Application Narrative Statement
KF Properties,LLC
175 Wheeler Road
(Formerly known as 176 Smith Street)
South Windsor, Connecticut
March 13, 2007
KF Properties, LLC requests renewal from the Planning & Zoning
commission for a temporary and conditional permit to operate a Kebalo owned
business, Kebalo Electric Company (1,200 square feet). Since 1961, the
property has been owned by members or entities associated with the Kebalo
family. In 1961 the property was purchased by Walt & Andy's parents, Helen
and Paul Kebalo, along with Walt & Andy's grandparents, Walter and Eugene
Wasylenko. At that time it contained a historic two-story residence erected in
the 1890's, and a separate two-story concrete block commercial building with a
slate roof built in the 1920's. This latter building consisted of a lower level
horse barn and a second floor dancehall. The dancehall had been used by many
Town residents over the years, even for wedding receptions. In 1961 the
residence was converted to a two-family dwelling,with Town permission. Also
in that year, the former horse barn was utilized as a carpentry shop, and in 1969
the Town granted permission for a machine shop, also contained within the
horse barn. In 1987 Kebalo Electric Company, Inc. also commenced operations
at the location. Following a zone change in September 1991 (RR to A-20), in
April 1994 the South Windsor Zoning Board of Appeals granted the Kebalo's
request for a front yard variance (5) to relocate the house on the property. In
1995 the Kebalo's were issued a permit to relocate the house on the property,
then to connect it to the commercial structure, with substantial renovations
including a new stairwell and foyer addition. After the approval of Wheeler
Estates (a six lot subdivision, including the lot for 175 Wheeler Road and a 25-
unit senior residence development all served by an extension of Wheeler Road),
the Planning & Zoning Commission granted a series of temporary and
conditional permits allowing use of the dancehall as a commercial office. The
first office T & C permit approval was granted 2000. On November 3, 2005 the
Kebalo's requested approval from the Zoning Board of Appeals for an office
conversion pursuant to Section 5.6 of the South Windsor Zoning Regulations.
All criteria contained therein for an office conversion were met with one
exception, which is the requirement that the location for such office be on
Buckland Road, Oakland Road, Ellington Road, Route 5 or Sullivan Avenue.
The specific variance request was to Section 5.6.4 to allow an office conversion
on Wheeler Road and Smith Street (i.e., at 175 Wheeler). On November 14,
2005 ZBA denied the application.

t
Today the Kebalo office operation is used by three office workers. One is a
part time secretary that is a neighborhood resident of Wheeler Estates Senior
Resident Condominium(that is located 150 yards on Wheeler Road). The other
is a foreman that uses the office mostly part time in the morning and Walter
who lived across the street. Also using the offices occasionally, are Andy and
the owner's family members.
General information:
1. The particular site has been used as an office for some 7 years without
objection or impact on any abutting property owner.
2. Kebalo Electric has operated from this site since 1987 without any
objection or impact on any abutting property owner.
3. Adequate parking exists on the subject property.
4. There will be no need for any on-street parking.
5. A buffer has already been established along the northerly property line,
which, with limited additional plantings and additional growth, will
provide adequate screening for the future owner of Lot 2 to the north.
6. Kebalo Electric does not require any exterior signage at this location.
7. The subject office is subject to normal property and personal property
taxes.
8. The office has not and will not require evening or weekend office hours.
9. The Kebalo family provides services to the adjoining wheeler Estates
senior residence development.
10.Both original structures on the subject property,which were connected in
1995, are historic and well preserved.
11.Conversion of the subject dancehall to any other use would require
variances.
17. The subject parcel is diagonally across the street from a large
commercially zoned(DC) tract adjacent to the Plaza at Buckland Hills.
21. The subject building has a long history of commercial use, including a
carpentry and machine shop.
22. A mature arborvitae hedgerow exists across Wheeler Road on Lot No.6.
23. The applicant has made significant exterior upgrades to the subject
building(e.g.,new siding, roofing and painting).
24. To date, all office employees use the office on a part time basis
26. The office space is within the former dancehall, and presently consists of
three small offices, a conference room, lounge, bathroom, and a large room for
four work stations and a copier/storage/fax area. It is an attractive office
environment with original (dancehall)wood floors with lots of windows and ten
foot ceilings.
27. The building's exterior has a residential appearance.
Page 3
t
The commercial use of this office is very limited and low impact to the
neighborhood, it provides a sense of security (especially to the Wheeler Estates
Senior resident) that have on numerous occasions called on the emergency
services of the Kebalos, i.e. being locked out of their homes. This business is
green or environmentally friendly because it allows the staff such as the
secretary and some of the Kebalos to walk to work without using their motor
vehicles. It's a good location with plenty of parking and good access.
Thank You
Walter and Andrian Kebalo

Re: Appl#03-61P, Kebalo Electric- One-Year Temporary&Conditional Permit
Dear Mr. Kebalo:
Please be advised that the Planning and Zoning Commission at its September 16, 2003,meeting
approved the above-referenced application for a temporary and conditional permit to allow an
electrical contractor's office on property located at 175 Wheeler Road,A-20 zone. This approval
is subject to the following terms and conditions:
1. The business must be completely contained within the confines of the property at 175
Wheeler Road.
2. All parking needs must be met on-site,no on street parking allowed.
The Planning&Zoning Commission encourages the applicant to explore other options for
location of the business, including commercially zone property.
This approval will expire in one year on September 16, 2004.
Sincerely,

IRTtr,
�t f a tw ear tempor�and c. itional permit-fof-an electrical
cing siness a6 Wheel Road A-20 zQne. Keba1Q-Electric
ha een rating the businessffrom this locatidn since about L987 The
commission originally approved a temporary and conditional permit on
10/31/00, and the most recent approval in 2003 expired on 9/16/04. In
that 2003 approval, the Commission did encourage the applicant to
explore other options for location of the business, including
commercially zoned property.
2. In 2005, the applicant applied to the ZBA for a variance that would -ar a 110�✓
truer this property to be considered under the office conversion
overlay zone, but that was denied by the ZBA. In 2006, Atty Hal
Cummings applied to the PZC for a text amendment to that same
regulation which would allow office uses at this location; again, the
application was denied. The applicant is now requesting a two year T&C
renewal for the office.
3. The PZC granted approval in 1969 for the owner to have a machine shop
in the former horse barn, with no other employees. Today the machine
shop is being used for storage space for Kebalo Electric Company and
other equipment related to their property maintenance business. There is
an office, approximately 1,200 sf, in the house from which the electric
business is conducted. KF Properties LLC, utilizes the office as well for
property management.
4. The applicant has submitted a history of the property, description of the
activities on site associated with the operation of Kebalo Electric, floor
plans and pictures of the property. The parking lot was expanded to
accommodate six cars when the subdivision was constructed.
5. The applicant's narrative indicates that there are three part-time office
workers and that there are no evening or weekend hours. Vegetation has
been planted on the northern lot line providing for screening for the
potential owner of lot 2.
6. The wording of the T & C permit regulation is that, "Temporary and
conditional permits may be granted by the Commission for a use which
is not specified elsewhere in'these regulations for a period not to exceed
two years. Such approval may be given after a Public Hearing if, in the
judgment of the Commission, the public convenience and welfare will be
9
substantially served, and the appropriate use of neighboring property will
not be substantially or permanently injured, and traffic and other hazards
will not result from such use." Electrical contractor establishments are a
specifically permitted use in the industrial zone as are general offices. It
is also probable that an electrical contracting business would qualify
under the similar uses provision of the General Commercial zone.
7. If this application is approved, the planning department recommends that
since this has turned into a long term office, the Commission consider
limiting the number of employees (currently there are three part-time
workers) as well as require the applicant to arrange for private refuse
collection.

RE: Application#2657-05—KF Properties, LLC, 175 Wheeler Road,A-20 zone
Dear Mr. DeMallie:
At the meeting of the South Windsor Zoning Board of Appeals held on November 3, 2005, the
Board denied your request for a variance to section 5.6 to allow the office conversion overlay
zone to be applied to the property located at 175 Wheeler Road, A-20 zone.
The reason for denial is as follows: The application before the Board constitutes a use variance
because it seeks the variance of zoning regulation to allow a particular use where it is not
otherwise allowed. The Zoning Board of Appeals has no authority granting a use variance
when a use variance is allowed within another zone.
Very truly yours,

a warehouse with people coming and going with material.

Application for variance
Kebab Electric,Co.,Inc.
As an owner/resident of Wheeler Estates and an employee of Kebalo Electric,I want to say that I
am in favor of this variance request.
Having Kebalo Electric in close proximity to Wheeler Estates has provided me with a sincere
sense of security. In the event of an emergency, (and several have occurred)I know that there is
generally someone at the office and they would be here within moments.
It is also a tremendous benefit to have Kebalo Electric near enough to walk to work not only to
myself but also to the environment. We all benefit with even one less vehicle on the road
particularly during peak traffic times. One less vehicle contributing toward air pollution,road
deterioration and potential accidents during congested periods.
Please approve their application for the variance so that I will not be forced to lose the secure
feeling I have living here at Wheeler Estates or having to travel to my position as Office
Manager of Kebalo Electric.
Thank you,
,
