On the 24th day of October, 1995, the South Burlington Planning
Commission approved the request of Hannaford Brothers Company for
approval under Section 303 of the South Burlington Subdivision
Regulations based on the following findings:
1. Pursuant to section 303 of the subdivision regulations,
Hannaford Brothers is requesting approval to modify the design of
the main entrance on Shelburne Road. Section 303 states the
following:
2. "If at any time after approval before or during the
construction of the required improvements, it is demonstrated that
unforseen conditions make it necessary or preferable to modify the
location or design of structures, curb cuts, roads, parking lots,
lighting or landscaping, the Commission may, upon the advice of the
City Engineer, authorize minor modifications provided that they are
within the spirit and intent of the Commission's approval and that
they do not waive or substantially alter the function of any
improvements previously required by the Planning Commission."
3. The purpose of this provision is to allow the Planning
Commission to authorize minor modifications without having to
require a noticed public hearing.
4. The applicant is proposing to modify the main entrance by
deleting a small island, relocating the crosswalks, and increasing
the radii of the entrance lane. These changes are being required by
the AOT. City Engineer, Bill Szymanski, concurs with the proposed
changes.
