Filed by Dennis Olmstead of Stoeppelwerth & Associates, Inc. for Centex Homes.
Present for the Petitioner:
Jon Isaacs, Todd Schafer, and Jeff Pape with Centex
Homes, Alan Sutkowski, Ed Waldrop, and Joe Rogers with ADS, Greg Spires with
Stormtech, and Ed Fleming with Stoeppelwerth and Associates.
Petitioner’s Presentation: Jon Isaacs
said that their hope is to start pushing dirt in
May or June of 2007 and deliver some townhomes close to the end of the year. He
said that they were moving forward with the infrastructure improvements at this
time.
Greg Hoyes, Hamilton County Surveyor’s Office:
He said that he sent Ed
Fleming a letter. He said that section one doesn’t contain a regulated drain
watershed. He said that they have no jurisdiction.
Shirley Hunter, Duke Energy:
She said that she doesn’t see any utility easements.
st
She said that they had power on 131 Street as well as Old Meridian. She said that
she isn’t sure how they are going to feed it.
Ed Fleming
said that he could get her an overall. He said that he could show Duke
Energy where everything was going to go in the ground.
Jeff Pape
said that they recently granted Carmel a right of entry.
Shirley Hunter, Duke Energy:
She said that Shawn South in their office would be
handling the project. She gave the petitioners his business card and a new service
request form. She noted that he would need AutoCAD drawings.
Nick Redden, Carmel Engineering:
He said that the department was still
reviewing the plans and that they would give the petitioners comments as soon as
they could.
Gary Hoyt, Carmel Fire Department:
He said that he had sent the petitioners a
letter. He clarified that the section would not have an amenity, that the townhomes
would have three stories with a garage, and that Centex Homes had no intention of
sprinkling the townhome buildings.
Ryan Hartman, Clary Township Regional Waste District:
He said that the
project falls outside of their jurisdiction, so he had no comments.
Karyn Ryg, Carmel Transportation Systems Coordinator:
She said that she
sent the petitioners a letter. She said that all streets would need to have sidewalks.
Ed Fleming
said that the interior streets are private. He said that the sidewalks
would be in front of the building a long the public access.
Karyn Ryg, Carmel Transportation Systems Coordinator:
Shesaid that should
be fine and she would look at the plans again. She said that she noticed that some
of the sidewalks were shown against the curb.
Ed Fleming
said that it is not up against the roadway it is against the parking. He
asked if it still had to be six-feet wide.
Karyn Ryg, Carmel Transportation Systems Coordinator:
Shesaid that it still
needs to be six-feet wide because they would need to make room for door clearance.
She said that she thinks that the intention is still a sidewalk along Old Meridian. She
said that they weren’t sure if there were going to be uses where activities would be
happening in the sidewalk. She said that they wanted to make sure that a clear
pedestrian throughway was provided.
Jon Isaacs
said that was going to be a later discussion coming when they moved
forward to seek approval for the buildings along there.
Jeff Pape
said that some of the intersections were going to have special finishes,
such as pavers or stamped concrete at the crosswalks of the intersections. He said
that he was aware that something would have to be worked out with the
Homeowner’s Association, so that those are not having to be maintained by the City
of Carmel.
Karyn Ryg, Carmel Transportation Systems Coordinator:
She said that would
probably fall mostly under the Department of Engineering. She said that the
petitioners should be aware that the materials should be ADA compliant.
Ed Fleming
said that those treatments were included on the landscape plans and that
they would get those handed out.
Matt Griffin, Carmel DOCS:
He said that the street names would have to be
determined and included in the plat and that the petitioners should consult with Bill
Akers to make that determination. He said that they would need the warranty deed
instrument number and their docket number on there. He said that for the City of
Carmel it is a “secondary plat”, not a “final plat”, so that language should be
swapped out on the front page. He said that the petitioners should make sure that
where the crosswalks align were perpendicular and that they perfectly align.
Christine Barton-Holmes, Carmel DOCS:
She said that she had no comments at
this time.
