Owner, Potter Realty V, LLC Site Plan Review for Light Industrial Property Improvements Project Narrative This proposal involves a 0.94± acre parcel of land identified as 14 Enterprise Lane in the Oakdale section of the Town of Montville, Connecticut (Assessor's ID# 002-005-00D). The subject property currently contains a 1,627± square foot commercial building and gravel/millings outdoor storage and truck parking areas. Vehicles and materials related to the business are also stored on-site. The existing structure is proposed to be used for warehousing of recreational vehicle accessories prior to shipment. The proposed truck parking spaces are proposed to be used for overnight parking of tractor trailers in transit periodically during the spring, summer and fall. This plan depicts proposed improvements to the subject property intended to better accommodate the business and achieve zoning compliance to the satisfaction of the Town of Montville. Proposed improvements include: modifications to existing parking and circulation drives including creating 2 defined entrances separated by a landscaped island; modifications to the existing paved parking lot to achieve zoning and ADA compliance; restoration of existing compacted gravel areas for continued use as equipment parking and outdoor storage; construction of a concrete dumpster pad; and construction of a 5' x 5' concrete pad adjacent to the access door on the easterly side of the building. The existing subsurface sewage disposal system (SSDS) as depicted on this plan is based on the installer's as-built obtained from Uncas Health District. There are no regulated inland wetlands on the subject property as determined by Demian A. Sorrentino, Certified Soil Scientist. According to the United States Department of Agriculture (USDA), Natural Resources Conservation Service (NRCS) Web Soil Survey for the State of Connecticut, the soil types present on the subject property are: Map Unit 84B - Paxton & Montauk fine sandy loams, 3-8% slopes Map Unit 45C - Woodbridge fine sandy loam, 8-15% slopes. The site development has been designed so that runoff from the improved site will follow the existing drainage patterns. The only effectively impervious areas that may contribute runoff to the municipal separate storm sewer system are the paved apron at the parking area entrance and the traffic bound gravel surface immediately behind the curb at the secondary seasonal site entrance. All other stormwater runoff from this property sheet flows to the remaining 0.5± acres of vegetated area to the rear of the existing building and outdoor storage areas. Stormwater from the existing paved parking area will continue to flow northwesterly to the grassed area on the westerly side of the building. This proposal results in no increase in effective impervious coverage of the property. Effective impervious areas of the property decrease by 131 square feet from 16,021 sf (38.9%) to 15,890 sf (38.6%). Therefore, stormwater runoff generated by this property will not increase as a result of this proposal. Erosion control measures to be implemented during construction include a continuous sediment fence barriers downgradient of the proposed construction areas. Erosion control measures will be installed prior to major site disturbance and will be maintained throughout the project. After construction is complete, all disturbed areas shall be loamed (4” minimum) and seeded with grass for permanent stabilization. Erosion control measures will be removed only after all disturbed areas have been permanently stabilized.
