South, District Engineer for the Hamilton County Soil and Water Conservation District that your project known as Emerald Crest is out of compliance with the National Pollution Discharge Elimination System (NPDES) General Permit Rule 327 IAC 15-5. It is the intent of the Division to resolve non-compliance issues and avoid referring this project to the Indiana Department of Environmental Management (IDEM) for an enforcement action. The On-Site Evaluations for this project document that little or no effort has been made to comply with the conditions and requirements of 327 IAC 15-5. Copies of the most recent reports have been enclosed. The reports clearly outline the deficiencies observed at the site and the requirements to bring the project back into compliance. Failure to implement and maintain appropriate erosion and sediment control measures is a serious violation and deserves your immediate attention. It is therefore requested that on or before September 21, 2001 that you adequately address the deficiencies as specified in the enclosed on-site evaluation. Once corrective action has been taken to address the deficiencies, please notify John B. South, District Engineer. Staff will continue to inspect this site to monitor progress and assess compliance with the Rule. Failure to correct deficiencies will result in a referral to the Indiana Department of Environmental Management and the initiation of an enfomement action. If you have any questions regarding the On-site Evaluation or require clarification on any issue, please contact John B. South immediately at 317-773-1406. Sincere/l ,~'~ /~ Randy J.

(2) All curb cuts and/or median cut(s) will require BPWS approval. The Engineering Department will need justification fo~ the number of curb cuts requested. No curb cuts will be granted for 'future" development without knowledge of the planned use. (3) In addition to the Hamilton County Surveyor's Office, the City of Carmel will review/approve drainage for the site and will require copies of and verification of all permits and approval given by the County. 3h.

ASHBURY PARK Engineering has initiated discussions with the developer regarding modifications that would allow for a southern access off 131 Street. The developer's engineer is currently evaluating this pmpessl. There is some concern that if no other access than onto 136~ Street or through Spring Farms is provided, it may create additional "cut-through" traffic through an established neighborhood. While it has always been a planned connection, a separate access to the south would help divert traffic wanting to head south more directly to 131~ Street. This development has not been annexed. We reserve additional comments until detailed construction plans have been submitted. · Page I OLD BUSINESS 1i.

Per the discussions at the last subcommittee review, we were instructed to eliminate one lot from the section of lots backing onto Cherry Tree Road, which would include Lots 1-14 and also eliminate the street stub connection between Lots 11 and 12. These lots were then widened to seventh-five feet in width to accommodate our largest units. We still maintained a common area at the old right-of-way location for a bike trail access to Cherry Tree; however, there will be no street connection at this point. Additionally, the landscape plans have been revised to increase the size and quantity of materials along both Cherry Tree Avenue and Main Street to provide a better buffering from the adjoining properties. Additionally, the landscaping has been added to the Cherry Tree Avenue buffer area in Section III. The landscape plan also denotes the fencing proposed at this location. I have also enclosed revised covenants restricting fencing to wrought iron. Please review the plan and if you have any comments please call me at 595-2903. If these plans are adequate I will submit a copy to the Plann±ng Commission Subcommittee. Cc: Jim Nelson Mick Scheetz Sincerely, President of Development 3755 East 82nd Street, Suite120 Indianapolis, Indiana46240 (317)595-2800 H 0 M E S, LLC TO: Mark Monroe City of Carmel Carmel Planning Commission Subcommittee Members Jim Nelson, Nelson & Frankenberger FROM: Chris White President of Development Davis Homes, LLC RE: Hazel Dell Summit DATE: June 1, 1999 At our last Subcommittee Meeting on May 5, 1999, we were directed by the Committee to receive confirmation from the Parks Board that the proposed park area at the north end of our site would be a desirable area to be accepted by the Parks Department. We immediately filed our request to Mr. Randy Auler, of the Parks Department, who we have been working with on this location for several years now. This project was presented to the Parks Board at their next available meeting, which was held on May 25, 1999. From this meeting we did receive a favorable recommendation from the Board that if the Hazel Dell Summit Plat were approved by the Plan Commission that the Parks Board would consider this request for a donation of park land at this location. I want to inform you that 90% of the discussion regarding this matter as presented to the Parks Board centered around whether it was appropriate for the Parks Board to consider this request prior to the Planning Commission approving the plat. As we previously stated, the Parks Board has decided to take no action on these matters until such time as the plats are approved. They are very concerned with setting a precedence where the Plan Commission will send all open space plans to them for review prior to the approval of the plats. This appears to be a major concern of the Board that they would like to avoid in the future. 3755 East 82nd Street, Suite 120 Indianapolis, Indiana46240 (317)595-2800 The Parks Board felt like they were sending the wrong signal back to the Plan Commission by acting on our request even though there was no major objections to the proposed park area. I sincerely hope that in the future that the Plan Commission and Parks Board agree on a procedure by which petitions of this nature can have the input from the Parks Board without putting the petitioner in the awkward position that we found ourselves with this petition. Also, as part of the donation of the land to the Parks Department, we as petitioners, did agree to maintain the area by keeping it mowed for a period of two years after the dedication. We agreed to provide sanitary sewer access to the site for restroom facilities and also agreed to donate a cash contribution of $20,000 towards park improvements which could include parking, shelters and other types of things deemed necessary by the Parks Board. If this plat is approved, we would proceed back to the Parks Department to work these items out in more detail prior to them acting on this matter. Hopefully, this satisfies the questions raised at the last Subcommittee Meeting. At the last Subcommittee Meeting questions were also raised about the photographs we showed of the proposed homes to be constructed by Davis. In particular, a question was raised regarding one of the wider homes which showed a three car garage and the capability of placing that particular home on lots in this community, which are approximately five feet less in width than the lots in Shelborne Orchard from which the photographs were taken. The particular home in question is 59 feet in width, while the majority of our homes range in the 45 to 55 foot wide range. There are numerous lots within our proposed layout in Sections I and II which will provide additional width for this wider home to be constructed. In fact, almost 10% of the homes in this area will accommodate this particular home with a third car garage. Additionally, other models of homes that we have will accommodate a third car garage on about 25% of the homes in this community. Since our last Subcommittee Meeting there has also been additional questions regarding the treatment of the perimeter of the subdivision along Main Street and Cherry Tree Avenue. The proposed treatment along 131Bt or Main Street will be identical in nature to the wrought iron fencing, brick columns, landscaping and mounding which exists along the frontage of The Trails at Avian Glen directly to the west. I have enclosed photographs of this area which would be extended along the frontage of Main Street within the 50 foot buffer area, which is provided in the plan. Also please note in the plan the units abutting Main Street have been oriented such as the sides or front of the homes are angled towards the street and not the rear yard area. Additionally, the home sites will be at an elevation lower than the street due to a natural topography of the site, as you can see from some of the photographs taken of this area. This elevation difference in conjunction with some of the three to four feet mounding proposed in the fifty foot buffer area will help with the buffering and view of these homes from the street. We have also restricted the fencing within the community to be black wrought iron only to match the fencing proposed along the perimeter of the site. I have also provided photographs of the existing mounding and landscaping which exist along Cherry Tree Avenue. This will also be extended along the area north of the creek. Additionally, we have agreed to add twenty more evergreen trees 8' in height along the section of Cherry Tree south of the creek to increase the buffer to the existing homes in Trails at Avian Glen. Regarding the concerns expressed by the adjoining Trails at Avian Glen community we have had three additional meetings with the homeowners since our last subcommittee. We have allowed them to elect a new Board to replace Davis as the controlling Board for the Association. We have had many discussions regarding the Associations and providing separate Associations and different possibilities of sharing in the use of the pool facilities. We have hopefully reached an agreement whereby Davis will release any rights to expanding the Association and any rights to this proposed area utilizing the existing pool facility in The Trails at Avian Glen. The newly elected Board is reviewing our proposal and hopes to respond to us soon. Additionally, at the last Subcommittee Meeting there was discussion about other layouts on this site which might incorporate open space in other portions of this site. I want to reemphasize that our proposed plan is well below the permitted density in this area of 2.1. Our present density is 1.8. The open space we have provided in our subdivision is 35% and the required open space is 25%. We would be permitted by existing ordinance to have twenty more lots on this site plan and still comply with the ordinance, but we have elected not to do so. Based on the layout of this site and what we feel is the most attractive and useful open space area for this community is to create a park area in the wooded portion of the site at the north end of the community which is the primary conservation area for our site. There are many other possible ways to lay out this site as was mentioned by Mark Monroe at the last meeting. This open space could have been distributed throughout the site in many other ways, however, in our opinion the proposed plan does meet the ordinance and does provide a nice community park area which can be utilized by not only the residences of this community but residences of all the surrounding neighborhoods in the area. It provides a nice focal point for the future Cherry Tree Avenue bike trail. This also provides a very scenic view from Hazel Dell Road, which is the primary roadway adjacent to our community. The proposed open spaces provided throughout the rest of the community along with the bike trail system proposed will provide access for all the residents in this community with easy access to not only the Common Areas along the creek but also to the proposed park area at the north end of this section. Again, we feel this is the most appropriate layout for the open space for this particular community and would request your consideration of our plan in its present state. Hopefully this answers the concerns and questions to date and we will be happy to address any further you might have. addressed questions Sincerely, (.. Christopher R.

After several meetings we have agreed to relocate our entrance to the north to align with the entrance to Delaware Trace. We have worked closely with the Parks Department and Mayor's office regarding this matter and it appears to be the best solution for all parties concerned. Due to the additional length of roadway required we have added two additional lots along this new roadway so that the overall number of lots in Section III of this development is 51 lots. Additionally, the lots in this area have been enlarged to 80-feet in width. Enclosed please find several copies of the revised primary plat for this area. We will present this revision at the Planning Commission Meeting on April 20th. Please review the revisions and if you have any comments prior to the meeting please contact me at 595- 2903. This revision will eliminate any additional immediate cuts to Hazel Dell Road. Christopher R.

There will be no additional fill required between the pond and the floodplain. The pond on the northside of the creek is partly located within the floodplain but outside the limits of the floodway. There will be a small two-foot berm located between the pond and the existing ditch. This berm will be constructed of structural clay material so that we can avoid any potential erosion problems during major storm events. 3755F. as182ndSl,'ecI, Suile120 htdialmpolis, h~diana46240 (317)595-2800 Item No. 6: The floodway limits have been added to the drawing along with additional floodway information, which was provided at the T.A.C.

Additional information regarding the floodplain, floodway and drainage along 131"~ Street has been added to the plan. Additionally, detailed construction plans have been submitted to your office for further review. Per your comments at the T.A.C. Meeting and in your letter dated March 23, 1999, we have looked at the area along the Mitchener Ditch as it relates to the lots abutting this area along the soutside of the creek. Enclosed please find some photographs of the existing creek area along the stretch of the site. As you can from these photograph~, this portion of the creek is not wooded. There are a few trees and isolated areas along the creek, however, a majority of the creek is very open and accessible to both sides of the creek. The reason that our lots encroach fairly closely to the creek at this location is an effort to save a tree llne in the center of the site, which falls on the backside of the lots in this area. We feel that most of the access for maintenance and clearing of this creek will be provided along the northside of the creek where we intend to install an asphalt bicycle-walking path along the edge of the creek between the pond and the creekbank. The slopes of this ditch are not excessive on either side of the creek as you can see from the photographs. To help with the access we have enlarged the easement behind Lots 107 to 111 to be approximately 30' in width in lieu of 20' which will give further access if needed on this side. of the creek. However, to move these lots from the back will jeopardize the tree line we are trying to save in the center of the community. Please review the plan for any further conflicts that you might have.

The proposed plan is based on the open space ordinan~. The Mitchner Drain that flows through the site is thc most impotnant natural resource on the site. As such, it deserves,more a~tention in the open space plan. A 50 feet wide riparian corridor on both sides of the channel would be sufficient. This corridor would enhance the wildlife value of the waterway and serve as a filter sWip for surface.wa~r pollutents. Suf~cient room should be left on the north side of the channel for maintenance~ The steep slopes on the south side prevent access. . . 2. Drainage for 1.31st Street should be addressed. 3.

We offer the following comments: 1. The Board of Public Works and Safety must approve median cuts on Hazel Dell Parkway. This office would not support tnedian access at the location indicated on the plans. We believe the design should be reevaluated to align this entrance with the existing Tammany Trail cntrance to Delaware Trace. 2. We are in the process of reviewing drainage calcs. 3. There is concern that not enough detention has been provided for the development south of the Vestel Ditch. Also concerned how the area adjacent to the commercial development will drain. 4. We are also concerned that during periods of high atonn events (including 100 year), detention would be sacrificed due to the apparent minimal distance between the ponds and the Vestel Ditch. 5. How steep are the benns between the ponds and file ditch? Drawings need to indicate floodway delineation. 7. We request that all detention ponds be lined. 8. Will basements be allowed in this development? 9. Is the development north of the Vestel Ditch to be a part of Section 27 10. Eliminate curb inlets fi.om the radius of interseetion curves. 11. We would recommend "softening" file south entrance to lessen the slmrp right turn required to enter the development from Cherry Tree Road. 12. Provide additional atmight pavement section prior to entering the curve on Emerald, north of the intersection with Sapplfire in order to improve visibility and eliminate any skewed leg to the intersection. 13.

We have revised the plans in accordance with your review letter dated February 23, 1999. The comprehensive plan statement has been revised in accordance with the 1996 plan. A copy of this statement is enclosed. We are still waiting on the service reports from the various public and private agencies needed for T.A.C. review. We have been in contact with the surveyor and S.C.S. offices to obtain their comments prior to the T.A.C. meeting. We have requested also to be on the Board of Works Agenda for sanitary sewer availability at their next available meeting. A&F Engineering is preparing a traffic impact study for this site and it will be forwarded to you in the next week to two weeks. The plan has been revised to incorporate your items from your letter, including the widening of the streets as you requested on Emerald Pass, Olan Trail and Pima Pass. Several street names have been amended and these are being forwarded to the Communications Department for their review. Details of the acceleration and deceleration lanes have been added to the plans. The corner lots as they presently exist on the plan are wider to accommodate the floor plans that we would propose at this location. The flood plain for the Mitchener Ditch has been labeled. The proposed pathway along 3755 East 82nd Street, Suite120 Indianapolis, Indiana46240 (317) 595-2800 the northside of 131s~ Street has been revised to show it within the 50-foot half right-of-way. We have amended the trail linkage location to be between Lots 10 and 11 at the northwest corner of Section Three. By relocating it to this location, we can provide access to both Cherry Tree Bike Trial and to the park area with one connection point. This connection point is noted to be 10-feet wide and is constructed such that it can be utilized to be used as an emergency access for this area since these 49 lots have one means of access. Enclosed also please find several copies of the revised landscaping plan. We have amended the .plant types as requested and have also added landscaping along the rear lots of Cherry Tree Avenue. Entry signage details have also been added to the landscaping plan along with fencing details. There will be no internal street lighting as we will require each home in the community to have dusk to dawn yard or coach lights placed on them. We are still waiting on water hydrant placement approval from the Carmel Water Department and Fire Departments. Please review these items and if you have any further questions please call me at 595-2903. We look forward to being placed on the March 17th Technical Advisory Committee and the April Planning Commission meeting. Please let us know the fee, we will need to confirm a docket number.
