North Country Planning, dated May, 1986, with the following
stipulations:
1. The landscaping requirement of $240 is waived.
2. When the lot to the south is developed and the right of
way is used, the applicant's right to use the access drive to
the parking lot shall terminate unless renewed by vote of the
Planning Commission.
3. The parking lot spaces shall be delineated on the plan.
4. A revised plan reflecting these changes shall be submitted
to the City Planner for approval prior to permit.
5. The building permit shall be obtained within 6 months or
this approval shall be null and void.
Mrs. Maher seconded the motion which passed unanimously.
3. Sketch plan application of Alan Gigure for a subdivision
of a 1.73 acre parcel into 4 lots at 150 Airport Parkway
Mr. Gigure said he would like the access road to be private
despite the fact that there will be 4 units and only 3 are
allowed. Mrs. Lafleur said she would like to see contours
shown on the plan. Setback from the pond must be 50 feet.
There should also be a turnaround at the end of the road in
the event the property to the rear is developed and the road
may have to be upgraded. Mr. Jacob said a little rectangular
corner would suffice for turning. The road would never be a
city street since it is only 50 feet wide. Mrs. Maher said
the site plan must show building envelopes, etc.
4. Site plan application of Harry Curth for construction of a
2924 sq. ft. carwash on lot #3 of Fassetts 3-lot subdivision,
1805 Shelburne Road
Mrs. Lafleur noted that this proposal used a portion of the
Fassetts Bakery lot which will be deeded to Mr. Curth. This
will increase the allowable trip ends to 80. Ms. Peacock ex-
ressed concern that a portion of the driveway will be on
someone else's property. Mrs. Lafleur said the arrangement
will be in the deed. She also confirmed that nothing in the
plan has changed but the lot size. Mr. Dooley asked
how the seasonal variation problem is solved. Mrs. Lafleur
said it is averaged. Mr. Dickinson said that he, Craig
Leiner and Mrs. Lafleur had agreed that seasonal adjustment
was an acceptable way to compute this. Mr. Dooley said he
does not agree with seasonal adjusting though it doesn't

increased the lot size, but she acknowledged it was legal.

struction of a 2,720 sq. ft. building at 1805 Shelburne Rd

Mr. Belter seconded, and the motion passed 5-1 with Mrs.
Maher voting against and Mrs. Hurd abstaining.
5. PUBLIC HEARING: Heathcote Associates for construction of
an addition for a net increase of 18,462 sq. ft. and related
site improvements at the South Burlington Factory Outlet
Mall, 518 Shelburne Rd.
Mr. Dooley asked what changes had been made from the prior
plan. Mr. Ramos, architect, said they have addressed parking
and internal car movements, lot coverage, landscaping. They
have also brought a part of the T.J. Max building inside.
Mrs. Lafleur said that 7,000 sq. ft. have been brought in.
Lot coverage would be reduced from 94.5% at present to 93.5%.
Mr. Ramos said they could convert some parking to open space
and reduce coverage to 89-90%, since new land has been ac-
quired. The bank will remain at its current location and has
been informed that when their lease is up in 1990 they will
no longer have a drive-in facility in that location. The
plan calls for an unbroken cruising lane ending at Grand
Union which they feel will help divert traffic to the rear.
Mr. Dickinson addressed traffic. They now generate 950 trip
ends during the design hour. The current schedule is to open
in the spring of 1987. At that point, the Southern Connector
will be under construction to be completed in 18 months. So
they tried to calculate conditions now and in 2 years. At
the completion of the Connector, problems such as Swift St.
and insufficient merging areas will be solved. At present,
the Home Avenue/Factory Outlet intersection are at Level of
Service D; Swift St. is at Level F. In 1988, without the
project, Home Ave will stay at Level D, Swift St. will stay
at Level F, the entrance intersection will be Level E. They
tried to identify improvements that could be made and
suggested Home Ave signal timing be changed which would get
it back to Level D. Entrance signal timing adjustment could
be just a hair over D/E, and Swift St. timing could result in
Level E. They also looked into prohibiting left turns at
peak hours which would result in Level $. Mrs. Maher asked
on what ground the state would agree to make these changes to
accommodate one developer. Mr. Dickinson said it would
benefit existing conditions. He noted that 2 of the inter-
sections are controlled by the City of Burlington. Mrs.
Maher said she did not feel prohibiting people from getting
home helped a situation. Mr. Dickinson said at present only
70 cars per hour make that left turn and there are 1800
vehicles heading north. It would be a trade-off, 70 people
vs. 1800 people.
Mr. Dooley asked what would happen if Burlington optimizes
