CARMEL, INDIANA
Docket No.: 11110007 V
Petitioner: Allegient, LLC
FINDINGS OF FACT DEVELOPMENT STANDARDS VARIANCE
1. The approval of this variance will not be injurious to the public health, safety, morals and
general welfare of the community because:
The proposed sign location will effectively address identification of one of the major tenants of
the building from Meridian Street I -465.
2. The use and value of the area adjacent to the property included in the variance will not be
affected in a substantially adverse manner because:
Wall signs facing Meridian Street 1 -465 are consistent with the majority of multi tenant multi-
level buildings in the corridor and allow for reasonable identification of major tenants.
Adequate identification of major tenants promotes higher occupancy rates in the corridor.
3. The strict application of the terms of the Zoning Ordinance to the property will result in
practical difficulties in the use of the property because:
Adequate identification of major tenants is critical to the success of building leasing. Absent
utilizing the proposed sign location the owner will be placed at a competitive disadvantage with
other similarly situated buildings in the US31/Meridain Street Overlay which are permitted
more than one sign location facing Meridian Street 1 -465.
