Summary
The planning board approved a minor lot‑line adjustment that conveys a 5 ft strip (about 1,500 sq ft) to avoid moving a fence and granted two subdivision waivers, contingent on corrected acreage on the final plan set.
The Brentwood Planning Board approved a lot‑line adjustment that conveys a narrow, roughly 5‑foot strip along 14 Lyford Lane to correct a fence that sits over the property line.
Waymore, representing Jones Beach Engineers and acting for Trinity Re Revocable Trust (trustee Joseph Francis Conley), told the board the adjustment conveys approximately 1,500 square feet from a 19.9‑acre parcel owned by Granite Trees LLC to an adjoining 2.46‑acre lot. He asked two minor waivers from the town's subdivision regulations: full topographic coverage of the 19.9‑acre parcel (Section 6.24) and full location/detail requirements (Section 8.6), arguing that surveying 19 acres to convey a 5‑foot strip would be disproportionate to the scope of the change.
The board found Glenn's technical comments had been addressed in a revised plan presented that evening, and members voted to grant the two requested waivers and approve the boundary adjustment contingent on the final plan reflecting corrected acreage and including waiver notes for the printed plan set. A board member noted the acreage differences shown earlier were a rounding error and that the final signed plan would incorporate Glenn's corrections.
The waivers will be added as notes on the final plan that the board signs; the applicant agreed to provide an electronic copy of the corrected plan set to the planning office.
