SUBDIVISION COMMITTEE
DEPARTMENT REPORT
OCTOBER 6, 2009
1. Docket No. 09050010 OA: Carmel SmartCode Ordinance Amendment
Adopt Article 3: CARMEL SMARTCODE as part of Carmel City Code, Chapter 10: Zoning
Subdivisions. The SmartCode contains new development regulations that will be in effect for the area of
Carmel north of 116` Street and bounded by US 31 and Keystone. Filed by the Department of Community
Services, on behalf of the Carmel Plan Commission.
The Department of Community Services gave the first introduction to the SmartCode text the June 16 and July 21
Plan Commission public hearing meetings. The Department believes that two public hearings were appropriate in
order to give the public additional time to review the proposal. Postcards announcing these dates were mailed to all
property owners in North Central Carmel.
Please refer to the Sept. 23 memorandum and SmartCode booklet (revised as of Sept. 23) for more detail. If you
need an additional copy, please let us know. You may also view the draft on the web at:
www.carmelsmartcode.com The June 16 presentation slides are also posted at this website under Carmel
SmartCode Introduction and Public Hearing.
We now have some maps available for the committee meeting date for reference purposes; however, please note
that any formal zoning map amendments will be with Docket No. 09070013 Z and an additional public hearing was
held at the August 18 Plan Commission meeting.
The Dept of Community Services (DOCS) recommends that this item is discussed and then, if needed,
continued to a Special Subdivision Committee meeting (possibly Tuesday, October 13) for further review and
discussion. Or, the committee can forward this item to the October 20 Plan Commission meeting with a
positive recommendation.
