Explanation
Pulte Homes of Indiana, LLC is the contract purchaser of the residential community
known as Cherry Creek Estates. Cherry Creek is compromised of 272 home sites on
approximately 149.5 acres. The community is located on the east side of Hazel Dell
Parkway, south of 146th Street.
Pulte is requesting a development standards variance with respect to its model homes
located on Lots 1,2 and 3 within this community. The temporary sales office is located
within the model home on Lot 3, for which Pulte is also requesting a development
standards variance. Pulte is requesting the temporary use permits for the models and
sales office be extended an additional two (2) years from their May 29, 2007 expiration
date. Section 26.16.02 of the City of Carmel Zoning Ordinance allows for the duration of
temporary use permits regarding model homes and temporary sales offices to be three (3)
years.
History
Lots 1 and 2 were originally granted temporary use permits on June 7, 2004 for 17
months. An 18 month extension was granted on November 29,2005. These permits
expire on May 29, 2007.
Lot 3 was originally granted a temporary use permit on July 21, 2004 for 16 months. An
18 month extension was granted on November 29,2005 until May 29,2007.
Pulte utilized a sales trailer on Lot 4 until last year. The BZA granted Pulte a two (2)
year extension for the temporary sales office on June 26, 2006 under docket number
06050010 UV. The extension was to expire on June 26, 2008. Rather than exercising
this option, Pulte obtained permission and the necessary building permits from the City of
Carmel to move the temporary sales center to the model home located on Lot 3. Pulte
was advised by the City of Carmel that the temporary sales office permit would also
expire on May 29, 2007.
Summary
The temporary use permits for model homes located on Lots 1,2 and 3 will expire on
May 29, 2007. The temporary sales office permit for lot 3 will also expire on May 29,
2007. Pulte is requesting a development standards variance from Section 2.16.02 of the
Zoning Ordinance, which allows the duration of temporary use model and sales office
permits to be three (3) years. If granted, the temporary use permits would expire on May
29,2009.
