the plan, using passive solar energy techniques
which would not significantly increase the cost of

techniques mean site design techniques which
maximize solar heat gain, minimize heat loss and
provide thermal storage within a building during
the heating season and minimize heat gain and

building (Cape) ; a one-story building could be
placed next to the Cape, but not next to the two-
story building unless sufficient setback is
allowed to make the difference in heights
inconsequential.
Noise Control : Each common wall , floor and
ceiling between dwelling units and corridors,
lobbies and other public areas, and an exterior
wall of a dwelling unit, shall be designed and
constructed to minimize the transmission of noise.
Shock Mounting: When installed in a two-family

handicapped, including wheelchair access, curb
cuts and curb inclines for sidewalks, dwelling
units expressly designed for the handicapped
building access, parking space location and other
architectural treatments, shall be in accordance
with the State of Connecticut Basic Building Code,
and other applicable rules and laws. The
Commission may modify the application and plans to
ensure that special needs of handicapped residents
are met.
Fire Safety: The development shall be designed to
meet minimum standards for fire safety. Each
dwelling unit shall contain a smoke alarm. Fire
hydrants and the water system shall be installed
in accordance with the requirements of the
Commission and Fire Marshal . Unobstructed
emergency vehicle access shall comply with all
applicable codes and the requirements of the Chief
of Police and Fire Marshal, and be approved by the
Commission.
Building Insulation: Each building containing
dwelling units shall be insulated in the uppermost
roof/ceiling with a minimum of nine (9) inches of
Fiberglas bat insulation or insulation of
equivalent "R" value, and shall be insulated in
the exterior walls to the full framing thickness .
Insulation shall also be provided in common walls
and floors/ceilings between dwelling units and
between dwelling units and common or public areas.

not be installed unless located in an
inconspicuous area and properly screened.

Bus Shelters : In the event regular public
passenger transportation will be available to
residents of the development, a shelter shall be
provided by the developer at a location convenient
to the residents and readily serviceable by the
passenger transportation operator. The design and
material composition of shelter shall be approved
by the Commission. This bus shelter may be the
same shelter as the school bus shelter described
below.
Interior Shelter: A shelter area contained within
a building accessible and convenient to all
residents of the development and readily
serviceable by the passenger transportation
operator, such as a community building, may be
substituted for a free standing structure if
approved by the Commission.
School Bus Shelter: An adequate bus shelter for
school children shall be provided.
Storage: In addition to closets and similar
inside storage, each dwelling unit shall have
storage area of a minimum of sixty (60) square
feet. All such storage areas shall be located
either 'in a basement with exterior entrance or in
a garage.

shall in no case be less than 1000' square feet. A
variety of sizes are desirable.
Two family dwelling. The size of two-family buildings

feet. The duplexes should have the appearance of one-
family buildings and be in a variety of sizes.
Multi-family dwelling. See requirements of Section 4 .6

dwelling unit types. Less than forty percent (40%) of
the dwelling units shall be efficiency and one bedroom
units. No more than thirty percent (30%) shall have

TOWN PLANNING .AND ZONING COMMISSION _ REPORT ON ZONING REFERRAL
TOWN OF SOUTH WINDSOR J #89/112
COMMISSIONERS:
Receipt is acknowledged of the above-nuribered referral. Nctice of this
proposal was transmitted to the Planning Division of the Capitol Region
Council of Governments under the provisions of Section 8-3(b) of the
Connecticut General Statutes, as amended.
The referral involves proposed changes to Zoning Regulations, Sections 4.21 -
Designed Residence Zone (DRZ) . (Sections 4.21- 4.21.5.d.2) . If you would
like a copy of these changes, please contact Kelly.
Comments:
The staff of the Regional Planning Commission of the Capitol Region Council of
Governments has reviewed this referral and finds no apparent conflict with
regional plans and policies or the concerns of neighboring towns.
General Observations:
• A major CRCOG Housing Availability Goal stated in the 1988 Regional Plan is
"To increase the range and choice of housing for persons of all incomes and
all ages, but especially for those who have had the least choice, according to
their locational preference." Policies related to this key Housing
Availability Goal, and in particular to this zoning proposal, state that the
Agency:
i) Encourage local use of innovative zoning technicraes to reduce
housing costs (also Land Use Policy #10) .
6) Encourage municipalities to develop programs and policies which will
increase opportunities for low and moderate income housing in all
municipalities of the Region.
The proposed zoning amendment purports to promote these goals by providing,
within the DRZ, a range of housing types (one, two and multi units) . It
speaks of future developments which will be "well planned, functional and
aesthetically pleasing. . .". Designs will be compatible with abutting zones
and uses "and these regulations will" protect environmentally sensitive areas
of town that are unprotected through other means". The proposed regulation
also states that its purpose is " to increase the supply of affordable
housing" and contains some reasonable provisions which should be evaluated and
perhaps expanded (Sections 4.21.3.2.2) for hopeful implementation in the
future if the proposal is adopted. Since a definition of "affordable" is not
A VOLUNTARY COUNCIL OF GOVERNMENTS FORMED TO INITIATE AND IMPLEMENT
REGIONAL PROGRAMS OF BENEFIT TO THE TOWNS AND THE REGION. _
contained within the proposal, a copy of the Statutory Definition is enclosed
for reference (CGS 88-203) . Also, attached for review is a copy of Public Act
88-338 (CGS Sec. 8.2g) which provides the means for zoning commissions to
authorize special exemptions from zoning density limits for affordable housing
construction.
A perusal of the present Zoning Regulation indicates the existence of a DR
A-15 Zone. CRCOG files also show that a zoning referral (#88/157) submitted
about a year ago, proposed modifications of a very substantive nature to this
zone. Advisory comments were offered but CRCOG has no indication that the
proposal was adopted or heard at public hearing. It would be appropriate if
this petitioned proposal was evaluated and related to the existing regulation
and the prior draft proposal. This would provide an opportunity to intermesh
and incorporate all the concepts/proposals into a comprehensive package which
would effectively achieve the goals enunciated in the statement of purpose
within this zoning referral.
Questions concerning this referral should be directed to Wil Maxwell.
In accordance with our procedures this letter will constitute final CRCOG
action on this referral. The public hearing date is scheduled for 9/5/89.
