Developers of a proposed Appletree Point senior housing and assisted living facility offered a revised plan Tuesday to the Burlington Development Review Board. The new plan is meant as a means to discuss ways to alleviate concerns among neighbors of the project, said Bill Niquette of Infill Development Services, which is developing the project. The alternative plan led opponents to complain they are facing a frustrating, moving target. Infill originally proposed a 256-unit project on 16 acres in the Appletree Point neighborhood. Residents of nearby streets said the project would dwarf homes surrounding the site and worsen traffic in the area. new Click here to read more.

A developer wants to build 148 two-bedroom apartments on 40 acres of woodland and an overgrown meadow on Appletree Point in Burlington's New North End. Some of the units would be set aside for low-income families. Such housing is much needed in Burlington's tight housing market, said Brian Pine, housing director for the city's Community and Economic Development Office. Residents of Sunset Cliff Road and other nearby neighborhoods are opposing Keystone Development Corp.'s plan. They appealed a city permit, saying Appletree Terrace defies city regulations and would harm a precious wetland. Their opposition to Appletree Terrace was heard in "Environmental Court" in June. A decision is pending. I completely understand that Burlington has a housing shortage, but I don't think that building in places that haven't been developed is the ideal," said Nancy Kaplan, whose Muirfield Road home backs onto the currently vacant woodlands. "I had a fox running through my back yard. Once you lose that, it's gone forever."

A New housing proposal is a hot subject in South Burlington. The prospect of more traffic at an already busy intersection drew a standing-room-only crowd Tuesday to a meeting of the Development Review Board in South Burlington. At issue was a proposed development of seven four-story buildings with 160 rental units behind Staples on Williston Road. The 26-acre parcel, at 270 Quarry Hill Road, is owned by Ralph Deslauriers Jr. and would be developed by John Larkin. Dozens of concerned residents of East Terrace and Spear Street turned out for a hearing on the proposal, which was in a preliminary, sketch-plan phase. Engineer Lance Llewellyn, who presented the proposal, said parking for residents of the housing would be provided beneath the buildings. He also said some of the land would be reserved for unspecified future commercial use. ... Residents expressed their concerns about increased traffic from a proposed road through the development that would connect with East Terrace.

A new study concludes that more working people are finding it harder to pay the rent. This in spite of new affordable housing construction and low-income rent assistance. ... The report, entitled Out of Reach, calculates Vermont's "housing wage" -- the hourly pay a single person needs to afford a two-bedroom apartment at fair market rent. In the Burlington area the housing wage is .35. In rural areas it's significantly lower, at .63. The statewide average housing wage is .78. The report is issued nationally and ranks all of the states. Among rural areas, Vermont ranks as the eighth least affordable state. ... But to make matters worse, it's not clear if much existing housing would be allowed if it were being built today. Vermont's stormwater runoff controversy has stalled the permitting system and threatens to put a halt to any significant construction. Carpenter spoke for many in the housing business who worry about the implications. Click here to read more.

About 25 vacant buildings dotted Burlington four years ago; that number has dropped to about 10. The change is due in part to a 1999 law that created a program to keep track of unoccupied buildings. The ordinance requires property owners to make vacant buildings safe and apply for development permits or pay per quarter to the city, said Kathleen Butler, policy analyst at the Burlington code enforcement office. Vacant building fees are used to cover administrative costs of the program. ... A count of the number of buildings that have been removed from the vacant list since 1999 is difficult to establish because some land records are outdated, Butler said. Unoccupied buildings are viewed as undesirable because they detract from the value of neighboring properties, Butler said. Eliminating vacant buildings also addresses the housing shortage in the city. The housing shortage has eased during the last year, said Brian Pine at the city's Community and Economic Development Office.

Affordable Housing On Burlington's Waterfront is Raising Controversy. The Burlington city council is expected to approve a plan to build affordable housing on the waterfront. But is the waterfront the right place? The Depot Street Triangle has been controversial from the beginning. In spite of reservations by many who say the waterfront is not the place to lock in lower property values, the city council is expected to approve a long-term lease of the nearly two-acre parcel to the Burlington Community Land Trust, to build as many as forty units of affordable housing. "When the land was acquired, it was acquired for the purpose of creating housing at that location," argues Brian Pine of the Community and Economic Development Office, CEDO. "The real question becomes, should we have affordable housing on the waterfront? And this city has decided that the only way to get a mixed-income, mixed-use waterfront that's vibrant year-round is to make the site available for affordable housing."

Affordable housing remains limited. Rita Markley figured that the economic downturn would help free up some apartments and houses and begin to ease the housing crisis that has gripped northwest Vermont and the Upper Connecticut River Valley. Recessions and the job losses that accompany them typically cause people to seek new jobs that require them to relocate, opening at least some housing stock and helping to drive down rents. That hasn't happened, and so Markley's group, the Committee on Temporary Shelter, followed through on plans to buy a building to house 10 homeless families. Even with the additional space in the former YWCA in downtown Burlington, there are countless people who have spent the winter -- and quite possibly will do the same throughout the summer -- making do with facilities that wouldn't pass a housing inspection.

Aline Demers figured selling a three-bedroom townhouse in South Burlington's Stonehedge Condominiums would be simple in Chittenden County's sizzling real estate market. Finding a buyer was the easy part, Demers said. Closing the deal was not. Stonehedge's state stormwater permit had expired, meaning the buyers could not obtain a clear title to the townhouse. Demers is not the only homeowner who has encountered this problem. About 1,000 stormwater permits for large residential and commercial projects in Vermont have expired. Renewal has been delayed by lawsuits, politics and the low priority permit renewal was given in the 1990s. Real estate brokers, bankers and title insurance underwriters say the expired stormwater permits add to the hassle of selling a home for a growing number of sellers.

As resounding as the housing crunch in Chittenden County is, it's understandable why the grand opening of 50 apartment units is cause for a full-blown celebration. Housing, banking, and real-estate development officials turned shovels up at an open house for Maple Tree apartments in Williston. "Why housing is so important at Taft's Corner is it fulfills certain goals that we've had in our town plan," said Mary Weston, chair of the Williston selectboard. "It's really exciting to see them come into place." Doddi Bourne is still excited about coming into her place. She moved here in July after living in a cramped apartment in the north end of Burlington, with her children Davilyn and Jayden.

Burlington Affordable Housing Taskforce will assess Burlington’s current housing conditions, both market rate housing and publicly-assisted housing units. This will also include a review of the regulatory and administrative impediments to creating more affordable housing. Although the Task Force is charged with focusing their attention on improvements to Burlington’s policies and programs as they impact affordable housing, there should be time devoted to changes needed at the State and regional level to encourage more affordable housing development and preservation throughout the region. The work of this task force will complement and be coordinated with the efforts of the Chittenden County Housing, which is being convened by the Chittenden County Regional Planning Commission.

Burlington Codes office ordered a residence at 354 North Winooski Ave. boarded shut after Code Enforcement Officer Ray O'Connor issued an emergency public health order declaring the house uninhabitable. O'Connor said city police and fire departments answered a fire call shortly after 4 p.m. Wednesday and discovered what he called "severely unsanitary conditions that made the building not suitable for occupancy." He said the house is owned by Ellen Norton, a full-time worker for the city's Community Justice Center and that the house was occupied by three people. Neighbors said Norton lived in the house with her two children. They said the elder son, whom they estimated to be about 20 years old, is blind and unable to speak.

Burlington is Endorsing A Major Housing Development. For several months, the statewide Roman Catholic Diocese of Burlington has considered selling its headquarters for development as a major housing project. The diocesan property is a prime piece of real estate, 32 acres overlooking Lake Champlain off North Avenue. Specific plans for the property are still in the works, but the concept now has the city's endorsement. This is one of the largest undeveloped parcels of land in the city, and one of the most valuable, although untaxed as church property. ... The property could hold as many as 700 housing units under current zoning, although officials say the plan more likely will call for three or four hundred. The former orphanage, the original buildings dating from 1882, has stood empty for so long (since the early 1970s) that the church was under pressure to do something with it. Although expensive to renovate, the old orphanage could be made into affordable apartments for the elderly -- a concept strongly endorsed by the church.

Burlington is one of a growing number of metropolitan areas nationwide, where the median-earning household can't afford the median-priced house. The vacancy rate for rentals hovers around 1 percent. It's even harder to buy a house. Demand has driven up prices, and wages haven't kept pace. Vicky Philby's experience is typical: ...

Burlington wants to end homelessness in the city in 10 years. A draft city plan released Thursday urges building more affordable housing, a "livable wage," a housing "safety net" for those unable to work and social help for people with substance abuse or mental health problems. The plan, "Moving Toward Home," was compiled by the city's Community and Economic Development Office. State and federal help is necessary for the plan to work, the study acknowledges. John O'Brien, the Boston-based regional coordinator of the U.S. Interagency Council on Homelessness, had high praise for the Burlington plan, the first such mayor-endorsed strategy, he said, from any city in New England and the first from a "small city" in the country. Mayor Peter Clavelle, calling homelessness "a national disgrace," said the number of homeless, both individuals and families, is increasing locally as well as nationally.

Burlington's Development Review Board listened to both sides this week, but deferred its decision in an easement dispute involving the new Cohousing East Village project on East Avenue. Board Vice Chairman Eric Miller, after the board listened to passionate testimony from the two sides Tuesday, urged them to try to reach an agreement in the coming days. Neighbors on Bilodeau Parkway, just north of the project, claim the cohousing group reneged on an offer to sell each of them a strip of land as a buffer between the project and the houses on the parkway. Cohousing argued in papers filed Nov. 19 with the city that it cannot be made to sell the land. Cohousing spokesman Don Schramm said both groups agree a buffer between the project and the neighbors is desirable but "have a legitimate disagreement over the value of the land."

Cheap financing and the housing shortage are likely to keep Chittenden County's residential real estate market in high gear despite mounting job losses at the state's largest private employer. IBM on Monday cut 500 jobs at its Essex Junction plant, bringing the total number of jobs lost at the computer chip-making plant to 2,300 since November 2001. The plant work force, now at 6,200, is at its lowest point since 1994. Despite the massive loss of high-wage jobs with a median salary estimated to be double the Chittenden County average of ,000 real estate professionals say business remains strong. My personal business is up 18 percent from last year and I had my best year ever last year,'' said Brian French, owner of the real estate agency Century 21 Advantage in South Burlington.
