Board of Zoning Appeals - June 22, 2026

The City of Carmel, Indiana Board of Zoning Appeals held a meeting on June 22, 2026, primarily to consider four variances requested by Leppard Mortuary and Crematory Services for an expansion project at their existing site on North Rangeline Road. The mortuary seeks to add approximately 2,950 square feet to their building, including a multipurpose room and enhanced landscaping features such as a rain garden and water feature. The variances pertain to building frontage, entrance orientation, building height, and setback requirements as dictated by the Rangeline Road Overlay District. The Planning Zoning Office and Department of Community Services both recommended approval, citing improvements to the streetscape and modernization of the facility. The Board voted unanimously to approve all four variances, allowing the expansion to proceed as proposed.
