A,)plicntion by ',falter and Yargaret Douglas for sketch plan review of a 1 lot
subdivision at 1102 L;peatr :street
Mr. Joe Chastenay showed the Commission the area in question. There
are presently two lots with a 50' right of way. Mr. Douglas wants to
subdivide one lot, keep half and sell off the other half plus the house.
Pere tests were done.
Mr. Chastenay said the subdivision intent was to keep some open space
in front of Mr. Douglas' home. The only new lot which will be created will
be the one in front of the Douglas home and it will remain open for now.
There is an easement shown on the plan, and it was suggested that that
be checked into further to find out what its purpose was or is.
The Commission saw no problems with the application.
Application by South Burlington Realty Corporation for revised preliminary
Plat approval of Corporate Circle, a 41.5 acre Planned Commercial Development,
behind Williston Road, Dorset :street, and Hinesburg Road
Mr. Schner said that 8-9 months ago they had been before the Commission
with a plan which showed a .large circle in the center of the project. The
Commission stipulated that there be a method of pedestrian access in and out
of that circle and that has created hardships in the planning. Alternates
studied included pedestrian overpasses, which the Planner feels are rarely
used, underpasses, which would have to have water pumped out continuously
because of the water table in the area, and pedestrian activated signals,
which the traffic engineers are against if the circle is to work properly.
Ar. Schner also stated that this project had to provide a return on
the investment and he noted that the previous plan might not have satisfied
Act 250 criteria.
The new plan shows a 60' wide right of way starting opposite the present
University Nall entrance and coming out on Hinesburg Road. They will also
set aside a 60' right of way to the northeast corner of the property and deed
this to the city, which eventually can be connected with the Midas Muffler
road. Mr. _'chner noted that one section of the area between the Anchorage
Inn and Earl's Bike :shop narrowed to 50' and he said the city might try
to correct that later.
Mr. "chner said a major change had been made in that the lots in the
southwest corner of the area would be served by a cul-de-sac instead of
another access to Dorset Street.
neater will be brought from Dorset Street and looped to Hinesburg Road
and another line will be brought from Mary Street, which will give the
proper fire flows. There will be a change in sewer lines - they will now
have all flow go out to Hinesburg Road. A major pump station will be needed
for this.
Mr. Schner noted that there had been concerns raised by Iby Street
residents and that the developer still wanted to keep the area as natural
as possible.
Mr. Schner said 10 lots were shown.
Mr. Schner said the drainage swale would be relocated, but its centerline
would remain 35' from the edge of the property line. No building is allowed
within 50' of the centerline of the Swale, and the 35' on the developer's
side plus the 15' requirement on the other side will mean that relocation
will not encumber anyone's lot. Mr. Schner said the low point on the contour
lines would be used as the stream centerline. It will be relocated to put
it approximately 60' from the Unsworth line and then it will go to a culvert.

2) Grandview
Enclosed are 2 letters from Lyn Palin, manager of the Grandview project, re-
garding the proposed change from condominium to rental units and the new ceiling
price. The proposed rental ceiling of $415 does not appear to exceed the previously
approved sales ceiling for condominiums of $43,000 (8/26/80). In fact, the rental
price appears to allow even lower -income residents than under the condominium arrange-
ment.
Procedurally, the Commission does not need to grant revised final plat approval.
The following would be sufficient: "...that the Planning Commission approve a rental
ceiling price of $415 per month for the Grandview project. The sales ceiling price
of$43,000 for condominiums shall remain in effect."

Proposed subdivision is on Spear Street south of I-89 in an RI zone (within
500 feet of Spear Street). Existing 2.6 acre lot is split by a 50 foot right-of-
way serving 2 rear lots. Rear lots are not part of this subdivision. Front parcel
would be split into 2 lots each with sufficient lot size and frontage. One lot has
an existing house; the other is vacant.
The only issue is whether a soils test will be required. Applicant is not
proposing to develop at this time and requests that the soil test be waived. My
general recommendation is that whenever a new unsewered lot is created there should
be sufficient evidence to show that a septic system can work at that site. In this
case, soil appears to be sandy and a soil boring, rather than a full percolation test,
should be sufficient.

Otherwise there are no major changes since
Applicant has submitted a new plan showing the requested street entrance onto
Williston Road. Also, a common entrance is proposed between the existing animal
hospital and the Williston Road/Shunpike Road corner lot.
For the new street intersection, information must still be provided on
adequacy of sight distance. In this case, I would also suggest that accident
data be provided.
Subdivision regulations require an angle of intersection no sharper than 80
degrees.
The 5 foot reserve strip between new street and adjacent property must be
eliminated.
The road should be located so as not to require any fill in the 100 foot CO
zone along Potash Brook.
The proposed common entrance for 2 lots must be located so as to minimize
interference with existing parking and trees.
The State will also have to review all intersections with Williston Road.
Drainage should be reviewed at final plat.

Applicant has reduced building size from 20,000 to 18,000 GFA; has increased
number of parking spaces from 80 to 90; and he has provided additional traffic
information (enclosed).
Note that by Cl traffic standards, a 23,400 square foot building could be
constructed on this site. The applicant on his own, dropped that size to 20,000
square feet prior to last meeting and has now agreed to reduce building size to
18,000 square feet. Projected peak hour total trips is 42 vehicles. This is
low enough that any left -turning movements from either access, entering or exiting
at a.m. or p.m. peak hours would not cause significant backpups. The worst case
I can envision is p.m. left -turns onto Kennedy Drive. By my conservative estimates
20 existing cars per hour would have to compete against through traffic.
