July 6, 2020 Mr. Chris Flinn Town of Jericho Planning + Zoning Office July 6, 2020 Mr. Chris Flinn Town of Jericho Planning + Zoning Office P.O. Box 39, 2nd Floor Jericho, VT 05465 Subject: Charron – 9 Lot Subdivision Zoning Application Dear Mr. Flinn: On behalf of Brenda and Lee Charron, we are pleased to provide you with the enclosed items which are intended to serve as Sketch Plan Review application for the proposed subdivision of a 115.97 acre parcel of land owned by the Charron’s off Route 15 in Jericho. The parcel is accessed via an existing curb cut off of VT Route 15 and is located in the Town zoned Forestry District (FOR) which has a minimum lot size of 10 acres. Based on our understanding of the Zoning Regulations, the allowable residential density allows for up to 11 lots. The Charron’s are proposing to only subdivide nine residential building lots as noted in this application. Improvements to the existing farm road are planned to upgrade it to Town standards. This private gravel roadway will provide access to the lots which are being designed to have individual onsite wastewater disposal systems and drilled water wells. For the Board’s review and consideration, we have enclosed: 1. Signed and completed Town of Jericho Zoning Permit Application Form, 2. Application fee in the amount of $100.00 payable to the “Town of Jericho”, 3. Project Narrative, 4. Listing of Adjoining Landowners, 5. Full size Survey Plat, prepared by Timothy Short, L.S. entitled “Proposed Boundary Line Adjustments, Lands of Brenda & Charles L. Charron, Southeasterly of Vermont Route 15, Jericho, Chittenden County, Vermont”, dated February 7, 2020, last revised March 13, 2020. 6. Full size subdivision plan, prepared by Otter Creek Engineering, Inc. titled ‘Brenda & L. Charles Charron, 9 Lot Subdivision, Jericho, Vermont”, dated July 6 2020. 7. Reduced scale (11 x 17) Natural Resource plan, prepared by Otter Creek Engineering, Inc. Brenda & L. Charles Charron, 9 Lot Subdivision, Jericho, Vermont”, dated July 6, 2020. Following your review of the materials provided, if you have any questions or require additional information, please feel free to contact me at your earliest convenience. We look forward to meeting with the Board as soon as practical to discuss this application. Sincerely, Brent F. Rakowski, P.E. Senior Project Engineer c: Brenda and Lee Charron Enclosures /7/ 970-001 P2 TOWN OF JERICHO – ZONING NARRATIVE Brenda & L. Charles Charron 9-Lot Subdivision July 6, 2020 Project Narrative Brenda and Lee Charron are the owners of a 115.97 acre parcel located along VT Route 15 in Jericho. The parcel along with other adjoining lands had previously been a part of a prior Town permit application process. The Charron’s understand that the timeline for those prior approvals has since expired and, similarly, their approach to the development of the property has changed. For this project, the Charron’s are seeking to subdivide the 115.97 acre parcel. The parcel is located in the Town zoned Forestry District (FOR). An existing curb cut off of VT Route 15 currently provides access to the property. In addition, an existing single family lot maintains an access easement across the Charron’s parcel and utilizes a portion of existing farm road to access their property. The remainder of the farm road continues up the hillside into the site. The Charron’s are seeking to subdivide this 115.97 acre parcel, depicted as Lot ‘C’ on the attached survey plat prepared by Tim Short, L.S. Per the Zoning Regulations, the allowable permitted residential density allows for the development of up to 11 lots. The Charron’s are proposing only 9 lots as part of the subdivision. Included in the application materials is the subdivision plan, which is also intended to serve as a Density Plan. Single family dwellings are a permittable use in the FOR District. With more than 3 proposed lots, the application is being developed to comply with the Planned Unit Development (PUD) standards. As such, the dimensional requirements for all lots, with exception to the buffer zone for Lot 1, have been established based on Table 5.8 of the Regulations. The 100 foot buffer provision for Lot 1 constricts the viability for building on this lot and offers little in terms of mitigating the effect on the neighboring residential parcel. A waiver of the 100 ft buffer requirement for this lot is requested to be revised to 15 feet. The plan provided Refer to the subdivision plan enclosed for lot sizes and setbacks. Based on our understanding of the Regulations, the proposed project will be reviewed as a major subdivision under the Subdivision, Planned Unit Development, and General Development review standards. Access to the proposed lots will be via the existing curb cut off VT Route 15. The existing farm road, however, will be upgraded and improved to comply with Town Road Standards. The Charron’s are seeking a waiver to two of the road standards: roadway width and cut/fill slopes. Specifically, since the private road will serve 9 lots, the standard of a 22 foot wide roadway with 2 foot shoulders is excessive in this instance and not in keeping with the rural character the Charron’s are attempting to maintain for the development. Instead, a roadway width of 18 feet (9 foot lanes) is proposed for this private development road. Parking for no less than 2 parking spaces is proposed to be provided on each individual lot and conceptual drive locations have also been depicted. A waiver of cut/fill slope requirements from 3 ft horizontal to 1 foot vertical to 2 ft horizontal to 1 ft vertical is also being requested. We understand that a formal request to the Town Selectboard is required for these two waiver requests. Based on the rural nature of the roadway (i.e. low volume, low speed), it is anticipated that the private development road will also serve to provide safe and convenient pedestrian access. Curbs and/or sidewalks for pedestrians installed along this private gravel road are not in keeping with the rural character of the proposed development. A plan depicting the lot layout and conformance with the regulations is included in these application materials. The rehabilitation and adjustment of the private development road is intended to retain and minimize as much of the natural terrain and slopes as possible. Work will be in compliance with applicable State Erosion Prevention & Sediment Control Standards and the State’s ‘Low Risk Handbook’. The Charron’s are considering the preserving up to 15% of the development area as easements. The area considered is the higher elevation portions of Lot 9 and keep it as open space in keeping with the Town goals for the overlay district. Water supply and wastewater disposal will be provided on each residential lot. New drilled wells are intended to provide water supply and in ground disposal field will be utilized to dispose of wastewater. State Potable Water Supply and Wastewater Disposal permit approval will be required. The design, permitting and construction of these systems will be in accordance with the State Rules. The layout of the development is in keeping with the rural landscape of this district. Encroachments into the steep slopes and prominent ridgelines and hillsides is minimized. No lighting or outdoor display of sales or display areas are proposed. These areas will be further defined and regulated as part of the deeds and covenants developed for this subdivision. Buried electrical, telecommunication and cable TV are anticipated to serve the development. These will be located within dedicated easements along the private roadway easement. The proposed project will create more than one acre of impervious surface, as such it will be subject to State Stormwater Permitting Standards. Accommodations for the conveyance and treatment of runoff will be in accordance with these standards. Proposed impervious surfaces will be treated primarily via infiltration into the underlay gravel and sandy soils. As noted previously, construction activities will follow with the Vermont handbook for Erosion Prevention and Sediment Control. An Erosion Control permit from the State will obtained for the proposed project. There is not expected to be any instances where, when measured at the property line, the Performance Standards as noted in Section11.14 of the Regulations will be exceeded. Deed and Covenant documents outlining the use of public/private lands, rights of way, and easements will be provided with subsequent application materials. BRENDA AND L.

  • Using Nepa to Arrive at an Affordable, Effective, and Environmentally Responsible Solution for Vermont’S Transportation Future
    ADDRESSING THE LAND USE, ENVIRONMENTAL QUALITY, AND TRANSPORTATION CONNECTION IN CHITTENDEN COUNTY, VERMONT: USING NEPA TO ARRIVE AT AN AFFORDABLE, EFFECTIVE, AND ENVIRONMENTALLY RESPONSIBLE SOLUTION FOR VERMONT’S TRANSPORTATION FUTURE James Murphy*† INTRODUCTION Sprawl is no accident. An offspring of the fossil fuel age, sprawl is the result of policy and investment choices our society has made over the last fifty to one hundred years. One of the most fundamental of these choices is the heavy investment we have made in highway infrastructure to accommodate the automobile. If we intend to address the environmental and other problems created by sprawl, we must recognize how major transportation infrastructure investments affect growth patterns. This Article concerns a major proposed belt-highway project in the Burlington, Vermont region. The highway’s projected cost is about $223 million and climbing—a once-in-a-generation transportation investment for the state. Vermont, which is known for its sound environmental stewardship, faces a major choice for its future. Proponents of the highway feel it is a long-delayed necessity to relieve congestion and foster economic growth. Opponents of the highway contend that it will do little more than open up undeveloped land to further sprawl with few benefits and tremendous expense. This Article will examine whether the National Environmental Policy Act of 1969 (NEPA)1—which requires that environmental impacts from major federal actions, like highway projects, be examined and that alternatives be considered2—has proved a useful tool for ensuring that * Wetlands and Water Resources Counsel for the National Wildlife Federation; LL.M. 2006, Vermont Law School; J.D.

  • A Century of Landslide Activity in Glaciolacustrine Deposits in Jeffersonville, Vermont, USA
    A Century of Landslide Activity in Glaciolacustrine Deposits in Jeffersonville, Vermont, USA Springston, G.E. MSc., Sevi, Adam F. P.E. Ph.D. & Kanat, Leslie. Ph.D. Department of Geology and Environmental Science – Norwich University, Northfield, VT, USA Department of Civil and Environmental Engineering – Norwich University, Northfield, VT, USA Department of Environmental and Health Sciences – Johnson State College, Johnson, VT, USA ABSTRACT At least five complex earth slide–flows have occurred over the past century on the side of a 46-m-high terrace adjacent to the Village of Jeffersonville, Vermont, USA. At least two of the landslides crossed the Brewster River and reached the edge of the village. Residences at the top could be at risk and the run-out zone for future slides could include a school, shops, and residences. The slope is underlain by varved glaciolacustrine sands, silts, and clays. The causes of instability include toe erosion by the river and high pore-pressure due to rain or snowmelt. Areas of concern have been identified along the northern part of the slope and above the school. RÉSUMÉ Au moins cinq glissement–écoulement de terrain complexes ont eu lieu depuis un siècle sur le flanc d'une terrasse de 46 m de haut près du Village de Jeffersonville, Vermont, USA. Au moins deux des glissements de terrain ont traversé la rivière Brewster et atteint le bord du village. Résidences au sommet pourraient être en péril et la zone de battement pour glissements futures pourrait comprendre une école, commerces et résidences. La pente est sous-tendue par les argiles, limons et sables glacio-lacustres varvées.

  • Town Report 2017
    Cambridge, Vermont FISCAL YEAR 2017 ANNUAL REPORT Cambridge Greenway Trail Bridge Based on a flood modeling study the Cambridge Greenway/Railroad Bridge over the Brewster River was determined to be significantly undersized. The former bridge had a span of 52 feet and a low chord elevation of 454.1’ For reference, this was below the 100-year flood elevation (460.57’ and the 10-year flood elevation (457.43) As a result, the bridge was impacted by flood waters on an almost annual basis. The bridge was replaced with an adequately sized and proportioned bridge. The project involved removing the existing abutments and restoring the floodplain in the vicinity of the abutments. The longer, higher bridge span will allow passage of more water out of the village and reduce the constriction of the channel. This will reduce the potential of flooding in the Village of Jeffersonville. A second separate but nearby flood mitigation project will be constructed during spring 2018 to replace two culverts that pass under Vermont Route 15 in Jeffersonville. Additional native plantings will be added to the floodplain and bank areas in the spring. Old bridge removal Flooding August 2017 event February 2017 Welcome to Town Meeting!
