Re: 1315 John Fitch Boulevard;Anixter, Inc. Site Plan Modification
I am submitting(6) complete sets of plans revised to address town staff comments from Town
Engineer, Jeffrey Doolittle, in his memo dated 3/13/14. Revisions include:
1) An additional storage area has been provided as requested to detain the increase in runoff
for improvements located on the south side of the building. Two copies of the revised
Stormwater Management Plan are included for review.
2) An access easement has been provided, as requested, and is depicted on sheet C-1.
3) Sheet C-2 has been revised as requested, for clarity.
4) We understand that WPCA approval is required.An application has been submitted, and
we expect to be before the Commission at their next scheduled meeting.
Additional revisions were made to address comments raised via email from Planning staff
including:
1) The parking calculations have been modified and broken down by use for the
applicant, as requested. Calculations can be found on Sheet C-1.
2) Lighting has been reviewed and a new light pole is being proposed along the
southerly boundary, adjacent to the 6 proposed parking spaces.A 14'high pole
"The Archetype"by Kim Lighting is specified. This is a full cutoff fixture.A copy
of the specification sheet has been included with this packet for review.
3) Plant material within the rain garden has been modified, as discussed with Jeff
Folger.
4) Landscape area calculations have been included on the landscaping plan(C-3)
and depict 5.9%provided for the 20 relocated spaces, and 1.4%where one
parking space from the rear of the building is being located adjacent to the
existing unapproved spaces east of the building. Please note that this application
proposes a total of 4 more parking spaces than are available today. The goal of
this application was to provide a minimum of 40 spaces along the front of the
building for Anixter. They anticipate 35 office employees entering from the front
and need additional spaces available for visitors.As the site is currently over the
maximum impervious coverage limit(at 66.5%)the applicant will be removing an
equal amount of pavement they are proposing to compensate, as well as an
additional 4200 sf of pavement in areas west of the building, adjacent to Strong
Road, in order to bring the site into compliance.We understand that the existing
parking spaces along John Fitch Boulevard were never approved,however,the
applicant is hopeful that the town will consider the additional work and expense
involved with this proposal to be found acceptable. They would also be amenable
to providing additional plantings (shrubs and/or 5'x5'beds) along the boundary if
desired.
Please review the plans and let me know if you have any questions. The applicant is anxious to
bring new business into South Windsor.Again, we appreciate your continued assistance and
support throughout the process and look forward to our meeting before Planning&Zoning on
March 25, 2014.
Thank you.
Sincerely,
Karen Ish rwood, P.E., Principal
