Application 4C0348-6A from University of Vermont & State Agricultural College 31 Spear Street, Burlington, VT 05405 was received on August 4, 2022 and deemed complete on June 20, 2023. The project specifically authorizes the construction of a new multi-purpose team support building at the northeast corner of Virtue Field at the University of Vermont (UVM). The project will include utility connections and improvements to walkways adjacent to the building. The 4,640 square foot support building includes four team rooms, a training room, an official's room, a multi-stall women's restroom, a multi-stall men's restroom, a gender-inclusive single-occupancy restroom/family room, three mechanical rooms, a ticket booth, and a concession area. A new concrete walkway will also be constructed around the building.
The support building was originally permitted in 2015 through Land Use Permit (LUP) 4C0348-6 as part of the improvements to the existing playing field. While the components of the LUP 4C0348-6 were mostly built, the support building was never constructed. The construction deadline in LUP 4C0348-6 expired on October 31, 2018 and was not extended prior to the construction expiration date. UVM is reapplying for authorization to complete the support building. The project is located at 147 Spear Street in Burlington, Vermont.
