RE: Alexandria of Carmel-Proyect Review #2
Dear Mr. Donica
The purpose of this letter is to summarize the discussion points covered in our recent meeting and cover all
outstanding review comments.
I am aware that you were asked to discuss and finalize the Department of Engineering's comments regarding
certain issues, one of which concerns the matter of which streets should be dedicated as public and which may
remain as private. This department would like to have this project developed to comply with the intent of the Old
Meridian Master Plan, and accordingly, we would ask that [be main east-west street be dedicated, and if certain
chances can be accommodated to the north-south street entrance, it also be dedicated. We would like the area of
dedication, or right-of--way, to be inclusive of the pavement, curbing and primary sidewalks (parallel to the road).
For proposed landscaping, street lights and any other improvements in the right-of-way, separate maintenance
agreements and/or Consent to Encroach Agreements will be necessary. The engineering or design issues that will
need to be modified to satisfy this office are:
East-Nest Street
• The driving width shall be no less than a total of 24-feet of asphalt pavement for two 12-foot lanes of
travel.
• The parking spaces width shall be a minimum of 6.5-feet of asphalt, along with the 1.5-foot of gutter for
a total of 8-feet wide. I have reviewed the material provided to me from A&F Engineering and will rely
on this recommendation for sufficient lane and parking space width.
• The entrance width shall be widened to better accommodate the fuming movements for vehicles (suggest
a width of 26-feet at neck).
• Features of the road shall be incorporated at the intersections to clearly identify parking spaces and
prohibit parking close to and into the intersections. This shall be accomplished by curb extensions or by
cross-hatching. (See attached example ofcross-hatching on drawing)
North-South Street
• The width at the entrance at 131" Street remains much wider than would be allowable. We discussed the
narrowing of the neck of this entrance and possible pavement treatment to address the issue of vehicle
and lane positioning. We do not find any changes to this entrance, and would not desire this north-south
road to be the City's responsibility with this widened entrance. Keep in mind that the Board of Public
Works and Safety would still have to approve this entrance and width, and at this time, this office would
not be supportive of such approval as shown.
• Sanre features are to be added where appropriate (curb extensions or cross-hatching) as outlined above.
The following items are repeated from our original comment letter to keep you advised of some of the remaining
requirements for this project.
This project will require numerous approvals from the Board of Public Works and Safety, including:
• Sanitary Sewer Availability for the residential buildings. The pool and clubhouse will require additional
Sanitary Sewer Availability approval. Please provide this office with;
- An estimate of water usage for the Clubhouse and dimensions of the surface water area of the pool.
- A listing indicating number of buildings, mitts/building, bedroonvs/unit, etc.

• Contrrtercial Curb Cut for the 131" Street and Pennsylvania Street Entrances. We will require an 8'/, x
11 drawing of each enhance curb cut to be used as exhibits for your BPW request. These drawings
should include all pertinent dimensions including accel/decel lanes, drive lane and median widths,
opposing curb cuts, radii, etc.
• Temporary Construction Entrance. Same requirements as for the Commercial Curb Cut.
• Consent to Encroach Agreements for any permanent improvement to be installed within dedicated
easements and/or dedicated right of way (for numerous stmctures, fountain, irrigation system, etc).
• Dedication of Right of R'ay for public Streets including interior dedicated streets and additional 131"
Street Right of Way (and Pennsylvania if applicable).
• Maimenance Agreement (for maintenance of features within road Right of Way).
Please be reminded that this project will require the posting of Performance Guarantees and eventually,
Maintenance Guarantees, for the following improvements:
• Interior Dedicated Sheets
• Interior Curbs & Gutters on Dedicated Streets
• Sanitary Sewers (Project is located within the Indianapolis Water service area)
Perimeter Road Improvements including the 131" and Pennsylvania entrances, sidewalks/paths,
acceUdece] lanes/passing blisters, etc. associated with these entrances
• Interior Sidewalks within dedicated right of way (if applicable).
• Street Signs
Please provide individual and detailed (materials, quantities, sizes, unit costs, etc.) certified Engineer's Estimates
for 100% of the cost of labor and materials for the above improvements. Individual Performance Guarantees are
to be posted in the amount of the Engineer's Estimates.
Also, please provide this office with a legal description that lists the total acreage and accompanied by an exhibit
of the legal description. Finally, when the drawings have been approve, we will require a minimum of four-sets
(maximum of six-sets) of approved drawings for approval. Both the City Engineer and Director Carmel Utilities
will sign the drawings. The Developer/Owner will receive one-set which is to be maintained on the construction
site at al] times. Carmel Utilities will receive one-set. Our Public Works Inspector will receive one-set and one-
set will be maintained in the Department of Engineering. If more than the minimum four-sets are requested to be
approved, the additional sets (maximum total of two additional) must be submitted with the four required sets.
If you have questions, please contacC Kate Weese, Mike McBride or me at 571-2441.

Note: At( erosion and sediment control measures shown nn the plans and referenced in this review must meet the design
criteria, stnndards, and specifications outlined in the "/ndiana Handbook jor Erosion Control to Developing Areas" from the
Indiana Deportment of Natural Resources, Division of Soil Conservation or similar Guidance Documents.
4A. A construction sequence is required for this site. The current sequence is from another project. All
disturbed areas need to be seeded afrer the rough grading is completed. The "second half' of the buildings to
be constructed need their pads to be temporarily seeded.
4C. The existing pond has joint ownership. I think it would be appropriate to try and limit the sediment
entering the pond. The extension of the existing pond at the north end could be excavated first and used as a
sediment basin. A berm would be left to separate the pond from the basin and a temporary outlet pipe
installed. Please consider this option and provide details and instructions on the plan.
A diversion Swale to the pond at the south end of the project would prevent storni water from flowing offsite
to the south.
4E. Specific instructions should be provide concerning the fill placement in the pond and timing of the
subsequent bank stabilization.
Note: IDEM will be notified when the plan is approved.

4. Sanitary Sewer Availability (acreage) and Connection Fees:
• Availability (acreage) Fees aie based on the legal description of [he property. Please provide this
office with a legal description that lists the total acreage and an exhibit of the legal description.
The Sanitary Sewer Availability Fee is 51,365.00 per acre.
• Connection Fees are based upon the average user factor tables from Section 9-200 (sanitary) of
our Utility Ordinance. The Connection Fees are 5795.00 per EDU for sanitary sewers. Please
provide this office with a listing of all buildings, building numbers, number of bedrooms, etc; in
order that Connection Fees may be calculated.
I am enclosing copies of our Average User Factors for Sanitary Sewers and our curzent fee

5. TAC Review/Drawings submitted for approval:
We request that all comments and comment letters generated by this office be answered in writing and
be accompanied by a drawing reflecting requested revisions. Final drawings will not be approved for
construction until all issues have been resolved. All Carmel Utility issues must also re resolved. The
design engineer must certify all drawings submitted for final approval. This office will require a
minimum offour-sets (maximum ofsix-sets) of approved drawings after al] issues have been resolved.
The drawings will be stamped approved and signed by both the City Engineer and Director Carmel
Utilities. The Developer/Owner will receive one-set which is to be maintained on the constmc[ion site
at all times. Carmel Utilities will receive one-set. Our Public Works Inspector will receive one-se[

are requested to be approved, the additional sets (maximum total of two additional) must be submitted
with the five required sets.
6. Please be advised that any installation of signs, walls, irrigation systems, etc. within dedicated
easements and/or right of way will require a Consent to Encroach Agreement between [he
Owner/Developer and [he City of Carmel. This Agreement requires Board of Public Works and Safety
approval.
7. Carmel Utilities does no[ subscribe to "Holey Maley" and should be contacted directly for all sanitary
sewer main locations.
8. Carme] Utilities will provide a separate review of this project for sanitary sewer issues.
9. I am including copies of the following with [his corzespondence:
• Commercial Project Approval Procedures.
• Perfotmance Release Procedure.
• Permit Data, Contacts, etc.
• Commercial Permitting Procedures.
• Dedication of Right of Way documents.
BONDING RF.OUIREMENTS
10. Upon initial review, it appears [he following bonding requirements may apply to this project:
Performance Guarantees
• Sanitary Sewers
• Entrance, Pennsylvania Street and ]31°' Street Improvements (including sidewalk/path).
If other improvements are to be dedicated, additional Performance Guarantees maybe required. Please
provide individual, detailed (materials, quantities, sizes, unit costs, etc.) certified Engineers Estimates
for 100% of the cost of labor and materials for the above improvements. Post Performance Guarantees
in the amount of the Engineer's Estimates. Three-year Maintenance Guarantees, in the amount of ]0%
Mr. Paul Donica, P.E.
May 1, 2003
Page 3
(15% for Entrance improvements) of the Performance Amount, will be required upon release of the
Performance Guarantee.
Street Cut/Right of ~Vay Permit and Bonding Requirements
It does not appear that a Right of Way Permit will be applicable for this project, since a Performance
Guarantee will cover the entrance improvements. However, any work in the dedicated right of way of
Old Meridian Street will require a Right of Way Permit and a License and Permit Bond. The bond
amount will be determined by the number of instances of work in [he right
of way (curb cut, storm sewer work, etc.) chi $2,000.00 per instance. Open pavement cuts in dedicated
streets require approval by our Board of Public Works and Safety.
PROJECT COMMENTS
11. It is our assumption that the interior streets and storm sewers/storm drainage are to be private. We
understand that due to the Old Meridian Master Plan, certain streets may ultimately be dedicated,
public streets. Please note or clarify where this is [he case.
12. We request that an additional sheet be included as an Entrance Plan with larger scale drawings of the
two curb cuts planned for this site. We do not want to have an entrance that is 70-feet wide at the
streets edge. This may result in confusing positions for the exiting and entering vehicles. Please
narrow the entrance approach at the right of way line to a more appropriate width (a maximum of 3-
lanes wide). Also, pull back the nose of the median to behind the proposed right of way line.
Cover Sheet
13. What is the intent of the Pennsylvania Street curb cut at the far southwest comer of the site? We
assume this is an existing cut. Will this curb cut be maintained?
Sheet C201, Sheet C202-Site Plan
14. What does the shaded portion of the streets mean? Will the project be completed in phases? If so, the
drawings need to indicate the phasing.
15. Label 131" Street.
16. 22-feet and 2~~ are not sufficient widths for streets that may become tha City's, especially with on-
street parallel parking. This is also only providing parking spaces that are Z.5-feet wide?! (everywhere
else they are a minimum of 9-feet wide).
17. On C201, how will the Mail Kiosk work? If it's a pull-up area, these cars will block the lanes for
eastbound traffic?
18, Also on C201, are there any utility easements? Where are utilities (electric, gas, cable, TV) to be
located? In the street right of way?
19. On C202, please clarify all the floating "Future" references. Future (what) and/or with phases, etc.
