to advise
City officials of your collective preference for proposed changes to the plan approved two
years ago. Please reply to this email by Feb 2nd.
As you know JG Village is not a part of our HOA. Since the project was approved, additional
th
land has become available for sale along 116 St. A prospective buyer of that land has
1
proposed to build a 10,000 sq ft daycare school, to accommodate 160 students, in the
middle of JG Village. This is a 50% increase in the commercial space previously
approved. They are also asking for an additional 60 parking spaces to support the school
and the adjacent retail buildings. If the daycare is not approved by the City, then the
developer, Republic and McKenzie, intend to build 18 more townhomes in JG Village on the
additional land.
Either outcome will add more traffic to the area, but the addition of a daycare school will
add more traffic that will be concentrated in the mornings and evenings when children are
dropped off and picked up . This concentration of traffic will adversely impact our
neighborhood because there will be no left-hand turns permitted out of JG Village. Cars
wanting to exit north on Spring Mill will most likely travel through our neighborhood using
Otto Lane and Jackson Grant Blvd to reach Spring Mill. Please see attached map.
Your HOA Board believes the adverse impact of traffic from a daycare school outweighs
the addition of more townhomes. Nevertheless, we want to hear from owners. What do
you think about the only two possible outcomes? Would you like to see more townhomes
added or would rather see a daycare school added to JG Village?

the Carmel Plan Commission and will ensure the emails he receives are forwarded to
the PC members accordingly. You may also send emails directly to the Carmel City
Councilors. Tony Green (green@carmel.in.gov) is our rep. on the City Council South
