9. Docket No. 06050001 Z: Legacy /East Carmel PUD Rezone
The applicant seeks to rezone 509.234 acres from S -1 to Planned Unit Development for
the purpose of creating a primarily residential, mixed -use development.
The site is located north of 126 Street, south of 146 Street, and on either side of River
Road. Filed by Steve Pittman and Paul Rioux of Pittman Properties.
The applicant is requesting approval of a Planned Unit Development to allow the construction of
a mixed -use development comprised of single family detached and attached, multi family, retail,
and commercial uses. The project is a new development on the property commonly referred to as
the Earlham property. Please refer to the draft ordinance, proposed site plan, and supporting
materials submitted with the packet mailing for full details.
The public hearing for this item was held at the June 20 Plan Commission meeting, and left
open. Concerns included density, increase of traffic, quality of the multi family housing, and a
desire to see more pocket parks and usable open space for each district.
This proposal was discussed at the June 29 August 1 October 3 and October 24 Special
Studies Committee Meetings.
At the last committee meeting, the petitioner presented updated exhibits, and the architectural
standards and regulations per use. These items were reviewed in detail by the committee and
staff. At this meeting, the review will focus on the following items:
1. Use List.
2. PUD Language (as much as possible)
The Department recommends that this item be further discussed and reviewed at the
December 5 Special Studies meeting. Depending on the amount of review at this meeting,
it may be advisable to coordinate an additional "Special" meeting to review materials and
revisions.
