Home My WebLink AboutSP-84-0000 - Supplemental - 0700 Spear StreetV S• PLANNING COMMISSION JULY 24, 1984 4. That this approval expires in 6 months. Mrs. Maher seconded the motion and all voted for it. Site plan application of Dr. George Boccia for conversion of an existing single family residence into a medical clinic located at 700 Spear Street Ms. Bechtel noted that the Zoning Board had approved the use. Dr. Boccia noted that Spear Street had nowhere near the traffic that Williston Road did, and he said this lot had a better entrance/exit setup than the similar use reviewed earlier tonight did. There is a U-shaped driveway which will provide access to the new parking lot. The lot will be screened with cedar trees. Dr. Boccia said he was an internist, with a specialist in pulmonary medicine. He expected to employ a nurse and a secretary. Ms. Bechtel noted that this was different than the previously heard plan in that the Commission would not be concerned about traffic backing out into a heavily traveled road. Mr. Poger said he would like clarification on the stipulation of only one doctor in this case also. Mr. Jacob felt this case was different from the previous one, feeling that location made a lot of difference. Mr. Poger did not want Spear Street to change from residential to commercial. He felt this was the first step in that process. Mrs. Maher also did not like the use variance. She did not like to see the encroachment. Mr. Dooley moved that the South Burlington Planning Commission approve the site plan application of George Boccia, for the conversion of a residence to a medical clinic located at 700 Spear Street, as depicted on a plan prepared by Eric M. Rodgers, Design Associates entitled "Proposed Office for Dr. George Boccia, 700 Spear Street, South Burlington, Vermont", dated June 20, 1984, with the following stipulations: 1. That the Planning Commission give credit for existing landscaping, valued at above the $60 required. 2. That the Planning Commission waive two parking spaces, and limit parking to five spaces. 3. That this approval expires in 6 months. Mr. Jacob seconded the motion and it carried with Mr. Poger voting no. Site plan application of Benchmark Restoration for conversion of an existing single family residence into a 2042 sq. ft. office buildin- located at 69 Swift Street Mr. Fd Grimley said there would be two businesses in the building - Benchmark and Lawson Office Products. The drive will be widened to meet the requirements. Nine parking spaces are laid out and there are 3 spaces in the garage. They will try to keep headlight glare out of people's windows during the winter by proper orientation. There will be no interior changes to the building. Mr. Grimley said Benchmark had almost no walk-in or drive-in business and that Lawson did door to door sales of office products. Mr. Grimley was not sure what would be done with the swimming pool.
