SPECIAL STUDIES COMMITTEE
DEPARTMENT REPORT
October 5, 2004
12. Docket No. 04090036 ADLS: Carmel Ed Martin Acura (ADLS)
The applicant seeks approval of a new building and its associated signage. The site is
located at 3800 East 96 Street. The site is zoned B -3 /Business.
Filed by Larry Kemper of Nelson and Frankenberger.
The applicant is requesting ADLS Amendment approval to modify the exterior of their building
including the enclosing of the covered display area and new wall signage. Please see
informational packet distributed with this report.
The Department discussed changes to the plan with the applicant, revisions have been submitted
and will be mailed with the report. Revisions include the reduction of the logo sign and
illustrating the location of rooftop mounted HVAC equipment.
The Department requests that the applicant change the existing ground sign to a blue letter to
match the proposed changes in wall signage. Currently no changes are proposed to this sign.
The Department recommends that the Special Studies Committee approve the request after
all comments and concerns have been addressed.
Note: If approved, the applicant will also need variance approval to allow two wall signs on the
south elevation of the building as proposed. This is consistent with many of the auto dealers
along 96 Street in the Carmel jurisdiction and the Department is in support of the request.
