Re: Permitted Use Determination
Dear Ms. Heft:
We are pleased to advise you that at the Planning & Zoning Commission meeting on February
14, 2017 the Commission determined by consensus that the training facility for the International
Brotherhood of Electrical Workers proposed for 13 John Fitch Boulevard as referenced in your
letter dated February 8, 2017 and described at the meeting is similar to other permitted uses in
the General Commercial zone and would be permitted by site plan approval.
Sincerely,

RE: 13 John Fitch Blvd—proposed use
Michele-
I am writing on behalf of the International Brotherhood of Electrical Worker, Local Union#42(IBEW#42),who
are currently under contract to purchase 13 John Fitch Boulevard, in South Windsor. IBEW#42 currently has
over 1000 members and performs all utility construction,traffic, railroad commercial work and tree trimming.
IBEW is also used as a mobilization site for storm restoration.Their jurisdiction includes Connecticut and
Western Massachusetts(Berkshire, Franklin, Hampden and Hampshire counties).
It is their intent to renovate the existing building at 13 John Fitch Boulevard into their union headquarters and
training facility. The training sessions occur on average twice a month,typically on Saturdays.Attached is a
schematic floor plan showing a preliminary layout of the building.
IBEW's primary concern is whether they will be allowed to install poles on the property to practice climbing.
These poles will vary in height from thirty to fifty feet,with a couple poles at seventy-five feet and will cover an
area approximately 200 feet by 300 feet;to be located at the rear of the property. For perspective, roadside
telephone poles are forty to fifty feet in height. I also have attached a photo of the pole configuration at their
current headquarters in Manchester,CT.
We would like confirmation from the Town of South Windsor that IBEW's intended use for 13 John Fitch
Boulevard is an accepted use for this parcel.
Thank you in advance for the time and effort put into this matter. IBEW is looking forward to moving their
operations to South Windsor and being a part of this neighborhood and community.
Sincerely, on behalf of IBEW Local 42,
