CC- 02- 15 -10 -03 (Docket No. 09090018 CPA):
96 St Westfield Blvd Subarea Plan Comprehensive Plan Amendments
A Resolution of the Common Council to amend the Carmel Clay Comprehensive Plan (C3 Plan 2009), in
order to adopt land classifications and a Subarea Plan for the 96` Street and Westfield Boulevard Special
Study Area. The area of this study is located south of 99` St., north of 96 St., east of the Monon, and west
of Keystone Pkwy. Filed by the Carmel Department of Community Services on behalf of the Carmel Plan
Commission.
Please find enclosed the Plan Commission certified draft of the proposed amendments to the
Carmel Clay Comprehensive Plan (C3 Plan 2009). The function of these amendments is to
update the Land Classification Map, Thoroughfare Plan Map, and to adopt a Subarea Plan for the
area surrounding 96 Street and Westfield Boulevard for inclusion in Part 5: Critical Corridors
and Subareas. Currently this area is designated as an "Area for Special Study" and does not have
any land classifications to help manage future land use, community form, or connectivity. After
many meetings and discussions with the public and the Plan Commission, the department
believes the proposed plan strikes a balance between potential redevelopment along 96 Street
and offers solutions to protect the area's neighborhoods.
The proposed amendment affects the following pages with substantive changes:
Page 45: Land Classification Plan Map
Page 63: Thoroughfare Plan Map
Page 89: 96 Street Corridor Plan
Pages 100 -103: 96 Street and Westfield Boulevard Subarea
Most changes are noted in red, however, pages 100 -103 are new pages to be added to the C3 Plan
2009 and have been labeled as such.
The information on this item has been arranged in the following format:
1. Copy of PC Certification
2. Resolution CC- 02- 15 -10 -03
3. Proposed Amendments to the C3 Plan 2009
