Clarksville Plan Commission Approves Final Plats and Texas Roadhouse; Postpones Flex Space on April 1, 2026

The Clarksville Plan Commission met on April 1, 2026, at 7:00 p.m. at the Town Municipal Building, 2000 Broadway St, Clarksville, IN, for a regular session. President Wynner presided; Commissioner Smith was absent. The board approved minutes from the March 4, 2026 regular session, then acted on two old-business final plats, one new-business final plat, one new-business development plan, and tabled another development plan. All votes were by voice vote with no opposition noted.

Opening and Minutes Approval

• The Pledge of Allegiance was recited and roll call was taken.
• Minutes of the March 4, 2026 regular session were approved as presented by unanimous voice vote (motion by Commissioner Fisher, second by Commissioner Munich).

Public Comments & Testimony

• No public comments were offered. The chair invited comments for or against each application, and none were received.

Old Business

• SD-26-0002 – Final Plat, Rachell Court, 215 Potters Lane: Clayton Baylor, professional surveyor with Cash Brighton Associates, said the plat had received preliminary approval at the previous meeting; the final plat added the location of the sanitary sewer line. Because the subdivision is over three lots, it required both preliminary and final plat approvals. The commission approved the final plat unanimously. (The agenda spells the property as Rachell Court, while the transcript says Rachel Court.)
• SD-26-0004 – Final Plat, Village of Waterford, 615 Kingsbury Court: Steve Pry of 621 Kingsbury Court presented the amended survey/plat reflecting one building changed from a four-plex to a triplex. He explained that the development had been established as a condominium, and this subdivision plat was needed as a procedural step. The commission approved the final plat unanimously. (The agenda listed John Brinkworth as the representative, while the transcript identifies Steve Pry.)

New Business

• SD-26-0003 – Final Plat, 527 W Stansifer: Nick Hunter, representing the applicant, explained that this is a minor plat dividing one larger lot into three lots to allow three single-family homes. The homes will be rear-loaded with garages accessed from the alley, with no front driveway access from Stansifer. Parks and playgrounds were not applicable. The commission approved the final plat unanimously. (The agenda lists W Stansifer; the transcript refers to West Stanford and Stancyfer.)
• DP-26-0001 – Texas Roadhouse, 4615 Medical Plaza Way: Brandon Goldberg, with Greenberg Farrow of Chicago, presented a development plan for a 9,990-square-foot Texas Roadhouse restaurant. The site will have two entry drive connections to Medical Plaza Way and roughly 288 parking spaces. The site is zoned MED (medical), is about 4.34 acres, and is currently vacant and largely paved. The applicant attended the March TRC, the town civil engineer approved stormwater requirements, the fire marshal approved the revised truck-turning radius, and the applicant attended the Board of Zoning Appeals regarding the proposed pole sign. Staff reported the plan is consistent with the comprehensive plan, develops vacant property, brings jobs, and has no recommended conditions. The applicant said he hoped to start construction in mid-May. The commission approved the development plan unanimously.
• DP-26-0002 – Development Plan for Flex Space, Appleleaf Lane: The commission tabled this item by unanimous voice vote without discussion. (The agenda lists Appleleaf Lane; the transcript says Apple Leaf Lane.)

Key Outcomes

• SD-26-0002 and SD-26-0004 final plats were approved unanimously.
• SD-26-0003 final plat and DP-26-0001 Texas Roadhouse development plan were approved unanimously.
• DP-26-0002 flex space development plan was tabled; no vote on the merits was taken.
• After approving the three final plats, the commission signed all three plats at once before taking up Texas Roadhouse.
• All votes were voice votes; no dissent was recorded. The agenda listed a 7:00 p.m. start; the transcript’s adjournment-time reference is unclear (the chair said “6:15,” but a clock was read as “7:15”).
