DEPARTMENT REPORT

6. Docket No. 111-03 ADLS; (03070009);
Meridian Technology Center, AmeriCenters -Carmel
The applicant seeks Architectural Design, Lighting, Landscaping & Signage approval to
construct an office building. The site is located at the southeast corner of College Avenue
and Pennsylvania Street. The site is zoned B-2Business.
Filed by Blair D. Carmosino of Duke Construction LP.
The following items need to be revised/addressed:
1. Dedication o£ additional right-of--way appears to be necessary for the applicant to comply
with the requirement to install a 10' asphalt path along both Pennsylvania Street and
College Avenue. The Department would support the construction of a 5' concrete
sidewalk along College Avenue only as opposed to an asphalt path at this location.
2. Where would the dumpster be relocated to upon Phase II expansion?
3. Architecture:
a. We request that the applicant confirm that the wall heights will screen all roofrop-
mounted equipment.
b. The applicant needs to provide material samples at the meeting. The rendering in
the booklet looks pink. Is this the proposed color of the "simulated limestone"?
4. Landscaping:
a. The applicant should provide a chart outlining the level of landscaping required
and that provided for on the plan. The Department will not support a request for
relief form the minimum landscape requirements.
b. The west and north perimeters are "D" buffers of 15', the east perimeter is an "A"
buffer of 10' in width, and the south buffer is an "A" buffer of 5' in width.
Concerns raised at the August Plan Commission meeting included the following:
Number of pazking spaces provided.
The Department recommends that the Special Studies Committee forward this item to the
full Plan Commission with a favorable recommendation after all questions and concerns
have been addressed.
