Lafleur, City Planner RE: May 31, 1988 Agenda Items DATE: May 27, 1988 2. Synon Group Subdivision, Cupola Golf Course, Quarry Hill Road The Synon Group proposes to subdivide a 1.55 acre parcel from the 26+ acre golf course property. The area is zoned Residential Seven. r V_ �J �l Streets: Access is proposed from Quarry Hill Road that also serves Horizon Heights and the Quarry Hill Club. In the Horizon Heights approval it is clear that the road must be upgraded to a City Street upon any further development in 'this area. Ralph Deslauriers is requesting that this upgrading be phased with development of this lot and additional lots. I believe the street should be 30 feet of pavement width with curbs and sidewalk on one side with no waiver to this requirement. (See enclosed minutes from 1976 and 1977.) Utilities: The plans show sewer lines. Water has not been located accurately yet but should be shown prior to recording. See Bill Szymanski's comments regarding this. Other: As requested by the Planning Commission at sketch plan, the closest Horizon Heights building is shown on the subdivision plan. The Zoning boundaries are not shown but should be available at the meeting as the Commission requested. See Bill Szymanski's comment �pkves�4-ttao 3. Synon Group Day Care, Quarry Hill Road AAA The Synon Group proposes to construct a 9800 square foot daycare/office building on two floors (4900 square feet per floor) for MCHV. The property is zoned R7 and this conditional use was approved by the Zoning Board. Access: Access is shown from Quarry Hill Road. This should be upgraded to a City Street and a bond posted prior to permit. The driveway into the property is 22 feet wide. Circulation: Circulation is shown on two sides of the building with a cul de sac / drop off area on the south side of the building. 1 C 5/31/88 JBL MOTION OF APPROVAL I move that the South Burlington Planning Commission approve the Final Plat application of the Synon Group, Peter Doremus, agent for subdivision of a 1.51 acre parcel from the Cupola Golf Course property located south of Gaynes as depicted on a plan entitled "Final Plat: Synon Group, Quarry Hill Road, South Burlington, VT" prepared by Krebs and Lansing, dated May 1988 with the following stipulations: 1) Quarry Hill Road shall be constructed to City standards with 30 feet of pavement, curbs and a sidewalk on one side from Spear Street to the Quarry Hill Club parking lot A bond shall be posted for this prior to permit for an development or construction. 2) Legal documents for the offer of dedica ion and deed for Quarry Hill Road shall be submitted to the ity Attorney for approval prior to permit. 3 ) The water and sewer lines shall be sho to recording. 4) It is the applicants responsibility to within 90 days or this approval is null a approved by the Planner and signed by the the Commission prior to recording. on the plans prior scord the final plat void.

Lafleur, City Planner PLANNING COMMISSION 12 April 1988 page 3 there be adequate space to park behind the garages and not have cars be on city property. She said she would be more comfortable with a 25 ft. setback. The Fire Chief, however, said he would prefer a 10 foot front yard setback so he can set up equipment in a paved area and reach the building with his ladder. Mr. Hausner said there will be wide spaces between buildings where the Chief could set up. Mrs. Lafleur noted the City Manager wants at least 20 feet for a setback. Members were split on their feelings about the 20 ft. setback. The applicant is proposing decorative ponds for the project, and the City Manager has expressed concern about mosquito breeding, etc. Mr. Hausner said they will pump water through the ponds and keep fish in them. They will be a minimum of 6 ft. deep and will be kept healthy. Members stressed that there will be a stipulation that garages may not be converted to additional living space as parking is already a question. 4. Sketch plan application of Lawrence Rozzi for a two -lot subdivision of a 2.048 acre property with existing buildings, 2041 Williston Rd. Nancy Knox, landscape engineer, explained there are now 3 buildings on the site: Dr. Peet's chiropractic offic, the Coffee Express building, and a storage and light manufacturing building for boat canvas. The proposal is to divide the lot in half so the Peets can purchase their lot. The minimum lot size would be 40,000 sq. ft. The other lot would be 49,000 sq. ft.• The plan would separate Dr. Peet's traffic circulation from that of the other buildings. There are now 2 curb cuts which would be reduced to one. The remaining cut would also be narrowed. The access between Dr. Peet's building and the Coffee Express would be closed. Lou Rozzi will retain ownership of the back lot. Mrs. Hurd expressed concern with creating 2 odd -shaped lots which the Commission has been trying to eliminate. Mrs. Maher agreed. Dr. Peet said they want the area to look more professional and they can't upgrade until they own their building. Mr. Brooks felt this was the best subdivision plan as it would save a majority of large trees. Mrs. Lafelur noted the Fire Chief is concerned with having an area to serve the Coffee Express building. Members were unanimous in their opposition to the plan. 5. Sketch plan application of the�Synon Groui bor a 2-lot subdi- vision of the 26 acre Cupola Golf Course Property into a 24.6 acre parcel and a 1.4 acre parcel, 360 Spear Street. Peter Doremus said a group of investors would like to buy the property from Cupola Golf Course Property to use for a day care PLANNING COMMISSION 12 April 1988 page 4 facility for the Medical Center. The property is just northeast of HOrizon Heights, across from Quarry Hill Golf Course. There would be 280 feet of frontage. Mrs. Lafleur noted the street would have to be upgraded to city standard and water and sewer will have to be extended. This could be a lot of work Ralph Deslauriers, Jr., noted one end of the street is to city standard, and they will improve the road regardless of this sub- division. Mr. Jacob said it would have to be 30 ft. with curbs, and a sidewalk on one side. Mrs. Lafleur added there would have to be a cul de sac at the end for city vehicles to turn around. Mrs. Lafleur noted the City Manager wants a plan for the whole site, not just a piecemeal approach. Mr. Doremus noted the Cupola people are in serious litigation on their property which does not affect the piece under discussion tonight. They cannot, there- fore, make complete plans at this time. He did not feel they wanted to wait for the litigation to be settled before they could go ahead with the day care facility plan. Mrs. Lafleur noted the property is zoned R-7, and the day care use is a conditional use in R-7. Members asked that when the applicant returns the zones be noted on the plan and buildings laid out as well. As there was o further business to come before the Commission, the meeting adjourned at 9:45 pm. Clerk M E M O R A N D U M TO: South Burlington Planning Commission FROM: William J. Szymanski, City Manager/Engineer RE: April 12, 1988 Agenda Items DATE: April 8, 1988 2) Twin Oaks, Farrell Street The City has had a problem with these types of facilities, mainly the Olympiad and Twin Oaks with insufficient parking requiring the patrons to park out on the street. Mr. Bergh, based on his experience with Twin Oaks should know if sufficient parking is available. 3) Village at Dorset Park 1. I would prefer a stone lined ditch instead of the ponds which will only be swamps with mosquitoes and bug problems. 2. I question the adequacy of off-street parking for the multi- family units. There should also be a place for boat trailers, etc. Extra width driveway to provide parking in front of the units would create problems for snow removal and take a lot of frontage space which should be landscaped. 4) Rozzi Subdivision 1) Creating spaghetti lots should be avoided. 2) There should be a single entrance. The 20 foot easement enlarges the road opening considerably. 3) If this subdivision is approved, the utilities, water and sewer should be separated. 5) Cupola Golf Course Subdivision 1) When Horizon Heights was approved, it was stipulated that further development of the parcel will require the street to be upgraded and become a public street. This upgrading shall be to City standards. It shall also include a sidewalk. 2) It would be to everyone's benefit if the entire 24.6 acres were planned, including streets and utilities. 1 CITY OF SOUTH BURLINGTON Subdivision Application - SKETCH PLAN 1) Name, address, and phone number of: a.

The proposed lot is zoned Residential Seven. Access: Access will be obtained from the Quarry Hill Road from Spear Street. This will be extended to serve this new lot and will be upgraded to City standards to meet earlier subdivision approval requirements. At site plan approval, the road should show thirty feet of pavement with curbs and catch basins and a sidewalk on one side. Utilities: The water anal sewer line will have to be extended to serve any development in !this area. Fire hydrants will also have to be installed. Setbacks: The new lot abuts I-89 and its ramps. The setback from I-89 is 150 feet and 50 feet from the ramps. No development can occur within these setback/Conservation-Open space areas. The CO area may be counted as green space. Use: Although it is not relevant to the subdivision the applicant proposes to build a day care center for the Medical Center Hospital which will be seen at a future site plan review after the subdivision final plat is approved. A day-care center needs a conditional use 'pproval from the Zoning Board as well. Other: See Bill Szymanski's comments. 4
