On the of January, 1998, the South Burlington City Planner

previously approved site plan under Section 26.10 of the South
Burlington Zoning Regulations based on the following findings:
1) This project consists of amending a previously approved site
plan for a 7080 square foot building for multiple uses for a
multiple number of tenants. The amendment consists of: 1) revising
the parking layout, 2) relocating the dumpster storage area, and 3)
minor site modifications. The only issues affected by this
amendment are parking, coverage and landscaping.
2) This property located at 2 Green Tree Drive lies within the IC
District. It is bounded on the north by a vacant lot, on the east
by an industrial building, on the west by Green Tree Drive, and on
the south by Gregory Drive.
3) Coverage: Building coverage is 14.7% (maximum allowed is 30%).
Overall coverage is 58.6% (maximum allowed is 70%). Front yard

29.4% (maximum allowed is 30%).
4) Parking: The plan shows a total of 48 parking spaces including
two (2) handicapped spaces and a bike rack. The four (4) parallel
parking spaces should be eliminated because the required 22 foot
wide parking aisle along these spaces is not available.
5) Landscaping: The plan should be revised to show all existing
landscaping on the site.
6) Dumpster: The plan should be revised to note the type of
screening proposed around the relocated dumpster pad.
