In the latest episode of the Town of Avon podcast, Angel Gino-Gino, MarComm specialist at Town Hall, teams up with town manager Ryan Cannon to unpack the agenda of the town council meeting from March 14th, 2024. The council navigated through several key zoning amendment introductions crucial for Avon's development. Notably, proposals for a new Wawa convenience store, eight townhomes by Family Promise, and commercial rezoning near Costco were discussed, inviting community members to further engage at the next Town Council meeting happening on March 25th, 2024.
Additionally, the annexation of a one-acre parcel into the Easton Gray PUD hinted at a future dining spot with scenic views, showing Avon's commitment to both expansion and quality of life. Another win for the town was the impressive cost savings on roadside mowing contracts, ensuring well-maintained roads and roundabouts.
Amidst personnel transitions in the Planning Department, proactive steps were taken to maintain project continuity, including on-call planning assistance and welcoming a new planning director, Linda Ahlbrand.
Financial strategy and infrastructure development were also addressed, highlighting the annexation of the Pulte Group property and the roadwork needed for the promising Project Winston, which comes with the prospect of significant job creation and economic growth through a substantial investment in construction and robotics.
As the council gears up for final decisions on annexations at the end of March, the episode reminds residents of opportunities to join the Avon Community Garden and Farmer’s Market, solidifying Avon’s image as a community that not only plans for the future but also cherishes its active, participative present.
The episode closes with personal tidbits from the hosts, emphasizing the vibrancy of Avon life, the care for those affected by recent storms, and well-wishes for the community's spring break plans.
Avon, Indiana, is a safe, vibrant community for active families and thriving businesses. For more information about our town and what is happening, please visit us online at avonindiana.gov 24/7/365!

What's up, town of Avon?
This is Angel Ginogina, the MarCom specialist
here at Town Hall.
And today I'm with--
Ryan Kannon, town manager.
(00:47):
And today we're going to be talking about the town council
meeting that happened last night on March 14.
Ryan, you want to take it away?
Sure, thanks, Angel.
We did have a little bit-- it was actually
a pretty heavy agenda.
The council was very focused and businesslike,
so we got through it relatively quick.
But there is quite a bit of stuff on there,
so hope you're willing to listen to me talk for a little while.
(01:09):
We're ready when you are.
All right, the first item of new business
was we had four introductions of zoning amendments.
The town's unified development ordinance
requires that any property that is interested in being
rezoned actually has to do an introduction before the town
council, before they go to the plan commission.
(01:30):
So if you're listening to this and you
hear anything that is of interest to you,
and you want to know how it goes at the plan commission,
you can show up on March 25 and learn more
about these projects.
So the first one is a Wawa convenience store,
which is being proposed at the corner of 100 North and Dan
Jones Road.
They are looking to go on the corner there.
(01:53):
And so they introduced potentially
rezoning that property from residential to commercial.
They are proposing a 6,300 square foot convenience store.
They refer to it as a neighborhood store,
so it will have a guest facilities as well.
And so they did complete that introduction to the council.
(02:14):
The second one is Family Promise,
which is proposing eight townhomes on property that's
actually owned by the town of Avon,
just south of the Shell, or right across the street
from the Frostbite on Avon Avenue.
It's about an acre property.
And the town had acquired the properties
(02:35):
as part of our right-of-way acquisition
when we did the Avon Avenue Bridge project.
And Family Promise, if you're not aware,
is a wonderful organization that tries
to help assist homeless families in our community.
And so part of that mission is for them
to be able to provide affordable housing.
So again, I direct you to Family Promise
to learn more specifics about it.
(02:55):
But they introduced that to the town council last night.
The third one is a rezoning proposed at 8447 East US
Highway 36, which is just west of Costco Drive,
if you're familiar with where Costco is.
(03:16):
Currently, there are, I believe, two residential houses there.
And this developer was interested in changing
that zoning from an I-2 zoning to a C-2 zoning.
They did not provide any specifics to the town council
last night.
So if you would go and actually listen to the meeting,
you'll hear the council express a little bit of frustration
that they didn't have a conceptual plan or anything.
(03:38):
They just said they wanted to zone the property to C-2.
So that was the feedback that was provided to the council,
was they weren't certain if they had an objection to the C-2,
but they'd like more information about what the developer was
planning to do with the property.
The fourth one is a project most people have probably
heard us talk about, is Easton Gray.
(03:58):
There's a house that was surrounded by the Riverwalk
District in Easton Gray.
And that property owner has decided
to sell to Republic, which is the developer of Easton Gray.
And so it's a one-acre parcel, but it was not
a part of the town of Avon.
So they're asking for it to be annexed.
And then it will become part of the Riverwalk District.
(04:21):
They didn't have a lot of examples
of what they were going to do with the property,
but there was an exhibit, if you're interested in,
go looking on our website.
And there was an exhibit that was attached
that was kind of cool, if you go look at it.
If you guys are familiar with that area,
they said their vision was maybe for it
to be a restaurant that would have a patio,
and it overlooks the entire White Lake Creek.
(04:43):
So it would be a really cool restaurant experience.
So we'll see if that's what transpires from it.
But that rezoning request is to just add it
to the Easton Gray PUD, this one-acre parcel.
So that was all the rezoning requests.
We also had our public works department
ask for permission to award a quote for our roadside mowing.
(05:05):
The town has two separate contracts
that we do for our roadside mowing.
The one we call roadside mowing is
for areas that are not roundabouts
and don't particularly have curbs.
So a lot of the rural areas by farm fields
where there's grass growing,
that's kind of what we refer to as roadside mowing.
We have a second contract that we do
(05:27):
that we kind of refer to as roundabout and road maintenance.
And those are kind of, we want to maintain
our roundabouts at a higher standard
and make sure that they look nice
and presentable for the community.
And so we have a separate contractor
that provides that service.
So we do do seven cycles of roadside mowing every year.
So we do it once a month from basically May to November.
(05:50):
And so this was our request for quotes.
We got quotes from four separate contractors.
The low quote was from Franco for $3,500 a cycle.
This was substantially less expensive
than what we were previously paying,
which was about $15,000 a cycle.
So we got a wonderful price from Franco
(06:12):
and we're excited about that.
Franco had done some work for us in the past.
And so even though the price was substantially lower,
our public works department was comfortable
recommending Franco to be awarded that quote
and the town council approved that recommendation.
So Franco will be doing the town's roadside mowing in 2024.
The next item was the 2024-2025 road salt commitment.
(06:38):
The town actually since 2011 has been working
with the Indiana Department of Transportation
to purchase salt.
NDOT actually does a statewide bid process
in order to get better pricing on salt
for municipalities in the state.
And so in order to do that,
we have to provide a commitment
(06:59):
of what we'll agree to purchase from them.
And then we are required to purchase at least 80%
of whatever that commitment number is.
And we could purchase up to 120% of our commitment number.
So the last three years,
we've purchased 1500 tons of treated salt.
We used about 1500 tons of salt this year
(07:21):
for our snow removal efforts.
And so it was the staff's recommendation
to again acquire 1500 tons of salt
from the state purchasing program
and the town council did approve that.
The last item in new business
was approving planning on-call proposals.
(07:41):
For those of you who are familiar with the town,
you will know that our planning director left in February,
and then our senior planner
is leaving actually today, unfortunately.
And so in order to make sure that we maintain continuity
and we don't lose track of any projects,
I recommended that the town council
enter into two on-call proposals for planning assistance.
(08:04):
The first is with our senior planner
to finish out basically the cases
that he has been working on.
And so he will attend the Board of Zoning Appeals meeting
and he will attend the Planned Commission meeting in March
to make sure that all of those projects
don't slip through the cracks and get through the process.
(08:25):
So we're very appreciative to Ian for doing that,
even though he's moving on to another job.
So that's the first on-call proposal.
The second one is with HWC Engineering,
who is also helping the town with our comprehensive plan.
They also assisted us
in writing our Unified Development Ordinance.
I've asked them to help us transition
(08:45):
to the April Planned Commission cases.
So they are gonna provide some on-call services
and review plans and just stay on top of projects
to make sure nothing slips through their cracks.
Our new planning director will be starting on March 25th.
So that's just about a week away,
and we're excited to have Linda Albrand
as our new planning director.
(09:06):
And so stay tuned for her,
but we're trying to give her some help,
make sure that we're not dumping everything on her
on her first week when she arrives here.
So the town council did approve
both of those on-call proposals.
That was all the new business,
but we did have quite a few resolutions
and ordinances as well.
(09:26):
- Grab some popcorn, everyone.
- Yeah, grab some popcorn, everybody.
Most of these will be a little bit quicker.
So one of the things when we annex property,
state law actually requires
that we have to perform a fiscal plan,
which is the town's policy
on how we will provide services to that annexation area.
The law requires that if we annex an area,
(09:46):
we have to provide the same services
we would provide to that area as any other citizens.
So we hire a financial advisor who helps us prepare
how that will happen,
and then the town council can take that into account
when they're making the decision
on whether to annex a property or not.
So we had two annexations.
We have one for the Pulte Group,
which is asking for a piece of property to be annexed
(10:08):
on 100 South just west of County Road 6,
or I apologize, east of County Road 625 East
on the north side of 100 South.
That's about 23 acres,
and the town council did approve that fiscal,
the resolution for that fiscal plan.
The other one I mentioned earlier
was that one acre parcel for Easton Gray,
(10:29):
which is owned by Pasari,
and the town council adopted that fiscal plan as well.
The next resolution we had was to acquire some right-of-way.
The town is working with two developers, actually,
in the area between 900 and Ronald Reagan Parkway
and north of County Road 200 North and south of the B&O.
(10:52):
There's a new project that's coming in there,
and in order for that project to be accomplished,
a new east-west road,
which will be like a business collector
to basically provide access for those developments
to get out to Ronald Reagan Parkway,
an east-west road needs to be constructed.
That was one of the requirements of the zoning.
(11:13):
Unfortunately, to do that,
the town is gonna need to acquire some right-of-way
to assist that project,
and it's off of the property owner's own property,
and so the town has to kind of be the intermediary there
to acquire that property.
So the town council did authorize staff
to proceed with the acquisition
of the right-of-way needed for that project,
(11:34):
and that means the staff can go get appraisals
and start the process for trying to acquire that property.
The last resolution then is for the same project
that I was just talking about.
It's called Project Winston,
and they are proposing, or they are requesting,
a tax abatement for personal property.
(11:56):
This Project Winston is gonna be a fantastic project
for our community.
It's gonna have 150 million, it's $150 million project,
about 85 million for construction,
$60 million for robotics
that will actually go into the facility,
and it'll create 420 jobs.
So it's an excellent project for our community.
(12:19):
They are asking for a personal property tax abatement
for some of the robotics and computer technology
that they have in the building.
This is relatively typical for projects.
In order to do that, the town council
has to pass a declaratory resolution,
making that area an economic revitalization area,
(12:41):
and the town council did approve that last night.
The next step in that process then will be,
it'll be advertised for a public hearing,
which will occur on April 11th,
and the town council will vote at that point
on whether to provide a tax abatement or not.
We're almost there, Angel.
(13:01):
Wake up. - It's okay.
I'm still awake. - Okay, good.
- I hope you all are awake, too. (laughs)
- The last two are really easy.
They still relate to those two annexations
we talked about earlier.
The town is required to hold a public hearing
on those annexations,
so we had our public hearings last night.
Nobody spoke on either of them.
Unfortunately, no one showed up to provide any input,
(13:22):
so that means that they must be comfortable
with us annexing it,
and then the town council introduced
the ordinances to do that.
The law requires that after the public hearing,
the council must wait 14 days
before adopting the annexation,
so these will come back up
on the March 28th town council meeting for final adoption.
(13:42):
That was all of it.
- That was a lot. - It was a lot.
- All right.
It almost took me longer to explain it
as it took for the council to do it.
(Meghan laughs)
- And the council likes to get down in business
and just bang it out, you know?
- They do, yes.
- All right, just a couple reminders.
(14:03):
The registrations for the Avon Community Garden
are still open,
and if you're interested,
please go to avonindiana.gov/communitygarden.
Again, that's avonindiana.gov/communitygarden.
And also, the registrations for the Avon Farmer's Market
are also open.
If you're interested in that
and wanna be a part of it,
(14:23):
please go to avonindiana.gov/farmersmarket.
Again, that's avonindiana.gov/farmersmarket.
All right, Ryan?
- What are you doing, Angel?
This is my opportunity to ask you a question.
- Oh, gosh.
- What are you excited about for next week?
- Next week, this coming week?
I'm actually gonna be on vacation,
(14:43):
so I will be traveling to Vegas, the West Coast,
and then going to California, LA.
- That's so exciting.
- Yeah, I'm excited just to, you know,
have a different type of environment
and also warm weather, constant warm weather.
- Vegas isn't like Avon?
- If you put it in a casino, I mean.
(15:03):
No, definitely not.
Like, the West Coast is a different type of breed, right?
- It is, it's fun.
You're gonna have a great time.
Good for you. - Thank you.
Thank you, what are you doing?
- I'm gonna work a whole bunch next week.
But the following week--
- You're making me feel bad.
- I'm also gonna go on vacation.
- There it is.
Where are you going? - I hope everyone
has a nice spring break.
I'm going to Phoenix, Arizona.
- Phoenix, we're all going to the West Coast.
(15:25):
I guess it's time to get that warm weather here in Indiana.
- That's right, yes.
- I hope everyone stayed safe, especially with the storm.
Last night I heard there was a couple of houses,
maybe a lot more than a couple,
that were damaged up in Winchester, I believe.
- Yeah, yep.
- I hope everyone stayed safe and dry
and we hope that you have an amazing weekend.
(15:49):
And for those who are on spring break
or have family members that are on spring break
and plan on going on vacation,
we hope you guys stay safe, have fun,
and we hope you guys have a great one.
And don't forget to smile.
We'll see you on the next one.

and it's off of the property owner's own property,
and so the town has to kind of be the intermediary there
to acquire that property.
So the town council did authorize staff
to proceed with the acquisition
of the right-of-way needed for that project,
(11:34):
and that means the staff can go get appraisals
and start the process for trying to acquire that property.
The last resolution then is for the same project
that I was just talking about.
It's called Project Winston,
and they are proposing, or they are requesting,
a tax abatement for personal property.
(11:56):
This Project Winston is gonna be a fantastic project
for our community.
It's gonna have 150 million, it's $150 million project,
about 85 million for construction,
$60 million for robotics
that will actually go into the facility,
and it'll create 420 jobs.
So it's an excellent project for our community.
(12:19):
They are asking for a personal property tax abatement
for some of the robotics and computer technology
that they have in the building.
This is relatively typical for projects.
In order to do that, the town council
has to pass a declaratory resolution,
making that area an economic revitalization area,
(12:41):
and the town council did approve that last night.
The next step in that process then will be,
it'll be advertised for a public hearing,
which will occur on April 11th,
and the town council will vote at that point
on whether to provide a tax abatement or not.
We're almost there, Angel.
(13:01):
Wake up. - It's okay.
I'm still awake. - Okay, good.
- I hope you all are awake, too. (laughs)
- The last two are really easy.
They still relate to those two annexations
we talked about earlier.
The town is required to hold a public hearing
on those annexations,
so we had our public hearings last night.
Nobody spoke on either of them.
Unfortunately, no one showed up to provide any input,
(13:22):
so that means that they must be comfortable
with us annexing it,
and then the town council introduced
the ordinances to do that.
The law requires that after the public hearing,
the council must wait 14 days
before adopting the annexation,
so these will come back up
on the March 28th town council meeting for final adoption.
(13:42):
That was all of it.
- That was a lot. - It was a lot.
- All right.
It almost took me longer to explain it
as it took for the council to do it.
(Meghan laughs)
- And the council likes to get down in business
and just bang it out, you know?
- They do, yes.
- All right, just a couple reminders.
(14:03):
The registrations for the Avon Community Garden
are still open,
and if you're interested,
please go to avonindiana.gov/communitygarden.
Again, that's avonindiana.gov/communitygarden.
And also, the registrations for the Avon Farmer's Market
are also open.
If you're interested in that
and wanna be a part of it,
(14:23):
please go to avonindiana.gov/farmersmarket.
Again, that's avonindiana.gov/farmersmarket.
All right, Ryan?
- What are you doing, Angel?
This is my opportunity to ask you a question.
- Oh, gosh.
- What are you excited about for next week?
- Next week, this coming week?
I'm actually gonna be on vacation,
(14:43):
so I will be traveling to Vegas, the West Coast,
and then going to California, LA.
- That's so exciting.
- Yeah, I'm excited just to, you know,
have a different type of environment
and also warm weather, constant warm weather.
- Vegas isn't like Avon?
- If you put it in a casino, I mean.
(15:03):
No, definitely not.
Like, the West Coast is a different type of breed, right?
- It is, it's fun.
You're gonna have a great time.
Good for you. - Thank you.
Thank you, what are you doing?
- I'm gonna work a whole bunch next week.
But the following week--
- You're making me feel bad.
- I'm also gonna go on vacation.
- There it is.
Where are you going? - I hope everyone
has a nice spring break.
I'm going to Phoenix, Arizona.
- Phoenix, we're all going to the West Coast.
(15:25):
I guess it's time to get that warm weather here in Indiana.
- That's right, yes.
- I hope everyone stayed safe, especially with the storm.
Last night I heard there was a couple of houses,
maybe a lot more than a couple,
that were damaged up in Winchester, I believe.
- Yeah, yep.
- I hope everyone stayed safe and dry
and we hope that you have an amazing weekend.
(15:49):
And for those who are on spring break
or have family members that are on spring break
and plan on going on vacation,
we hope you guys stay safe, have fun,
and we hope you guys have a great one.
And don't forget to smile.
We'll see you on the next one.
