Planners Review Kohl's Design
July 28, 2016 at 4:25 p.m.
Development and site plans for the 68,727-square-foot Kohl's store at Ind. 15N and CR 300N were approved by the Warsaw Plan Commission Tuesday.
Submitted by Thompson Thrift Management, construction is expected on the Brandt-Nye property. Paul Thrift said the company plans to start building early next year and open in 2005, too.
Plans call for a 495-space parking lot situated north to south on the east side of the 5.85 acres of Lot 1A and the 3.73 acres of Lot 1B. The Kohl's building will be 68,727 square feet. Plans are to build an additional 30,000-square-foot retail space in the future.
Approval was contingent upon the resolution of traffic lanes along CR 300N. Some concern has been raised about the possible conflict between cars entering and exiting the east entrance and exit according to Jeremy Spinner's comments. The developer has agreed to provide a condition with the approval that would block the first parking row on the east side if a conflict does occur.
An amendment to the Alfred and Marilyn Brandt and John Nye plat, corner of CR 300N and Ind. 15N, was approved. Two outlots, the size of lots 1A and B, and Lots 2 and 3 were approved.
The board also:
• Approved a plat for Tigers Retreat, a planned unit development west of County Farm Road, south of Salman Drive.
Prospective property owner Biggs Inc. plans a 32-lot PUD on 12.96 acres. The approval is contingent upon giving "Sunset Court" another name; placement of signage and construction of a sidewalk along the west side of Ranch Road.
Developer Scott Locke asked that sidewalk construction be delayed because of the financial burden. The commissioners agreed, delaying the sidewalk one year.
• Approved request by Don Scearce to extend Mariners Drive 360 feet to the north, adding sewer lines and storm water drainage.
Board member Lacy Francis, who is the city's public works superintendent, said the plans he saw indicated a water line also would be installed on the east side of the extension. He asked that the approval include the water line so the road doesn't have to be under construction again.
• Tabled plans by David Baldwin to develop a "Best Deals Auto Sales" lot at 2942E U.S. 30 on 2.7 acres.
The commissioners asked that Baldwin return to the building and planning department and submit a detailed site plans as required by ordinance.
Plan Commission members are Joe Thallemer, Jeff Grose, Alan Clingan, Lacy Francis, Richard Keeven, Jim Gast and Tammy Dalton. [[In-content Ad]]
