The proposed storage area,approximately one acre in size,will utilize the existing grass surface with limited brush-clearing to support the anticipated density of vehicles.Hartford Truck Equipment is a South Windsor-based,family-owned and -operated truck upfitter and equipment distributor currently operating at the adjacent 95 John Fitch Boulevard and 67 McGuire Road.The business is the flnal assembly point for many types of new commercial vehicles and upfits trucks and other vehicles with truck beds,liftable truck beds,and truck bodies,and accessories such as snow plows,salters,and sanders. The storage area is sized to accommodate 100-12’x20’truck parking spaces,in two double-stacked rows with a 24’drive aisle in between.The increased size of these spaces will allow sufficient room for the vehicles to be parked without providing striping throughout the entire area.There is also a minimum of 12’between the anticipated parking spaces and the 10’side yard setback to the east.Providing 12’of intended drive aisle in addition to the regulated setback allows a portion of the existing vegetation to remain near the eastern neighboring businesses without encroaching on differing uses.As per the original PZC approval for this T&C permit,the subject truck storage area is screened from the King Street neighborhood by a temporary wood mulch berm,approximately 12’in height.That temporary berm will become unnecessary once the earthen berm and evergreen plantings have been installed on the adjoining 3.3 acre conservation easement (now under construction). Providing temporary storage for the incoming vehicles will reduce demand on the existing facility lot at 95 John Fitch Boulevard to fit the trucks and associated truck beds and bodies prior to fabrication.The delivery of these vehicles will utilize the existing curb cuts along John Fitch Boulevard (US Route 5):a full movement driveway at the northeastern corner of the site;and a right-in/right-out access driveway at the southeastern corner of the site.Once the vehicles have reached the site,they will not leave the facility until the appropriate upfitting is complete and they are ready to be released to their client.There will be no adverse impacts to the traffic entering and leaving the site on a daily basis due to the temporary nature of the storage area. We trust that the above and enclosed information is sufficient for the application t0 be renewed, and look forward to working with the Commission and Town staff as the balance of the development moves forward (under a separate site plan application).

PSN 7530-02-000-909B ©···esignrofessionals App # 22-31P, Hartford Truck T & C Permit Renewal PH 9/13/22 1. This is a request for the renewal of a two-year temporary and conditional permit for a truck storage area on property located at 542 King Street, GC zone. 2. The original temporary and conditional permit was issued in 2021 for 1 year, and expired on August 17, 2021. 3. The storage area is approximately 1 acre in size. 4. The applicant has provided a site layout of the proposed storage area. The location is directly behind two businesses on Route 5 and abuts residentially zoned land that extends to King Street, and is owned by the applicant. 5. The site is a sandy lot with grass vegetation. The storage area, which has already been installed, is surrounded by a chain link fence, can accommodate 100 – 12’x20’ truck parking spaces, with a 24 foot wide drive aisle between them. The intent is to store new trucks in this area until they are fitted out with truck beds, bodies and other accessories tailored for each customer. 6. All vehicles will be dropped off at the existing business for Hartford Truck at 95 John Fitch Boulevard and moved into this area from there. There is no access proposed from King Street. 7. The original approval required screening by a temporary wood mulch berm. This was constructed, however an earthen berm with evergreen plantings is currently being constructed to screen the site from the King Street neighborhood. 8. The applicant has submitted a site plan showing expansion of the existing business into this area, and anticipates that if approved, the expansion will eliminate the need for the temporary and conditional permit. 9. The wording of the T & C permit regulation is that, “Temporary and conditional permits may be granted by the Commission for a period not to exceed 2 years. Such approval may be given after a public hearing if, in the judgment of the Commission, the public convenience and welfare will be 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.” If this application is approved, staff would recommend that applicant submit site plan for this permitted use including addressing the buffer requirements. 4 PLANNING DEPARTMENT y r o � c o September 15, 2022 CERTIFIED MAIL 7022 2410 0000 6508 2537 Daniel Jameson C/O McGuire Road Associates, LLC 21 Jeffrey Drive South Windsor, CT 06074 Dear Mr. Jameson, Re: Appl. 22-31P Hartford Truck Equipment LLC Temporary and Conditional Permit We are pleased to advise you that the Planning & Zoning Commission voted on September 13, 2022 to approve with conditions the above referenced application.
