Re: Findings of Fact, application of Hannaford Brothers Company
for construction of a ten (10) building planned commercial
development on a 38.5 acre lot consisting of a 64,000 square foot
supermarket, 107,806 square foot department store, 79,740 square
feet of retail space, a 95 room hotel, a 6,000 square foot
restaurant, and a 2,500 square foot bank with drive -through
service. The amendment consists of: 1) the approval of Fayette
Road and Martin's Drive as private roads subject to detailed
conditions, and 2) the consolidation of the proposed uses (i.e.
department store, retail, restaurant) into the single use category
"Shopping Center", except for the supermarket, hotel and bank which
will remain separate uses, Shelburne Road.
On the 25th of October, 1994, the South Burlington Planning
Commission approved the request of Hannaford Brothers Company for
revised preliminary plat approval under Section 203 of the South
Burlington Subdivision Regulations based on the following findings:
1. This application is to amend the preliminary plat approved on
9/14/93 for construction of a ten (10) building planned commercial
development on a 38.5 acre lot consisting of a 64,000 square foot
supermarket, 107,806 square foot department store, 79,740 square
foot of retail space, a 95 room hotel, a 6,000 square foot
restaurant, and a 2,500 square foot bank with drive -through
service. The amendment consists of: 1) the approval of Fayette
Road and Martin's Drive as private roads subject to detailed
conditions, and 2) the consolidation of the proposed uses into the
single use category "Shopping Center" with a total of 257,546
square feet, except for the hotel and bank which will remain
separate uses.
2. Public Streets vs. Private Streets: The recording of a "Notice
of Conditions of Subdivision Approval" which describes the
management of the private streets in the development should be
recorded in the land records. This documents should be approved by
the City Attorney and recorded in the South Burlington land records
prior to the recording of the final plat plans.
2. Parking: The total number of parking spaces required,
excluding Red Lobster and Burger King, is 1,407 and 1,354 spaces
are being provided including 51 handicapped spaces. This
represents a shortfall of 53 spaces, or 38%. If the proposed
supermarket is treated as a "supermarket" and not a "shopping
center", the total parking requirement is 1,340 which would not
require a parking waiver.
