Hello Marla,
Thank you for the email. Georges and I spoke and are in agreement that the time for a full technical review would be
beneficial. This would give us the opportunity to look into a fuller range of details, including the driveway geometry that
you raise below. Please let us know how the 3/15 meeting goes in terms of this authorization or if we should plan to
begin the full review now.
In the initial review I primarily focused on trip generation. The attached Excel file shows discrepancies between BFJ
analysis and L&D analysis, with lots 10-15 highlighted for the phase at hand. The bottom table shows the difference in
trip generation analysis: BFJ estimates a higher AM Peak trip generation but a lower PM peak generation for lots 10-15.
Please let me know if you have any questions of and of course feel free to give me a ring.
Thanks,
Mark Freker

Hi Mark and Georges, I wanted to let you know that in discussion with the interim director of public works, we think it
prudent to seek approval for a full technical review by BFJ for this application. In particular we were struck by the
geometry of the driveways as it pertains to Two Brothers Drive and the proximity to the intersection of Kennedy
Drive. The Board will be reviewing at their meeting on 3/15, and I expect them to authorize a more comprehensive
review at that time.
If in your initial review you chose to make recommendations for what needs a more thorough review rather than trying
to touch on everything in the short time you have available, that would perfectly compatible with our planned
approach. Does that makes sense? Feel free to call. 802-846-4138 is my direct line.

Hi Mark,
This application will be reviewed by the Board at the March 15 DRB hearing.
Project Description
Final plat application #SD-22-05 of O’Brien Farm Road, LLC for the next phase of a previously approved master plan for
up to 490 dwelling units and non residential space as allowable in the zoning district. The phase consists of two (2) five
story multi-family residential buildings on Lots 13 and 15 with a total of 251 dwelling units, 1,219 sf of commercial space,
and associated site improvements, 255 Kennedy Drive.
Georges has reviewed the previous iterations of this traffic study, and this is hopefully simply an update, but if it needs
to be a more involved review please let us know! The associated roads are likely to be approved by the Board by the
date of this meeting (the hearing is closed but they’re still deliberating). Can you review by this Friday 3/4? As with the
other application I just sent, I’ll be publishing my report on Wednesday 3/9.
Sincerely,
Marla Keene, PE
