Our day-to-day activities include feeding and caring for our horses. We also ride our horses on the property and in our outdoor arena. We currently have 9 horses and 2 ponies. We have sold a horse and boarded that horse for the new owner until she could find a suitable facility. We intend to transfer this operation to our new address without making any changes other than we would like to have an indoor arena to ride in. We have found that there are many days that we are unable to ride without wind and rain. The topography in Clay West is very flat and there are no hills or woods available to ride behind to escape from the strong west winds that we experience in the country during October through March. The indoor arena would allow us to be able to exercise our horses without freezing in the wind and rain. We hope that this answers any questions that you might have concerning personal use.

Conner Street Noblesville, IN 46060 Plan Review Date: December 16, 2004 Acreage- 15ac Soils Information: gr Brookston silty clay loam This is a poorly drained soil with a seasonal high water table at 0.0 to 1.0 ft. This soil is located on depressions and is subject to ponding; slopes are 0 to 2 percent. The native vegetation is water tolerant grasses and hardwood trees. The surface layer is silty clay loam and has moderate to high organic matter content (2.0 to 6.0 percent). Permeability is moderately slow (0.2 to 0.6 in/hr) in the most restrictive layer above 60 inches. Available water capacity is high (10.0 inches in the upper 60 inches). The pH of the surface layer in non-limed areas is 6.0 to 7.3. This soil is hydric. Wetness is a management concern for crop production. This soil responds well to tile drainage; it is designated not highly erodible (class 3) in the Highly Erodible Land (HEL) classification system. CrA Crosby silt loam, 0 to 3 percent slopes This is a somewhat poorly drained soil with a seasonal high water table at 0.5 to 2.0 ft. This soil is located on rises on till plains; slopes are 0 to 3 percent. The native vegetation is hardwood forest. The surface layer is silt loam and has moderately low to moderate organic matter content (1.0 to 3.0 percent). Permeability is very slow (< 0.06 in/hr) in the most restrictive layer above 60 inches. Available water capacity is moderate (6.2 inches in the upper 60 inches). The pH of the surface layer in non-limed areas is 5.1 to 6.5. Droughtiness and wetness are management concerns for crop production. This soil responds well to tile drainage; it is designated potentially highly erodible (class 2) in the Highly Erodible Land (HEL) classification system. MmB2 Miami silt loam, 2 to 6 percent slopes, eroded This is a moderately well drained soil with a seasonal high water table at 2.0 to 3.5 ft. This soil is located on rises on till plains; slopes are 2 to 6 percent. The native vegetation is hardwood forest. The surface layer is silt loam and has moderately low organic matter content (1.0 to 2.0 percent). Permeability is very slow (< 0.06 in/hr) in the most restrictive layer above 60 inches. Available water capacity is moderate (6.1 inches in the upper 60 inches). The pH of the surface layer in non-limed areas is 5.1 to 6.5. Droughtiness and water erosion are management concerns for crop production. This soil is designated potentially highly erodible (class 2) in the Highly Erodible Land (HEL) classification system. Sh Shoals silt loam This is a somewhat poorly drained soil with a seasonal high water table at 0.5 to 2.0 ft. This soil is located on flood plains; slopes are 0 to 2 percent. The native vegetation is hardwood forest. The surface layer is silt loam and has moderate organic matter content (2.0 to 4.0 percent). Permeability is moderate (0.6 to 2 in/hr) in the most restrictive layer above 60 inches. Available water capacity is high (11.6 inches in the upper 60 inches). The pH of the surface layer in non- limed areas is 6.0 to 7.3. Wetness and flooding hazard are management concerns for crop production. This soil responds well to tile drainage; it is designated not highly erodible (class 3) in the Highly Erodible Land (HEL) classification system. Because of the flooding hazard, this soil has a severe limitation for most non-ag uses. IAdditional information about soils is available in the "Soil Survey of Hamilton County". The engineer and/or developer should consider the need for an onsite soils investigation. I have reviewed the plans for this project and have the following comments: The size and scope of this project does not require the filing of an NOI for Rule 5. A water course crosses the property and pollution from livestock is likely. The SWCD can assist the owner with a plan to minimize the water quality impacts from grazing animals and improper manure management. Should you have questions concerning these comments, please contact me. Submitted By: John B. South P.E.

This project falls within the jurisdiction of thc City of Carmel. . The Hamilton County Surveyor's Office has concerns related to Phase II Storm Water Quality issues. This project is located adjacent to an open regulated ditch and has direct flows into that open ditch. This office will rely on the guidance from John South, with Hamilton County Soil and Water. Conservation District and Amanda Foley, City of Carmel Storm Water Administrator. Our office would suggest a good disposal program, of the animal waste product and a grass filter strip along the open drain. . The Albert Shaw Regulated Drain crosses this parcel from thc pond of Claybom¢ Estates to the open ditch in RCP and manholes, The~ manholes are solid lid casting and should be visible at the surface. The Hamilton County Surveyor's Office or Hamilton County Drainage Board wi],l not be responsible for injury or damage to the horses if they would come in contact with the manholc castings. 12/07/2004 15:29 3177769628 HAMILTON CO SURVEYOR PAGE B2/02 4..The Hamilton County Surveyor's Office has no objection to the proposed special use variance. Should you have any questions, I can be reachcd at 317-776-8495.

Nathan Althouse, PLS Director of Survey Miller Surveying, Inc. 948 Conner Street Noblesville, IN 46060 RE: Arlet and Claudia Pryor 12899 West Road Zionsville, IN Miller Surveying Inc. Project No.b30075 Special Use Approval- SU-78-03 Dear Mr. Althouse: This letter is in response to your request of constructing a new single story structure containing 10,080 square feet on the above mentioned property. As a consultant to the City Engineer, I defer to that office to make recommendations requiring the need to detain for additional in]pervious area added and the necessity of the respective drainage calculations. However, I do offer one comment with regards to the concentrated flow from the gutters/down spouts of the proposed structure. This discharge should not be directed to the north or west, as the potential for adversely impacting adjoining properties with this runoff exists. Tile from the down spouts should be directed away from the foundation of the proposed structure to the south, ensuring that the collected discharge flows directly towards the Albert Shaw Drain. Feel free to contact me at this office if you should have any questions. Sincerely, ,! CrossRoad,./~l~gineers, P.C.
