General Background Information
The City Council of South Burlington requests proposals from qualified firms for
architectural services to analyze and determine the current space needs for the City's
police and fire departments, and City Hall; analyze and determine the future space needs
for these City services for the next 5, 15, and 20 years; analyze and evaluate different
options being considered by the City for expansion of these services; and evaluate and
determine the costs for the future expansion of space for these services under different
scenarios. These three functions presently are located at 575 Dorset Street, a strategic
and central location for public accessibility and more importantly, for quick departmental
access by police and fire to the entire City for emergencies. There also may be economic
and functional benefits for these three functions being located on a single campus. For
example, there will likely be cost savings if the three municipal services (police, fire and
City Hall) used the same physical and mechanical plant and shared public meeting places.
In other words, having one boiler, instead of three separate boilers, and one 1830 sq. ft.
meeting room, instead of three would be financially advantageous. There also would be a
positive synergy by having all three of these critical municipal services at one location.
This analysis is being driven by inadequate police space. The current 4000 square foot
facility for police was built in 1982 for 28 employees, and the police department
presently has 50 officers. In 2007, a"City Police Facility Planning Sub-Committee"
described South Burlington's police station as "drastically beyond its intended
occupancy." The Council believes it has a duty to proceed expeditiously, albeit
reasonably and professionally, to remedy this situation.
The City Council has presented two plans for larger and improved police space to South
Burlington voters. Voters rejected the first proposal, prepared by Brian Humes, in May
of 2006. It was a proposal for 28,000 square feet, but the City Council reduced this
proposal to 20,000 square feet and proposed to build it at the police station's present
location. The second proposal was based on a needs assessment by a Police Facility
Planning Sub-Committee between the fall of 2006 and the winter of 2007 and work by
Arnold and Scangus, an architectural firm in Colchester, VT that designed Vermont's
State Police barracks. The latter work occurred between March 2007 and June 2008.
After study of an appropriate site by a committee appointed by the City Council, the latter
presented a 27,000 square foot police station to the voters for their approval. This plan
was to locate the new station on park land, which was the former Caulkins farm at Dorset
and Swift Streets. South Burlington voters rejected this plan in November 2008.
Subsequent to the latter voter rejection, the City Manager retained a Buyer's Broker, and
sought proposals from owners of land, with and without existing facilities, in South
Burlington for the City to consider as sites for a new police facility. These sites were
recently reported to the City Council in executive session.
The City Council is now considering construction of expanded space for its existing
municipal facilities for police, fire and City Hall presently located at 575 Dorset Street.
There are a number of possible options, which follow:
1. Additions and renovations to the existing facility at 575 Dorset Street to
accommodate police, fire and City Hall at said location
2. Demolition of part or all of the structure that houses police, fire and City Hall,
and construction of new facilities for these three functions at 575 Dorset
Street.
3. Splitting police, fire and City Hall functions by moving police services to a
site other than 575 Dorset Street, and either constructing a new building on
vacant land or renovating an existing facility, and moving City Hall to a
proposed City Center.
Scope of Services
The City Council requests proposals from qualified architectural firms for an analysis,
evaluation and prioritization of the current and future spatial needs for police, fire and
City Hall, as well as an evaluation and recommendation of the cost and best possible
location for these facilities. The architectural firm chosen shall be responsible directly to
the City Council for the following:
1. Secure, review and analyze all existing reports and designs for current and
future space needs for 5, 15 and 20 years for police, fire and City Hall
services.
2. Analyze, evaluate and prioritize the special needs for current and future needs
for 5, 15, and 20 years for police, fire and City Hall services.
3. Analyze and evaluate any strategic, functional and management advantages,
as well as any cost benefits to be derived by keeping these services on a single
campus at its present site, and do the same for moving the police and other
services to new locations and facilities presently being offered to and/or being
considered by the City.
4. Provide the Council with all relevant generic and development information for
the programs, designs and costs regarding any and all analysis and
recommendations for space and alternative locations for police, fire and City
Hall at existing or alternative sites.
5. Based on information gathered and the work outlined above in paragraphs one
through four, prepare a site analysis and make general recommendations
regarding the suitability of the existing site and structures to house the current
and future programs for police, fire and City Hall; analyze and recommend
whether these three existing facilities for police, fire and City Hall, or any part
thereof, can and should remain at the existing location of these services with
additions and/or renovations to these existing facilities; analyze and
recommend whether these three services and facilities should be demolished
and rebuilt at the existing site; and analyze and recommend whether these
three services and facilities should be separated and moved elsewhere.
6. For each option described in the preceding paragraph, prepare a cost benefit
analysis and preliminary building diagrams of proposed construction, general
spatial relationships for public/private circulation and usage for prisoner entry
and holding, offices, dispatch, evidentiary storage and meeting space, etc.; and
make general recommendations for a path forward.
7. Present a written narrative of your analysis of whether the existing 575 Dorset
Street facilities and site can meet the current and future functional needs of the
departments of police and fire and City Hall, or whether or not these needs
would be better met by moving them off their present site.
8. Meet with the Council and the public up to five times to provide the results of
your work, and make amendments to your work that the Council can use to
present to the voters for approval of appropriately located professional space
for police, fire and City Hall.
9. Conduct a comprehensive building evaluation to determine deficiencies and
develop a cost and scope of work to address same. This review should
include a full assessment of the following components: architectural,
mechanical, electrical, plumbing, fire protection, technology, hazardous
materials, and a structural analysis.
Time for Completion
The City Council requests architectural firms to complete the above scope of
services within three months of the date of the award of a contract.

Dear All,
Could we schedule an executive meeting after the April 7 meeting to discuss the properties as well as receive and review the additional
information delivered by Mike Simoneau last night? I'd like for us to build some momentum to move forward to a solution quickly. I'm
hoping that an immediate follow-up discussion on size needs would move us there.
Best,
Meaghan

Dear Member of the City Council of South By a CC
l
I am sure that some of you have read my lette
Other Paper last week, "The New Velco Powe
I mean this sincerely as they are not only a dis
part of the city environmentally unfriendly. `.■,y uiu t.ne city not take a
hard look in advance of what Velco was going to do. These power lines
and towers are ugly and they do not give our landscape a very pleasant
look. Where I live in County Club Estates, our community recreation
field will now look so unpleasant as if we were in the twlight zone.
Why was there not any consideration or a mandate to Velco to buried
these power lines where residential communities exist? How come a
little town like Charlotte can force Velco to buried their lines near
residential homes and we cannot?
Ladies and gentlemen of the council, how can we justify in the past
making a big issue over four picnic tables at a snack bar or a deck that
was 6" to close to the center line of the street and not look at what Velco
has done to our community.
I stand before you tonight and not only ask, but plead with you to do
something about these towers and transmission lines near and over
residential homes. I do not have the answer other than they should be
buried. I ask you the members of this council to take what ever it takes
to correct this situation before our city landscape is ruined and our
community has taken a step backward.
Sincerely
Jay L. Zaetz

Phased build-out:
In first 5-7 years-
Infrastructure- start with Market Street!
Public spaces- plaza and parking
300-500 housing units
250,000 sq. ft. office / commercial
200,000+ sq. ft. retail
50,000 sq. ft. municipal uses
What is the City doing ?
o Building infrastructure (the public realm)
Creating developable parcels by building roads
in specific places
c) Improving traffic conditions
(b Protecting & improving environmental quality
0 Requiring public improvements through the
Development Review Process
Setting parameters for design

Why is the City putting together plans if the
City doesn 't know what will be built?
• Must have credible plan for permitting
showing what is LIKELY to happen based on
zoning, market, demand if roads and
infrastructure are built.
• Must have realistic basis for traffic projections
to design road improvements.
• Must have pro forma for TIF financing.
What are the assumptions ?
Development will occur here; better to have it
happen in a planned way
This is a 20+ year plan, and plans will change
If the City builds the roads and creates the
blocks, it will spur appropriate development
Central School may move or close at some
point in the future, given surrounding
development
Elements of plan may move independently
(roads, stormwater system, economic
development)
Make Traffic Improvement
• Reconstruct Market Street w / signal at
Hinesburg Road
• White Street/Williston Road realignment
• New cross street from White Street to Dorset
Street (extension of Midas Drive)
• Construct new north-south extension of San
Remo Drive
I. Build northbound I-89 Exit 14 on-ramps and
new I-89 Exit 12B

Re: Interviews of applicants for appointment to the Burlington International Airport
Commission
To All Members:
The City has received the following applications for appointment to the Airport
Commission. The appointment is to the final year of a four-year term that expires in
2010 and a new four year appointment will need to be done next year. The vacancy has
occurred due to the passing of Michael Flaherty. Mr. Flaherty was appointed many years
ago and was a city council member at the time of his initial appointment.
The candidates, as of the time of this letter, are:
• Charles Bolton 5 Prouty Parkway
• Allan Bullis 30 Pine Street
• Stewart Boyd 204 Brand Farm Road
• Bill Cimonetti 1393 Spear Street
• Peter Plumeau 33 Knoll Circle
• Stephen Robbins 17 Mayfair Street
Information submitted by the candidates is attached.
The Council can choose to deliberate on appointments in executive session and I have
added an executive session to the agenda should you choose to do so. Appointment must
be made in public session. While there is no need to make the appointment this evening,
I believe the next meeting of the Commission is March 23ra

Mr.Chuck Haffner, City Manager
Mr.Chris Smith,City Council Chair
I am writing today to let you know I am interested in serving the city as the representative from South Burlington on the
Burlington International Airport Commission. I recently noticed the vacancy posted on the city web page due to the unfortunate
passing of Michael Flaherty.
I have served the city faithfully in the past on the Development Review Board as well as formerly and presently as a justice of
the peace. I am a native to the South Burlington and was raised on Pine Tree Terrace not far from the airport where over the
years I have had a variety of experiences. I was in the Air National Guard for many years. I completed civilian flight training at
the airport. I hold a FAA commercial pilot license with multi-engine and instrument endorsements. I also hold a FAA flight
instructor certificate. I have had considerable experience in the function of the airport environment as well as business activity
within the city for many years.
I believe I can uphold and continue to meet the required responsibilities as the city's representative and protect the interests of
South Burlington. I look forward to your response and would welcome an opportunity to answer any questions.
Sincerely,
Charles W.Bolton

Chuck Hafter
City Manager

South Burlington, VT 05403
Dear Chuck,
This letter is to notify you of my interest in the Burlington Airport Board of
Commissioners position. The position is very interesting to me as I have both a
background in aviation, and experience in local government as a member and chairperson
of the St. Albans Town Development Review Board. From 1994 through 1996 I was the
Airport Manager of the Franklin County State Airport in Highgate, VT and have been an
FAA certified pilot since 1986, and have held an FAA airframe and powerplant
mechanics certificate since 1993. As a member of the St. Albans DRB for three years,
chairperson for two of those three, I was actively involved in St. Albans local government
and worked closely with both the St. Albans Planning Commission and Selectmen in
managing the growth occurring in St. Albans Town during that period.
Since moving to South Burlington in 2004, I have been interested in participating or
contributing to the South Burlington community, and this position would give me the
opportunity to do so. Since moving to my current job with Ben& Jerry's, my business
travel has been reduced giving me an opportunity to be able to make a commitment to the
City of South Burlington in this role as the city's representative to the Burlington
International Airport Board of Commissioners.
As highlighted in my attached resume, I've held management positions in several large
multinational manufacturing companies with significant financial and project
management responsibilities, and am very comfortable working with both small and large
teams of people. I would be very interested in discussing this position with your selection
team and having the opportunity to discuss my background and experience, and how I
may add value to the Burlington International Airport Board of Commissioners.
Sincerely,
Stewart oyd

Mr. Charles Halter
City Manager
City of South Burlington
Dear Chuck,
I am writing to confirm my interest in serving as South Burlington's appointed
representative to the Burlington International Airport Commission, and to ask that you
submit my name to the City Council for consideration.
I have resided in South Burlington since 1963, and at the current address since 1977. It is
my intention to remain a resident of South Burlington for the foreseeable future.
I am a graduate of UVM, BS in Electrical Engineering, and of the Tuck Executive
Program of Dartmouth College. I am retired from the General Electric Company, having
served most of more than thirty years in the then Burlington based operation. During my
career with GE I was involved in both the aerospace and transportation businesses,
managing both military and commercial aircraft and rail products and programs.
After retirement from GE I held a number of appointed positions in state government
under Governors Snelling, Kunin, Dean, and Douglas. Governor Dean appointed me to
the Vermont Rail Council, Governor Douglas to the Transportation Board. I also was
elected to two terms in the Vermont General Assembly, serving on the House
Transportation Committee, (Vice Chair for my final term).
I served many years on the South Burlington City Council, several as Chair. I currently
serve on the City's Charter Committee and Recreation Path Committee. I am an elected
Justice of the Peace, and thus a member of the Board of Civil Authority. As a councilor I
represented South Burlington on the Metropolitan Planning Organization.
In recent years I have had many professional discussions with Mike Flaherty, Brian
Searles, Bob McEwing, and others regarding the operations and future planning of the
Burlington International Airport. My interests in transportation planning are keen, having
been honed by my education, professional experience, and public service duties. I feel that
I can bring value to the airport commission, and would pledge to serve South Burlington
with diligence and integrity.
I would very much appreciate your presenting my request for consideration for this
appointment to the City Council. Thank you very much.

Good morning, Chuck-
Attached please find my application letter and resume for the airport commission appointment. I will be available

Thanks.

RE: Application to Become South Burlington Representative on Airport Commission
Dear Mr.Hafter:
I am very interested in being appointed as South Burlington's representative to the Burlington
International Airport Board of Commissioners. As described in my attached resume,I believe
my background and qualifications would serve the City well as the Airport continues to
experience both"growing pains"and an economic climate that will present critical
opportunities and challenges to the Commission.
If the City Council appoints me to this position,I believe I will be able to effectively represent the
City from day one,drawing from both my local experience and my professional expertise. As
you know,I previously served as Executive Director of the CCMPO. Among my accomplishments
there was brokering an agreement between South Burlington,Burlington and the Airport to
undertake the first-ever comprehensive airport access study. I also serve on the Development
Review Board,and have gained a great deal of experience and perspective related to planning
and land use decision-making in our community that should prove very valuable in addressing
the significant current and future Airport-related land use issues.
My appointment would also provide the City with the benefit of my years of experience in
airport and aviation-related planning and analysis. I have worked across North America on a
variety of projects directly involving airport and aviation issues. Currently,I am working on a
national study of multi-airport governance options in congested airspace regions. My past work
includes assessing the FAA's Expanded East Coast Plan(an approach and departure system for
commercial airports in the Washington-Boston corridor),conducting an analysis of governance
options for a major metropolitan airport,and evaluating the efficacy of federal airline
regulations for Congress.
In sum,I continue to be very interested in working for the overall benefit of our community. I
believe my appointment to the Airport Commission would provide the City with an opportunity
to ensure the City's interests continue to be represented and articulated effectively.
I will make myself available for an interview the evening of March 16. I am also available to
discuss any aspects of my application as needed by phone or email. Thank you for the
opportunity to apply for this important position. I look forward to hearing from you.
Sincerely,
J�

Proclamation to Promote Use of Transportation Alternatives
Whereas, City of South Burlington's system of transportation relies largely on private
automobiles, but also includes carpools, vanpools, walking, and bicycling; and
Whereas, driving alone produces more pollution and costs more money over time than
utilizing alternative methods of transportation; and
Whereas, use of transportation alternatives encourages more physical activity and
exercise, ensures long-term health and addresses mounting health concerns facing
Vermont and the nation; and
Whereas, City of South Burlington's environmental quality is tied to clean air and water,
and minimizing pollution, and less driving will help protect these resources; and
Whereas, Way to Go! Commuter Challenge has garnered the support of City of South
Burlington's citizens and businesses who desire to encourage the use of cheaper,
healthier, and more earth-friendly transportation alternatives to driving alone; and
Whereas, City of South Burlington aims to be identified as the greenest commuting
community in 2009 by encouraging every resident to participate in the "Way to Go!
Community Challenge" — an annual competition among communities to achieve the
highest rate of citizen participation; and
Whereas, City of South Burlington wishes to improve the environment and the health of
all Vermonters via reduced pollution, driving costs, and expanded use and awareness of
transportation alternatives to solo car commuting during the week and all year long.
NOW THEREFORE, by the powers vested in me as City Council Chair, I, Mark
Boucher, Chair of City Council, do hereby proclaim May 4-8, 2009 as the week of the
Way to Go! Community Challenge

REGISTRATION IS NOW OPEN for the sixth annual Way to Go! Commuter Challenge,which
will take place May 4-8,2009. This event encourages the use of cheaper,healthier,and more
earth-friendly transportation alternatives to driving alone. Everyone who commits to walk,bike,
telecommute, carpool,take the bus or use any alternative to driving solo will receive free
giveaways and be entered in a drawing to win great prizes—iPods,Neuton®battery-powered
mowers,Burton snowboards,overnight stays,restaurant gift certificates,yoga passes,golf and
ski passes and more. Online registration is fast and easy at www.way govt.org.
Last year nearly 3,000 Way to Go! participants saved an estimated 237,000 commuting miles,
206,000 pounds of carbon dioxide,and$49,000 in transportation expenses. Organizers have set
this year's eal to-save-at-le-ast500 000 pounds-of-GO2, so-be-sure to-register-today at
www.waytgovt.org.
"This event is a great opportunity for folks to accept a new way to get to work, school or
anywhere else they might usually drive,"said Debra Sachs of Community Climate Action, 10%
Challenge, one of the event's organizers. "Way to Go! is designed to be easy and fun and
encourage everyone to explore other ways than driving alone every day. Interest in commuting
alternatively is sky-high and the Commuter Challenge proves that other ways to commute are
indeed the 'Way to Go'."
As in past years,businesses can compete in the"2009 Workplace Commuter Challenge"and go
head-to-head with other businesses to see who can encourage the highest percentage of
employees to walk,bike,telecommute,carpool or take the bus from May 4-8. The winning
employers will receive awards at a ceremony on June 5. Similarly, schools can compete with
each other through the Way to Go! School Challenge.
New this year is a challenge to Vermont communities. Who will be Vermont's "greenest
commuting city or town?"The winner will be decided based on the highest participation rate of
residents.
Way to Go! Commuter Challenge is made possible through the generous support of area
businesses and a partnership between the Chittenden County Metropolitan Planning
Organization,Vermont Agency of Transportation, Go Vermont, Chittenden County
Transportation Authority, Lake Champlain Committee, Local Motion, Campus Area
Transportation Management Association, and Community Climate Action, 10% Challenge. More
information on the Way to Go! Commuter Challenge is available at www.waytogovt.org.

Here's the link with all the most recent info. The event is May 4-8 this year. There was a "Share and

workplaces in the past, and also what initiatives they are doing to encourage alternative commuting. Jamie
spoke about Smart Business, along with general CCTA info. I'm not sure what else Chuck is looking for,

PLANNING & ZONING
MEMORANDUM
TO: South Burlington City Council
FROM: Paul Conner, Director of Planning & Zoning
DATE: March 16, 2009
SUBJECT: City Center/Market Street Overview
Hi all; let me start by welcoming our new councilors and our newly-appointed officers. I
look forward to meeting with each of you at our upcoming City Council meeting.
This week I'm here to discuss City Center, alongside our long-time consultant on the
project, Leo Roy from Vanasse Hangen Brustlin, Inc. Leo, a native of Colchester, has been
assisting the City on this project for several years and will be able to provide some
excellent perspective on how we've reached where we are today.
The outline for Monday evening is as follows:
1. A brief overview of City Center
To give a little context for the Council and the Public
a. Where is City Center?
b. Major property owners
c. A brief history of City Center
d. A brief overview of the concept
2. A breakdown of the projects known together as "City Center"
With the size of this project, it's not always made clear that it's actually 2-3
projects in one
a. A road improvement/ construction project, with Federal funding to help
with the planning, permitting design & reconstruction of Market Street &
other roads.
b. A stormwater project, with funding from the Army Corps of Engineers, to
improve conditions of stormwater that currently from existing development
(Dorset Street, Williston Road, parts of the Airport Parkway & Mayfair Park
neighborhoods) onto the "City Center" property and into the Potash Brook.
575 Dorset Street South Burlington, VT 05403 tel 802.846.4106 fax 802.846.4101 www.sburl.com
c. A development concept for the mixed use "downtown" that we have been
working with South Burlington residents, South Burlington Realty
Company, the School Board, and other landowners over the past several
years to design.
Clearly, these three projects are closely linked. But as separate projects, or
issues, they don't all have to move in lock-step. As we will discuss at the
meeting, though, there are a couple of key actions that will allow any/all of
these to move forward.
3. The final alignment for Market Street
The current "Market Street"was never designed for substantial public use and will
need to be completely re-done (bedding and all) before it is up to City standards.
Before this happens, though, we need to settle on a final location for the Street.
The issue has come to you at this time for two important reasons:
a. The City has received an application for development at the (current)
corner of Market Street and Hinesburg Road. The Development Review
Board will need some guidance in the near future as to where Market Street
will be located in order to complete their review.
b. The City has had an Environmental Assessment prepared for the Market
Street/ City Center project, per Federal requirements. The public comment
period has passed, so it's nearly complete. To finish the work, however, we
need to show the proposed final alignment for Market Street in the planning
documents.

TO: South Burlington City Council
FROM: Paul Conner, Director of Planning & Zoning
DATE: March 16th, 2009
SUBJECT: City Center Partner Status Updates
Council members,
I asked our two principal partners in the City Center effort, South Burlington Realty
Company, LLC, and the South Burlington School District to provide a brief update on the
work they have been doing over the past six months. See below
South Burlington Realty Company
• Reviewed thoroughly the preliminary and final Draft Market Street Environmental
Assessment (EA) including technical exhibits and provided comments thereupon to
Vanasse Hangen Brustlin, Inc., (VHB) where appropriate.
• Submitted a letter of support after attending the EA hearing.
• Engaged the services of a ORW Landscape Architects and Planners to serve as our
Owner's Representative to help with moving forward on a market-based plan. Several
months of meetings and discussions were spent going in another direction with this
task; the decision to hire ORW was made recently and promises to be fruitful.
• Hired a former employee, Tim McKenzie, who has substantial experience and
expertise in various areas which relate to City Center including contacts with major
office tenant prospects. The expectation of substantial activity at City Center in the
next couple of years weighed heavily on this hiring decision.
• Reviewed and discussed at length the expected steps of the land transfer process.
• Reviewed as an ongoing task the latest master plan and possible variations with regard
to market conditions, functional and aesthetic qualities, phasing, construction
logistics and other issues likely to influence a successful outcome.
• Reviewed the latest Design Review proposal and formulated a response.
• In the process of hiring an appraiser for the land swap process.
South Burlington School District
• Completed an Educational Visioning + Facility Master Planning study, exploring
potential alternatives for school facilities in the future (www.sbschools.net)
• Confirmed ownership of the Rick Marcotte Central School property
• Completed an appraisal of the Rick Marcotte Central School property

PLANNING & ZONING
MEMORANDUM
TO: South Burlington City Council
FROM: Paul Conner, Director of Planning & Zoning
DATE: March 16, 2009
SUBJECT: Market Street Alignment Details
As I noted in the cover memo, one of the key City Center-related issues in front of us at
this point is the alignment of Market Street.
First, a brief background. Asyou know, Market Street as it currentlystands is in rough
g g
shape. Until five (5) years ago, in fact, it was a private road owned and operated by Randy
Munson of South Burlington Realty. It was closed off for much of the year, opened for the
Holiday season by Mr. Munson to help relieve traffic. In late 2004, Mr. Munson donated
the road to the City. In that same general timeframe, the City was fortunate to receive two
Federal transportation earmarks to support the reconstruction of Market Street and the
related interconnecting street network that would support a City Center. The first was for
$1 million; the second for $5 million.
Two important notes to add at this point:
1. Regardless of Market Street's final location (including its current alignment), it will
need to be completely reconstructed in order to be truly serviceable in the future.
2. The 50' wide right-of-way under the current Market Street alignment is the ONLY
land in City Center owned by the City of South Burlington.
Planning for Market Street and City Center. After hosting a well-attended community
charrette (workshop) in March 2005, the City and its consultant Vanasse Hangen
Brustlin, Inc. (VHB) , explored options for where the future City Center road network
would be laid out. The Draft Environmental Assessment presents a "preferred" alternative
for this network.
For the purposes of this March 16th meeting, I'd like to on focus on Market Street, as this
street has presents an issue at hand. Three changes/additions to the current alignment of
Market Street are proposed in the Environmental Assessment.
575 Dorset Street South Burlington, VT 05403 tel 802.846.4106 fax 802.846 4101 www.sburl.corn
My hope is to have a good discussion of the alignment of Market Street, and of its eastern
terminus in particular. The three segments are:
1. The west end. A traffic analysis performed by VHB clearly indicated that if Market
Street is to become a full, paved public road, there must be a left turn lane added at
its intersection with Dorset Street. In order to accomplish this, the City will need
to purchase a small strip of land (10-15') from the edge of the Blue Mall property.
This is a necessary acquisition for the City. Staff fully supports this proposal.
2. The central section. In designing the future "blocks" to be created in City Center,
and after identifying the desire and need to maintain to the Potash Brook in as
natural a state as possible, it was felt that shifting Market Street slightly northwards
would be a great benefit to all parties involved. By shifting the road northwards, it
would allow for a more economically feasible development "block" to the south,
without creating any adverse impacts elsewhere. In order to accomplish this, the
City and South Burlington Realty Company would make a one-for-one land swap.
Staff has no objections to this proposal, as it has no negative consequences to the
City.
3. The east end. The eastern terminus of Market Street with Hinesburg Road is the
most challenging section in terms of determining the "best" alignment. As the
enclosed map indicates, the current road (in red) is located approximately 80'
north of the back end of Iby Street's properties.
Between Market Street and the Iby Street properties are two privately-owned
properties. A small parcel at the southwest corner of Market Street and Hinesburg
Road contains a single family home. West of this small parcel is a larger parcel
owned by South Burlington Realty that is presently forested.
Essentially, there are two options for the final alignment of Market Street at its
eastern end.
Option 1: Keep Market Street in its present alignment, retaining the 80'
wide private property to the south.
Option 2: Move Market Street 50' to the south, creating a 30' publically
owned wooded area, and likely making a land exchange for property to the
north.
There are pros and cons to each alternative. The Draft Environmental Assessment
calls for Option 2, but it's not too late to choose Option 1. We are in a position,
however, where one of these two options does need to be finalized. The
Development Review Board has received an application for development at the
northwest corner of the current Market Street and Hinesburg Road. It will be very
helpful for the DRB to have the alignment of the road settled prior to their making
their decisions.
2
Option 1 (Keep the Street where it is)
Reasons why this is a good idea:
• No change in current public expectations for the location of the Street
• Proposal before the DRB assumes the Street will stay where it is
• City does not need to acquire single family home at SW corner (friendly
acquisition or condemnation)
• City does not need to organize a land swap for forested area
• Forested area can stay forested until development actually takes place
• Road would be further away from Iby Street homes
Possible ramifications of this choice:
• If the Street remains in its current location, it is conceivable and even likely
that at some point, the forested piece of land will be built upon. It is privately
owned land. I had our consultants, VHB, do a quick analysis of the property,
and they found that it is a developable piece of land. We did this exercise to
make sure that neighbors on Iby Street understand that the choice of not
moving the road does not guarantee the continued existence of the treed area.
Option 2 (Move the Street 50' south)
Reasons why this is a good idea:
• No development, other than the street, would be located between Iby Street
properties and Market Street
• A 30' forested area would belong to the City, buffering the Iby Street
neighborhood
• A land exchange with South Burlington Realty may allow for a more
developable parcel to be established on the north wide of Market Street
Possible ramifications of this choice:
• The most serious concern is that if the City is required to follow a
condemnation process for the purchase of the single family home (I have not
had communication with the property owner here, who lives in Florida), we
may face legal and political opposition from neighbors. This could be costly
and time-consuming. The second ramification is that there will likely be
increased traffic noise over what would be the case if the road stayed in its
current location.
3
Iby Street Neighborhood Meeting
Leo Roy and I met with neighbors from Iby Street on January 27`h. This very snowy
night revealed the heartiness of our residents as the majority of homes on the
street were represented at our meeting over at St.John Vianney church that night.
We had a very positive discussion. Leo gave an overview of City Center and
Market Street. A good discussion was had over the pros and cons of the two most
likely alternatives: one that leaves the road where it is and has some form a
townhouse development between Market Street and the rear of the Iby Street
properties, and one that moves the road 50' to the south and may result in some
increased traffic noise.
Neighbors discussed which types of"noise" would better: that of traffic, or that of
additional housing. A show of hands was called for by one of the residents. Of the
twenty (20) or so in attendance, 12-13 were in favor of the road remaining in its
current alignment at its eastern end; the remainder preferred it be moved 50'
south.
Recommendation from the Director of Planning & Zoning: after considerable
review of this issue, and meeting with the residents of Iby Street and the property
at the northwest corner of Market Street and Hinesburg Road, it is my
recommendation that the Council keep the current alignment of the east end of
Market Street.
I believe that this is the solution that will result in:
1. The least overall cost to the City;
2. The most expedient permitting and reconstruction of Market Street; and,
3. From what I have heard from residents, the more acceptable alternative to a
majority of those I had the opportunity to meet with.
And while "developability of land" is not a primary City concern, VHB's evaluation
is that there will not be a substantial overall difference between the two
alternatives.

Re: Consideration of acceptance of State Bridge reports
To All Members:
The State of Vermont inspects every bridge over 20 feet long in the state on a bi-annual
basis. These reports are provided to all municipalities for their review. The State requires
that elected boards acknowledge receipt of these reports, although no action to implement
the reports is required.
Attached are the reports for the Lime Kiln Bridge and the Patchen Road Bridge. Both
bridges are in very good condition with the Lime Kiln Bridge rebuilt in 2006 and the
Patchen Road Bridge rebuilt in 1996. In addition, we have another bridge over Muddy
Brook on Poor Farm Road for which we did not receive a report. This was rebuilt in the
mid-90's and is also in good shape. (We have been very proactive about our bridges and
are not in the same shape as many Vermont communities.) The State is very, very
conservative in their evaluations. Note that the Lime Kiln Bridge is given an 8 out of 10
on Waterway Adequacy because there is "a slight chance of overtopping of roadway". If
the Lime Kiln Bridge is ever overtopped by a flood, we will have much greater problems
in Vermont.
Please indicate that you have seen these reports and have shared them with staff.
Sincerely,
Chuck Hafter
City Manager

RE: Calendar Year 2008 Bridge Inspection Summary Reports
Dear Community Official:
As required by the Federal Surface Transportation Act of 1978,all bridges exceeding 20 feet in span length
are inspected on a 24 month cycle. A two-member team performs these inspections,with at least one member
specially trained for this work. The Agency of Transportation provides these inspections as a service to the
municipalities with the cost split between the Federal government(80%)and the State(20%).
Enclosed are the bridge inspection report summaries for structures located in your community which were
inspected in calendar year 2008. This report format is intended to provide consistency in the method and type of
information reported.
With approximately 1,50o structures inspected statewide annually,the intent of these inspection summary
reports is to provide an inventory of and information on the structural condition and a summary of areas of need only
and not to offer an assessment regarding prioritization,preventative maintenance techniques which should be done
as good practice,or specific recommendations on how to address deficiencies.
Each report represents a locally owned and maintained structure. As such,the municipality is responsible
for the structure. It is recommended that these reports be shared with those individuals charged with upkeep of the
structures as failure to address and/or remediate problems areas,stated within the summary section of this report,
may result in additional damage or deterioration compromising public safety and/or substantially reducing the
service life of the structure.
For the record,it is requested that the attached form be completed and returned to this office.
Please do not hesitate to contact this office or your local District Transportation Administrator with any
questions or concerns regarding the content of these summary reports or if you are aware of any structures,exceeding
20 feet in span length,which we are not currently,and should be inspected.

Re: Annual appointment of Town Service Officer
To All Members:
Each year the City Council is required under state law to appoint a person to fill the position of
Town Service Officer. The TSO is available 24 hours to find temporary shelter for transients or
other individuals in their town. The housing is provided in local motels and provided until the
State social services office opens the next day, or after a weekend. The State of Vermont
reimburses the TSO for all costs and pays a minimum wage to the TSO upon request.
I have been the City of South Burlington TSO for many years. I have averaged, at most, one call
a month(relayed through the Economic Services answering service to my home).
However, recently these calls can average up to 5 a week and come in anytime between the close
of business at social services and 2 am, and on weekends. I have informed City Council I am no
longer willing to perform this function. Almost none of the calls come from South Burlington
residents; the needy are from other Vermont communities or out-of-state, who happen to be in
1 South Burlington when they call Economic Services.
I have advertised for a replacement in the Other Paper, but unsurprisingly have had no takers.
Under state law, if there is no appointed TSO,the position defaults to a member of the City
Council!
I have discussed this issue previously with City Council and my suggestion to consolidate our
TSO with Burlington's TSO. This is permissible under state law and makes sense since we use
the exact same hotels. Jean Erno,the Burlington TSO, handles about 5-8 calls each night and
earns her living by providing these services(I have never submitted a bill due to the low level of
services prior to this year.) She is willing to handle our calls and Mayor Kiss has also agreed to
my plan.
Attached is the paperwork to appoint Ms. Erno starting April 15, 2009. I recommend you do so.
Sincerely,
luck after

MEMO TO: Chairman. Board of Sel t an
FROM: Joe Patrissi, Dep . Toner
DATE: February 17, 20 9
SUBJECT: Town Service Officer Appointments in accordance with 33 V.S.A. §2102
The term of office of your present Town Service Officer expires on April 14, 2009. Vermont law
provides for the appointment for a Town Service Officer by the Selectmen for each town on or before
April 15th of each year.
I'd like to suggest that you give serious consideration to the following when you consider persons for
this appointment:
➢ Does the candidate really know the people of your community?
➢ Is the candidate available to meet emergencies when the local Department for Children and
Families (DCF) office is closed (nights or weekends)?
➢ Can the candidate be depended upon to maintain in complete confidence (as required by law)the
names of people who are receiving assistance?
To ensure continued availability of a Town Service Officer to assist needy individuals in your
community,please provide the name, address, and telephone number of the person named to fill the
position as soon as possible. If the selectmen experience difficulty determining an appropriate
candidate for the town service officer position,the law permits alternative ways that the selectmen may
fulfill their statutory responsibility. Because the law allows an appointed town service officer to serve
simultaneously for more than one town, you might consider making arrangements to share a town
officer with an adjacent town. In addition, a selectman may be a town service officer and is expected
to act on behalf of the town service officer in his or her absence.
Please complete the enclosed form even if you appoint your current Town Service Officer to a
subsequent term and return it in the enclosed, self-addressed envelope by March 31, 2009.
If you do not respond by that date, the Town Service Officer currently listed for your town will remain
on file in our records and may get telephone calls in emergencies.
Thank you for your assistance. .,

Ms. Emery: Contacted Louise Murphy to set up a brown-bag lunch with Channel 17
people, 11 March,Noon.
Received an e-mail from resident regarding the letter in the Other Paper about
taxes paid by the Airport. Mr. Hafter said this is all public information. He noted that
the value of any properties purchased by the Airport is added to what the Airport pays in
taxes. He stressed that the City not not lose any tax money when the Airport purchases a
property.
Mr. Hafter: Item#5 on the Agenda(Family Center)will not be heard at this meeting due

As part of the 2 March meeting, candidates for City Council will be present to
make a presentation to the public. Mr. Hafter asked members what form they would like
this to take. Members felt each candidate should be given a few minutes of introduce
himself and then allow questions from the public. Members felt there should be a
moderator for the presentation.
Mr. Boucher suggested holding the meeting at the Middle School and including a
presentation on the school budget.
3. Public Hearing on FHWA funded Tilley Drive Recreation Path
Enhancement Project:
Mr. Jacobowitz, new Chair of the Rec Path Committee, said they will be bringing forth
changes to their Charter and policy recommendations. There will also be a map of city
Rec Paths. He requested a meeting with the Council on 6 April.
Mr. Bresee advised that the Tilley Dr. Project is moving from the planning phase to
construction, and there is a legal requirement for this public hearing. He showed maps of
the area, including existing buildings and the proposed path. The path will connect
residences with office buildings and will connect office buildings with each other. The
path will be 850 ft. in length.
Mr. Bresee showed an archeologically sensitive area from which objects dating to 7000
B.C. have been uncovered.
Problems related to the impaired waterway(Potash Brook) have been solved.
The City asked the state for$300,000 with a 20%match. They received $200,000 (all
federal funds). The City will have to provide $25,000 in cash and$25,000 "in kind."
4. Discussion with Burlington International Airport regarding accelerated
acquisition schedule for 2009 due to larger than expected federal appropriation:
Mr. Worthen reviewed the past history and noted that the Airport had been given
permission to acquire 10 homes per year in 2009-10. Due to a larger than expected
appropriation from the federal government, they are able to increase this to 20 next year,
and 20 in 2011. The 40 additional homes would be located at the following streets:

Airport Dr. 9 LeDuc Terr 1
Airport Pkwy 3 Maryland St 3
Delaware St. 3 Patrick St. 5
Dumont Ave 11 Pump Lane 1
Elizabeth St 2 White St. 2
Mr. Clemens asked whether people would be forced out if they don't want to sell. Mr.
Worthen said nobody can be forced to sell. Mr. Boucher said the only way the city could
take any property is if they wanted to build a road there. Mr. Hafter said the city cannot
take anyone's property to give it to someone else.
Mr. Boucher said there needs to be a contingency in the Master Plan for homes out of the
65 db area.
Ms. Lemay, who lives on Picard Circle, said it has been their experience that there is no
affordable housing in the City that isn't being bought by the Airport. They can't find any
housing in South Burlington and don't want to leave the City. Mr. Worthen said that as
part of the Airport's commitment to the City,the Airport would identify where houses
could go to replace some of the houses being taken down. Mr. Lemay noted that all 3
families that moved from Picard Circle had to leave South Burlington, and they didn't
want to do that. Mr. Boucher stressed that residents in this position should ask the
Airport for South Burlington comparables.
Mr. Leavens asked about houses previously acquired by the Airport and whether those
taxes are being paid by the Airport. Mr. Hafter said that is in negotiation and that any
contract will be voted on in public.
Mr. Leavens asked about other entities that own property on the Airport. Mr. Hafter said
the only property covered in the stabilization agreement is property owned by the Airport,
everything else pays full taxes.
Mr. Leavens said he didn't think the citizens of South Burlington are getting a fair shake.
Mr. Boucher said that before he can be comfortable with the new plan, the tax agreement
has to be finalized and noise issues have to be addressed. He said there needs to be a
ground measurement of noise and an agreement that this will not increase.
CITY COUNCIL
17 FEBRUARY 2009

Mr. Worthen said they met with landscape and Airport people last week to discuss the
"living wall." They are planning a trip to see one of these and will put up a test one to
take sound measurements. Mr. Boucher said they need to measure sound levels now and
be sure these don't increase as houses are taken down.
Ms. Kirby said she has lived in the neighborhood since age 11 and has heard issues for a
long time about the Airport wanting to put in a road. She said she would rather see a
block of houses come down than doing it piecemeal.
Ms. Deering said she knew the situation when she bought her home. She felt it was sad
that there isn't housing that people can move into. She also hated to see the City Council
and the public ask questions of the Airport and not get straight answers. She felt that
even if the Airport can't force them out,they can make it"very uncomfortable." She
asked how the City of Burlington can be voting on increasing the height of the existing
parking garages when they don't have permission from the City of South Burlington to
do that.
Mr. Magowan said the Airport can't begin to tell South Burlington it is credible when
they didn't tell South Burlington in January that they are going to Burlington voters for
the money to expand the parking garages in March. Mr. Worthen said they weren't
trying to hide anything,but he acknowledged this could have been handled differently.
He apologized on behalf of the Airport. Mr. Magowan said he asked in January about
"going up with the parking garage" and all he got for an answer was a shrug of the
shoulders.
Mr. Smith said based on the past, there is a level of distrust. The Council does not want
"surprises" at every meeting.
Mr. Paquette suggested some ways to improve communication, including a list of
"frequently asked questions,"providing of minutes from all meetings, and a"question
and answer" list before meetings.
Mr. Leavins said he was skeptical that all of this was really about noise. He said there are
a lot of sound abatement programs where people come in and soundproof homes.
Ms. Desso said she understands everyone's point of view. She favored the Airport
buying blocks of homes at one time. She felt the Airport deserved"good faith" for
working with a living wall concept. She also felt it was a good idea to speed up
acquisitions. If people aren't ready to sell yet, they shouldn't have to.
Mr. Conner noted the City website has an up-to-date Airport section.
CITY COUNCIL
17 FEBRUARY 2009
PAGE 5
Ms. Kirby said there are a lot of people who come into Elizabeth and Patrick Streets and
block the roads and use the streets for a turn-around because they can't tell where the
Airport is. She felt better signage is needed.
Mr. Boucher moved to approve the increased pace of the Airport program subject to two
agreements to come to the City for approval: 1)tax agreement and 2) noise agreement.
Ms. Emery seconded.
Mr. Magowan said that in January, the Council gave a lot of thought to an acquisition
plan. He was troubled that a few weeks later, that plan is being doubled. If 10 was the
right number then,why is 20 right today? He felt it was a mistake and he would vote
against it.
Ms. Dooley felt the demand is there and the program won't go away. She didn't want the
neighbors to pay the price.
In the vote that followed, the motion passed 4-1 with Mr. Magowan voting against.
Mr. Boucher said he wanted to see this on the agenda for the first meeting in May with
the option to go back down to 10 homes. He also wanted regular updates. Ms. Emery
agreed.
5. Proposal to Establish an Independent Maintenance Committee:
Mr. Boucher said the City needs a plan for long-term capital projects and maintenance.
He suggested a committee of 3 professionals appointed by the City Council under the
Direction of the Director of Public Works. The Committee would look at buildings,
roads,bike paths, sewers, etc. It would be funded by the Rooms &Meals Tax revenue.
Mr. Magowan felt it shouldn't be limited to professionals. Rep. Audette felt people from
each department should be involved.
Mr. Halter said that to get anything from the Committee for the next budget, it should be
appointed soon.
Mr. Boucher moved to approve formation of a Maintenance Committee consisting of 3-5
citizens to be staffed by the Director of Public Works. Ms Dooley seconded. Motion
passed unanimously.
6. Discussion of Policy for Public Notification Responsibilities and Use of
Electronic Media:
CITY COUNCIL
17 FEBRUARY 2009
PAGE 6
Mr. Smith applauded Ms. Emery for putting information on Front Porch Forum,but he
felt meeting notifications should be placed by city staff. Ms. Emery felt she should be
informing the people who elected her and took on this task when she was elected. Mr.
Boucher said if it is purely informational, it should be an expectation of city staff. Mr.
Magowan said he has issues with Front Porch Forum and wished the City could have its
own vehicle.
A member of the audience felt that if you pick and choose what you put out there, you
disenfranchise people who might be interested in something you leave out.
Mr. Boucher suggested the idea of a"Councilor's Corner"in The Other Paper. Rep.
Audette noted that the City's legislators try to do something for the Other Paper every
other month.
7. Review Development Review Board Agenda for meeting of 17 February
2009:
No issues were raised.
8. Review and approve Minutes from Special City Council meeting of 26
January 2009:
Mr. Boucher moved to approve the Minutes of 26 January as written. Mr. Magowan
seconded. Motion passed unanimously.
9. Review and Approve Minutes from City Council meeting of 2 February
2009:
It was noted that on p. 1 the next Council meeting date should be 2 March.
Ms. Emery moved to approve the Minutes of 2 February as amended. Ms. Dooley
seconded. Motion passed unanimously.
10. Sign Disbursement Orders:
Disbursement Orders were signed.
11. Liquor Control Board:
Mr. Boucher moved the Council adjourn and reconvene as Liquor Control Board. Ms.
Dooley seconded. Motion passed unanimously.

Ms. Dugan reviewed the history of the program. She noted that a public hearing was
held on Friday attended by 25 community members including residents of existing
housing and those looking for housing. Ms. Dugan noted that some people have been on
the waiting list for senior housing for 5 years.
The Resolution authorizes the City Manager to be the contact person for the grant
process.
Mr. Magowan moved to approve the Resolution for the Vermont Community
Development Program Grant Application as presented. Ms. Emery seconded. Motion
passed unanimously.
5. Presentation of City and School Budgets:

This translates to a$42/year increase for the average South Burlington single family
home and $28/year for the average South Burlington condo.

PAGE 3
Pension Fund($271,000) -Mr. Boucher noted that the city has made a
commitment to keep up with the funding,unlike the City of Burlington that has an
underfunding of $60,000,000
Mr. Halter cited the efforts of Department Heads and the City Council to keep costs
down. Some things that were cut from the budget included: elimination of 2 part time
bike path patrol persons, part time help in Public Works, tree planting, conferences, etc.
Mr. Hafter noted that the City Council budgeted in a different way this year. Instead of
looking at line items,they focused on programs and considered what programs are
essential in the city. Some programs they decided to cut or reduce in funding include:
Public Works: mailbox replacement installation(mailboxes will now be given to
homeowners to install at a savings to the city of$6000)
Public Works: not building a second salt shed this year
Not rejoining the National League of Cities
Reduced social services funding by 15%
City Clerk: office will no longer be open one evening a week
Library: closing 2 hours earlier on Saturdays
Not funding National Night Out (will look for private funding)
Limited staffing at Red Rocks Park
The only new personnel position in the proposed budget is one police officer.
Mr. Hafter noted that the average monthly cost for all city services is $94 to a home
owner and $69 to a condo owner. He also noted that Police, Fire and Public Works
funding represents 75% of the city budget.
Mr. Hafter then reviewed ballot items for voter approval:
a. Use of the rooms and meals tax revenue to fund road repair/upkeep. Mr. Hafter
noted that the City Council will be appointing a new Maintenance Committee to deal
with upkeep of City infrastructure.
b. Revisions to the City Charter: Mr. Gravelin reviewed the process for the
Charter revisions including 10 citizen committee meetings, 2 public forums, and 2 City
Council public hearings. Some of the changes include:
1. gender neutrality language
2. a new section to allow for reserve funds
3. revisions to comply with changes in State law
CITY COUNCIL

5. institution of neighborhood forums
Mr. Gravelin noted that the Committee spent a lot of time discussing the form of city
government and agreed that for a city of this size, the current form of government is best.
Mr. Hafter noted that next year's budgeting will be even harder, and people will have to
begin thinking about costs of services.
Mr. Boucher said the Council's goal was to not add to unemployment by reducing staff
Mr. Magowan added that they tried to maintain the City's standard of services. He cited
the core of professionalism in the City and stressed the importance of maintaining
infrastructure so that problems don't escalate. Ms. Emery applauded the responsible City
staff
Rep. Audette cited the importance of keeping budgets as low as possible as the State is
expecting a$250,000,000 shortfall next year.
Mr. Smith said South Burlington is the best run city in the State. He cited the benefit of
changing the way the Council looked at budgeting. He said it allowed for spirited debate
about what the City needs and doesn't need.
A member of the audience asked how much was spent on City Hall repairs. Mr. Hafter
said approximately$335,000.
An audience member asked how much was spent on San Remo Drive. Mr. Hafter
explained that the City received a$250,000 enhancement grant for that work which
required a$100,000 local contribution.
An audience member applauded the change in voting from May to March when everyone
else is voting.
Mr. Hafter stressed that the City of South Burlington is in very good financial shape.
Spending is in line with revenues, and there is a very low level of bonded debt.
Mr. Boucher said the hope is to have a plan in place next year so that money can be put
aside each year for maintenance of public facilities.
Superintendent Everitt then presented the proposed 2009-2010 School Budget:
He began by outlining the goals of the budget including:
•
CITY COUNCIL
2 MARCH 2009
PAGE 5
1. Maintain Quality:
a. Student Outcomes
b. Learning Opportunities (especially at the high school level; a
pilot program will be geared to student interests, including internships, etc., to help
prepare students for their futures)
c. Facilities Stewardship (an effort is being made to deal with
facilities upkeep within the budget so voters will not be asked to approve bond issues for
that work)
2. Make Improvements:
a. Curriculum& Instruction(various initiatives)
b. Strategic Plan (has been in place for several years; continuing
focus on communication)
c. Operation Efficiencies
3. Financial Sustainability:
a. Tightening Controls
b. Future Financial Obligations
Total enrollment at South Burlington schools is estimated at 2408 for the coming year.
This includes 147 tuition students. An effort is being made to encourage tuition students.
Supt. Everitt then reviewed budget considerations including reductions in administrative
costs. He noted that the per pupil cost will increase by 5.75%. The total budget increase
is 3.55% (4.37%with a new federal grant). The residential tax rate would actually go
down one cent;however with the CLA adjustment it increases by 4.5 cents.
The increase in taxes per$100,000 of assessed value is $45.00.
A member of the audience asked about the "two vote"budget vote process. Supt. Everitt
explained that any district whose budget increase above a certain percent has to divide the
budget vote into two steps (one at the allowable percent and one item for the amount over
that). He noted that South Burlington falls far below the level that would require two
ballot items.
Following the budget presentations, Mr. Smith invited members of the audience to
remain to hear presentations from the candidates for City Council positions.

Mondays of the month, at 7:00 p.m., in the Conference Room of City Hall, except for
those meeting which are held at community schools. Ms. Dooley seconded. Motion
passed unanimously.
Mr. Murray suggested that since the next agenda includes the appointment a new
representative to the Airport Commission, that the meeting be held at Chamberlin School.
He noted that in canvassing the city as he ran for the Council seat, residents of that area
had many concerns about the Airport activities. He felt that those residents should be
able to express their opinions about the role the new Airport Commissioner should play.
Members agreed. Mr. Hafter said he would check to see if the school is available that
night and will notify The Other Paper and ask the Airport to send a notice to neighbors on
their e-mail list.

Re: Consideration of Annual Entertainment License; Two Friends Bistro, 1210 Williston Road;
Live DJ, Friday and Saturday nights
To All Members:
Attached is an Entertainment License application from Two Friends Bistro, 1210 Williston Road.
The operators of the restaurant are requesting an entertainment permit to permit a live disc jockey
from 9:30 pm to 1 am on Friday and Saturday nights. The use of the property was permitted as a
Restaurant by the DRB, but as the Bistro continues to serve a full-menu until closing, they remain
in compliance with the permitted use.
The City issues two licenses related to restaurant/night club operation. The Liquor License is
issued by the Liquor Control Board acting as agents for the State of Vermont. The City Council
also constitutes the LCB; however,you will notice later on the agenda the Council will adjourn as
the City Council and reconvene as Liquor Control Board to approve classl and class 2 liquor
licenses for South Burlington permitees. (Class 1 permits serving beer and wine in a restaurant.
Class 2 permits sales for off-site consumption of beer and wine. Class 3,which regulates all sales
of hard liquor, or sprits, requires State approval and does not come before the local LCB.) All
liquor licenses run May 1-April 30. This is the reason you will be seeing so many renewal
requests at the next several meetings.
The second license is purely a local one. This is the entertainment license which is authorized by
our City Charter. The Council adopted this license in 1995 as a response to some undesired
entertainment in South Burlington. This is the application you are being asked to approve this
evening.
The City has not had any problems from Two Friends Bistro and has no objections to the license
being issued. I have had a phone call from the owner of the property, Merle Jarvis, who does not
want the license issued as he believes it violates his lease with Two Friends. (Higher Ground may
have an exclusive for entertainment in their lease with Mr. Jarvis). I have informed Mr.Jarvis
that the City reviews the issuance of entertainment licenses based on the criteria in the Ordinance.
We cannot enforce his private lease provisions, but he certainly has his own opportunity to do so.
Sincerely,
V

Memorandum

To: Chair and City Council
From: Chuck Hafter, City Manager te,
Re: Consider entering Executive Session to deliberate on appointments to Boards and
Commissions and Real Property Acquisition
I have set an executive session in case Council wants to deliberate after the interviews on
appointment to the Airport Commission. The appointment must be made in public
session. It does not have to be this evening.
I have also added real property acquisition to discuss the latest opportunity with the
Marceau property. I have sent you e-mail regarding the current proposal, which appears
favorable to the City. The Marceaus would like Council to adopt a letter of intent, but I
am having Steve Stitzel talk with the Marceau attorney to discuss ramifications of an
agreement and to draft a letter of intent if appropriate.
If the session is not needed, you do not need to have it.
