Re: Findings of Fact, application of Garland and Helen Withers
for subdivision of approximately 42,700 square feet of land into
two (2) lots of 15,700 square feet and 29,000 square feet, 265
Kirby Road.
On the 6th of August 1991, the South Burlington Planning Commis-
sion approved the request of Garland and Helen Withers for pre-
liminary plat approval under Section 203 of the South Burlington
Subdivision Regulations based on the following findings:
1. This project consists of the subdivision of a one (1) acre
lot into a 0.36 acre lot (lot #1) and a 0.62 acre lot (lot #2).
Lot #1 has frontage on Kirby Road while lot #2 has no frontage
and will be served by a private r.o.w. The property is presently
developed with a single-family dwelling and several accessory
buildings. It is proposed that these buildings will be razed.
2. This property is located in the R4 zone and is bounded on the
east by a single-family dwelling, on the south by undeveloped
land with a ravine, on the west by a single-family residences on
Picard Circle and a residence at 261 Kirby Road, and on the north
by Kirby Road.
3. Access: Each lot is proposed to have its own curb cut, 30
feet apart. Since lot #2 has no frontage, access is proposed to
be via a 40 foot wide r.o.w. along the westerly property line.
Section 19.20 allows the Planing Commission to approve subdivi-
sions which create lots with no frontage on a public street as
long as access to such a street is provided by a permanent ease-
ment of at least 20 feet.
4. Sewer: A sewer allocation of 450 gpd will be required for
the new lot. The applicant will be required to pay the $2.50 per
gallon fee prior to issuance of a zoning permit.
5. Recreation fee: The applicant will be required to pay the
$200 per unit recreation fee for the new lot prior to issuance of
a zoning permit.
6. Other: There is an existing shed on lot 1 which will not
meet the setback requirement from the proposed subdivision line.
