Applicants outline building, traffic, hours and Dark Sky lighting plan for Masterson site
Summary
Applicants presented a two-story 80' x 120' building with a 1.75-acre parking area, estimated 15'020 employees, and an additional ~100 one-way trips per day; they said Act 250 and wastewater permits exist and a construction stormwater permit is pending, and they agreed to motion-activated lighting to meet the Town's Dark Sky policy.
At the July 6 meeting applicants provided detailed elements of the proposed Masterson site on Kings Way. Greg McKenney and Josh Masterson said Lot 3 (about 2.6 acres) and Lot 4 (about 2.1 acres) would support two businesses, with "15-20 employees onsite" and a 1.75-acre impervious parking area that includes 12 customer spaces on the west side and employee parking on the east. The applicants estimated "100 one-way trips/day" of additional traffic and noted a traffic study by the Addison County Solid Waste Management District is on file with the Town.
The applicants described lighting and operational controls intended to limit off-site impacts. The proposal lists "10 downcast lights along the perimeter of the parking lot mounted on 20' posts; 2 flood-style lights on the south side of the building mounted at 20' and casting light at a downward angle; 2 LED Wall Packs installed on both the western and eastern side of the building; and 1 Wall Pack on the northern building entrance." Noting the Town's Dark Sky policy, applicants said they would program the lighting with a photo eye and install motion-activated fixtures around the perimeter for security. They proposed business hours of 6 a.m. to 6 p.m. Monday through Friday and 7 a.m. to 5 p.m. on Saturdays, with limited office operations on Sundays and an allowance for emergency operations outside those hours.
