Docket No. 07070059 DP /ADLS: 531 S Guilford Rd The applicant seeks site plan and design approval for 33 single family homes on 6 acres. The site is located at 531 S Guilford Rd. and is zoned B -7 /Business. Filed by Justin Moffett of Uptown Partners, LLC. Jim Shinaver presented for the petitioner. He was accompanied by Jim Shields and Eric Carter of Weihe Engineering. This is a residential project that is in an area that is zoned B7 commercial; we are seeking a use variance to permit single family, detached housing. The site is located at 531. S. Guilford Rd. Just west of our development is an apartment complex and just south and adjacent to us is a condominium development. Nick Redden- Engineering We are still reviewing the plans and we will get our comments to you as soon as we are able. David Lucas, Hamilton County Highway Dept. No comment. Judy Hagan, Parks Representative, no comment. Shirley Hunter Duke Energy, indicated she noticed areas that do not have utility easements. Eric Carter indicated that the plans are still in the beginning stage and will be more complete when the project returns to TAC. Shirley indicated that Duke has no problems with the rezone. Jerry Liston, Count Surveyor's Office, indicated that Greg Hoyes sent out a letter and asked if they had any questions. Eric replied that they had spoken with Greg about some issues and drainage concerns to the north. We have also met with Gary Duncan about these drainage issues. Scott Brewer DOCS, just reviewed plans yesterday and sent an email last night to Eric. Eric responded to Scott's question about an easement. Eric responded that the easement along the south end where we are showing the 15 ft. temporary and the 40ft right of way these are pre- existing, and we will be requesting release of those from the City. Eric outline the tree preservation area will be in the common area in the center where we have the trees, between units 11 33. This was not identified as preservation area Scott indicated that as the plans change he will have more comments. Jim Shinaver indicated that he thought it would be helpful to have Scott walk the site with Cheryl ?last name) as he did at the Cobblestone development. Jim will suggest this to Justin Moffitt. Scott discussed the buffer on the east side, which appears to be taken out. Scott indicated to the group that neighbors can become upset if they lose their buffer between neighborhoods. Eric indicated that they do have a 10 ft. buffer in from the road, around the perimeter and the open space is 21 after construction. It is our client's intent to maintain that buffer and not have buildings right at the back for that very reason. Chris Ellison, Carmel Fire Department, indicated he had met with Jim Shinaver last week to discuss the project. Chris asked that he be kept up to date on any changes. Ryan Hartman CTRWD, out of his jurisdiction. David Littlejohn -DOCS has sent a letter to Justin Moffitt and mentioned that the City will require 5 ft. sidewalk on each side of the interior streets, connections to the exterior path on both sides of the street and ADA compliant ramps. Eric on the main entry blvd. we are proposing a sidewalk on the north side, but not on both sides of the main blvd. it is one of the questions. This is not the typical residential subdivision. David indicated that if you are not going to put in a sidewalk on both side you would need a waiver or a variance. Angie indicated it would be a subdivision waiver. David also requested in his letter to Justin to make as many connections on the interior sidewalks as possible. David reviewed on a visual where connections could be made. Discussion was held on possible connections as the plans progress. Angie Conn DOCS, sent a review letter, no other comments at this time. Christine Barton Holmes -DOCS will be sending a review. She discussed the detention area, it appears to just be a box of water and the City would like to see it as more of amenity, just have walks go around the water and make it look more natural. The City also asked that trees be preserved as much as possible and the use of pervious pavers would be encouraged. Christine indicated that it appears that the sign encroaches into the right of way; this would need to be moved back and put into a dedicated easement. Regarding the house design, the City would like to see setback averaging, and staggering the houses a few feet on the lots and adding porches on some, so that there is less regimentation, particularly on Guilford. On the site plan submitted to the BZA please add the variance to the plan. Eric responded that the pond /amenity feature, on the plan that was submitted did not accurately represent what our vision is. It is our plan to do a retaining /block wall 3 -4 ft. high all around with a handrail, similar to the Monon setting. The staggering issue, it is a really tight situation with the footprints. Some staggering may be possible. Eric also indicated that the brick sign is pre- existing. New signage and possible variances will be discussed at a later time. 9:35 a.m. Docket No. 07070038 PP: Patel Estates The applicant seeks primary plat approval for 2 lots on 5.04 acres.

Filed by Matt Skelton of Baker Daniels LLP for 56th Development, LLC. Matt Skelton presented for the petitioner, 56 Development. He was accompanied by Mario Guerra of SEA Group, Mark Humphrey, Builder, Jud Scott or Vine Branch. We are proposing a primary plat for Chesterton Woods. It is approximately 9 acres in size. It is located at 2405 E. 99 Street. We are proposing 14 custom home lots, one of which includes an existing house which is in the SW corner of the property today. We have requested three waivers, but at this time we may only need 2 waivers. The fifty ft. road frontage has been addressed by redesign. So we are only concerning ourselves with percent of woodland clearing and street curvature radius waivers. We have had preliminary discussions with the Engineering Department regarding the curvature radius, and the wooded area waiver; we are not sure how much of a waiver we are requesting yet. We have had a woodland analysis completed which I will leave with you today. Nick Redden- Engineering We are still reviewing the plans and we will get our comments to you as soon as we are able. David Lucus Hamilton Co. Highway Dept., no comment. Judy Hagan, Parks Representative, no park issues. Shirley Hunter Duke Energy, we typically wait until the secondary plat for request for service. Jerry Liston, Hamilton County Surveyor's Office, this project does not currently fall into a regulating drain watershed, but according to Greg Hoyes letter, it appears that the outlet is going into a roadside ditch. Just to make you aware back in 1981, when this property was in the County's jurisdiction, there was a petition by the Chesterton property owners asking for drainage help, and plans were prepared for that. Those plans would give that development an outlet, but due to the cost at the time, the property owners remonstrated against it. Matt Skelton asked if the cost would have been borne by the property owners. Jerry indicated that this would be the case. The petitioned the county drainage board for that, and when they found out the cost there was a heavy remonstrance to it. Please coordinate with Carmel and try to get a decent outlet. The area south of your proposed development has a history of drainage problems back to the 1970's. Mark Humphrey responded that yesterday, they had a vac truck; there was a dry well just south of the project. We were curious to see if it was tied into any outlet. It was dry vac'd out down to the stones and it is just a standard dry well. We are now reviewing our options as to where our outlet is going to go, and if we can coordinate we will take care of the problem just south of our property. We will take a look at the plans that were previously prepared and see if this can happen and we may speak to someone in the planning of the Aramore project and see if we can utilize coordination to get this properly drained. We do know that north or the project is not an option, it is higher ground and heavily wooded. We feel confident we can resolve our outlet issue and possibly take care of what is going into the southern piece below. Scott Brewer— DOCS, Just received the plans yesterday and have received more updated plans this morning. Scott indicated it looks like the site is 100% mature woods Jud Scott corrected Scott by indicating that the area is 100% wooded, but it is his opinion that they are interspersed with primarily young woodlands. Scott indicated that the plans do not look like there are any preservation areas, except what lots are wooded, but know tree preservation areas associated with it. In fact, the whole common area is a drainage utility easement. The site plan that Scott received was reviewed. Matt Skelton indicated that they do have a plan that shows preservation of the existing tree areas, we will come up with individual standards for each of the lots, not only preservation, but to maximize the aesthetic quality of each of the lots. On the second page of the site plan, it shows the areas that we are proposing to have that special treatment. If there is tweaking to be done, we can do that. Scott stressed that the underlying area is one that at any time can be ripped up for sewer or drainage easement doesn't have to be preserved. Matt indicated they will work with you on this. Scott requested more time to look through the plans, and will have further comments after his review. Chris Ellison, Carmel Fire Department, did not notice any fire hydrants marked on the plans and asked if this had been finalized. The site plan was reviewed, and hydrants pointed out on the visual. There is a 16" water main south of 991h St. We are just connecting a loop around our street. Chris responded that the petitioner needs to have steamer connections on large diameter discharge and blue reflecting devices are installed at the hydrant locations. Ryan Hartman CTRWD, one main issue is that you are planning to tie into a temporary lift station at Walden Pond... We are looking into this, but may request that the flow go east instead of west so that we can that lift station off line. We do have capacity going west, but we would like to get as many lift stations off line as possible. Out master plan shows us taking that master plan to the east toward Keystone. David Littlejohn -DOCS sent a letter to Matt mentioning 5 ft. sidewalks on each side of internal streets, connectivity around the site, the preference of an asphalt path instead of crushed stone and ADA compliant ramps. Matt indicated it would be best to have a meeting with himself, Jud, Scott, Scott Brewer and David to review the plan and come up with the best solution regarding material for the path. Angie Conn DOCS, sent a letter and has no additional comments at this time Christine Barton Holmes -DOCS, had no comments at this time.
