Adrienne:
I understand that you are the appropriate person to receive comments about the referenced plan. If I am
mistaken, please let me know. I live at 365 W. 107th Street, Carmel (which is near 106th and Springmill). Unlike
many of my neighbors, I favor (a) being annexed by Carmel and (b) having Illinois Street as a Parkway. (Likewise,
I would favor Springmill as a Parkway, but I don't think that is being contemplated at this time.) However, I oppose
the idea 6 story office buildings on the west side US 31 between 106th and 111th Streets. I believe buildings of
that height would significantly deflate the value of our homes for, at least, two reasons: (a) the tenants in the
upper floors would look directly into the backyards of the adjacent home owners, and (b) there is no way to
effectively screen from view of the residences a 6 story building.
Please confirm that my comments will be shared with the plan commission. If you would like to speak with me by
telephone, you may reach me at 317-575-5555. Thank you.
Very truly yours,
Steven M. Kirsh, Attorney
