MEMORANDUM

TO: Burlington Public Works Commission

FROM: Caleb Manna, Associate Public Works Engineer, Department of Public Works

DATE: May 20, 2025

CC: Chapin Spencer, Director of Public Works.
 Laura Wheelock, P.E.; . Assistant Director of Public Works/City Engineer

RE: Ledgewood Circle Street Acceptance


Request

To accept, through City Council Resolution, the formal conveyance of a portion of the street known
as Ledgewood Circle, from the current ownership group, Ledgewood 1 Condominium Board, to
the City.

A segement of Ledgewood Circle, (also know as the Austin Drive entryway) located between
Austin Drive and Oakbeach Drive in the south end of the City of Burlington, serves as crucial
connector street linking acces to Austin Drive , Oakbeach Drive, Southwind Drive, and Flynn
Avenue. The current owner of the street, Ledgwood 1 Condominium Board, is requesting the
lands be conveyed to the City for public right-of-way acceptance.

History of Ledgewood Circle - 1960’s

On July 19, 1967, an agreement was made between the then owner, Champlain Associates, and
the City, conveying ownership of the entire parcel lot, then know as Ledgwood Apartments, to the
City. The street was never accepted via resolution by City Council. No documentation of an
existing resolution pertaining to this location has been found. The original agreement
demonstrates there was always intent to deed this section of road to city.

1981

In 1981, the then owner, Champlain Associates, deeded the 8.9 acre parcel (including the Austin
Dr. entryway currenty proposed for acceptance) know as Ledgewood Apartments, to Ledgewood
Associates.

At this time Ledgewood Associates (LA), in turn created the Ledgewood Home Owners
Association (LHOA), by Declaration of Covenant, deeding to LHOA the exisiting pool and
community building. It is important to note the role of a home owners association, (different from




 Page 23 of 75
RE: Ledgewood Circle Street Acceptance May 20, 2025

a condo assioation) created for the function of maintaining shared facilities (pool and building)
between four condo associations (Legdewood South, Ledgewood East, Southwind Condo, and
Ledgewood 1) making up the 8.9 acre parcel lot know as Ledgwood Apartments during this time.

 Also in 1981, LA created Ledgewood 1 Condominium Association (Ledgewood 1), and conveyed
to them, the same 8.9 acre parcel including the entryway from Austin Drive, into condo ownership,
clearly assigning ownership of the entryway to Legdewood 1. All 76 condo units were sold from
LA to Ledgewood 1 at this time. Under the common elements of the parcel transfer to a condo
association, this meant each owner owned a unit, and a percentance share of the parcel lot, which
included the Austin Dr. entryway.

In July of 1981, the City and LA, executed an amendement to the 1967 agreement between City
and Champlain Associates, amending the agreement to allow for the sale of individual units and
townhouses. This amended agreement defines the roadway and infrastructure as privately owned
and maintained by LA. Section 3 of this amendement contains language that allowing for the
future acceptance of the Austin Drive entryway to the City, so long as the roadway was
constructed to city specifications.

1982-1993

In June of 1982, we begin to see some confusion over ownership of the parcel. LA executed an
amendent to LHOA and Ledgewood 1 Declaration of Covenant, specifying that the roadway
between Austin Dr. and Flynn Ave., would be dedicated to the City. Language from section 2 of
this amendent, clearly states “ the declarant (LA) and (LHOA,) shall dedicate to the City of
Burlington a roadway connecting Austin Drive and Flynn Ave.” Oakbeach Drive as we know it
today, had not been constructed as of 1982, but was planned for future development, and was
completed in 1988 as public roadway.

The issue being, that LA had previously deeded the parcel lot to Ledgewood 1 in the 1981
amendment, and that Ledgewood 1, as the owner, was not included in the above mentioned 1982
amendement to the Declaration of Covenant.

Between 1982 and 1993, LHOA assumed responsibility for maintaining the Austin Drive entry way
used by the four condo associations, making up LHOA.

In 1993, LA executed a warranty deed conveying the Austin Drive entryway, southern extension
of Oakbeach, and the tennis courts to LHOA. Had the title search under the warranty deed been
properly executed, it was have become known that LA, did have the rights to convey this property.

2018-Present

This discrepancy in ownership came to light in 2018, when LHOA begain the process to convey
the Austin Drivey entryway to the City. LHOA in fact, has no rights to convey said property to the
City, as the parcel was conveyed to Ledgewood 1 in 1981. LHOA has since recognized the error
and disclaimed ownership.

For a full history and associated documentation of ownership transfers, see EX-A.

Right-of-Way Acceptance

The Department of Public Works, Technical Services Division, was tasked with compiling the
missing documentation for the acceptance of the Austin Drive entryway in January of 2023. In
collaboration with the current President of Ledgewood 1 Condo Assoc. Mr. Andrew Prendimano,
which included securing a policy of title insurance, completing a boundary survey, establishing
monumentation for the parcel, and a providing a warrenty deed dedicating said lands to the city.

DPW, following the guidance of the Right-of-Way Acceptance Procedure for Post Development,
received sign offs from all city departments responsible for maintaining infrastructure, certifying
any asset proposed for acceptance within the street segement is of adequate condition, and will
not become a liability to the city as ownership is transferred.

These City Departments include:

  DPW Streets Maintenance
  DPW Water Resources
  DPW Technical Services
  DPW Traffic Division
  Department of Parks, Waterfront and Recreation
  Burlington Electric Department
  Burlington Fire Department

Historically, the city has provided a routine level of servive in maintaining the street segement.
Typical maintanence over the years includes pothole filling, snow plowing, and catch basin
repairs.

Future Plans for Ledgewood Circle

Should the street be accepted, it is anticipated a bike lane and new sidewalk will be installed on
the north side of the divided entryway at some point in the future. With the right-of-way
acceptance, DPW will be authorized to establish no parking regulations in ordinance, and bring
roadway signage up to current MUTCD standards. The existing street lighting will be added to
BED’s capital improvement plan, and brough up to current IES lighting standards applicable to
Burlington city streets.

Recommendation

The Department of Public Works is supportive of formally accepting the section of roadway known
as Ledgewood Circle, as shown in Ex-D, connecting Austin Drive to Oakbeach Drive in the City
of Burlington, VT.

Thank you for consideration of this request, please do not hesitate to contact me directly at
CManna@burlingtonvt.gov or 802-865-7562.

J. Schultz (Ledgewood Home Owners Association Board member) 8/28/20

  CHRONOLOGY OF EVENTS RELATED TO OWNERSHIP OF THE AUSTIN DRIVE ENTRYWAY
[For anyone not familiar with the area, the site map on the last page of the attached documents may be
helpful in following this chronology.]
1. On 1/12/81, Champlain Associates, then-owner of the Ledgewood Apartments at 80 Austin Drive, executed a
warranty deed conveying an 8.9 acre parcel which included those apartments to developer Gerry Milot/
Ledgewood Associates. That deed included the Austin Drive entryway. {Attachment 3}

2. On 1/15/81, Ledgewood Associates executed a Declaration of Covenant creating the Ledgewood Home
Owners Association. [Vol. 271/Pg.512 of the City Land Records/not attached.] (The LHOA is NOT a condo
association; it is a home owners association that exists for the purpose of managing certain facilities -- principally
a pool and tennis courts-- shared by the owners of units in Ledgewood I and three other adjacent condo
associations. The LHOA has no legal relationship with those four condo associations as entities, only with the unit
owners.) Ledgewood Associates conveyed to the LHOA, by deed, the pool and a small "community building" that
were located on the Ledgewood Apartments parcel; the entryway was not part of the property conveyed to the
LHOA by Ledgewood Associates at this time. {Attachment 6}

3. On 1/15/81, the developer, Ledgewood Associates, also executed a Declaration of Condominium creating the
Ledgewood I Condominium and conveying the exact same 8.9 acre parcel acquired from Champlain Associates
into condo ownership, again, clearly including the Austin Drive entryway, in both the detailed description of
property and the site map that were part of that Declaration. Under the provisions of its Declaration. the entryway
was part of the Common Elements of the Ledgewood I Condominium. {Attachment 1, 1a, 1b}

4. Ledgewood Associates subsequently sold all 76 of the units in the Ledgewood I Condominium, meaning that,
like all other common elements, each unit's percentage share of the entryway was deeded to each unit. It is
important to recognize that the Common Elements, or jointly owned property, of any condo association are not
conveyed by deed to the Association per se, but rather, are conveyed into condo ownership via a Declaration of
Condominium, and then subsequently deeded incrementally to individual owners as a percentage share of jointly
held property, along with full ownership of the unit itself. In other words, a condo association, as a legal entity,
does not hold a "deed" to its common elements. By contrast, the Ledgewood Home Owners Association, which is
not a condo association, does own property as a corporate entity and must acquire that property by deed.

5. On 7/14/81, the City of Burlington and Ledgewood Associates (“owner”) executed an amendment to a 7/67
agreement between the City and Champlain Associates pertaining to the Ledgewood Apartments. This 7/81
agreement served to resolve a dispute over subdivision rules. One provision of that agreement states, “It is
currently contemplated by the Owner and the City that, in connection with further development of the Ledgewood
property, so called, the Owner will dedicate to the City a roadway, connecting Austin Drive and Flynn Avenue,
said roadway to be constructed to City specifications…” {Attachment 4}

6. On 6/21/82, Ledgewood Associates executed a single/identical amendment to both the LHOA Declaration of
Covenant AND the Ledgewood I Declaration of Condominium, the provisions of which included the following:
“[Ledgewood Associates] and the [Ledgewood] Home Owners Association … shall dedicate to the City…a
roadway connecting Austin Drive and Flynn Avenue, subject to the provisions of [the above 7/81 Agreement].” At
that time, Ledgewood Associates owned the land on which the entire Oakbeach Drive portion of this roadway was
eventually built, but it did not own the already-completed Austin Drive entryway portion of the roadway, having
previously conveyed it to Ledgewood I in January 1981. And the Ledgewood Home Owners Association did not
own ANY of the existing or anticipated roadway property. {Attachment 5}

By this time, more than half of the Ledgewood I units had been sold, so this Amendment to both the LHOA and
Ledgewood I Declarations required approval of 75% of all LHOA and Ledgewood I owners, which was obtained.
Because Ledgewood I owners were the only members of the LHOA at that time, they concurrently approved the
amendment to both Declarations. One possible interpretation of this Amendment could be that Ledgewood I
owners approved the conveyance of the Austin Drive entryway to the City in June 1982. (However, they could not
have approved the conveyance of the Oakbeach Drive Extension to the City, since neither Ledgewood I nor
LHOA owned the Oakbeach Drive extension.)

7. Then, (later) in 1982, 1984 and 1986 respectively, the separate Ledgewood South, Ledgewood East and
Southwind Condo Associations were created, making the owners of the 210 units in all four condo associations
members of the Ledgewood Home Owners Association by virtue of a covenant in their deeds.



 Page 27 of 75
8. At some point between 1982 and 1993, the Ledgewood Home Owners Association apparently assumed
responsibility for maintenance of the entryway, perhaps because it was used by owners in all four condo
associations. (Of course, ever since Oakbeach Drive was completed around 1988, it has been used by the
general public as a thoroughfare between Austin Drive and Flynn Avenue.) It's unclear if the LHOA Board at that
time believed that the LHOA owned the entryway, or if there was just an informal arrangement by which the LHOA
paid for maintenance.

9. For many years, much of the regular maintenance of the actual roadway of the entryway has been done by the
City, including plowing, fixing potholes, installing catch basins, etc. The LHOA's main expenses have been for
summer grounds maintenance around the road, as well as paying for the leased street lights and associated City
stormwater fees. I believe the LHOA paid to pave the entryway at least once, in the mid-90’s, the need for which
probably was connected to the deed executed in 1993 (#10, next.)

10. In January 1993, Ledgewood Associates executed a warranty deed purportedly conveying the Austin Drive
entryway, the southern extension of Oakbeach Drive (the northern section of Oakbeach had already been
accepted as a City street) and the Ledgewood tennis courts to the Ledgewood Home Owners Association. At the
time, Ledgewood Associates owned the Oakbeach Drive extension and the tennis courts, but did not own the
entryway. Either a proper title search was not conducted by any of the parties prior to execution of the deed, or
the information was ignored. (The reason that Ledgewood Associates initiated this deed at this time is murky, but
presumably was to avoid as much financial liability as possible. It is a complete mystery as to why the LHOA
would have agreed to accept owership of any roadway, since this was not in the best interest of the 210 LHOA
owners, and the intent all along was for these to become City streets.) {Attachment 2}

11. Due to the existence of this deed, LHOA and LWI Boards since that time appear to have assumed that the
LHOA, in fact, owned the entryway.

12. The LHOA has always wanted to convey the entryway to the City; it was pursued a few times but somehow
never happened.

13. In 2018, the LHOA Board decided to again pursue conveying the entryway to the City, and while researching
the documents related to entryway ownership, discovered that, in fact, the entryway was part of the property
conveyed to Ledgewood I in 1981. This meant that the 1993 deed held by the LHOA was invalid with respect to
the entryway, because Ledgewood Associates had no legal right to convey it. In response, the Ledgewood Home
Owners Association Board formally notified the Ledgewood I Condo Association Board that the LHOA disclaimed
ownership of the entryway, because Ledgewood Associates clearly did not own it at the time the 1993 deed was
executed. This disclaimer is filed in the City Land Records. {Attachment 7}

TO: Ledgewood I Condo Association Board:
 Werner Ostmann (President), Emily Ryan, Joe Johnson

FROM: Ledgewood Home Owners (“Master”) Association Board:
 Betsy Liley (President), Heather Ballou, Ann Rugg, Judy Schultz, Craig Weatherly

RE: DISCLAIMING OWNERSHIP OF AUSTIN DRIVE ENTRYWAY

We are writing to notify you that the Ledgewood Home Owners Association Board has voted that effective
immediately, the Ledgewood Home Owners Association disclaims any right, title or interest in or to the so-called
“Austin Drive entryway”, having determined that the deed by which that parcel was conveyed to the LHOA is
invalid, and that the Ledgewood I Condo Association is the owner of the property.

The “Austin Drive entryway” is a portion of the property purportedly conveyed by the developer, Ledgewood
Associates, to the Ledgewood Home Owners Association by warranty deed on January 27, 1993 [City Land
Records V473/P126]. It consists of a roughly 120’ by 285’ rectangular parcel that encompasses the two paved
entry/exit lanes connected to Austin Drive, the median between those lanes, a roughly 30’ wide strip of land
along the outer side of each lane, and the paved intersection with the southern extension of Oakbeach Drive.

The Ledgewood Home Owners Association will no longer arrange or pay for any property maintenance, services
or fees related to the above-described parcel of land, including the paved roadway, grounds, leased street
lights, underground utilities, and City stormwater management fees.

Last year, while pursuing the possible conveyance of the Austin Drive entryway to the City of Burlington, we
determined that the 1993 warranty deed referenced above did not effect a conveyance of the Austin Drive
entryway because:

● It was part of the parcel of land that Ledgewood Associates conveyed into LWI Condo Association
ownership on January 15, 1981 [City Land Records V271/P481]. Therefore, Ledgewood Associates did not own
the entryway when it purported to convey it to the LHOA in 1993. LWI is and always has been the owner, since
January 1981.

● §5.06 of the LHOA Declaration requires approval by 2/3 of owners in order to annex additional Common
Area to the Property, which was never done when it was purportedly deeded to the LHOA.

● The LWI Declaration and/or pertinent state statutes presumably would have required some type of LWI
owner approval, along with a vote of the LWI Board and a deed from LWI to the LHOA, in order to convey a LWI
Common Element to the LHOA. This was not done.

The attached property site map shows the approximate location and boundaries of the Austin Drive entrance
and exit. The exact property lines may be determined from the parcel description in the 1993 warranty deed
[City Land Records V473/P126] combined with the parcel description in Exhibit D of the Declaration of
Ledgewood I Condominium [V271/P505].

This action will be recorded in the City of Burlington Land Records. [Recorded in Book 1437/Pg. 193]

Note: although often referred to as the "Master Association" in the past,
the LHOA is NOT a master association. The LHOA and the four condo
assocations are all separate, independent corporate entities. The term "property"
in the LHOA Declaration refers to the condo properties that are subject to the
jurisdiction of the LHOA, that is, whose owners are members of the LHOA; it does not refer
to property owned by the LHOA. LHOA "Common Area", that is property actually owned
(or presumed to be owned) by the LHOA, is highlighted in purple. Page 53 of 75

identified in Schedule A, and will include the following Exceptions unless cleared to the satisfaction of the Company:

1. Rights or claims of persons in possession, other than the insured, which are not shown by the Public Records.

To: DPW Commissioners
Fr: Chapin Spencer, Director (cspencer@burlingtonvt.gov)
Re: DPW Director’s Report
Date: May 21, 2025


MAIN STREET UPDATES & ADDITIONAL MITIGATION:
Based on business feedback and desire for additional
mitigation back in March, we undertook further
activities:
  A mid-week parking promotion requested by
 businesses. 2 hour free parking for four
 Wednesdays and Thursdays at all downtown
 street meters.
  A partnership with Front Porch Forum in
 Burlington to provide impacted Main St
 businesses free posts – and a paid county-wide
 promotional campaign.

These additional measures were funded by Water
Resources. We are also asking the contractor for a
proposal in the next week for what it would cost to
maintain one-way westbound traffic through the
remainder of the project. We are expecting the Council to
have a resolution coming to the May 19 Council meeting
focused on supporting the downtown community. We
are fully engaged in these conversations. More info:
Peter Procaccio, pprocaccio@burlingtonvt.gov and
https://greatstreetsbtv.com/.

FY’26 BUDGET AND THE FUTURE OF MUNICIPAL RECYCLING COLLECTION
Thank you for the opportunity to discuss the future of the municipal recycling collection at the April
Commission meeting. We are preparing to bring an update to the City Council at the May 19 meeting
that brings forward the Transportation, Energy & Utilities Committee’s 3-1 approved motion from
their April meeting to:
  Support the development of a Memorandum of Agreement regarding a DPW Recycling and
 Street Maintenance staff recruitment and retention program to be developed by DPW
 management and AFSCME representatives brought forward to the Council for approval at a
 May 2025 meeting, and
  Support putting out a request for price quotes (RFPQ) to area haulers in May 2025 for a 3-5
 year contracted operation of the City’s Recycling program, and
  Support DPW management developing, in parallel, a sustainable municipally-run operational
 model and full cost estimate for a Recycling program delivered by DPW staff, and
  Request the Transportation, Energy & Utilities Committee work with City staff to develop a
 plan, timeline and budget to evaluate a potential transition to a fully consolidated solid waste
 collection system and provide the proposed plan back to the City Council by November 2025

THE LONG VIEW:
DPW is spending significant time working to mitigate the impacts of our generational upgrades to the
City’s aged infrastructure. We know our work has impacts and we very much appreciate the
community’s continued support of our great local businesses who are within and adjacent to our
construction areas. Additionally, we want to remind the public that Burlington is on the edge of
seeing major transformative work come to fruition. As the Mayor says “Burlington’s best days are
ahead.” Within just the next year, so many projects will be completed or reaching exciting
milestones:
  Burlington Square, Vermont’s newest tallest building, will open
  The new Burlington High School will open
  The Champlain Parkway will be open with a new interstate connection
  The Main Street project will be completed
  The Post Apartments project on South Winooski will be open
  Work will begin on reconnecting Pine St and St Paul St after Urban Renewal ripped them up

Together, we are laying the solid foundation for Burlington’s future.

See you all next Wednesday! Reach out anytime on these or other issues
(cspencer@burlingtonvt.gov).
