Besides minor changes made to the land- scaping plan, I found that four (4) deciduous trees which were supposed to be planted between the sign and the new addition have not been planted. The City requests that. these trees be planted as approved before the winter season begins. Please contact me once these trees have been planted.

Bonanza Restaurant, South Burlington, Vermont" prepared by Gordon G. Woods AssociHtes and dated October 1988 last revised 12/28/88 with the following stipulations: 1. In granting this approval., the Planning Commission realizes that: the projected number of peak hour trips generated by the proposed project exceeds the 14 peak hour trip maximum allowed for the subject site (Article XVII, Traffic Overlay District, South Burlington Zoning Regulations). However, based upon expressed representation of the applicant, the total number of seats associated with the proposed project will be reduced from the current number of 180 to 170. The Planning Commission considers this reduction in seats to have a positive impact on reducing the number of trips currently generated. Therefore, since the proposed project will create an improvment over existing conditions in terms of traffic generation, the Commission waives the requirements of the Traffic Overlay District, Article XVII. Furthermore, since this approval is based on an improvement over existing conditions, no more than 170 seats at any one time may be in operation on this site. 2. A $600, 3-year landscaping bond shall be posted prior to permit. The plan shall be revised prior to permit to correctly show existing landscaping and new landscaping to be approved by the City Planner. 3. The applicant shall repair the stockade fence along the south property line. This fence shall beshown on the plan. 4.

PLANNING COMMISSION 17 JANUARY__7A-& The South Burlington Planning Commission held a regular meeting on Tuesday, 17 January 1988, at 7:30 pm, in the Conference Room, City Hall, 575 Dorset Street. Members Present Peter Jacob, Chairman; William Burgess, Mary -Barbara Maher, Ann Pugh, John Belter Also Present Joe Weith, City Planner; Sid Poger, The Other Paper; Richard Farnham, Chip Burr, G. Handy, Salamin Handy, Alex Blair, Sandra Dooley, Wilbur Bull, Fred Taylor, N. Oakes, William Oakes, Gordon Woods 1. Minutes of 20 December 1988 and 3 January 1989 Ms. Peacock noted she had been present on 12/20. Mr. Weith noted that one stipulation of the approval motion for,Mery Brown had been omitted. This reads as follows: 4. A $2439 intersection improvement fee shall be paid prior to permit based on the 95 trip ends generated by this development. Mr. Burgess moved to approve the Minutes of 20 December 1988 as amended. Mr. Belter seconded. Motion passed unanimously. Mr. Burgess moved to approve the Minutes of 3 January 1989 as written. Ms. Peacock seconded. Motion passed unanimously. 2. Site Plan application o Bonanza Sirloin P�oan for construc- tion of a 636 square foot sold existing 5,000 sq_ ft. building, 792 Shelburne Rd. Mr. Handy advised they will change the entrance from the front to the side and will close in the front area for the greenhouse. Seating will be reduced by 18 seats. There will be major interior renovations include provision of handi- capped access to bathrooms. Mrs. Maher asked where seating will be reduced if there is to be seating in the greenhouse area. Mr. Handy said there will be more spaces between seats and tables. Mr. Weith noted the landscaping plan is deficient and suggested a plan be submitted that correctly shows existing landscaping. Mr. Jacob suggested replacing the birches with a hardier tree. He also raised the question of the fence along the back which is falling down. It should be stipulated that this be replaced and maintained. Ms. Peacock noted front yard coverage is 37.5%. Mr. Weith said this will stay about the same, and they originally got a waiver for the ex- cess coverage. He noted they also do not meet the traffic PLANNING COMMISSION 17 JANUARY 1989 PAGE 2 overlay but they will have fewer seats, so it will be an improvement. Ms. Peacock moved the Planning Commission approve the site plan application of Bonanza Sirloin Pit for construction of a 636 sq. ft. solarium addition as depicted on a plan entitled New Solarium and Remodeling for Bonanza Restaurant, South Burlington, Vermont" prepared by Gordon G. Woods Associates & dated October 1988 last revised 12/28/88 with the following stipulations- 1. In granting this approval, the Planning Commission real- izes that the projected number of peak hour trips generated by the proposed project exceeds the 14 peak hour trip maximum allowed for the subject site (Article XVII, Traffic Overlay District, South Burlington Zoning Regulations). However, based upon expressed representation of the applicant, the total number of seats associated with tfie proposed project will be reduced from the current number of 188 to 170. The Planning Commission considers this reduction in seats to have a positive impact on reducing the number of trips currently generated. Therefore, since the proposed project will create an improvement over existing conditions in terms of traffic generation, the Commission waives the requirements of the Traffic Overlay District, Article XVII. Furthermore, since this approval is based on an improvement over existing con- ditions, no more than 170 seats at any one time may be in operation on this site. 2. Landscaping equivalent to that approved in 1976 shall be planted now and,a 3 year landscape bond shall be op sted in an amount determined by the City Planner jEior to permit. 3. The applicant shall repair and maintain the stockade fence along the south property line. This fence shall be shown on the plan. 4. The zoning permit shall be obtained within 6 months or this approval is null and void. Mr. Burgess seconded. Motion passed unanimously. 3. Sketch plan application of Richard Farnham for construc- tion of a 5-unit condominium building on a 1.23 acre lot, East Terrace Mr. Farnham located the lot 2/3 of the way down East Terrace on the left. It is served by a 50 foot strip that is part of the parcel. The property will be increased to 1.3 acres by addition of 10 feet on the west property line.

Please meet the stipulations contained in the approval motion before applying for a building permit. Please call if you have any questions. JW/mcp 1 Encl Sincerely, , Joe Weith, City Planner `1 E `l 0 R ,a N D U M To: South Burlington 111anning Commission From: Joe Weith, City Planner Re: January 17, 1989 agenda items Date: January 13, 1989 2) BONANZA SIRLOIN PIT ADDITION, SHELBURNE ROAD Bonanza Sirloin Pit proposes to construct a 646 square foot solarium addition to the existing 5000 square foot restaurant located on Shelburne Road. Existing seating is 188. The applicant informed me that along with the solarium addition, interior renovations will be done which will result in a total seating of 170, 18 less than currently exists. The property is zoned C1. The property is bounded on the north by a restaurant (Pizza Hut), on the east by commercial uses, on the south by a service station and single-family residences, and on the west by Shelburne Road. The existing building received site plan approval on 10/5/76. Setbacks/Coverage: The plan meets setback requirements with one exception; the existing building does not meet the required 65 foot setback from residential properties. Therefore, the building is a non -conforming structure. Zoning Administrator, Dick Ward, has informed me that the proposed addition would be permitted. The plan meets building and total lot coverage. The plan shows a front yard coverage of 37.8% (maximum 30% allowed). The plan approved in 1976 did not meet front yard coverage. Access/Circulation: Access and circulation would remain as is. Access would remain from the 60 + foot curb cut on Shelburne Road which is shared with Pizza- Hut. 36 feet of this curb cut is located on Bonanza property. Circulation is provided along the north and east sides of the building. Access is also provided to the adjoining Pizza Hut property by a connection located on the rear of the lot. Parking: Parking would remain as is with 54 spaces. The zoning regulations require 64 + spaces for the existing use (188 seats). The proposed new use (170 seats) requires 57 + spaces. The exi.stin.g 54 spaces should be sufficient and theoretically is an improvement, since the number of seats will bo reduced. f Memorandum - Planning .January 17, 1989 agenda items January 13, 1989 Page 2 Traffic: The parcel is located in Traffic Overlay zone 1 which allows a maximum peak hour generation of 14 trips. Based on I.T.E. trip generation rates, the existing use (188 seats) generates 105 peak hour trips. The proposed use (170 seats) will generate 95 trips during the peak hour. If this addition is approved, the motion should includes that the approval is contingent upon the applicant's expressed representation that the number of seats will be reduced to 170 and no more than 170 seats will be allowed due to traffic congestion in the area. Landscaping: The plan requires $600 in new landscaping based on a building construction cost estimate of $20,000. The plan shows 5 new armstrong junipers and a good number of existing plantings. The existing plantings mirror the landscape plan which was approved in 1976. However, the existing plantings shown on the plan do not correctly represent what is actually on the site. There is significant shortfall in what was planted and what was required to be planted as a condition or approval in 1976. The applicant has informed me that several plants have died. The site appears to be short 10 birch trees and 11 junipers from which was supposed to have been planted. The applicant should be required to fulfill what they were required. to meet in the original approval. Once the original landscape plan is met, I feel the site is sufficiently landscaped. Other: In the 1976 approval, the applicant was required to erect a stockade fence along the property line abutting the residences. This fence is literally falling down and should be replaced. 3) 5-UNIT CONDOMINIUM BUILDING, EAST TERRACE Richard Farnham proposes to construct a 5-unit residential condominium building on a 1.23 acre parcel. located on East Terrace. The bulk of the parcel is located behind (east) several single-family residences and is connected to East. Terrace.by a 50 foot strip of land or right-of-way. The parcel is zoned Residential 4. Multi-f•am.ily dwellings ar•e a permitted use. The parcel is bounded on the west and south by singie-('amily residences, on the east by the Quarry Hill country Club, and on the north by vacant land which is zoned Cl. 2 t�oax> CA01, s � c.�4LGs �fka.: i rA !

This type of plan is not a static plan and it should be recognized that as changes occur in the assumptions, premises, or program directions then the plan must also change to reflect these. It is perhaps easier to understand in terms of what a master plan is not designed to do. It is not a document to be used to specifically site, size, or determine who and what will occupy new or expanded facilities; these functions will be carried out as part of the detailed planning 3 and program definition as a project comes closer to reality. It is not a plan to address the very specific utilization of a facility, eg. a facility for the language arts; it will address very generic functions, ie. residential, academic/administrative, research, and support activities, rather than identifying specific functions or departments. The plan will not address the operational details of a proposed facility or function, eg. how or whether electricity generated by a cogeneration facility will be sold to a utility. In summary, a master plan is designed to provide a skeletal framework for future growth and change which will be filled in when the _ appropriate time arrives. This Campus Master Plan, as with all long range plans, must be flexible and reviewed on a regular basis to examine underlying assumptions and any other changes which would affect the plan. It is recommended that a formal review take place on a biennial basis for this specific Master Plan. 3 SCOPE The Campus Master Plan is designed to address the main campus area, including the core _ campus, south campus, and the centennial woods area. The agricultural properties to the 9, south of the main campus in the City of South Burlington are not a part of this version of the Plan and are assumed to remain as agricultural use for the long range. The next review of the Plan will address these specific areas which will allow the new leadership in the College of Agriculture and Life Sciences time to formulate specific plans and examine alternatives. Fort Ethan Allen is also not included in the Master Plan. It should be noted however that the Board of Trustees have endorsed a goal of disposing of property not fully utilized at the Fort, the industrial section, and potentially the old and new married student housing if equivalent housing is created closer to campus. Since no decisions have been reached regarding the a occupied housing no assumptions have been made regarding replacement housing nearer the main campus. The University has 24 buildings listed on the National Register of Historic sites and 5 addi- tional facilities located in state and locally designated historic districts. Many of these facilities are located on the "green" or on Redstone Campus. 1/16/89 JW MOTION OF APPROVAL I move the South Burlington Planning Commission approve the site plan application of Bonanza Sirloin Pit for construction of a 636 square foot solarium addition as depicted on a plan titled New Solarium and Remodeling for Bonanza Restaurant, South Burlington, Vermont" prepared by Gordon G. Woods Associates and dated October 1988 last revised 12/28/88 with the following stipulations: 1.

However, based upon expressed representation of the applicant, the total number of seats associated with the proposed project will be reduced from the current number of 18,4 to 170. The Planning Commission considers this reduction in seats to have a positive impact on reducing the number of trips currently generated. Therefore, since the proposed project will create an improvment over existing conditions in terms of traffic generation, the Commission waives the requirements of the Traffic Overlay District, Article XVII.

Mr. Ward said this area is zoned I-C District. Section 13.20 Conditional uses sub section 13.205 automobile repair and service - sub section 13.202 automobile sales. Proposed building 100' x 120' 12,000 square feet - lot size 4.4 acres - 240 foot frontage. Use - autobody repair, limited car sales. Mr. Dinklage asked if this had already been to site plan, review and Mr. Ward said no. Mr. Lamoureux said the proposed use is similar to the permitted use. He explained the location of the parcel of land which is next to a brook and not suited for most of the permitted uses. 6% is building, 13% parking and 81% is open and most of it is unusable. Because of the limited usage there would be a low volume of used tat sales there. A variance will not alter the character of the neighborhood - the project will not' be detrimental to public welfare - will be a low traffic generator. Permitted volume of 45 vehicles peak traffic - proposed generated traffic 18 vehicles per hour - low for the site. We have located the entrance at the former existing curb cut. It will be an autobody repair with limited sales of used cars surrounded by industrial uses. Mr. Caron said this will be our main shop - we will have about 10 more cars. We now have 12 cars. Repair will remain pretty much the same. Williston zoning controls the amount of cars I can have at my Williston location. Mr. Dinklage moved that if approved it be with the stipulation that the entrance off Williston Road be upgraded in a manner acceptable to the City Planner and the Planning Commission to safely handle traffic turning into the property from either direction and specifically providing deceleration/right turn lane for vehicles east bound on Williston Road. This was seconded by Mr. King and all voted aye. The appeal was granted unanimously. No. 5 Appeal of Timberlane Medical Center Inc. Appeal of Timberlane Medical Center Inc., Carol Narkewitz seeking approval from Section 10.20. Conditional uses, subsection 10.204 Multiple offices of the South Burlington Regulations. Request is for permission to construct a 23,000 square foot addition to an existing 23,000 square foot building on a lot containing 6 acres located at 50 Timber Lane. Mr. Ward said this area is zoned R-7 District. Section 10.20 Conditional uses sub section 10.204 medical offices. Section 19.05 Conditional uses, sub section 19.056 alterations, extension or other changes to an existing conditional use. Existing building 23,000 square feet - proposed addition 23,000 square feet.
