4. At the hearing into this matter, the respondent argued
that the executive session was properly convened in accordance
with §1-18a(e)(2) , G.S. , and §15.3 of its enforcement
regulations since a "warning letter- and a "notice of violation"
had been wailed to Charbonneau concerning his property.
5. It is found that on or about September 36, 1994 the
respondent mailed a "yarning letter" to Charbonneau (hereinafter
"September letter-), and then on or about October 18, 1994 a
"notice of violation" was sent to him, (hereinafter mOctober
notice").

7. Section 1-18(aj(q) , G.S. , defines a "pending claim" as:
. a written notice to an ggencv which vets
forth a demand for legal relief or which asserts
a legal right stating the intention to institute
an action in an appropriate forum if such relief

letter, nor October notice constitute a pending claim as defined
by1-1ga)(g). G.S.
9. Section 1-18(a)(h) , G.S., defines "pending litigation"
as:
(1) a Written notice to an agency which sets
forth a demand for legal relief or which asserts
a legal right stating the intention to institute
.an action before a court if Such relief or right
is not granted by the agency: (2) the service of
a complaint against an agency returnable to a
court which seeks to enforce or implement legal
relief or a legal right; or (3) the agency's

commence legal action.
11. it is alga €outd that neither the September letter nor
the October notice constitute pending litigation under
§1-18(a)(h) (1) or 51-18(a) (h)(2) , G.S.
12. It is further found that the respondent failed to
prove that its issuance of the September letter and October
violation constituted 'consideratiDn of action to enforce or
implement legal relief or a legal right" as required by

13. It is concluded that the respondent did not convene
the executive session at issue for a proper purpose as required

Mr. Simon Whalley - Manager
Redland Brick Co.
K.F Plant
P.O. Box 375
East Windsor Hill, CT 06028
Dear Mr. Whalley:
Re: Ongoing pollution impacts to Bancroft/Stoughton Brook from clay mining activities at 1440 John
Fitch Blvd.
This correspondence is to recap the meeting between you, Denise Savageau, and me on January 9 h
1997 to discuss site conditions and problems on 1440 John Fitch Boulevard.
As we discussed the problems are twofold, first, you have a colony of beavers present on the property
that continues to fill the outflow structures at the settling ponds. This causes a severe backup of water
behind the outfalls which has to be periodically maintained. The second problem is that large areas of
the borrow area that are not being used for excavation, storage, or access need to be vegetatively stable
to minimize sediment impacts to the ponds and to surrounding wetland and watercourse areas.
You have taken steps through voluntary cooperation to begin controlling stormwater runoff from the
access roads leading to the borrow pit. Runoff channels have been identified and channel protection
using brick material as rip-rap has been installed. The sand stockpile located adjacent to the northern
access road has been pulled back from the slopes that border the wetland located there. Seeding efforts
have begun along the berms surrounding the smaller settling ponds.
The total amount of open land area present and unfortunate results in dealing with unforeseen problems,
such as the beavers blocking the outlet structures suggest a more formal approach to natural resource
protection on the site.
It is in the best interests of the natural resources of the Town of South Windsor and Redland Brick to
develop a comprehensive stormwater management plan for the site. This plan would provide short and

Re; KF Plant, 1440 John Fitch Boulevard FEA 13

South Windsor
Dear Mr. Folger: INLAND WETLANDS AGENCY/
CONSERVATION COMMISSION
Thank you for your letter of January 27, 1997 concerning the meeting between yourself,
Denise Savageau, and me on January 9 concerning site conditions at the KF Plant, 1440
John Fitch Boulevard, South Windsor.
I appreciate the fact that the Town of Windsor recognizes that the KF Plant faces a problem
caused by a colony of beavers, whose activity has caused problems with drainage form the
plant into the adjacent Bancroft/Stoughton Brook. We are working to find a way to deal
promptly with the beaver problem, and hope to avoid future drainage problems.
As your letter recognizes, the Plant has also already taken various other steps to control
stormwater discharges. Your letter requests the development of a "comprehensive
stormwater management plan" for the Site. In fact, the KF Plant has already developed,
with its environmental consultants, Environmental Risk Limited of Bloomfield, a stormwater
management plan. The Plant is observing the requirements of that stormwater
management plan. If you would be interested in reviewing the plan, to see whether it might
be altered or modified in some reasonable way to deal with concerns of the Town, please
let me know and I will happy to review our plan with you. We can then discuss any
concerns you might have.
I assume that your January 2, 1997 issuing a Notice of Violation ("NOV") against the KF
Plant is superseded by your January 27, 1997 letter, and that it is not necessary for the
company to make any response to that NOV. Please contact me immediately if my
understanding on this point is incorrect.
Thank you for taking the time to meet with me. I look forward to working with you.

Dear Mr.Burns:
Re:Application of Caron Auto Works,Inc.,c/o David A.Caron, 359 Burnham Street
The South Windsor Planning and Zoning Commission discussed the above-referenced application at their
meeting on Tuesday,February 25.
The Commission has invested a large amount of time and effort in the master planning of South
Windsor's Interstate 291 corridor. Included in the master planning effort was a comprehensive rezoning
that includes Burnham Street. The new I-291 Corridor Zone has high standards for site aesthetics.During
the planning effort,the I-291 Corridor Committee and the Planning and Zoning Commission were careful
to be sensitive to concerns previously expressed by the Town of East Hartford for this area.
Since of South Windsor has invested so much time and funding in the planning efforts for this area, the
Commission expressed concerns regarding the proximity of the proposed trucking terminal to Burnham
Street. The Commission recognizes that this site has an existing building, and requests that, if approval is
granted, such approval include a requirement for extensive screening and landscaping.
Thank you for your consideration of this request.
Very truly yours,

PROPERTY: South Main Street between Abbe Road an Scantic Roads,
PRESENT ZONE: A-1 & B-2
ZONE CHANGE REOUESTED: Extension of the B-2 zone easterly
Q�V—INER: LCC Partnership
PROPOSED USE: Temporary storage- inventory holding area for good condition,
late model, operational, saleable automobiles
OTHER INFORMATION: All of the uses contemplated in the above request are presently
permitted in various combinations throughout the present B-2
zone. Inventory storage and temporary storage of automobiles is
permitted. Many examples of these, and other more intensive B-
2 uses are found in this vicinity.
Safeguards include significant and specific regulations governing
the parking of automobiles, parking lot construction, etc.
Examples of all of the above uses can be seen in numerous
places in B-2 zones throughout the town and particularly along
Route 3 which is primarily B-2 and specifically B-2 in this area
and over the front portion of this property.
The public at large accepts these uses as consistent to the normal
interaction of business, services and infrastructure necessary to
the daily activities in this area.
All infrastructure is presently accessible to the site including
sewer, water, electricity, and natural gas. Roads and highways
are more than adequate to accommodate the B-2 zone.
This zone change is not contrary to zoning contemplated and
already permitted in this area and is merely an easterly extension
of the existing B-2 zone. Most of this property is already
cleared, and has been farmed for many years, rliminishirig its
value as wild life habitat. Wetlands on the site form a natural
buffer between the proposed B-2 extension and residential
property in the rear.
RECEIVED Since this use is presently permitted in many forms and since
there are more than sufficient regulations presently in effect to
insure public health, welfare and safety, the applicant's request
A� 3 1991 should be approved and the zone change granted

Dear Marcia,
Thank you again for time yesterday in connection with the above captioned matter.
As we discussed, we are contemplating the above mentioned site as our new head-
quarters. In order to determine the design, size and placement of our building at the
site, it will be necessary to ascertain the placement of the loading docks for the facil-
ity. Therefore, pursuant to Section 6.1.5.5(d) of the South Windsor Zoning Regula-
tions, I formally request a waiver of the prohibition to place the loading docks facing
a public highway.
Your prompt attention and cooperation are greatly appreciated.

Dear Mike:
I have enclosed a copy of the handout provided at the Chamber of Commerce breakfast on
South Windsor signage for you. I'm sorry you were not able to attend in person.
The Chamber's Sign Sub-Committee has done a good job in balancing the needs of business with
the desire to create a pleasant and professional atmosphere along the roadways. I hope you will
attend any public hearings when scheduled, and also that our complex will be part of the answer and
not part of the problem in South Windsor signage, Mike.
As part of the presentation, a sign board was posted listing examples of good and bad signage
currently in place in South Windsor. I was embarrassed to see our sign in the display and hope there
can be improvement in the near-term. Joe Jeamel continues to be responsible for this area at SBR.
The current signage at our South Windsor Office detracts from the professional image we need to
increase our success. I hope you will take the lead in setting standards for quality, professional
signage in South Windsor, Mike.
Sincerely,
William J. McGurk

In re: Property of Rosella A. Whitney, a/k/a Rosella A. Abbe
389 Abbe Road, South Windsor
Dear Marcia:
Enclosed please rind a copy of a property survey prepared by Al Schindler for the Rosella A.
Whitney(a/k/a Rosella A. Abbe)property on Abbe Road.
I also attach for your reference copy of a warranty deed dated April 3, 1929, recorded in Volume
27 at Page 219 of the South Windsor Land Records(the house and house lot)and also a copy of
a quit claim deed dated December 20, 1948, and recorded at Volume 36,Page 404 of the South
Windsor Land Records(the excess acreage deed).
The house known as 389 Abbe Road is located on the original house lot deed recorded at
Volume 27,Page 219. The additional acreage is being added to Parcel A, to comprise the total
parcel of 1.24 acres, being transferred from the"extra acreage deed"at Volume 36,Page 404.
Parcel B is the remaining portion of the"extra acreage"referenced in the deed at Volume 36,
Page 404.
Since 1948,there have been three conveyances by Rosella A. Whitney, a/k/a Rosella Abbe--the
first, in 1954,was to Virginia Skillin and is recorded at Volume 48,Page 211 of the South
Windsor Land Records. The second and third conveyances.were in 1979,to I.R. Stich
Associates and recorded at Volume 265 at Page 309, and Volume 265 at Page 311 of the South
Windsor Land Records, respectively. Those three conveyances all came out of the extra acreage
parcel referenced in Volume 36 at Page 404.
Therefore, it is my opinion that there is no subdivision issue created by reason of the conveyance
of the house and house lot shown as Parcel A on the enclosed map, since Parcel A existed as a
house and house lot of record since 1929.
Before there could be a conveyance or sale of Parcel B, however,as a building lot, subdivision
approval would be required since, as indicated,there were conveyances out of Parcel B after the
adoption of subdivision regulations.
We anti_cpate a closing and salve on the house and house lot on Tuesday,May 6th. At that time,
we intend to record the mylar map. Understanding the policy of the Town of South Windsor that
you review any mylar maps before they are filed, I would appreciate your reviewing the above
and,hopefully, confirming that no subdivision approval is required for the conveyance of Parcel
A, 389 Abbe Road, in accordance with the above title history.

Town of South Windsor South Windsor

So. Windsor, CT 06074
Dear Mr. Levack:
was astounded to learn that property owner abutters in the Town of South
Windsor are not required to be notified of applications for exceptions or special
approvals under the Zoning regulations.
The Town and/or the applicant(s) for approvals by the Planning and Zoning
Commission should be required to automatically notify abutting property owners
of each and all Planning and Zoning actions and hearings where the use is not
permitted as of absolute right in any particular zone.
Therefore, where any special permit, special exception, variance, or other
consideration for Zoning approval is submitted to the Commission said abutters
must be notified, and not only where Inland Wetlands approvals are at issue as
is the current regulation.
Please advise as to whether and when this modification to our regulations will
be effected. Should I need to pursue any action or process in order to so initiate
and implement said modification, please so advise as well.
I look forward to hearing from you. Thank you.
Sincerely,

Dear Ladies:
The following are submitted for additions and revisions to the present Town
Zoning Regulations, both as general requirements and as conditions of any
zoning approval:
The Town must adopt and promulgate regulations and restrictions
to ensure that there is appropriate, consistent, and compatible transitions
of abutting projects and uses in adjoining and differing residential zones
and in commercial or industrial to residential zones.
Further, it must be ensured that abutting projects and uses in less
restrictive zones, whether residential, commercial, or industrial, be of
consistent and compatible size, style, scope, scale, and character as
projects or uses in higher adjoining zones, i. e., residential.
All applicants to the Planning and Zoning Commission for either
special exceptions, special permits, changes of zone, or any other
deviation from or modification to uses unequivocally permitted as of
absolute right must be required to notify all property owner abutters.
Projects must be limited in future use to the purpose for which
originally approved by the Town. A project must not be permitted to be
converted to other use(s) should the project prove not feasible to the
developer, owner, or operator either from a market, feasibility, or
profitability standpoint; for the convenience of the developer, owner,
or operator; or for subsequent economic hardship of the developer,
owner, or operator.
Cooking stoves must not be permitted in the units of any
non-single family project or facility designed or operated either for
patients or for residents of any age, unless the project or facility is a
conventional multi-family apartment or condominium project in a zone in
which such is permitted. Violations of the restrictions upon stoves must
result in immediate revocation of any zoning approval.

The Town must require developers' use of existing main,
secondary, or tertiary roads for access to public water and/or sewage
utilities, as opposed to single-family residential roads or Town
Rights-of-Way in single-family residential zones, when those utilities
are otherwise available in main, secondary, or tertiary roads and
in proximity to any point of a project's site, particularly when those
main, secondary, or tertiary roads are necessarily planned by
developer(s) to be disrupted and the project(s)' property trenched for
access to one of the other of those utilities.
1 hus, both i ULIIIties shall be b ougP Ik W 'he site via the same route al d
trenching and neither single-family residential roads nor Town
Rights-of-Way otherwise disrupted.
Developers shall thus not be granted the right to access either utility
from different roads when both are available in the same road, and,
accordingly, any claim of economic hardship shall not be a valid
consideration, exception, or allowance by the Town and approval for
same not granted.
The Town must otherwise supervise the construction of the
installation of public water or sewer lines through Town Rights-of-Way
property in residential neighborhoods and/or which abut private
properties. The Town must restrict the destruction of trees and natural
habitat for such construction. Any so minimized areas opened by such
construction must be replanted with tall, mature trees and shrubs so as to
preserve the natural state of the Right-of-Way land, the character of the
area, and habitat for the wildlife.
Driveway, road, or other on-site outside lighting must not be
allowed more than 2' in height for any and all commercial, multi-family
residential, institutional, medical/health care, industrial, or other projects
or uses other than single-family residential in any zone abutting or
adjoining single-family residential zones, whether those projects or uses
are private, public, or non-profit.
• Only mature, tall plantings must be required for screening of
buildings, driveways, and roads from neighboring single-family
residences for any and all commercial, multi-family residential,
institutional, medical/health care, industrial, or other projects or uses
other than single-family residential in any zone abutting or adjoining
single-family residential zones, whether those projects or uses are
private, public, or non-profit.
pg. 3 of 3
The Town must require developers to provide market studies
and sales plans for any and all multi-family residential, institutional,
medical/health care, or other projects or uses in residential zones,other
than single-family residential, whether those projects or uses are private,
public, or non-profit.
• The Town must require developers to disclose the ratio of
multi-family unit mixes and the rental or purchase prices to be
charged for apartment or condominium projects.
_ The Towr must require developers to disclose the entity which
will be managing facilities or operations and the experience of that entity
for any and all multi-family residential, institutional, medical/health care,
or other projects or uses in residential zones, other than single-family
residential, whether those projects or uses are private, public, or
non-profit.
The Town must ensure that any road surface disrupted or
damaged by the construction of a project in any residential area is
repaved and restored in its entirety over the full surface to Town
standards and not just patched where disrupted or damaged.
Thank you.

Dear Ms. Banach:
Thank you for your letter of June 26.
1. Regarding the explanation as to the communications relative to the
zoning application, I had been informed, erroneously I now see, that (a) no
communications should be made to P & Z Commission members either prior
to or after the public hearing, and that any communication could and should be
through the Director of Planning; and (b) that communications are properly made
to and received by the Commission through that office. I appreciate your
clearing that up, and I should have contacted you earlier in that regard as that
sight line issue, I feel, is extremely pertinent to any proposed development in
that location.
Additionally, I will re-address my earlier correspondence to you as to
zoning regulations additions and modifications directly to the Commission.

The following are submitted for additions and revisions to the present Town

The Town must adopt and promulgate regulations and restrictions
to ensure that there are appropriate, consistent, compatible projects

i. e., proposed higher intensity projects or uses on sites abutting
existing and other more restrictive single-family residential zones.
This must apply to all projects and uses abutting adioining and
differing residential zones as well as in commercial or industrial to
residential zones.
It must be ensured that all abutting projects and uses in all ►ess
restrictive zones be strictly of consistent and compatible size, style,
scope, scale, and character as uses in higher, more restrictive
adioining zones, i. e., single-family residential.
Further, it must be ensured that all projects and uses within any zone
itself must be consistent and compatible size, style scope, scale, and
character as other uses within the zone .
• Accordingly, each and every Special Exception requirement must
be strictly adhered to and any single deviation or non-compliance from
which cause for automatic resection.
All applicants to the Planning and Zoning Commission for either
special exceptions, special permits, changes of zone, or any other
deviation from or modification to uses unequivocally permitted as of
absolute right must be required to notify all property owner abutters.

utilities, as opposed to single-family residential roads or Town

are otherwise available in main, secondary, or tertiary roads and
in proximity to any point of a proiect's site, particularly when those
main, secondary, or tertiary roads are necessarily planned by
developer(s) to be disrupted and the project(s)' property trenched for
access to one of the other of those utilities.
Thus, both utilities shall be brought to the site via the same route and
trenching and neither single-family residential roads nor Town
Rights-of-Way otherwise disrupted.
Developers shall thus not be granted the right to access either utility
from different roads when both are available in the same road, and,
accordingly, any claim of economic hardship shall not be a valid
consideration, exception, or allowance by the Town and approval for
same not granted.
• The Town must otherwise supervise the construction of the
installation of public water or sewer lines through Town Rights-of-Way
property in residential neighborhoods and/or which abut private
properties. The Town must restrict the destruction of trees and natural
habitat for such construction. Any so minimized areas opened by such
construction must be replanted with tall, mature trees and shrubs so as to
preserve the natural state of the Right-of-Way land, the character of the
area, and habitat for the wildlife.

Re: Outdoor Storage in 1-291 Zone
The Planning and Zoning Commission received your letter dated July 23, 1997,regarding
potential relocation of your business into the 1-291 zone on Burnham Street in South Windsor.
Your question regarding outdoor storage was discussed by the Commission at their July 23
meeting. We regret to inform you that the Commission reinforced their decision to prohibit
outdoor storage in the I-291 zone (see Section 5.9.5.c.5 of the zoning regulations). We would,
however, welcome your application for site plan approval for a new location in our Industrial
zone.
Please do not hesitate to contact me if you have any further questions or need assistance.

Dear Mr. Levack:
Allied Construction, Inc. is an 11 year '-old general construction
company presently located in Manchester, seeking to relocate our business to South
Windsor. We are presently considering the purchase of .a certain parcel :of land
located off Burnham St, on,Sea Pave Rd. It is our intention to apply,for wetlands
and planning and zoning commissions 'approvals for the construction of a 10,000
s.f. facility to house our:corporate offices and warehouse operations. .The nature of
our business is such that we require an.area designated for the outside.storage of
such materials as; pick-up trucks, backhoe, ' dumpster, concrete forms, and
miscellaneous construction materials" _either returning. from or, to be used 'on
construction projects.
The parcel of land in consideration is located in the I-291 corridor zone.
We are not certain if the zoning regulations for this zone permit outside storage.
Would the commission .review the regulations and determine: 1 if'outside storage is
permitted in this zone? 2 if not, will the planning and zoning commission consider
.modifying; the regulations to-' permit outside storage as a special condition for
approval in ahis sub-;division?
We are anxious to pursue this location _for our new facility. Your
immediate attention to this matter would be greatly, appreciated. We look forward to
hearing-from you.

Dear Michele:
From the text of your letter to Ms. DeMay of August 29th and the
attached regulations concerning cul-de-sacs, it would appear that Charing
Road, while of an atypical conformation, is not something other than a "Cul-
de-sac (Dead End) Street."
I understand that new sub-division regulations are scheduled to go to
public hearing in mid-October. Please notify me in writing as soon as
possible after a determination has been made as to whether Charing Road
will continue to be defined as a cul-de-sac or reclassified to another type of
street.
Thank you for your assistance.

Dear Joe:
I received your correspondence dated September 19 regarding the rescheduling of the ZBA
meeting from October 2 to October 9. I have traced the cause of the rescheduling to an
inadvertent presumption that the meeting was automatically scheduled for October 9 since
October 2 is a religious holiday. This presumption occurred quite some time ago,when the
calendar of meetings was prepared for 1997, and was in no way a deliberate attempt to usurp the
Chairman's authority.
Joe,please accept my apology for this action. I have taken steps to prevent such a presumption
from occurring in the future.

Dear Marcia;
I was called today to be told that the Zoning Board of Appeals
meeting for October was changed from October 2 to October 9 .
The ZBA secretary asked if I wanted to have all of the ZBA members
called.
Upon questioning her, she stated that because of the Rosh Hashanah
holiday, Staff personnel took it upon themselves to change the ZBA
meeting day. I was further told that it was too late to schedule
the meeting back to the 2nd. of October because the submission of
the paperwork for the legal notice had passed.
Please be advised that the Zoning Board of Appeals makes all of the
policy decisions relative to ZBA activity. Scheduling meeting
dates is a policy decision. I have not delegated any policy
authority to Town Staff and to my knowledge, past Chairpersons have
not done so.
If there is any misunderstanding concerning this issue, please let
this letter be my directive to you that there are certain
administrative functions which have been delegated to Staff.
However, no policy decisions have been nor will they be delegated
to Staff as long as I am the Chairperson of the ZBA. I am
available most of the time if policy decisions need to be made.
Therefore, I request that you, as Director of Planning take the
necessary action to assure that everyone in your department are
fully aware of the limited administrative Zoning Board of Appeals
functions delegated to our Town Staff.
I will notify all ZBA members and alternates of the date change and
the secretary of the ZBA of this directive.
Very Truly Yours:

RE: Zoning on Sea Pave Road
Please be advised that at the Planning and Zoning Commission meeting on September 30, 1997
the Commission discussed your plans for the commercial building at 26 Sea Pave Road. It was
the consensus of the Commission that an electrical contracting business and a machine shop were
permitted uses under the I-291 Corridor Zoning Regulation. The Commission did want to
reaffirm that all uses are subject to the performance standards in that zone and that outdoor
storage is not permitted in that zone.

Dear Mr. Chairman,
Per phone conversation on September 25, 1997 with Michelle Lippee, I am submitting a request for
advice on proposed uses of a commercial building at 26 Sea Pave, South Windsor. Due to the fairly
recent change in zoning regulations related to the extension 291 Corridor, Ms. Lippee thought it would
be in my best interest to bring my proposed use of the building to the attention of the board.
At this time we would like to use this building to house Daniels Electric, an electrical contractor, and a
machine shop with low noise finish grinding. These proposed businesses would not use any outside
storage. Our plans our to clean up the site and remove the debris from the location.
We hope you concur with Ms. Lippee that these uses are permitted.
Sincerely,
Daniel P. Etienne

Included is the revised copy of the Public Improvement Specification for the above referenced. As
indicated in number 4,sidewalks will be located as defined by the PZC. The Planning and Zoning has
generally required sidewalks on at least one side of the road. (I have enclosed the wording currently
existing in the Subdivision Regulations.) However as we are both aware, sidewalks are not always
required.
The next step to making this type of roadway allowed "by regulation" is to add some language to the
actual Subdivision Regulation specifying the criteria under which this roadway can be proposed. We
will be drafting an amendment and at that time you may want to provide some input about the
requirement of sidewalks in developments with this road pattern. I will be sure to keep you informed as
we go forward with any regulations.

Re: Possible Acquisition of Property at 706 Sullivan Avenue and 42 Troy Road
Pursuant to your request (and correspondence from Attorney John J. Kindl dated
November 6, 1997), we have reviewed the above-referenced properties for
desirability as Town-owned land.
Both properties are located in our General Commercial zone, and both are
conforming lots insofar as each meets minimum lot size, frontage and depth
requirements in this zone.
The property at 706 Ellington Road has one hundred thirty feet of frontage on
Sullivan Avenue and is about 600 feet in length, with a total area of about 1.7 acres.
The Town wetlands map shows regulated wetlands on the back portion of the
property (as much as one-half to two-thirds of the property). There are no structures.
This property is located slightly east of the intersection of West Road with Sullivan
Avenue, and continues north about 2/3 of the way to the intersection of Troy Road
and Brookfield Street. It is our opinion that this property may have some future value
to the Town in the event that a major reconstruction of the West Road/Troy Road
offset intersections is ever pursued.
The property at 42 Troy Road has about 275 feet of frontage and is about 2.2 acres
in size. The Town wetlands map indicates that much of this property is regulated
wetlands, and a site visit confirms that much of the property is clearly wet much of the
time. There is a derelict house on the site, as well a large quantity of old farm
machinery and other junk scattered about on the property. It is our opinion that, due
to the large amount of wetlands and debris on this property, it is not a desirable
property for Town ownership.

RE: 42 Troy Road and 706 Sullivan Avenue, South Windsor, CT SOUTH WINNO PLUNH KPT.
Dear Council Members:
Please be advised that this firm represents Richard Marshall,Trustee,the record owner of the
above-referenced property,also shown as Parcels 27 and 28 on Assessor's Map No. 111. These two
abutting parcels, located in a CG Zone consist of approximately 4 acres of land. The 42 Troy Road
parcel contains 2.2 acres and has approximately 275 feet of frontage on the west side of Troy Road;
while the 706 Sullivan Avenue parcel contains 1.7 acres and has approximately 130 feet of frontage
on the north side of Sullivan Avenue. Other than a derelict frame structure on the Troy Road parcel,
these properties contain no improvements. As your tax records will also reflect,these parcels are
subject to significant outstanding real estate taxes, interest and lien fees, as well as a sanitary sewer
lien in favor of the Town of South Windsor.
As Trustee of the trust holding record title to this property, our client has recently undertaken
an evaluation of the status of this property and,as a result,has requested that we inquire on his behalf
as to whether the Town of South Windsor would be interested in acquiring title to these parcels. In
light of the location of this property and the significant frontage on both Troy Road and Sullivan
Avenue,the ownership of these properties by the Town may be beneficial in connection with future
road expansion or other municipal development. Accordingly, I would respectfully request your
consideration of this proposal at your convenience and your communication to the undersigned with
your response in this regard.
Should you require any further information or have any questions with respect to this
correspondence,please do not hesitate to contact me. Thank you for your anticipated careful
consideration of this request.

To: Marge Anthony, Chairman, Zoning Board of Appeals
From: Matt Galligan, Town Manager N"
CC: Marcia Banach, Director of Planning
Date: 01/30/98
Re: Planning Department Staff Attendance at ZBA Meetings
I would like to address an issue that arises at Zoning Board of Appeals meetings, and
offer a resolution to the problem.
As you are well aware, the Planning Department is generally where ZBA applicants
receive information and suggestions regarding how to proceed when said applicant
wants to do something that is not allowed in the zoning regulations. They also are the
department to whom applicants submit their actual applications.
While the Planning Department does their best to provide accurate, helpful
information and advice to potential applicants, they frequently receive feedback
following ZBA meetings about the numerous "errors" that the Planning Department
has forwarded to ZBA. We also hear about applicants who did not understand why
they were requesting variances; and we have even heard on many occasions that
the information presented to ZBA was not exactly the same as the information
presented to the Planning Department.
Needless to say, this type of confusion leads to extreme frustration on your part as
well as on Planning Department staffs part. It is quite discouraging to hear feedback
time and time again regarding the "errors"they make, yet have no way to attempt to
clarify information as questions arise at your meetings.
Marge, our goal as professional staff has always been to serve our boards and
commissions as effectively as possible. In order to meet this goal, Marcia Banach,
Director of Planning, and I agree that it would be mutually beneficial to both your
Board and to the Planning Department to try to resolve this issue by having either
0 Page 1
Michele Lipe, Assistant Director of Planning, or Marcia attend ZBA meetings and sit
in the audience, where they will be readily available to answer your questions if
confusion arises. They can also, if it seems appropriate for an application, speak
during the applicant's public hearing to provide you with any relevant information.
Therefore, Planning Department staff will begin attending your February 5 meeting. It
is our hope that their attendance at your meetings will prove to be beneficial both to
ZBA members and to applicants.
