Police Assoc. , T & C permit to hold annual picnic at Veterans Memorial Park Mr. DeMallie, Planning Director, reported as follows: a. Pleasant Valley Homes currently has 27 acres of open space, but none has been developed for parks and recreation. Under the regulations 4 acres of open space is required. The attorney for the applicant is aware of this situation. b. Site plan for Wayne Gerlt, needs several minor corrections. Also, the applicant has not yet obtained approval from Inland Wetlands. c. The Russo subdivision is a situation where proper subdivision approval was never granted when Burr Meadow Condominiums acquired this parcel. This application is to clear up that technicality. d. The Tobacco Sanitation site plan is all right, but they indicate 10 parking spaces and there are only 9 shown on the plan. e. S. W. Police Association - this is for a temporary and conditional permit to hold a picnic on June llth. Mr. Sorenson made a motion to officially receive the above applications and Mr. Conde seconded it. It was unanimously voted in favor and so ordered. 2. Town of South Windsor, Nevers and Sand Hill Road, Park Public Works Director Robert Arsenault pointed out on a map the 80 acres owned by the Town located at Sand Hill Road and Nevers Road. The Town has the opportunity of receiving some aid through the National Park Service of the Department of Interior. The program is being administered by the land acquisition section of the Connecticut Department of Environmental Protection. Mr. Arsenault said the plan shown tonight is a preliminary plan. In order to submit the application, resolutions are required by various Town agencies and commissions, including the Planning & Zoning Commission. Mr. Arsenault noted that the Town Council is holding an informational public hearing on Monday, June 6th, and the application will be submitted to the State by June 10, Planning and Zoning Commission 2- May 24, 1983 Mr. Arsenault said the plan shown tonight is a conceptual plan for the park which is pretty much in accordance with the site study which was done in 1975 calling for passive and active types of recreation. The park is in three sections, each of which will have softball fields which can also be used for football or soccer. There's a par course, which is an exercise trail, going through the parks, as well as picnic areas and shelters, and childrens' playgrounds are also planned. Mr. Arsenault emphasized the plan shown is a conceptual plan and when actual layouts are considered the Town will come back to this Commission for further approvals. Town Manager Sartor was present and told the Commission that three separate applications are being submitted for the three parks, and the Town could receive funding for only one, rather than all three. The Commissioners asked how much of the cost would be funded by the National Park Service and Mr. Sartor said 50 per cent would be federally funded, 25 per cent by the State and the remaining 25 per cent locally. Mr. Sartor noted that Section 8-24 of the Connecticut General Statutes also requires endorsement by this Commission for municipal improvements. Mr. Arsenault said the proposed location of Abbe Road Extension will be utilized, and the site is centrally located and near the high school as well as the new police/ambulance complex. A presentation has been made to tie Town Council and the Council endorsed this project. Chairperson Montana said that she thinks everyone on the Commission agrees that this is an ideal place for such a recreational facility. Commissioner Hallowell made a motion that the three Resolutions attached hereto, marked Exhibits A, B and C, for Nevers Road Park I, Nevers Road Park II, and Nevers Road Park III, be adopted. Mrs. Evans seconded the motion and it was unanimously voted in favor and so ordered. Commissioner Evans said she is not happy with the road layout as shown since people would be able to cut through the park to get to the high school. Mr. Hallowell noted that the Town could use some more tennis courts, and several Commissioners said they did not like the locations of the proposed parking areas. Mr. Hallowell said there appears to be too much area designated for parking and it's not necessary to have the parking areas so close to the ballfields. It was also noted that more areas with shade trees would be desirable. ' Chairperson Montana said it appears a great deal of earth will have to be moved in Phase I, and questioned how theproject would be completed if funding is not granted for Phases II and III. Mr. Arsenault said that while the Town is waiting for the grant, it intends to do some work on the site and if it gets the grant it can be reimbursed. If it doesn't get the grant, it's on its own. He said they have the opportunity of getting some of the grading on Park I done, and they hope to have the park operational by Spring, 1984. He said they hope to have it graded, seeded and irrigated, and will probably come back to the Commission shortly for an excavation permit. 5 Planning and Zoning Commission 3- May 24, 1983 Mr. Sartor said they presented a plan to the Council last night whereby they can begin to grade and seed the area. They proposed a barter arrange- ment whereby gravel can be removed and grading done. The Council has indicated a willingness to put up $26,500 and it is anticipated the field will be graded by next Spring. Upon questioning by the Commissioners, Mr. Sartor said that Mitchell Trucking is willing to strip the top soil and set it aside, remove the gravel and grade the land to the Town's specifications, and then replace the top soil. The Town will do the seeding or sodding. Mr. Sartor noted that there are still some technical problems to overcome, and said he would also-like to talk to other people who may be interested besides Mitchell Trucking Company. The Commissioners discussed the subject of sidewalks, and Mr. Norman said when the Town comes in with a more detailed plan the Commission would like to see more consideration given to sidewalks and added that the Commission is now requiring developers to install sidewalks other than just in the confines of their projects. The possibility of sidewalks being constructed along Sand Hill Road to connect with those opposite the police station was discussed, and Mr. Sartor said that would be about a thousand feet of sidewalks which could be expensive. He raised the possibility of stonedust sidewalks, which are less expensive, and after a discussion most of the Commissioners felt concrete is preferable. Mr. Hallowell pointed out that what the Commission is talking about is about $9,000 worth of sidewalks next to a park which will cost half a million dollars. Mr. Sartor said that may be true, but pointed out that money is not available. Mr. Hallowell said that the Council just appropriated $29,000 for grading, and he doesn't think the Town should hedge about sidewalks. Mrs. Montana said there is currently another application pending before the Commission in this area, and it's possible that developer can bear some of the cost of-installing sidewalks. Mrs. Montana said the Commission is going to want to review the site plan in more detail before it is finalized. 3. App. #904 - Phase III of Wood Ponds Subdivision Town Engineer Page said there is a sightline problem on Abbe Road and he's talked to both Mr. Gerlt and Mr. Lucek and they've agreed to improve this situation. Mr. Page said the Commission may want to include this in its approval letter. Mr. Conde made a motion to modify the Commission's approval which was granted on May 17, 1983, by adding the following paragraph: 22. Beginning at the proposed intersection of Wood Pond Road and Abbe Road, the sighline to the south on Abbe Road shall be improved by regrading and other means, subject to the satis- faction of the Town Engineer. The plans shall be modified prior to filing to show this improvement. Mrs. Evans seconded the motion and it was unanimously voted in favor and so ordered. Planning and Zoning Commission 4- May 24, 1983 4. The Balf Company - Sevin Woods Subdivision Mr. Hallowell made a motion that the following amounts of surety bonds be required for the Savin Woods subdivision: 20,000 to ensure that no damage will be caused to open space and detention areas from erosion or encroachment and to ensure conformance with the open space improvement plan to be approved by this Commission; 110 , 000 to ensure completion of all subdivision improvements including roadways , sidewalks and sewers; 75 , 000 to ensure completion of grading on individual lots ($5,000 per lot Mr. Sorenson seconded the motion and it was unanimously voted in favor and so ordered. 5. Faith Tabernacle Church, Site Plan and Special Exception, John Fitch Blvd. Mrs. Evans made a motion to grant the above applicant a 90 day extension of time in which to file the final plans. The extension is from June 6, 1983 to September 4, 1983. Mr. Sorenson seconded the motion and it was unanimously voted in favor and so ordered. 6. Indian Ridge Condominiums, Special Exception and Site Plan Mrs. Evans moved the above applicant be granted a 90 day extension of time in which to file the final plans in this matter. The extension is from June 6, 1983 to September 4, 1983. Mrs. Sorosiak seconded the motion and it was unanimously voted in favor and so ordered. 7. Section IV, South Ridge Subdivision Town Engineer Page reported that the builder is doing a good job and he has gone through the subdivision and estimates that $100,000 would be sufficient to complete the subdivision improvements. Mr. Hallowell said there are some steep slopes and noted one driveway was extremely steep. Mr. Page said that house has been sold, and his concern is with water in basements and erosion, and that is under control. After further discussion Mrs. Evans made a motion to reduce the bonds required for Section IV from $180,000 to $100,000 to ensure completion of all subdivision improvements including sewers, drainage, sidewalks, curbs and roads, and $10,000 to ensure grading on individual lots. Mr. Sorenson seconded the motion and it was unanimously voted in favor and so ordered. 8. App. #912, William Krawski, Open Space Subdivision The Commissioners reviewed the plans and agreed that they did not like the open space land to the rear of the lots. Mrs. Evans said she is concerned with how the Commission can act on this application in view of the different owners and inadequate plans. Mr. Hallowell said this Commission should just consider the lots in Phase I and treat it as an application just for 16 lots in an open space subdivision and disregard the proposed lots in other phases. Mr. Sorenson said the Commission is talking about a small parcel, and the remaining proposal is almcs t ridiculous. Mrs. Evans said the plan does not conform to the regulations at all. After further discussion the Commissioners Planning and Zoning Commission 5-May 24, 1983 agreed to consider only the lots shown as being in Phase I. They reviewed the plans to determine the most desirable place for the Town to acquire open space and agreed that Lots designated #9 and #10 on the plans should be deeded to the Town for open space. Mr. Sorenson then made a motion to approve 15 lots in an open space subdivision in an AA-30 zone, located north of Bayberry Drive, between Felt Road and Foster Street, as shown on plans prepared by Lucek Engineering Assoc. , Inc. , dated 2/1/83, entitled Project No. 83-2. 1. The aforesaid plans shall be modified as follows, and said modified plans shall be submitted to this Commission for approval. 2. This approval is for lots #1, 2, 3, 4 , 5, 6 , 7 , 8, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15, 16 and 17 as shown on the plans. Said lots will be renumbered beginning with #5 and continuing on to #19. 3. The area of lots #9 and 10 as shown on the plans, together with the small parcel to the north of 410 , shall be deeded to the Town for open space. Said deed is subject to the approval of the Town Engineer and Town Attorney, and will be held in escrow until such time as the subdivision is completed and the Town Council votes to- accept this land. 4. Deeds for the proposed roadways must be submitted to this Commission prior to filing the final plans and must be approved by the Town Attorney and Town Engineer, and will be held in escrow until acceptance of the roads by the Town Council. 5. All sewer and drainage easements shown onthe plans must be sub- mitted to this Commission prior to filing the final plans and must be approved by the Town Engineer , and Town Attorney. Sewers must be accepted by the Water Pollution Control Authority prior to recording the easements. 6. All drainage in this subdivision must be redesigned to the satis- faction of the Town Engineer and this Commission. 7. The key map shall be modified so that it reflects only the lots herein approved and the open space area. Reference to other proposed future lots on the adjacent property, or future open space areas, shall be deleted. Remaining land of William Krawski shall be designated Parcel A. 8.

All lots shall be connected to the Town of South Windsor sanitary sewer system and are subject to approval of the Water Pollution Control Authority. 13. If, for any reason, finished grading and other site work is not completed, the Town Engineer shall determine the amount of a cash bond to ensure final grading and site work. This cash bond shall be submitted prior to the issuance of a Certificate of Occupancy. 14. A drainage assessment fee inthe amount of $750 shall be submitted to this Commission prior to filing the final plans. 15. A liability insurance policy shall be submitted to this Commission naming the Town of South Windsor as an insured with a combined single limit for bodily injury and/or property damage in the amount of $1, 000 , 000 . 16. The amounts of surety bonds that will be required to ensure completion of all subdivision improvements will be established at the time the modified plans are submitted to this Commission for approval. 17. Approval must be obtained from the Inland Wetlands Agency and this approval is subject to the conditions of approval of said Agency. 18. Prior to the building of any structure on a lot, a topographic map, drawn to a scale of 1" = 40 ' shall be submitted for each lot in the subdivision, showing proposed contours and elevations.

Mr. Conde seconded the motion and it was unanimously voted in favor and so ordered. 10. Tobacco Valley Sanitation, Site Plan of Development, Ident Road Gregory Montana, the architect for this project, referring to the plans, said the applicant is planning a new office addition which will be their headquarters. The existing building mill remain and the existing berm will remain, but will be shortened. Currently there are the three owners, plus 6 employees located in the building. Mrs. Evans noted that the plans show two more driveways in addition to the existing two driveways. Mr. Montana pointed out the areas to be landscaped and said the building has been designed to be maintenance free and the parking area will be bituminous. Mr. Emil Lucek said they have existing sanitary sewers flowing towards Route 5, and catch basins will be installed at the intersection of Ident and Strong Road. Mr. Page reported that they looked at all the entrances closely, but it was difficult to do it any other way. After further discussion Mr. Sorenson made a motion to approve this application as shown on plans prepared by Gregory Louis Montana & Associates, dated May 10, 1983, and Lucek Engineering Assoc. , Inc. , dated April 30, 1983, subject to the following modifications: 1. The plot plan and topographic plan shall be combined onto one sheet which should be entitled "Plot Plan and Topographic Sheet". 2.

Mr. Norman seconded the motion and it was unanimously voted in favor and so ordered. 11. Burr Meadow Condominiums - Phase II Mr. Hallowell made a motion to continue the meeting beyond 10:30 P. M. Mrs. Evans seconded the motion and it was unanimously voted in favor and so ordered. Mr. Ray Alexander pointed out on the plans Phase II which consists of 32 units. He noted it will be as originally shown on the plans, however, the two-bedroom town house is not selling as fast as they anticipated. Therefore, they would like to change the town houses to two-bedroom flats. They will have the same number of units, but the buildings will be shorter. The flats will be one on top of the other, rather than two town houses adjacent to each other. Planning and Zoning Commission 8-May 24, 1983 The second floor units appear to sell better than the first floor units. Mr. Alexander said they are requesting that the $100,000 bond currently being held by the Commission be rolled over to cover Phase II. Mr. Page, Town Engineer, reported that the Town has had tremendous cooperation from these builders. The Commissioners questioned the fact that some of the landscaping has not been completed, and asked about the recreational facilities. Mr. Alexander said that weather has been a problem, but they hope to complete as much of the landscaping as possible by the end of June. Mr. Sorenson then made a motion to approve Phase II of Burr Meadow Condominiums consisting of 32 units located in Buildings #8, #9 and #10, as shown on plans prepared by Palmberg & Russo, dated 8/15/81, revised tD 3.2/4/82, entitled Proj. No. 2381, subject to the following modifications: 1. The plans shall be modified to show the correct size of the buildings. 2. The $100,000 bond currently being held by this Commission shall be amended to indicate that Phase II, as well as Phase I, of this development is covered by said bond. 3. No certificates of occupancy will be issued for any units in Phase II until all major recreational facilities are completed subject to this Commission's approval. 4. The revised plans showing Phase II must be reproduced on mylars and submitted to this Commission to be stamped and signed and filed in the Town Clerk's Office. The letter of approval of this Commission must be reproduced on said plans before filing same. 5. A drainage assessment fee in the amount of $1,600 must be submitted to the Town of South Windsor. Mrs. Sorosiak seconded the motion and it was unanimously voted in favor and so ordered. Mr. Sorenson moved the meeting be adjourned at 10:50 P. M. Mrs. Sorosiak seconded the motion and it was unaniomously voted in favor and so ordered. Respe tfully submitte , g. -InA S.

Public Works Director Robert Arsenault informed the Commission that they had talked to four contractors after being approached by Mitchell Trucking, including Savin Bros. , and no one else was interested in the gravel on this site. The Town is hoping to have the facility in use by Spring of next year, and they will present a formal site plan and special exception application to the Commission in the Fall. They are here this evening to get permission to regrade this property so that it will be level. Mr. Arsenault said that Mitchell Trucking is anxious to start as soon as possible. The Town Council approved waiving bids and authorized the Town Manager to enter into an agreement with Mitchell Trucking, and approved an appropriation of $26, 500. Referring to the plan presented to the Commission, Mr. Arsenault said that Park #1 is about 10 acres and the area shown on the map where the work will be done is about 53 acres. He said for $26, 000 the Town will get the grading done, bring in top soil, get an irrigation system and eventua lly some parking and also a back stop. mr. Page clarified that to move 25,000 yards costs about $1 a yard, Planning & Zoning Commission 8- 6/7/83 and it would, therefore, cost about $25,000 to move the earth, and Mitchell will do this and take the gravel thereby saving the Town the money. The $26, 500 appropriated by the Council will cover the cost of the other things. Mr. Hallowell said he thought this plan was just to do some regrading but a parking area is shown, as well as a ballfield and other things. Mr. Arsenault assured him that they will come back this Fall with a site plan and nothing will be done about parking areas until the site plan is approved. He reiterated that all they are doing now is getting it level by removing the gravel. He said that when they c o me back with the site plan in the fall, however, they do plan to show a ballfield in this location. The Town Engineer produced cut-outs of ballfields , and showed the various possibilities for laying them out. He told the Commission that the only thing being presented this evening is the grading plan. After further discussion Mrs. Montana asked Mr. Arsenault if they Town would have their application ready to be be received by the Commission at the September 6th Regular Meeting, and Mr. Arsenault said yes. Mrs. Montana said that a public hearing would be scheduled as soon after that date as possible. The Commission asked Mr. Arsenault the length of time for which he would like the regrading approval, and he said until the end of November. The Commissioners didn' t think this would be necessary since the Town would submit an application in September and a public hearing would be held shortly thereafter. Mr. Hallowell suggested they be granted an approval for regrading to October 15th, with the right to get an extension. Mr. Hallowell pointed out that to remove that amount of gravel would require about 1, 000 truckloads leaving the site during the 120 day period. Mrs. Evans noted that based on her past experience on this Commission for the last 16 years, she questions whether this can be accomplished. She expressed concerns that the project would be started, and not completed for a long period of time, leaving the area in an unsightly condition. Mr. Hallowell said the Commission should have a bond from Mitchell Trucking to ensure that this project is properly completed. Mr. Gilligan pointed out that the Commission can' t require a bond from the Town and Mitchell is really working on the Town' s behalf. Mrs. Evans noted that perhaps this project should be completed in phases, and Mr. Arsenault said the Town Attorney would be preparing a contract with Mitchell. Mr. Gilligan agreed that based on past experience he didn' t think anyone could move that much gravel that fast. Mr. Norman said the Commission should include in its approval letter a strong recommendation that the Town take steps to ensure that the site is properly graded and seeded within the specified time. After further discussion, Mr. Norman made a motion to approve the regrading plan for the Nevers Road Park, as shown on the plan prepared Planning & Zoning Commission 9- 6/7/83 by the Bureau of Engineering dated June 7, 1983, subject to the following conditions: 1. This permit will expire on October 15, 1983 , however, it is understood this Commission may consider a request for an extension. 2. Hours of operation are limited to 7 a. m. to 7 p. m. on week- days, and from 8 a. m. to 2 p. m. on Saturdays. No operations are permitted on Sundays. 3. Access to the site will be through the existing gravel roadway on Sand Hill Road approximately 700 ' east of Nevers Road. No access will be permitted from Nevers Road, and no trucks hauling gravel from the site will be permitted on Nevers Road. Based on its past experiences with this type of operation, the Commission strongly recommends that the Town take steps to ensure that the site is properly graded and seeded within the specified time. It may be desirable to implement a phasing schedule so that large areas of the site are not disturbed at any one time. Mr. Gilligan seconded the motion and it was unanimously voted in favor and so ordered. Mrs . Montana reiterated that the Commission expects the Town to submit an application for a Special Exception and site plan on September 6th. There being no further business Mr. Conde moved the meeting be adjourned, and Mrs. Evans seconded the motion. It was unanimously voted and so ordered. Respectfully submit d, V"cgrini S.
