Walworth planning board approves Mattison site plan at 5215 Tummonds Road with conditions

The Town of Walworth Planning Board on May 11 approved a site plan allowing Glenn and Ann Mattison to build a three‑bedroom, one‑story single‑family home at or about 5215 Tummonds Road.

The board’s resolution found the application to be a SEQRA Type II action and approved the plan subject to conditions that require the applicant to address outstanding comments from the Town and the Town engineer (including a May 5, 2026 letter from MRB Group), provide any necessary easements for public improvements, complete required utility districting to the satisfaction of the Town Board or designee, obtain permits from other agencies as required, and comply with Town Code §151‑19 regarding security, among other routine items.

Glenn Mattison, the property owner, told the board he was "looking to downsize to a three‑bedroom single‑family, one‑story home" and that, according to his engineer, the proposal complies with setback requirements. He also presented a paper map of the parcel and the proposed new house that had not been included in the packet; the map was accepted into the Town’s records.

Chairperson Landry opened the public hearing; no members of the public spoke. After brief board discussion and confirmation that the required engineer and code‑enforcement comments must be addressed, Patricia Marini moved to approve the resolution with conditions; Doug Flye seconded and the board voted unanimously to approve.

The resolution notes the presence of an existing single‑family dwelling elsewhere on the property and places responsibility on the applicant to resolve outstanding engineering and code issues before final approvals and permits are issued. The Town Building Inspector and Town engineer must be satisfied with outstanding items before any building permits are issued.
