ZBA approves Nicholas Mosher lot split at 5429 Ridge Road with 70‑foot width

The Zoning Board approved Nicholas Mosher’s request to split 5429 Ridge Road (Tax Map No. 80.00‑1‑5) so one lot would have a 70‑foot width, short of the AR district minimum lot width of 200 feet. Mosher said he and his fiancée face two mortgages and that he planned to sell the house — his friend Kyle indicated interest in buying — while retaining most of the land for hunting. The board discussed driveway placement and dog‑fence impacts, and members agreed a 70‑foot width would be acceptable in this context.
