FORT WAYNE, Ind. (WANE) — While a proposed hotel in southwest Fort Wayne has new life on a new lot, it'll have to wait a little longer than expected. On Tuesday, Fort Wayne City Council look at a proposed Courtyard by Marriott project that had already been looked by the government body once before. The hotel would be located at 7610 W. Jefferson Blvd. near Engle and Aboite Center roads. While presenting the project, Michelle Wood with the Allen County Department of Planning Services told Fort Wayne City Council that a new stoplight and potential lanes would be added to the intersection. She also said the developer might pay for them, but 2nd District Councilman Russ Jehl was not satisfied on voting for a rezoning without knowing if the city would foot the bill. "Before I make a policy decision, I want to know the fiscal impact of it," Jehl said. He proposed a weeklong hold to try to secure an agreement from the developer to pay for the controlled intersection, including a traffic light and potential turn lanes. A representative of the developer claimed the intersection is already busy and potentially warrants being controlled even without the addition of the hotel and businesses. "What we did learn throughout this process is that [Fort Wayne City Engineer] Patrick Zaharako said the warrants are already met for a traffic signal," said Patrick Hess, a lawyer who represents the project. "Normally zoning decisions are based on zoning principles and the comprehensive plans and not a cost-benefit analysis. The hold passed by an 8-1 measure meaning the hotel will wait at least another week before seeing any progress. Last April, Fort Wayne City Council shot down the proposed hotel over the height of the building and its location. “I’m going to vote no… the concerns that were presented by the councilman and by the neighbors are valid,” said former 6th District Councilwoman Sharon Tucker after voting no. Now, the Courtyard by Marriott has moved slightly down the road, and the City Council has rezoned a lot to allow construction to begin. "Now they've moved it so it's on the Northwest corner of the same intersection," said Dr. Scott Myers. "The same traffic challenges don't necessarily exist and it's designed to be flatter." Myer's opposition was a signature moment in his first year on City Council, saying, "The consensus of my neighbors in the 4th District is that this building is relatively large for a small lot." He and the rest of the council are much happier with the project now that it no longer needs a special variance for its height, and that it's on a larger lot, but it's still uncertain how the city will move forward next week.
