Marie Dubois, hereafter referred to as the applicant, is requesting approval for removal of earth
products from a 32.89-acre parcel of land at 34 Dubois Drive The subject property is located in
the Southeast Quadrant (SEQ) District. Portions of the subject property fall within the
Conservation and Open Space (CO) and the Hinesburg Road North Zone of the Scenic View
Protection Overlay (SV) Districts.
Associate Planner Janet Hurley and Administrative Officer Ray Belair, referred to herein as
Staff, have reviewed the plans submitted on March 24 2003, and have the following
comments. Staff notes that the proposal must comply with both the Zoning Regulations and
the proposed Land Development Regulations.
Staff notes that the applicant submitted the application after being notified that the topsoil
removal operation was occurring in violation of city regulations without the necessary
approvals and permits.
Pursuant to Section 25.117(b) of the Zoning Regulations, the removal of fill, gravel, sand,
loam, topsoil, or other similar material from land in an amount equal to or greater than twenty
(20) cubic yards, except when incidental to or in connection with the construction of a structure
on the same lot, shall require the approval of the Development Review Board (DRB). Pursuant
to Section 25.117(c), an application for topsoil removal shall include the submittal of a site plan
showing the area from which soils will be removed, existing grade, and proposed grade
created by removal of material.
The plans need to be revised to correctly identify the wetland delineation boundaries
and the 50 ft. wetland buffer boundaries.
Wetlands adjacent to the site were delineated by William Countryman Consultants in 2002.
The plans show these adjacent wetlands to the west and south of the proposed topsoil
removal operation. A 50 ft. wetland buffer limit is also delineated. The plans indicate that silt
fencing will be installed along these wetland buffer limits and surrounding each phase of
topsoil removal work. The plans include notes that label the wetland limit lines as "50' wetland
buffer." These two notes should be corrected.
2. Regular weekly inspection, and inspection after storm events, of all silt fencing shall be
performed. Any fence damage or failures discovered must be corrected immediately in
order for removal operations to continue.
Because of the proximity of the proposed topsoil removal operation to adjacent wetlands, it will
be imperative that the silt fencing is monitored routinely and well maintained throughout the
course of the operation. Accordingly, regular weekly inspection and inspection after storm
events need'to be performed on all silt fencing. Any fence damage or failures discovered must
be corrected immediately in order for removal operations to continue.
CITY OF SOUTH BURLINGTON 3 DEPARTMENT OF
DEVELOPMENT REVIEW BOARD PLANNING & ZONING
\drb\misc\dubois\soilremove srp doc
Pursuant to Section 25.117(d), the DRB may impose any conditions it deems necessary,
including, but not limited to, the following:
(i) Duration or phasing of the permit for any length of time.
The plans indicate that the project include twelve phases with each phase taking 2 weeks to
one month to complete. Operations will only occur during dry weather between May 1 and
October 15. Staff believes this is an acceptable schedule.
(ii) Submission of an acceptable plan for the rehabilitation of the site at the conclusion of
the operations, including grading, seeding and planting, fencing drainage, and other
appropriate measures.
The bottom 3 to 4 inches of topsoil will be retained and seeded and mulched after removal is
complete for each phase. Silt fencing will be installed around all topsoil stockpiles that are not
immediately removed. Any stockpile that will remain undisturbed for more than 2 weeks will be
seeded with annual rye. The plans indicate a medium to low erosion potential, but both
nonstructural and structural erosion control measures will be employed. Staff believes that the
plan includes appropriate site protection and restoration measures.
(iii) Provision of a suitable bond or other security adequate to assure compliance with
the provisions of this Section.
3. Prior to the issuance of a zoning permit, the applicant must submit a cost estimate for
site restoration prepared by the applicant's engineer and a corresponding bond or other
form of surety to ensure the completion of restoration work.
Staff recommends that the applicant provide a bond or other form of surety to ensure the
restoration of the site once removal operations are complete. Accordingly, prior to the issuance
of a zoning permit, the applicant must submit a cost estimate for site restoration prepared by
the applicant's engineer.
(iv) Determination of what shall constitute preconstruction grade.
Preconstruction grade is shown on the plans as between 350 ft. above mean sea level
northerly to 330 ft. southerly on the property.
PROPOSED LAND DEVELOPMENT RFGU aTIONS
13.16(A) of the proposed Land Development Regulations stipulates that the "conduct of a
resource extraction operation that involves the removal of loam, gravel, stone, fill, topsoil, sod
or similar substance, except when incidental to or in connection with the construction of a
building on the same lot, shall be permitted in any district, except as limited by the Surface
Water Protection Standards and Interstate Highway Overlay District, subject to site plan
approval by the Development Review Board after public notice."
Pursuant to Section 13.16(B), applications for topsoil removal shall include specific information
pertaining to the following factors and such other information as the DRB may require:
(1) Depth of excavation, in proximity to roads or adjacent properties
CITY OF SOUTH BURLINGTON 4
DEVELOPMENT REVIEW BOARD
DEPARTMENT OF
PLANNING & ZONING
\drb\m isc\dubois\soi [remove.srp doc
The plans indicate that soils are 10 to 12 inches deep, and that 3 to 4 inches will not be
removed. Staff believes this offers appropriate soil retention. Removal activities will begin
about 360 ft. easterly from the end of Dubois Drive.
(2) Existing grade and proposed grade created by removal of material.
As indicated above, preconstruction grade is shown on the plans as between 350 ft. above
mean sea level northerly to 330 ft. southerly on the property. Excavation depth will be 6 to 8
inches.
(3) Effect upon public health and safety.
The plans indicate that the operation will generate 24 trucks trip per day, resulting in a
temporary 4.4% increase in traffic in the vicinity of the adjacent residential subdivision.
Adequate site distance is provided at the Dubois Drive intersection with Hinesburg Road. Staff
does not believe this will result in unhealthy or unsafe conditions.
(4) Creation of a nuisance.
The plans indicate that 12 truckloads of soil will be removed each working day. Hours of
operation will be 7:30 to 4:30 Monday through Friday, and 9:00 to 12:00 on Saturday. Staff
believes that this is a reasonable plan, provided there is no increase in rate of operations on
Saturdays due to the shorter work day.
(5) Effect upon the use of adjacent properties by reason of noise, dust or vibration.
4. The plans need to be revised to include dust control measures that will be used during
removal operations.
Based on the plans submitted, Staff believes that the intensity of the removal operation is
moderate and will not have significant noise and vibration effects on adjacent residential
neighborhood. However, the plans do not include dust control measures.
(6) Effect upon traffic hazards in residential areas or excessive congestion or
physical damage on public ways.
As indicated already, traffic generation from the proposed operation will be moderate. The
proposal will not cause congestion on public roads in the vicinity. Provided drivers abide by
speed limits and load limits, the proposed operation will not cause damage to public roads in
the vicinity.
(7) Erosion potential due to removal of vegetative cover.
As noted already, appropriate erosion control measures are indicated in the plans.
5. The topsoil removal approval shall expire after two seasons of operations at the site.
Section 13.16(C) gives the DRB authority to impose conditions on: (i) the duration of the
permit; (ii) site rehabilitation; (iii) hours of operation, routes of transportation, and amount of
material to be removed; and (iv) provision of a suitable bond or other security adequate to
assure compliance with the provisions of this section. As indicated already, Staff believes there
CITY OF SOUTH BURLINGTON 5 DEPARTMENT OF
DEVELOPMENT REVIEW BOARD PLANNING & ZONING
\drb\misc\dubois\soi[remove.sr .doc
is an adequate restoration plan, hours of operation and transportation routes are appropriate;
amount of material to be removed is acceptable; and the applicant should post a bond or other
form of surety to guarantee restoration work. In addition, Staff recommends issuing a two year
approval for the topsoil removal operation.
RECOMMENDATION
Staff recommends that the DRB approve this topsoil removal plan, conditional upon the applicant
addressing the numbered items in the "Comments" section above to the satisfaction of staff prior to
the issuance of a zoning permit.
Respectfully submitted,
Janet M. Hurley, Associate Planner

• Slope varies from '/2% to 5%
• Ridge runs from southwest to northeast
• No utilities, roads or buildings on the parcel
• Access from cul-de-sac at the end of DuBois Drive in a residential subdivision
Soils and Vegetation
• Parcel is an existing mowed hay field
• Surrounding vegetation includes wooded wetlands, shrub wetlands, wooded
uplands, and reverting meadow
• Soil is Vergennes clay, which is highly erodable
OPERATION
• Stripping will occur in 12 phases, 1.53 to 2.94 acres
• Each phase will take 2 weeks to 1 month to complete (from rototilling to seeding),
depending on weather and the demand for topsoil
• Construction vehicles will access the meadow via the existing unimproved farm
road starting at the existing cul-de-sac at the end of DuBois Drive through the
wetland buffer
• The topsoil is 10 to 12 inches deep, and the bottom 3 to 4 inches will not be
removed
• The next phase will commence only when 75% of the previous phase has been
completed
• Each phase will consist of rototilling, spreading 4 to 6 inches of sand over area,
rototilling again, pushing up sand and topsoil into a pile to screen out the larger
stones and unbroken sod, removing mixture by truck, york raking disturbed area,
and seeding
• Timing: the operations will only occur during dry weather
