HomeMy WebLinkAboutMinutes - Development Review Board - 12/02/2014 The South Burlington Development Review Board held a regular meeting on Tuesday, 2 December 2014, at 7:00 p.m., in the Conference Room, City Hall, 575 Dorset St. MEMBERS PRESENT: T. Barritt, Chair; B. Miller, M. Behr, D. Parsons, J. Smith, J. Wilking, B. Breslend ALSO PRESENT: R. Belair, Administrative Officer; L. Michaels, D. Bell, T. DiPietro, R. Weldy, S. Homsted, A. Klugo, D. Fenstemacher, M. Bettenhausen, D. White, D. Leban, L. Murphy, D. Burke, P. O’Brien, P. Heil, S. Ireland, R. Jeffers, C. Frank 1. Additions, deletions or changes in order of agenda items: No changes were made to the Agenda. 2. Comments & questions from the public not related to the Agenda: No issues were raised. 3. Announcements: Mr. Barritt introduced Brian Breslend, the new Board member. 4. Miscellaneous application #MS-14-10 of City of So. Burlington to: 1) reconstruct an existing stormwater detention basin, and 2) install an underground water quality unit, Midas Drive: Mr. DiPietro explained there is now a small stormwater pond in the same as the larger one in the proposed plan. It will provide detention and water will be filtered before it gets into the pond. The pond now services only a small area, and a lot of water doesn’t get treated before it goes into Potash Brook. This project will correct this. No issues were raised. Mr. Miller moved to close #MS-14-10. Mr. Wilking seconded. Motion passed unanimously. 5. Continued sketch plan application #SD-14-24 of O’Brien Farm Road, LLC, for a planned unit development to develop 24 acres with 245 dwelling units and 55,410 sq. ft. of commercial space in two buildings, 255 Kennedy Drive: The applicant reviewed changes made since the last presentation. In response to the discussion of open space, parks and trails, they have expanded the proposed park to 5 acres and moved the density from that area elsewhere on the site. The single family home area where there had been 2 cul-de-sacs now becomes a connected road. Mr. Michaels showed where there might be a short connecting road across the park area, so people wouldn’t have to drive all the way around to get to the other side. The “dog‐leg” from one of the building lots has been removed in response to a neighbor’s concerns. Mr. Homsted showed where the road might be reduced from 24 feet to 18 feet as it will be a one-way only road. The connection to Old Farm Road has been removed in response to staff comments. The applicants then showed the sight-lines from various locations on the property. The specifically showed existing and proposed conditions in “area C,” where there is the most concern because of a 5-story building. They noted that even though buildings are tall, they are not imposing because they are set into the hill. The parking levels are below grade for buildings in the sight-line. Mr. Behr asked how much of the treed buffer on Kennedy Drive will be maintained. Mr. Homsted said they are clearing only what will be needed for stormwater retention. They would leave a strip by the ponds. He showed the location of the stormwater areas. Mr. Michaels noted they are hoping to put a hotel in that area, and the owners will want it to be seen from Kennedy Drive. Some screening will, however, be maintained. Mr. Michaels stressed that the road system shown is a “place holder.” He then showed where backyards will be facing existing homes, in response to neighbors’ concerns. He also showed areas for single family homes and town homes. It was noted that there had been a concern with water intrusion into residents’ garages. Mr. Homsted said there is a steep slope that pushes water down there. The proposed road will intercept that water. The road will be curbed with piping to direct water to the detention pond. This should improve the current condition. Mr. Wilking asked how this will look to people coming from the direction of the Airport. Mr. Michaels showed where buildings will be in relation to the road from the Airport. Mr. Klugo felt it was a great project. With respect to area “C”, he said the rooftops become very important as residents will be looking over them. He suggested some kind of amenity like a green roof. The applicant noted that the Board had supported incursion into some Class 3 wetland (a ditch with cattails). The project will improve the function of that area. The applicant is requesting a 15-20% parking waiver based on on-street and shared parking. Members were OK with this as long as the applicant was comfortable that they have enough parking. Ms. Leban of the Bike/Ped Committee noted that pedestrian and bike paths are not just recreational and they want to be sure people can easily bike and walk to Old Farm Road and Kennedy Drive. Mr. Michaels said they have pedestrian and bike access to both streets. No other issues were raised. 6. Continued Preliminary Plat Application #SD-14-25 of Halvorsen Development to amend a previously approved planned unit development consisting of: 1) a 9,356 sq. ft. 275 seat standard restaurant, 2) a 71-room hotel (Comfort Suites), and 3) an 89 room hotel. The amendment consists of: 1) razing the 275 seat restaurant building, and 2) constructing 11,242 sq. ft. retail building, 1 Dorset Street: Ms. Bell showed the entrance area reduced to 18 feet. It will still accommodate fire engines. She also indicated where there will be signage. She showed the proposed striping where there will be “Do No Block Entrance” signage. There is also pedestrian access from the hotel to crosswalks/sidewalks leading to the CVS entrance. To meet the building/parking ration, they are proposing a structure facing Dorset Street with a sidewalk connection from Dorset Street under the structure. The building will have architectural shingles with a weathered wood pattern. There is also planned vegetation in front of the structure. Ms. Bell then showed the landscape plan and an area where plans would be above the eye level of a person driving by on Dorset Street. She specifically noted that Dorset Street is 30 inches below the site. An entrance has been located on the northeast and southeast corners of the CVS building. They have moved the sidewalk connection on Williston Road to facilitate people going to the entrance. Members were OK with the setback waivers and circulations pattern. Members did see an opportunity to make the second structure a lot more than what is proposed. They suggested possibly hanging flower baskets, solar panels, etc., to “spruce it up.” The applicant confirmed that the Williston Rd. entrance will be open at all business hours. Members were OK with the parking. Mr. Barritt asked that the back of the building have some glazing or other features so it doesn’t look like a “brick wall.” Mr. Klugo suggested brick recesses as well as windows. He also did not see how the second building benefits the community or the project. Mr. Barritt also noted that the CVS sign cannot face the Interstate. This is state law. Ms. Leban noted that the Williston Rd. /Dorset St. intersection is the most dangerous for bicyclists in the state. She said the applicant should show how the streets can be joined safely. Ms. Bell said they don’t propose to take the sidewalk connections away but they will not be making any changes to the state highway from what is there today. Mr. Barritt didn’t think that would be within the scope of the project. Mr. White said they are only doing work on the private site, not the public realm. He acknowledged there is a safety issue, but that is a public sector problem. No other issues were raised. Mr. Miller moved to close Preliminary Plat Application #SD-14-25. Mr. Parsons seconded. Motion passed unanimously. 7. Final Plat Application #SD-14-33 of South Village Communities, LLC, for approval of Phase II of 334 unit planned unit development. Phase II is to consist of the following: 1) 31 single family dwellings, 2) 13 2-family dwellings, 3) three unit multi-family dwelling, and 4) 39 multi-family dwelling units in four buildings, 1840 Spear Street: Mr. Burke said they have no issue with staff notes, and all “bugs” got worked out. He then reviewed the history of the project. He noted they are seeking approval for 60 units, with place-holders for the others. Mr. Burke noted the Public Works and Fire Departments are OK with them narrowing the street at the intersections. The multi-use path has been relocated and is a full width path. Missing sidewalk pieces have been added. There will be pedestrian scale LED lights and screening for utility cabinets. Phase I now has a second access, which removes that issue from this application. They have received their wetland permit from the state. Mr. Burke then reviewed staff notes as follows: #1 & #2 – Delineation between open space and wetlands and between developed and common lands.  This has been addressed with signage and the wetland buffer. There will be a 45‐foot split rail fence separating the areas and advising when someone is on “common land.” #3 – Fire Chief’s recommendations: Mr. Burke noted that the regulations don’t require sprinklering single family homes. This was not required in Phase I or in other projects, and they are not proposing them. He noted that hydrants meet standard spacing. Driveways are the same length as in Phase I. Mr. Belair read from the regulations. Mr. Burke noted the regulations are for homes on a road; he said these homes are on driveways. #4 – Public Works has requested the sidewalk on the east side of North Jefferson Rd. That is where it has been placed. #5 – Infrastructure phasing: they hope to do all infrastructure by spring. #6 – Alignment of rec path: The path will be fully paved and full width. It is located where it was in the Master Plan. They have proposed to revise an existing 20- foot storm easement to the city to make it a multi-use easement. The city could decide to build a rec path there. #7 – They have made all changes requested by Public Works and Public Works is OK with them. #8 – They did some follow‐up on the planting budget. $67,500 is required. They have put just over $32,000. They have 3 acres of woods to be preserved on the north side of the project. The Landworks project alone brings them over $83,000 without counting the woods. Mr. Belair said staff is fine with that. #9 – Lot width waiver – The Board was OK with this at preliminary approval. #10 – Garage setback waiver – The Board was OK with this. #11 – Mix of housing styles – Mr. Burke noted they have single family, carriage, multi‐family, etc. They agreed that the narrow front porches will be made full. There will also not be 2 houses of the same color next to each other. There is a request for rear or side-loaded garages on three corner duplexes One suggestion was to do a wrap-around porch on lot #25 to give a different feel. Lots 28 and 29 would be OK for side-loaded garages or wrap-around porches. Members asked for assurance that there won’t be any “unbroken” sides of buildings. Mr. White said they will all have features (e.g., windows). The applicant noted the delineation of the end of the backyards with trees as well as signage. Mr. Behr was comfortable with the signage. #12 – They will come up with a spread sheet for colors of houses. Mr. Belair was OK with this. Mr. Belair asked if the Board wants to see a plan with things that were discussed at this meeting. Members said they did, particularly the side-loaded garages, and suggested they could close the hearing at the next meeting and then deliberate after that meeting. Members were OK with not requiring sprinklering of the single family homes on driveways. Mr. Behr said he would like to see a break of some kind in the double driveways. Mr. Burke suggested a “bumpout” between the garage doors. Members were OK with that. Mr. Miller moved to continue Final Plat Application #SD-13-33 until 16 December 2014. Ms. Smith seconded. Motion passed unanimously. 8. Minutes of 18 November 2014: Mr. Miller moved to approve the Minutes of 18 November 2014 as written. Mr. Wilking seconded. Motion passed unanimously. 9. Other Business: Mr. Belair presented a request for a one-year extension on the Rye Associates project. Staff was OK with this. Mr. Miller moved to grant a one-year extension on# SD-14-15 of Rye Associates. Mr. Wilking seconded. Motion passed unanimously. Mr. Belair also presented a request for a 3-month extension on the South Pointe project. Staff was OK with this. Mr. Miller moved to approve a 3-month extension to #SD-14-14. Mr. Parsons seconded. Motion passed unanimously. As there was no further business to come before the Board, the meeting was adjourned by common consent at 10:20 p.m. , Clerk Published by ClerkBase ©2019 by Clerkbase. No Claim to Original Government Works. #MS-14-10 - 1 - CITY OF SOUTH BURLINGTON DEPARTMENT OF PLANNING AND ZONING CITY OF SOUTH BURLINGTON MIDAS DRIVE MISCELLANEOUS APPLICATION #MS-14-10 FINDINGS OF FACT AND DECISION Miscellaneous application #MS-14-10 of City of South Burlington to: 1) reconstruct an existing stormwater detention basin, and 2) install an underground water quality unit, Midas Drive.

The applicant has submitted a November 18, 2014 letter and revised plans to address some of the issues raised at the Board’s October 21st meeting. Staff comments are as follows: Park and Open Space In response to the concerns expressed, the applicant has expanded the size of the park on Lot 9 from 1.4 acres to 5 acres. The applicant makes this proposal on the condition that the underlying density of the proposed park land can be transferred to remaining lands for future development purposes. Staff sees no problem with this. As recommended by staff, the applicant proposes to continue to work with City staff on the particulars of park design and construction. The mini-park (Lot 26) serving the 16 single family homes has been reduced slightly from 0.25 acres to 0.23 acres. The applicant indicates that they did not as yet change the configuration of the lower stormwater pond to facilitate a clearer line of site. However, they indicate that “more detailed landscape plans and smaller scale drawings will help to better illustrate the goal of this area and pedestrian connectivity with it.” The applicant has also submitted an updated color rendering (see O’Brien Home Farm / Phase One Plan prepared by Wagner Hodgson Landscape Architecture) showing potential path locations. The applicant has also introduced the concept of a floating easement for the City to assure pedestrian connectivity of the proposed development to Old Farm Road and the barn area at the top of the hill. Staff appreciates the proposed park expansion and looks forward to continued work with the applicant on further defining the layout and features of parks and open space on the property. Roads The road serving the single family lots in the southern portion of the parcel has been redesigned to be a continuous loop. The new City street connection to Old Farm Road has been removed from the plan, pending a traffic analysis. Staff has no comment on these changes. Height Waivers The applicant has submitted three site section views to address the Board’s concern with the context of buildings in their surroundings and whether or not to grant the requested height waivers. Staff recommends that the Board review these section views closely and indicate if they wish the applicant to provide additional analyses at Preliminary Plat review. These analyses could include: -section views from Kennedy Drive and/or Kimball Avenue, -balloon tests or photo simulations or -a simple map using GIS elevation data to illustrate which parcels in the surrounding area would be able to see the proposed buildings for which height waivers are requested. Neighbor Concerns Neighbors have expressed concerns over vehicle traffic, pedestrian safety, light pollution and noise. The applicant has submitted a letter describing their outreach efforts to neighbors.

The amendment consists of; 1) razing the 275 seat restaurant building, and 2) constructing 11,242 sq. ft. retail building, 1 Dorset Street. COMMENTS Administrative Officer Ray Belair and Planner Temporary Assignment Dan Albrecht, referred to herein as Staff, have reviewed the plans submitted on September 5, 2014, and offer the following updated comments in light of the first discussion of the application on October 21, 2014 and materials submitted by the applicant since then. OVERALL The application before the Board differed substantially from the most recent sketch plan that the Board had reviewed with the applicant. Staff and the applicant discussed whether the applicant would like to return to sketch or proceed to preliminary plat, understanding that with substantial proposed changes, the applicant is proceeding at their own expense. The applicant agreed that they understood, and elected to proceed to this stage. The application before the Board seeks to replace the existing former Friendly’s building with a single- building pharmacy located at the corner of Williston Road and Dorset Street and two (2) 10’ X 20’ pergolas along Dorset Street to provide more building width (see note below concerning amendments to this proposal). The last sketch plan reviewed with the Board had included two smaller buildings, one along Williston Road to the corner of Dorset Street, and one along Dorset Street.

CITY OF SOUTH BURLINGTON 3 DEPARTMENT OF DEVELOPMENT REVIEW BOARD PLANNING & ZONING SD_14_25_5DorsetStreet_Halvorsen_CVS_prelim_Dec_2_mtg.doc Similarly, staff notes that the existing front yard coverage along Williston Road is 89% and therefore the proposed coverage of 43.4% is a major improvement. The Board had also previously indicated at a setback waiver would be appropriate as buildings along Dorset Street have generally been supported to be closer to the street to promote pedestrian-friendly activity. The same is true for Williston Road. See notes below, however, concerning operable entrances. Staff notes that the front yard lot coverage figures may change depending on the discussion below concerning building / parking lot placement. 1. The Board still needs to decide whether to grant the requested Front Setback waivers and the Front yard coverage waivers. SUBDIVISION CRITERIA Pursuant to Section 15.18 of the South Burlington Land Development Regulations, subdivisions shall comply with the following standards and conditions: Sufficient water supply and wastewater disposal capacity is available to meet the needs of the project. According to Section 15.13 of the South Burlington Land Development Regulations, the existing public water system shall be extended so as to provide the necessary quantity of water, at acceptable pressure. According to Section 15.13 of the South Burlington Land Development Regulations, the subdivider or developer shall connect to the public sewer system or provide a community wastewater system approved by the City and the State in any subdivision where off-lot wastewater is proposed. Given that the final type of building, its size and type of use has not yet been confirmed it would be premature to ask the Public Works Department to review the application. It is anticipated, however, that this proposed conversion from a restaurant to a retail / pharmacy use would not likely require additional water or wastewater for the PUD. Sufficient grading and erosion controls will be utilized during and after construction to prevent soil erosion and runoff from creating unhealthy or dangerous conditions on the subject property and adjacent properties. The proposed project shall adhere to standards for erosion control as set forth in Section 16.03 of the South Burlington Land Development Regulations. In addition, the grading plan shall meet the standards set forth in Section 16.04 of the South Burlington Land Development Regulations. The project incorporates access, circulation, and traffic management strategies sufficient to prevent unreasonable congestion of adjacent roads. 1. Access Prior to approval of the construction of the Homewood Suites hotel the curb cut was 70 feet wide. In approving the plan for the hotel the Board approved a 55 ft. wide entrance. Access to the subject lot is proposed to remain as a 55 ft. foot wide, shared entry and exit drive from Dorset Street. This entry drive would be shared by the existing hotel, the hotel under construction and the proposed retail building. The CITY OF SOUTH BURLINGTON 4 DEPARTMENT OF DEVELOPMENT REVIEW BOARD PLANNING & ZONING SD_14_25_5DorsetStreet_Halvorsen_CVS_prelim_Dec_2_mtg.doc entry and exit are separated by a 12 ft. wide curb reveal reduction. 2. Circulation & Traffic As previously noted, staff considers the change from a restaurant use to a retail use would not likely be an increase in p.m. peak hour trips. For the October 21st meeting, staff from Planning & Zoning and DPW expressed concerns that users of the retail building parking lot should be directed to exit the parking lot at its SW corner rather than be allowed to exit at its SE corner which would have the potential to create collisions with vehicles entering the property. Also at issue is the potential for back-ups on Dorset Street if property entry is blocked. Staff is pleased that the applicant has revised the circulation by reducing the width of the SW entry to the parking lot to 18 ft. as well as striping the entry to indicate it as an entry only location. The applicant has also indicated that signage will also be installed to direct the retail building users to exit at the SW corner. Staff is recommending that the curbing entering the parking area be adjusted slightly to create a “curved” entry that will provide a visual cue to drivers that this is intended as an entry-only, if such a design can accommodate fire and delivery trucks. 2. The Board should confirm its comfort with the revised circulation patterns on the property and whether additional measures should be undertaken by the applicant. The project’s design respects and will provide suitable protection to wetlands, streams, wildlife habitat as identified in the Open Space Strategy, and any unique natural features on the site. There are no wetlands or unique natural features on the site. The project is designed to be visually compatible with the planned development patterns in the area, as specified in the Comprehensive Plan and the purpose of the zoning district(s) in which it is located. Staff considers the proposed project to be compatible with the planned development patterns of the C1- R12 Zoning District. Staff supports the varied architecture and the presence of the building along Williston Road. Staff has two comments in this area: 1. The proposed pergola buildings are not, as shown, visually tied into the rest of the development. The applicant has indicated that they are revising plans to better integrate. (See also discussion under parking) 2. Staff is recommending that the applicant enhance the architectural features of the western and north-western facades of the building. Staff notes that in terms of priority areas, the eastern and north-eastern facades are more critical as they face the street corner, and the applicant has a strong architectural presence on these faces. Given the overall challenges of the site and the applicant’s agreement to install an operable door on Williston Road, this recommendation is only that- a recommendation for the benefit of the applicant. Staff does not recommend it be a requirement placed upon the applicant. 3. The Board should review the revised architecture for the proposed pergolas once presented by the applicant. Alternatively, the Board could address this at final plat if the applicant is not prepared for this item at this time. CITY OF SOUTH BURLINGTON 5 DEPARTMENT OF DEVELOPMENT REVIEW BOARD PLANNING & ZONING SD_14_25_5DorsetStreet_Halvorsen_CVS_prelim_Dec_2_mtg.doc Open space areas on the site have been located in such a way as to maximize opportunities for creating contiguous open spaces between adjoining parcels and/or stream buffer areas. This is among the densest and most urban areas in the City. Large areas of open space would be uncommon and unfitting. Still, there is a large swath of open land along the property’s boundary with the Interstate. No development is permitted in this overlay district. As noted for previous applications concerning this property, the applicant is also proposing to keep green space along its southern boundary which is shared with the University Mall. The layout of a subdivision or PUD has been reviewed by the Fire Chief or (designee) to ensure that adequate fire protection can be provided. Given that the final type of building, its size and type of use has not yet been confirmed it would be premature to ask the Fire Chief to review the application. The fire chief has preliminarily examined the proposal with the applicant, however, and given oral guidance. Roads, recreation paths, stormwater facilities, sidewalks, landscaping, utility lines and lighting have been designed in a manner that is compatible with the extension of such services and infrastructure to adjacent landowners. The Board has already discussed the issues, proposals, and possibilities for shared access with abutting properties. Roads, utilities, sidewalks, recreation paths, and lighting are designed in a manner that is consistent with City utility and roadway plans and maintenance standards. Previous plans and discussions of the property showed a need for a pedestrian connection to the mall property to the south. A connection is shown along the eastern edge of the parking area. The Board found this acceptable. Given that the final type of building, its size and type of use has not yet been confirmed it would be premature to ask the Public Works Department to review the application. Pursuant to Section 15.13(E) of the Land Development Regulations, any new utility lines, services, and service modifications shall be underground. The project is consistent with the goals and objectives of the Comprehensive Plan for the affected district(s). Staff considers the proposed use of this property to be in conformance with the South Burlington Comprehensive Plan. SITE PLAN REVIEW STANDARDS Pursuant to Section 14.03(A)(6) of the Land Development Regulations, any PUD shall require site plan approval. Section 14.06 establishes the following general review standards for all site plan applications: CITY OF SOUTH BURLINGTON 6 DEPARTMENT OF DEVELOPMENT REVIEW BOARD PLANNING & ZONING SD_14_25_5DorsetStreet_Halvorsen_CVS_prelim_Dec_2_mtg.doc Relationship of Proposed Structures to the Site (1) The site shall be planned to accomplish a desirable transition from structure to site, from structure to structure, and to provide for adequate planting, safe pedestrian movement, and adequate parking areas. Applicant has shown pedestrian connections between buildings and from the sidewalks to the building. For the October 21st meeting, staff noted that no operable entry was proposed along either sidewalk, however and strongly recommended the application be modified to include an operable entrance along one of these streets. Staff is pleased that the applicant has revised the application to include a second operable entrance at the northwest corner of the building facing Williston Road. It appears that this door will be two-way operable during all business hours. The Board should confirm this. 4. The Board should confirm with the applicant that the door facing Williston Road will be two-way operable during all business hours. Parking requirements total 233 spaces continue to be calculated as follows: -For the 71 room hotel with eight (8) employees, 79 spaces are required and are on site. -For the 89-unit extended stay hotel with sixteen (16) employees 97 spaces are required and are on site. -For the proposed 11,242 SF retail store, 57 spaces are required and are proposed. Four (4) parking spaces are marked as handicapped-accessible. The total proposed parking spaces are 233 which match the amount required. Note that the Board previously approved a 267 space parking plan in a prior proposal which included a restaurant instead of a pharmacy. Though the applicant has not requested a waiver from the parking requirements, staff would support such a waiver if the site layout were to be adjusted. Staff’s experience with similar uses indicates that a lower number of parking spaces per 1,000 feet would not result in a parking crunch. (2) Parking: (a) Parking shall be located to the rear or sides of buildings. Any side of a building facing a public street shall be considered a front side of a building for the purposes of this subsection. (b) The Development Review Board may approve parking between a public street and one or more buildings if the Board finds that one or more of the following criteria are met. The Board shall approve only the minimum necessary to overcome the conditions below. (i) The parking area is necessary to meet minimum requirements of the Americans with Disabilities Act; (ii) The parking area will serve a single or two-family home; (iii) The lot has unique site conditions such as a utility easement or unstable soils that allow for parking, but not a building, to be located adjacent to the public street; CITY OF SOUTH BURLINGTON 7 DEPARTMENT OF DEVELOPMENT REVIEW BOARD PLANNING & ZONING SD_14_25_5DorsetStreet_Halvorsen_CVS_prelim_Dec_2_mtg.doc (iv) The lot contains one or more existing buildings that are to be re-used and parking needs cannot be accommodated to the rear and sides of the existing building(s); or, (v) The principal use of the lot is for public recreation. (c) Where more than one building exists or is proposed on a lot, the total width of all parking areas located to the side of building(s) at the building line shall not exceed one half of the width of all building(s) located at the building line. Parking approved pursuant to 14.06(B)(2)(b) shall be exempt from this subsection. (d) For through lots, parking shall be located to the side of the building(s) or to the front of the building adjacent to the public street with the lowest average daily volume of traffic. Where a lot abuts an Interstate or its interchanges, parking shall be located to the side of the building(s) or to the front adjacent to the Interstate. Parking areas adjacent to the Interstate shall be screened with sufficient landscaping to screen the parking from view of the Interstate. Staff notes that the basic intent of the above section is to regulate and limit the amount of space dedicated to parking between buildings along a street. The applicant has revised the plan to add a 55’ x 10’ pergola along Dorset Street which, if deemed to be a “building”, increases the amount of building width in order to comply with the building width to parking area width ratio and to add shrub landscaping along the length of the parking area. The length of this structure is sufficient to meet the standard for building to parking width ratio. The landscaping is deciduous and is anticipated to reach a height of 4-6 feet at maturity. At presented in the renderings, this may or may not be sufficient to effectively screen the parking as a building would and should be discussed at the meeting. Importantly, in order for the pergola to meet the standards of the section, it will need to be considered a “building”. The renderings of the building in the packet were received just prior to the packet going out and so staff has not had a chance to look at them in detail. Generally, the architecture is consistent with the adjacent building’s. The pergola is also 10’ wide, which is likely sufficient space for human use as described in the definition of building. If the building and landscaping can be substantive enough to create an inviting environment and can create architectural integration with the property, staff would be able to support their installation as a means, together with the pedestrian circulation, presence of the building on Dorset and Williston Roads, and installation of an operable doorway on Williston Road, of meeting this standard. Staff has also discussed the possibility of reserving space in one or both pergolas to allow for future “wayfinding” or “byways” information to be contained within the pergolas, to provide greater interest to users. The applicant has indicated that they would be open to this. 5. The Board should review the applicant’s proposal for meeting this standard for parking. CITY OF SOUTH BURLINGTON 8 DEPARTMENT OF DEVELOPMENT REVIEW BOARD PLANNING & ZONING SD_14_25_5DorsetStreet_Halvorsen_CVS_prelim_Dec_2_mtg.doc Criterion (d) above also requires that there be sufficient landscaping to “screen the parking from view of the interstate”. Staff feels that this requirement is being met with this proposal. Without restricting the permissible limits of the applicable zoning district, the height and scale of each building shall be compatible with its site and existing or adjoining buildings. The height of the proposed building is two stories with the top floor consisting of a small mezzanine and 28 ft. high which is below the limit of 35 ft. for this zoning district. Newly installed utility services and service modifications necessitated by exterior alterations or building expansions shall, to the extent feasible, be underground. Pursuant to Section 15.13(E) of the Land Development Regulations, any new utility lines, services, and service modifications shall be underground. The DRB shall encourage the use of a combination of common materials and architectural characteristics, landscaping, buffers, screens and visual interruptions to create attractive transitions between buildings of different architectural styles. Proposed structures shall be related harmoniously to themselves, the terrain and to existing buildings and roads in the vicinity that have a visual relationship to the proposed structures. In addition to the above general review standards, site plan applications shall meet the following specific standards as set forth in Section 14.07 of the Land Development Regulations: The reservation of land may be required on any lot for provision of access to abutting properties whenever such access is deemed necessary to reduce curb cuts onto an arterial or collector street, to provide additional access for emergency or other purposes, or to improve general access and circulation in the area. The Board has already discussed the issues, proposals, and possibilities for shared access with abutting properties. Electric, telephone and other wire-served utility lines and service connections shall be underground. Any utility installations remaining above ground shall be located so as to have a harmonious relation to neighboring properties and to the site. Pursuant to Section 15.13(E) of the Land Development Regulations, any new utility lines, services, and service modifications shall be underground. All dumpsters and other facilities to handle solid waste, including compliance with any recycling or other requirements, shall be accessible, secure and properly screened with opaque fencing to ensure that trash and debris do not escape the enclosure(s). The plans show proposed dumpsters or other waste facilities, adequately screened. Landscaping CITY OF SOUTH BURLINGTON 9 DEPARTMENT OF DEVELOPMENT REVIEW BOARD PLANNING & ZONING SD_14_25_5DorsetStreet_Halvorsen_CVS_prelim_Dec_2_mtg.doc Pursuant to Section 13.06(A) of the Land Development Regulations, landscaping and screening shall be required for all uses subject to site plan and PUD review. Section 13.06(B) of the Land Development Regulations requires parking facilities to be curbed and landscaped with appropriate trees, shrubs, and other plants including ground covers. Pursuant to Section 13.06(B) (4) of the Land Development Regulations, snow storage areas must be shown on the plans. The plans show adequate snow storage areas for the subject property. Landscaping budget requirements are to be determined pursuant to Section 13.06(G) (2) of the SBLDR. The landscape plan and landscape budget shall be prepared by a landscape architect or professional landscape designer. In response to staff comments and discussions at the October 21st meeting, the applicant has submitted a revised landscaping plan and itemized budget totaling $25,965. Based on $1,779,020 in building costs, the plans shall include a minimum of $25,490 in new trees and shrubs. Staff considers this criterion to be met. The proposed parking areas contain more than twenty (20) parking spaces, and therefore should be landscaped in accordance with Section 13.06(B) of the Land Development Regulations. The site plan shows proposed landscaping on the interior of the proposed parking area. Lighting Pursuant to Appendix A.9 of the Land Development Regulations, luminaries shall not be placed more than 30’ above ground level and the maximum illumination at ground level shall not exceed an average of three (3) foot candles. Pursuant to Appendix A.10(b) of the Land Development Regulations, indirect glare produced by illumination at ground level shall not exceed 0.3 foot candles maximum, and an average of 0.1 foot candles average. For the October 21st meeting, staff noted that indirect glare at ground level shall not exceed 0.3 Fc maximum, and 0.1 Fc average and that the maximum standard was exceeded at several points just outside of the southeast edge of the parcel boundary just north of the proposed entrance drive The applicant has submitted a revised lighting plan showing existing foot candle values at the property. Existing light values due to intersection lighting currently exceeding the maximum standard and the average standard. The lighting plan indicates that the project’s luminaries shall not exceed existing levels. Staff considers this criterion to be met. INTERSTATE HIGHWAY OVERLAY DISTRICT A new dumpster enclosure is proposed within the Interstate Highway Overlay District (IHO). This type of use is not contemplated within this district in the regulations. As part of the previous sketch plan review, the Board felt that given the context of the proposed development with innovate features such as buildings along the streets, operable entrances, and hidden parking areas, and that the existing encroachment in the IHO District would be reduced with the project, CITY OF SOUTH BURLINGTON 10 DEPARTMENT OF DEVELOPMENT REVIEW BOARD PLANNING & ZONING SD_14_25_5DorsetStreet_Halvorsen_CVS_prelim_Dec_2_mtg.doc that this new dumpster enclosure would be acceptable if the landscaping requirement discussed above was being met. 6. The Board should confirm this interpretation of the IHO boundary line. Other The survey plat submitted only shows a portion of the property. The plat should be revised to show the entire property. RECOMMENDATION Staff recommends that the Development Review Board discuss the issues identified above and pose any questions of the applicant or other potentially interested parties before closing the hearing.

CAR – Clethra alnifolia ‘Ruby Spice’ is a dense upright, deciduous shrub. It has shiny, deep-green foliage with fragrant, long lasting deep pink, 2-5” long clusters of flowers, which bloom during much of the summer (July – August). The shrub reaches 5-6 ft. in height and 3-5 ft. in width at maturity, according to the Gardener Supply Center, Wholesale Catalog descriptions. The shrub can sometime sucker (send out additional shoots along the root system) making it broader than high over time with a dense thicket of upright stems. Below is an internet obtained image of the plant during the winter, once the deciduous leaves have been shed. SMP – Syringa meyeri ‘Palibin’ is a densely branched compact lilac shrub with small leaves and violet- purple flowers in late May. Clean foliage with a dense broadly round habit makes this shrub ideal as a border plant, foundation plant or specimen in the landscape. According to Landscape Plants of Vermont, UVM Extension, the plant will reach 4-6 ft. in height and 5-6 ft. width at maturity.

LANDSCAPING NARRATIVE: THE CONCEPT FOR THE LANDSCAPING PLAN AROUND THE RECONSTRUCTED BUILDING INCLUDES THE GENERATION OF A NUMBER LANDSCAPE ISLANDS ADJACENT TO THE BUILDING AND PARKING LOT WHERE LITTLE LANDSCAPING CURRENTLY EXISTS. PLANTS SPECIES ARE SELECTED TO PROVIDE BOTH A VISUAL BUFFER FOR THE PARKING AREA, TO ADD TO THE VISUAL INTEREST OF THE SITE AND COMPLIMENT THE BUILDING ARCHITECTURE. THE PROPOSED PLANTS INCLUDE A MIX OF DECIDUOUS AND EVERGREENS VEGETATION, INCLUDING DECIDUOUS SHADE TREES AND SHRUBS, EVERGREEN SHRUBS AND GROUNDCOVER, PERENNIAL PLANTS AND GRASSES. IN ADDITION TO THEIR SELECTION FOR VISUAL INTEREST, DIVERSITY AND SHADE, ONLY SALT TOLERANT PLANTS ARE BEING PROPOSED. THERE ARE A NUMBER OF TREES ADJACENT TO THE SITE, THAT ARE PRESENT ALONG THE HIGHWAY EXIT RAMP AND ALONG BOTH WILLISTON RD. AND DORSET ST., WHICH HAVE BEEN PLANTED AS PART OF RECENT ROAD IMPROVEMENTS. TREES BEING PLACED AT THE PERIMETER OF THE PARKING AREA ARE INTENDED TO COMPLEMENT THE EXISTING VEGETATION TO REMAIN. IN ADDITION, EMPHASIS HAS BEEN PLACED ON SCREENING BUILT ELEMENTS IN THE IHO OVERLAY DISTRICT FROM THE INTERSTATE. THE LANDSCAPING THAT IS OCCURRING AROUND THE EXISTING BUILDING WILL BE REMOVED WHEN THE BUILDING IS DEMOLISHED AND REPLACED WITH PLANTS SHOWN ON THE LANDSCAPING PLAN, INSTALLED IN A COHESIVE MANNER WITH SIZES AND QUANTITIES APPROPRIATE FOR THE SITE'S SCALE. 08/22/14 L-001LAST REVISED 03/15/20132013 TRUDELL CONSULTING ENGINEERS TREE PLANTING DETAIL 4" SAUCER RIM BACKFILL WITH EXCAVATED MATERIAL.

LANDSCAPING NARRATIVE: THE CONCEPT FOR THE LANDSCAPING PLAN AROUND THE RECONSTRUCTED BUILDING INCLUDES THE GENERATION OF A NUMBER LANDSCAPE ISLANDS ADJACENT TO THE BUILDING AND PARKING LOT WHERE LITTLE LANDSCAPING CURRENTLY EXISTS. PLANTS SPECIES ARE SELECTED TO PROVIDE BOTH A VISUAL BUFFER FOR THE PARKING AREA, TO ADD TO THE VISUAL INTEREST OF THE SITE AND COMPLIMENT THE BUILDING ARCHITECTURE. THE PROPOSED PLANTS INCLUDE A MIX OF DECIDUOUS AND EVERGREENS VEGETATION, INCLUDING DECIDUOUS SHADE TREES AND SHRUBS, EVERGREEN SHRUBS AND GROUNDCOVER, PERENNIAL PLANTS AND GRASSES. IN ADDITION TO THEIR SELECTION FOR VISUAL INTEREST, DIVERSITY AND SHADE, ONLY SALT TOLERANT PLANTS ARE BEING PROPOSED. THERE ARE A NUMBER OF TREES ADJACENT TO THE SITE, THAT ARE PRESENT ALONG THE HIGHWAY EXIT RAMP AND ALONG BOTH WILLISTON RD. AND DORSET ST., WHICH HAVE BEEN PLANTED AS PART OF RECENT ROAD IMPROVEMENTS. TREES BEING PLACED AT THE PERIMETER OF THE PARKING AREA ARE INTENDED TO COMPLEMENT THE EXISTING VEGETATION TO REMAIN. IN ADDITION, EMPHASIS HAS BEEN PLACED ON SCREENING BUILT ELEMENTS IN THE IHO OVERLAY DISTRICT FROM THE INTERSTATE. THE LANDSCAPING THAT IS OCCURRING AROUND THE EXISTING BUILDING WILL BE REMOVED WHEN THE BUILDING IS DEMOLISHED AND REPLACED WITH PLANTS SHOWN ON THE LANDSCAPING PLAN, INSTALLED IN A COHESIVE MANNER WITH SIZES AND QUANTITIES APPROPRIATE FOR THE SITE'S SCALE. 08/22/14 L-001LAST REVISED 03/15/20132013 TRUDELL CONSULTING ENGINEERS TREE PLANTING DETAIL 4" SAUCER RIM BACKFILL WITH EXCAVATED MATERIAL.

Phase II is to consist of the following: 1) 31 single family dwellings, 2) 13 two (2) family dwellings, 3) 1 three (3) unit multi-family dwelling, and 4) 39 multi-family dwelling units in four (4) buildings, 1840 Spear Street. The preliminary plat application (#SD-13-44) for this project was approved by the Board on March 10, 2014. COMMENTS Administrative Officer Ray Belair, Director of Planning & Zoning Paul Conner, and Planner, Temporary Assistant Dan Albrecht (“Staff”) have reviewed the plans submitted on October 28, 2014 and offer the following comments. Numbered items for the Board’s attention are in red. ZONING DISTRICT & DIMENSIONAL REQUIREMENTS The dimensional standards outlined in Table C-2 of the Land Development Regulations were altered though the Master Plan approval process for the subject property. The approved waivers are outlined in the decision and findings of fact for Master Plan #MP-05-02. The proposed project (Phase 2) meets all of the dimensional standards approved in the Master Plan. As discussed during the Master Plan approval, the applicant had asked that the preliminary and final plat reviews of each of the three phases be limited to single-family, two-family, and three-family dwelling units. Thus, any buildings with greater than three dwelling units, in addition to the school, will be reviewed under separate Site Plan reviews. The DRB approved this Master Plan approach. Therefore, the three (3) buildings with 10 dwelling units each and the one nine-unit building have been removed from these plans submitted for final plat approval, and are not part of this review, except for acknowledging the proposed locations as shown on the plans for these multi-unit buildings. MASTER PLAN Pursuant to Section 15.07 D (3), the following applies: Any application for amendment of the master plan, preliminary site plan or preliminary plat that deviates from the master plan in any one or more of the following respects, shall be considered a new application for the property and shall require sketch plan review as well as approval of an amended master plan: a) An increase in the total FAR or number of residential dwelling units for the property subject to the master plan; b) An increase in the total site coverage of the property subject to the master plan; c) A change in the location, layout, capacity or number of collector roadways on the property subject to the master plan; CITY OF SOUTH BURLINGTON 3 DEPARTMENT OF DEVELOPMENT REVIEW BOARD PLANNING & ZONING South Village Communities, Phase II SD-14-33 Final Plat 3 d) Land development proposed in any area previously identified as permanent open space in the approved master plan application; and/or e) A change that will result in an increase in the number of PM peak hour vehicle trip ends projected for total build-out of the property subject to the master plan. At the sketch plan level, it was identified that the roadway configuration had changed. However, the Board finds that the proposed “Marsh Road” and southern portion of “North Jefferson Road” are substantially similar to the Master Plan in function and location. The Master Plan did not specifically state which was a collector road and which was a local road. At the preliminary plat review, the Board found that two (2) items did not rise to the threshold of requiring Master Plan amendment/approval. These were the roadway configuration for the proposed “Marsh Road” and the southern portion of “North Jefferson Road” and a slight change in location but not size of designated open space. No changes in FAR, coverage, number of units, or PM Peak hour vehicle trip ends are proposed. Therefore, an amendment to the Master Plan is not required. PLANNED UNIT DEVELOPMENT STANDARDS Pursuant to Section 15.18 of the South Burlington Land Development Regulations, PUDs shall comply with the following standards and conditions: (A)(1) Sufficient water supply and wastewater disposal capacity is available to meet the needs of the project. According to Section 15.13(B)(1) of the South Burlington Land Development Regulations, the existing public utility system shall be extended to provide the necessary quantity of water, at an acceptable pressure, to the proposed dwelling units. According to Section 15.13 of the South Burlington Land Development Regulations, the subdivider or developer shall connect to the public sewer system or provide a community wastewater system approved by the City and the State in any subdivision where off-lot wastewater is proposed. The applicant has submitted copies of its applications to both the water department and the wastewater department. Staff considers this criterion to be met. (A)(2) Sufficient grading and erosion controls will be utilized during and after construction to prevent soil erosion and runoff from creating unhealthy or dangerous conditions on the subject property and adjacent properties. As part of the Findings of Fact & Decision for #SD-13-44, the Board set Condition #7 which stated that “(t)he proposed project shall adhere to the erosion control standards in Section 16.03 of the LDRs, and the grading plan shall meet the standards in Section 16.04 of the LDRs.” The applicant affirms this Condition and states that they are met on the project plans. Staff considers this criterion to be met. CITY OF SOUTH BURLINGTON 4 DEPARTMENT OF DEVELOPMENT REVIEW BOARD PLANNING & ZONING South Village Communities, Phase II SD-14-33 Final Plat 4 (A)(3) The project incorporates access, circulation, and traffic management strategies sufficient to prevent unreasonable congestion of adjacent roads. As part of the Findings of Fact & Decision for #SD-13-44, the Board found this criterion to be met. However, the Board also established Condition #9 that “(p)rior to the issuance of the zoning permit for the 50th unit within Phase Two, the “ North Jefferson” connection to Spear Street shall be constructed.” The applicant has agreed to this condition. Staff considers this criterion to be met and recommends it be included as a condition of any final plat approval. (A)(4) The project’s design respects and will provide suitable protection to wetlands, streams, wildlife habitat as identified in the Open Space Strategy, and any unique natural features on the site. As part of the Findings of Fact & Decision for #SD-13-44, the Board set Condition #11 which stated that “(p)rior to final plat approval, the applicant shall submit a copy of the state wetland permit for encroachment into the class II wetland and wetland buffers.” The applicant has submitted a copy of said permit which was approved on September 10, 2014. Staff considers that the applicant has satisfied this Condition and that this criterion is met. 9.06(B) (5) also requires that wetlands and buffers, streams, and natural communities be visually delineated in some way in order to prevent creep from private parcels into the wetland. As part of the Findings of Fact & Decision for #SD-13-44, the Board found this criterion to be met. However, the Board also established: * Condition #15 which stated that “(i) n order to protect the wetland and associated buffer areas, the following conditions are attached to this approval, and shall be included in homeowner documents for owners of the lots and dwelling units: no pesticide nor herbicide application within wetlands and buffer areas; no mowing in wetlands and/or their buffers; disturbance of wetland vegetation should be limited to remediation activities; and no planting non-native species in wetlands or their buffers. The applicant has agreed to this condition and submitted legal documents with the Preliminary Application. The applicant understands that the documents will be reviewed by the City Attorney and changes, if any will be required prior to recording. Staff considers this Criterion to be met. * Condition #16 which stated that “(f)urther delineation shall be provided at the boundaries of all development/open space areas as depicted by the dashed lines on the plans, for both single family and multi family housing, in order to protect the integrity of the wetland areas and associated buffers. This may include coniferous trees, split rail fence, or other similar method of delineation and these shall be shown on any plans submitted for final plat review. CITY OF SOUTH BURLINGTON 5 DEPARTMENT OF DEVELOPMENT REVIEW BOARD PLANNING & ZONING South Village Communities, Phase II SD-14-33 Final Plat 5 The applicant has submitted plans prepared by Landworks to address this Condition. The plans are thorough. Staff believes this likely meets the requirement, but recommends that the Board have the applicant describe the plans in greater detail at the Hearing. 1. The Board should have the applicant describe the plans to distinguish open space areas from wetland areas and associated buffers and should determine whether Condition #16 is met. * Condition #8-g which stated that “(t)he final plat plans shall be revised to provide additional, common delineation at the boundaries of all development/open space areas as depicted by the dashed lines on the plans, including for single and multi-family housing.” The applicant has submitted plans prepared by Landworks to address this Condition noting that split rail fencing with signs and/or stencils will be used to delineate the development / Open Space areas. The applicant also argues that tree cutting limits for lots 38-55 form an appropriate delineation. Staff considers the proposed plan to meet this Condition. 2. The Board should review these plans and determine if Condition #8-g regarding delineation between development and open space areas is met. * Condition #17 which stated that “(t)he final plat submittal shall include a plan for the management and maintenance of the dedicated open spaces created through the Master Plan. As with Phase 1, any issues for which the Board seeks technical review shall be conducted at the applicant’s expense. These documents shall be reviewed and approved by the City Attorney, and then recorded in the land records prior to issuance of a zoning permit for any aspect of Phase 2 as approved herein. As evidence meeting this Condition, the applicant has submitted the existing Land Management Plan that is recorded within the City Land Records which applies to the entire development. Staff considers this Criterion to be met. (A)(5) The project is designed to be visually compatible with the planned development patterns in the area, as specified in the Comprehensive Plan and the purpose of the zoning district(s) in which it is located. Pursuant to Section 9.01 of the Land Development Regulations, the Southeast Quadrant District (SEQ) is hereby formed in order to encourage open space preservation, scenic view and natural resource protection, wildlife habitat preservation, continued agricultural use, and well as planned residential use in the largely undeveloped area of the City known as the Southeast Quadrant. The open character and scenic views offered in this area have long been recognized as very special and unique resources in the City and worthy of protection. The location and clustering of buildings and lots in a manner that in the judgment of the Development Review Board will best preserve the open space character of this area shall be encouraged. As part of the Findings of Fact & Decision for #SD-13-44, the Board found this criterion to be met. (A)(6) Open space areas on the site have been located in such a way as to maximize opportunities for creating contiguous open spaces between adjoining parcels and/or stream buffer areas. CITY OF SOUTH BURLINGTON 6 DEPARTMENT OF DEVELOPMENT REVIEW BOARD PLANNING & ZONING South Village Communities, Phase II SD-14-33 Final Plat 6 As part of the Findings of Fact & Decision for #SD-13-44, the Board found this criterion to be met. (A)(7) The layout of a subdivision or PUD has been reviewed by the Fire Chief or (designee) to ensure that adequate fire protection can be provided. As part of the Findings of Fact & Decision for #SD-13-44 the Board set forth Condition #6 which required that “(t)he Fire Chief shall review the final plat plans..” As noted in the applicant’s submission the Assistant Fire Chief expressed concerns about fire apparatus being able to safely travel through current “pinched down” intersections on Phase 1 roads especially in heavy snow and/or street parking. The applicant indicates that they have revised their initial Phase 2 plans and proposed intersections to match Figure 9-6 of the LDRs. As copied below, The Fire Chief provided formal comments to staff on November 19, 2014 via email and the applicant’s engineer, David Burke, provided responses to the Chief’s comments to staff on November 20, 2014. (Note: the Fire Chief’s comments are in Brown; Applicant’s responses in Blue) November 19, 2014 Mr. Ray Belair, Planning and Zoning City of South Burlington 575 Dorset Street South Burlington, Vermont 05403 Re: Proposed Phase 2, South Village Dear Ray: We have reviewed the plans for this proposed development. We have the following concerns and/or recommendations. 1. All multifamily units will need fire protection plan review from the South Burlington Fire Marshal’s office to review for compliance with the Vermont Fire and Building Safety Codes. Applicant Comment: The Multifamily Units (60 – 99) require future Site Plan approval and we understand Fire Protection review will occur with the same. 2. The four (4) multi-family dwellings shall have sprinklers, fire alarms, and standpipes per the VFBSC. Applicant Comment: Understood, this will be proposed and reviewed upon future Site Plan applications. 3. Trees, fences and floral outcroppings should be placed so as not to interfere with the deployment of the aerial ladder, hoselines, portable ladders and other firefighting equipment. CITY OF SOUTH BURLINGTON 7 DEPARTMENT OF DEVELOPMENT REVIEW BOARD PLANNING & ZONING South Village Communities, Phase II SD-14-33 Final Plat 7 Applicant Comment: Agreed. 4. Provide 24 hour per day off-site (central station) monitoring of all fire alarm and fire protection systems. Applicant Comment: See comment on Item 1. above. 5. Provide emergency key boxes for the multi-family dwellings, location to be specified by SBFD. Applicant Comment: See comment on Item 1. above. 6. Building number 40, 41, and 60 should have NFPA 13 D residential sprinkler systems due to their distance from the public highway. Applicant Comment: These single family homes are on driveways and as such Sprinkler systems are not required nor proposed. We understand this item is a request, not a requirement. 7. No gas or charcoal grills on outside porches. Applicant Comment: Provided that this item is for future Units 60 – 99, which are subject to future Site Plan applications, we agree. Page -2 8. As we have done with the other phases of South Village, when the streets are laid out, we would like to perform some actual on-site testing to assure turning radii are acceptable and that emergency access is achievable. Applicant Comment: We have no issue with the Fire Department performing turning radii exercises following Construction. However, we delayed our design significantly regarding this very issue, as we are not in favor of the City standard “pinched down” intersections for emergency vehicle turning movements. Regardless, we were unable to convince the Fire Department of the same. This was after the Fire Department performed turning movement exercises of existing pinched down intersection within Phase 1 of South Village. As such, should the Fire Department have issues with the proposed standard intersections after-the-fact, we suggest the standard should be changed for future Projects and not be applied to this project, which preferred conventional (non pinched down) intersections. Should you need any further assistance on this project please feel free to contact me. Sincerely, Douglas S. Brent Douglas S. Brent Fire Chief CITY OF SOUTH BURLINGTON 8 DEPARTMENT OF DEVELOPMENT REVIEW BOARD PLANNING & ZONING South Village Communities, Phase II SD-14-33 Final Plat 8 Cc: Deputy Chief Terry Francis, Fire Marshal Applicant Comment: Thank you for your review. 3. The Board should discuss the Fire Chief’s recommendations with the applicant to assure clarity on the issues identified and also discuss appropriate conditions to be established. See also discussion of Condition #8-J below. (A)(8) Roads, recreation paths, stormwater facilities, sidewalks, landscaping, utility lines and lighting have been designed in a manner that is compatible with the extension of such services and infrastructure to adjacent landowners. (A)(9) Roads, utilities, sidewalks, recreation paths, and lighting are designed in a manner that is consistent with City utility and roadway plans and maintenance standards. Infrastructure details are submitted as part of the final plat application, including roadway profiles, recreation path details, and lighting cut sheets and point by point plan. As part of the Findings of Fact & Decision for #SD-13-44, the Board established several Conditions applicable to sections (A) (8) and (A) (9). Those conditions and the applicant’s response (as detailed in their October 24, 2014 letter) are as follows: Condition #8-a. The final plat plans shall be revised to show the proposed trail located along the southerly side of North Jefferson Road as phase 2 of the recreation path as depicted on the approved Master Plan and show how it connects with the Phase I recreation path. This is shown on plan sheets 1 – 4. Staff considers this condition to be met. Condition #8-b. The final plat plans shall be revised to show sidewalks along the two (2) smaller east- west road links. The appropriate plans have been revised accordingly. Staff considers this condition to be met. Condition #8-c. The final plat plans shall be revised to show a sidewalk or sidewalks along the north- south road as recommended by the Public Works Director. The applicant, after consultation with the Public Works Director, is seeking approval for a sidewalk along the eastern side of the road so as to match the sidewalk in Phase 1. Staff considers this condition to be met. 4. The Board should decide if it finds this proposed sidewalk location acceptable. Condition #8-f. The final plat plans shall show the phasing of construction of the public infrastructure, unless the entire infrastructure will be constructed all at once, with the landscaping budget (street trees) included for each phase. The applicant’s letter indicates that they are proposing that the infrastructure will be constructed in two (2) Phases (Phase 2A and Phase 2B). The letter points to Plan sheet 1. Staff was unable to find this detail. Staff recommends that the Board discuss phasing with the applicant for clarity. CITY OF SOUTH BURLINGTON 9 DEPARTMENT OF DEVELOPMENT REVIEW BOARD PLANNING & ZONING South Village Communities, Phase II SD-14-33 Final Plat 9 5. The Board should have the applicant confirm their proposed infrastructure phasing plan and determine appropriateness. Condition #8-h. The final plat plans shall be revised to show a recreation path or trail along the western side of the development. The applicant is proposing a full width recreation path in the central portion of the parcel and then heading west alongside Marsh Road to join Spear Street near the northwest corner of the parcel. The Bike-Ped Committee met on November 13, 2014 to review the application has indicated that their preference is to have a multi-use path oriented closer to Spear Street rather than adjacent to the new proposed streets and houses (see email from Matthew Boulanger to staff dated November 14, 2014.) 6. The Board should establish the alignment of the recreation path. Condition #8-j The final plat plans shall be revised to show street intersections in compliance with Figure 9-6 of the LDRs. The applicant indicates that the Phase 2 roadway intersections have been revised accordingly and that the DPW Director has reviewed and accepted the proposed layout. Staff considers this condition to be met. Public Works staff and the applicant discussed the standards (A) (8) and (A) (9) above via email which are extracted below.

The detail for Replacement of Existing Bituminous Pavement shall be changed to read 2 ½" of Type II base with 1 ½" Type III top or match existing, whichever is greater. The detail has been revised to call off 2.5" Type II Base and 1.5" Type III Top, or match existing, whichever is greater. Please refer to the detail on Plan Sheet 8; 2. I previously commented on this and the applicant acknowledged the comment, but the detail has CITY OF SOUTH BURLINGTON 10 DEPARTMENT OF DEVELOPMENT REVIEW BOARD PLANNING & ZONING South Village Communities, Phase II SD-14-33 Final Plat 10 not been added to the plan sheets. All pavement markings within future public ROWs shall be VTrans Spec 646.07(a) (or another material approved by DPW). Please refer to the "Intersection Detail" on Plan Sheet 8, which has been revised to reference all pavement markings shall be VTrans Spec 646.07(a) (or another material approved by DPW); 3. There is a gravel path shown between lots 10 and 11. I am not sure its purpose. This is the former location of a pump station, perhaps the path simply hasn't been removed from the plans. The 12' wide gravel access drive between units 10 & 11 is for access / maintenance purposes to the stormwater pond (specifically the forebay) behind Units 9/10. This is a requirement of the State Stormwater Permit review. The note on plan sheet S1 has been revised to state "12' wide gravel access drive to stormwater pond" (previously stated access to pump station and not corrected when the location of the pump station was revised); Tom's Comments: 1. This project is located in both the Munroe Brook and Bartlett Brook watersheds. These watersheds are listed as stormwater impaired by the State of Vermont Department of Environmental Conservation (DEC). Also, the project proposes to create greater than 1 acre of impervious area and disturb greater than 1 acre of land. It will therefore require a stormwater permit and construction permit from the Vermont DEC Stormwater Division. The applicant should acquire these permits before starting construction. Understood. The Stormwater Discharge Permit (#4096-INDS.1) is currently on Public Notice (until 12/17/14). The State Stormwater Division has provided a draft permit that will be issued shortly after the Public comment period closes (provided no comments are received). The Construction General Permit (#4096-9020.1) is expected to be issued very shortly (within days). 2. Portions of the project are located in the Stormwater Management Overlay (SMO) District and are therefore subject to the requirements of section 12.03 of the LDRs. The applicant should confirm that requirements in section12.03.C.1 are met and that peak runoff rates in the SMO district (i.e. the Bartlett Brook watershed) are not increased during the 1 year storm event. The modeling provided appears to indicate this, but it is difficult to confirm without a key and drainage area map for the watershed. The plans meet the requirements of Section 12.03.C.1 and all post-development routed peak runoff rates (1, 10, 25, 100-year storm events) are less than pre-development conditions as modeled with the previously provided HydroCAD computations. The drainage areas and flows can be found on Plan Sheets S1 & S2; 3. As designed, the stormwater pond is located directly behind and in close proximity to units 6 through 12. Please describe the precautions being taken to ensure resident safety. The stormwater pond slopes will be gentle (1 on 4), and as such State Stormwater requirements do not require fencing or safety benches; 4. Between units 10 and 11 is a "10' wide gravel access drive to pump station". There is no pump station in this location. The language should be revised to reference access to the stormwater pond. CITY OF SOUTH BURLINGTON 11 DEPARTMENT OF DEVELOPMENT REVIEW BOARD PLANNING & ZONING South Village Communities, Phase II SD-14-33 Final Plat 11 The 12' wide gravel access drive between units 10 & 11 is for access / maintenance purposes to the stormwater pond (specifically the forebay) behind Units 9/10. This is a requirement of the State Stormwater Permit review. The note on plan sheet S1 has been revised to state "12' wide gravel access drive to stormwater pond" (previously stated access to pump station and not corrected when the location of the pump station was revised); 5. The Vermont Stormwater Management Manual indicates that maintenance access should be 12' wide (section 2.7.1.F). Only 10' is provided. The plans should be updated to provide this additional width in order to facilitate equipment access for maintenance. Please note that this applies to maintenance access between units 4 and 5 and 10 and 11. Plan Sheet S1 has been revised to provide 12' wide access drives to the stormwater pond (between units 4 & 5 and 10 & 11); 6. Confirm that the plats (sheets P1 through P3) don't need to be updated to show the reconfigured stormwater detention area and associated easements. The Plats (P1-P3) are up to date and any stormwater easements encompass all of the stormwater detention areas and associated elements (access drives). The change to the 12' wide access drives still fall within the easement areas; 7. All "Stormwater Easement Area To City of South Burlington" labels should be updated to include the word proposed (e.g. "Proposed Stormwater Easement Area To City of South Burlington"). The Plats will be revised to incorporate "proposed" prior to filing of the mylar; 8. Confirm that the State wetland permit has been amended/approved to reflect any changes in the project since it was first issued. The applicant should acquire this permit prior to starting construction. The State wetland permit references the most up to date plans. The small revisions requested from City and State review have do not result in additional impacts to the wetlands and/or buffers; 9. The DRB should include a condition requiring the applicant to regularly maintain all stormwater treatment and conveyance infrastructure. Agreed. As part of the State Stormwater Discharge Permit, yearly inspections will be required (and corrective action taken if necessary). 10. Per section 12.03.F(1) of the City's Land Development Regulations, the final decision should require the submission of record drawings showing pipe invert elevations, drainage structure rim elevation, pipe material, final grading, etc. Understood; If there are any additional questions, please let me know. Thanks, Peter F. Heil, PE, CPESC | O'Leary-Burke Civil Associates, PLC CITY OF SOUTH BURLINGTON 12 DEPARTMENT OF DEVELOPMENT REVIEW BOARD PLANNING & ZONING South Village Communities, Phase II SD-14-33 Final Plat 12 On November 21, 2014, the DPW Director indicated to Staff via email that DPW had accepted the applicant’ responses and proposed plan revisions sent on November 20, 2014 7. Staff recommends that the Board require the applicant to comply with the recommendations of the Department of Public Works. Lighting is discussed under Section 9.08, SEQ Neighborhood Residential. Pursuant to Section 15.13(E) of the South Burlington Land Development Regulations, any new utility lines shall be underground. The applicant understands and accepts this requirement which was stipulated as Condition #3 in the Findings of Fact & Decision for #SD-13-44 (A)(10) The project is consistent with the goals and objectives of the Comprehensive Plan for the affected district(s). As part of the Findings of Fact & Decision for #SD-13-44, the Board found this criterion to be met. SITE PLAN REVIEW STANDARDS Pursuant to Section 14.03(A)(6) of the South Burlington Land Development Regulations, any PUD shall require site plan approval. Section 14.06 of the South Burlington Land Development Regulations establishes the following general review standards for all site plan applications: (A) Relationship of the proposed development to the City of South Burlington Comprehensive Plan. As part of the Findings of Fact & Decision for #SD-13-44, the Board found this criterion to be met. (B)(1) The site shall be planned to accomplish a desirable transition from structure to site, from structure to structure, and to provide for adequate planting, safe pedestrian movement, and adequate parking areas. As part of the Findings of Fact & Decision for #SD-13-44, the Board found this criterion to be met. These standards shall be evaluated with more specific level of review for each of the multi-family buildings as part of a separate application for site plan review. (B)(2) Parking: a. Parking shall be located to the rear or sides of buildings. Any side of a building facing a public street shall be considered a front side of a building for the purposes of this subsection. b. The Development Review Board may approve parking between a public street and one or more buildings if the Board finds that one or more of the following criteria are met. The Board shall approve only the minimum necessary to overcome the conditions below. c. … CITY OF SOUTH BURLINGTON 13 DEPARTMENT OF DEVELOPMENT REVIEW BOARD PLANNING & ZONING South Village Communities, Phase II SD-14-33 Final Plat 13 (iii) The parking area will serve a single or two-family home; Single and two-family homes in the proposed Phase II are not subject to this standard. Although 3-unit structures are not exempt from the above standard, the Board has previously found that with the Master Plan having granted a waiver for 3-unit buildings to be approved without site plan approval, this standard related to parking location requirements does apply here. The 4+ unit buildings will be reviewed separately if and when applications are submitted. (B)(3) Without restricting the permissible limits of the applicable zoning district, the height and scale of each building shall be compatible with its site and existing or adjoining buildings. As part of the Findings of Fact & Decision for #SD-13-44, the Board found that the homes proposed here satisfy the standards within the Land Development Regulations, and that the elevations for the multi-family buildings shall be reviewed as part of the site plan review for each multi-family building. (B)(4) Newly installed utility services and service modifications necessitated by exterior alterations or building expansions shall, to the extent feasible, be underground. Pursuant to Section 15.13(E) of the South Burlington Land Development Regulations, any new utility lines shall be underground. As part of the Findings of Fact & Decision for #SD-13-44, the Board found this criterion to be met. (C)(1) The Board shall encourage the use of a combination of common materials and architectural characteristics, landscaping, buffers, screens and visual interruptions to create attractive transitions between buildings of different architectural styles. As part of the Findings of Fact & Decision for #SD-13-44, the Board found this criterion to be met. (C)(2) Proposed structures shall be related harmoniously to themselves, the terrain, and to existing buildings and roads in the vicinity that have a visual relationship to the proposed structures. As part of the Findings of Fact & Decision for #SD-13-44, the Board found this criterion to be met. Site plan applications shall meet the following specific standards as set forth in Section 14.07 of the South Burlington Land Development Regulations: (A) The reservation of land may be required on any lot for provision of access to abutting properties whenever such access is deemed necessary to reduce curb cuts onto an arterial of collector street, to provide additional access for emergency or other purposes, or to improve general access and circulation in the area. As part of the Findings of Fact & Decision for #SD-13-44, the Board found that no additional easements are needed for this project (Phase 2 of the Master Plan). (B) Electric, telephone and other wire-served utility lines and service connections shall be underground. CITY OF SOUTH BURLINGTON 14 DEPARTMENT OF DEVELOPMENT REVIEW BOARD PLANNING & ZONING South Village Communities, Phase II SD-14-33 Final Plat 14 Any utility installations remaining above ground shall be located so as to have a harmonious relation to neighboring properties and to the site. Pursuant to Section 15.13(E) of the South Burlington Land Development Regulations, any new utility lines shall be underground. As part of the Findings of Fact & Decision for #SD-13-44, the Board found this criterion to be met. (C) All dumpsters and other facilities to handle solid waste, including compliance with any recycling or other requirements, shall be accessible, secure and properly screened with opaque fencing to ensure that trash and debris do not escape the enclosure(s). No dumpsters are currently shown. Dumpsters and other facilities serving the proposed multi-family buildings will be addressed at their Site Plan review. (D) Landscaping and Screening Requirements Pursuant to Section 13.06(A) of the proposed Land Development Regulations, landscaping and screening shall be required for all uses subject to planned unit development review. The minimum landscape requirement for this project is determined by Table 13-9 of the South Burlington Land Development Regulations. The cost of the street trees are above and beyond this requirement. The applicant has provided detailed landscaping plans for street trees and plans as well for transformer cabinets and utility pedestals as well as an extensive hedgerow near the NW corner of the property. As noted above in the PUD discussion, the City Arborist was satisfied during Preliminary Review that his recommendations concerning the proposed street trees were incorporated. The applicant submitted a street tree planting plan, a typical planting plan for the transformer cabinets and the utility pedestals, and the planting schedule for the pollinator hedgerow. Missing is a budget for these planting schedules and the landscaping plan and budget for the single and 2-family building clusters. 8. The applicant should submit the missing budget for these planting schedules and the landscaping plan and budget for the single and 2-family building clusters. E911 Addresses As part of the Findings of Fact & Decision for #SD-13-44, the Board established Condition #17 that the “applicant shall submit E911 addresses for the proposed project, in conformance with the E911 addressing standards, with the final plat application.” The applicant has added E911 addresses to Plan Sheet #1 per E911 addressing standards. Staff considers this criterion to be met. SOUTHEAST QUADRANT DISTRICT This proposed subdivision is located in the southeast quadrant district. Therefore it is subject to the provisions of Section 9 of the SBLDR. CITY OF SOUTH BURLINGTON 15 DEPARTMENT OF DEVELOPMENT REVIEW BOARD PLANNING & ZONING South Village Communities, Phase II SD-14-33 Final Plat 15 9.06 Dimensional and Design Requirements Applicable to All Sub-Districts The following standards shall apply to development and improvements within the entire SEQ: A. Height. (1) The maximum height of any occupied structure in the SEQ-NRP, SEQ-NRT, or SEQ-NR sub-district shall not exceed forty-five feet (45’); the waiver provisions of Section 3.07(E) shall not apply to occupied structures in these sub-districts. (2) The maximum height of any occupied structure in the SEQ-VR or SEQ-VC sub-district shall not exceed fifty feet (50’); the waiver provisions of Section 3.07(E) shall not apply to occupied structures in these sub-districts. In addition, the standards set forth in C-2 – Dimensional Standards Applicable in All Districts shall apply. The most restrictive limitations shall apply at the time a zoning application is submitted. And shall apply to the single, two (2) and three (3) unit buildings. Note that for the multi-family (4+ unit) structures, section 3.07(C) & 9.05 (B) provide specific provisions for projects with Master Plan approval. At this time, no 4+ unit buildings are proposed. B. Open Space and Resource Protection. (1) Open space areas on the site shall be located in such a way as to maximize opportunities for creating usable, contiguous open spaces between adjoining parcels This standard is satisfied, as discussed above from master plan approval. (2) Building lots, streets and other structures shall be located in a manner consistent with the Regulating Plan for the applicable sub-district allowing carefully planned development at the average densities provided in this bylaw. As part of the Findings of Fact & Decision for #SD-13-44 the Board found this criterion satisfied with respect to the block length below. The average density remains below that which is permitted in the sub- district. (3) A plan for the proposed open spaces and/or natural areas and their ongoing management shall be established by the applicant. As part of the Findings of Fact & Decision for #SD-13-44, the Board set forth Condition #14 which stated that “(l)egal documents shall be worked out prior to final plat approval and recorded prior to issuance of a zoning permit to reflect any portion of the subject area not addressed in the Master Plan or Phase I approval. The applicant has submitted the proposed legal documents as part of the preliminary plat. These will be reviewed by the City Attorney.” The applicant’s letter notes that these documents are the same as the Phase I documents that were previously approved. The applicant has also submitted language regarding the Phase II project that will be incorporated into any sub-association governing documents. Staff considers the applicant to have complied with the Condition and to have met this criterion. CITY OF SOUTH BURLINGTON 16 DEPARTMENT OF DEVELOPMENT REVIEW BOARD PLANNING & ZONING South Village Communities, Phase II SD-14-33 Final Plat 16 (4) Sufficient grading and erosion controls shall be employed during construction and after construction to prevent soil erosion and runoff from creating unhealthy or dangerous conditions on the subject property and adjacent properties. In making this finding, the Development Review Board may rely on evidence that the project will be covered under the General Permit for Construction issued by the Vermont Department of Environmental Conservation. As part of the Findings of Fact & Decision for #SD-13-44, the Board set forth Condition #7 which stated that “(t)he proposed project shall adhere to the erosion control standards in Section 16.03 of the LDRs, and the grading plan shall meet the standards in Section 16.04 of the LDRs.” The applicant affirms this Condition and states that they are met on the project plans. Staff considers this criterion to be met. (5) Sufficient suitable landscaping and fencing shall be provided to protect wetland, stream, or primary or natural community areas and buffers in a manner that is aesthetically compatible with the surrounding landscape. Chain link fencing other than for agricultural purposes shall be prohibited within PUDs; the use of split rail or other fencing made of natural materials is encouraged. As noted during Preliminary, there are small encroachments into a Class II wetland buffer and what appears to be an isolated class III wetland on the site. See the discussion above in A (4) of the PUD compliance analysis. Staff considers this criterion to be met. C. Agriculture. The conservation of existing agricultural production values is encouraged through development planning that supports agricultural uses (including but not limited to development plans that create contiguous areas of agricultural use), provides buffer areas between existing agricultural operations and new development, roads, and infrastructure, or creates new opportunities for agricultural use (on any soil group) such as but not limited to community-supported agriculture. This standard is satisfied from master plan approval. D. Public Services and Facilities. In the absence of a specific finding by the Development Review Board that an alternative location and/or provision is approved for a specific development, the location of buildings, lots, streets and utilities shall conform with the location of planned public facilities as depicted on the Official Map, including but not limited to recreation paths, streets, park land, schools, and sewer and water facilities. Staff considers the proposal to comply with the Official Map, which proposes a road and a recreation path or trail connection in the vicinity of those proposed on the Phase 2 plan. (2) Recreation paths, storm water facilities, sidewalks, landscaping, utility lines, and lighting shall be designed in a manner that is compatible with the extension of such services and infrastructure to adjacent properties. (3) Recreation paths, utilities, sidewalks, and lighting shall be designed in a manner that is consistent with City utility plans and maintenance standards, absent a specific agreement with the applicant CITY OF SOUTH BURLINGTON 17 DEPARTMENT OF DEVELOPMENT REVIEW BOARD PLANNING & ZONING South Village Communities, Phase II SD-14-33 Final Plat 17 related to maintenance that has been approved by the City Council. See the staff comments and recommended items for Board review under PUD standards for a discussion of recreation paths and sidewalks. (4) The plan shall be reviewed by the Fire Chief or his designee to insure that adequate fire protection can be provided, with the standards for evaluation including, but not limited to, minimum distance between structures, street width, vehicular access from two directions where possible, looping of water lines, water flow and pressure, and number and location of hydrants. See above discussion under PUD standards. E. Circulation. The project shall incorporate access, circulation and traffic management strategies sufficient to prevent unsafe conditions on adjacent roads and sufficient to create connectivity for pedestrians, bicycles, vehicles, school transportation, and emergency service vehicles between neighborhoods. In making this finding the Development Review Board may rely on the findings of a traffic study submitted by the applicant, and the findings of any technical review by City staff or consultants. (1) Roads shall be designed in a manner that is compatible with the extension of such services and infrastructure to adjacent properties. (2) Roads shall be designed in a manner that is consistent with City roadway plans and maintenance standards, absent a specific agreement with the applicant related to maintenance that has been approved by the City Council. (3) The provisions of Section 15.12(D)(4) related to connections between adjacent streets and neighborhoods shall apply. See discussion above in the PUD section of this report. D. Parks Design and Development. (1) General standards. The SEQ has an existing large community park, the Dorset Street Park Complex. Parks in the SEQ may be programmed as neighborhood parks or mini-parks as defined in the Comprehensive Plan. Mini parks in the SEQ should be a minimum of 10,000 square feet, with programming approved by the South Burlington Recreation Department. Such parks are to be located through the neighborhoods in order to provide a car-free destination for children and adults alike, and to enhance each neighborhood’s quality of life. They shall be knitted into the neighborhood fabric as a focal point in the neighborhood, to add vitality and allow for greater surveillance by surrounding homes, local streets and visitors. Each park should be accessible by vehicle, foot, and bicycle and there should be a park within a quarter-mile of every home. (2) Specific Standards. The following park development guidelines are applicable in the SEQ- NRT, SEQ-NR, SEQ-VR, and SEQ-VC districts: (a) Distribution and Amount of Parks: (i) A range of parks and open space should be distributed through the SEQ to meet a variety of needs including children’s play, passive enjoyment of the outdoors, and active recreation. CITY OF SOUTH BURLINGTON 18 DEPARTMENT OF DEVELOPMENT REVIEW BOARD PLANNING & ZONING South Village Communities, Phase II SD-14-33 Final Plat 18 (ii) Parks should serve as the focus for neighborhoods and be located at the heart of residential areas, served by public streets and fronted by development. (iii) Parks should be provided at a rate of 7.5 acres of developed parkland per 1,000 population per the South Burlington Capital Budget and Program. (iv) A neighborhood or mini park of 10,000 square feet or more should be provided within a one-quarter mile walk of every home not so served by an existing City park or other publicly-owned developed recreation area. (b) Dedication of Parks and Open Space: Parks and protected open space must be approved by City Council for public ownership or management, or maintained permanently by a homeowners’ association in a form acceptable to the City Attorney. (c) Design Guidelines (i) Parks should be fronted by homes and/or retail development in order to make them sociable, safe and attractive places. (ii) Parks should be located along prominent pedestrian and bicycle connections. (iii) To the extent feasible, single-loaded roads should be utilized adjacent to natural open spaces to define a clear transition between the private and public realm, and to reinforce dedicated open space as a natural resource and not extended yard areas. Several parcels of open space are proposed on the project with a substantial network of trails. In addition, as part of the Master Plan, a future public recreation field was approved near the intersection of Allen Road and Spear Street. The Board found this criterion was satisfied through the Master Plan. 9.08 SEQ-NR &NRT Sub-District; Specific Standards The SEQ-NRT sub-district has additional dimensional and design requirements, as enumerated in this Section. A. Street, Block and Lot Pattern (1) Development blocks. Development block lengths should range between 300 and 500 linear feet; see Figure 9-2 for example. If longer block lengths are unavoidable blocks 500 feet or longer must include mid-block public sidewalk or recreation path connections. (2) Interconnection of Streets. Average spacing between intersections shall be 300 to 500 feet. Dead end streets (e.g. culs de sac) are discouraged. Dead end streets may not exceed 200 feet in length. Street stubs are required at the end of dead end streets to allow for future street connections and/or bicycle and pedestrian connections to open space and future housing on adjoining parcels per section 15.12(D)(4). The section extending to Spear Street is shown as depicted on the Master Plan and consists entirely of open space / agricultural lands to the south, and a significant wooded area immediately north of the proposed single family homes. A trail as shown on the Master Plan and preliminary plat bisects this length. CITY OF SOUTH BURLINGTON 19 DEPARTMENT OF DEVELOPMENT REVIEW BOARD PLANNING & ZONING South Village Communities, Phase II SD-14-33 Final Plat 19 The section extending to Phase I is proposed as a single road with homes on either side. This differs from the Master Plan but includes the same – or possibly slightly less development area. To the east and west of this development area are open spaces / agricultural areas. A trail crossing is proposed at approximately the midpoint of this block. The proposed Phase 2 plans largely consist of blocks lengths of 300 to 500 feet. However, as part of the Findings of Fact & Decision for #SD-13-44, in Condition #10, the Board approved a waiver to the block length requirement for the following: a. The section of North Jefferson Road extending from Churchill Street to Spear Street which is nearly 1,000 feet in length. b. The section of North Jefferson Road extending south of Marsh Road which is nearly 900 feet in length. Staff considers this criterion to have been met. (3) Street Connection to Adjoining Parcels. Street stubs are required to be built to the property line and connected to adjacent parcels per section 15.12(D)(4) of these Regulations. Posting signs with a notice of intent to construct future streets is strongly encouraged. The only street stub proposed as part of this application is at the north end of Marsh Road. It is proposed to be constructed to the property line. (4) Lots shall maintain a minimum lot width to depth ratio of 1:2, with a ratio of 1:2.5 to 1:5 recommended. The proposed development includes both individual lots for buildings as well as PUD sections with shared lots. On average, the homes on the shared lots average a ratio of 1:1.5. Given the desires for common open space and significant wetland buffers, staff is comfortable with that ratio. The majority of single family home lots are requesting waivers from the requirement above. It appears as though only 3 of the 20 lots meet the full requirement. The majority of the remainder are near compliance, in the 1:1.5 to 1:2 range, with a few odd-shaped lots at corners and other places. In Condition #13 for its Findings of Fact & Decision for #SD-13-44, the Board found that the due to the Master Plan and conservation of open space lots on the property, a waiver of these strict ratios was deemed acceptable for Lots 40, 42, 47-49 and 54-55. The applicant has discovered that additional lots will need this waiver which include lots 39, 42-46 and 50-53. Staff’s review indicates that lots 41, 54, and 55 also do not comply. 9. The Board should decide whether to approve a waiver to the minimum lot width to depth ratio of 1:2 for Lots 39-47, 48a, 49a, and 50-55. B. Street, Sidewalk & Parking Standards (1) Street dimensions and cross sections. Neighborhood streets (collector and local) in the NR sub- district are intended to be low-speed streets for local use that discourage through movement and are safe for pedestrians and bicyclists. Dimensions for public collector and local streets shall be as set forth CITY OF SOUTH BURLINGTON 20 DEPARTMENT OF DEVELOPMENT REVIEW BOARD PLANNING & ZONING South Village Communities, Phase II SD-14-33 Final Plat 20 in Tables 9-1 and 9-2, and Figures 9-4 and 9-5 of the SBLDR. The Board has already commented on the roadway, sidewalk, and recreation path design. (2) Sidewalks. Sidewalks must be a minimum of five feet (5’) in width with an additional minimum five-foot planting strip (greenspace) separating the sidewalk from the street. Sidewalks are required on one side of the street, and must be connected in a pattern that promotes walkability throughout the development. The DRB may in its discretion require supplemental sidewalk segments to achieve this purpose. (3) Street Trees; see Section 9.08(B)(3) Street trees are required along all streets in a planting strip a minimum of five feet wide. Street tress shall be large, deciduous shade trees with species satisfactory to the City Arborist. Street trees to be planted must have a minimum caliper size of 2.5 to 3 inches DBH, and shall be planted no greater than thirty feet (30’) on center. As part of the Findings of Fact & Decision for #SD-13-44, the Board set forth Condition #8 – i which stated that the “final plat plans shall be revised to incorporate the recommendations of the City Arborist contained in his memo of January 11, 2014.” The applicant indicates that they have incorporated these recommendations. In a November 19, 2014 email to Staff, the DPW indicated that the applicant’s submissions had addressed the City Arborist’s comments. Staff considers this criterion to be met. (4) On-street parking; see Section 9.08(B)(4). On street parking is appropriate in a small neighborhood. The roadway is of sufficient width and well- planned to accommodate such. (5) Intersection design. Intersections shall be designed to reduce pedestrian crossing distances and to slow traffic; see Figure 9-6 and Section 9.08(B)(5). See discussion of Condition #8-J on page 7. Staff considers this criterion to be met. (6) Street and sidewalk lighting. Pedestrian-scaled light fixtures (e.g., 12’ to 14’) shall be provided sufficient to ensure pedestrian safety traveling to and from public spaces. Overall illumination levels should be consistent with the lower-intensity development patterns and character of the SEQ, with lower, smoother levels of illumination (rather than hot-spots) and trespass minimized to the lowest level consistent with public safety. As part of the Findings of Fact & Decision for #SD-13-44, the Board established Condition #8-d which stated that “(t)he final plat plans shall be revised to propose pedestrian-scaled light fixtures (e.g., 12’ to 14’). The applicant has submitted Lighting Detail on plan sheet7 as well as cut-sheets of proposed luminaries that are 14’ high. Staff has asked for and the applicant has agreed to have these lights be LED. CITY OF SOUTH BURLINGTON 21 DEPARTMENT OF DEVELOPMENT REVIEW BOARD PLANNING & ZONING South Village Communities, Phase II SD-14-33 Final Plat 21 Staff considers that the applicant has satisfied this Condition and this criterion is met. C. Residential Design As part of the Findings of Fact & Decision for #SD-13-44, the Board established Condition #13 which noted that “(r)esidential design standards provided in Section 9.08 (C) of the Land Development Regulations shall be addressed at final plat review. The applicant has submitted revisions to the “footprint units” in its plans received on October 28, 2014 as well as a revised version of its October 24, 2014 letter received by Staff on November 19, 2014 to address the project’s compliance with these standards. (1) Building Orientation. Residential buildings must be oriented to the street. Primary entries for single family and multi-family buildings must face the street. Secondary building entries may open onto garages and/or parking areas. (Special design guidelines apply to arterial streets). All proposed buildings are oriented to the street. Staff considers this criterion to be met. (2) Building Façades. Building facades are encouraged to employ a theme and variation approach. Buildings should include common elements to appear unified, but façades should be varied from one building to the next to avoid monotony. Front porches, stoops, and balconies that create semi-private space and are oriented to the street are encouraged. See discussion below under Mix of Housing Styles. (3) Front Building Setbacks. In pedestrian districts, a close relationship between the building and the street is critical to the ambiance of the street environment. Buildings should be set back twenty-five feet (25’) from the back of sidewalk. As part of its Master Plan approval the front setback for both single family homes and multi-family units was reduced from 20 ft. to 10 ft. (4) Porches, stoops, and balconies may project up to eight feet (8’) into the front setbacks. Porch, stoop and balcony areas within the front setback shall not be enclosed or weatherized with glazing or other solid materials. As part of its Master Plan approval the front setback for both single family homes and multi-family units was reduced from 20 ft. to 10 ft. None of the porches, stoops or balconies project into this setback. Staff considers this criterion to be met. (5) Placement of Garages and Parking. See Section 9.08(C)(4) and Figure 9-7. The front building line of the garage must be set behind the front building line of the house by a minimum of eight feet. The applicant and staff have been discussing this item and the Mix of Housing Styles standard below. The applicant provided an initial proposal with the application, and a supplemental proposal in an email dated November 25, 2014. Staff feels that this criterion is largely met; see below under Mix of Housing CITY OF SOUTH BURLINGTON 22 DEPARTMENT OF DEVELOPMENT REVIEW BOARD PLANNING & ZONING South Village Communities, Phase II SD-14-33 Final Plat 22 Styles for further discussion. In a November 24, 2014 email the applicant requested a waiver to the 8 ft. garage setback for Lots 40, 41 and 60 arguing that “(w)e learned in construction on Phase 1, that with the limitation on lot size and garage orientation, that we need to locate the garage forward of the home to allow for safe egress (turn around-ability) in and out of the driveway. The 8' setback is pretty impossible with these specific lot designs. As was the case with Lot 58 in Phase 1, we'd like the flexibility to locate the garage where it makes the most sense. The very orientation of the lot precludes a 'snout house' from coming into being, but the language of the LDRs is too limiting for these lots construction feasibility. Staff supports this waiver for these three (3) lots with a condition that the garages would be side loaded. These lots were conceived of during the Master Plan phase, prior to existence of the current regulations. 10. The Board should determine whether to grant a waiver to the garage setback requirement for Lots 40, 41 and 60. (6) Mix of Housing Styles. A mix of housing styles (i.e. ranch, cape cod, colonial, etc.), sizes, and affordability is encouraged within neighborhoods and developments. These should be mixed within blocks, along the street and within neighborhoods rather than compartmentalized into sections of near-identical units. The applicant submitted a letter, dated October 24, 2014 but received by Staff on November 18, 2014, addresses the Residential Design, pursuant to Section 9.08(C) of the Regulations, including building orientation, building facades and front building setbacks, placement of garages and parking, and mix of housing types. It includes drawings which illustrate the general layout of the proposed units. In the letter, the applicant proposes a methodology for determining whether the mix of housing styles has been met. This letter was supplemented / replaced with an updated proposal on November 25, 2014. The applicant and staff are working to further refine these. Staff’s comments have focused on three aspects: a) Assuring that terms are clear within the proposed standards (e.g., that a “full front porch” has a minimum depth to it) b) Presenting façades that lessens the dominance of garage doors, particularly for duplex lots c) Assuring variability in house styles, particularly for the duplexes. Staff considers that the proposed conditions on the single family lots as well as the variability inherent in “Custom” home building will result in an adequate mix of styles for the twenty single family homes. However, staff considers the proposed duplexes and carriage style units to be essentially the same style. 11. The Board should discuss mix of house styles, garage setbacks, and façade standards with the applicant. The applicant has proposed conditions for the single family lots regarding building color, shingle color CITY OF SOUTH BURLINGTON 23 DEPARTMENT OF DEVELOPMENT REVIEW BOARD PLANNING & ZONING South Village Communities, Phase II SD-14-33 Final Plat 23 and design. The applicant has also proposed conditions for duplexes that sets parameters on colors for the buildings and for the shingles. 12. The Board should decide whether or not to establish such conditions for the single family lots and/or for the duplexes and if so, confirm that the applicant’s proposed methodology will allow the Administrative Officer to effectively determine compliance with these standards at time of final plat review. OTHER As part of the Findings of Fact & Decision for #SD-13-44, the Board established Condition #8-e, that “the final plat plans shall be revised to include all utility cabinets in compliance with Section 13.18 of the Land Development Regulations.” The applicant has detailed such locations on Plan Sheet #11 and the landscaping plans have been revised to provide screening details around all cabinets. Staff considers the applicant to have fulfilled this Condition and that this criterion to be met. Phasing The phasing of various components of the project are addressed in the Master Plan. Staff is recommending that the decision include a condition that zoning permits be obtained for all the units in common clusters A – D within five (5) years of approval with the option for requesting a one (1) year extension. Notice of Conditions There are “footprint” lots proposed around several of the units. For purposes of the Land Development Regulations, all footprint lots within a cluster will be considered one lot.

Condition 3 of their decision requires that a zoning permit be obtained within 6 months of the approval, which is dated June 18, 2014. Therefore, a zoning permit must be obtained by December 18, 2014. The closing on the land sale with the Unsworths is planned for mid-December. Although construction is planned in the near future, it will not be possible to complete the various other prerequisites and obtain the zoning permit prior to December 18th. We are requesting that the Development Review Board grant a 3 month extension for obtaining the zoning permit. We understand that you have received the final plans, mylar for recording, and Notice of Condition, satisfying the various other conditions requiring the submittal of information prior to applying for the zoning permit. Please present this request to the Development Review Board at their December 2nd meeting. Please advise if my attendance at the DRB hearing is necessary.
