Re: Findings of Fact, application of Amy Sylvester Averill to subdivide a 19.65 acre parcel into two
(2) lots of 13.98 acres and 5.67 acres, 1985 Spear Street,
On the 28'h day of April, 28, 1998, the South Burlington Planning Commission approved preliminary
and final plat applications of Amy Sylvester Averill for preliminary and final plat approval under
Section 203 and 204 respectively of the South Burlington Subdivision regulations based on the
following findings:
1. This project consists of the subdivision of a 19.65 acre lot (13.98 acres in South Burlington and
6.44 acres in Shelburne) into two (2) lots of 13.98 acres (lot #1) and 5.67 acres (lot #2). Lot #1 is
developed with a single family dwelling. This property lies partially in South Burlington and partially
in Shelburne. The new lot being created (lot #2) lies entirely within Shelburne. The City Attorney
has ruled that we should treat this subdivision as if it was entirely within the City of South Burlington.
This subdivision will be treated as a major subdivision because lot #2 has no road frontage. The
sketch plan was reviewed on 3/24/98 .
2. This property located at 1985 Spear Street lies within the RI and R2 Districts. It is bounded on
the north, west and south by residences and undeveloped land, and the east by residences and Spear
Street.
3. Access: Access to lot #1 is provided by a curb cut on Spear Street. Access to lot #2 will be
provided by a 20 foot r.o.w. across lot #1 since lot #2 has no road frontage. The metes and bounds
information for the r.o.w. should be shown on the final plat. Both lots will share the same curb cut.
4. Lot size/frontage: Both lots meet the minimum lot size requirement of one (1) acre.
5. Lot #1 meets the lot frontage requirement of 170 feet. Lot #2 has no frontage.
6. Sewer: No additional sewer allocation needed. The proposed dwelling will be located in
Shelburne.
7. Other:
— the final plat plan should show any existing or proposed water lines serving either lot.
