HomeMy WebLinkAbout2008-0926; John LevinsohnDear Carmel Plan Commission Members,
As a resident of Western Clay Township, I am writing you today in reference to the C3
Comprehensive Plan that is currently under consideration and specifically about the
underutilized property surrounding the intersection of 116th Street and Springmill Road.
The immediate area has evolved into a first class commercial corridor that contains
immense employment opportunities as well as substantial revenue for the City. It is my
hope that we can further enrich this area by providing additional commercial assets of the
same stature and supplementing those assets with services that the population, both day
time and full time, may enjoy.
While I know there is a vocal minority that opposes the type of planning that should be
applied to this area; the idea that Springmill Road is some sort of demarcation that needs
to be buffered hinders the power of sound planning for the highest and best use of those
properties and subsequently the City as a whole. Given what has been accomplished by
the City of Carmel in recent years I expect that those properties will represent planning
and development worthy of national recognition. I appreciate the efforts you all put forth
to ensure that the City and its residents continue to prosper. Thank you for your time.
Sincerely,
John Levinsohn.
