CITY COUNCIL 4 NOVEMBER 2019 The South Burlington City Council held a regular meeting on Monday, 4 November 2019, at 6:30 p.m., in the Conference Room, City Hall, 575 Dorset Street. Members Present: H. Riehle, Chair; M. Emery, T. Barritt, T. Chittenden, D. Kaufman Also Present: K. Dorn, City Manager; T. Hubbard, Deputy City Manager; A. Lafferty, City Attorney; P. Conner, Director of Planning & Zoning; T. LeBlanc, Assessor; D. Crawford, N. Warner, L. Yankowski, R. Greco, M. Mittag, M. Ostby, B. Sirvis, K. Donahue, P. Leduc, J. Simson, B. Bowlin, P. O’Brien, L. Nadeau, P. DeMichele, H. & S. Barton, K. Datillio, E. Kohler, Ms. Smith, P. Smyer, J. Leas, J. Rankin, other members of the public 1.Instructions on exiting building in case of emergency: Mr. Dorn provided instructions on emergency evacuation of the building. 2.Agenda Review: Additions, deletions or changes in order of agenda items: Ms. Emery asked to add an “other business” item regarding a returning resident who wants to plant trees to honor his late parents. Ms. Riehle suggested having a formal program for that in the city. Ms. Riehle noted that item “C” should be removed from the Consent Agenda as it will be addressed at the next Council meeting (18 November). Mr. Hubbard asked to remove $2,000,000 in funds from the warrant as this will be addressed later in the meeting. 3.Comments and Questions from the public not related to the agenda: Mr. Donahue noted that 6 homes on Pinnacle drive were flooded during this last storm. The new stormwater ponds were finished this summer and were brought up to the new standards. The pond in question is #6, near 28 Pinnacle Drive. Mr. Donahue noted that no one had ever had water in their homes from the system built in 1995 until this storm. He added that people will be out of pocket as much as $30,000 from the damage to their homes. Mr. Dorn said the engineers need to recalculate what happened there. He noted that similar issues at Butler Farms a few years ago were addressed by people having backflow preventers. He added that he will talk to Mr. DiPietro about what they witnessed and whether there was flooding from other ponds as well. Mr. Donahue hoped this could be done as soon as possible as people want to start rebuilding. Mr. Mittag asked that the balance noted from the FY19 budget be used to replenish the Open Space Fund. He noted the Council had assured people there would be budgeting for park maintenance. Mr. Hubbard said there will be a report on that at the 18 November meeting. CITY COUNCIL 4 NOVEMBER 2019 PAGE 2 Mr. Leduc expressed his gratitude to the City Council and to those involved in the new Food Shelf. He cited the power of the community to come together. On the first morning the Food Shelf was open, it served double digits of people coming. Donations are also being received. Mr. Hubbard noted that the city raised over $20,000. There is $11,000 in the account now. There have been in-kind donations and volunteers doing the work, which resulted in the cost being lower than anticipated. 4.Announcements and City Manager’s Report: Council members reported on meetings and events they had attended in recent weeks. Mr. Dorn: The Steering Committee will meet tomorrow with the City’s Legislators, 7 p.m., at the Middle School. There will be a special City Council meeting on Friday, 8 a.m., regarding amendments to the Land Development Regulations. The ribbon cutting for Market Street will take place at 11 a.m. on 13 November, followed by the groundbreaking for the new City Hall/Library/Community Center. Mr. Dorn will be at Harbor View tomorrow to discuss South Burlington issues. The Airport Sound Study report is now on the BTV website. Members should let Mr. Dorn know if they wish to comment. The bridge between South Burlington and Williston on Kimball Avenue is closed due to damage from the recent storm. People should not even attempt to walk across it. Signals on Williston Rd. are being re-aligned to address the added traffic. The city is looking to the state for emergency funding. If there is an “emergency” declaration, they city will look to FEMA for funding as well. The bridge was to be replaced, but this will now require speeding up that process. It may be necessary to remove the bridge completely because of the damage at both ends. Mr. Dorn stressed this is a dangerous situation. Mr. Kaufman noted the traffic backed up to Brownell Rd. this morning. 5.Consent Agenda: A.Approve and Sign Disbursement B.Approve Minutes for 3 and 16 September C.Accept Stormwater System Maintenance Agreement in connection with Sommerfield Avenue CITY COUNCIL 4 NOVEMBER 2019 PAGE 3 A correction was made to the 16 September minutes in the section concerning the fund balance. The total fund balance is $314,000. Of this, $243,000.00 was added to the paving budget, and $80,000.00 was kept as a fund balance. Item C was removed from the Consent Agenda and will be dealt with at the next meeting. Mr. Barritt moved to approve items A and B of the Consent Agenda with the amendment to the 16 September minutes. Ms. Emery seconded. Motion passed unanimously 6.Discussion with Blane Bowlin of Tyler Tech regarding the Citywide Reappraisal: Mr. Bowlin outlined the phases of the reappraisal process as follows: 1.Data collection (he noted they will start in the field tomorrow and will verify what the City Appraiser has in this fines, indoor and outdoor. Every property in the city will be reappraised. Appraisers will wear yellow vests and have IDs. They will make 3 attempts to enter a home during the week, then will go out on a Saturday. If they still can’t get in, they will send a form for verification.) 2.Data entry of any changes 3.Analysis of sales, etc. 4.Establishment of values by neighborhood 5.Hearings/adjustments 6.A formal appeal process Mr. Dorn noted there is an ad with this information in The Other Paper. There will also be a dedicated web page and information on other social media. Mr. Leblanc added that there will be a dedicated phone line for inquiries and an email address. Mr. Leblanc stressed that the city will not make any more money from the reappraisal. Some appraisals could go up, some down, some stay the same. He felt that since the Grand List has increased, taxes could go down. Mr. Leblanc also noted that he will do follow-ups with home owners to be sure the appraisers have been courteous. Ms. Riehle asked about basements that were flooded in the recent storm and may not be redone before the reappraisal. Mr. Leblanc said the home value is determined as of April 1st. He also noted that some repairs will need permits. CITY COUNCIL 4 NOVEMBER 2019 PAGE 4 Mr. Mittag asked whether solar panels add value to a home. Mr. Leblanc said they do not in Vermont. A member of the audience asked what will happen if people don’t let the appraiser enter. Mr. Bowlin said they will estimate, take photos from the public right-of-way. He also noted that the structure plus the land equals the overall value of the property. Ms. Riehle asked about evaluating homes near the Airport. Mr. Bowlin said sales in the area have already taken that into account. Mr. Leblanc said they cannot change the value of homes until there is sales data. Ms. Greco asked whether people can be informed when appraisers will be in their area. Mr. Bowlin said they can. Mr. Leblanc added there will be information on the website along with pictures of the assessors and their vehicles. Mr. Barritt asked whether there have been background checks of the appraisers. Mr. Bowlin said there have. Mr. Leblanc said the goal is to make things as fair as possible. He noted that finished basements are a problem and can happen over time as can units above a garage. They try to pick up on these. He said if a homeowner is concerned about letting someone into the home, then don’t let them in. 7.Review and Possibly approve proposal from Earth Economics to develop a valuation model for various and many natural resource-related features of the Southeast Quadrant as a component of the overall Interim Zoning studies currently being undertaken: Mr. Kaufman moved to approve the proposal from Earth Economics and to authorize the City Manager to negotiate the terms of the contract. Ms. Emery seconded. Ms. Emery said she would like to model to go beyond the Southeast Quadrant as the IZ Open Space Committee did. Mr. Chittenden said he would vote against the motion. He didn’t feel it would let the city do anything more than it is doing now. Mr. Barritt said he didn’t want the cost to go beyond the stated price. If they can do parcels outside the SEQ without increasing the cost, he was OK with it; if not, he was opposed. CITY COUNCIL 4 NOVEMBER 2019 PAGE 5 Mr. Hubbard noted the money for the study will have to come out of contingency money. Mr. Chittenden said he felt that money could be better spent. Mr. Nadeau asked why this is surfacing now. Ms. Riehle said the city has been looking for someone to do the study, and Jessica Louisos recommended this company. Mr. Nadeau said he talked to someone at the company and they won’t finish the study till the end of February which would require another extension to Interim Zoning. He said people are being held hostage by Interim Zoning, and this process is making it very difficult for them. He felt that even if this is approved, Interim Zoning should end in 3 months. In the vote that followed, the motion passed 4-1 with Mr. Chittenden voting against. 8.Public Hearing, Council discussion and possible action related to extending the time period during which Interim Zoning bylaws are in affect: Mr. Barritt moved to open the public hearing. Mr. Kaufman seconded. Motion passed unanimously. Mr. Barritt moved to extend Interim Zoning by three months. Ms. Emery seconded. Mr. Chittenden said he will vote against the motion as it creates uncertainty for landowners. He felt the city has done a lot to conserve open space and he supports that. He also cited the need for housing. Mr. Barritt moved to close the public hearing. Mr. Kaufman seconded. Motion passed unanimously. In the vote on the motion to extend Interim Zoning that followed, the motion passed 4-1 with Mr. Chittenden opposing. 9.Update from Affordable Housing Committee on status of committee initiatives (consider possible reduction of development review and permitting fees for required inclusionary dwelling units as part of zoning amendments under review by Planning Commission): CITY COUNCIL 4 NOVEMBER 2019 PAGE 6 Mr. Simson advised that in a meeting with developers, they were told that there is a cost to developers for having to provide units at a lower price point. The committee has come to the conclusion that one way to provide/fund affordable housing is to have the whole community participate by waiving some of the permit fees for affordable units. This would be only for the inclusionary units. The committee felt that Planning & Zoning fees could be waived immediately; impact fees would be more complex a process and would have to be looked at individually. Mr. Conner said staff has run through some numbers. There is a cost of about $6000 in fees for new multi-unit development units (e.g., $800 Planning & Zoning; $2000 sewer, etc.) and somewhat higher for single family units (e.g., $1300 Planning & Zoning fees). The proposal to reduce/waive some of these fees would be applicable only in the Transit Overlay District and would involve about 10 units per year. This would add up to $10,000-$12,000 in Planning & Zoning fees for the year. Ms. Emery said she favors waiving Planning & Zoning fees as she felt this will tilt the scale to make housing more affordable. Mr. Conner asked whether staff should explore impact fees as well. Council members felt that can be discussed later. Ms. Ostby said the timing of this is perfect. With inclusionary zoning, a developer must be given an offset. The regulations now allow that to be only in the form of density. Developers say density isn’t always the answer. Waiving some fees would also show that the community supports affordability. Mr. O’Brien said it would be wise for the Council to look at all the fees. Ms. Riehle said the Council is looking at what it can do in 2 weeks. They can consider other fees at a later time. Ms. DeMichele said the City of Burlington offsets partial fees. The city should look at how this works in Burlington. Mr. O’Brien said he didn’t understand why this wouldn’t affect all affordable units and not only the inclusionary ones. He cited the affordable units at South Village where they got a density bonus, but the units have to be perpetually affordable. The Council asked Mr. Conner to come back with more information. CITY COUNCIL 4 NOVEMBER 2019 PAGE 7 10.Update on City/School Collaboration: Mr. Hubbard referred back to the $2,000,000 removed from the warrants in the Consent Agenda. He noted that the School District has 13 days when they cannot meet payments. In the past, they have gotten loans to cover this. The suggestion is that the city lend the money to the School District at a lower interest rate. The money would be paid back with the interest when property tax money is received. This will ultimately save the tax payers money at no cost to the city. Ms. Emery moved to approve the $2,000,000.00 loan to the School District as presented. Mr. Chittenden seconded. Motion passed unanimously. 11.Consider and possibly approve a proposed prohibition of parking on a portion of Brookwood Drive and Sherry Road: Mr. Conner noted a history of parking challenges on both sides of the streets. The new building on the corner has added to the problems including an issue of emergency access. The recommendation is to allow parking on only one side of Brookwood and not at all on the first 150 feet of Sherry Rd. Mr. Conner added that there have been concerns with some driveways being blocked, so there would also be painted parking spaces outlined where they are allowed. Mr. Barritt and Ms. Emery noted the parking spaces in the parking lot of the new building are being underused, so they felt this makes good sense. Mr. Barton, a resident of Brookwood, said their problem is the new businesses. He was concerned that the current proposal would prohibit him from parking in front of his house or anywhere near it. He also cited problems with the owner of the new building who “hangs up on us” when they call to complain about the employees parking on the street instead of in the lot. Ms. Barton said if the indicated parking spaces are taken away, those employees will just go down the block further. She noted that it took her an 8-point turn to get out of her driveway. She also noted that at an event at the new building, neighbors called the police when things got so bad. They received no return calls from the city and no responses to emails. Ms. Barton said that the employees have told them they are not allowed to park in the parking lot. Mr. Conner said he would be happy to contact the property owner. CITY COUNCIL 4 NOVEMBER 2019 PAGE 8 A member of the audience suggested “resident parking only” on those streets. Mr. Conner said there presently is no structure for that. There would have to be a whole system set up (IDs for allowable cars, etc.). He stressed that the important concern now is having access for emergency vehicles. Another Brookwood resident said they have been a residential community and the city has pushed a commercial use into that community. He said they feel like they are living “in a commercial parking lot.” Ms. Riehle suggested the Council send a letter to the building owner regarding the issue and asking that he find parking for his employees in other lots. Mr. Datillio thanked Mr. Chittenden for bringing this issue forward. He said he has seen their residential neighborhood turn into a commercial one, and from a very small business to a very large one. They want to be a residential neighborhood again. He felt the city let in a commercial business that doesn’t care about them. He cited over 200 years of combined residency by people on Brookwood. They didn’t complain about UMall or Hannaford, but this is enough. The new building owner is taking away their right to get their streets plowed, to have emergency services. He felt it was the City Council’s responsibility to tell the owner his employees have to park in their own parking lot. Ms. Riehle assured residents that their issues were not falling on deaf ears. She hoped the neighborhood could be returned to resident use, but said it may not happen overnight. The city will try to work with the businesses as to how they need to fit in. Ms. Sirvis said this is an example of what can happen because the Council voted to eliminate minimum parking requirements. And this issue occurred when there were requirements. Mr. Kaufman said he agrees 100% with Mr. Datillio that residents have a right to have their street returned to a neighborhood street. Ms. Riehle suggested starting with one side of the street parking, marking out parking spaces and working with the new building owner and other owners to find parking for their employees. A member of the audience said the process for “residential parking only” should also be started. CITY COUNCIL 4 NOVEMBER 2019 PAGE 9 Mr. Datillio said “no parking” isn’t going to solve anything. The employees have been told to park on the street. If they park in their own lot, the problem is solved. Mr. Nadeau said there once was a “resident parking only” prohibition. That should be looked into. Ms. Riehle said it will take some work to get there. Mr. Dorn said it will require an Ordinance process, and it needs to get better before that process. Mr. Conner suggested no parking on Brookwood from Sherry Rd. to Dorset Street as a safety measure, and striping of parking spaces on the north side of the street. He felt Sherry Rd. is too narrow for parking. Members agreed. 12 Presentation and Discussion with representatives of the applicant in connection with advanced notice of an application for a Certificate of Public Good to install a new utility pole on property located at 255 Quarry Hill Road and thereon install an antennae and associated equipment to be filed with the Public Utility Commission: Ms. Kohler noted that on 2 October they filed a 60-day advance notice to the municipality, property owners, etc. This expired on 2 December. They will then be in a position for a full filing. The proposed light pole with antenna will be 37 feet tall at the top of the antenna. They have been deploying a number of these in the area. Mr. Barritt asked if there is a height restriction in the area. Ms. Smith said they used the light standard for that area. Mr. Barritt then asked how far the pole is from the corner of the building. Ms. Kohler said 100 feet southwest from where it was originally proposed. Mr. Barritt asked if it can be even further from living spaces. Ms. Kohler said this location is agreed upon with the building owner. She said it is extremely safe. She herself would be happy to live there. Ms. Kohler noted that ATT won the bid to deploy a nationwide network. It will carry the frequency to support the First Net Network and will be available locally for public safety uses and priority uses in an emergency. Ms. Emery asked Ms. Lafferty what the city can do regarding location. Ms. Lafferty said there are limitations. They can’t discriminate among providers and can’t consider health impacts. She noted that the application hasn’t been submitted yet. The city can participate at the Public CITY COUNCIL 4 NOVEMBER 2019 PAGE 10 Service Board which will have to take the city’s comments into account but may not act on them. Mr. Barritt reminded the applicant to check the height of the light fixture. 13.Winooski Valley Park District Annual Report and Request for Funding: Mr. Warner reviewed the history. He noted the District now manages 753 acres. The most recent acquisition is at the mouth of the Winooski River. They will re-naturalize the site. The District has done significant work in South Burlington (Red Rocks, etc.) as a contractor and are now doing similar work for other towns. This is in the budget as a source of revenue. They have been able to keep budgetary growth down to 2.6%. This will include catching up on deferred maintenance. They are looking to acquire some property in Williston and the City of Winooski Memorial Park. Mr. Warner thanked the city for its continuing support. 14.Consider and possibly approve minor change to City Center portion of Official Map for a Roadway Segment on the North Side of Williston Road near Dorset Street: Mr. Conner explained the nature of the Official Map. This request is for a minor change. Joe Larkin and the adjacent property owner have a deal in which they would share the road. This does not affect with Williston Road/Dorset Street alignment, and actually may improve that intersection. Mr. Chittenden moved to approve the minor change to the Official Map as presented. Ms. Emery seconded. Motion passed 4-0 (Mr. Kaufman was away from the table during this vote). 15.Council review and discussion related to a proposed MOU between the Cities of South Burlington, Winooski and Burlington on matters related to Burlington International Airport: Ms. Riehle reviewed the history of a previous MOU which reached an impasse. She noted that South Burlington and the other 2 cities are trying to make some progress. CITY COUNCL 4 NOVEMBER 2019 PAGE 11 Ms. Riehle noted that the City of Burlington came back with a structure of what each community can do. It creates somewhat of a process going into the future. Ms. Riehle then outlined her concerns as follows: a.On p. 3, there should be more specificity relating finding additional dollars b.A section “n” should be added to require Burlington to pitch in to a “local match” Ms. Emery said if you make a decision that impacts people, you should be prepared to help mitigate that impact. Mr. Chittenden said he felt South Burlington should be billing the Airport for Mr. Dorn’s time, Mr. Conner’s time, etc. He didn’t feel any South Burlington money should be spent until that is done. Ms. Emery said she felt the MOU should address evacuation plans. She noted the Vermont Yankee did this. It should also address health issues such as hearing, cardio-vascular, school attention deficit, migraines, increased cases of cancer near the Airport, etc. It should also focus on the 5 homes in the 75dB zone. Mr. Barritt noted there are no evacuation plans for anything (fire, flood, small plane crash, etc.). Ms. Emery said she gets phone calls about this. Mr. Chittenden said this shouldn’t be the city’s plan; it should be the Airport’s. Ms. Emery questioned what “h” means: no taxes while the house is being insulated? Ms. Riehle said she would get information on that. Ms. Emery also felt that for each new noise exposure map there should be a new NCP. Ms. Riehle said South Burlington shouldn’t be told how to spend the money that comes to it. Mr. Kaufman said that should be deleted. Ms. Emery also felt there should be no military takeoff that reach a certain level until there is sound mitigation. Mr. Leas said the MOU may have some value and that the city shouldn’t shut up about what it wants. He noted that while other planes are getting quieter, the F35 isn’t. He felt the noise CITY COUNCIL 4 NOVEMBER 2019 PAGE 12 can’t be mitigated by insulation and they should be talking about cancelling the F35s. Ms. Emery said South Burlington is “being taken.” She added Burlington is doing the same thing with the proposal near Red Rocks Park. She felt the city needs to be more forceful in defending its residents. A member of the audience said there is a lot of neglect in letting these planes fly over the city’s children. She questioned why the Airport hasn’t ordered noise monitoring equipment and said it is absurd that takeoffs are being allowed at this time with no sound mitigation. She also noted that someone in Col. Smith’s entourage told her: “You can always move away.” She asked if that is what the National Guard stands for. Ms. Rankin said the MOU should have something about noise measuring and felt there is a reason it hasn’t happened before. If this had been done of the past few years, there would be data. Ms. Riehle said all the comments will be added to the MOU discussion and they will see what happens. 17 Reports from Councilors on Committee Assignments: No reports were presented. 18. Other Business: Ms. Riehle said the city should create a process for “memorial trees.” Mr. Barritt noted a missing 25 MPH sign on Spear Street at Quarry Hill, so the police can’t ticket speeders. He also asked for an energy/efficiency report from Lou Bresee, addressing dead trees on Dorset and Spear Streets, and a discussion regarding the selling of confiscated guns, which he felt should be destroyed. As there was no further business to come before the Council, Mr. Kaufman moved to adjourn. Mr. Barritt seconded. Motion passed unanimously. The meeting was adjourned at 11:25 p.m. _______________________________, Clerk CITY COUNCIL Special Meeting Friday, November 8, 2019 The South Burlington City Council held a Special Meeting on Friday, November 8, 2019 at 8:20 AM in the Champlain Conference Room at City Hall, 575 Dorset Street.

Tonight he is presenting a proposal to the Burlington City Council to add 2 commissioners to the Airport Commission, one from Burlington and one from Winooski. 6.Consent Agenda: A.Approve and Sign Disbursement Mr. Kaufman moved to approve the Consent Agenda as presented. Ms. Emery seconded. Motion passed 4-0. 7.Presentation by Maura Carroll, Executive Director, Vermont League of cities and Towns: Ms. Carroll noted that there are 49 municipal leagues in the country with a similar structure, though they deal with different issues. They are connected through the National League of Cities. The leagues meet regularly to provide information and resources to communities. All of the cities and towns in Vermont are members of VLCT. VLCT has 52 employees, half of whom work with risk pools. Ms. Carroll indicated the various insurances they can provide and noted the one which South Burlington has chosen. VLCT raises about $1,000,000 in dues which covers all of its activities. Ms. Carroll noted that their annual meeting will be in South Burlington this year. Ms. Carroll then enumerated some of the services provided by VLCT including training for moderators, Planning and Zoning, open records information, etc. They have been discussing how to be more responsive to communities and are looking to create a City Officials Workshop. They also want to be a resource for city attorneys. They have had an economic development program for communities of all sizes and are very supportive of communities working together. Ms. Carroll noted that they are also working to see if they can create a program so that larger communities can be direct members of the National League. She cited the importance of having rural states be represented nationally. Ms. Carroll said the League is always looking for any feedback from its member communities. 8.Council Action to Ratify Action Taken that Resulted from Consideration and Discussion of Candidates for Appointment to the Development Review Board during an executive session that the Council inadvertently held without affirmative vote: CITY COUNCIL 2 DECEMBER 2019 PAGE 3 Mr. Barritt read the following statement: For the Council’s meeting on November 18, 2019, the agenda included executive session on three separate matters. Due to the late hour and adjustments to the agenda, the Council inadvertently made the necessary motions to consider only two of the three matters in executive session. The Council did not vote on a motion to consider candidates for the Development Review Board in executive session, but did discuss and consider this appointment in executive session and later re-entered the open meeting and voted to appoint Elissa Portman to fill the vacancy on the Development Review Board. In order to correct this mistake, the Council has disclosed this executive session and its purpose, and now will ratify this action. Mr. Barritt then moved that the Council appoint Elissa Portman to the Development Review Board. Ms. Emery seconded. The motion passed 4-0. 9.Council discussion and possible action on establishing a process to allow gifts to be made to the City to include those made in memoriam: Ms. Emery suggested that the Public Art Committee might be good to do this or to have requests come through the City Council to be assigned to a committee. Ms. Carroll said she would check to see if VLCT has a protocol for this. Ms. Riehle felt it would be good to have a program for the planting of trees in honor of someone. 10.Recommendation from the Housing Trust Fund Committee related to an application for funding from the Champlain Housing Trust and possible action by the Council: Mr. Kupferman said the Committee recommends the Council approve a $50,000 donation to the current project of Champlain Housing. The project will provide 60 apartments for a full range of incomes in City Center. This is the final funding request. Ms. Emery moved to approve the allocation from the Housing Trust Fund of $50,000 to Champlain Housing Trust as presented. Mr. Barritt seconded. Motion passed 4-0. CITY COUNCIL 2 DECEMBER 2019 PAGE 4 11.Update on proposed Indoor Recreation Facility: Mr. Leet reviewed the history of the proposed project including community input. He noted the 54,000 sq. ft. building would be located directly south of the Cairns buildings. 240 parking spaces would also be added as part of the project. Mr. Leet then outlined the building details including multi-use courts, turf field, movement center, possible future aquatic center, and an enclosed connection to the Cairns building (which could be closed off). The main sports arena would have both wood and synthetic courts. Mr. Leet indicated the location of locker rooms and an upstairs lounge. The construction would be similar to the Cairns buildings with skylights throughout. Ms. Emery noted a possible issue with now on a flat roof blocking the windows above it. The construction cost, not including “soft costs” would be $17,671,000 based on April 2021 starting date. The total project cost is estimated at $21,497,375 which includes owner costs. Some cost-saving possibilities include removing the turf piece ($1,595,000), removing the covered connection ($250,000) and eliminating the movement studio ($645,000). Ms. Emery asked what the use of the turf field would be. Ms. Rees said it would serve school- age turf sports, agility courses, golf clinics, etc. This would meet a need that the private sector used to provide but no longer does. Ms. Kochman said the Parks and Recreation Committee is pleased to see this moving along. She then noted a Resolution (read by Mr. Simoneau) expressing the Committee’s concern with the proposed additional 2 cents for preservation of land. The Committee felt the Recreation Center project was next in line and unanimously opposed the proposal for the 2 cents for preservation. Mr. Kaufman said he is 100% behind the Recreation Center project. Mr. Crawford said he was impressed with the Rec Center proposal but was concerned with traffic from a safety point of view. Mr. Barritt said there should be improvements at the intersection. Ms. Blanchard said there will be a traffic study for the project. It may also have to go to Act 250 to amend the existing Act 250 approval. 12.Update on the Conservation of the former Auclair property by representatives of Dirt Capital and the Bread and Butter Farm: CITY COUNCIL 2 DECEMBER 2019 PAGE 5 Mr. Conner noted that due to the recent storm, Dirt Capital people would be participating by phone. He then noted that this item relates to the acquisition of 3 parcels of Auclair property in three separate transactions. He indicated the parcels on an overhead slide. He also noted that the city contributed $605,000 toward the conservation of Parcel “B.” Mr. Phelps identified Muddy Brook as a major waterway and showed the location of the Scott, Leduc, and Ewing parcels which have been or are being conserved. He then showed the parcel just acquired for conservation and noted this will create 2,000 acres of contiguous conserved land. Bread and Butter Farm has farmed the Leduc property for 10 years, creating jobs and access to the land for the public. All products raised are sold within the state. Mr. Karnatis said his role is to bring all of the together and secure all the funding needed. He explained how the acquisition happened and noted that the Vermont Land Trust owns Parcel “A.” Other parcels were created with partners including Dirt Capital. Ownership of the farms will be transmitted to Bread & Butter Farm. All the money to conserve Parcel “A” is coming through VHCB. It was also noted that some artifacts were found in the area which will preclude the use of that property. There is a 3.5 acre piece which will be added to Heather Auclair’s lot. There is one housing TDR that goes with that property. The Vermont Housing Conservation Board (VHCB) will be the holder of all the easements before the land is transferred to Bread & Butter Farm, probably a few years down the road. Mr. Barritt asked if there are any TDR areas. These were identified, and it was noted the city will relinquish covenants on those TDRs to the new easements which are more restrictive. TDRs that aren’t sold will be transferred to the owners of Parcel “B.” The forest lands on parcels “B” and “C” will not be converted, but there can be agricultural use on that land. It was noted that a $900,000 grant has been applied for to purchase parcel “B.” If this money is received, it must be spent within 2 years. Parcel “C” is the lowest in conservation value. CITY COUNCIL 2 DECEMBER 2019 PAGE 6 Up to 9 units of housing would be allowed on Parcel “B.” The need for housing for farming families was stressed. It was noted that Interim Zoning was a critical issue and could change the appraisal value of the property. Those involved are concerned they will lose value when Interim Zoning ends. It was also noted that the City has an option agreement for a right of first refusal on parcel “B” which will expire soon. Representatives expressed their passion about building community around this program. They are planning education, musical programs, training of new farmers, research in conjunction with universities, etc. 13.Interim Zoning Application #IZ-19-06 of Blackrock Construction to subdivide a 6.91 acre undeveloped parcel into two lots for the purpose of a 32-unit residential planned unit development. The planned unit development is to consist of 10 single family homes and 22 units in two-family dwellings, plus off-site infrastructure improvements, 550 Park Road: Mr. Kaufman moved to open the public hearing. Ms. Emery seconded. Motion passed 4-0. Mr. O’Leary showed the location of the project at the corner of Park Road and Dorset Street, referred to as the Wheeler Parcel. He reviewed the history, including the Court settlement and land swap with the city, that has led to the present application. The piece to be developed is what JAM Golf received from the City of South Burlington. The City Council adopted regulations to allow this development. The development is wholly in the area approved by the Court and should thus not be subject to Interim Zoning. Mr. O’Leary noted they are not planning any affordable units. Mr. Conner said the Council’s role is to determine whether the proposal falls within the agreement. No issues were raised. Mr. Barritt moved to close the hearing. Ms. Emery seconded. Motion passed 4-0. CITY COUNCIL 2 DECEMBER 2019 PAGE 7 14.CCTV Annual Report: Ms. O’Rourke noted that CCTV covers 5 meetings a month for South Burlington in addition to community events such as the recent groundbreaking. The now live-stream Council and DRB meetings. They will be working with the city on a set-up for the new building. Ms. Davitian spoke of recent trends that have affected their revenues. They are asking municipalities for help in dealing with this. They will be asking South Burlington for 5% more in the coming year ($600). Ms. Davitian noted the Legislature approved a study committee which looked at other models around the country. There will be a proposal for the Legislature to consider in the next year. Ms. Davitian noted the dispute with Comcast has been settled. CCTV will have a complete listing of channels. Channel 17 will no longer be called “Channel 17,” though it will still be on Channel 17. Mr. Barritt suggested that VLCT should be aligned with CCTV. 15.Council Update and Discussion regarding City of Burlington Zoning Permit #20-0514CA related to proposed improvements at the site owned by Burton Snowboards: Mr. Conner reviewed the history. He noted the applicant has submitted an application to perform stormwater improvements on the property. They are also rearranging the parking lot, planting trees, and adding a new access driveway which will access onto Queen City Park Road. The property owners were advised to reach out to the City of South Burlington because it appears that a portion of the new curb cut is on South Burlington land. They city has not heard from them. Mr. Barritt asked what the applicant would need from South Burlington if that curb cut is on South Burlington land. Mr. Conner said they would have to have a right-of-way permit from Public Works. Ms. Emery asked what the city can do if the property owner doesn’t make contact. Mr. Conner said the City is an interested party and can appeal the administrative decision. It would go to the Burlington DRB. Ms. Emery asked if there is anything that would trigger an Act 250 hearing regarding traffic. Mr. Conner did not know. He felt that the addition of 10 parking spaces shouldn’t trigger a traffic study. Ms. Riehle cited the safety issue at a South Burlington intersection. CITY COUNCIL 2 DECEMBER 2019 PAGE 8 Members agreed on the need to appeal. Mr. Bolduc said because of the tight deadline, City Attorneys will file the appeal and the have outside counsel meet with the Council in executive session. A member of the audience suggested also appealing the administrative review process rather than a full DRB process. Mr. Smith thanked the Council for dealing with this. He noted that 11 people from the Queen City Park area were present. He said the application went in on 7 November. The Planning office got updated plans on 18 November, and the project was approved on 19 November. This set the appeal process over the holidays and didn’t give time for input from the Department of Public Works. The project was broken into smaller pieces to facilitate the review process. Mr. Smith said their hope is that the project be reviewed under “major impact” review criteria. They feel the curb cut is in a “crazy place” for large truck access. He also noted residents of the area have hired an attorney and are filing an appeal on the process of administrative review. Mr. Barritt moved that the Council formally appeal the City of Burlington Zoning Permit #20- 0514CA administrative decision, with regard to access and circulation, pursuant to Section 12.2.2 of the City of Burlington’s Zoning Ordinance. Ms. Emery seconded. Motion passed 4-0. 16.Other Business: Ms. Riehle noted the frustration of the Planning Commission expressed in their recent letter with regard to the Council’s intent as to actionable items under Interim Zoning. Ms. Riehle said her expectation when Interim Zoning was enacted was that the public be engaged and that the Council would review reports and, if appropriate, have draft Land Development Regulations written to carry out the intentions. Mr. Conner said what the Planning Commission voted to submit was the report submitted by the TDR Committee. The vote was to submit it to the Council to assure that it is on the track the Council wants before making major changes in the regulations. They are also concerned with the time-frame to develop regulations and how that is to be considered in the context of the end of Interim Zoning. Ms. Emery said it is the Earth Economics piece that is holding things up. As there was no further business to come before the Council, Mr. Kaufman moved to adjourn. Mr. Barritt seconded. Motion passed unanimously. The meeting was adjourned at 11:20 p.m. _________________________________, Clerk Memo To:South Burlington City Council From: Tom DiPietro, Deputy Director of Public Works CC: Kevin Dorn, City Manager Justin Rabidoux Director of Public Works Date: December 31, 2019 Re: Better Roads Grant Application for Kimball / Marshall Avenue Culvert Replacement The stream crossing over Muddy Brook on South Burlington’s border with the town of Williston failed in 2017. At that time, a temporary bridge was installed that allowed traffic to continue despite the failure of the culvert beneath. During the 2019 Halloween storm the failed culvert washed out completely. Damage from the storm required that the temporary bridge be closed. Work was completed to temporarily stabilize the area and re-open the bridge, but a permanent stream crossing needs to be installed. Prior to the Halloween 2019 storm event and since the initial incident in 2017, work has been underway to design a permanent crossing in this location that provides safe pedestrian facilities to connect South Burlington and Williston. This has long been a goal in the region as evidenced by past studies (2006 & 2010) completed by the CCRPC and available at: https://studiesandreports.ccrpcvt.org/wp- content/uploads/2018/01/SharedUsePathOverMuddyBrook_20061221.pdf https://studiesandreports.ccrpcvt.org/wp-content/uploads/2017/01/Supplemental-Info- Report-10-04-10.pdf The municipalities of South Burlington and Williston are strongly committed to advancing this replacement structure, improving the bicycle and pedestrian facilities in this area, and improving the non-vehicular connection between our two communities. In order to move this effort forward, we would like to apply for a Better Roads Grant to help defray the cost of construction. Included with this memo please find a copy of the Better Roads grant application, as well as a grant request form to council. We trust you will find this application complete, but if you have any questions please feel free to reach out to me. I am requesting that Council indicate their support for this project and the City’s grantapplication to the Better Roads Grant program. I am requesting that council take a formal vote on this matter and approve submission of the attached grant application. If you have any questions, please contact me at (802) 658 – 7961 x6113 or tdipietro@sburl.com. City Of South Burlington, Grant Request Form Prior to applying for a grant please complete this form and submit to Assistant City Manager.. Please submit at least two weeks prior to City Council approval meeting. Extenuating circumstances which do not permit two weeks notice should be brought to the attention of the Assistant City Manager as soon as possible. Please attach actual grant application form – either blank or completed __Tom DiPietro ___________________________ _____December 31, 2019_______ Name and title of person completing this form (Project Manager) Date 1. Name/title of grant and submittal deadline date: 2021 Better Roads Grant Program – Category D. Due December 13, 2019. 2.What specifically is the grant’s purpose? The Better Roads grant program provides funding for planning and erosion control projects that improve water quality and reduce maintenance costs. 3. What does the grant fund and not fund (be specific)? This grant will fund construction of a new culvert on Muddy Brook located on Kimball Avenue at the City’s border with the Town of Williston. 4. Total Project Cost: $2,145,000 a. Amount of grant: $60,000 b.Is there a City match required, how much and in what fiscal year(s)? Yes. A 20% match is required. Remaining project costs will be shared by the City and the Town of Williston. We anticipate incurring expenses in FY21 and FY22. c.Are there other grants “tied into” or being used as a match for this grant of which are matching funds for this grant? Nothing is “tied into” this grant, but the City previously received a grant to complete a scoping study (completed) and is currently working under another grant for design engineering. We also recently applied for a $300,000 Transportatino Alternatives grant through VTrans. None of these grants can be used as match for this grant. 5.From what budget line will match be paid, and is there unencumbered money to pay it? Match (cash contribution) will be paid from the stormwater utility budget. Specifically, it will be paid from line item 402-12-7100-80.00. We will be splitting project costs with the Town of Williston. 6. Is there a cost to the city upon grant conclusion, and if yes, please describe? No 7. Is grant for stand-alone project, and if no, how does grant fit into another project (describe in some detail)? The grant is for the construction of a new stream crossing, including pedestrian facilities, on Muddy Brook. It is a stand alone project. 8. Length of grant - will the grant cross fiscal year(s)? This grant will require work in FY21 and FY22. It will cross fiscal years. 9. Who will apply for grant (name/title)? Tom DiPietro, Deputy Director of Public Works 10. How much time will it take to complete grant application form? 2 hours 11. How likely is it that we will receive grant? Quite likely. We have a strong project that aligns with the goal of the grant. We have also received grants from this organization before and the project is a regional priority. 12. Who will manage (project manager) grant and grant paperwork if approved (if different person than who is filling out this form), what are any grant compliance requirements, how much time will this take and how is that time available? Are there funds available in the grant to pay for our administrative costs? Can in-kind service be used as part of the City match? Tom DiPietro will serve as the project manager for this grant. He will be supported by other Stormwater Utility staff (Dave Wheeler and Emmalee Cherington). This project needs to be completed regardless of whether or not we receive the grant, so the only additional work is related to grant management. We estimate this to be approximately 40 hours over the term of the grant. Time spent by City staff on administration could be used as match, but since the total project cost will be well in excess of our 20% required match we are not proposing to utilize our time as match in this instance 13. Describe grant payment process – method of cash flow: The City will complete work approved in the grant scope of work and request reimbursement from the Better Road Program. These reimbursements can occur as often as the City would like to request them. 14.Should a Council-appointed Committee, Board, or Commission review this request? The work proposed under this grant is typical of work completed by stormwater utility staff. For these reasons, a board or committee appointment seems unnecessary. 15.In terms of priority, with 5 being highest and 1 being lowest, please rate this grant in terms of how it fits into your primary mission as approved by City Council and current projects to complete that mission: 5. The culvert in this location failed during the Halloween storm causing a road closure. The City reopened the road utilizing temporary measures, but a long term solution needs to be put in place. There could be significant traffic and environmental impacts until such time as the new culvert is installed. Maintaining and replacing this type of infrastructure aligns with the Stormwater Utility’s mission. ___________________________________ _______________________________ Reviewed by Asst.

Roadway has steep slope with no ditch which is causing severe roadway erosion, which outlets into the Lamoille River): In 2017 there was a large sink hole located in the roadway, investigations determined that the existing 15- foot diameter corrugated metal culvert was failing due to corrosion at the invert resulting in localized buckling in multiple locations. The roadway connecting to Williston was reopened after a temporary bridge was installed. A large rain event on 10/31/19 completely washed out the failing culvert and threatened the temporary bridge abutments. The permanent crossing structure will provide solutions / treatments that will improve the water quality of Muddy Brook.

Environmental Concerns: Vermont Better Roads Grant Program All projects require a review of potential impacts by our environmental team. To expedite the review process, please check the boxes below that describe existing structures/conditions to be replaced/maintained (if any) and the project description that applies (if any). Please describe the project and how it will create a positive water quality benefit: The proposed project will be a permanent solution to the current temporary bridge, by replacing the failed and now washed out existing structure. The 120-foot long 33-foot span precast arch culvert will provide an additional foot beyond the bank-full width, while improving the environmental conditions to the greatest extent possible for the passage of aquatic organisms. The open-bottom structure allows for the natural stream bottom to continue through the crossing. The minimum 8-foot rise was selected to allow adequate clearance for debris passage during these larger events, that seem to continue more often. Please list any professionals or partners that assisted with planning this project: Hoyle, Tanner & Associates were contracted to complete a scoping study for the project. The scoping study included findings for historical & archaeological investigations by Hartgen Archaeological Associates Inc. It was determined that a Phase IB will be required. It is noted also in the scoping study a stream alterations individual permit will be required, we have meet with Chris Brunelle, River Manager Engineer, on site and he is willing to work with us on satisfying the states criteria. A wetland delineation and evaluation was performed by April Mouleart, Professional Wetland Specialist on 05/31/2018. A wetlands permit from the state will be required.

[maximum 20 points]: According to the REI Segment Compliance Map provided by Chittenden County Regional Planning Commission this segment is identified as 32,194.10 and is not listed as hydrologically connected. However, this road segment crosses over the stream (Muddy Brook), is curbed, and is drained via a storm drain that discharges to a ditch on the south side of the road. This ditch drains directly into Muddy Brook. The hydrologic connectedness of this segment may need to be re-evaluated and potentially revised. o Yes; the entire project is in connected segment(s) (20 points) o Partially; part(s) of the project are in connected segments (5-19 points) o No; this project is not in a connected segment (0-5 points) 4.Will the project result in full compliance of one or more segments in accordance with the Municipal Roads General Permit (MRGP)? [maximum 25 points] The MRGP outlets in South Burlington are currently being inspected and evaluated for compliance with the MRGP. CCRPC had a crew conducting these inspections this week (12/9/19 through 12/13/19) and we expect that the data will be updated in the near future. Therefore, while we can’t comment on the current compliance status of the segment, we are confident that the work we are proposing to complete will meet the MRGP standards. o All segments within the project will be in full compliance (25 points) o One or more segments will be in full compliance, with all other segments in partial compliance (11 – 24 points) o One or more segments will be a minimum of partial compliance (1- 10 points) o Project does not meet compliance or not applicable (does not have hydrologically connected segments) (0 points) 5.Is the project cost effective? [maximum 10 points] The recommended alternative meets the project purpose and need criteria of the scoping study. It provides a low maintenance, cost effective structure that will increase the hydraulic capacity at the crossing. This alternative allows for increased construction scheduling flexibility while marginally increasing environmental impacts and construction costs. o The cost of the project is low and the expected benefits are high (8-10 points) o The cost of the project is average and the expected benefits are average (5-7 points) o The cost of the project is high and the expected benefits are low (0-4 points) Vermont Better Roads Grant Program See Attachments ii Muddy Brook Culvert Replacement – STP MM18(3) Project Definition Report City of South Burlington, VT Town of Williston, VT Burlington City Council to be Alternative 3 (10’ Shared Use Path with 10’ Greenspace) as it provides the best user comfort, has relatively minor cost difference, and the wider greenspace allows for stormwater treatment, snow storage, and does not require catch basin structures in the roadway shoulder. Hoyle, Tanner recommends the design and construction of Structure Alternative 2 (Precast Concrete Arch) with Roadway Alternative C (10’ Shared Use Path with 10’ Greenspace). This alternative meets the project purpose and need and provides a low maintenance, cost effective structure, increases the hydraulic capacity at the crossing, provides safe bicycle and pedestrian facilities at the crossing, and provides increased construction scheduling flexibility while marginally increasing environmental impacts and construction costs. The total estimated cost of construction (including continency) is $1,810,000. Design Engineering and Resident Engineering fees during construction can be estimated at $190,000 for a budgetary total project cost estimate of $2,000,000 (presented in 2018 Dollars).

Kevin, we would like to request the approval of the City of South Burlington for the relocation of our Hannaford Supermarket & Pharmacy’s liquor license located at 218 Hannaford Drive to 935 Shelburne Road, Suite 300, in So. Burlington. Should the City grant approval, the grand re- opening of our new store would be scheduled for March 21, 2020, with the closing of our current store on March 20, 2020, at 6:00 pm. Should you have any questions or require any further information, I may be reached at either 207-885-3321 or jane.goulet@retailbusinessservices.com. Best regards, Jane Goulet Coord 1, Licensing I did not view this as a material change so I did not ask them to fill out a longer application. As this transfer is a di minimus issue I encourage your approval.
