Planning board grants special use permit for accessory apartment at 94 Ridgeline Drive
Summary
After a brief public hearing with no significant opposition, the board approved a special use permit for an accessory apartment at 94 Ridgeline Drive and adopted a resolution with standard conditions including professional staff map review.
At its June 18 meeting, the La Grange Planning Board approved a special use permit for an accessory apartment at 94 Ridgeline Drive, granting the applicant (Peter Avola) the requested permit after staff reported no significant public objections and a drafted resolution was presented.
Applicant Peter Avola said the downstairs unit is intended as part of a multigenerational living arrangement and that the required notices and narrative have been submitted. Staff recommended the board review the final map and condition the approval on professional map review and compliance with fees and legal documents. The board voted to approve the special use permit by motion; the motion carried.
Why it matters: Accessory apartments are subject to town code restrictions (one bedroom maximum for accessory units in this zoning category) and the board’s approval creates a recorded condition requiring a final map review and chair endorsement of the final map.
Provenance: Presentation and board resolution for 94 Ridgeline Drive are recorded in transcript SEG 274–362.
