FINDINGS OF FACT AND DECISION
STATE OF VERMONT
COUNTY OF CHITTENDEN
CITY OF SOUTH BURLINGTON
RE: Findings of Fact, site plan application #SP-02-22 of Fleischer Sales, Inc. to
amend a previously approved site plan for a 4,608 SF mixed -use building. The
amendment consists of replacing 904 SF of auto repair and auto sales with
wholesale business within the 4,608 SF mixed -use building at 10 Gregory Drive,
South Burlington.
On the 9' day of April, the Director of Planning & Zoning approved the site plan
application of Fleischer Sales, Inc. under Section 26.10(b) of the South Burlington
Zoning Regulations, based on the following findings:
1. This project consists of a site plan application to amend a previously
approved site plan for a 4,608 SF mixed -use building. The amendment
consists of replacing 904 SF of space occupied by auto repair and auto sales
use with a wholesale business at 10 Gregory Drive.
2. The owner of record is Ten Gregory Drive Partners.
3. This property is located within the IC -Mixed Industrial Commercial
District.
4. Access and circulation: No changes to access and circulation will result.
5. Parking: The requirements for parking are met by the 23 spaces provided
on site, including one handicapped space, as the wholesale use requires
fewer parking spaces (4 versus 10) than the use it is replacing in the
building.
6. Traffic: Based on the ITE generation for general light industrial use, the
proposed use is projected to generate .51 PM peak hour trip ends per
employee. The applicant has stated that there will be 5 employees.
Therefore the traffic projection is for 2.55 PM peak hour VTEs. This is
below the 12.1 VTEs currently permitted for the auto repair and auto sales
use occupying the same area of the building as the proposed use. No
traffic impact fees will be required.

allowed to exceed the 30% maximum through a previously -issued
variance. All setbacks appear to be met.
8. Landscaping: No changes to the landscaping for the site are proposed and
no additional landscaping is recommended.
