PLANNING COMMISSION
3 NOVEMBER 1987
PAGE 2
1. A new landscaping plan valued at $29,750 shall be
submitted to the City Planner for approval prior to permit.
This plan shall show berms along Airport Drive and the berms
shall count towards the landscaping cost. A bond for this
amount shall be posted prior to permit.
2. The Dawn Court road opening shall be closed by removing
the existing curb radii and constructing a concrete barrier
curb.
3. The curb around the paved road shall extend around the
intersection radius and to the parking lot entrance.
4. Prior to permit, the City of Burlington shall rectify the
landscaping requirement under the previous permit �2y sub-
stituting a bond for the cash.
5. The looped water system shall be completed and the last
hydrant installed in accordance with the previously approved
plan.
—
6. A 405 gpd sewer allocation is granted in accordance with
the South Burlington Sewer Policy. The $2.50 per gallon fee
shall be paid prior to permit.
7. The building permit shall be obtained within 6 months or
this approval is null and void.
Mr. Burgess seconded the motion which passed unanimously.
Mr. Jacob read into the record a letter from Zoning Admin-
istrator Richard Ward setting out height requirements for the
house being built at 13 Deerfield Road, near the Spear St.
overlook.
3. Sketch plan application of Robert Blanchard for a planned
unit development consisting of 9 residential units including
an existing duplex and conversion of an existing shop to a
single family home and subdivision of a .44 acre lot with
existing house located on the Degraff property 355-361
Patchen Road.
Mr. Blanchard explained there will be public water and sewer.
The soils are excellent for drainage, and the City is already
using some of the site as a drainage swale. He felt the 7
additional units wouldn't affect traffic unduly. The
existing driveway will be reduced to something more reason-
able. He stressed he is trying to maintain the area as res-
idential and will make the current building a conforming use.
PLANNING COMMISSION
3 NOVEMBER 1987
PAGE 3
The homes will be "beginning" or "retirement" houses for
people who want a good quiet place, modestly priced. The
area will connect to the footpath. Mr. Blanchard said they
would prefer a private street which he considered a "drive"
rather than a road. It is 130 ft. long and would be built to
city standards. The 60 foot right of way, he said, is phys-
ically impossible. He preferred no curbs to be consistent
with the rest of the neighborhood. Mr. Blanchard quoted from
the Master Plan regarding moderately priced homes in a res-
idential neighborhood and stressed again that he and other
residents of the area are very concerned to keep the neigh-
borhood residential.
Mr. Blanchard mentioned a I road proposed in the Master
Plan which would require a dedication from this property and the Commission
suggested Mrs. Lafleur check with the City Council to see if
they still want to pursue this.
Mrs. Maher said she did not think this was truly a p.u.d. and
felt there was too much building for this piece of land. She
noted the City Manager felt there should be only 1 unit. The
land is R-4 with a lot of slopes and a lot of CO land. Mrs.
Hurd said she did not like the parking spaces that back onto
the road. Mrs. Lafleur noted that 1 unit does not meet the
setback. Mrs. Hurd said she didn't think the single family
home fit into the p.u.d. scheme.
Mrs. Alger said she and the neighbors like the plan as the
houses don't appear to be on top of each other. Mr.
Blanchard showed an alternate conception in which the houses
meet the setbacks but the garages do not. The road would
still be 25 ft. and would not allow fire trucks to turn
around. Mr. Jacob suggested taking down the body shop to get
the 60-foot right of way.
A poll of members elicited the following: Mrs. Hurd wanted
city streets and cul de sac. She did not want parking
backing onto the cul de sac. Ms. Pugh didn't see the plan as
a p.u.d. and felt only 3/4 of the land should be the p.u.d.
part. Mr. Burgess wanted a city street but might accept it
narrower if it could be maintained by the city. He didn't
feel the 60-foot right of way was needed. He also felt 6
units were too many. Mrs. Maher felt the body shop should be
removed, and the single family house should be removed from
the plan. She wanted a city street within recommendations of
the City Manager. There must be a snow removal plan. She
felt the units were too close together. Mrs. Lafleur noted
the Fire Chief will require 30 ft. between buildings.
Mrs. Alger noted that 27 years ago a sidewalk was approved

for Patchen Rd, but was put elsewhere. She did not feel this
developer should have to pay for the Patchen Rd. sidewalk.
4. Continue Public Hearing on Miscelaneous Amendments to the
Zoning Regulations
Section 18.103: Mrs. Lafleur said the City Attorney feels
the language already means a street extension but will check
with him again regarding setbacks from a proposed street or
extention.
Mr. Dicovitski said he has a real dilemma regarding planned
roads through Corporate Circle. A plan he saw also saw roads
going through Lake Buick, the school, etc. Mrs. Lafleur
noted the plan has been presented to the City Council but has
not yet been approved.
18.110: This would open the range of conditional used. The
question is whether the Commission wants to do this. Mr.
Jacob said if the owner in the middle won't merge his lot, he
can hold the adjacent owners hostage. Mr. Burgess felt the
Commission would probably turn down inappropriate uses
because of traffic, access, etc. In a vote which followed,
members chose to leave the section in by a vote of 3-2.
18.112A: Members agreed to include chimneys in the 35 foot
maximum height.
19.103, 19.20b, 19.254: Members accepted the new language.
19.152 - Density Calculations: The new wording gives a range
of density and gives the Commission the right to cut down on
density when appropriate. Mr. Dicovitski felt this would
downzone 50% for some uses. Mrs. Maher said this was not
true. Mr. Dicovitski felt there should be a better way to
handle this. Mrs. Lafleur said this way gives and range and
allows the developer to negotiate within that range. Members
agreed to leave the wording as proposed.
19.253c: This is a change in parking requirements for recre-
ational vehicles. A definition of recreatonal vehicles will
be added.
Parking Standards: Requirements for restaurants have been
increased. More guest spaces will be required in multi-
family housing developments. Mrs. Lafleur said developers
should be told not to number parking spaces for specific
untis as it defeats the purpose.
Noise Standard: This is taken from the Essex Ordinance. Mr.

2) FAA CONTROL TOWER, AIRPORT DRIVE
The FAA did not apply for their building permit within the 6
month approval period and did not request an extension within
that time. This project has only changed slightly since the
earlier approval.
The FAA proposes to construct a 9600.,square foot Air Traffic
Control Tower and support facility at the airport on Airport
Drive. It will be located between the northern end of the
terminal and the approved AFSS building and will be connected to
the AFSS building by a walkway. The tower will be 90 feet high
and the height was approved by the Zoning Board of Adjustment.
Access: Access is shown from the road that serves the front of
the terminal and the AFSS building.
Circulation: Circulation is adequate in the parking lot.
Parking: The plans show 40 parking spaces in addition to the
spaces that were approved for the AFSS.
Landscaping: The proposed construction requires $29,750 in new
landscaping. The plan is valued at approximately $15,000. The
Planning Commission required the FAA to build a berm along
Airport Drive and to landscape it.
Other: See minutes from earlier approval. The sidewalk within
the parking lot has been removed.
3) DEGRAFF PROPERTY, 355-361 PATCHEN ROAD (SPRUCE RIDGE
CONDOMINIUMS)
PLEASE VISIT THIS SITE PRIOR TO THE MEETING
Robert Blanchard proposes to subdivide the DeGraff property into
two lots. One .44 acre lot will have the existing two stori-
single-family home. The other lot will be for a p.u.d. consist-
ing of the existing duplex, conversion of the autobody shop to a
single-family home (in which Mr. Blanchard will locate his design
studio as a home occupation) and construction of 6 single-family
condominium homes. The garage will be removed. The property is
zoned Residential-4 and is located two properties north of the
cemetery and just south of Frank Cota's property on the west side
of Patchen Road.
� I1 .
Memorandum - Planning
October 30, 1987
Page 2
Density: The 2.68 acre lot can have a maximum density of 11
units. The minimum density is 3 units (2.68 acres minus 1.66
acres for slopes/CO zone etc. = 1.02 minus 15% for streets = .87
x 4 units/acre = 3 units).
Access and Streets. The existing single-family home will main-
tain its present access on Patchen Road. It sitro, very close to
the road. The duplex and converted body shop building will be
served by a 25 foot wide paved street within a 35 foot r.o.w.
This street will extend to a 70 foot diameter cul de sac to serve
5 single-family homes with attached garages. This does not meet
our standard for a public street and a private street is
requested. No curbing is shown. The Commission should discuss
what standards will be required for the street in this project.
One single-family home will be located north of the DeGraff house
and will have a separate driveway. This will be located on the
top of the bank with some regrading required. The five driveways
off the cul de sac are so close to each other that almost all of
the cul de sac is open to driveways.
Parking: Each unit requires 2 parking spaces plus 1 for every 6
for guests. This requirement is met with 1 space in each garage
plus one space next to each garage in the new units as well as 2
extra spaces in small lots for guests and existing units.
Landscaping: The plan shows a landscaped mound in front of the
body shop and trees around the cul de sac. A complete land-
scaping plan is required at preliminary plat. Street trees are
required if this is a public street.
Sidewalks and Trails: A contribution to the Patchen Road side-
walk fund should be made in lieu of constructing a sidewalk along
the frontage. A pedestrian trail link is planned in this area
along the southeastern boundary abutting the cemetery. Mr.
Blanchard is willing to dedicate this and to offer a link to his
street so that it is usable since it ends at the Alger property.
Other: A 3150 gpd sewer allocation is needed for the 7 new units
and the $2.50 per gallon fee paid prior to permit. Legal docu-
ments for street maintenance waivers (if private streets are
allowed) or deeds (if public streets are required) are needed
prior to permit. A traffic study should be required and the
development intersection as well as Patchen/Kirby Road, Patchen/-
White Street and Hinesburg Road/Williston Road intersections
should be studied.

3. SPRUCE RIDGE DEVELOPMENT, PATCHEN ROAD
1. Street is very sub -standard to be public. Cul-de-sac and
most of the street has little or no room for snow storage.
2. Site is too restricted for the proposed layout. It should be
limited to one structure instead of six.
