RE: 
Requested Plan Changes – Chipotle 
 
122 Boston Post Road – Waterford, CT 
 
File #: 340-27.1 
 
 
Dear Mr. Wujtewicz: 
 
My understanding is that the Town of Waterford’s Design Review Board (DRB) is scheduled to meet on 
Tuesday, October 10th to consider a couple of changes we requested on the recently approved Chipotle 
development at 122 Boston Post Road.  These changes were driven by the need to reduce the overall cost of 
this project which has come in significantly over-budget.  To aid the DRB in their deliberation, I have provided 
the following narrative to detail the two requested changes: 
 
1. Decorative Aluminum Rods on Chipotle Building Exterior:   The original elevations included a 
collection of red aluminum rods along the pick-up window side of the building (see Exhibit 1).  
Unfortunately, the cost for this new form of Chipotle decorative treatment is over $20,000.  Instead, we 
would like to substitute two (2) additional faux windows on the exterior and continue the brick treatment 
at the base of the building (see Exhibit 2).   
 
2. Revised Dumpster Enclosure Materials: The original plans call for a CMU block wall dumpster 
enclosure with a heavy-duty gate (See Exhibit 3).  Again, the cost for this enclosure came in 
excessively high and we consulted with our tenant, Chipotle, on an alternative. They proposed a Trex 
Composite Fence enclosure (See Exhibit 4) that is less expensive but equally sturdy.  We would retain 
the existing heavy-duty gate enclosure shown on the original plans but simply replace the CMU with the 
composite Trex material. 
 
Mark, thanks again for preparing this application for the DRB and I look forward to speaking with the DRB next 
Tuesday.  Should you have any questions, however, please feel free to contact me directly. 
 
Sincerely,
