Please place all remaining vegetation within a tree preservation easement
Per our email on 7/6/23, we would allow this lot to contribute $6,000 in lieu
of providing detention with the condition that you preserve as many of the
existing trees on the lots as possible. We would like all areas that are labeled
as "to remain" be placed within a tree preservation easement.

We provided 30 foot tree preservation easement. Per
the email from Darren Mindham on August 2, 2023,
"...the City Engineer... stated that he will allow this
project to contribute $6,000 to the City’s thoroughfare
fund in lieu of providing detention with the condition
that as many as possible of the existing trees on the lots
are preserved." The new larger floorplan with eliminate
some of the trees highlighted as "to remain" which are
not at the rear of the property and area also not at the
NW corner of the property, but are close enough to the
rear of the footprint of the house that they pose
imminent danger to people living in the home as well as
the house itself. More specifically, the second row of
trees that are roughly 70 feet east of the west boundary
line of the property will be removed.

If the project would like to install the entrance as shown,

Responded by: Mike Kinney - 5/9/24 3:28 PM
The drive was designed with radiuses, instead of tappers
shown on the drive detail. The proposed drive is to a
major thoroughfare . We believe the radiuses are a
more appropriate design for access to Hazel Dell given
the high traffic volume and design speed of Hazel Dell.
Also, we matched the drive configuration of the south
adjoiner existing house drive. We request the proposed
drive configuration to be approved.

Reviewer Response: Alexia Lopez - 5/15/24 5:51 PM
The 10 ft. asphalt path is a requirement per UDO Sec.
1.07.E. Transportation Plan and is not an optional
standard. If there is not enough right-of-way to build
the path, then I think you have a few options.
1. You can dedicate additional right-of-way to be able
to fit the path in. How much additional right-of-way
would you need to dedicate?
2. You could build the path and any portion that is not
in the right-of-way could be placed in a public
pedestrian easement.
3. UDO Sec. 1.07.E allows you to provide a monetary
commitment equal to the value to otherwise design and
construct the path. We would not recommend this
option as it would delay the installation of the path and

we are currently working with Carmel Clay Schools to
have them install path along their frontage to the north

paths installed and connected.
4. You may request a Development Standards Variance
from the Board of Zoning Appeals(BZA) and explain why
you think you have an unnecessary hardship at a public
hearing and see if BZA will grant your variance.
However, please note that we do not typically support

Per the email from Angie Conn on August 2, 2023, "This
section of Hazel Dell Pkwy is required to be a range of
68’ to 100’ wide street right of way (or a 34’ half to a 50’
half ROW). Your parcel has close to a 50-ft half ROW,
today. That being said, the most street right of way the
city can require is a 50-ft half right of way (or a 100-ft
total ROW). So, if you can show that your property line
today is located at least 50-ft from the centerline of
Hazel Dell Pkwy, then no additional street right of way
will be required to be dedicated to the city." **The
boundary survey shows the established centerline (Line
PR) of Hazel Dell. My engineer dimensioned from the
north and south corners the existing right-of-way to the
established centerline of Hazel Dell. Sheet 3 of the
survey shows the existing right-of-way at the north end
is greater than 50 feet, and therefore if the City is only
requiring 50 half width right-of-way dedication, no
right-of-way along the north end would be required.
The south end is less than 50 feet by around 3 feet. We
have included this half width right-of-way information
with the centerline on the survey to show the existing
right-of-way along most of the frontage is at or greater
than 50 feet. The south area will require some
additional right-of-way to meet the 50 foot half right-
of-way as indicated by Carmel that will need dedicated.
The secondary subdivision plat shows the proposed
right-of-way that would be parallel to and 50 feet from
the centerline of Hazel Dell. This produces a small
triangular size shape right-of-way take as shown on the
secondary plat at the southeast corner of the plat. A 10'
path will not fit within the 50' required right of way.

Drainage infrastructure will need to be installed in the rear of the lot to avoid
future drainage issues
Per the GIS contours, it appears that the rear of the lot will not be able to
drain properly to the drainage system to the south. The rear of this
subdivisions two lots will need to be graded to the south or an inlet and pipe
run should be installed to direct drainage to the receiving system. Please
show this on the next submittal.

Ashton Fritz (engineer) confirmed via email on 7/23/24,
"Attached (EX GRADES-Model.pdf) is an exhibit showing
the drainage patterns do in fact follow the requested
flow route as the western subject property line is higher
than the edge of the tree line inside the lot for most of
its length so there is a general flow south towards the
Avian Glen inlet within the subject property. The far
northwest corner is the only area that goes directly to
the swale to the west and that is undisturbed area that
already flows there. In essence the existing swale to the
west would see no different in flow until it reaches the
existing inlet at the southwest corner." Also see email
correspondence "Drainage Coorespondance.pdf" See

Responded by: Mike Kinney - 6/11/24 11:46 PM
Attached is an exhibit from the drainage report
provided. Per the existing watershed map and the
topography obtained for this project and site visit, there
is a swale that runs along the west boundary line (rear
lot lines) and a swale that runs along the south
boundary line of the overall tract. Both swales drain to
the southwest corner of the existing parcel to an
existing storm structure. Half the existing parcel drains
west to this west boundary line swale, while the other
half drain east to the storm inlets in Hazel Dell Road. No
new construction or grading is proposed for the existing
house, Lot 2. Lot 1 proposed building essentially keeps
the same drainage patterns, with half the lot draining
west to the existing swale, and the other half draining
easterly to Hazel Dell as under current conditions. Based
on this information, it is believed that no new storm
infrastructure is needed.

Due to the increase in the runoff to the west, we cannot permit the existing

Subject: Cherry Tree Farms - Plat & Plot Plan
Alex,
I hope you are doing well. We are working with Mike Kinney, the owner, of the Cherry Tree Farms subdivision and plot
plan for a new home along Hazel Dell Pkwy just south of Cherry Tree Elementary. He forwarded a comment to us that
he said was from you as noted below:
“2. Please place an inlet and pipe run connected to the City's curb inlet to collect the runoff Comment: Due to the
increase in the runoff to the west, we cannot permit the existing condition to be perpetuated without drainage facilities.
In lieu of what was requested in comment #34, we believe this can be resolved by installing an inlet and pipe

We have conducted some additional investigation on the existing inlet in Hazel Dell as well as the inlet south of the one
noted. The existing inlets are relatively shallow with depths of about 3’-3.5’. In order to place the requested inlet
onsite, it will need to be shifted east from the suggested location in order to provide the appropriate depth and slope
out to Hazel Dell’s inlet as shown in blue on the attached. As you can see, the existing grades slope from east to west
and the proposed inlet would not be able to capture much runoff unless a berm is constructed to the west and a large
area of the proposed home rear yard is filled in to slope back towards this new inlet. This will require a significant
number of trees that are currently planned to remain to be removed. Based on this information, it is my belief that
adding this inlet will be more damaging to the drainage patterns/systems than if it is not installed. The new home
runoff will traverse through grassed and wooded areas more than 120 feet before entering the existing swale along the
west boundary. The existing swale flows south to an inlet in Avian Glen that sits in a depressional area that is more
than 5 feet below any of the surrounding homes. The overall contributing drainage area to this swale is approximately
4 acres as shown below.
Calculating a rational method runoff within this swale using 10 minute time of concentration results in:
Q = C x I x A or 0.45 x 5.2 x 4.05 = 9.5 cfs , where C=0.45, residential < 12,000sf
Of this 4 acres of existing drainage shed, approximately 0.07 acres of grass/woods will become impervious surface for
the new home and sheet drain to the swale. This calculates to a potential runoff coefficient of (3.98 x 0.45 + 0.07 x
0.9) / 4.05 = 0.458.
The runoff from this is then: 0.458 x 5.2 x 4.05 = 9.6 cfs. This is a negligible change in total runoff to the swale.

Allowing the proposed home to follow existing drainage patterns by sheet flowing offsite into the adjoining swale to the
west does not appear to introduce concerning negative impacts to that system. We have not analyzed the existing
inlet in Hazel Dell to verify it would have capacity to handle the additional runoff that would be conveyed there if a new
inlet were to be added. However, it is apparent it will increase runoff to that inlet that does not currently flow there
potentially causing negative impacts to the overall road drainage system.
Please review the above and consider approval of the current plot plan without introduction of a new storm inlet onsite,
removal of existing trees planned to remain and creation of fill/berm to divert water to the drainage inlet.
Please consider the above and attached and let me know if you would like to discuss in more detail.
Thank you,

Mike,
I just need notification that the Planning and Zoning Dept. has approved the plat and you’ve submitted the mylars for the
director ’s signature. Once notified, I’ll place the plat on the next available BPW agenda. The BPW meets the first and third
Wednesday of each month with a filing deadline 1 week prior to each meeting.
Sincerely,
Caleb Warner

Hi Alexia,
I uploaded the final document (the Sanitary Lateral Exhibit) and completed all the remaining tasks with
comments. I also uploaded the final versions of all the files. Hopefully we can get these reviewed and
signed off on as soon as possible so we can proceed with the project and submit for permitting. Will I get
confirmation when all of the comments have been resolved in ProjectDox? Do you have a
recommendation of where I might print the Mylar copy? Is this something my engineer would typically
provide? After all the comments are resolved I will get the electronic version of the subdivision plat in
AutoCad sent over to Ms. Terry Krueskamp.
Thanks,
Mike

Hey Mike,
Also, don’t forget to upload revised plans and complete your task in ProjectDox by going to the Tasks tab
and opening the “Applicant Resubmit Task – Staff Review” and then following the instructions in that
task.
Thanks,
Alexia
