PUBLIC WORKS, WATERWORKS AND SEWER:
As Director of Public Works and Superintendent of the Water and Sewer Department in the
Town of Manchester for a period of 8 1/2 years, Mr. Giles was responsible for planning,
coordinating and supervising the activities of a 160 person department that included
Highway, Sanitation, Cemetery, Park Building Inspection, Water, Sewer, and Engineering
divisions.
Mr. Giles was directly responsible for the successful completion of many capital
improvement projects including storm drainage ($2 million), major road reconstruction,
sanitary landfill expansion, a town—wide storm water management program, and a 200 acre
industrial park. In the water and sanitary sewer capital improvement budgets, he was
responsible for the purchase of a privately owned water system ($2+ million), a $20 million
water supply system improvement program (including a 6MGD treatment plant), the
construction of 37,000 feet of sanitary sewers, and a sanitary sewerage facilities plan that
resulted in the construction of over $30 million of improvements to a 8.25 MGD advanced
waste treatment plan.

Mr. Giles was responsible for review of all subdivision and other land development plans
and supervised the enforcement of public improvement specifications. A Highway Permit
Manual he developed has been used and copied by other municipalities across the country.
He was one of the first DPW's in the state to introduce infra—red bituminous pavement
repair, a method that has since been adopted by many towns in the state.
CONSTRUCTION:
Mr. Giles joined Fuss & O'Neill in 1986 after 5 years of extensive experience as a general
contractor in commercial construction,including design—build projects and land development.
As project manager for many construction projects, both private and public, he has
performed every task necessary to complete a project including: client relations, bid take—off
and estimating, contract negotiation, subcontract negotiation and coordination, material
ordering, and billing. He has designed projects, prepared the required municipal applications
and represented clients before planning & zoning commissions. His construction and land
development experience gives him the perspective of a contractor/developer and assures the
practicality and cost effectiveness of his design.
SITE DEVELOPMENT AND DESIGN:
Since joining Fuss & O'Neill, Inc. as an Associate in 1986, Mr. Giles has been a Project
Engineer or Project Manager on many commercial development projects, primarily in the
350 acre Buckland Hills mixed use development in Manchester. Projects in this area in
which he was involved included a 1,000,000 + square foot regional mall, a 1,000 unit
housing complex, a 20 unit single family subdivision, a 150 room hotel, and three major
wholesale facilities totalling more than 330,000 square feet.
Mr. Giles' knowledge of municipal and state procedures, his extensive public works,
waterworks and sanitary sewerage experience, his experience as a general contractor, and his
commitment to practical solutions assures his clients of the most cost—effective designs.

Report of Findings
To,,tin of !Manchester
Euckland Hills nixed-Use Revision
STC No. 076-9301-01
Site Description :
The Buckland Hills Ilixed-Use Development is located on the east side
of Buckland Street in the Town of Manchester. As approved in Certificate No. 874-D,
the development was to consist of 2,427 ,000 sq.ft. of various retail , office
and housing and include 7 ,500 parking spaces.
The developer is now requesting approval to increase the retail development
by 127,500 sq.ft. , while reducing the office development by 195,000 sq.ft.
The entire development, as now approved, will consist of 2,360,300 sq.ft. and
7,500 parking spaces.
Generated Traffic:
The proposed change in usage is expected to decrease the number of
trips by 166 during the a.m. peak hour (164 entering, 2 exiting) . The change
in usage, however, will generate an additional 99 trips during the p.m. peak
hour and 382 trips during the Saturday peak hour (190 entering and 192 exiting).
The submitted volumes have been reviewed and approved by the Department' s
Bureau of Policy and Planning.
Proposed Projects by the Department of Transportation:
State Project 132-100 will reconstruct Buckland Road from the Manchester
Town Line northerly to Route 30 in South Windsor.
The project has been awarded and construction is expected to begin
in the spring.
Division of Traffic Engineering's Recommended Improvements:
1. That the applicant overlay a portion of the I-84 eastbound off-ramp
to Buckland Street in order to extend the existing eastbound right-turn
lane.
Applicant's Recommended Improvements:
1. That the I-84 eastbound off-ramp to Buckland Street be overlaid to
provide a 1,500 foot exclusive eastbound right-turn lane.
Report of Findings Continued -2- "?anchester
Department of Transportation' s Observations and Concerns:
Based on field observations, it is common for queues on the I-84 eastbound
off-ramp to Buckland Street to extend ,as much as 1,500 feet during the Saturday
peak hour. As a result, many motorists illegally travel in the paved shoulder
to reach the exclusive right-turn lane. Since the proposed change in usage
is expected to generate additional traffic on the off-ramp, it is recommended
that a portion of the off-ramp be overlaid in order to extend the existing eastbound
right-turn lane.
Initially, the Department recommended that three 12-foot lanes and
at least two-foot shoulders be provided in the area of the overlay. The applicant' s
engineer has proposed to overlay a portion of the off-ramp to extend the exclusive
right-turn lane by 1,100 feet for a total of a 1,500-foot right-turn lane.
They did note, however, that only 11-foot lanes with a three-foot left shoulder
and a two-foot right shoulder could be provided, because the off-ramp was narrower
farther to the west. In order to provide the recommended lane widths and shoulder
widths, it would be necessary to widen the ramp by four feet requiring significant
grading as well as the relocation of several drainage structures. Since the
cost of the widening would be significant, the developer felt that they would
be unable to extend the ramp by 1,100 feet. The Division of Traffic Engineering
did review the applicant's proposal for the narrower lanes and it was found
to be acceptable.
The submitted plan indicates that the overlay on the ramp will be
one-inch. The actual depth of the overlay will be determined at the permit
stage. The applicant's engineer was contacted and informed of this and did
not object.

RE: Zone Change Application
Manchester I-84 Associates
and John Finguerra
Buckland Road, South Windsor
Our File: 94009
Dear Ms. Banach:
We have prepared this letter to address the traffic impact
associated with the proposed zone change from rural residence
(RR) to restricted commercial (RC) for the above-reference
parcel.
This parcel contains approximately one acre of land contiguous to
other properties of Manchester I-84 Associates and John Finguerra
in the Town of Manchester, collectively known as the Buckland
Hills mixed use development. The total development comprises
approximately 151 acres. The subject parcel is proposed to be
developed in conjunction with the development of that portion of
land in Manchester known as "Land Use Area C" . All traffic
associated with the development of the subject parcel will
utilize the "Land Use Area C" access to Buckland Hills Drive in
the Town of Manchester.
The development potential of "Land Use Area C" is for retail
development, of which approximately 8,000 sf would physically be
within the Town of South Windsor. It is anticipated that traffic
generated by the development of the subject parcel would travel
through "Land Use Area C to Buckland Hills drive, opposite the
Home Depot entrance, at a proposed multi-phase signalized
intersection. The signal operation has been reviewed by both the
Town of Manchester and the State of Connecticut and found to be
satisfactory to accommodate the anticipated traffic volumes at
this location. As part of the Town of Manchester and STC
Certificate approvals, Buckland Hills Drive will be widened to
accommodate turn lanes into "land Use Area C" and into Home
Depot.
It is our professional opinion that the traffic that could be
generated by the subject parcel as a result of the proposed zone
change can adequately be accommodated by the improvements already
planned in the Town of Manchester. The change in zone will not
result in any significant increase in the traffic generation of
the subject parcel.

RE: Zone Change Application

Our File: 94010
Dear Ms. Banach:
Following our telephone conversation, we are submitting
additional information relative to the traffic impact of
the above referenced zone change. This information
consists mainly of back-up materials to support our
February 9, 1994 letter to you.
The original traffic report was completed for the entire
Buckland Hills development and submitted to the State
Traffic Commission (STC) for review, resulting in the
issuance of Certificate No. 874 in October, 1988. As the
individual sites were developed, the uses were refined and
several modifications to the certificates were made. The
most recent modification was issued in March 1993 (STC
Certificate No. 874 E) .
The STC approval for the entire Buckland Hills development
site includes a total traffic generation of approximately
3060 vehicle-trips during the PM peak hour and 3771
vehicle-trips during the Saturday peak hour, of which
approximately 170 vehicle-trips during the PM peak hour and
250 vehicle-trips during the Saturday peak would be
expected to visit "Land Use Area C" . It is anticipated
that only 27 vehicle-trips during the PM peak hour and 36
vehicle-trips during the Saturday peak hour would be
associated with the 8000 s.f. of development within the
Town of South Windsor.
Any traffic that may be associated with development on the
subject parcel in South Windsor is included in the
development approved in the existing STC certificate.
Those approvals notwithstanding, it is our professional
opinion that any traffic associated with this zone change
traffic studies traffic engineering traffic planning

is easily accommodated by the approved intersection
improvements associated with the Buckland Hills
development. In fact, these improvements will improve
operating conditions and lessen congestion in the streets
surrounding the subject site.

MANCHESTER I-84 ASSOCIATES ZONE CHANGE
PH 2-22-94
1 . Request for a zone change for one acre of property from AA-
30 to Restricted Commercial . The property has about 115
feet of frontage on Buckland Road; however, it is not
accessible from Buckland Road due to severe grade change.
The minimum lot size for the RC zone is three-fourths of an
acre, minimum frontage requirement is 100 feet. This
property is surrounded by Designed Commercial zoning on the
north and east in South Windsor, and by commercial zoning
to the south in Manchester. There is residential zoning to
the west across Buckland Road in South Windsor, and the RC
zone buffer requirements would apply along the Buckland
Road frontage. As currently zoned, this property is an
isolated piece of residential property, and I would not
anticipate it would have any feasible residential use.
2 . I have received a traffic report from the applicant' s
traffic engineer. While the subject property is part of
the much larger mixed use property surrounding the mall, it
is important to focus on the impact of the one acre under
discussion. That one acre is estimated to generate 27 new
trips during the PM peak hour and 36 new trips during the
Saturday peak hour. Those numbers translate into 14
vehicles during the PM peak hour, and 18 vehicles during
the Saturday peak hour, as one trip is either the entering
or the exiting movement, and each vehicle must make two
trips to get into and out of a site. /This newly-generated
traffic from the South Windsor site is too small to make
any kind of impact on South Windsor roadways . This site
will not have an entrance onto Buckland Road. The
reconstruction of Buckland Road is scheduled to be
completed in the summer of 1994 .
3 . Permitted uses in the RC zone include offices, retail,
restaurants, hotels and mortuaries . Special permit uses
include day care and Senior Residence Developments .
4 . The current Town Plan of Development shows this property
remaining as residential; however, the draft Town Plan
update shows it as part of the Gateway Development Area.
As currently drafted, the Gateway Development Areas are
intended for high-quality business development, including
retail, office, hotel/conference center.
5 . The Town wetlands map does not show any regulated wetlands
on this property.
6 . It has been indicated that there will be a building
constructed partially in South Windsor, partially in
Manchester. Our assessor has indicated that the assessment
would be a prorated assessment based on the percentage of
the building and the percentage of the site that is in
South Windsor.
7 . One issue I would like to raise early in this process is
that of grading and working with the land. This issue is
probably best characterized by the differences between the
Musumano general plan on the property directly north of the
subject property, and the type of grading and topography
alteration that has occurred along Buckland Road on the
Manchester side of the Town line. The development plan for
the Musumano property included terracing of the site up the
hillside, rather than massive filling or removal of the
hillside, whereas development on the Manchester side has
included massive cutting and filling, with the associated
retaining walls . While the topography of the site will no
doubt require some regrading, we suggest that the applicant
show sensitivity to working with the land in South Windsor.
8 . The Capitol Region Council of Governments has reviewed this
zone change request and finds no apparent conflict with
regional plans and policies or the concerns of neighboring
towns .

ITEM: Public Hearing
1 . Appl #94 02P, Manchester I-84 Associated Limited Partnership -
Zone Change of 1 + acre from AA-30 to RC for property located on
the easterly side of Buckland Road at the Manchester Town Line
Attorney Lawrence Rubinow, representing the applicant, stated that
the site is surrounded by commercial zoned property in South Windsor
and Manchester. The applicant owns approximately six acres to the
south of this site therefore his request for a zone change in South
Windsor for this parcel of land. Rubinow submitted Statements of
Qualifications for Alan F. Lamson and Jay J. Giles, P.E. (Exhibit A)
Alan Lamson, of Frazier Lamson & Budlong, P.C. and representing the
applicant, stated that the RC zoning for this particular piece of
property falls within the criteria of zoning for Buckland Road as
show in the Town Plan of Development. This acre lot, as it is zoned
presently, falls out of sync with surrounding properties .
Jay Giles, of Fuss & O'Neill, Inc. and representing the applicant,
stated that the site is situated on a hillside and is not within the
flood zone. There are no wetlands on the site and utilities are
available from Buckland Road or Buckland Street in Manchester.
Drainage from the site flows to the west and to the existing system
in Buckland Road. Drainage continues down Buckland Street in
Manchester to the existing system which runs under Buckland Hills
Drive. The proposed drainage system will decrease the drainage into
Buckland Road. Giles submitted his report. (Exhibit B)
Rubinow noted that Steve Mitchell, of F. S. Hesketh & Assoc, had done
the traffic report for this site and all requirements have been
satisfied per the Zoning Regulations .
Lipe provided the following planning report for the Commission.
1 . Request for a zone change for one acre of property from AA-30 to
Restricted Commercial . The property has about 115 feet of

sensitivity to working with the land in South Windsor.
8 . The Capitol Region Council of Governments has reviewed this zone
change request and finds no apparent conflict with regional plans
and policies or the concerns of neighboring towns .
There was no report from the Engineering Department at this time.
Murrin asked for input from the public to which William Krawski of
130 Buckland Road responded.
Krawski had concerns about the natural brownstone quarry that is
located in the vicinity. He suggested that any natural resource in
South Windsor should be used in the best feasible way.
Discussion ensued among the Commissioners with the following comments
and concerns :
- opposition to any access for this site from Buckland Road
- proposals for this site
- traffic and the criteria used for the study
- access from Buckland Hills Drive
- grading of the site
- submitted plans had wrong location of Ridge Road and did not show
the Smith Street cul-de-sac
Replies to the above comments and concerns:
- traffic attracted to the site determines the traffic trips
- this site will be encompassed with land from Manchester for
development
- Attorney Rubinow would not respond to access from Buckland Hills
Drive because the question was inappropriate
- RC zoning is the only appropriate zoning for this parcel
- the applicant will show sensitivity with working with the land in
South Windsor in accordance with good engineering principles
Murrin closed the public hearing at 8 :50 p.m.
2 . Appl #94-03P, Surinder S . & Gurdeep K. Bains - Special Exception
to Article 4 . 7 of the Zoning Regulations to create an accessory
apartment at 18 Natsisky Farm Road, A-30 zone
Bains said that the accessory apartment is being created for his
daughter and her children. Their first attempt to the Planning &
Zoning Commission was denied December 8, 1993 . The two reasons for
denial were 1 ) since the existing house is located in an open space
subdivision the maximum accessory apartment size should be observed
and 2 ) the proposed kitchen should be connected to the heated section
of the house. Both of these concerns have been met in this
application.

FLOODING
The site is situated on a hillside with very few adjoining areas at higher
elevations, and is not within the 100-year flood line. The land by its
topography is secured from flooding and other dangers.
DRAINAGE
Presently,this parcel drains to the drainage system located in Buckland Road,
which system discharges to the Buggie Stowe detention basin in Manchester.
Developed as a part of the adjacent six-acre parcel in Manchester, the
pavement and/or road areas will be tied into a proposed drainage system
that outlets to an intermittent stream south of Buckland Hills Drive in
Manchester. As a result of the proposed drainage system, there will be a
small decrease in the existing runoff to Buckland Road in South Windsor.
WATER, SEWER, AND OTHER UTILITIES
Water is available from the Connecticut Water Company in Buckland Road
at its intersection with Smith Street. Sewer service will be supplied from
facilities located in Buckland Hills Drive in Manchester, and sewage will flow
to South Windsor's system via the Town of Manchester's system in Buckland
Hills Drive and Pleasant Valley Road. Other public utilities such as gas,
phone and electricity are available in the area.
WETLANDS
There are no designated wetlands on this site, and the proposed zone change
will have no affect on any wetlands in the area.

Dear Attorney Rubinow:
re: Appl . #94-02P, Manchester I-84 Associates Limited Partnership
Zone Change
Please be advised that the Planning & Zoning Commission voted on
March 22, 1994 to approve the above-referenced application for a Zone
Change from AA-30 to RC on approximately one ( 1 ) acre of land located
on the east side of Buckland Road at the Manchester Town Line as
shown on plans prepared by Fuss & O'Neill, Inc. , Project 86-481 and
dated December 21, 1994 .
Within ninety days (by June 20, 1994 ) a zone change map ( 1" = 401 )
with an A-2 certification must be filed, showing all boundary lines
and the acreage of the land where the zone change was granted. The
map shall be drawn in accordance with the rules and regulations of
the State Board of Registration for Professional Engineers and Land
Surveyors, and shall be stamped and signed by a Registered Land
Surveyor. The zone change map must be submitted on black and white
mylars, with this approval letter thereon, together with three
blueprint copies of the Zone Change. After the mylars have been
stamped and signed by the Commission, they will be returned to you
for filing in the Town Clerk's Office.
The effective date of the Zone Change is the date the mylar is filed
in the Town Clerk's Office.
