6) WESSEL. PRD, VAN SICKLEN ROAD
Bill Wessel is coming to the Corcunission - discuss a possible PRD
on approximately 50 acres off Van Sicklen Road. There are sever-
al issues on which the Commission needs to make a decision iii
terms of interpreting the Zoning Regulations - AgR District.
The first issue is whether Mr. Wessel's land qualifies as a PRD
or not. A minimum of 50 acres is needed. According to Mr.
Wessel, he has 50 acres, however, approximately 10 acres. are
located in Williston. The question is whether the 10 acres in
Williston can be counted in older to qualify the parcel. as a PRD.
If not., there are only 40 acres in South Burlington and, there-
fore, E. PRD is not allowed.
According to City Attorney, Steve Sti_tsel, there is no case law
that he is aware of that addresses this situation. Therefore, it
is basically up to the Planning Commission to set precedent. At
this point, Steve advises the Planning Commission not to include
Williston Ian(' in determining; whether there is enou-ph land tc:
qualify as a PRD. First, Section 6.502(b)(4) of the Zonin.
regulations references contiguous or non-contiguous lots within
the AgR District. The Williston ]and is not within the AgR
District.
Secondly, Steve is concerned that such a precedent may lead to
trouble in the future. For example, what if there is a situation
where a 50 acre parcel straddles the City line and 10 acres are
located in South Burlington and the remaining 40 acres are in
another town? Does this qualify as a PRD which could theoreti-
cally allow 100 units on 10 acres in South Burlington?
The second issue which needs to be addressed is in relation to
Section 19.152.(a) of the Zoning Regulations. This section de-
fines the lower end of a maximum density range. Specifically,
the ordinance says when determining developable area to subtract
areas of "excessive wetness." Mr. Wessel had a wetlands survey
done on his property which indicated a large portion of his
parcel to be covered with wetlands. However, much of the wet-
lands identified are not what we usually think of when we envi-
sion a wetland. Wetlands today can consist of wet pastures which
are classified more by plant type than their extent of wetness.

The Comn-ti si >:: is goring +o have to define tht tern 1 _ _v_
v,etness" so it may be applied to this project in order to
determine the appropriate density range. Clearly, the definition
should relate to suitability of supporting a structure. There
may be some sort of engineering or soils standards that may be
appropriate to apply.
8) !FACTORY QITLET, REVISED PARKING. SHELBURNE ROAD
Heathcote Associates is requesting approval for a minor change to
the front parking area to improve circulation. There is current-
ly a bottlenecking problem at the end of the entrance chute
caused by tight geometries. I have been to the site several
times in the past two weeks to observe the situation. I agree
there is a problem. I feel it could be resolved by increasing
the radii similar to what is shown on Sketch "A". This would,
however, result in the loss of two parking spaces. Other than
that, I feel the circulation is working fine. The circulation
could be somewhat further improved with additional direction
signs (i.e., exit. signs).
9) CITIZEN PARTICIPATION FORUMS

Dear Bill,
I am sending you, enclosed, the completed forms for the
wetland delineation of your property which Bruce Watson and
I performed on 30 June. These forms are required by the
Army Corps of Engineers to substantiate and document the
delineation. I am retaining copies of them for my files as
well.
The next step will be for you to have a survey
performed which will accurately map the wetland. The
locations of the transects, which were flagged, should be
mapped as well. I would appreciate it if you can send me a
copy of the completed survey.
As we discussed, it would be an excellent idea to
forward a copy of the survey map to Terry Boyle so he may
use it for conceptual planning.
Sincerely
W. D. Countryman

Landscaping: I could not determine required landscaping value
because the cost of construction was not indicated. The land-
scape plan proposes maple, Austrian Pine, juniper and crabapple.
The quantities were not indicated. The plan should also show the
proposed location of plantings which are the responsibility of
Green Tree Park, Inc. In addition to the landscaping, I strongly
recommend the construction of berms along Gregory Drive and
Shunpike Road. This huge expanse of pavement and parked cars
will have a dramatic visual impact. The proposed plantings of
Junipers and several Austrian pine will have no screening affect.
This is becoming an important entrance to South Burlington and we
should work to create a nice image.
Other: Contours on the drawing would be helpful. Additionally,
elevations of the building showing preconstruction grade, fin-
ished grade and building height should be submitted prior to
permit.
4) WESSEL, 50 UNIT PRD, VAN SICKLEN ROAD
Bill Wessel proposes to construct a.50 unit P.R.D. on a 48.7 acre
parcel on Van Sicklen Road. 7.3 acres of this 48.7 acre parcel
are in Williston. Mr. Wessel would also be using his 12.8 acre
parcel located 500 feet to the north in order to meet P.R.D. and
density requirements.
The property is zoned Agricultural and Rural Residential. This
district allows non-contiguous lots to be combined for develop-
ment as a P.R.D. if the Planning Commission determines that such
—mbination will enhance open space objectives.
The 48.7 acre parcel is bounded on the north and east by open
land, on the west by a horse stable and large lot residences. and
on the south by a single-family home and Van Sicklen Road. Muddy
Brook runs through the southeast corner of the parcel. The 12.8
acre parcel is bounded by open land to the south and east, sin-
gle-family residences to the north and Highland Terr?ce to the
west.
Density: Before allowable density can be determined, the
Planning Commission must make a decision on a couple of issues in
terms of interpreting the Zoning Regulations.
2
L
Memorandum
January 23,
January 19,
Page 3
- Planning
1990 agenda items
1990
The first issue is whether the 7.3 acres in the Town of Williston
can be used in determining allowable density. According to City
Attorney, Steve Stitzel, there is no case law that he is aware of
that addresses this situation. Therefore, it is basically up to
the Planning Commission to set precedent.
At this point., Steve advises the Planning Commission not to
include the Williston land in density calculation. He is con-
cerned that such a precedent may lead to trouble in the future.
For example, what if there is a situation where a 50 acre parcel
straddles the City line and 10 acres are located in South Burl-
ington. Does this mean 100 units could be built on the 10 acres
in South Burlington?
The second issue which needs to be addressed is in relation to
Section 19.152(a) of the Zoning Regulations. This section de-
fines the lower end of a maximum density range. Specifically,
the ordinance says when determining developable area to subtract
areas of "excessive wetness." Mr. Wessel had a wetlands survey
done on his property which indicated a large portion of his
parcel to be covered with wetlands. However, much of the wet-
lands iflentified are not what we usually think of when we
envision a wetland. Wetlands today can consist of wet pastures
which are classified more by plant type than their extent of
wetness.
The Commission is going to have to define the term "excessive
wetness" so it may be applied to this project in order to deter-
mine the appropriate density range. Clearly, the definition,
should rela�e to suitability of supporting a structure. I sug-
gest the applicant submit the wetlands study along with the
classification of the wetland types. The wetland types may
determine the degree of wetness.
In c,rder to get a rough idea of the allowable density, the fol-
lowing methodology calculates the maximum density range, assuming
the 7.3 acres in Williston are not counted and the wetlands
outside of the floodplain and CO zone are not considered exces-
sively wet areas:
- - high end
54.2 total acres x 2 units/acre = 108 units

January 19, 1990
Page 4
low end•
54.2 total acres - 7.2 acres floodplain/CO zone - 15%
for roadways x 2 = 80 units
-- rough maximum density range is 80 to 108 units. 52
units are proposed ii.iciuding the single-family home on
the 12.8 acre parcel.
Layout: The buildings would be clustered on the western portion
of the property, leaving a large area of open space along Muddy
Brook. This is consistent with the T.J. Boyle report.
It appears a couple of units would encroach into the Floodplain
district. These units must be moved out of the floodplain.
Access: Access to the development would be provided by a 60 foot
public r.o.w. and 30 foot wide road. Some of the individual
clusters would be served by 24 foot wide private drives while
some would access directly onto the public road.
A 60 foot wide r.o.w. is being reserved for future connection to
the lands to the north. This road would someday connect to
Dubois Drive. This is consistent with the T.T. Boyle report
(sketch A enclosed). A 60 foot r.o.w. should also be reserved
across the 12.8 acre lot.
Parking: The project requires 112 total parking spaces. 124
spaces are shown. Each unit will have a one car garage and a
long enough driveway to park a vehicle. Parking is sufficient.
Condominium rules should include a provision prohibiting the
conversion of garage space to living space.
Landscaping: A landscaping plan will be required for preliminary
plat review. There is an existing stand of 20 - 40 foot high
white pine behind the single-family home on Van Sicklen
(Kendall?). This stand would provide a screen of the development
from this home and a portion of Van Sicklen Road. I suggest that
this stand be plotted on the landscape plan and preserved as much
as possible.
OTHER: The plat should show both the 49 acre parcel and 12.8
acre parcel since both of these lots are needed to qualify as a
P.R.D. Also, some legal documents will need to be recorded which
indicates this.

is met if Gregory Dr. is considered the building front. Mrs.
Msaher felt it more aesthetically pleasing to have the green
space on the corner. Mr. Ferland noted that meeting the 70a
requirement would cost a row of parking. Mr. Weith advised
that waiving the 70o front yard green space required a
variance.
Mr.Weith also noted that the City Engineer has asked for a
retention basin in the s.w. corner which will require green
space. Mr. Craig asked if the building is sprinklered. Mr.
Ferland said it is. Mr. Craig said the siamese connection
must also be shown.
Ms. Pugh asked whether the Commission can look at the traffic
impact on Kennedy Dr/Kimball Ave. Mr. Weith thought this
would be helpful. He noted the applicant will contribute to
the improvement fund for Kennedy/Williston Rd. Mr. Weith
said a traffic study can be required. He thought Act 250
had put a cap on traffic for the entire development and will
check where development is now in relation to that cap. He
will also check to see if a traffic study was done at sub-
division time.
With regard to landscaping, Mr. Weith recommended a berm
along Gregory Dr. and Shunpike Rd. He would like it to go
all the way to the corner with possible staggered elevations.
Mr. Ferland said the building will be 35 ft. high. Mr. Craig
asked for all contours, preconstruction grade, etc.
Mrs. Maher moved to continue the heari
with the understanding that it will be

Mr.Austin stepped down during this discussion due to a pos-

Mr. Wessell located the property which he owns. He said it

crossed by Muddy Brook. The Wessell's own home is on the

Noting that the Wessels want to combine 2 non-contiguous
parcels to achieve a minimum 50 acre lot, Mrs. Maher asked
how this can be done. Mr. Weith noted this can be done if
the Commission feels there can be a gain in open space be-

cause of the combined lots. Mrs. Maher also noted the
applicant had proposed using acreage in Williston to achieve
50 acres. Mr. Wessell noted they no longer are asking to do
SO. Mr. Craig questioned the wetlands issue for density
calculation. Mr. Wessell said all land is buildable. Even
leaving out the lands designation in the federal and state
wetlands study,they have enough land to build on. Mrs. Maher
noted that units 10, 11, 12 have been cited by the City
Engineer as being in the flood plain area. Mr. Wessell said
these can be moved.
A poll of Commission members showed that all except Mr.
Belter were not convinced that the combination of the 2 non-
contiguous lots was advisable. Mr. Belter didn't feel
strongly either way.
Mr. Mikell said he had been in the area 30 years and
recollected that the Wessell home property and the property
to be developed were once owned by one person. He thought
the long, narrow lot was created as a way to avoid Act 250
review and also for zoning purposes. If that's so, he felt
it wrong to make use of them for development if they were set
aside for other purposes. He also felt this is a particu-
larly sensitive area ecologically and should be looked at
very carefully.
Mr. Schaal said he was concerned about a possible road con-
necting the 2 non-contiguous parcels. Mr.Wessell said it is
a future right of way, not a road. Mr. Schaal felt if the
piece is undevelopable, there should be no future need for a
road.
Mr. Cole said his main concern was preserving the character
of a rural area and didn't feel joining the 2 pieces would do
that. Ms. Watson noted she used to be able to walk on Van
Sicklen and can't do that now.
Mr. Allen suggested joint review of the plan with Williston
as the density on the adjacent property in Williston is much
less than proposed here. He also noted the traffic problem
on Van Sicklen Rd. and said this development would make it
unbearable. Mr. Costello added that the impact on the bridge
would also be severe.
A poll of members showed that only Mr. Belter would look
favorably on the proposed combination of non-contiguous lots.
Mrs. Maher reminded the applicant that when one invests in a
piece of land one knows how it is zoned. It's a gamble to
think that zoning can be changed. She didn't feel the Com-
PLANNING COMMISSION

mission had to bend over backwards because of Mr. Wessell's
problem. Mr. Craig added that he would also look unfavorably
on the density and on the number of private roads. All
members were concerned about the ability of Van Sicklen Rd.
to handle more traffic.
5. Sketch plan application of Homer & Jackie Dubois to con-
vert 3 15,000 sg. ft. open space lots to single—family lots,
Butler Farm Development, Hinesburg Rd
Mr. Hart noted the subdivision was approved 4 years ago.
The approval was for 145 units plus the 2 existing. Four
lots were approved as open space to be deeded to the City.
Then Act 250 reduced the approval to 50 units in Phase I and
41 additional in Phase II. They are now going back to Act
250 to discuss options for mitigation of the ag soils issue
by a contribution to the Housing & Conservation Trust Fund.
Mrs. Maher asked how the developer got 53 building permits
with only one ingress/egress. Mr. Weith advised that the
Zoning Administrator will not issue further building permits
until there is another access. Mr. Cobb advised that Act 250
won't allow them to build the second access. The question
arose as to whether the acess through Oak Creek would serve
as a second access. Mrs. Maher and Mr. Craig felt it would
have to be reviewed by the Commission for adequacy.
Mrs. Maher felt it was premature to discuss the open space
lots before the applicant has been back to Act 250. If open
space is given up here, it should be replaced elsewhere. Mr.
Craig agreed. Mr. Cobb said he is concerned the city is not
mowing the open space lots and they are growing to pucker -
bush. Mr. Burgess said this should not be an excuse to de-
velop the lots.
A poll of members showed that all favored waiting before
making a decision.
Other Business
Mr. Weith advised that the City Attorney suggested an
Executive Session to discuss the Lash litigation.
Executive Session
Mr. Craig moved the Commission adjourn and reconvene in
Executive Session for the sole purpose of discussing pending
litigation and to take no other action but to adjourn Mrs
Maher seconded. Motion Passed unanimously.

Mr. Toe Weith, City Planner
City of South Burlington
575 Dorset Street
South Burlington, Vermont 05403
Dear Mr. Weith:
In accordance with Section 8.2 of the Vermont Wetlands
Rules, I am forwarding information on the Wessel Subdivision
to municipal planners of the communities where the project
is located. This project consists of a 20-lot single family
subdivision on 14.1 acres (see attached map), with lots
varying from 0.38 to 0.79 acres. Total road length will be
2000 linear feet on 2.89 acres, and sewage disposal will be
municipal.
Work to be accomplished in wetland areas includes the
construction of approximately 400 feet of road, 30 feet
wide (in 5 separate areas), comprising about 0.28 acres.
Work proposed in wetland buffer zones includes construction
of roads and houses. All work in wetlands is proposed for
Class III wetlands contiguous to Class II wetlands; none is
proposed within any Class II wetlands.
Further information is contained in the application for
Conditional Use Determination which has been filed with the
Vermont Wetlands Office, and available at the offices of the
South Burlington City Clerk and at the Chittenden County
Regional Planning Commission office. If you have any
questions, please feel free to contact this office.
Sincerely yours,
William D. Coun ryman

3) LOT #1 GREEN TREE PARK, SHUNPIKE ROAD
1. The westerly part. of this lot drains toward the intersection
of Shunpike Road. A retention basin for that area must be pro-
vided.
2. The City has a snow storage easement along the east -west leg
of Shunpike Road. That area should remain grass.
4) WESSELL SUBDIVISION. VAN SICKLEN ROAD
1. At least twice in recent years, the City has closed Van
Sicklen Road because of Muddy Brook flooding. Units 10, 11 & 12
may be in that flood prone area. They may also be in the conser-
vation zone. They should be placed on the opposite side of the
street.
2. The ledge outcrop adjacent to the proposed street intersec-
tion should be removed to improve sight distance.

South Burlington, Vermont 05403
Dear Mr. Weith:
In accordance with Section 8.2 of the Vermont Wetlands
Rules, I am forwarding information on the Wessel Subdivision
to municipal planners of the communities where the project
is located. This project consists of a 20-lot single family
subdivision on 14.1 acres (see attached map), with lots
varying from 0.38 to 0.79 acres. Total road length will be
2000 linear feet on 2.89 acres, and sewage disposal will be
municipal.
Work to be accomplished in wetland areas includes the
construction of approximately 400 feet of road, 30 feet
wide (in 5 separate areas), comprising about 0.28 acres.
Work proposed in wetland buffer zones includes construction
of roads and houses. All work in wetlands is proposed for
Class III wetlands contiguous to Class II wetlands; none is
proposed within any Class II wetlands.
Further information is contained in the application for
Conditional Use Determination which has been filed with the
Vermont Wetlands Office, and available at the offices of the
South Burlington City Clerk and at the Chittenden County
Regional Planning Commission office. If you have any
questions, please feel free to contact this office.
Sincerely yours,
William D. Countryman

MEMORANDUM
To: South Burlington Planning Commission
From : Joe Weith, City Planner
Re: September 18, 1990 agenda items
Date: September 14, 1990
William Wessel proposes to create a 20 lot single-family P.R.D.
on a portion of 62 acres formed by combining two non-contiguous
lots. One lot is 48.7 acres, with 7.3 acres in Williston. The
second lot owned by Mr. Wessel is a 12.8 acre parcel located 500
feet to the north.
This proposal is a revision of a previous sketch plan that called
for a 50 unit planned residential development (minutes enclosed).
The current plan has been scaled back to 20 single-family units.
The property is zoned Agricultural and Rural Residential . This
district allows non-contiguous lots to be combined for develop-
ment as a P.R.D. if the Planning Commission determines that such
combination will enhance open space objectives. The Commission
ruled that the previous plan did not enhance open space objec-
tives and therefore would not allow the non-contiguous lot to be
counted toward minimum lot size requirements.
The 48.7 acre parcel is bounded on the north and east by open
land, on the west by a horse stable and large lot residences, and
on the south by a single-family home and Van Sicklen Road, Muddy
Brook runs through the southeast corner of the parcel. The 12.8
acre parcel is bounded by open land to the south and east, sin-
gle-family residences to the north and Highland Terrace to the
west.
Dgnpityj Before allowable density can be determined, the Plan-
ning Commission must make a decision on a couple of issues in
terms of interpreting Zoning Regulations.
The first issue is whether the 7.3 acres in the Town of Williston
can be used in determining allowable density. According to City
Attorney Steve Stitzel there is no case law that he is aware of
that addresses this situation. Therefore, it is basically up to
the Planning Commission to set precedent.
1
'Ar
�
Y
At this point, Steve advised the Planning Commission not to
include the Williston land in density calculations. He is con-
cerned that such a precedent may lead to trouble in the future.
For example, what if there is a situation where a 50 acre parcel
straddles the City line and 10 acres are located in South Burl-
ington. Does this mean 200 units could be built on the 10 acres
in South Burlington
The second issue which needs to be addressed is in relation to
Section 19.152(a) of the Zoning Regulations. This section de-
fines the lower end of a maximum density range. Specifically,
the ordinance says when determining developable area to subtract
areas of "excessive wetness." Mr. Wessel had a wetlands survey
done on his property which indicated a large portion of his
parcel to be covered with wetlands. However, much of the wet-
lands identified are not what we usually think of when we envi-
sion a wetland. Wetlands today can consist of wet pastures
which are classified more by plant type than their extent of
wetness.
The Commission is going to have to define the term "excessive
wetness" so it may be applied to this project in order to deter-
mine the appropriate density range. Clearly, the definition
should relate to suitability of supporting a structure. I sug-
gest the applicant submit the wetlands study along with the
classifications of the wetland types. The wetland types may
determine the degree of wetness.
In order to get a Egggh idea of the allowable density, the fol-
lowing methodology calculates the maximum density range, assuming
the 7.3 acres in Williston are not counted and the wetlands
outside of the floodplain and CO zone are not considered exces-
sively wet areas:
hiO and.!.,
54.2 total acres x 2 units/acre - 108 units
54.2 total acres - 7.2 acres floodplain/CO zone - 15% for
roadways x 2 = 80 acres
rough maximum density range is 80 to 108 units. 20 units
are proposed.
Access to the development would be provided
by a 60 foot r.o.w. and 30 foot wide road. Three of the four
clusters of houses will be served by 24 foot wide private drives.
Houses 1, 2 and 3 will access directly on to the public road.
A 60 foot wide r.o.w. is being reserved for future connection to
the lands to the north. This road would someday connect to
Dubois Drive (see context map). This is consistent with the T.J.
Boyle report. A 60 foot r.o.w. should also be reserved across
the 12.8 acre lot.
2
^
�
� I like the concept of serving the housing clusters by cul-de-sacs
off the main road. This road could someday become a collector
street when connected with Dubois Drive. Therefore, it is bene-
ficial not to front these houses directly onto the main street.
The City's Public/Private Roadway policy requires these cul-de-
sacs to be public since they serve more than 3 single-family
homes.
Qyautl The houses are clustered onto upland areas towards the
southwest portion of the 48.7 acre section. This grouping leaves
the north and eastern portions of the tract open. Lots 17 - 20
encroach into the floodplain. No fill should be allowed in the
main portion of the floodplain.
A landscaping plan will be required for preliminary
plat review. There is an existing stand of 20-40 foot high white
pine behind the single-family home on Van Sicklen. This stand
would provide a screen of the development from this home and a
portion of Van Sicklen Road. I suggest that this stand be plot-
ted on the landscape plan and preserved as much as possible.
RogroatipnQ QQ1 Applicant has offered to dedicate some land
along Muddy Brook for recreational use. The applicant was not
specific as to how much land was involved. We suggest that the
area which lies easterly of the farm road to the brook be part of
this recreation area. Also, any area within 200 feet of the
brook that is not in the area described above be also included.
The Commission should consider in what form they would wish to
see this dedicated land take place, whether it could simply be an
easement for access or owned by the City to be developed as a
recreational area.
OtQ[j Information missing from sketch plan that is required to
be provided under Section 201:
Address of record owner.
Name of owners of record of contiguous properties.
___ Type of, location, and approximate size of existing or
or proposed utilities.
___ Location map.
The Commission needs to consider what standards it wants to apply
to the development with regards to minimum lot size, width,
setbacks, etc. The lots proposed range in size from .38 acres
to .79 acres. It is recommended that the applicant submit a list
of modifications which he is requesting.
