Bancroft and Andrew Gobin own a 3.642 acre tract on the west side of Main Street southerly of Governor's Highway. The relatively flat and open parcel contains five buildings. The : first is a historic eighteenth century residence in the front at 1115-1117 Main Street,which is the residence of the owners and a tenant, i.e., it is a two-family building. The second is a house to the : rear at 1105 Main Street,which is the residence of Carole's niece and one of the applicant's, Jan Phillips,who grew up across the street at 1106 Main Street. Mr. Lawrence R. Geissler, L.S., Director of Surveying at Design Professionals, Inc.,who prepared the survey of the tract,has : determined that 1105 Main Street is non-conforming to the side yard(it is actually 9.3 feet from the property line), and is not only encroaching upon the rear yard,but actually extends over onto the property of an abutter(N/F Elsie Woolam)by 13.6 feet. While this house is old, and appears in a photograph from 1928, or ten years prior to the establishment of zoning in South Windsor,its exact age is unknown to the applicants. Of necessity, it is proposed to be razed and replaced. The third building is a five car garage serving the 1115-1117 residence,which is non-conforming to the side yard. Three of the bays in that building also pre-date 1928, and thus pre-dates zoning. It will : remain. The fourth building is an old tobacco shed,which pre-dates zoning and is non-conforming to the rear yard. It will remain. The fifth building is a shed serving the pool area, and it too will remain. Both dwellings are served by a common driveway in its historic location. The applicant's proposal is to raze the residence at 1105 Main Street(straddling the property line) in favor of a replacement house, also to the rear,but conforming to all setback requirements. The proposed new house style is similar to the residence of Katherine &Kevin Foley at 498 Main Street(east side, south of Chapel Road). The new house will be served by the existing common driveway, rather than a fee simple access, for which a variance was granted(Section 3.2.2.C.5a)by the South Windsor ZBA on June 5,2008, and is recorded in the land records. In order to implement this plan, and to secure a mortgage,Jan and her fiance Eric will need to create a rear parcel under the Interior Lot regulations. The front lot(No. 1)will conform to all conventional lot requirements in the A-40 Zone. It will have 1.642 acres and over 188 feet of frontage. The new interior lot(No. 2)will have more than 282 feet of lot width,which far exceeds the 225 feet required for an interior lot in this zone. It will have 2 acres,which far exceeds the minimum interior lot size,which is 80,000 sq. ft. Lot No. 2 will have travel and utility easements over Lot No. 1, and will be served by public water and : public sewer. The driveway plan will need to meet the requirements of the fire marshal,who : Mr.David Layman,DPI Project 0080.N • April 1,2009 Page 2 of 2 visited the site with the fire chief last year. The common part of the driveway will be 18 feet in width. The house will be aesthetically pleasing and is being situated as to preserve the tobacco shed and a large open area in the vicinity of the three existing horse paddocks (which may be removed). The house will have far greater value than the building it is replacing. The replacement of the rear : house will remove a serious property line encroachment and remove a non-conformity. Both lots are proposed to retain the open rural character of the land. Accordingly,no buffer/screening measures are proposed. The proposed house is far away from other area homes and is positioned to retain area views. DPI's engineers have proposed a design which provides for adequate sight line, drainage and minimal environmental impacts.No additional driveway curb cut is required, pursuant to access management. We believe this proposal will preserve property values and enhance the neighborhood. Incidentally,the creation of the rear lot is a statutory division,thus subdivision approval is unnecessary. P.O.

I understand the application is to create an interior lot at this site. A newer home will replace the smaller one at the rear of the property in which the location will be in front of the older one. I support the application. Sincerely, Rosemarie Martocci 1121 Main Street South Windsor, CT. Phillips & Soares Interior Lot #09-14P PH 4-28-09 1. Request for approval of a Special Exception to section 3.2.2 and site plan of development to create one interior lot on a 3.6 acre property located at 1105 Main Street (west side of Main Street, south of Governors Highway), A-40 zone. There are two existing houses on this property, one of which is proposed to remain with a 1.6-acre conventional lot. The second house is at the rear (western) property boundary and is actually partially on the adjacent property. This house will be demolished and a new, conforming house constructed. The new interior lot is proposed to be 2 ac. 2. The requirements for the interior lot in the A-40 zone include 80,000 sf minimum lot size and 225 feet minimum lot width. The proposed interior lot appears to conform to these requirements. The existing lot would retain 188 feet of frontage, 150 feet required. There is an existing garage for the front lot located along the southern property boundary. 3. The new interior lot received a variance on June 5, 2008, to allow a driveway easement to Main Street; the regulations require that the interior lot own the accessway. The driveway that currently serves both existing houses will continue to be used but will be widened to 18' over the shared section. 4. The proposed lot is completely open, with a barn and 3 fenced corrals. The fencing is proposed to be removed with this application. 5. The criteria for approval of interior lots include: a. the subject area's boundary configurations, topography, soils or other natural resource characteristics; b. proximity to neighboring properties and dwelling units; c. restriction of existing views; d. proposed buffering/screening; e. potential drainage, traffic & environmental impacts f. driveway locations, slopes & sight lines g. utility service capabilities h. property value impacts; and i. future land use alternatives. 6. The interior lots will be serviced by water. „ ^�,�i r�^••�- It appears that other zoning requirements have been met.

Gobin 1117 Main Street South Windsor, CT 06074 RE: Application #2720-08- Bancroft&Gobin, 1105, 1115, 1117 Main Street variance Dear Ms. Bancroft&Mr. Gobin: At the meeting of the South Windsor Zoning Board of Appeals held on June 5, 2008, the Board approved your request for variances to section 3.2.2.C.5a to allow an interior lot with an access easement (access required to be owned in fee per zoning regulation) located at 1105, 1115 and 1117 Main Street,A-40 zone The board determined the hardship to be that the location of the existing drive and existing garage make it impossible to locate a new drive along the southerly property boundary without removing the garage. Also, due to the close proximity of the non-conforming house to the south, locating an access drive along this property line would have an adverse impact on that property. Along the northerly boundary, there is not enough room for an access drive between the existing house and property line. Conditions: 1. The location and detail of the easement shall be provided as part of the site plan. 2. The Fire Marshal shall approve the design of the access drive. 3. The non-conforming house that straddles the western border'shall be raised or removed within five months upon issuance of certificate of occupancy. 4. Any new building, or alteration/additions to existing buildings, requires a building permit prior to start of construction. These actions are effective upon your filing the enclosed form in the Town Clerk's Office at your own expense.

I can support the application to create an interior lot on the acreage across the street from my land—specifically behind lot 1115, and 1117 Main Street.

South Windsor, CT 06074 PZC Agenda 04-28-2009 Application 09-14P, Jan Phillips & Eric Soares To whom it concerns. My name is Eric Soares. I have lived at 1105 Main St. in South Windsor for about four years. I am writing in support of the application to create an interior lot at 1105, 1115, and 1117 Main Street. There are many reasons both personal and logical that I feel this application should be accepted. It has been a privilege to live in South Windsor and meet the people who live along Main St. While living at 1105 Main Street I have come to know the Bancroft/Phillips family rather well. I have lived with Jan Phillips for several years and it was the late Mrs. Bancroft that allowed me to move into the house at 1105 Main St. In my relatively short time on Main Street, I have had the opportunity to learn of the rich history of the families living along the street and the Bancroft/Phillips family is no exception. I believe this application would simply allow this tradition to continue by allowing Jan and me to create a comfortable,modest living space for the next generation. There are already two houses on the property. The second house is not in the condition required to continue the tradition established by the family and create a homestead for the next generation. In essence,the house would simply be replaced by a more livable one that is more esthetically pleasing in fitting with the neighborhood and the property would remain in the family. It stands to reason that nothing would change other than an old run down house would be replaced by a modest new one that is • built to todays codes and standards. I feel that Jan Phillips and Carole Bancroft have a relationship that also can't be easily explained and they deserve the right to be able to continue the family tradition of living on the street.

They show a love for the South Windsor community and have shared that their intention is to continue to live and raise their children on the very land that Jan and her family have enjoyed for many years. I have had the opportunity to see first hand the plans that Jan and Eric have developed and they are not only well thought out, but would add to the already beautiful South Windsor Community. I have also had the opportunity to live with Eric and Jan for several months in the house that they currently reside in. I can recall the many times that I drove down the driveway to the little house set back from the road, imaging what this young couple • would like to have in their "Forever Home". A warm inviting home fit for children and family functions. The location and setting is perfect for a new house that this couple will make memories in for many years to come. Eric and Jan have demonstrated a passion and eagerness to begin their lives and it will, with your approval, start with a new home on the land on which they currently reside. Eric and Jan have spent many hours discussing the specifics of this project and have not haphazardly decided on a location or design. In closing, I would like to again say that I support Eric and Jan in this undertaking. As a former,short term resident of South Windsor, I would like to bring it to the town's attention that South Windsor would be lucky to have both Jan and Eric as permanent residents and I see no issues with granting appropriate zoning for this construction.

As the current tenant of 1105 Main Street,it is my dream to replace the current existing rundown structure with a more attractive and updated version, which would add to the property value of all surrounding homes. In order to build this new structure,however, an interior lot will need to be created. In reality, an interior lot is simply a formality, as there have been two existing homes on this property for more than 50 years. Both homesteads have lived harmoniously for this entire duration. My support for the creation of an interior lot is my way of showing my support for the preservation of the memories and the nostalgia associated with this property just as my grandmother, Helen Bancroft, would have wanted. • Sincerely, Jan Phillips 1105 Main Street South Windsor, CT 06074 • 6-4LLLt�-t A rzc South Windsor Planning&Zoning Commission 1540 Sullivan Avenue South Windsor, CT 06074 PZC Agenda 04-28-2009 Application 09-14P, Jan Phillips&Eric Soares Presently,we are Main Street homeowners, living across the street from 1105, 1115, and 1117 Main Street.
