Lipe 1540 Sullivan Ave. South Windsor, CT 06074 Re: Temporary and Conditional Permit #22-46P Renewal; 416 John Fitch Blvd. (Michels Power Yard) Dear Michele M. Lipe: Please see attached Michels Power Inc.’s fully executed application for the renewal of its Temporary and Conditional Permit for outside storage at 416 John Fitch Blvd., South Windsor, Connecticut (the “Property”). Michels currently leases the Property from the Dennis Botticello and John D. LaBelle Jr. Trustees of the Residuary and Exempt Trusts Under the Will of Anthony Botticello (abbreviated in the application due to space constraints), a Trustee of which has signed the application in support of the permit renewal. After discussions with a member of your staff regarding the Town of South Windsor’s permit renewal requirements, Michels has attached a brief narrative of its proposed continued use of the Property, along with a previously completed Site Plan from J.R. Russo & Associates. Michels will continue its previously approved use of the Property as an outside storage area for its power line equipment, tooling, and materials. The use further entails the continuation of parking of vehicles and trucks for brief periods, and as a staging ground where Michels personnel will meet in the morning to discuss crew assignments and safety matters. There is no active work performed on the Property, nor is there any bulk fuel storage. Furthermore, the overall usage of the Property has not materially deviated from the Site Plan. Should the Planning & Zoning Commission have any questions, or require additional clarification or information, please do not hesitate to contact us. Respectfully, Martin P.

A request for renewal of a two-year temporary and conditional permit for the storage for a temporary staging area and equipment storage for an EverSource contractor, on property located at 416 John Fitch Boulevard, I zone. 2. The PZC had previously permitted this storage in 2019; and renewed again in January of 2023. 3. The applicant is leases approximately 5 acres of property from the Botticello family adjacent to the CT soils operations. 4. The proposed storage area is approximately 200+ feet from Route 5 and is accessed through the private drive off of Route 5. The site historically had industrial uses many years ago, including manufacturing and storing of bricks. As a part of the previous approvals, the applicants had cleaned up the property including an extensive amount of equipment, old building materials and debris. Today, the equipment stored includes machinery as well as mats and poles and covers approximately 4 acres. 5. There is an existing access drive into the site and parking area for employees that arrive daily to the equipment trailer before being sent out to job sites. Trucks exiting the site and heading south on Route 5 will use the Chapel Road access drive. 6. There is no active work done on the property and there is no storage of petroleum products. 7. Storage yards are not permitted unless there is a building, therefore the need for a T& C. 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, The Planning Department has no modifications to request.
