COMMENT Associate Planner Cathyann Yellen and Administrative Officer Ray Belair, referred to herein as staff, reviewed the plan submitted on September 11, 2006, and have the following comments. ACCESSORYRESIDENTIAL UNITS Pursuant to Section 3.10(E)(1) of the proposed Land Development Regulations, in any district where a single-family residence is a principal permitted use, one (1) accessory residential unit within or attached to a primary single-family residence or within an existing, permitted accessory structure may be permitted by the DRB in accordance with Article 14, Site Plan Review, and the following additional criteria: (a) Floor space of the accessory residential unit shall not exceed thirty percent (3001o) of the total habitable area of the single-family dwelling unit. The single family dwelling unit is 3000 SF. The accessory residential unit is 695 SF, or 23.2% of the principal dwelling. Thus, the applicant is in compliance with this criterion. (b) The principal dwelling shall be owner occupied. This applicant has stated that this will be the case. I. The principal dwelling shall remain owner -occupied. (c) Adequate wastewater capacity is available to service the accessory unit, as demonstrated by the issuance of a Wastewater Allocation or on -site wastewater permit pursuant to the South Burlington Sewage Ordinance. 2. If necessary, the applicant shall apply for wastewater allocation from Juli Beth Hinds, Director of Planning and Zoning. (d) Two additional off-street parking spaces shall be provided on the same lot, either in a garage or a driveway, or not in any areas required to meet coverage limitations, or any front yard other than a driveway, required by these Regulations. The site plan shows a total of 5 parking spaces. This is sufficient to satisfy this requirement. (e) A zoning permit shall be required for each accessory residential unit. 3. The applicant shall obtain a zoning permit from the Administrative Officer for the accessory residential unit. CITY OF SOUTH BURLINGTON 3 DEPARTMENT OF DEVELOPMENT REVIEW BOARD PLANNING & ZONING \drblmisc\bose\conditional use acces.doc SITE PLAN REVIEW STANDARDS Section 14.06 of the South Burlington Land Development Regulations establishes the following general review standards for all site plan applications: (a) 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. There is adequate consideration given to pedestrian movement and parking on the site. (b) Parking shall be located to the rear or sides of buildings to the greatest extent practicable. Parking is to the front and side of the building. However, given that the nature of the project as a single-family residential use, staff finds this layout acceptable and in harmony with the rest of the neighborhood. (c) 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 accessory dwelling unit is within the limits specified by the SBLDR. (d) Newly installed utility services and service modifications necessitated by exterior alterations or building expansions shall, to the extent feasible, be underground. The applicant has not proposed any additional lighting as part of this application. (e) 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. The principal residential dwelling and accessory unit are in compliance with this criterion. (� 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. The principal residential dwelling and accessory unit are in compliance with this criterion. 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. CITY OF SOUTH BURLINGTON 4 DEPARTMENT OF DEVELOPMENT REVIEW BOARD PLANNING & ZONING ldrb\misc\bose\conditional use acces.doc Staff does not feel it is necessary to require any additional access easements as part of the proposed project. (b) 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. (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). The applicant has indicated that trash will be kept inside the unit except for trash pickup. (d) Landscaping and Screening Requirements This criterion is not applicable as no new development is proposed. Lighting The applicant has not proposed any additional lighting as part of this application. As previously noted, if any lighting is proposed, staff approval will be required. Access/Circulation Staff finds no issues with the access or circulation on this property. Traffic This project will not generate a sufficient amount of traffic to warrant concern or further review. RECOMMENDATION Staff recommends that the Development Review Board approve Site Plan application #MS-05-44, subject to the applicant addressing the numbered items in the "comments" section of this document.
