Home My WebLink AboutSD-24-15 - Supplemental - 0197 Autumn Hill Road (8)1 Marla Keene From:Paul Conner Sent:Thursday, July 25, 2024 1:43 PM To:Marla Keene Subject:RE: SD-24-15 197 Rear Autumn Hill Rd - technical review Hi Marla: High-level comments. - Applicant is proposing a Conservation PUD to include a ~1.9 acre development parcel including ~1 acre of land within the SEQ-NRT and ~0.9 acres in the SEQ-NRP District. Approximately 0.8 acres of the development parcel, located within the SEQ-NRT subdistrict, is proposed as the building envelope. These figures are estimated because the applicant has not provided a breakdown. - Pursuant to Section 15.C.02E(1), PUDs are prohibited in the SEQ-NRP District except for designation as Conservation land within the Conservation PUD. Furthermore, while limited subdivision is allowable within the SEQ-NRP district, per 9.12B(2), where the portion of a 15+ acre lot located in a non-NRP SEQ subdistrict is suƯicient to accommodate at least three dwelling units or lots, no subdivisions of land are permitted within the NRP District (Except as subdivision and Conveyance to the City of South Burlington or to a qualified land trust as open space per 9.12 A) - StaƯ recommends the Board review and provide guidance on whether portion of the property within the SEQ-NRT District is “Seved by municipal water & sewer” as defined in Act 47. Water and sewer lines presently serve Windswept Lane. Further, on August 5, 2024 the City Council is holding a public hearing on the establishment of water and sewer service districts to that will define “areas served” for Act 47 purposes. The portion of the subject parcel within the SEQ_NRT district is WITHIN both the water and sewer service area. - Assuming the portion of the subject parcel is within the water and sewer service area, that entire area (assuming no hazards) is granted an allowance of at least 5 dwelling units per acre under Act 47, and is granted the right to constrict a 4-plex of the same size lot as a single family home under H 687. - Based on the above, staƯ considers the inclusion of land within the SEQ-NRP district in the development lot is not allowable. - StaƯ, further, considers the carve-out to the Conservation PUD to be unnecessary to allow the SEQ-NRT portion of the parcel to be developed. As parcel area outside the SEQ-NRP totals less than 4 acres, the parcel is not required to be a PUD of any type. As noted above, the applicant may construct up to 5 dwellings per acre if it is an area served by water and sewer, and in doing so has no obligation to conserve land within the Conservation PUD. 2 Paul Conner, AICP Director of Planning & Zoning City of South Burlington 180 Market Street, South Burlington, VT 05401 (802) 846-4106 www.sbvt.gov Notice - Under Vermont’s Public Records Act, all e-mail, e-mail attachments as well as paper copies of documents received or prepared for use in matters concerning City business, concerning a City official or staff, or containing information relating to City business are likely to be regarded as public records which may be inspected by any person upon request, unless otherwise made confidential by law.

This email pertains to the REAR lot. The proposal is to subdivide the existing lot for the purpose of developing the smaller lot (for their kids, I guess?) and then trading the remaining lands to the City of South Burlington, though they haven’t “oƯicially” stated either of these things in this application. They also want to reconfigure the west end of Autumn Hill Road to be shorter (remove the wetland crossing) and use the easement to connect to Windswept Ln. I think there are gong to be some questions about access and how their proposal fits with the rules about private roads. The Board will review this application on Aug 6. Please provide comments by Friday July 26. Draft project description: Sketch plan application #SD-24-15 of Christopher & Janet Ruggerio to subdivide an existing 19.5 acre undeveloped lot into two lots of 17.6 acres (Lot 1) and 1.9 acres (Lot 2) and reconfigure an existing private road (Autumn Hill Road) by removing approximately 580 feet of length and connecting to an existing public road (Windswept Lane), 197 Rear Autumn Hill Rd Application Folder: SD-24-15_197 Rear Autumn Hill Rd_Ruggiero_SK_2024-08-06 Thanks, 3 Marla Keene, PE Development Review Planner City of South Burlington 180 Market Street South Burlington, VT 05403 (802) 846-4106 www.southburlingtonvt.gov Notice - Under Vermont’s Public Records Act, all e-mail, e-mail attachments as well as paper copies of documents received or prepared for use in matters concerning City business, concerning a City official or staff, or containing information relating to City business are likely to be regarded as public records which may be inspected by any person upon request, unless otherwise made confidential by law.
