HomeMy WebLinkAboutDept Report 09-17-02 .. ~ CARMEL/CLAY PLAN COMMISSION DEPARTMENT REPORT September 17, 2002 lh. Docket No. 96-02 Z; Mohawk Place Rezone Petitioner seeks a favorable recommendation of a rezone from I-l/Industrial to C-lICity Center on 9.17 :l: acres. The site is located northwest of the intersection of City Center Drive and Range Line Road. The site is zoned I-l/Industrial. Filed by the Department of Community Services for the Carmel Redevelopment Commission. The proposed rezone will make the zoning of this property consistent with the C-lICity Center zoning of the property to the south. This rezone is requested in an effort to aid in the redevelopment of this property. (see Attached Draft Ordinance) As the Plan Commission will recall the Public Hearing for this item was opened at the August 20th meeting. At that time the owner of the property spoke and stated that he had no objection to the rezone. However, a letter from his attorney requested that the hearing be held open to the September 1 ih meeting date and the item was tabled. ~ individual has contacted us with a request for additional information regarding this rezone since prior to the hearing on August 20th. The Department requested that the Plan Commission members review the Ordinance sections regarding the existing I-I and C-l permitted uses and development standards. It is important to note that the existing I-I standards do not require ADLS or Development Plan review by the Commission regardless of the underlying development standards. It was suggested in comments from the public that existing businesses would be forced to close and leave. The Department noted and maintains that the rezoning of the property would not require any business to leave and would allow the transfer in ownership of property and the use or other nonconforming uses to occupy the subject property. The Department would ask that any person with additional questions regarding nonconforming uses please contact us to receive accurate information relating to how the rezoning of a property would affect its use. Rezones of this type are not new to the Plan Commission. The Commission has forwarded recommendations in the past on the initial C-l and C-2 zones, the Old Meridian zones, and the Old Town and Home Place Overlays all of which were designed to guide redevelopment within those areas. Dozens of businesses are located within these areas and continue to prosper. It is only upon, among other things, redevelopment of a site (reconstruction or expansion) that in this case the C-l development standards would apply to the subject property. The Department recommends redevelopment of the subj ect property, when it occurs, to be held to the C-l development standards, not to the I-I. Again, please take time to review the I-I and C-l standards. If there are no concerns raised by the public or comments from Plan Commission members that remain unresolved at the end of the discussion on the item, the Department would recommend that the Plan Commission suspend its rules and that this item be forwarded to the City Council, at the conclusion of the Public Hearing, with a favorable recommendation. ~ <: ~ ~ N ~ ~ ~ Z NO ~> ct:: .u \C..... ~u ~..;...,:,:,:.,:. :,' "<' }fo:(! ;t;~~~:.
