Carmel BZA hearing officer approves 95 percent lot coverage variance for 111th and Penn redevelopment project

A Carmel Board of Zoning Appeals hearing officer on Nov. 27 approved a variance to allow a mixed-use development planned on the northeast corner of 111th and Pennsylvania streets to cover 95 percent of the lot rather than a maximum of 80 percent as permitted by city code.

The $700 million project, a partnership between developer Pedcor and the Carmel Redevelopment Commission, is set to include 58 for-sale townhomes, 912 multi-family units, 430,000-square-feet of office space along Pennsylvania Street, two public parking garages and a public park/plaza to anchor the space. It is set to be built in four phases over 15 years.

The variance was approved by Jim Hawkins, a BZA member who served as the hearing officer. His decision may be appealed within 30 days to the full BZA.
