Board advises resident on whether 10,000‑sq.‑ft. back lot can be developed under new state law
Summary
Residents asked whether a 10,000-square-foot lot at Harris Pond Road and Champlain Avenue can be built upon. The board said the lot is not in the village overlay, that assessors and zoning are separate, and that a recent state law change may allow some commonly owned lots (>=10,000 sq. ft. and >=75 ft frontage) to be 'unmerged' and buildable under certain size and bedroom limits; staff will supply statutory citations and guidance.
A resident asked the Planning Board whether a 10,000-square-foot back lot on Harris Pond Road at Champlain Avenue could be sold and developed. Board members confirmed the parcel does not fall within the village overlay and said the applicant should provide buyer/contact information so the board can supply statutory references and a clear procedural path.
