CORRESPONDENCE
Vice Chairman Hickey reported receipt of a notice regarding a presentation by the Town of East Windsor concerning terrace escarpment slopes. Correspondence also includes a Notice of Action from the Enfield Zoning Board of Appeals and a copy of the Minutes of the Inland Wetlands and Water Courses Agency.
Commissioner Duren noted on the table tonight is wetlands permit #442 for the utility installation and driveway paving within 100’ of wetlands at 31 Somers Road.
Commissioner Hickey stated other Correspondence includes a notice from the American Planning Association regarding their National Planning Conference in April, 2006 in San Antonio, and a letter notifying the Commission of a chapter meeting of the Connecticut Chapter of the American Planning Association about the recent eminent domain ruling in New London.
Commissioner Egan stated he received a letter dated July 11, 2005 regarding Grandview Drive. The letter reads as follows: “At the last P&Z Meeting of July 7, 2005 I posed some questions about Grandview Drive construction of a drainage ditch and possible feeding into the main sewer lines on the street. I questioned whether permits were pulled with P&Z certification, whether engineering tests were done by the flow of water and whether it is tied into the main sewer drains on the street. Apparently, in my opinion, none of these regulations were followed. I asked through the Chairperson of the Commission to be notified and I was never. Could you pose that question tonight through the Chairman and to Mr. Giner again? If rules were not followed, what are the ramifications and/or penalties that the town would assess to the builder?” Commissioner Egan stated this letter is signed by Mr. Reginald Leonard, 42 Fairfield Road.
Commissioner Egan asked for a response to Mr. Leonard’s question regarding whether there was any follow-up. Mr. Giner stated he did contact the Engineering Department. He stated the roads, once accepted, are under the jurisdiction of the Department of Public Works. Jeff Bord and John Cabibbo visited Grandview Drive and did determine that some work had occurred. They were going to contact the developer. Mr. Giner stated he has not heard back since their visit to the site. Mr. Bord and Mr. Cabibbo did state that permits would have been necessary from their department to tie into the storm sewer. Mr. Giner stated when he hears from Engineering, he will contact Mr. Leonard and the Commission with the final results. Chairman DiPace stated a status report phone call to Mr. Leonard from Mr. Giner would have been in order.
Chairman DiPace asked once the town accepts the road, because there is a change, shouldn’t there be some type of modification needed. Mr. Giner stated according to the Engineering Department, they should have gotten a permit to do the work that was done. John Cabibbo was going to contact the homeowner or the builder to make sure they got the proper permits, find out what they did and what impact it might have on the system.
Chairman Duren read a letter from Dana Steele of J. R. Russo regarding Public Hearing #2517, Brainard Gardens, and requesting the postponement of this public hearing until September 8, 2005 to provide sufficient time for the Planning Department to publish corrected notices. The applicant also agreed to grant the Commission a twenty-one day extension of the standard sixty-five day time limit in which to open the public hearing.
Commissioner Hickey made a motion, seconded by Commissioner Weseliza, to accept the request for an extension for PH#2517, Brainard Gardens, for an additional twenty-one days. The motion was approved by a 7 – 0 – 0 vote.
COMMISSIONERS’ CORRESPONDENCE
Chairman DiPace noted receipt of a letter from the Capitol Region Council of Governments regarding the cancellation of scheduled meetings on Thursday, July 21, 2005 and August 18, 2005. Their next meeting will be Thursday, September 15, 2005 in the West Hartford Town Hall.
PUBLIC HEARINGS - Continued from July 7, 2005 meeting
a. PH#2516- Special Use Permit for construction of a 30,000 square foot medical office building with associated site improvements at 855 Enfield Street and 5, 7, 9 and 11 Elm Street, zoned BL, Map 26, Lots 23, 24, 25, 26, 27 and a portion of 118, A&L Troiano Family LLC, Applicant/Owner.
Dave Ziaks from F. A. Hesketh Associates, Frank Troiano representing the applicant, and Dan Tuttle from the architect’s office appeared before the Commission regarding this application.
Mr. Ziaks stated at the last meeting, they went through the application in great detail and responded to Commission questions. One of the major outstanding items was the receipt of the final report from the Inland Wetlands Agency. They were successful in obtaining that Wetlands permit this past Tuesday night. None of the conditions imposed by the Inland Wetlands will change the site plan in any significant way.
Mr. Ziaks stated they worked with the Town Engineer and addressed his comments. He has one outstanding comment which is a minor technical issue with one catch basin and the Director of Planning has included that item as a proposed condition of approval. Mr. Ziaks stated the Commission now has a report from the Fire Marshal that was outstanding at the last hearing session. The Fire Marshal indicates that his concerns have been addressed and notes one outstanding issue he would like to address as a condition concerning the easement that provides for the access and the maintenance between the two uses on the site. Mr. Ziaks stated they worked with Mr. Giner on the suggested conditions before the Commission. One is the process would be broken down into two parts. One would be that a draft of those easements would be presented to Town staff prior to any issuance of a building permit on the site. The final version of those would be reported on the land records before the c.o. for the medical center was issued. The reason for this is to give three sets of attorneys sufficient time to determine the language.
Mr. Ziaks stated the Fire Marshal was concerned about the common driveway that goes into the two uses and who was responsible for snow removal and related items. This issue was addressed.
Mr. Ziaks confirmed that the applicant has no comment or concerns regarding the proposed conditions. He requested that the Commission close the hearing tonight and take action on this application in order for them to construct the common driveway beginning later this summer and into the fall. This would avoid them having to construct the old driveway and then having to tear it out later next year.
Commissioner Duren asked if a lighting schematic was done regarding the light staying on the property. Mr. Ziaks stated they have provided a lighting plan. The intention is to go with minimal lighting around the building and the flag for security after normal business hours. Mr. Ziaks stated the lighting plan is an extension of the theme that was approved for the bank with decorative colonial style lamps. Mr. Ziaks stated spill over to the north into the wetlands was a big issue with the Wetlands Commission.
Commissioner Egan stated the Fire Marshal referred to plans of June 24, 2005 and wanted a list of changes made to those plans. The Commission has since received plans dated July 14, 2005. He asked if the changes have been incorporated into these plans. Mr. Ziaks stated the Fire Marshal wanted an additional hydrant and some additional fire lane signage around the property. Those have been incorporated into the plans but because there are plans before this Commission and Wetlands, Mr. Giner is dealing with these items as conditions of approval.
Commissioner Duren questioned what the final rooftop design would look like. Mr. Ziaks stated the drawing shows white but the intent is to have it a more gray color in the roof area. Commissioner Duren asked if the scale for the top is the same scale as for the rest since to him it looks out of place.
Mr. Tuttle stated the intent is to make the color near the top of the building more of a gray with some white trim on it. The height is there to screen the mechanical equipment and the screen is approximately 7’6” tall. They may be able to lower this a little bit once everything is in place. Mr. Tuttle stated it won’t look that white on the actual building. He added the roof is a charcoal gray and the intent was to have the trim a little lighter with white trim similar to the window trim and the trim around the front door. Mr. Troiano added the intent is to not have white as shown on the drawing at the roof line. They have no problem bringing it closer to the color of the building which is more of a light gray. Chairman DiPace stated the top row looks darker than the lower row on the drawing. Mr. Troiano stated the lower row is a mid point between the gray on the top level and the white to the right. They were leaning toward the color of the top level in order to have it blend. He stated the computer graphics do not accurately reflect the color.
Mr. Giner suggested adding condition 18, prior to signing, the final mylars shall contain all the revisions required by the Town Engineer and the Fire Marshal to the list of conditions.
Chairman DiPace complimented the applicant on the appearance of this building.
Chairman DiPace opened this public hearing to the audience.
Ruth Presto, 181 Elm Street, stated as she looks at this architectural rendering and considering the bank that is also being built on Elm and Enfield Street, she is wondering if the Town of Enfield is building a city at the expense of the residents. She asked if there is any consideration at all for the quality of life for people who live in Enfield. She looks at the leap frog development on Elm Street starting at Enfield Street and going all the way down to Shaker Road and Elm. This is what Ms. Presto considers the other eminent domain because life is made so miserable for people that live on the street and it’s so dangerous that it is crowding out the residents. Ms. Presto stated she lives in a home with gardens that she has put a lot of time and work into and she looks at what is happening. This medical building looks to her like something that should be in a city because the size of it is all out of scale with what presently exists on the street. She feels the Commission probably has future plans for Elm Street and this will tie in perfectly with the future plans. Presently she lives on Elm Street and a lot of other people live in single-family homes and she felt what the Commission is doing is very unfair and not any better than what was done to residents in New London. She asked if there were any developers in this room that would pay her enough for her property on Elm Street so that she can find a comparable home in a peaceful community that isn’t so gung ho to jack up the tax base and drive out all the good citizens. Ms. Presto stated it doesn’t seem that this Commission gives any consideration to the people that were the pioneers of this community and instead they are all for corporate America.
Sal Presto, 181 Elm Street, noted two years ago there was #3 Elm Street, an eighteenth century house and the town allowed, perhaps without knowing, the owner of that property to cannibalize that piece of property. The owner sold all the eighteenth century interior so that the house would look like a total wreck. At that time, they also tried to get CVS on that property and it was disallowed. Now it is years later with CVS on the other side of the street and the building that is on Enfield Street is a beautiful building. He would like to see other buildings of that quality built if they have to be built. Mr. Presto questioned how do we as a town make assessments as to why CVS doesn’t go on the north side but it goes on the south side and why one person is denied and another granted approval.
Chairman DiPace closed this public hearing.
Commissioner Duren made a motion, seconded by Commissioner Cooper, to approve PH#2516 - Special Use Permit for construction of a 30,000 square foot medical office building with associated site improvements at 855 Enfield Street and 5, 7, 9 and 11 Elm Street, zoned BL, Map 26, Lots 23, 24, 25, 26, 27 and a portion of 118, A&L Troiano Family LLC, Applicant/Owner, subject to conformance with the referenced Plans and the following conditions:

PUBLIC HEARINGS - NEW
a. PH# 2512- Petition for a Text Change to Section 4.30.6 of the Zoning Regulations regarding Continuing Care Communities to change the minimum age requirements from 62 to 55. Scott J. Nielsen, Applicant.
Scott Nielsen appeared before the Commission regarding this application and distributed a brief notice regarding this application. He stated he previously discussed with the Commission a proposed text change for continuing care communities. He noted continuing care communities as outlined in the zoning ordinance has not been utilized by developers and yet it has a real value. From their market research, they have found that the age requirement of sixty-two plus has unduly restricted that market. They are suggesting a minor age requirement change and believe this will, as in other communities, make this a more viable development method. As four million people turn sixty-five every year, there is a greater need for communities that include segments such as active adults, independent living, assisted living and then nursing home care. Mr. Nielsen stated they believe this particular age group of baby boomers can be a valuable addition. They have had a lot of experience with such projects and overall baby boomers provide a positive ratio of higher taxes to fewer services and yet make significant contributions to the quality of life in their communities.
Mr. Giner stated correspondence has been received from the Capitol Region Council of Governments and they find no apparent conflicts with regional plans by this proposed amendment.
Chairman DiPace opened this hearing to the public. No one spoke in favor or against this application. Chairman DiPace closed this public hearing.
Commissioner Hickey made a motion, seconded by Commissioner Duren, to approve PH#2512, petition for a text change to Section 4.30.6 of the Enfield Zoning Regulations regarding Continuing Care Communities to change the minimum age requirements from 62 to 55 with an effective date of August 15, 2005.
The motion was approved by a 7 – 0 – 0 vote.

This public hearing will be heard on September 8, 2005. There was a flaw in the legal notice necessitating postponement. A twenty-one day extension was granted by the applicant as discussed previously in this meeting.
