Re: Findings of Fact, application of Mary Provencher for
subdivision of approximately 6,135 square feet of land containing
two (2) single family dwellings into two (2) lots of approximately
1,845 square feet and 4,290 square feet, 41 and 43 Central Avenue.
On the 14th of December, 1993 the South Burlington Planning
Commission approved the request of Mary Provencher for final plat
approval under Section 202 of the South Burlington Subdivision
Regulations based on the following findings:
1. This project consists of the subdivision of a lot with
approximately 6,135 square feet into a 1,845 square foot lot and a
4,290 square foot lot. The existing lot is presently developed
with two (2) single-family dwellings. The purpose of the
subdivision is to create a lot for each dwelling for future sale.
Neither lot will meet the minimum area and dimension requirements
for the Queen City Park District. Variances for these lots were
granted by the Zoning Board of Adjustment on May 4, 1993. The
Zoning Board attached the following stipulation: "That if
satisfactory parking can't be reconciled to the satisfaction of the
Planning Commission, that this variance if granted be null and
void". This sketch plan was reviewed by the Planning Commission on
6/22/93.
2. This property is located at 41-43 Central Avenue and is in the
Queen City Park District. This property is bounded on north, south
and west by single-family homes and on the east by Central Avenue.
3. Access: The property has two (2) existing curb cuts off from
Central Avenue, one for each of the homes. There are no changes
proposed to these access points.
4. Coverage/setbacks: The southerly lot at 43 Central Avenue will
exceed building coverage by approximately 19% (maximum allowed is
20%). Overall coverage will also be exceeded by an undetermined
amount (maximum allowed is 40%). The Zoning Board granted
variances to exceed these coverage limitations.
5. The new property lines to be created will run in an east -west
direction and result in a zero lot line situation for the southerly
side of the home at 41 Central Avenue. An easement is proposed
which would allow access to the house on the southerly side for
maintenance, etc. The Zoning Board granted a variance for the zero
lot line configuration. The applicant should submit the legal
document for the access easement for review and approval by the
City Attorney prior to recording.
6. Other: The plan needs to be revised to show the "well" lot as
part of the lot at 41 Central Avenue since it is nonconforming and
is automatically merged with this lot.
