Mr. Kranz, This letter is to confirm my office's interpretation of the review procedures for the project at 1690 Shelburne Road: 1) On January 7, 1980 the City Council granted conditional use approval with stipulations under interiin zoning for a shopping cxxq)lex at the above address. 2) Interim zoning was replaced by new permanent zoning, containing new commercial provisions, effective y 19, 1980. 3) According to the intent of Section 14.30 of the Zoning Reg- ulations, the City council approval renained valid for 6 a ontiis or as long as there was "a reasonable a count of objective evidence of intent to pursue the furtherance of the project for which the perinit was issuea." 4) The applicant submitted on July 3, 1980 a letter of intent to apply to the Planning Cc-im ission for further approval for the project, thereby satisfying the initial requirement of intent to pursue tiie pru- ject. 5) According to the definition of "subdivision" (subsection 5) in the Subdivision regulations, this project was considered by any office to be a c:oacimercial complex subject to the three stages of a major subdivision application --sketch plan, preliminary plat and final 1.lat. 6) Sketch plan review was held by the Planning Conbui.ssion on July 22, 19bO. 7) In order to satisfy continued "intent to pursue thu further- ance of the project" the applicant must submit a complete preliminary plat application within 6 months after the (date of sketch plan review and a complete final plat application within 18 months after the date of preliminary approval. 8) The stipulations of the City Council remain in effect; in add- ition, the project is subject to all criteria of the Subdivision Regulations. Lloyd Kranz James & Jacob, Inc. November 5, 1980 Page 2 I hope that these comments will clarify any questions regarding the review procedure that is being applied to this project. DS/mcg cc: Richard Ward William Szymanski Y Sincerely, David H. Spitz, City Planner: Page 5 PLANNING ODIMISSION MINUI`ES JULY 22, 1980 50 employees. Trucks will park in the garage. Loading docks are adequate to handle full truck length. Mr. Walsh suggested caution signs on Allen Road. Mr. Ewing asked if vegetation could be cut back at the curve by the Counter property. Mr. Neun from the Lutheran Church asked what the setback would be; Lamphere said a minimum of 35 feet and that trees within that distance were intended to be saved. Site plan action was postponed until information on drainage, utilities, and other points is provided. Application by Lloyd Kranz, agent, for sketch plan approval of a shopping complex at 1690 Shelburne Road. Lloyd Kranz, real estate agent with James and Jacob, introduced the project. Steve Page of Dubois & King, engineers for the project, located the site. he said the project had received approval under interim zoning from the City Council in January, and he listed the Council's stipulations. Mr. Page said they have not yet rearranged the parking, as required by the Council. Mr. Levesque strongly recommended against placing all the parking in front. Mr. Woolery asked about the status of the rear access to Green lbuntain Drive and was told it was part of the plan. He also asked about access to another parcel of land owned by Green Mountain Power to the east of this one. Mr. Power and Mir. Page both suggested that interconnecting access be provided but that there should be no-thru traffic service the rear GMP parcel through this lot. Mr. Woolery also suggested that relocation of the restaurant be considered as it may cause traffic problems for the rest of the lot. Several commission members felt that the site needed more imagination and a more attractive layout. There was much concern about this combination of uses arranged in this fashion. In response to a suggestion to turn the main building perpendicular to the road, Mr. Page said that certain limitations were placed by the general slope of the land towards Shelburne Road. Mr. Ewing asked whether traffic backing up from the Green r;ountain Drive traffic light might block this project's entrance. The possibility of relocating the entrance further to the South will be reexamined. Mr. Rechelt, the prospective purchaser discussed problems in a retail operation if steps became necessary or if parking was located behind the building. He also saia visibility for the project was not the greatest since it was partly blocked by Willie Racine's Jeep. Continued Reorganization Mr. Jacob moved to nominate George Mona for vice-chairman. Mr. Levesque seconded and all voted in favor. Other Business The Ccmmission requested an inspection of Grandview's landscaping. They felt it was PLANNING COMMISSION MINUTES PAGE 6 JULY 22, 1980 very barren. They also requested that Plywood Ranch's screening requirements be checked. The Commission suggested a new landscaping provision in the appropriate ordinance whereby landscaping would be inspected two years after installation before release of the landscaping bond. Mr. Levesque asked that a letter of commendation be sent to NicDonalds for their recent landscaping improvements on Williston Road. Suggestions were made for a park site in the Southeast Quadrant, perhaps in the vicinity of the quarry. Bruce O'Neill, Recreational Director, will be advised of the Commission's comments. The meeting was adjourned at 10:40 P.M. Clerk 3) Sugar Tree Major issues from preliminary plat review have been resolved. The fire chief has approved an arrangement whereby the water system will not be looped but an additional fire hydrant will be added on Kennedy Drive to insure adequate safety. Also, street lights of the Town and Country variety have been located on the map. And the trail location has been spotted and is off the applicant's property. A snow fence has been marked on the landscaping plan to insure tree protection. A total development cost estimate must still be submitted to allow determination of the landscaping bond. Concerning potential access to the Ryan property - although such access, does not appear likely to be used, the option should be kept open. A 50' by 100' easement (up from 30' by 60') would allow construction of a City street. Wording of the easement is still being worked out. Other changes to the plat - the sidewalk should be extended to the second driveway; also, a street name should be indicated. 4) Farrell Company - (Pepsi) a) Traffic. Improvements at intersection with Allen Read include wide turning radii at the curb and a 250' passing lane on Allen Road. No improvements have been proposed for Shelburne Road intersection. State has been consulted and has responded that its normal review would be at Act 250. If the City wishes to have an additional review it must make its own request to applicant to undertake a traffic study and to provide any necessary road improvements. b) Sidewalk. The applicant has not proposed a sidewalk. c) Water system and fire protection. Previous subdivision proposal included a looped water system. At present, this proposal does not. Fire Chief feels looped system plus an additional hydrant may be necessary. Issue remains to be resolved. d) Pedestrian easement. Easement may follow CWD line, east property line or any other suitable location. Ends of easement should align with Allenbrook home easement and with an appropriate connection, if any, to the Shelburne development. e) Site plan. Details, including landscaping, drainage and utilities, are incomplete. Other questions include length of loading dock and whether setback to Counter property line is adequate (industrial rear yard requirement is 50 feet). I do not feel that site plan submission has progressed far enough to receive final approval. 5) Kranz Application for a supermarket, drug store other commercial spaoe� restaurant, and Fotomat kiosk was approved by Ctiy Council with stipulations in January under interim zoning. Approval is valid for 6 months so applicant need not be considered under new Cl-C2 zoning. Sketch plan submission shows same layout as was presented to City Council. Stipulations regarding parking,etc. have not yet been incorporated. Applicant states other revisions may also be suggested but I have not seen them and there- fore can provide no input. Other points:possible connections to remainder of property and to adjacent properties should be reviewed. Front yard green space appears to,be below required amount.
