10/21/24 - Hammond Plan Commission Meeting

The City of Hammond Plan Commission convened on October 21, 2024, primarily to review and approve a subdivision plat for a new climate-controlled self-storage facility at 6303 Calumet Avenue. The petitioner, representing U-Haul, sought approval for a one-lot subdivision and dedication of additional right-of-way, addressing concerns related to alleyway access and curb cuts in coordination with INDOT. The commission discussed potential impacts on existing U-Haul locations and propane services, though no final decisions were made on those aspects. After a public hearing with no comments, the staff recommended approval of the subdivision plat, which the commission adopted unanimously, allowing the project to proceed. No other significant procurement, contracting, or budget matters were discussed during this meeting.
