eight-foot (8') Multi-tenant Building Complex Directory
Present for Petitioner: Julie Christiansen, REI Investments, 11711 N. Pennsylvania, Carmel. At the last
Special Studies meeting adjustments were made. The sign was extended another six (6) inches and red
brick used to match the sign at Residence Inn. The entry road serves two (2) properties with boulevard-
type effect at the entry with landscape islands separating outgoing and incoming traffic. This technically
sets within the right-of-way.
Members of the public were invited to speak in favor of, or opposition to the petitions. No one appeared
and the public hearing was closed.
Mr. Lillig gave the Department report. These Items were also the subject of an ADLS Amendment
petition, Docket 73-02 ADLS Amend, before the Plan Commission. At the July 2, 2002, meeting, the
Special Studies Committee approved the petition with conditions regarding the design of the sign that
were outlined by Mrs. Christiansen. Docket V -95-02 requests an eight (8) foot sign and should be
amended in the record to request for a seven and one-half (7 Y2) foot Multi-tenant Building Complex
Directory Sign. Docket V -96-02 should be amended to request for an encroachment into the right-of-way,
rather than a reduction of the minimum setback. The Department is recommending favorable
consideration of these petitions with the following conditions: that the sign comply with the conditions of
Docket 73-02 ADLS Amend; that the Petitioner get consent to encroach approval from the Board of
Public Works and Safety; and the Petitioner submit commitments for removal of the sign should the City
ever require to do work in that segment of the right-of-way.
A picture of the area was viewed, showing existing buildings and location for the sign.
Mr. Weinkauf moved to approve V-93-02, Meridian Mark III, Lot 1. The motion was seconded by Mrs.
Rice and APPROVED 5-0.
Mr. Dierckman moved to approve, with conditions, V -94-02, Meridian Mark III, Lot 1. The motion was
seconded by Mrs. Rice.
Discussion followed regarding the height of the sign and the size of the letters. Mrs. Christiansen affirmed
the lettering would be adjusted and made proportionate to fit the 7 foot 6 inch sign.
The motion for V-94-02, Meridian Mark III, Lot 1 was APPROVED 5-0.
Mr. Dierckman moved to approve, with conditions and amendments, V-95-02, Meridian Mark III, Lot
1. The motion was seconded by Mrs. Rice and APPROVED 5-0.
Mr. Dierckman moved to approve, with conditions and amendments, V-96-02, Meridian Mark
