EXPLANATION OF REQUEST
1200 West, LLC, is the contract purchaser of the Shepherd Insurance building located
at 1200 West Carmel Drive. The property is outlined on the aerial photograph included
under Tab 2. It is approximately 1.9 acres in area and zoned Old Meridian Office (OM/O).
The uses permitted in the OM/0 District are set forth in the use table included under
Tab 3. The applicant is requesting a use variance to also allow General Personal Service uses
as defined in the excerpt from the Zoning Ordinance included under Tab 4.
General Personal Services, the proposed additional uses, are compatible with other
uses permitted on the subject real estate and in the vicinity of the subject real estate. This
type of use includes such businesses as a hair or nail salon, tailor shop, and other recurrent
needed services of a personal nature. It does not include uses such as retail sales, dry
cleaning, day care or restaurants as primary uses.
The applicant plans to have one primary building entrance to a common area used by
all tenants and then 3 to 4 separate business tenant spaces surrounding the common area.
The largest tenant space is planned for a Medical Spa, which is a permitted use. It, along
with the common area, will occupy just over half of the building. A hair and nail salon
(General Personal Service as defined by the Zoning Ordinance) is currently planned for
another tenant space. The remainder of the building area is open for additional businesses
that will be of the same professional office and service mix. To allow this mix of uses the
approval of a Use Variance is necessary.
We look forward to presenting this mater to the Board of Zoning Appeals on January
24, 2012.
Respectfully submitted,
Charlie D. Frankenberger
