APPLICATION FOR BOARD OF ZONING APPEALS ACTION
SPECIAL USE APPROVAL REQUEST
7. State Explanation of Requested Special:
Carmel Clay Schools wishes to make additions, totaling 173,000 square feet, to the existing
Carmel High School building and campus in order to support .a Freshman Center on the
school campus. The additions will support an additional 1,200 ninth grade students. This
will provide additional capacity within the existing High School for grades 1 0 through 12.
These additions will support the anticipated student growth based on the recent demographic
projections. .
8. The continued growth of Carmel and Clay Township continues to increase the student
population served by Carmel Clay Schools. Projections have indicated that the existing
Carmel High School would no.t support the increased student enrollment by 2005. Through a
series of public hearings and steering committees, a recommendation was presented to the
Carmel Clay School Board of Education to construct a Freshman Center on the existing
High School site in order to accommodate the projected enrollment capacity and maintain a
single high school for the community. The Freshman Center concept was also
recommended to prOVide a smaller more self-contained educational environment for the
freshman students transitioning from junior high school to high school.
After further studies by the Administration, staff, and design professionals the Freshman
Center' became two additions to the existing High School facility, incorporating the
self-contained environment concept while still allowing easy utilization of the facilities within
the existing high school as needed by students.
Additional property has been purchased by Carmel CIEj.y Schools to facilitate the major
portion of the Freshman Center addition on the northwest side of the building. This
additional property provides space to reconfigure vehicular circulation, provide additional
parking, and provide a larger buffer between the school building and the adjacent residential
properties. This Project also proposes to eliminate the roadway connection between the
High School campus and the residential subdivision, Carmelwood. This will eliminate school
traffic within the adjacent neighborhood, a major concern of the adjacent property owners.
The new additions will blend into the existing architecture of Carmel High School and use
similar exterior materials. Some design elements will be modified to signify the difference
between the Freshman Center and the remainder of the building. The reconfigured roads
will help eliminate or reduce school vehicular traffic on the surrounding public roads. An
additional student drop-off location at the Freshman Center entrance will reduce the amount
of vehicles-waiting at the main entrance along Main Street. Other site modifications will allow
bus traffic to be split between the west side and north side of the campus. An enlarged
student walkway will allow students to walk from the student parking area north of
Smokey Row Road while keeping the vehicle drive open for bus and car traffic.

APPLICATION FOR BOARD OF ZONING APPEALS
DEVELOPMENT STANDARDS VARIANCE REQUEST
7. State explanation of requested Developmental Standards Variance: (State what you want to
do and city the section number(s) of the Carmel/Clay Zoning Ordinance which applies and/or
creates the need for this request).
Carmel Clay Schools would like to construct additions to the existing Carmel High School
where the height exceeds the ordinance requirement stated in Section 8.4 of the Carmel
Clay Zoning Ordinance - --:c -'-0.
8. State reasons supporting the Development Standards Variance:
The size of the proposed additions is based on the projected student enrollment anticipated
in the future for Carmel High School. The limitations of the Project site and desire to
maintain a compact floor plan for the building additions requires a multi-story building for the
main building addition. The height of the major portion of this addition is 44 feet - 0 inches,
with a mechanical enclosure extending to 57 feet - 0 inches. This three-story addition is
similar in height to the three-story portion of the existing building on the west side of the
Carmel High School. The height of this existing portion of the building is 48 feet. The
proposed addition will not be the highest building element on the high school campus. The
highest building point is at the existing auditorium fly loft, approximately 66 feet above grade.
The east building addition is both slightly above and lower in portions than the existing
building at that location, approximately 24 feet - 6 inches. The height is required due to the
music performance spac.es located within the addition. These heights are needed to
maintain the acoustical performance desired in the music spaces.

DEVELOPMENT STANDARDS VARIANCE REQUEST
7. State explanation of requested Developmental Standards Variance: (State what you
want to do and city the section number(s) of the Carmel/Clay Zoning Ordinance which
applies and/or creates the need for this request).
.Carmel Clay Schools would like to incorporate three institutional si ns into the proposed
Freshman Center Project and on the Carmel High c 00 campus. The 'three
institutional signs would include two wall-mounted signs and one ground sign. The total
number of signs would exceed the requirements of Section 25.7.02-5 of the Carmel/Clay
Zoning Ordinance.
Existing institutional signs approved by a previous variance request will remain in the
current locations. One of the existing signs will be relocated to the new northwest
entrance of the Freshman Center.
8. State reasons supporting the Development Standards Variance:
The Freshman Center portion of this Project will include its own main entrance and
requires identification within the larger building complex, The basic concept of creating
the Freshman Center on the high school site was to maintain an identity on the campus.
The design of the building assists in that regard, but the signage proposed for this
Project is also an important element of this separate identity concept.
A wall sign made up of individual letters indicating "Freshman Center" is proposed on the
west fa9ade of the Freshman Center to identify this area in a manner similar to other.
portions of the high school campus that have wall signs. The addition of this sign would
be consistent with the existing signage on the building and campus.
A ground sign with changeable copy is also proposed to further provide identification to
the Freshman Center area and provide a place to announce events to patrons and
visitors. This is critical to again help separate and give identity to the Freshman Center.
This ground sign is similar to the existing sign along Main Street where events planned
for Carmel High School can be noted.
A wall sign is also proposed for the new ticket building at the soccer stadium. This wall
sign made up of individual letters indicates "Brian Murray Stadium". This sign is needed
to identify another feature of the high school campus that attracts patrons and visitors. It
further identifies an important figure to Carmel High School who has been honored with
the naming of the soccer facility.
All signs are needed to identify specific parts of a large campus and building. The signs
will assist patrons and visitors attending functions at the school to find those areas and
enter at the appropriate locations. Patrons and visitors are only allowed to access the
building at specific locations for security reasons, and the signage further identifies those
areas to avoid confusion and potential security concerns.

DEVELOPMENT STANDARDS VARIANCE REQUEST
7. State explanation of requested Developmental Standards Variance: (State what you want to
do and city the section number(s) of the Carmel/Clay Zoning Ordinance which applies and/or
creates the need for this request).
Carmel Clay Schools would like to construct 8...9Jound siqn that exceeds the height and
changeable copy area requirements of Section 25.7.02-5 of the Carmel/Clay Zoning
Ordinance.
..,)
8. State reasons supporting the Development Standards Variance:
The proposed ground sign height and changeable copy area is required to provide
appropriate space to identify the Freshman Center and announce and inform patrons of
events scheduled at the Freshman Center. The proposed size is consistent with the existing
ground 'sign along Main Street at Carmel High School, and other ground signs proposed for
Carmel Clay School building's.
The changeable copy area size will allow the announcements to be legible by vehicles
traveling along the interior circulation routes. The changeable copy area proposed is
24 square feet in lieu of the required 16 square feet. The overall size.of the sign does not
exceed the overall size allowed for a combination of institutional sign and changeable copy
signage.
The larger changeable copy area and letter size required for the sign pushes the overall
height to 6 feet - 2 inches or 1 foot - 2 inches above the maximum ground sign height
requirement.
Carmel Clay SchQols feels it is important for the identity of the Freshman Center to have this
ground sign to signify a different area of the campus and identify specific events planned for
this area. .

7. State explanation of requested Developmental Standards Variance: (State what you want to
do and city the' section number(s) of the Carmel/Clay Zoning Ordinance which applies and/or
creates the need for this request).
Carmel Clay Schools would like to construct traffic directional signage at three locations,
Signs A, B, and C, in excess of the size limitations required by Section 25.7.01-2 of the
Carmel Clay Zoning Orainance=. --"-"
8. State reasons supporting the Development Standards Variance:
The size of the directional traffic signage is required to provide legible information to direct
patrons, visitors, buses and service vehicles to the appropriate locations on the Project site.
With the size of the Project site and the existing building, the directional signage is extremely
critical in directing vehicular traffic to the proper location to avoid potential conflicts between
different vehicles. The directional traffic signage proposed is within the size parameters of
existing directional signage on the Carmel High School campus.

CARMEL/CLAY BOARD OF ZONING APPEALS
CARMEL, INDIANA
FINDINGS OF FACT - DEVELOPMENTAL STANDARDS.VARIANCE
1. The approval of this variance will not be injurious to the public health, safety, morals and
general welfare of the community because:
The additional signs will help' identify the various specific areas of the. Freshman Center
and Carmel High School. The multiple ,sigAl;; -will help ensure that patrons and visitors
enter at the proper location and avoid confusion and potential security concerns.
2. The use and value of the area adjacent to the property included in the variance wiU not
be affected in a substantially adverse manner because:
The institutional and wall signs will be similar to the signage already instaUed at Carmel
High School. 'The proposed signs are lettering withoutspecific'designs or s'peciallighting
effects. These signs would not adversely affect adjacent properties.
3. The strict appiicationof the terms of the Zoning Ordinance to the property Will result in
practical difficulties in the use cif the property because:
Without the additionalsignage, areas of the building would not be id.entifiable for patrons
or visitors approaching the building. A building of this size and scope requires areas and
entrances to be identifiable from the exterior. The signs will allow users to find parking
area near the entrance ,they desire, and to avoid traveiing through the building to reach
specific areas. The various signs will also assist building administration with security
issues by directing patrons and visitors to specific entrances that can be supervised. All
other entrances are typically inaccessible from the exterior in an educational facility,
Previous approved varianc~s for the Carmel High School campus have supported these
issues and ailowed muitiple institutionai signage to be erected on the campus.

CARMEL/CLAY BOARD'OF ZONING APPEALS
CARMEL, INDIANA
FINDINGS OF FACT - DEVELOPMENTAL STANDARDS VARIANCE
1. The approval of this variance will not be injurious to the public health, safety, morals and
, general welfare of the community because:
The size ofthe signage is appropriate for the overall size of the site, and is similar to existing
signs on the Carmel High School campus. The ground sign is not located in an area where it
will block anysightlines for traffic purposes,
2. The use and value of the area adjacent to the property included in the variance will not be
affected in a substa,ntially adverse manner because:
The signage is similar in size to existing signs on the Carmel High School property, and will
not affect adjacent properties., The sign materials will be' consistent with the proposed
additions to Carmel High School, and other signs on the campus,
3. The strict application of the terms of the Zoning Ordinance to the property will result in
practical difficulties in the use of the property because:
The size limitations for the ground sign would prohibit signage in a size that would be clearly
legible frOm passing vehicle$, The vast majority of patrons and visitors will be seeing this
type of sign from their vehicle. It is also typical oLa school this size to hold multiple 'events, '
and those events require places for announcements, Information to facility patrons and
visitors would be limited due to the strict application of the size limitations.

APPLICATION FOR BOARD OF ZONING APPEALS
DEVELOPMENT STANDARDS VARIANCE REQUEST
7. ' State explanation of requested Developmental Standards Variance: (State what you ~
want to do and city the section number(s) of the CarmelfClay Zoning Ordinance which
applies andfor creates the need for this request).
Carmel Clay Schools would like to incorporate three institutional signs into the proposed
Freshman Center Project and on the Carmel High School campus. Thethree
institutional signs would include two wall-mounted signs and one ground sign. The total
number of signs would exceed the requirements of Section 25.7.02-5 'of the Carmel/Clay
Zoning Ordinance.
Existing institutional signs approved by a previous variance request will remaih in the
current locations. One of the existing signs will be relocated to the new northwest
entrance of the Freshman Center.
8. State reasons supporting the Development Standards Variance:
The Freshman Center portion of this Projec;t will include its own main entrance and
requires identification within the larger building complex. The basic concept of creating
the Freshman Center on the high school site was to maintain an identity on the campus,
'The design of the building assists in that regard, but the signage proposed for this
Project is also an important element of this separate identity concept.
A wall sign made up ofindividua! letters indicating "Freshman Center" is proposed on the
west fayade of the Freshman Center to identify this area in a manner similar to other
portions of the high school campus that have wall signs. The addition of this sign would
be consistent with the existing signage on the building and c:ampus.
A ,ground sign with changeable copy is' also proposed to fU,rther provide identification to
the Freshman Center area and provide ? place to announce events to' patrons and
visitors. This is critical to again help separate and give identity to the Freshman Center.
This ground sign is similar to the existing sign along Main Street where events planned
for Carmel High School can be noted.
A wall sign is also proposed for the new ticket building at the soccer stadium. This wall
sign made up orind/vidual letters indicates "Brian Murray Stadium". This sign is needed
to identify another feature of the high school oampus that attracts patrons and visitors. It
further identifies an important figure to Carmel High School who has been honored with
the naming of the soccer facility,
All signs are needed to identify specific parts of a large campus and building. The signs
will assist patrons and visitors a'ttending functions at the school to find those areas and
enter at the appropriate locations. Patrons and visitors are only allowed to access the
building at specific locations for security reasons, and the signage further identifies those
areas to avoid confusion and potential security concerns,

DEVELOPMENT STANDARDS VARIANCE REQUEST
7. State explanation of requested Developmental Standards Variance:. (State what you want to
do and city the section number(s) of the Carmel/Clay Zoning Ordinance which applies and/or
creates the need for this request).
Carmel Clay Schools would like to construct a ground sign that exceeds the height and
.changeable copy area requirements of Section 25.7.02-5 of the Carmel/Clay Zoning
Ordinance.
8. . State reasons supporting the Development Standards Variance:
The proposed ground sign height and changeable copy area is required to provide
appropriate space to identify the Freshman Center and announce and inform patrons of
events scheduled at the Freshman Center. The proposed size is consistent with the existing
ground sign along Main Street at Carme.1 High School, and other ground signs proposed for
Carmel Clay School buildings.
The changeable copy area size will allow the announcements to be legible by vehicles
traveling along the interior circulation routes. The changeable copy area proposed is
24 square feet in lieu of the required 16 square feet. The overall size of the sign does not
exceed the overall size allowed for a combination of institutional sign and changeable copy
Slgnage.
The largei changeable copy aiea and letter size required for the sign pushes the overall
height to 6 feet - 2 inches or 1 foot - 2 inches above the maximum ground sign height
requirement
Carmel Clay Schqols feels it is important for the identity of the Freshman Center to have this
ground sign to signify a different area of the campus and identify specific events planned for
. this area.

CARMEL, INDIANA
FINDIN"GS OF FACT - DEVELOPMENTAL STANDARDS VARIANCE
1. The approval of thls variance will not be injurious to .the public health, safety, morals and
general welfare of the commu"nity because:
The overall building heights are dictated by the required size of the additions to support the
increased student population and the functions included within the additions. Keeping the
building additions compact and near the existing building will minimize the visual impact of
the addition on adjacent properties.
The proposed additions are also similar in height to other portions of the existing building and
will be below the highest portion of the existing building.
2. The use and value of the area adjacent to the property included" in the variance wlll not be
affected in a substantially adverse manner because:
The main building additions along the northwest remain approximately 280 feet from
adjacent properties at the. closest point. This is a greater distance than the current
configuration. Currently, there is an area betwe~n 190 and 260 feet from the existing
building to adjacent properties. This separation will help minimize the visual impact of the
three-story addition., . The height. of the building will improve visual screening and sound
screening of roof-mounted mechanical equipment currently open to the adjacent properties.
3. The strict application of the terms of the Zoning Ordinance to the property will result in
practical difficulties in the use of the property because:
The strict application of the Zoning Ordinance would gieatly increase the building footprint
supporting a student capacity desired for this Project. This increase in building footprint
would not fit within the property owned by Carmel Clay Schools. The strict application of the
Zoning Ordinance would also (educe functionality of some spaces in tile building program.

DEVELOPMENT STANDARDS VARIANCE REQUEST
7. State explanation of requested Developmental Standards Variance: (State what you want to
do and city the section number(s) of the Carmel/Clay Zoning Ordinance which applie~ and/or
creates the need for this request).
Carmel Clay Schools would like to construct additions to the .existing Carmel High School
where the height exceeds the ordinance requirement stated in Section 8.4 of the Carmel
Clay Zoning Ordinance
8. State reasons supporting the Development Standards Variance:
The size of the proposed additions is based on the projected student enrollment anticipated
in the future for Carmel High School. The limitations of the Project site and desire to
maintain a compact floor plan for the building additions requires a multi-story bUilding for the
main building addition. The height of the major portion of this addition is 44 feet - 0 inches,
with a mechanical e"nclosure e~tending to 57 feet - 0 inches. This three-story addition is
similar in height to the three-story portion of the existing Duilding on the west side of the
Carmel High School. The height of this existing portion of the building is 48 feet. The
proposed addition will not be the highest building element on the high school campus. The
highest building point is at the existing auditorium fly loft; approximately 66 feet above grade.
The east building addition is both slightly above and lower in portions than the existing
building at that location, approximately 24 feet - 6 inches. The height is required due to the
music performance spaces located \Jvithtn the addition. These heights are needed to
maintain the acoustical performance desired in the music spaces.

'':''~lJJ1:,;.>''-'
Following is a summary of issues discussed and items committed to by Carmel Clay Schools during
the February 24, 2003 Board of Zoning Appeals meeting. These items will be incorporated into the
plans for the Freshman Center and can be made a condition of approval if required.
- ,
G The Andich Property at 120 Sylvan Lane recently purchased by Carmel Clay Schools will
remain a residential property.
" The proposed plan provides improvements to the student walkway along the north road and
tne circular drop-off at the north entrance. These improvements will allow bus traffic to enter
the site from Smokey Row Road. This will eliminate the current bus loading on Main Street.
Additional bus drop-off will occur at the north circular drive.
" Carmel Clay Schools and the construction team will review small trees not identified in the
survey after the layout of the site improvements has been completed. An attempt will be
made to save as many smaller trees as possible or adjust the layout as needed to save
some additional existing trees. Staff from the Department of Development could participate
in this review during construction if desired.
o The parking located along the curve of the new interior drive along the northwest side in the
proposed plan will be eliminated.
. Preliminary plans have been developed for an additional parking lot northeast of the building.
This parking lot would support and additional 152 spaces. These parking spaces are above
those required by the zoning ordinance when all of the parking available on the campus is
considered. The additiOnal spaces are also not required during the school day to
accommodate staff and students permitted to park adjacent to the school. This additional lot
would provide additional parking only for event activities at the High School. Carmel Clay
Schools would like to have the option to work with the Department of Development staff in
determining the requirement and timing of this additional parking.

EMERGENCY PREPAREDNESS PLAN
CARMEL HIGH SCHOOL
Developed 1999 - 2000
Developed by Carmel Clay Schools and Carmel High School with assistance from
Carmel Police and Fire Departments
Plan provided to each staff member and included in each classroom
Plan provides general guidelines for numerous emergency scenarios requiring both
evacuation and remaining within the building.
Each classroom teacher is responsible to supervise the evacuation of their class and
students following the emergency evacuation routes from the building.
Once outside the building the plan instructs classes to walk clear of the building leaving
driveways open for emergency vehicles. The class or group must be kept together and
attendance is taken. Complete evacuation of the building occurs in approximately 4-5
minutes.
Safety Zones within the building have been established if it is acceptable to return to the
building.
There is a designated evacuation site if the situation requires this portion of the plan to
be placed in affect. Other potential evacuation sites have also been established by
Carmel Clay Schools.
Carmel Fire Department will go to the main fire alarm panel location initially to
determine location of fire hazard and communicate with school administration. From
this location the remaining fire vehicles will be directed to the specific fire hazard
location and utilize the nearest fire hydrant and fire department connection.
Carmel Clay Schools Safety Officers will assist in directing traffic during an emergency
and maintaining emergency access.
If access is needed at the bus drop-off area, radio communication is available between
the buses and the administration to clear the bus area.

Director of Facilities & Transportation
Carmel-Clay Schools
FROM:
Matt Brown, P.E. /';l,~.:f
A&F Engineering Co., LLC
RE:
Carmel High School Freshmen Wing
INTRODUCTION & SCOPE
A&F Engineering has conducted a Trame Operations and Traffic Flow Study at Carmel High
School. The purpose of this study was to identify travel patterns as they exist today and to
develop and reconunend travel patterns that could be used when a proposed freshman wing is
added to the existing high schooL The recommended travel pattems are developed in order to
improve the traffic flow in and around the high school in conjunction with the opening of the
new wmg.
DESCRIPTION OF FUTURE EXPANSION
A freshman wing is being planned by the Carmel-Clay School Administration. This wing would
house all existing and all future freshman attending Carmel High School. Approximately 960
freshman students are currently enrolled at the high school with approximately 240 more to be
added over the next ten years. In order to accommodate the new wing, changes will be made to
the internal roadway system and to the existing parking lot layout. Figure 1 shows the existing
school layout and the future school layout after the expansion is added.
FIELD REVIEW
A field review was conducted around and within the Carnlel High School site during the
morning and afternoon peak hours ofthe school. As parL of the review, entering and exiting
traffic flows were noted for all vehicles. In addition, all traffic control devices were documented
and their effect on traffic movement was noLed. Finally, pedestrian movement into and out of the
site was observed.
"DATi\. COLLECTION
Manual peak hour turning movement traffic volumes counts were collected by A&F Engineering
during a typical school day during the hours of 6:45 AM to 8:00 AM and from 2:30 PM to 4:00
PM. These counts were collected at the following locations:
1. Main Street and 4lh Avenue
2. Main Street and the High School Center Drive
3. Main Street and the High School East Drive
u
u
The traffic volume counts included all passenger vehicles, buses and conunercial vehicles that
passed through the three data collection locations during the study hours. .Figure 2 summarizes
the peak hour traffic volumes at each location. In addition to the traffic volume counts, special
notice was given to traffic queuing due to afternoon pick-up traffic at the front of the school.
PEAK TIME PERIODS
Cannel High School is in session from 7:50 AM to 3:05 PM Monday through Friday. Therefore,
morning drop-offtraffi.c is greatest from 7:00 AM to 8:00 AM and afternoon pick-up traffic is
greatest between 3:00 PM and 4:00 PM. Physical traffic control barriers, traffic cones and
m<illual traffic control are used from 7:15 AM to 7:50 AM and from 3:05 PM to 3:40 PM to
direct traffic entering and exiting the high school.
EXISTING TRAFFIC FLOW ANALYSIS
Based on the traffic data collection and the field review, the existing traffic patterns and the
existing traffic control devices were graphically iJlustrdted in order to develop a simplistic
snapshot of the existing traffic patlcms. Figure 3 and Figure 4 show the existing traffic flows
and the existing traffic control devices used during the AM and PM peak time periods.
PROPOSED TRAFFIC FLOWS
When the proposed freshman wing is opened, traffic destinations will change due to the fact that
many freshman students are dropped off in the morning and picked-up in the aftemoon.
Currently, most of these drop-offs and pick-ups are done in front of the school off of Main
Street. However, the new wing will create a greater demand near the rear of the site. Thus,
future traffic flows need to be developed to accommodate these new traffic destinations within
the site. The proposed new traffic flow patterns and the resulting traffic control
recommendations are illustrated on Figure 5 andl<'igure 6.

U
FUTURE TRAFFIC FLOW IMPROVEMENTS
When the proposed freshman wing is opened, the traffic patterns and traffic control methods
recommended in this study should be implemented. The following is a summary of the potential
traffic flow improvements that will occur due to these recommendations:
u
. A number of busses currently park on Main Street during the PM peak time period.
When the proposed expansion is constructed, the rear parking area will be used to store
these busses. Therefore, bus parking will be eliminated on Main Street.
.. A significant number of pick-up vehicles queue in front of the school during the PM peak
hour while they wait for school to let out. At times, these queues can back up onto Main
Street. Due to the fact that a significant number of pick-ups are for freshman students,
these pick up trips will be diverted to the rear of the building when the expansion is
constructed. Thus, queuing onto Main Street from the front of the building is less likely
to occur.
e As part of the future expansion, the sidewalk that runs from the northern parking lot to
1361h Street will be widened and a barrier wall will be constructed between the roadway
and the sidewalk. This barrier wall will discourage the use of the roadway by students
walking to and from the school during the morning and afternoon peak times. The
separation of pedestrian flows from traffic flows will increase safety along this roadway.
. The northern roadway that connects the northern parking lot to 1361h Street/Smokey Row
Road is currently closed to vehicular traffic from 3:05 PM to 3:40 PM. This roadway is
closed because students typically use the roadway to walk from the school to the stadium
parking lot. The constmction ofthe barrier wall (discussed above) will separate
pedestrian and vehicular traffic. Therefore, this roadway will be opened during the PM
peak time once the expansion is completed. Opening this roadway for two way traffic
during the AM and PM peak hours will reduce the amount of vehicles accessing the front
ofthe building for pick-ups and drop-offs.
. A portion of an existing parking lot will be eliminated when the freshman wing is
constructed. However, a new parking lot will be constructed just west of the proposed
wing. The addition ofthis parking lot will ensure that future parking capacity will be
greater than the existing parking capacity.

CARMEL/CLAY BOARD OF ZONING APPEALS
CARMEL, INDIANA
FINDINGS OF FACT - SPECIAL USE
1. The Special Use in Flood Plain District, Ordinance Z-160, Section 21.6 as amended does
not apply and all prerequisites have been met by the Petitioner as verified:
The site does not faU within a Flood Plain District per the survey of the existing property
performed for this Project and survey information completed for past projects on this site.
2. The Special Use will be consistent with the Character and Permitted Land Use of the zoning
district and Carmel/Clay Comprehensive Plan because:
The Project site is the existing Carmel High School and the proposed Project maintains the
same function of that site. A school of secondary education is a Special Use permitted within
a R-2 zoning district per the Carmel/Clay Zoning Ordinance.
3. The Special Use is physically suitable for the land in questlon because:
The proposed additions fall within the existing property limits of Carmel High School.
However, additional land has been purchased to expand the Carmel High School property
limits. This additional land will provide space for additional improvements and a buffer to the
adjacent residential property. The proposed building additions are consistent with the
existing building and no dangerous site conditions are created by the proposed Project.
4. The Special Use will not injuriously or adversely affect the adjacent land or property values
because: .
The proposed Project will maintain the existing site function in place for a number of years.
The proposed Project eliminates the traffic concerns that would negatively affect adjacent
properties to the northwest. As vehicular traffic will increase in the future, better vehicular
circulation throughout the Project site and optional routes for buses and vehicles should
benefit surrounding streets, residential, and commercial property, Buffer space, landscape
buffering, and fencing will be maintained between the proposed improvements and adjacent
properties to the northwest to. help shield and protect those properties from the movements
and views to the High School campus.
5. .Tbe Special Use will not adversely affect vehicular or pedestrian traffic flow, nor the
adequate availability of water, sewage, or storm drainage facilities or police and fire
protection because:
. As stated previously, with the residential property purchase and disconnection of the High
School drives from Audubon Drive and Sylvan Lane to the northwest, a major traffic issue for
the adjacent neighborhood has been eliminated. The elimination of this traffic reduces
dangerous situations noted by adjacent property owners. The continuation of the vehicular
circulation around the entire High School building and proposed additions with the
reconfigured drives maintains a vehicular pattern similar to the existing circulation. A new
student drop-off area at the Freshman Center will remove some traffic from the main
entrance and Main Street during the morning and afternoon drop-off periods. With the
reconfigured north bus drop-off area, additional bus traffic can enter the site from Smokey
Row Road reducing bus traffic on the west side of the site and 4th Avenue.
u
u
New walkways along the recoilfigured drive northwest of the proposed addition will maintain
pedestrian access around the building and from the adjacent neighborhood. The new
walkways provide direct pedestrian access to Main Street and adjacent public buildings.
The existing water service on the Project site will support the new additions with some minor
modifications and rerouting of the service lines to the proposed additions.
Sanitary sewers for the proposed Project will connect to new sanitary sewer mains being
jointly construction by the City of Carmel and Carmel Clay Schools. The increased sanitary
sewer load will be handled by the new the sanitary sewer piping. The Project will not
adversely impact existing sanitary sewer lines serving the property.
Storm sewer facilities will be constructed as part of the proposed improvements. A new
detention area will be created to detain the increased run-off from the hard surface areas.
The existing storm sewer system will continue to handle the existing site and'the various
miscellaneous improvements planned for the Project.
Coordination with the City of Carmel Fire Department has occurred. No major issues
impacting the ability of the Fire Department to serve Carmel High School and the Project
have been noted. An emergency access point connecting.,the new drive on the High School
property with the reconnected Sylvan Lane and Audubon Drive will provide emergency
access to the adjacent neighborhood from the south for both fire and police emergencies.
6. The Board has reviewed the requiremerits of Ordinance 2-160, Section 21.3 (1-25), as they
relate to this Special Use, and does not find those criteria prevent the granting of the Special
Use:
The criteria has been reviewed and the Special Use request applies with the criteria.

u
CARMEL/CLAY BOARD OF ZONING APPEALS
CARMEL, INDIANA
FINDINGS OF FACT - DEVELOPMENTAL STANDARDS VARIANCE
1. The approval of this variance will not be injurious to the public health, safety, morals and
general welfare of the community because:
The overall building heights are dictated by the required size of the additions to support the
increased student population and the functions included within the additions. Keeping the
building additions compact and near the existing building will minimize the visual impact of
the addition on adjacent properties.
The proposed additions are also similar in height to other portions of the existing building and
will be below the highest portion of the-existing building.
2. The use and value of the area adjacent to the property included in the variance will not be
affected in a substantially adverse manner because:
The main building additions along the northwest remain approximately 280 feet from
adjacent properties at the closest point. This is a greater distance than the current
configuration. Currently, there is an area between 190 and 260 feet from the existing
building to adjacent properties. This separation will help minimize the visual impact of the
three-story addition. The height of the building will improve visui31 screening and sound
screening of roof-mounted mechanical equipment currently open to the adjacent properties.
3. The strict application of the terms of the Zoning Ordinance to the property will result in
practical difficulties in the use of the property because:
The strict application of the Zoning Ordinance would greatly increase the building footprint
supporting a student capacity desired for this Project. This increase in building footprint
would not fit within the property owned by Carmel Clay Schools. The strict application of the
Zoning Ordinance would also reduce functionality of some spaces in the building program.

CARMEUCLAY BOARD OF ZONING APPEALS
CARMEL, INDIANA
FINDINGS OF FACT - DEVELOPMENTAL STANDARDS VARIANCE
1. The approval of this variance will not be injurious to the public health, safety, morals and
general welfare of the community because:
The additional signs will help identify the various specific areas of the Freshman Center
and Carmel High School. The multiple signs will help ensure that patrons and visitors
enter at the proper location and avoid confusion and potential security concerns.
2. The use and value of the area adjacent to the property included in the variance wil) not
be affected in a substantially adverse manner because:
The institutional and wall signs will be similar to the signage already installed at Carmel
High School. 'The proposed signs are lettering without specific designs or special lighting
effects. These signs would not adversely affect adjacent properties.
3. The strict application of the terms of the Zoning Ordinance to the property will result in
practical difficulties in the use of the property because:
Without the additional signage, areas of the building would not be identifiable for patrons
or visitors approaching the building. A building of this size and scope requires areas and
entrances to be identifiable from the exterior. The signs will allow users to find parking
area near the entrance they desire, and to avoid traveling through the building to reach
specific areas. The various signs will also assist building administration with security
issues by directing patrons and visitors to specific entrances that can be supervised. All
other entrances are typically inaccessible from the exterior in an educational facility,
Previous approved variances for the Carmel High School campus have supported these
issues and allowed multiple institutional signage to be erected on the campus.

CARMEL/CLAY BOARD OF ZONING APPEALS
CARMEL, INDIANA
FINDINGS OF FACT - DEVELOPMENTAL STANDARDS VARIANCE
1. The approval of this variance will not be ihjurious to the public health, safety, morals and
general welfare of the community because:
The size ofthe signage is appropriate'for the overall size of the site, and is similar to existing
signs on the Carmel High School campus. The ground sign is not ioeated in an area where it
will block any sightlines for traffic purposes.
2. The use and value of the area adjacent to the property included in the variance will not be
affected in a substantially adverse manner because:
The signage is similar in size to existing signs on the Carmel High School property, and will
not affect adjacent properties. The sign materials will be consistent with the proposed
additions to Carmel High School, and other signs on the campus.
3. The strict application of the terms of the Zoning Ordinance to the property will result in
practical difficulties in the use of the property because:
The size limitations for the ground sign would prohibit signage in a size that would be clearly
legible from passing vehicles. The vast majority of patrons and visitors will be seeing this
type of sign from their vehicle. It is also typical of a school this size to hold multiple events,
and those events require places for announcements. Information to facility patrons and
visitors would be limited due to the strict application of the size limitations.

CARMEUCLAY BOARD OF ZONING APPEALS
CARMEL, INDIANA
FINDINGS OF FACT - DEVELOPMENTAL STANDARDS VARIANCE
1. The approval of this variance will not be injurious to the public health, safety, morals and
general welfare of the community because:
The size of the signage is appropriate for the overall size of the site, and is similar to existing
signs on the Carmel High School campus. The directional traffic signage needs to be legible
to provide important directional information for the community. This directional signage does
not have a negative impact on the community.
2. The use and value of the area adjacent to the property included in the variance will not be
affected in a substantially adverse manner because:
The signage is similar in size to existing signs on the Carmel High School property and will
not affect adjacent properties. The directional traffic signage provides only enough sp.ace for
the required information and does not have specific design that might be objectionable to the
adjacent properties. .
3. The strict application of the terms of the Zoning Ordinance to the property will result in
practical difficulties in the use of the property because:
The limited size of the traffic directional signage could create traffic problems as people
moving in vehicles attempt to read the signage. The legibility and information provided on
the directional traffic signage is needed to maintain proper vehicular circulation and avoid
potential safety conflicts between vehicles or vehicles and pedestrians.
