Planners To Review Warsaw Crossing

By Joe Kirkendall, Times-Union staff writer-

A preliminary plat request will be reviewed tonight by the Warsaw Plan Commission for a Warsaw Crossing subdivision along Ind. 15 near Kohl's.

Commission approval of the project would allow for five commercial lots on the 12.7 acre property at the southwest corner of Ind. 15 and Sheldon Drive.

Additional development would increase traffic congestion in the area, which has seen a drastic rise in activity due to such businesses as Walmart and Lowe's moving into the area in the last five years.

Warsaw currently is working with the Indiana Department of Transportation to install stoplights at necessary intersections and also plans to place deceleration lanes in troubled areas along Ind. 15.

City Planner Jeremy Skinner recommended approving the Warsaw Crossing subdivision, with conditions that the petitioner follow city requirements for the placement of storm and sanitary sewer lines on the property.

Tonight's subdivision request is the second the commission has seen this year, the first being a 113-lot residential subdivision north of Harrison Elementary, which was approved.

Commission members are Joe Thallemer, Jeff Grose, Lacy Francis, Tammy Dalton, Jim Gast, Alan Clingan and Rick Keeven. [[In-content Ad]]
