Noblesville Board of Zoning Appeals - 10/5/26

The City of Noblesville Board of Zoning Appeals met on October 5, 2026. The board continued the development-standards variance request for 16415 Grey Road to its December meeting. The applicant wants to demolish the residence while retaining an 840-square-foot accessory building for personal storage, but objected to the required Grey Road right-of-way dedication. Staff explained that a separate variance application is needed to seek relief from that requirement; the applicant agreed to continue the matter and file the additional application. The transcript also records approval motions for earlier agenda items at 16280 Cherry Tree Road and 6818 O’Hara Court, but does not provide enough detail to identify their subject matter.

The board approved, by a five-member vote, applications concerning McGavoc Power at 2280 Westfield Road. The approvals included conditional uses for the business’s existing equipment sales, service, and outdoor display, along with variances related to the State Road 32 overlay and landscaping standards. The approvals support a proposed 9,000-square-foot showroom addition and a later 7,200-square-foot pole barn; staff noted that the outdoor display area would not expand. No procurement activity, contract awards, or purchasing decisions were identified.
