Meetings Mary Malan, Sutton Resident, Lots 02-487-182 and 02-486-188 The two lots front Blaisdell Lake, are non-conforming lots (both smaller than regulations allow), and the property line between them goes through a dug well. As an artesian well has since been put in Lot 02-487-182, the dug well can now be allocated fully to Lot 02-486-188. Mary Malan would like to have the lot line moved so she can sell Lot 02-486-188 along with the dug well. She came to the Planning Board asking for a conceptual review. The main points of the discussion that followed are: •Relevant town ordinances and regulations to review are (1) Zoning Ordinance Article 7 Section D, which addresses non-conforming lots; (2) Zoning Ordinance Article 15, which provides definitions related to non-conforming lots; and (3) Subdivision Regulations Section 4.F: Conveyances of Land between Abutting Owners. •Chairman Wells provided the Board members and Mary Malan with a handout he had prepared. •Chairman Wells Chairman Wells had talked with the Town Attorney. He shared a summary of their discussion and provided Mary Malan with a copy of the email he sent the Town Attorney along with the Town Attorney’s email reply. •Mary Malan can bring a request for a lot line adjustment to the Planning Board, and, if not successful, she can apply to the Zoning Board for a Conditional Use Permit. •Chairman Wells highly recommend that, before Mary Malan goes further, she review the relevant town ordinances and regulations listed above and discuss her request with a Land Use attorney.
