TO THE
CARMEL CITY COUNCIL
WHEREAS, the Carmel/Clay Plan Commission Authorized
an update of the Comprehensive Plan Update Adopted in
1985, and
WHEREAS, the "Amendment to Comprehensive Plan
Update, City of Carmel/Clay Township, 1990" has been
considered by the Plan Commission, and,
WHEREAS, the update has been limited in scope to
include study and revision of only the areas of the
Comprehensive Plan pertaining to land use and
transportation, and
WHEREAS, a number of meetings and public hearings
have occurred during Steering Committee and Plan
Commission deliberations of proposed amendments to the
1985 Comprehensive Plan Update, and
WHEREAS, large numbers of the public have attended
meetings, answered surveys and spoken out giving their
opinions and recommendations regarding land use and
transportation issues,
NOW THEREFORE, the Plan Commission recommends that
a statement be included in the final text of the amended
plan, acknowledging the public's consensus recommendation
that no change be made to present zoning laws where such
change would result in greater density in housing units
per acre in township areas not serviced by sewers and
water, and
that a statement be included in the final text of
the amended plan acknowledging the public concern
regarding increased traffic congestion and the need to
have continually updated traffic projections upon which
to base public discussion and future Plan Commission,
Board of Zoning Appeals and Carmel City Council decisions
regarding development impacting traffic flow into and out
of the City and Township, and
That in other respects the Plan Commission accepts
the "Amendment to Comprehensive Plan Update, City of
Carmel/Clay Township 1990" and refers it to the Carmel
City Council with a recommendation that it be enacted.
