PLANNED UNIT DEVELOPMENT - 1700 SPEAR STREET
FINAL PLAT APPLICATION #SD-06-45
The Snyder Companies, hereafter referred to as the applicant, is seeking final plat
approval to amend a planned unit development consisting of 31 single family dwellings
and one (1) existing single family dwelling on 26.8 acres. The amendment consists of
modifying the building footprint of lots #25, 30, and 31, 1700 Spear Street. The
Development Review Board held a public hearing on July 18, 2006. Chris Snyder
represented the applicant.
Based on testimony provided at the above mentioned public hearing and plans and
supporting materials contained in the document file for this application, the Development
Review Board finds, concludes, and decides the following:
FINDINGS OF FACT
1. The applicant is seeking final plat approval to amend a planned unit development
consisting of 31 single family dwellings and one (1) existing single family dwelling
on 26.8 acres. The amendment consists of modifying the building footprint of lots
#25, 30, and 31, 1700 Spear Street.
2. The owner of record of the subject property is The Snyder South Pointe Limited
Partnership.
3. The subject property is located in the Southeast Quadrant — Neighborhood
Residential (SEQ-NR) Zoning District.
4. The plans submitted consist of a four (4) page set of plans, page one (1) entitled,
"South Pointe The Snyder Group, Inc. 1700 Spear Street South Burlington,
Vermont Site Plan", prepared by Lamoureux & Dickenson Consulting Engineers,
Inc., dated 10/15/03, last revised on 5/25/06.
Building Envelopes
The applicant is propsing to swap the building envelopes for units #30 and #31. This would
result in unit #30 being 40' x60' and unit #31 being 50' x 60'. This will not change the
building or overall coverages for the PUD. No new units are proposed and so density is
unaffected. Both lots are outside of the wetlands and wetland buffers on the property.

Setbacks
The applicant is proposing to modify the building envelope for unit #25 to allow for a front
setback of 14 feet in place of the existing 20 feet. Most of the front of the building still meets
the 20 foot setback, but because of the slight curve in the road, the front corner of the
building will be set only 14 feet back. Therefore the applicant is requesting a waiver of 6
feet to encroach into the front setback. There is no issue with this request as it is shown on
the plans received in Planning and Zoning and stamped June 7, 2006.
