Re: Findings of Fact, final plat application of Ashbrook Park Homeowner's Association to amend
a previously approved 17 unit planned unit development consisting of three buildings, 701 Dorset
Street.
On the 21' day of September, 1999, the South Burlington Development Review Board approved
the revised final plat application of Ashbrook Homeowner's Association to amend a previously
approved 17 unit planned unit development consisting of three buildings under Section 204 of the
South Burlington Subdivision Regulations based on the following findings:
1. This project consists of amending a 17 unit planned unit development previously approved on
October 13, 1981 consisting of three (3) buildings. The amendment consists of creating separate
lots under the footprint of each unit. Staff discovered that each unit was being sold with the land
underneath without subdivision approval. The Association was contacted and requested to apply
for subdivision approval. The sketch plan was reviewed on 6/22/99.
2. The owners of record of this property are Gerald and Doris Marquis.
3. Access: No changes
4. Coverage/setbacks: Building coverage, overall coverage and setbacks limitations will be
exceeded on all the footprint lots. Section 10.404 of the zoning regulations allows the
Development Review Board to modify the maximum building coverage and setback requirements,
but not maximum lot coverage. This problem can be resolved by recording a "Notice of
Conditions" indicating that for zoning and subdivision purposes all the lots are to be treated as
one (1) lot.
5. Lot size/frontage: The footprint lots will not meet the 9500 square foot minimum lot size
requirement and the 80 foot frontage requirement. Section 10.404 of the zoning regulations
allows the Development Review Board to modify the minimum lot size and minimum frontage
requirements. The recording of a "Notice of Conditions" will eliminate the need to modify the
minimum lot size and minimum frontage requirements by indicating that for zoning and
subdivision purposes all the lots will be treated as one (1) lot.
6. Other:
--- metes and bounds information is included on the plat to tie the corners of each building to
