foot front yard setback requirement, 2 Sherry Road:
Mrs. Barton noted that when they purchased the property, the deck was already there.
Mr. Cameron expressed concern that if the Board tells the Bartons they can't have
railings and someone subsequently gets hurt, the city might get sued.

without a permit that projects 10 feet into the 30 foot front yard setback
requirement in the Residential Four District, 2 Sherry Road, as depicted on a plan
entitled "House," with a stamped received date of July 27, 2000, with the following

1. All previous approvals and stipulations whic_' are not superseded by this
approval shall remain in effect.
2. The applicant shall obtain a zoning permit within six months pursuant to
Section 27.302 of the Zoning Regulations or this approval is null and void.

Mr. Cameron seconded. Motion passed unanimously.
5. Public Hearing: Final Plat application #SD-00-45 of William & Charlotte
Ross for Stonhedge "M" Association to amend a planned residential
development consisting of 16 units in four buildings, Cluster "M." The
amendment consists of amending the landscaping plan to approve the "as -
built" landscaping, Stonehedge Drive:
Ms. Quimby stepped down during this hearing due to a conflict of interest.
Mr. Lisman, representing "M" Association, said he didn't know why what was approved
was not built. The only reason this was noticed was because of the Bianchi decision. He
said they are asking for approval of what was built. Residents can't sell. their homes until
this is approved.
Mr. Lisman noted that staff is asking for more trees. He said that what is there is very
mature. He acknowledged that more trees could make it look better, but he didn't know
if that was necessary.
Mr. Belair said he hoped staff could work with the applicant if the Board wants more
trees.
Ms. Ravin, a member of the "M" Board,. said there are residents who want to market their
units immediately. She said she would like to see the plan approved "as built" and then
let the residents decide where to put in more landscaping. She noted that residents would
have to pay for this landscaping as they couldn't go after the developer now.
Mr. Belair noted there was never a CO issued. He recommended staff work with the
applicant on plantings that will be beneficial for them. Mr. Dinklage suggested $1000 in
new landscaping and let residents work out what and where with staff. Members agreed.

(iii) adequate on -site parking; and
(iv) safety of adjoining and/or nearby property
The applicant has submitted a report addressing these criteria (please see enclosed). It is staff s
recommendation that the side yard encroachment will not have an adverse affect.
The existing structure projects ten feet into the front yard setback. The applicant has proposed
encroaching an additional foot into the front yard setback for an overall encroachment of 11 feet. It
is staff s position that the proposed encroachment is acceptable. While staff would normally
recommend against further encroachment into the front yard setback in which the proposed
encroachment is not similar to any other structure in the neighborhood, the proposed project is for
an enclosed accessible lift which will expand the least amount possible into the front yard setback.
An accessible ramp would be exempt from front yard setbacks, and staff believes that a lift that is
incorporated into the fabric of the existing building would pose less of an effect on the
neighborhood than a ramp.
Criteria of Section 25.118 (e): This section provides for encroachment of a structure to within less
than ten (10) feet from the property line provided survey data from a licensed surveyor showing the
location of affected property lines, existing and/or proposed structures, and any other information
deemed necessary by the Administrative Officer is provided. A survey plat of the property has been
provided.
5) CONTINUED - BARRETT — SITE PLAN — TRAILER & ACCESS DRIVE, 6 LIME
ROCK ROAD
This project was continued from the September 5, 2000 Development Review Board meeting at
the request of the applicant (memo enclosed). The applicant is working with a surveyor to
delineate the floodplain and may present new information on the location of the floodplain at the
meeting.
6) HENRY & SHERRY BARTON — MISCELLANOUS APPLICATION — DECK
ADDITION, 2 SHERRY ROAD
The applicants are seeking approval under Section 25.118 of the South Burlington Zoning
Regulations to legitimize a 10 foot by 12 foot deck addition that was constructed last year without a
permit that projects 10 feet into the 30 foot front yard setback requirement, 2 Sherry Road. Since
this encroachment is more than average, the project must be reviewed under Section 25.118(c) of
the Zoning Regulations. Section 25.118 is a new addition to the Zoning Regulations that provides
exceptions to yard setback and coverage requirements for lots in existence prior to February 28,
1974 that are primarily a single family or two-family residence.
This property at 2 Sherry Road is a corner lot located in the Residential Four District. It is bounded
on the north by Brookwood Drive, on the west by Sherry Road, on the south by a single family
residence, and on the east by a doctor's office.

Development Review Board
September 19, 2000
2 Sherry Road, Brookwood Drive Frontage
Criteria of Section_25.118 (c): This section provides for encroachment of a structure to within
three feet of the side yard property line provided that the encroachment will not have an undue
adverse affect on:
(i) views of adjoining and/or nearby properties
(ii) access to sunlight of adjoining and/or nearby properties
(iii) adequate on -site parking; and
(iv) safety of adjoining and/or nearby property
The addition is along the Brookwood Drive frontage, which is considered the second front yard of
the property. One of the requirements of this criteria is that a structure may encroach into a required
front yard setback up to the average front yard setback of principal structures on adjacent lots on the
same street frontage. The deck proposed will encroach more than the immediately adjacent lot. The
applicant must therefore be prepared to address the deck's effect on views of adjoining and/or
nearby properties, access to sunlight of adjoining and/or nearby properties, adequate on -site parking,
and safety of adjoining and/or nearby properties.
The immediate adjacent lots front on other streets and are therefore hard to compare in terms of
front yards. The properties across the street and two down along Brookwood Drive are perhaps
better examples for comparison of front yard setbacks along the street. There are several adjacent
structures that have similar front decks and similar front yard setbacks. Staff has requested that the
applicant provide information on the setbacks of these properties.
North side of Brookwood Drive
Development Review Board
September 19, 2000
The deck addition appears to be consistent with the existing average front yard setbacks along the
Brookwood Drive although not consistent with the immediate adjacent property. Staff believes that
the deck will not create an adverse effect because it is the character of the neighborhood to have
small front yard decks. Staff, however, recommends that the Board restrict the proposed
encroachment to a deck without railings or other improvements to ensure that the deck is not
changed to an other type of addition, such as a garage, that may create an adverse effect.
7) WH LIAM & CHARLOTTE ROSS — FINAL PLAT — STONEHEDGE
CONDOMINIUMS "M" CLUSTER LANDSCAPING, STONEHEDGE DRIVE
This project proposes to legitimize the present landscaping of the "W Cluster of Stonehedge
Condos. The existing landscaping differs significantly from the landscaping last approved by the
Planning Commission as part of the project's site plan on November 27, 1979 (minutes
enclosed). Since this last approval there have been minor administrative changes to the parking
layout and placement of the buildings.
The property on Stonehedge Drive lies within the Residential Four District. It is bounded on the
east by Spear Street, on the south by a single family residence, on the west by Szymanski Park,
and on the north by the lands of the University of Vermont.
Landscaping: The applicant is proposing to legitimize the mature landscaping existing on the site
as the approved landscaping. The previous site plan approval did not require the applicant to
bond for the landscaping and therefore the value of the actual plantings can not be compared to
the approved plantings. The existing landscaping does provide some of the same intended effect
as the approved landscaping but lacks in some areas.
The existing landscaping does not provide adequate coverage along the edge of unit M16 facing
Stonehedge Drive, between units M13 and M12, along the street fagade of unit M9 and M8, and
between the parking area and the street which serves unit M9. The proposed landscaping plan
should be revised to include new tree plantings in these areas. The new plantings should not be a
dwarf tree and an adequate number should be planted in consultation with staff to provide
screening for the buildings and the parking area.
