Bryant: We have reviewed your response to our review letter #2 and your revised plans and offer the following additional comments: Regarding our review #2 and your comment letter dated July 8,2003, specine to comment numbers: Item #13. - The demo plan is acceptable. Regarding the maintenance of traffic plan, our Inspector has advised the contractor that he wants to see INTlOT standards utilized for this development. Therefore, I am enclosing a set of these standards to be incorporated into tbe plans. Item #18. and Item #52. - Have you discussed the Hazel Dell Parkway right of way dimensioning issue with the City Engineer? Is she agreeable to omitting this dimension from the plans? (C202) Item #59. - When will the stamped pattern information be presented for approval? Item #62. - Do you have the casting specification for this stmcrure in Hazel Dell Parkway? NEW COMMENTS I. Regarding the neckdO\vnlocations on Wildcat Drive, the original suggestion from the City Engineer was one either south of the inlets or prefened, just north, near Lots 10-11 and 19-20(as shO\vn on the current revision) and one north of this location, just south of the drive to the amenities area. Therefore, moving the neckdowll from Lots 13 -14 and 17-16 to just south of the drive to the amenities area will be lllore appropriate. 2. The pad elevation for Lot 26 is too low. Water ponding in the rear of the lot will overtop @ 772.5 which is also the pad elevation. This also applies to Lot 25. Please check every pad elevation to ensure that for stonns over the I O-year event (whieh is all the storm system can take), ,vater call1ot overlop betw'een the lots and no pad/lot or walk-out elevation wi II be endangered. Anywhere this overtopping occurs, the arrow -=> needs to be shown. Reference Lot 56. This lot should have a second arrow along the side of the lot 3. There are still not sufficient inlets/pipes to drain back of Lots 14, 15 and 67-70. The City Engineer is agreeable to the installation of private subsurface drains along these lots. Please mark these subsurface drains as private on the plans. 4. Clarify lake elevations and overtopping. The detail showing EMERGENCY FLOOD ROUTING shows elevations lower than noted on the Jakes. Make certain that these lakes hold up to the 100- year storm and only overtops for storms over the I DO-year event. DEPARTMENT OF ENG[\'EERING O:.iE C1V1C SQUARE, C\R'\[EL.

Please indicate the tie-in or connection to an existing inlet on the plans. 6. I believe that there "vas a request from DOCS to provide a turn around (hammerhead) at the termination of Cherry Tree at the southwest comer of the site and to provide proper signage to deter traffic from using it. Please indicate these items on the plans and provide appropriate construction details, including grading plans to accommodate this.

Since It is not possible to actually design a plan for actual locations of trees until the homes are selected for each lot, we have prepared a list of possible trees that can be used to satisfy this commitment. I have enclosed a copy of this list that I would like you to review. After you have reviewed and approved the list I will provide it to Pulte Homes to use when selecting plant material. As for size and location of the trees, we have added the following language to the Covenants and Restrictions: "...three (3) additional trees, conifers of eight feet (8') in height and/or deciduous of at least two inch (2") oaliper, must be installed after completion of each new home no closer to the front of the lot than the rear line of the house extended to each side lot line". After you have had an opportunity to review, please let me know if you have any additional items you would like to see covered.

Review demo and maintenance of traffic plan Development Plan 14. Don't see accelldecellane width dimensions. Please make NOTE referring to Entrance Plan Sheet larger or bold. 15. Ask Jon if this is correct (did \ve approve no curbing on inside? I think so, but I can't recall.) 16. Provide for median noses to have sufficient stationing, and/or distance beti-veen (plus center) on C200 and intersection sheets.) Same goes for stamped pavement area. (provide clear instruction such that the the contractor can stake these from plans.) 18. Please include RW dimensions, esp. on C200 and entrance detail sheets. 20. Include note to indicate what happens wi sidewalk connecting to? on N. side ofeheIT)' Creek Blvd. - W. side of ditch. How does it transition into existing or does it end. .. what exactly happens as far as "by developer?" When will paths be installed? 21. Lots may stin have problems with rear-to- front drainage if tree preservation easement and existing clev. have to be matched into proposed grades. (see notes on sheet) 24. This area needs to be identified (common area?) and/or noted as "future amenity area." ~Finish curbing of parking lot to street. -Any such separate plans for amenity area must be submitted for additional review prior to any construction (not just to BZA). 27. This type of cul-de-sac configuration may be problematic. Need to discuss how road, alignment, etc. will work safely. 28. Swale from high point west needs to continue todesignated outlet or structure. -Need to include pipe under sidewalk. 29. Due to extreme drops from side yard elevation to rear yard, please show property contours in rear of lots 19.28 for proper grading (or revise grading to suitable slopes). 30. Thought the bridge would provide for a minimum of 4-I2'lanes, or 48' wide. Scales less than this -Is the detail of guardrail included? Detail of crossing at bridge? Even if we arc not approving, plans for stmcrure should be included. Has county approved box culvert (sized for creek, etc?) Don't understand gabion basket designs (contours not right.). Will need detail of this structure to show if wing walLislope protection is needed. 31. Still need to add wording to legend and explanation ofMFPG. 32. Has all floodway shov,.TI been approved (as "revised"F (C201) 34. Please provide information on depth oflakes or bottom elevation DEPART,\IENT OF ENGINEERING ONE CIVIC SQUARE. CARMEL, IN 46032 OFFICE 3175712441, FAX 317571-2439 EMA[L kweesc@ci.carmcl.in.l1s u u -Is this a "conunon area" or D.D. easement, etc.? (C202) 43. No clear provisions for drainage for lots 67-70 was provided. Need storm inlets/pipes. 51. Please be aware of the strict policies of constructing entrance and path relocation in short time frame, etc. Contractor is required to coordinate the schedule of this work with the Engineering Department Inspector; 52. Please provide dimensions for the existing RW. 55. Thermoplastic, not Thermal Plastic as noted. 56. Is there a detail included for (reversed slope) inside median curb? 57. Did not see that this was done. How about streets I, 5, 13? -7 Please correct this to have proper structure. 58. Where is street 3A as referred to on note on sheet C405. The way the accellane is shown, the inlet north of the entrance will be impacted and the casting may need to be replaced. 59. Still need more detail on stamped pattern. (Colored? Size/dimension of brick pattern, etc) Is there a specific company or subcontractor to do this? 60. Where is the "added" inlet? Still only see 3 inlets as proposed before. 61. Is this street #3? 62. Do not remove inlet. This cannot be done without impacting the existing pavement of B.D. Final decision of how to handle this existing structure is being worked out between the Engineering Department and the Street Department (it is desired to leave this inlet in place with a different casting, but due to snow plowing in winter and the possibility of this casting type being impacted by the plows, the final determination of casting is being made at this time). Please provide full notes regarding \vhich existing pipes are to remain and which are to be removed. 64. There is no defined left turn lane provided. Median should be consistent in width until left turn lane begins such that vehicles can easily tell where 2 lanes begin. -7 Also, want median nose further out. 65. Which sheet includes these notes? Additional Comments: (Sheet C200) II On Site Development Plan, please provide elevations where all "M.E." (Match Existing) elevations will be required, such as at the Tree Preservation Easement line. .. Please provide and indicate path for drainage [rom northwest corner of Lot 2 to the west and north (indicate inlet and TC elevations to show swale flow line and slope). .. Redesign drainage and underdrainplans for Lots Lots 5-8 such that stann sewer is provided. . Please ensure that ALL pad elevations, MFG and MFPG elevations are such that the routing for the 100 year flood event will not reach any finished floor or opening on any walk-outs. This is a requirement of your (grading)design and must be adhered to during construction ofthe homes! .. Traffic Calming: We do not need the neck-down treatments in any cul-de-sacs. As far as 011 the main strips, please do not provide these at the intersections, as this is a natural area for the slowing down and turning movement. Install the neck-downs in the longer, straight segments ofthe road, and not where they will be in a low or sag of the road profile. There will need to be "No Parking" signage along these neck-downs in front of the affected lots. " Include Emergency Flooding Routing arrows for route crossing Washita Court. (Sheet C201 and C202) .. Same comment regarding neck-downs for these street segments. Neck-down on Tanana between Washita and Wildcat, not at intersections. On Wildcat north of Tanana (but south of inlets) and further north on Wildcat (near lots to-11, 19-20). . Include notation in legend as to zigzag lines along floodway. .. Add note to lightly shown Cherry Tree Road as to "pavement to be removed per vacation of R W upon completion of...." . Include Emergency Flooding Routing arrows for route cTOssing Platte Drive and Powder Drive (more than one location?) .. u u . Revise location of pedestrian crossing on west side of bridge closer to intersection. Revise paths as discussed (to meet up with this location) . If parking lot or area is to be planned for amenities area, plan on appropriate curbing to tie into the road at this location. o Show corrected length of box culvert (72'?) . Additional stom1 structures (inlets and pipe) should be provided for rear yard drainage for lots 67- 73, combined with swales (high points, and structures at lows). . Show how existing Cherry Tree Road will be configured at the end. Wi11 there be any cul~de-sac type shape, signage showing dead end, show limits of pavement removal, etc. . In legend, the letters WO and WLO are included, but we did not find them indicated on any lots. Is there any clarification here on vihere these conditions mayor may not be built for specific lots? Other: o Do not include plans for Section 2 on this set of plans. We do not ""1sh to provide comments on this section until you are submitting them for development and review. (Sheet C204) o On Entrance Plan (Sheet C405), please label all easements, including Landscape Easement and non-access easement. o Intersection Detail (Sheet C406), indicate grass in areas of median where proposed. Square up the patterned pavement to be perpendicular to traffic lanes. . On ALL PLAN AND PROFILE SHEETS, please ensure that all locations where concrete cradles are noted, tbey are changed to stone cradles. . Construction Details Sheet C802, remove concrete pavement from typical street cross section detail. Hazel Dell Left Turn Lane in Median: . Ifpossible, the City would request that the left turn and median work be delayed until either this fall or next spring to allow for the landscaping relocation work to be done at an optimum time and provide for the best opportunity for survival of relocated and newplantings. . You are asked to remove the 6 green ash trees in the median, under the direction of Scott Brewer, the City's urban forestry coordinator, and deliver them to the location as specified by Scott. o A landscape replacement plan will be provided to you by Scott, and will include smaller shrubs and/or trees for this section. o A full maintenance of traffic plan will be required for the following work. o Mill existing inside yellow thermoplastic striping, remove 10 feet of grassed area to provide for left turn lane (additional 10' of asphalt, full depth, matching existing Hazel Dell pavement section). . Begin taper for left turn lane at point north where existing median for private drive is located, which is also the approximate beginning point ofthe deceleration lane. o Provide pavement marking plan, which will include new solid white between through and left turn, yellow along inside of median on the inside of the turn lane, appropriate arrow(s) and "ONL Y"(s). The three south bound lanes (including the deceleration, through and left turn) should be 12 feet wide for the decel and left turn lane, and the balance (14 ':l::) for the through lane. o We do not anticipate any need for curb work for this median/left turn lane work o The Department of Engineering should be contacted prior to beginning this work such that proper notices are provided to cOITlllmnications, fire, police and schools that there may be some lanes partially blocked, etc. u u At this time, we believe this covers most if not all of our comments relative to this project. Upon receiving revised plans that address these comments, we will be able to approve the plans for construction so that the project may proceed. Due to the sizeoftrus project, we appreciate that may ultimately be some items remaining or field decisions to be covered, and we ask your continued cooperation in working toward mutually acceptable solutions to these issues and areas.

Rarnona B From: Sent: To: Subject: WOlOS_JEFFREY _A@L1lLY.COM Monday, December 16,20025:17 PM rhancock@cLcarmel.in.us Proposed Cherry Creek Estates Sub-division Importance: High Ms. Hancock, I woulcj appreciate it if you could distribute this letter to the members of the Carmel City Planning Commission and the Carmel/Clay Plan Commission Subdivision Committee. I would also like a copy sent to John D (I apologize that I don't know his last name), the individual from the town who presented the Department Report at the December 3 Subdivision meeting. I am writing with my concerns over the proposed Cherry Creek Estates subdivisiqn that is proposed in Carmel along Hazel Dell Rd, north of Delaware Trace, South: of Spring Creek, and west of Haverstick. There are a variety of issues with this proposed development and the impact that it will have on the surrounding neighborhoods. As a homeowner in Delaware Trace, I will only address the concerns that I have related to this proposed development, although I recognize that residents of both Spring Creek and also Avian Glen, where the new east-west road will directly intertace with at Hazel Dell, have legitimate issues. My home is at 5274 Arapaho Way, arid my property is adjacent to the proposed development. The representative from Platinum Properties, at both the November Planning Board meeting and the December 3 SubdiVIsion Committee meeting stressed that the proposed development would be compatible with the surrounding neighborhoods. Which neighborhoods is he talking about? Spring Creek to the north is separated. by the east-west road, and seems to be getting further and further away from the proposed development, with an increased buffer, extensive tree plantings, and fences. The eastern side of the property is mostly undeveloped woods, so there are no homes there. The western side of the property is all woo ds, with Hazel Dell behind it. Delaware Trace and part of Haverstick are the only areas that directly border the proposed development. A few questions. The developers have. said therewould be a 20' easement between the lots along the southern edge of the property and Delaware Trace. Is that in addition to the easement that already exists? Who owns this easement? If it is part of the new homeowner's lot, then nothing has changed. I believe, although I may be wrong, that in an easement the area must be maintained but nothing permanent can be built. That means that things like sheds, above ground pools, swing-sets, dog runs, etc., could be put there. If there is some type of covenant that specifically prOhibits that type of building, it will make the lots less desirable and therefore less expensive. As a result the homes would also most likely be lower in price. If the easement does not belong to the new homeowners, but they must maintain it, then these Jots will also be less desirable. In addition, the lots would be very, very, small, the smallest in the development. The homes that would be built would not be at the top end of the $350-500,000 range that Platinum Properties is suggesting for this development. If Platinum Properties is talking about compatibility with Delaware Trace, then they have not done their homework. A number of properties on Arapaho, bordering on the proposed development, have sold in excess of $500,000 in the last 6 months. There are an additional 16 homes in Delaware Trace with prices ranging from $495,000 to $699,000 that are either currently on the market, or have closed in November. Where is the compatibility? The lots in Delaware Trace bordering the proposed Cherry Creek Estates are not large by any means, averaging around 0.5 acres. From the plot maps it appears there will be nearly 1.5 new houses for every one in Delaware Trace Where is the compatibility? In keeping with Platinum Properties' desire to be compatible with the surrounding neighborhoods I would like to make the following recommendations. 1. Widen the lots bordering the southern edge of the proposed development to match the size in Delaware Trace. The 1 lots across the.street from these new lots are currently the widest in Phase I and II of the proposed development and would make a good transition. If these lots are larger, the homes that are built on them would be in the upper price range and cou Id allow recovery of revenue lost by eliminating a few lots. This suggestion would maintain the value of the Delaware Trace homes,and would increase the value of the Cherry Creek Estate homes. 2. If these are the high end homes this probably a given, but the homes should be 4~sioed brick. This again would make a reasonable transition between the two neighborhoods. 3. As Platinum Properties proposed at the Subdivision meeting, establish at least a 20' easement or buffer along the souther boundary of the property and, as recommended in the Department Report (December 3, 2002) plant a significant number of trees in that buffer. The number of trees should be enough to not only replace, to some extent, the trees that are being removed by the builder in other areas, but to assure that non-permanent structures could not be put up in the easement. The intent of this letter has not been to suggest that one neighborhood should be walled off from another. It is also not the intent to stop developm,ent. Wher:1 we purchased our home on Arapaho Way we knew fullwell that the property north of Delaware Trace would be developed. The problem comes when a development is planned that will have a significant negative impact on the property values in the adjoining neighborhood. It is then that walls go up. Regardless of what is built in Cherry Creek Estates my family is what makes my home what it is. However, a house is most people's primary investment, and maintaining the value of that investment, especially in these times, is vitally important. < /font> I have not mentioned any ofthe other issues that I hope other's have taken the time to raise. Just briefly, for Delaware Trace the increased traffic is going to be a major problem. With the new major east-west road exiting onto Hazel Dell with only a stop sign, traffic is going to back up from the new neighborhood and from additional cars from Spring Creek. This means that it will be extremely difficult for the entire portion bf the proposed development bordering D.elaware Trace to make the left turn onto the new east-west road and then make a left turn onto Hazel Dell. I foresee almost all of this proposed development exiting through Delaware Tr"1ce al)d Plum Creek to 131 st 81. This will have a major impact on the quality of life. I don't know what can be done about this, but I do know that the traffic study commissioned by the builder must not have been done in the morning or evening, when people and children are going to work and school I apologize for the length of this letter, I hope you give what I have said some consideration. Thank you for your time. Jeffrey A.

December 10,2002 We are writing to express our concerns regarding the proposed developmen(ofCherrY,<=r.eek ]~smt;;:s.just North of Delaware Trace. We live at 5278 Arapaho Way in Delaware Trace subdivision. Our property will directly back up to the new development of Cherry Creek Estates. We have two primary concerns regarding the development. I. Increased Traffic: We have children in both Elementary School and Middle School. We are extremely concerned about the increased traffic that will flow through our subdivision. It is common sense that an additional 270 homes directly adjacent to the subdivision will result in increased traffic through the Delaware Trace neighborhood. Rush hours in the morning and afternoons, while children are going to and coming home from school are of particular concern. Due to the natural increase in traffic flow during these times, we believe the increased traffic will have the most impact during these times, Since Hazel Dell Parkway in front of Cherry Tree Elementary School has a 25 mph speed zone from 7am to 7pm on weekdays, people will avoid this area and cut through the subdivision streets. We want our children to be safe! Neighborhood streets are not the place for rush hour traffic. 2. Destruction of Woodland Areas and Mature Trees: Our second concern is the reduction and loss of mature trees'and woodlands. Moving to Carmel Indiana Irom Crestwood Kentucky this past August was an eye opening experience for us. We were specifically shocked by the lack of mature trees and the density 9fthe homes in Carmel. The landscape of mature trees and woods we had grown accustomed to .in Kentucky and Southern Indiana was practically non-existent in CarmeL The future residents of Cherry Creek Estates will also benefit from the value that mature trees provide to a residential area. The destruction of mature trees is not something that can be replaced. Once they are gone, there is no way to replace them. Planting a few shrubs and trees does not make up for the loss ofmature trees and woodland areas. Along with the destruction of trees also come the destruction of wildlife and the destruction of natural beauty that is native to the state. Carmel is soon becoming known as the "city of shingles and concrete" It is unfortunate. Surrounding communities will soon benefit from the haste and lack of vision of the Carmel city leaders. In closing, it appears that the desire ofthe many is overlooked by the desire ofthe few. Maybe you should take a poll of people in the community to see how many favor the needless destruction of mature trees and woodlands. Of course, that will never happen because we all know what the result would be. We hope that you wiIl carefully consider and review the concerns brought forth to you by the people in this community who have invested in it.

December 15, 2002 5:44 PM rhancock@ci.carmel.in.us RE: development of Carmel Dear Ms. Hancock, I am writing to you about my concern about the planned development of Cherry Tree Estates. lam very sorry to see that the town has approved such a large development without regard to the impact to the area This development will directly impact the local schools and roads in this area. While I can understand that the land in this area will inevitably be developed, I do not think that a housing with such density was needed. There are many housing developments in the immediate area that fill the niche for this price range of home. We moved from Fishers to Carmel because we were unable to find a home ion the $300,00 range with any land to go with it. These homes have nothing to offer for the amount of money people are paying. There is a need for neighborhoods with 1/2 acre or more lots. These neighborhoods are scarce. The land on Cherry Tree Road is beautiful and is not being done justice by cramming 270 houses onto it. It is bad for the schools, it is bad for traffic, it is bad for the overall feel ofthe area. Is there a master plan for Carmel? Are there any plans to control the massive influx of people that a neighborhood like Cherry Tree Estates will bring? A neighborhood such as this one will require the town to build another school to hold all the children who will be moving into the area. What about the already too large High School? How many students does the town want it to facilitate? Class sizes will be well approaching 1,500 students if the growth is not controlled. Keep in mind, that the development of Hazel Dell Parkway area is only part of the development that is taking place in Carmel, As a resident of Carmel, I ask that stronger zoning restrictions be implemented to control the growth of the city. I hope you will give this matter additional consideration. Thank you, Tammy Collins Tammy Collins Do you Yahoo!? Yahoo! Mail Plus - Powerful. Affordable.

After attending the public hearing on November 19th, I was shocked to learn about the negative impact this development would have on the traffic congestion and the woodlands. I was also surprised to learn that the density calculations include land that that is "not developable" (such as flood plains and well variances). As the mother of two young children and a Carmel taxpayer, I am most concerned with the safety of children. I understand that the developer had a traffic analyst review the plans and there were "no problems". With the addition of the major east Iwest connecting street between River Road and Hazel Dell, traffic would be backed up to turn left onto Hazel Dell in the mornings. Therefore, I cannot fathom how an unbiased traffic analyst could determine there would not bean excessive amount of traffic detouring through Delaware Trace during morning rush hour. This additional traffic would be zooming down our streets about the same time the children would be waiting to catch the school bus. When my husband was relocated to Indianapolis, one of the main reasons our family decided to purchase a home in Carmel was due to the natural woodlands. I am hopeful that our planning commission values these mature trees in our area as much as I do. Christine C.

I border the property that is being reviewed for the Cherry Creek Estates development. I have some concerns with the development and how it will impact the area of the community in which my family lives. . Safety- I have reviewed the proposed layout of the streets and I feel it will significantly increase the flow of traffic on Arapaho Way. I have two daughters that are 27 and seven months and increased traffic has a direct impact on their safety. o Value- Delaware Trace is a nice open community with large trees and wide lots. In the same space our neighborhood has 9 homes, Cherry Tree Estates will have 13. This hurts the value of my property. I have invested, with local Carmel contractors, over $60,000 to increase the value of my property. That value will be diminished significantly by these smaller and lower quality homes. I offer some suggestions that I believe will help with these issues. iii Transition Space- Create an area of transition between Delaware Trace and Cherry Tree Estates. The transition should have wider lots, and it should also have landscaping requirements to preserve the large trees between the two properties. I!I Additional Exits- At least two exits onto Hazel Dell should be included in the plan. Each morning when I try to make a left turn onto Hazel Dell, the road is already packed. It is not unusual for me to wait for as many as 20 cars before I can make a left turn. More traffic through a single exit will only exacerbate this Issue. I appreciate your time in considering my perspectives on this issue. Regards, Brett Ramsey 5280 Arapaho Way 848-9972 1 Hancock.

We should make it clear that we understand that Carmel is a very attractive city for both homeowners and developers and that vacant land will be developed, but feel the proposed plans are not in the best interest of many involved. The density of the housing is our first concern. First of all, this will create traffic problems directly across the street from an elementary school, with this being the biggest issue of all. The only way to channel traffic away fram the children is to send it through the winding roads of Plum Creek and Delaware Trace, creating a nuisance and danger to those involved. To make matters worse, there have been attempts for years to place high density housing including apartment complexes on the. north side of 146th street. I attended a meeting held by the developer three years ago where he made it clear that there would be a traffic problem south of 146th but it would be something Carmel would have to '''deal with". These potential issues have been hanging over our heads for four years now, and I see no sign of them going away. The density of the houses proposed is another issue. We moved to Carmel to escape the clutter we lived in previously, . having spent 7 years living just off of 96th and Allisonville. Many of our neighbors did the same. Carmel allegedly prides itself on land preservation and maintenance of the environment, but sometimes it is hard to see where. In Delaware Trace, we basically have two retention ponds to avoid flooding and a wildflower preserve that mainly serves as a mosquito breeding ground. Plans for Cherry Tree Estates are even worse, which says a lot We again fully realize that any vacant land in Carmel will eventually be developed in some way, but hope that the city will protect the safety of the children attending .school or living nearby while also protecting the rights of those already living here.
