Town of Reading – Notice of Hearing for Variance #CU012024

Town of Reading, VT

Notice of a Hearing for Variance #CU012024

The Hall Art Foundation has submitted an application for a Conditional Use Permit for the property located at 551-554 Vt. Route 106 (Parcel 3038) in the Town of Reading VT. The proposed project is described as follows:

The proposed project involves the regrading of existing areas and materials parallel to and offset from the North Branch of the Black River. The regrading work is bisected by Route 106 and is located on both Hall Art Foundation properties on each side of Route 106. This work is proposed to reduce the potential of future flooding events impacting the museum buildings south of the river and on both sides of Route 106. The regrading is intended to create a berm that fits with the landscape but offers a final top elevation higher than existing grade at any given location along its length. The landform is intended to blend into the surrounding landscape. Portions of the work will be planted with native vegetation consistent with other planting in the area. In addition to the regrading, a free standing stone wall is proposed as protection along a portion of western property boundary of the eastern museum building, parallel with Route 106, outside of the Vermont Trans highway right-of-way. This is in keeping with the existing stone walls along the front of the western museum buildings.

The Town of Reading Zoning Board of Adjustment will hold a public hearing on this application on May 15, 2024 at 7PM with a site visit prior on the same day at 4PM. The hearing will be convened in person at Town Hall or electronically via ZOOM.
