Planning commission approves procedural items and two CSMs; minutes, agenda and lot changes carried
Summary
At its May 22 meeting the New London Planning Commission approved routine housekeeping items (agenda and past minutes) and voted to approve a certified survey map (lot split) for a proposed Northland Electric site and a lot-combination request for a Willow Court property.
The New London Planning Commission handled several routine votes on May 22, approving the meeting agenda and past meeting minutes and voting on two land-recording actions.
Housekeeping: The commission adopted the meeting agenda and approved the Feb. 27, 2025 planning commission minutes by voice vote.
Lot split / CSM: The commission approved a certified survey map to split parcel 333-065-612 in the Northeast Business Center for a proposed Northland Electric development. The split would create two lots nearly two acres each (approximately 2.00 and 1.9885 acres) with the purchaser seeking the first lot; the purchase offer and any first-right-of-refusal language were to be handled later through the City Council and economic-development process. Driveway access points, stormwater routing to a nearby retention pond and driveway spacing were raised as technical items to be confirmed during final engineering and council review.
Lot combination / CSM: The commission approved combining lots 33-01-72-5 and 33-01-72-8 (property at 534 Cattail / Willow Court) at the request of the owner who plans to fence the combined parcel and extend an addition. The applicant stated the purpose is to prevent construction of a new house next door and allow a continuous fence across what would otherwise be a lot line.
