The site is an existing shopping plaza containing seven(7)different operational retail store fronts.
The parcel contains approximately 9.57±acres and is bound by existing commercial uses to the north,the
Cape Cod Rail Trail to the south,a wooded area to the east,and Station Avenue to the west.
The proposed development includes the construction of a new 1-6,576 square foot Town Fair Tire
retail storefront along with associated parking,landscaping,and utilities to support its customer base in
the region.The proposed parking areas have been designed to match the intent of the existing layout in
order to maintain existing traffic flows.
The site is designed to implement several Low Impact Development Strategies.For example,the
site as designed proposes to capture and infiltrate the entire runoff from the roof using a subsurface
stormwater management system. In addition, approximately ±140 sf of impervious pavement will be

converted to landscape area as part of this project. As part of these landscaped areas, two red maple
trees have been proposed in these areas to further intercept rainfall and reduce the volume currently
flowing to the existing drainage infrastructure on site.
As outlined in the Drainage Report, the development of the site and the proposed stormwater
management system have been designed so that post-development peak rates of runoff are below pre-
development conditions for the 2-, 10-, 25-, 50-, and 100-year storm events. With the implementation of
the associated landscaping areas and the proposed underground stormwater management system, the
post-development conditions reduce the amount of flow that the existing on site stormwater infrastructure
receives when compared to the existing conditions. Said landscaping areas will increase water quality,
reduce peak rates, and boost the overall groundwater recharge volume from the site as a whole.
Additionally, the majority of the proposed development will consist of building rooftop and landscaping, all
positively impacting the water quality. Existing on-site drainage systems and patterns will be maintained
as part of this project.
Architecturally, the building has been designed to be consistent with the surrounding area and
has considered and incorporated The Yarmouth Architectural and Site Design Standards to the maximum
extent feasible. Proposed signage is limited to the wall mounted "Town Fair Tire" sign displayed on the
Southwest face of the building which is critical to market the proposed use and draw customers to the
facility. Please refer to The Site Development Plans and The Floor Plan and Elevations included in this
application for more detail.
Consistent with the Site Plan Review Application we have outlined the objectives of the Site Plan
Review Section 103.3.1 below:
1. Internal circulation and egress from the site are such that traffic safety is protected and
access via minor streets servicing single-family homes is minimized.
The proposed development fills a previously designated area for future development while
maintaining existing site circulation and egress. No changes to circulation or egress are
proposed.
2. Reasonable use is made of building location, grading and vegetation to reduce visibility of
parking areas from public ways.
The proposed development fills a previously designated area for future development while
preserving the site's existing grading and landscape character. It also adds landscaped areas
and appropriate vegetation to help maintain visibility within the parking areas.
3. Adequate access to each structure for fire and service equipment is provided. Installation of
Yarmouth Fire Department (YFD) Lockbox(es) shall be required to ensure building and site
access.
The proposed development fills a previously designated area for future development while
maintaining existing site circulation and egress. The applicant will work with the YFD for
specific lockbox locations as needed.
4. Utilities and drainage serving the site provide functional service to each structure and paved
area in the same manner as required for lots within a subdivision, and fire protection
provisions meeting Fire Department regulations are provided.
The proposed development will use existing on-site utility infrastructure to serve the building.
The applicant has received Board of Health variance approval to use the existing septic
system, completed a fire flow test to confirm capacity, and proposes a subsurface infiltration
system to capture and infiltrate runoff through the 100-year storm event. The project will also
reduce existing parking lot impervious area.

5. Drainage serving the site must comply with Section 304—Stormwater Management.
The applicant proposes a subsurface infiltration system to capture and infiltrate runoff from
the added building footprint through the 100-year storm event, along with reducing
impervious area within the existing parking lot. As a result, the development will meet or
exceed local and state stormwater management standards.
6. The proposed development will: a) minimize adverse environmental impacts on such features
as wetlands, flood plains, and aquifer recharge areas; b) minimize obstruction of scenic views
from publicly accessible locations; c) preserve unique natural or historical features to be
preserved on the site or within the Town of Yarmouth; d) maximize open space retention; e)
avoid major topographic changes; and f) minimize removal of existing trees within the
required buffer zones.
a. The development does not propose any impacts to wetlands, flood plains, or aquifer
recharge areas. Specifically the development proposes a subsurface infiltration system to
capture and infiltrate runoff from the added building footprint through the 100-year storm
event, along with reducing impervious area within the existing parking lot.
b. The proposed development fills a previously designated area for future development
while maintaining existing site characteristics and additional landscaping.
c. The development architectural has been design to match the existing shopping center
which generally aligns with the Town of Yarmouth unique natural features.
d. The proposed development fills a previously designated area for future development
while reducing the existing shopping centers impervious area with additional landscape
features.
e. The development topographic features are proposed to be maintained as currently
existing.
f. The proposed development does not propose the removal of any existing trees and
proposes additional trees above the required zoning bylaw. Additionally the applicant will
work with the land owner on establishing additional trees consistent with the Design
Review Committee recommendation.
7. In or abutting residential districts, effective use is made of topography, landscaping and
building placement to maintain, to the degree reasonable, the character of the neighborhood.
The proposed development fills a previously designated area for future development while
reducing the existing shopping centers impervious area with additional landscape features.
