If you have any questions, feel free to contact me. Sincerely, Betsy McDonough Administrative Assistant Encl. Cc: Wayne Elliott, Forcier Aldrich & Associates DEVELOPMENT REVIEW BOARD 16 MARCH 2O04 4�. Public Hearing: Preliminary Plat Application #SD-04-10 and Final Plat Application #SD-04-11 of City of South Burlington to amend a planned unit development consisting of a 115 Hoot high, 1,500,000 gallon water storage tank. The amendment consists of expanding the water tank to 2,100,000 and increasing the height to 150.5 ft., 1215 Dorset St: Ms. Kupfersmith asked about this being a conditional use. Mr. Belair referred to Table C-1, Public & Quasi Public Uses. Because this is part of a PUD, it becomes a permitted use. Ms. Kupersmith also asked about the impact of the height of tank on the neighborhood. Mr. Dinklage noted the Board is being asked to grant a height waiver. Mr. Boucher asked. if would make better sense to share the curb cut. Mr. Dinklage didn't know why the City and the developer of the adjacent property chose not to do that. Mr. Fay responded to the changing of landscaping from white spruce. Those trees are more of a maintenance issue because they get sap on the tanks which has to be cleaned off. Mr. Dinklage reminded the applicant that they will have to have a landscape professional prepare the landscaping plan. Mr. Belair said that has already been done. Mr. Boucher moved to approve Preliminary Plat #SD-04-10 and Final Plat #SD-04-11 of City of South Burlington subject to the stipulations in the draft motion. Ms. Quimby seconded. Motion passed unanimously. Preliminary Plat Application #SD-04-08 and Final Plat Application #SD-04- 09 of City of South Burlington to amend a planned unit development consisting of a 500,000 gallon water storage tank. The amendment consists of adding a second 500,000 gallon water storage tank, 23 Harbor Ridge Road: Mr. Dinklage referred to a letter from John & Elizabeth Leclair, neighbors of the site, who have concerns with the elimination of shrubs which will make the tanks more visible. The applicant noted that there are security concerns since 9/11. He also thought that what was removed was overgrowth, not the original plantings. Mr. Belair said he was comfortable that screening will be adequate. Mr. Dinklage noted that the Leclairs also questioned the color of the tanks. The applicant said the Dorset St tank is the preferred color. They would like the same color for these tanks, a grayish tone with blue. However, the old tank isn't due for repainting until 2014. He said he would talk with CWD about it. Ms. Kupersmith felt there should be more screening. After a brief discussion, the landscaping was left unchanged. -2- DEVELOPMENT REVIEW BOARD 16 MARCH 2O04 Mr. Boucher moved to approve Preliminary Plat #SD-04-08 and Final Plat 4SD-04-09 of City of South Burlington subject to the stipulations in the draft motion. Ms. Quimby seconded. Motion passed 5-1 with Ms. Kupersmith voting against. 6. Public Hearing: Final Plat Application #SD-04-13 of F & M Development Co., LLC, to amend a planned unit development consisting of: 1) 283 residential units in six buildings, 2) subdividing two parcels of 24.458 acres into eight lots, 3) a 90,000 sq. ft. building which will include 11,000 sq. ft. of retail, 150 seat 7500 sq. ft. restaurant, 70,000 sq. ft. general office, 2500 sq. ft. drive -in -bank, and ten residential units, 4) a 7200 sq. ft. addition to an indoor recreation facility, and 5) an existing 16,000 sq. ft. television studio and office building. The amendment consists of the substitution of exterior siding materials on a portion of the building, 409 Farrell St.: Mr. Farrell explained that there was a concern with long-term maintenance. He showed a sample of the siding and a sample of the brick. Mr. Dinklage asked Mr. Farrell to bring the Board up-to-date on the T-intersection. Mr. Farrell said he had met with Bruce Hoar. They feel the intersection is too "generous," but there is an issue with truck deliveries. They have talked about a paved island that can be driven over but would normally be driven around. Mr. Farrell said they will install this at their expense. Ms. Kupersmith asked about the cars parked on the road. Mr. Farrell said that is now illegal and cars will be towed if they park there. Mr. Farrell indicated they are still working with Cathedral Square on a senior project. They might also do some medical offices. Mr. Kupferman moved to approve Final Plat Application #SD-04-13 of F & M Development Co, LLC, subject to the stipulations in the draft motion. Ms. Quimby seconded. Motion passed unanimously. 7. Sketch plan Application #SD-04-07 of Piaazgalli Properties, LLC, for a planned unit development consisting of the construction of a 28,000 sq. ft. general office building, 118 Tilley Drive: Mr. Bouchard explained the 24 ft. proposed setback when the requirement is 35 ft. He said the existing building was built with the old setback (the zoning on that property was changed). Members had no problem with this as the only abutter is a parking lot. Mr. Bouchard said they are requesting 130 parking spaces. There are 141 next door. They have requested a change there to some medical office which will require more spaces and they are maxed out there. If the building they are now proposing went to medical offices, they would need 140 spaces, so they are asking for 130.

The amendment consists of adding a seconded 500,000 water storage tank, 23 Harbor Ridge Road: Mr. Elliott asked if they can combine preliminary and final plats. Mr. Dinklage said this can be done at the applicant's risk. Mr. Elliott noted they are requesting a height waiver. The new tank will be the same height as the existing tank. No other issues were raised. 7. Sketch Plan Application #SD-03-83 of the City of South Burlington to amend a planned unit development consisting of a 115 ft. high 1,500,000 gallon water storage tank. The amendment consists of expanding the water tank to 2,100,000 gallons and increasing the height to 150.5 ft., 1215 Dorset Street: Mr. Elliott noted there had been a concern expressed with aesthetics. He noted that no one can see over the tank at this time. They will raise it from the bottom and the new part of the tank will be on the bottom. It will not restrict views any more than now. -5- CITY OF SOUTH BURLINGTON DEVELOPMENT REVIEW BOARD \drb\sub\south budington\harborddge_water\final DEPARTMENT OF PLANNING & ZONING Report preparation date: March 9, 2004 Application received: February 13, 2004 CITY OF SOUTH BURLINGTON PRELIMINARY PLAT PLAN APPLICATION #SD-04-08 FINAL PLAT PLAN APPLICATION #SD-04-09 Agenda #5 Meeting Date: March 16, 2004 Applicant Owner City of South Burlington Champlain Water District 575 Dorset Street 403 Queen City Road So.

Associate Planner Brian Robertson and Administrative Officer Ray Belair, referred to herein as Staff, have reviewed the plans submitted on February 13, 2004 and have the following comments.

Accordingly, the applicant must provide a site plan and stormwater management system design details that comply with the requirements of Section 12.03(D) of the Land Development Regulations. In addition, the applicant must submit the stormwater management plans to Heindel and Noyes for inclusion in the Bartlett Brook Watershed computer model. Suggested improvements or modifications resulting from the Heindel and Noyes analysis should be incorporated prior to final plat approval by the Development Review Board. CITY OF SOUTH BURLINL JN 3 DEPARTMENT OF DEVELOPMENT REVIEW BOARD PLANNING & ZONING \drb\sub\south burl ingtonlharborridge waterlfinal The applicant has submitted the stormwater management plans to Heindel and Noyes for inclusion in the Bartlett Brook Watershed computer model. A report from Heindel and Noyes approving the stormwater aspect of the proposed project was submitted with the application (attached). SUBDIVISION CRITERIA Pursuant to Section 15.18 of the South Burlington Land Development Regulations, subdivisions shall comply with the following standards and conditions: Sufficient water supply and wastewater disposal capacity is available to meet the needs of the project According to Section 15.13 of the South Burlington Land Development Regulations, the existing public water system shall be extended so as to provide the necessary quantity of water, at acceptable pressure. The proposed structure will serve as a supply source for the City of South Burlington's municipal water supply. Therefore, this requirement is not applicable to the proposed project. Sufficient grading and erosion controls will be utilized during and after construction to prevent soil erosion and runoff from creating unhealthy or dangerous conditions on the subject property and adjacent properties. The proposed project shall adhere to standards for erosion control as set forth in Section 16.03 of the South Burlington Land Development Regulations. In addition, the grading plan shall meet the standards set forth in Section 16.04 of the South Burlington Land Development Regulations. 1. The proposed project shall adhere to standards for erosion control as set forth in Section 16.03 of the South Buffington Land Development Regulations. The project incorporates access, circulation, and traffic management strategies sufficient to prevent unreasonable congestion of adjacent roads. Access to this property is via a 12' wide gravel access drive extending from Harbor Ridge Road. The proposed project will utilize this existing access drive. The proposed project will not create significant traffic, and therefore staff feels the plans are sufficient with regard to this requirement. The project's design respects and will provide suitable protection to wetlands, streams, wildlife habitat as identified in the Open Space Strategy, and any unique natural features on the site. There are no wetlands, streams, wildlife habitat, or other unique natural features on the subject property. CITY OF SOUTH BURLIN& N 4 DEPARTMENT OF DEVELOPMENT REVIEW BOARD PLANNING & ZONING ldrb\sub\south burlington\harborridge water\final The project is designed to be visually compatible with the planned development patterns in the area, as specified in the Comprehensive Plan and the purpose of the zoning district(s) in which it is located. According to Section 4.02 of the Land Development Regulations, the purpose of the R2 District is to encourage moderate -density residential uses. Staff feels the proposed project is in compliance with the stated purpose of the R2 District, as outlined in the Land Development Regulations. Obviously, the water storage tanks are not a residential use; however, they will provide an increased water supply to accommodate residential development. Open space areas on the site have been located in such a way as to maximize opportunities for creating contiguous open spaces between adjoining parcels and/or stream buffer areas. Staff feels the layout of the proposed project meets this requirement. The layout of a subdivision or PUD has been reviewed by the Fire Chief or (designee) to ensure that adequate fire protection can be provided. The South Burlington Fire Chief has reviewed and approved the plans. Roads, recreation paths, stormwater facilities, sidewalks, landscaping, utility lines and lighting have been designed in a manner that is compatible with the extension of such services and infrastructure to adjacent landowners. This requirement is not applicable to the proposed project. Roads, utilities, sidewalks, recreation paths, and lighting are designed in a manner that is consistent with City utility and roadway plans and maintenance standards. The City Engineer is in the process of reviewing the final plans for this project. He did not raise nay major issues when he reviewed the sketch plans. There have been no major changes since the sketch plan review, so staff does not anticipate any significant issues to be raised by the City Engineer. Staff will forward the City Engineer's comments to the applicant as soon as we receive them. These comments shall be incorporated into the plans. 2. The plans shall be revised to incorporate the requests of the City Engineer, prior to recording the final plat plans. 3. Pursuant to Section 15.13(E) of the Land Development Regulations, any new utility lines, services, and service modifications shall be underground. The project is consistent with the goals and objectives of the Comprehensive Plan for the affected district(s). CITY OF SOUTH BURLIN� . _�N 5 DEPARTMENT OF DEVELOPMENT REVIEW BOARD PLANNING & ZONING \drb\sub\south burl ington\harborridge water\final The proposed project is consistent with the goals and objectives for the R2 District, as outlined in the South Burlington Comprehensive Plan. In addition, the proposed project is in conformance with the following objectives relating to public utilities, as outlined in the South Burlington Comprehensive Plan: • maintain the quality of existing utilities or services and remedy recognized deficiencies; • expand public utilities and services that compliment and reinforce the land use and development recommendations contained in Chapter V of the Comprehensive Plan; • adjust the capacity of public utilities and services in concert with that of other municipal services to ensure a stable and appropriate rate of development. SITE PLAN REVIEW STANDARDS Pursuant to Section 14.03(A)(6) of the Land Development Regulations, any PUD shall require site plan approval. Section 14.06 establishes the following general review standards for all site plan applications: 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. The applicant has submitted building elevation plans and visual simulations for the proposed project. The proposed structure will be large. However, it will be the same dimensions as the existing water storage tank on the site. In addition, there is a significant amount of natural screening on the site and the both the existing structure and the proposed structure are below the existing tree canopies. The site provides adequate planting areas, and the applicant is proposing to plant twenty (20) coniferous trees, five (5) deciduous trees, and eleven (11) Virginia Creeper Vine throughout the site. Pedestrian movement and parking areas are not applicable to the proposed project. Parking shall be located to the rear or sides of buildings to the greatest extent practicable. Parking areas are not applicable to the proposed project. 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 proposed structure is going to exceed the 35' height maximum for structures in South Burlington. The existing structure is 60' in height and the proposed structure is 60' in height. Thus, the new structure will be 25' taller than the maximum height limit in the City. The applicant has requested a height waiver from the Development Review Board pursuant to Section 3.07(E)(2) of CITY OF SOUTH BURLINt JN 6 DEPARTMENT OF DEVELOPMENT REVIEW BOARD PLANNING & ZONING \drb\sub\south burlington\harbonidge water\final the Land Development Regulations. The Board has to find that the proposed structure is in conformance with the planned character of the R2 District and that it will not detract unduly from public scenic view sheds. The subject property does not fall within any of the City's Scenic View Protection Overlay Districts, so the structure will not detract unduly from public scenic views from adjacent properties or public streets and walkways. In addition, the existing 60' structure has been there since 1971, so it has been part of the landscape for over thirty years. The applicant has submitted visual simulations of the proposed structure (attached). Staff strongly supports this height waiver request. Newly installed utility services and service modifications necessitated by exterior alterations or building expansions shall, to the extent feasible, be underground. Pursuant to Section 15.13(E) of the Land Development Regulations, any new utility lines, services, and service modifications shall be underground. The Development Review Board 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 applicant is proposing landscaping on the site. Outside of that, this requirement is not applicable to the proposed project. 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 proposed structure will be identical in appearance to the structure that currently exists. The proposed structure will be the same style, color, and height of the existing structure. In addition to the above general review standards, site plan applications shall meet the following specific standards as set forth in Section 14.07 of the Land Development Regulations: 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. The access to the proposed project is via a 12' wide access drive off of Harbor Ridge Road. Staff does not feel it is necessary to require any additional access to abutting properties, due to the nature of the project. 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. CITY OF SOUTH BURL.4 . ON 7 DEPARTMENT OF DEVELOPMENT REVIEW BOARD PLANNING & ZONING \drb\sub\south burlington\harborridu water\final Pursuant to Section 15.13(E) of the Land Development Regulations, any new utility lines, services, and service modifications shall be underground. 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 proposed project does not include any dumpsters or other facilities to handle solid waste. Landscaping and Screening Requirements The applicant has stated that the proposed project will cost $280,000. Pursuant to Table 13-9 of the Land Development Regulations, the proposed project will require a minimum landscaping value of $8,100. The applicant has submitted a planting schedule on Sheet 1 of the plans. The applicant has also submitted a landscape budget to accompany this planting schedule. This budget was prepared by North Country Landscape and Garden Center and indicates that $11,170 of landscaping will be planted on the site. 4. The plans shall be revised to indicate the name of the landscape professional who prepared the landscape plan, prior to recording the final plat plans. The City Arborist reviewed the plans and provided comments dated March 12, 2004 (attached). 5. The plans shall be revised to comply with the requests of the City Arborist, prior to recording of the final plat plans. Staff recommends approval of Preliminary Plat application #SD-04-08 and Final Plat application #SD-04-09, conditional upon the applicant addressing the numbered items in the "Comments" Section of this report.

Blair Administrative Officer City of South Burlington Department of Planning & Zoning 575 Dorset Street South Burlington, VT 05403 Dear Mr. Blair: We received your letter of March 2, 2004, advising us of a Public Hearing on Tuesday, March 16, 2004. We will be out of town so we will not be able to attend the meeting. I did call your office and spoke with Brian who informed me that we could submit a letter for you to read during this hearing. We would appreciate it if you could read our letter in our absence. We first want to say how deeply disappointed we were to learn that they want to put another 500,000 gallon water storage tank next to the existing one on 23 Harbor Ridge Road. As I'm sure you are aware, these storage tanks are quite an eye sore and when we built our house on 24 Harbor Ridge Road 10 years ago, we were well aware of the existing tank in our front yard. We never thought there would ever be the possibility of another one on this property. Brian did spend some time with me on the phone explaining the process that has been going on and how the decision was made to install another one at this site. We are fully aware that at this point in the process, there really is nothing we can do because the decision really has been made to install another one. We would like to suggest that they change the color. This color does not blend in well with the landscape surrounding the tank and makes it even more unpleasant to look at. Also, we would hope you recommend that they spend quite a bit of money on landscaping. There use to be a lot of shrubs camouflaging the current tank, but in the last couple of years, they have come and cut down a lot of it out which only makes the tank stand out even more. We would also like to say that we find it amazing that the city can come in and put in an infrastructure of this magnitude into an existing and beautiful residential neighborhood. As you are aware, we pay an extremely high amount in our property taxes to live here and you can come in and do what you want to decrease the value of our home, at the same time our taxes continue Mr. Raymond J. Blair March 10, 2004 Page 2 to increase. We had our house refinanced last year and they actually deducted money because of the existing water tank in our front yard. We can only imagine what they will do when they see two of them. Thank you for letting us voice our opinion on this very disturbing situation. Sincerely, David & Elizabeth LeClair PUBLIC HEARING SOUTH BURLINGTON, DEVELOPMENT REVIEW BOARD The South Burlington Development Review Board will hold a public hearing at the South Burlington City Hall Conference Room, 575 Dorset Street, South Burlington, Vermont on Tuesday, March 16, 2004, at 7:30 P.M. to consider the following: 1.

ALLEN ROAD TWIN WATER STORAGE TANK Article 3.07 Height of Structures E. Height Waiver for Structures in the R1, R1-PRD, R1-Lakeshore, R2, R4, R7, Lakeshore Neighborhood, Queen City Park and Southeast Quadrant Districts. The existing Allen Road water storage tank is located in the R2 district and was built in 1971. The existing tank is approximately 60 feet high (including the rood and a new twin tank of similar size will be constructed adjacent to the existing tank. The new twin tank is planned to exceed the maximum height for structures specified under 3.07 (D) as part of a planned unit development. A waiver from the maximum height requirements of this section is requested from the Development Review Board. Drawing No. 2 is enclosed which indicates the elevations of the existing and proposed tanks. The new tank will be similar in type and size to the existing tank. Co -location of the new tank was selected as the preferred approach to minimize the impacts on public views. This site is located lower than Spear Street and the location of the new tank will not restrict the views of adjacent properties. View perspectives taken on October 8, 2003 are enclosed which indicate the existing and proposed views. The existing tank was not visible from Spear Street and it is not expected that the new tank will be visible from this location. From Allen Road looking north, the existing tank is visible through the large mature trees. The new twin tank will be visible from this location but will be in a similar line of sight as the existing tank. The existing tank is barely visible through the existing trees looking east and south from Baycrest Drive and Road. The new tank will be slightly visible from these locations, but is well hidden by the existing trees. Article 14.10 Conditional Use Review: General Provisions and Standards The Development Review Board shall review the proposed conditional use for compliance with all applicable standards as contained in these regulations. The proposed conditional use shall meet the following standards: (1) The proposed use, in its location and operation, shall be consistent with the planned character of the area as defined by the City of South Burlington Comprehensive Plan. This site has been the location of an operating water storage tank since 1971 Maintaining and providing adequate long-term water storage capacity at this site is a necessary public use. (2) The proposed use shall conform to the stated purpose of the district in which the proposed use is to be located. (a) The capacity of existing or planned municipal or educational facilities. Expansion of the water storage tank is necessary to provide adequate long-term distribution storage for the City "Main Service" water distribution system. This expanded water storage tank does not impact educational facilities. (b) The essential character of the neighborhood or district in which property is located, or the ability to develop adjacent property for appropriate uses. The site is located in the Residential 2 district and the existing water storage tank has been a prominent feature at this site for the past 30 years. Addition of a new twin tank at the site will not impact the ability to develop adjacent property for appropriate uses. (c) Traffic on roads and highways in the vicinity. Once the expanded water storage tank is operational, there will be no traffic impacts to roadways and highways in the vicinity. (d) Bylaws in effect. Expansion of the existing water storage tank will not adversely affect bylaws in effect. (e) Utilization of renewable energy resources. Expansion of the existing water storage tank will not adversely affect renewable energy resources. (f) General public health and welfare. Expansion of the existing water storage tank will not adversely affect general public health and welfare. Article 14.11 Conditional Use Review: Specific Uses and Standards A. Public Utility, Power Generating Plants, Substations, and Transmission Lines Review of such use shall include a review of 1) the availability of alternative sites and 2) an evaluation of impacts and proposed mitigation measures related to safety, aesthetics, and noise. A "Feasibility Study of Water Storage Tank Sites" was completed in November 2001 to investigate alternative sites for expansion of the water storage for the "Main Service" area. Suitable sites were limited to locations with an existing ground elevation above 320 feet which is required to construct a storage tank which will maintain minimum water system pressures. A total of three (3) sites were evaluated for short and long term storage needs. Each of these sites were compared based on nine (9) criteria and ranked accordingly. For fulfilling the long-term storage requirements, use of the existing Allen Road site was determined to be the preferred site. This site has been the location of a water storage tank since 1971. Co -location is preferred to utilize existing property, access, and infrastructure. By re -using existing infrastructure, the impacts on safety and noise are minimized. The existing tank is lower in elevation and is therefore not visible from Spear Street. Other than the northerly view from Allen Road, the existing tank is well screened by mature trees in the west and north directions. These existing trees extend above the tank and will be maintained to the extent possible. Addition of a new tank of similar type at this site minimizes the impacts on the aesthetics as shown in the enclosed view perspectives.

The proposal includes construction of one tower with a total site area of 0.92 acres. Impervious surface area will increase from 0.03 acres to 0.06 acres within the 0.92-acre parcel. Under existing conditions, land coverage of the property includes grass, woods and grass combination, as well as paved areas. The hydrologic soil group for this area is C. Stormwater runoff from the site resulting from the 25-year storm event was evaluated using the Bartlett Brook Stormwater Model. Peak runoff from the site is not predicted to increase despite the minor increase in impervious surface areas associated with the new development. Flow rates within the associated downstream reaches are also not predicted to increase. Given the fact that this proposed development does not pose any significant alterations to the Bartlett Brook flow regime, we recommend the City approve the stormwater aspects of the proposed project with no modifications. • Consulting Hydrogeologists • Engineers Heindel and Noyes Environmentcdl Scientists H N PO.

Heindel & Noyes (H&N) has completed a stormwater runoff analysis of the Bartlett Brook Watershed. This analysis was conducted to assess the potential changes in peak runoff and peak discharge associated with the proposed water storage tank development on 23 Harbor Ridge Road in South Burlington, Vermont. A site location map is included in Appendix 1. 2. Stormwater runoff was analyzed using the Bartlett Brook Stormwater Model, which was modified to reflect the proposed development. The Bartlett Brook Model was first developed by H&N in 1984 using the USDA Soil Conservation Service TR-20 model. The model has been updated in the intervening years so it is now executed using the HydroCad software package. The Model includes existing development as well as approved but unbuilt development within the watershed. 3. Analysis conducted by H&N relied upon information provided by Forcier Aldrich & Associates, Inc. It is assumed that all information provided by Forcier Aldrich & Associates, Inc. is accurate. This includes but is not limited to: 1) pre- and post - development land coverage (impervious surface areas, land coverage types, soil types), 2) hydrology (on -site water movement and drainage), 3) grading, and 4) other landscape features and site planning characteristics that may impact on - site and off -site stormwater management. ' The Model does not account for recent changes within the Bartlett Brook Watershed that are due to construction activities along U.S. Route 7. ALLEN ROAD PROPERTY - BARTLETT BROOK WATERSHED ANALYSIS 2 4. The design storm used in this analysis was the 25-year, 24-hour storm event, which in the Bartlett Brook Watershed is 4.0 inches of rainfall over a 24-hour period. This storm event is the design standard used for all Bartlett Brook runoff evaluations performed in the past by H&N, and is the design storm specified in South Burlington's stormwater zoning ordinance for the watershed. 5. Peak runoff rates and volumes were determined for pre- and post -development conditions for the subcatchment. 6. Bartlett Brook Model outputs for pre- and post -development conditions are included in Appendices 2 and 3, respectively. 7. Pre -development, the subcatchment (Link #9304 in model) has a discharge rate of 2.98 cfs. Post -development, the subcatchment (Link #9305 in model) has a discharge rate of 2.98 cfs. 8. Pre -development, peak discharge from the subcatchment to the downstream reach (#365 in model) is 61.26 cfs. Post -development, peak discharge to the downstream reach is also 61.26 cfs. There is no predicted downstream increase for the 25-year storm event.

Accordingly, the applicant must provide a site plan and stormwater management system design details that comply with the requirements of Section 12.03(D) of the Land Development Regulations. In addition, the applicants must submit the stormwater management plans to Heindel and Noyes for inclusion in the Bartlett Brook Watershed computer model. Suggested improvements or modifications resulting from the Heindel and Noyes analysis should be incorporated prior to final plat approval by the Development Review Board. CITY OF SOUTH BURLINGTON 3 DEPARTMENT OF DEVELOPMENT REVIEW BOARD PLANNING & ZONING \drblsub\south burl ington\harborridge water\sketch The applicant has submitted the stormwater management plans to Heindel and Noyes for inclusion in the Bartlett Brook Watershed computer model. A report from Heindel and Noyes approving the stormwater aspect of the proposed project was submitted with the application (attached). SUBDIVISION CRITERIA Pursuant to Section 15.18 of the South Burlington Land Development Regulations, subdivisions shall comply with the following standards and conditions: Sufficient water supply and wastewater disposal capacity is available to meet the needs of the project. According to Section 15.13 of the South Burlington Land Development Regulations, the existing public water system shall be extended so as to provide the necessary quantity of water, at acceptable pressure. The proposed structure will serve as a supply source for the City of South Burlington's municipal water supply. Therefore, this requirement is not applicable to the proposed project. Sufficient grading and erosion controls will be utilized during and after construction to prevent soil erosion and runoff from creating unhealthy or dangerous conditions on the subject property and adjacent properties. The proposed project shall adhere to standards for erosion control as set forth in Section 16.03 of the South Burlington Land Development Regulations. In addition, the grading plan shall meet the standards set forth in Section 16.04 of the South Burlington Land Development Regulations. 1. The applicant should submit a grading and erosion control plan for the subject property, in accordance with Section 16.04 of the Land Development Regulations, with the preliminary plat application. The project incorporates access, circulation, and traffic management strategies sufficient to prevent unreasonable congestion of adjacent roads. Access to this property is via a 12' wide gravel access drive extending from Harbor Ridge Road. The proposed project will utilize this existing access drive. The proposed project will not create significant traffic, and therefore staff feels the plans are sufficient with regard to this requirement. The project's design respects and will provide suitable protection to wetlands, streams, wildlife habitat as identified in the Open Space Strategy, and any unique natural features on the site. There are no wetlands, streams, wildlife habitat, or other unique natural features on the subject property. CITY OF SOUTH BURLINGTON 4 DEPARTMENT OF DEVELOPMENT REVIEW BOARD PLANNING & ZONING ldrb\sub\south burl ington\harborridge water\sketch The project is designed to be visually compatible with the planned development patterns in the area, as specified in the Comprehensive Plan and the purpose of the zoning district(s) in which it is located. According to Section 4.02 of the Land Development Regulations, the purpose of the R2 District is to encourage moderate -density residential uses. Staff feels the proposed project is in compliance with the stated purpose of the R2 District, as outlined in the Land Development Regulations. Obviously, the water storage tanks are not a residential use; however, they will provide an increased water supply to accommodate residential development. Open space areas on the site have been located in such a way as to maximize opportunities for creating contiguous open spaces between adjoining parcels and/or stream buffer areas. Staff feels the layout of the proposed project meets this requirement. The layout of a subdivision or PUD has been reviewed by the Fire Chief or (designee) to ensure that adequate fire protection can be provided. The South Burlington Fire Chief has reviewed and approved the plans. Roads, recreation paths, stormwater facilities, sidewalks, landscaping, utility lines and lighting have been designed in a manner that is compatible with the extension of such services and infrastructure to adjacent landowners. This requirement is not applicable to the proposed project. Roads, utilities, sidewalks, recreation paths, and lighting are designed in a manner that is consistent with City utility and roadway plans and maintenance standards. The City Engineer has reviewed and approved the plans. His comments are attached. 2. Pursuant to Section 15.13(E) of the Land Development Regulations, any new utility lines, services, and service modifications shall be underground. The project is consistent with the goals and objectives of the Comprehensive Plan for the affected district(s). The proposed project is consistent with the goals and objectives for the R2 District, as outlined in the South Burlington Comprehensive Plan. In addition, the proposed project is in conformance with the following objectives relating to public utilities, as outlined in the South Burlington Comprehensive Plan.- * maintain the quality of existing utilities or services and remedy recognized deficiencies; CITY OF SOUTH BURLINGTON 5 DEPARTMENT OF DEVELOPMENT REVIEW BOARD PLANNING & ZONING \drb\sub\south burl ingtonlharborridge waterlsketch • expand public utilities and services that compliment and reinforce the land use and development recommendations contained in Chapter V of the Comprehensive Plan; • adjust the capacity of public utilities and services in concert with that of other municipal services to ensure a stable and appropriate rate of development. SITE PLAN REVIEW STANDARDS Pursuant to Section 14.03(A)(6) of the Land Development Regulations, any PUD shall require site plan approval. Section 14.06 establishes the following general review standards for all site plan applications: 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. The applicant has submitted building elevation plans and visual simulations for the proposed project. The proposed structure will be large. However, it will be the same dimensions as the existing water storage tank on the site. In addition, there is a significant amount of natural screening on the site and the both the existing structure and the proposed structure are below the existing tree canopies. The site provides adequate planting areas, and the applicant is proposing to plant twenty (20) coniferous trees, five (5) deciduous trees, and eleven (11) Virginia Creeper Vine throughout the site. Pedestran movement and parking areas are not applicable to the proposed project. Parking shall be located to the rear or sides of buildings to the greatest extent practicable. Parking areas are not applicable to the proposed project. 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 proposed structure is going to exceed the 35' height maximum for structures in South Burlington. The existing structure is 60' in height and the proposed structure is 60' in height. Thus, the new structure will be 25' taller than the maximum height limit in the City. The applicant has requested a height waiver from the Development Review Board pursuant to Section 3.07(E)(2) of the Land Development Regulations. The Board has to find that the proposed structure is in conformance with the planned character of the R2 District and that it will not detract unduly from public scenic view sheds. The subject property does not fall within any of the City's Scenic View Protection Overlay Districts, so the structure will not detract unduly from public scenic views from adjacent properties or public streets and walkways. In addition, the existing 60' structure has been there since 1971, so it has been part of the landscape for over thirty years. The applicant has CITY OF SOUTH BURLINGTON 6 DEPARTMENT OF DEVELOPMENT REVIEW BOARD PLANNING & ZONING \drb\sub\south burlington\harborridge water\sketch submitted visual simulations of the proposed structure (attached). Staff strongly supports this height waiver request. 3. The plans shall be revised to indicate the average pre -construction grade of the site and the height of the proposed structure in relation to the average pre -construction grade, prior to submittal of the next plans. Newly installed utility services and service modifications necessitated by exterior alterations or building expansions shall, to the extent feasible, be underground. Pursuant to Section 15.13(E) of the Land Development Regulations, any new utility lines, services, and service modifications shall be underground. The Development Review Board 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 applicant is proposing landscaping on the site. Outside of that, this requirement is not applicable to the proposed project. 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 proposed structure will be identical in appearance to the structure that currently exists. The proposed structure will be the same style, color, and height of the existing structure.

Height Waiver for Structures in the R1, R1-PRD, R1-Lakeshore, R2, R4, R7, Lakeshore Neighborhood, Queen City Park and Southeast Quadrant Districts. The existing Allen Road water storage tank is located in the R2 district and was built in 1971. The existing tank is approximately 60 feet high (including the roof) and a new twin tank of similar size will be constructed adjacent to the existing tank. The new twin tank is planned to exceed the maximum height for structures specified under 3.07 (D) as part of a planned unit development. A waiver from the maximum height requirements of this section is requested from the Development Review Board. Drawing No. 2 is enclosed which indicates the elevations of the existing and proposed tanks. The new tank will be similar in type and size to the existing tank. Co -location of the new tank was selected as the preferred approach to minimize the impacts on public views. This site is located lower than Spear Street and the location of the new tank will not restrict the views of adjacent properties. View perspectives taken on October 8, 2003 are enclosed which indicate the existing and proposed views. The existing tank was not visible from Spear Street and it is not expected that the new tank will be visible from this location. From Allen Road looking north, the existing tank is visible through the large mature trees. The new twin tank will be visible from this location but will be in a similar line of sight as the existing tank. The existing tank is barely visible through the existing trees looking east and south from Baycrest Drive and Road. The new tank will be slightly visible from these locations, but is well hidden by the existing trees. Article 14.10 Conditional Use Review: General Provisions and Standards The Development Review Board shall review the proposed conditional use for compliance with all applicable standards as contained in these regulations. The proposed conditional use shall meet the following standards: (1) The proposed use, in its location and operation, shall be consistent with the planned character of the area as defined by the City of South Burlington Comprehensive Plan. This site has been the location of an operating water storage tank since 1971 Maintaining and providing adequate long-term water storage capacity at this site is a necessary public use. (2) The proposed use shall conform to the stated purpose of the district in which the proposed use is to be located. (a) The capacity of existing or planned municipal or educational facilities. Expansion of the water storage tank is necessary to provide adequate long-term distribution storage for the City "Main Service" water distribution system. This expanded water storage tank does not impact educational facilities. (b) The essential character of the neighborhood or district in which property is located, or the ability to develop adjacent property for appropriate uses. The site is located in the Southeast Quadrant and the existing water storage tank has been a prominent feature at this site for the past 30 years. Expansion of the water storage tank will not impact the ability to develop adjacent property for appropriate uses. (c) Traffic on roads and highways in the vicinity. Once the expanded water storage tank is operational, there will be no traffic impacts to roadways and highways in the vicinity. (d) Bylaws in effect. Expansion of the existing water storage tank will not adversely affect bylaws in effect. (e) Utilization of renewable energy resources. Expansion of the existing water storage tank will not adversely affect renewable energy resources. (f) General public health and welfare. Expansion of the existing water storage tank will not adversely affect general public health and welfare. Article 14.11 Conditional Use Review: Specific Uses and Standards A. Public Utility, Power Generating Plants, Substations, and Transmission Lines Review of such use shall include a review of 1) the availability of alternative sites and 2) an evaluation of impacts and proposed mitigation measures related to safety, aesthetics, and noise. A "Feasibility Study of Water Storage Tank Sites" was completed in November 2001 to investigate alternative sites for expansion of the water storage for the "Main Service" area. Suitable sites were limited to locations with an existing ground elevation above 320 feet which is required to construct a storage tank which will maintain minimum water system pressures. A total of three (3) sites were evaluated for short and long term storage needs. Each of these sites were compared based on nine (9) criteria and ranked accordingly. For fulfilling the long-term storage requirements, use of the existing Allen Road site was determined to be the preferred site. This site has been the location of a water storage tank since 1971. Co -location is preferred to utilize existing property, access, and infrastructure. By re -using existing infrastructure, the impacts on safety and noise are minimized. The existing tank is lower in elevation and is therefore not visible from Spear Street. Other than the northerly view from Allen Road, the existing tank is well screened by mature trees in the west and north directions. These existing trees extend above the tank and will be maintained to the extent possible. Addition of a new tank of similar type at this site minimizes the impacts on the aesthetics as shown in the enclosed view perspectives. 11 / LD!

The proposal includes construction of one tower with a total site area of 0.92 acres. Impervious surface area will increase from 0.03 acres to 0.06 acres within the 0.92-acre parcel. Under existing conditions, land coverage of the property includes grass, woods and grass combination, as well as paved areas. The hydrologic soil group for this area is C. Stormwater runoff from the site resulting from the 25-year storm event was evaluated using the Bartlett Brook Stormwater Model. Peak runoff from the site is not predicted to increase despite the minor increase in impervious surface areas associated with the new development. Flow rates within the associated downstream reaches are also not predicted to increase. Given the fact that this proposed development does not pose any significant alterations to the Bartlett Brook flow regime, we recommend the City approve the stormwater aspects of the proposed project with no modifications.

Heindel & Noyes (H&N) has completed a stormwater runoff analysis of the Bartlett Brook Watershed. This analysis was conducted to assess the potential changes in peak runoff and peak discharge associated with the proposed water storage tank development on 23 Harbor Ridge Road in South Burlington, Vermont. A site location map is included in Appendix 1. 2. Stormwater runoff was analyzed using the Bartlett Brook Stormwater Model, which was modified to reflect the proposed development. The Bartlett Brook Model was first developed by H&N in 1984 using the USDA Soil Conservation Service TR-20 model. The model has been updated in the intervening years so it is now executed using the HydroCad software package. The Model includes existing development as well as approved but unbuilt development within the watershed'. 3. Analysis conducted by H&N relied upon information provided by Forcier Aldrich & Associates, Inc. It is assumed that all information provided by Forcier Aldrich & E Associates, Inc. is accurate. This includes but is not limited to: 1) pre- and post - development land coverage (impervious surface areas, land coverage types, soil types), 2) hydrology (on -site water movement and drainage), 3) grading, and 4) other landscape features and site planning characteristics that may impact on - site and off -site stormwater management. ' The Model does not account for recent changes within the Bartlett Brook Watershed that are e due to construction activities along U.S. Route 7. ALLEN ROAD PROPERTY - BARTLETT BROOK WATERSHED ANALYSIS 2 4. The design storm used in this analysis was the 25-year, 24-hour storm event, which in the Bartlett Brook Watershed is 4.0 inches of rainfall over a 24-hour period. This storm event is the design standard used for all Bartlett Brook runoff evaluations performed in the past by H&N, and is the design storm specified in South Burlington's stormwater zoning ordinance for the watershed. 5. Peak runoff rates and volumes were determined for pre- and post -development conditions for the subcatchment. 6. Bartlett Brook Model outputs for pre- and post -development conditions are included in Appendices 2 and 3, respectively. 7. Pre -development, the subcatchment (Link #9304 in model) has a discharge rate of 2.98 cfs. Post -development, the subcatchment (Link #9305 in model) has a discharge rate of 2.98 cfs. 8. Pre -development, peak discharge from the subcatchment to the downstream reach (#365 in model) is 61.26 cfs. Post -development, peak discharge to the downstream reach is also 61.26 cfs. There is no predicted downstream increase for the 25-year storm event.
