Re: APPEAL OF TEKRAM PARTNERS, CENTURY PARTNERS & JUDGE COMPANIES
This matter came before the South Burlington Development Review Board pursuant to the
provisions of 24 VSA§ 4464(a) on appeal of Tekram Partners, Century Partners and Judge
Companies, hereinafter "Appellants," appealing the issuance of a Notice of Violation dated
9/26/00 by the Administrative Officer for property at 100 & 102 Dorset Street and 4 Market
Street. The Appellants were present at the public hearing held on 12/5/00 relative to this
appeal. Based on evidence submitted at the hearing and as part of this appeal, the South
Burlington Development Review Board hereby renders the following decision:
1. The owners of record of this property are Tekram Partners, Century Partners and Judge
Companies.
2. On 5/12/98 the Planning Commission granted an "as -built" approval for the 100 Dorset
Street complex which includes 102 Dorset Street and 4 Market Street. On 12/24/99 the
Development Review Board approved a revised plan for mezzanine space at 4 Market
Street (Healthy Living). The 1999 approval required that certain modifications be made
to the site which have yet to be implemented.
3. A comprehensive review of the property revealed that site modifications were made
since the 1998 plan was approved without approval. This review also revealed that
conditions of the 1999 approval have yet to be met. The Administrative Officer listed
conditions not implemented or site modifications mac, without approval in the three (3)
separate Notices of Violation dated 9/26/00. Mr. Judge submitted a letter dated 10/3/00
in response to these Notices of Violation.
4. On 10/25/00 staff and the City Attorney met Peter Judge and his attorney on the site
and reviewed each of the items listed in the Notices of Violation. The purpose of these
Notices of Violation is to bring the property into compliance with past approvals and the
zoning regulations.
5. On October 5, 2000, the three (3) Appellants filed one (1) Notice of Appeal appealing
the decision of the Administrative Officer to issue the three (3) Notices of Violation.
