Application for a modification to the site plan and special exception that were approved for this project in 1991 for a property located on the westerly side of John Fitch Boulevard, northerly of Kimberly Drive, DRZ. 2. The original approval was for 30 units with a daycare center including an apartment. The applicant is proposing to eliminate the daycare and apartment and in its place construct two additional units. 3. Phase I of this development is currently under construction. Six of the units are being dedicated to the Town's Moderate Price Housing Program. The addition of two units will not require any additional units needing to be dedicated. It appears that all zoning requirements have been met. 4. There are regulated wetlands in the vicinity of these two additional units, however, there is currently a wetlands permit in place and this change will not increase the impact on the wetlands, therefore no IWA/CC action is required. 5. Public water and sewer currently service the site from Route 5. WPCA approval will be required for the extension of the sewer to service these two units. 6. The original road layout had a turnaround area for the proposed daycare. Portion os this turnaround will be removed and the driveways for the units will come off of that. This turnaround is required to remain because that is how the applicant is meeting the 600 foot cul de sac length. The road is going to be a Town road when the project is completed. 7. The applicant has indicated that the landscaping will be consistent with the rest of the development. If this application is approved, the Planning Department is requesting that the zoning data table for the entire development shown on the map. Also, the landscaping plan on file should be modified show plantings around the two additional units. �5. a n C 1 FITCH MEADOW SITE AND SPECIAL EXCEPTION 1 . This is an application for a Special Exception to section 4 .5 .5 .b (formerly 4 . 11 .5 .b) and site plan of development for the newly created DRZ zone on 14 . 96 ac. parcel of land located on the westerly side of John Fitch Boulevard, northerly of Kimberly Drive, DRZ zone. The zone change and general plan of development was approved 2/26/91 . 2 . The applicant is proposing 31 single famiKay ousing units; and one apartment to be located over the care center. The proposal calls for 20% of the units to be affordable- totalling six units . These units will be sold and resold according to the guidelines which were adopted by the Town Council. The units will count towards South Windsor's 5 year goal of producing 143 units per the capitol region Fair Housing Compact for Affordable Housing. 3 . The net buildable acreage is 11 . 36 and the density for the project is 2 . 8 . Our regulations allow up to 4 units per acre with 20% affordable housing. 4 . The applicant is also proposing a day care approximately 2, 750 sq ft which will have one apartment on the second floor. There are 11 parking spaces required which have been provided in the front of the daycare. There is also adequate room for a bus turnaround at this location. A proposed play area in the rear of the daycare appears to be 40 feet from the closest unit. Screening has been provided between the day care and the first unit. 5 . The number of parking spaces r quired is 2 1/2 sp/unit or 80 spaces for the dwelling units in addition to the 11 required for the daycare. In addition, there are four 10 X 30 spaces set aside for recreational vehicles which is shown enclosed by a wooden fence and screened with . evergreens and deciduous trees . This area has been relocated from the original general plan to a location along the main drive. 6 . The applicant is proposing passive recreation to meet the recreation requirement. Our regulations require either 600 sq ft of developed recreation area per unit-- about 1/2 acre for this application-- or 3600 square feet of undeveloped recreation area per unit-- or about 2 .4 acres. .�.

After discussing this location with the applicant, he has agreed that. -a-bett-�e -glace-to-pitt this path may be along the driveway to the detention basin coming off of the main road. 7 . Impervious coverage for the site is 15%; '30% allowed. The proposed building heights do not exceed the 30 ft maximum. It appears that all other zoning regulations have been met. There are regulated '-wetlands and an intermittent gas watercourse on t-he site. The application has been submitted to tie IWA/CC and will be heard by the Commission on"Monday,�eptember 16 . 9 . Public water and sewer are available to the site from Rte 5 . WPCA approval is required. Community Systems requirements of P.A. 83-133 must be satisfied. 10 . Fred Shaw, Ass't public Works Director has stated for the purpose of refuse and recyclable collection property owners must grant to the Town, its agents and employees the right to enter and reenter harmless from any and all liabilities that may occur with respect to refuse and recyclable collection. 11 . The traffic pattern for the site is as two way road that terminates in a cul de sac. The driveways are off of the :rain road and there are several drives that serve more than one unit. Because this drive comes out onto a state road, the curb cut will be subject to DOT review and approval. The applicant has provided P provisions for a left hand turn land for traffic heading northbound on Route 5 . 12 . A bus shelter has been provided at the entrance of the development. 13 . Sidewalks are proposed to be constructed along one side of the main interior road. 14 . There is a good portion of this site which is wooded.

The buffer plantings consisting of norway spruce, eastern white pines and maples will interspersed among trees that are to be saved. (A shematic of the buffer in 5 years and at maturity have been shown on the plans . ) A six foot fence is. shown at the property corner in the area of the retention basin to ensure that the screening requirement is met in this area as discussed during the general plan application. 15 . The landscaping for the interior of the site shows the streets lined with red oaks and red maples . Typical planting have been provided for each of the unit types to include various types of shrubs around the foundations . 2 - - 1 /J 16 . The houses Lposed for this site include y9 -3 bedroom units and- 3 bedroom units ranging in size from 1150 to 1400 square feet. The affordable units are interspersed in size and location.

There are some items that need to be worked out to make the detention basin fully accessible from Maneely's parking lot; these items are listed on the attachment from Mel Stead, Superintendent of Streets. Also, instead of dimensioning an easement, we suggest that a "right to access"format be used. (It is unlikely that Town trucks and equipment accessing the basin would be able to stay within the confines of a dimensioned easement.)A hold harmless agreement would also be needed.

Pavement extends out to rear property line and to the left to rear of building. ■ There is a concrete dumpster pad with dumpster at southwest corner of lot. ■ There is an earth berm with spruce plantings between the pavement and the detention pond. This adds 3 or 4 feet to the slope down to the flowline of the splash pads. ■ Berm would have to be negotiated in 2 places, as equipment travel would not be possible along the edge of pond parallel with parking area. ■ Access along the west property line on Fitch Meadow property is possible but two 6-inch diameter trees would have to be removed (orange ribbons on them). One dead 16"dia. tree needs to be removed; one 4" dia. tree needs to be removed. ■ Even with trees removed, access would be narrow but passable to get to outlet structure. ■ The access to outlet structure should have the loam removed, gravel placed then reloamed and seeded.

Banach, Director of Planning JUN so 19%4 Town of South Windsor 1540 Sullivan Avenue South Windsor, Ct. 06074 Sam W= m" K"• FITCH MEADOW ROUTE 5, SOUTH WINDSOR MODERATE HOUSING PROGRAM We are becoming increasingly concerned about our inability to comply with the requirements of the Moderate Housing Program. The Fitch Meadow project was set up originally with a requirement to include six Moderate Housing units. We were successful in selling two units in Phase 1 to buyers that qualified under the program guidelines. With the exception of these two units, we have not been able to arouse any interest from over one hundred potential buyers.. We agree that the program had tremendous value and necessity at the time it was introduced. Real estate prices were at an all time high and builders could afford to offer sizable reductions in price to approved buyers under the program. Buyers did not worry about the negatives because it was the only way they were going to be able to purchase a new home. Those conditions do not exist in todays real estate market and buyers see no reason to take on the very real encumbrances of the program when they do not have to in order to buy a house. Please consider the following points that summarize almost two years of unsuccessful effort to comply with the program: • The program allows for the sale of three bedroom homes at a maximum price of$159,000. We have sold 20 houses at prices ranging from $100,000 to $134,900. Every house has been $24,000 to $59,000 below that maximum figure. If the primary objective of the program was to give buyer an opportunity to buy within the price structure of the program, it could be said that we are selling 100% within the guidelines, not 20%. • When we are selling houses at $100,000 to $134,900 it is impossible to offer a reduction in price that makes it irresistible regardless of the negatives. We are currently offering a $6,000 reduction in price on any house sold under the program. • Buyers will not accept the requirement that all future buyers must qualify under the plan. On a resale, the owner must find someone that likes the house, accepts the price, accepts the neighborhood and also qualifies. That buyer may never be found and the house may remain on the market as unsaleable. • Most important, because prices are so low buyers do not need the program. • Even if a buyer is interested, they may not qualify because of salary or assets. ��t `�ererztuve 55 Sandra Drive, South Windsor, CT 06074 528-8826 or 644-2815 Fax: 644-7328 Article VII of the program states that the program may be amended or terminated at any time by the Town Council. We are not recommending that the program be canceled. However, in the best interest of the people that the program is intended to serve; there should be a way of interpreting the plan based on the availability of housing within the program pricing structure or have a moratorium on the plan until economic conditions require that it be activated to provide moderate priced housing. One possible interpretation could be to exempt any project where every house is being sold below the guideline of two and one half times the medium income for a family of five. We have asked our Realtor, Cile Decker Associates, to provide us with information as to why they have not been able to sell the number of houses required under the plan. We are attaching a memo from Cile Decker dated June 25, 1998 for your review. Several of our buyers have stated that they did not think it was possible to purchase a house of the quality we are offering in a neighborhood like Fitch Meadow for such a low price. These comments confirm that we are providing an opportunity for people with limited financial means to purchase a new home. We are proud of what we have been able to provide and we need a common sense evaluation by the Town on what can be done regarding the Moderate Housing program so that we can complete a project that has already provided housing for numerous borderline buyers. We are prepared and willing to meet at any level that is appropriate to resolve this issue. Thank you for your time and attention to this request. Bry n H. Marsh Partner 1741 ELLINGTONROADCIIpE( KER SOUTH ,CT ASSOCIATES BUS.(860)644-4701 06074 RESIDENTIAL REAL ESTATE FAX(860)644-8670 MEMO TO: Bryan Marsh FROM: Cile Decker SUBJECT: MODERATE HOUSING AT FITCH MEADOW DATE: June 25, 1998 As the party responsible for the marketing of the Fitch Meadow subdivision and having a good understanding of the Town of South Windsor's requirements regarding compliance with the existing Moderate Housing regulations, I feel that I must share with you my observations and my concerns. We find that the buyers for Fitch Meadow are reluctant to pursue purchasing under the Moderate Housing Program for the following reasons: • It is very difficult for most to meet the guidelines due to the required income restrictions and asset limitations. • The property prices in the subdivision all fall below those required for Moderate Housing when the plan was put into place. Most people do not wish to consider an affiliation with Fitch Meadow as a Moderate Housing connection, but rather as a normal purchase. • The fact that the properties must remain in the program even upon resale will greatly limit any current buyers abilities to market homes for resale, since subsequent buyer's must meet current guidelines. • All owners must be occupants of the units they purchase, thereby eliminating the ability to rent, if necessary, due to unforeseen circumstances. • The $6000.00 reduction incentive is very substantial but, still, buyers are uncomfortable with the Moderate Housing Guidelines and tend not to take advantage of the opportunity. An Independently Owned and Operated Member of Coldwell Banker Residential Affiliates,Inc. -2- The program was initiated several years ago when prices of residential homes were escalating in excess of 1 1/2% per month. It was virtually impossible to purchase a home for less than $150,000 in South Windsor. Currently, there are many residential properties being offered in a much lower price range, some below $100,000. The need for such a program has greatly diminished and the potential participants are difficult to attract. I have advertised Moderate Housing opportunities at Fitch Meadow in the newspapers and have received no response. We have offered Moderate Housing opportunities at our weekly "Sunday Open House" held at the property and find them to be less than attractive to buyers. My concern is that, at Fitch Meadow, we must sell another four units under this program. I know that this will be very difficult to accomplish. I feel that the Town of South Windsor should consider some adjustments to the program. I understand the ramifications of the Housing Compact that this community has entered into, along with other communities, committing to the Moderate Price Housing Program. The program filled many needs years ago when it was implemented. Economic conditions have modified substantially since that time and certainly the "Housing Market" has endured and survived very significant changes. I believe these facts indicate an urgent need to review the program as it currently exists and to seek such appropriate modifications that would be beneficial to all parties. At least an effort should be made with significant persistence! Change is inevitable, and programs must be reviewed in order to assure that they continually meet the needs of those for whom they were created. KIMBERLEE J.

I have been recently informed that the owners/association of the Fitch Meadow Development plan to put the entrance to a walking trail directly across my back yard. It is a few short feet between the rear of my house and this proposed trail entrance. The association's representative informed me that I signed something in my homeowner's book when I bought the house that said it was to be. I can find no such document or verbiage in my book. I have twice written the Developers ( C & C)and, while I have received a reply, I am not satisfied in the least. I respectfully request that the powers that be in the government of the town of South Windsor re-examine this proposed walking trail entrance's location. I find it hard to believe that it would be an "approved" location for such, especially when alternatives are readily available nearby. I am also wondering if it would be possible to halt the construction of this trail entrance until the matter is thoroughly investigated. Thank you, jimber�lee J.

I must, however, voice my protest against the walking trail entrance. Have you actually seen, in person, where that is planned to go? It is dreadful! Cannot this be moved to the RV parking area ... or somewhere not to infringe on anyone's privacy? I saw the petition, everyone said "yes" to it, but as I recall, when a gazebo was planned at the other end of the street, the resident whose privacy would have been compromised were very vocal, and everyone else supported their rights as such. Please reconsider where this entry point will be, and let me know you thoughts. I am prepared to take further steps, if necessary, to block this action. Best regards, Kimberlee J.

Austin I 1 Fitch Meadow Lane South Windsor, Ct. 06074 WALKING TRAIL ENTRANCE We have received your letter of May 19, 1999 and are sorry to hear that you feel the walking trail location compromises your privacy. Let us give you some of the background that has brought us to this point. • A walking trail has always been on the original engineers plans that were approved by the Town and that trail was in the area of the Day Care center. Approximately the same location presently planned for the trail. • The Day Care center with a fenced in play yard would have been immediately adjacent to your property. We were successful in getting the Town to agree to eliminate the Day Care center and a second floor apartment in favor of two single family homes. • It is our intention to put a split rail fence on both sides of the trail to the back property line of your property with a gravel path to the edge of the woods. • The original approved engineers drawings showed the R/V storage area between Lots 26 & 27 or right in the middle of the project. We were successful in getting the Town to approve moving the R/V storage area to its current location near Route 5. It was our suggestion that a gazebo be located in the old R/V storage location. We believe the relocation of the RN storage greatly improved the overall appearance of Fitch Meadow. At a meeting of home owners we were asked to eliminate the gazebo and landscape that common area. Landscaping for that area has been professionally designed and will be done shortly. We believe that all of the changes that have been made have been in the best interest of all home owners and helped create a successful and highly praised neighborhood. It is out intention to proceed with the walking trail as currently approved by the Town. We hope this information confirms that we have improved not hindered your privacy and that we have always proceeded with the home owners interest in mind. ry�H.. Marsh l I Fitch Meadow Lane S.

Marsh RE; WALKING TRAIL ENTRANCE,FITCH MEADOW Dear Bryan: Thank you for your quick response to my recent letter expressing concern over the location of the entrance to the walking trail. I understand that the trail has always been part of the plans.....however,as your letter so clearly illustrates, these plans evolved,and continue to evolve as does the development itself. I also can appreciate the point made as the walking trail entrance being a lesser evil than a day care center. That being said,I still would request that you revisit this issue. I still don't understand why the entrance cannot be off the RV storage area. It seems to me a very awkward place,between two private homes,to locate this entrance. I wonder if the town official who approved this plan had his wits about him/herself that day. Perhaps that is the place that I should be voicing my concerns. Your kind attention,as always,is most appreciated. Best regards, KIMBERLEE J. AUSTIN Bond No. 7082 �� p ,— CSTA� RECEIVED ORIGINAL BOND BACK o d (date) � INSURANCE COMPANY 233 MAIN STREET . P.O.
