Plan Commission Approves Changes to Horton PUD
The Danville Plan Commission meeting met on Monday May 10 with two items on the agenda. The first item was a request to remove some commitments that were made to a landowner during the rezoning process of the adjacent Camden Creek subdivision along County Road 300 East. After a short back and forth with Camden Creek representative, Mike Sells of Wonderwall Land Development Services, the plan commission voted unanimously to approve the request. The second item was the return of the familiar Miles Farm mixed use project on the Town’s west side. Since the petitioner, D.R. Horton had made significant changes to the Planned Unit Development (PUD) at the last Council meeting, the Town’s attorney recommended the petition be sent back to the plan commission for their approval of the changes. Town attorney Chou-il Lee made the plan commission aware that they did not have to open this up for public comment as the changes were even more restrictive than what the plan commission had voted on earlier. Plan Commission President, Tommy Thompson agreed to give the public an opportunity to speak if they kept their comments to only the changes that were made. The remonstrance brought up the same concerns as before, but they are now represented by Zionsville attorney, Mike Andreoli. Mr. Andreoli pleaded with the plan commission to give them more time to look at and analyze the recent changes to the PUD. After hearing from the petitioner and the remonstrance, the plan commission voted 6-1 to send a favorable recommendation to the Town Council for approval of the rezoning. The Town Council will hear the rezoning at the next regularly scheduled Town Council meeting, Wednesday, May 19, at the Town Hall. ______________________________________________
