The Fishers Plan Commission listened to proposals from the city staff on commercial open space standards, and decided to allow the Fishers City Council to make the final decision.

Plan Commission members listened to proposals by Fishers Planning and Zoning Director Tony Bagato, who was following-up on language in the 2040 city comprehensive plan.  The debate centered on how fee structures for open commercial space would impact business entrepreneurs and small business owners.

After a lively discussion, commission members voted unanimously to bring the proposals before the Fishers City Council for a final decision.

In other Plan Commission actions Wednesday night:

–Warren Harling will once again serve as president of the plan commission and Pete Peterson will be vice president.

–The commission voted unanimously to accept a letter from Woods of Britton, withdrawing their proposal for a second phase of the apartment complex.

–The former Ram Restaurant location near 126th Street and State Road 37 received a favorable recommendation from the commission to change rules allowing a dental office and perhaps other tenants to use that property.
