RE: ZONING ORDINANCE VIOLATION — NO SIGN PERMIT
Dear Sir or Madam:
This letter is being provided to inform you that a sign violation has been brought to this
department's attention. The signs are located at 382 Arbor Drive in the City of Carmel. All signs
located in Clay Township are required to have sign permits according to Section 25.07.07 of the
Carmel/Clay Zoning Ordinance which states the following:
Except as otherwise provided in this Ordinance, it shall be unlawful for any person
to establish any sign within the jurisdictional area of this Ordinance, or cause the
same to be done without first obtaining a sign permit for each sign from the
Administrator as required by this Ordinance.
The design of the permanent signage was approved by a committee of the Plan Commission
through ADLS (Architecture, Design, Lighting, and Signage) Review. However, following approval
by the Plan Commission committee, sign permits should have been obtained for both signs. Also,
both signs were installed within the Right of Way area and are currently obstructing the
construction of a multi -use pedestrian path. Therefore, we need these permanent signs to be
removed by November 7, 2008, and you may apply for proper sign permits for the reinstallation of
permanent signs that would be located outside of the City of Carmel's right of way area. It is
important to note that the City of Carmel does have the right to remove obstructions placed illegally
within the right of way area; therefore your immediate' attention to these issues would be
appreciated. _ To obtain the sign permit, please contact Rachel Boone at (317) 571-2417. If you
have any questions or comments regarding this matter, please feel free to contact me at (317) 571-
2476. Thank you for your cooperation.
Respectfully, ^t /
