Re: Findings of Fact, application of J. Robert McCarroll for
removal of an existing approximately 500 square foot structural
canopy and construction of a 192 square foot porch, 72 square foot
open portico and enclosure of 111 square feet of office area,
Anchorage Inn, 108 Dorset Street.
On the 14th of December, 1993 the South Burlington Planning
Commission approved the request of J. Robert McCarroll for site
plan review under Section 19.10 of the South Burlington Zoning
Regulations based on the following findings:
1. This project consists of the following: 1) removal of a 485
square foot canopy, 2) add 192 square foot porch, 3) add a 72
square foot open portico and 4) enclose 111 square foot area for
office use.
2. This property located at 108 Dorset Street lies within the CD
1 District. It is bounded on the north by the 100 Dorset Street
commercial complex, on the east by a proposed retail building, on
the south by Corporate Way and on the west by Dorset Street.
3. Access/circulation: Access is provided via a 30 foot curb cut
on Dorset Street and a 24 foot curb cut on Corporate Way. No
access changes proposed.
Circulation is adequate.
4. Coverage/setbacks: Building coverage is 18.7% (maximum allowed
is 40%). Overall coverage is 61.4% (maximum allowed is 90%).
The building does not meet the setback requirements. The building
is therefore a noncomplying structure subject to Section 19.002 of
the zoning regulations.
5. Parking: This use requires a total of 91 spaces and 96 spaces
are being provided including two (2) handicapped spaces. The
registration parking spaces should be clearly marked for temporary
parking only. Parallel parking spaces should be lengthened to 22
feet.
6. Landscaping: The minimum landscaping requirement, based on
building costs, for this project is $690 which is not being met.
The site is well landscaped so staff did not recommend any
additional landscaping.
7. Traffic: No additional traffic is expected to be generated.

8. Sewer: No additional allocation needed.
9. Lighting: Exterior lighting will consist of the following:
--- one (1) 16 foot pole with two (2) 500 watt high pressure
sodium lamps.
--- six (6) 500 watt high pressure sodium lamps attached to the
building.
--- four (4) 14 foot poles with 250 watt mercury vapor lamps.
--- nine (9) 8 inch globes with 100 watt lamps by entry ways.
--- nine (9) 13 watt florescent soffit lamps along front of
building.
--- six (6) twin 13 watt florescent lamps along front of building
shining towards trees and building.
--- one (1) 13 watt florescent lamp at peak of building
illuminating front of center gable.
10. Dumpster: Dumpster should be screened.
