Subject Re West Carmel Marketplace access road Angie Well done with this message to Mr Visco clarifying the Citys concerns However it appears that we can expect now to see some sort of notice letter coming from Mr Visco based on his message of Tuesday evening He probably will notify Mr Armstrong that they (Casto) will view it as a civil trespass if Armstrong or his workers even accidentally set foot on the Casto side of the property line They may also warn the City that they will view the City as unlawfully interfering with their property rights if we continue to attempt to authorize Armstrong to proceed My assumption is that Casto will hold out for some sort of payment from Armstrong to obtain an access easement which would allow his tenants and customers to use Casto s frontage road and other driveways In any event my advice is that we should share Casto s notice letter with the City Attorney and consult with him before we take any further steps regarding this controversy

Marketplace Owners Association Inc 191 Nationwide Blvd W Suite 200 Columbus OH 43215 Re Walnut Creek Drive West Carmel Marketplace It has recently come to City of Carmel s attention that the pavement of Walnut Creek Drive which exists in front of Home Depot and behind Burger King has not been fully extended to the south property line of the West Carmel Marketplace development The intent of the Carmel Plan Commission s approval of the development plan for West Carmel Marketplace was to have a street stub to which the next developer could connect thus allowing for vehicular access to /from 98 Street for internal circulation within the developments and to ease the traffic congestion along Michigan Road That said the City will authorize Mr Bill Armstrong the land owner of the parcels dust south of and adjacent to West Carmel Marketplace to extend the common roadway south so that there are no gaps in pavement between your portion of Walnut Creek Drive and his Mr Armstrong plans to move forward with redevelopment of his land which includes extending Walnut Creek Drive south to 98 Street A proposal to revise his already approved development plan from 2007 was submitted to our Department on August 20 2010 which is the filing deadline for Plan Commission applications He is slated to appear before the Plan Commission for a public hearing on October 19 2010 and all adjacent
