Sterling PZC approves 1-lot re-subdivision for Iafrate, grants waivers and records open-space waiver note
Summary
The Commission granted waivers and approved Judith Iafrate’s 1-lot re-subdivision with conditions including correcting a drainage easement lot number, adding an IWWC signature block, updating the location map, and noting an open-space waiver under Connecticut General Statutes Section 8.25; motion carried 4-0.
The Sterling Planning & Zoning Commission approved a 1-lot re-subdivision application from Judith Iafrate for property at 80 Porter Pond Road. The Commission granted a set of requested waivers and approved the re-subdivision with conditions; motions carried 4–0.
The Commission granted waivers under the Town’s Subdivision Regulations for items not applicable to a re-subdivision with no public improvements. Waivers approved by motion include: Section 5.3.10 (septic/leach field distances to adjacent uses), Section 5.6 (site analysis plan), Section 5.7.2 (drainage easements), Section 5.8 (construction plans for roads and drainage), Section 5.9 (grading plans) and Section 6.0 (erosion and sediment control plan). The Commission recorded that some waived items will be addressed during the building permit process when the applicant’s son applies for a building permit.
Approval of the re-subdivision carries several conditions: correct the drainage easement lot number on the abutting southerly property; add a signature block for the Inland Wetlands and Watercourses Commission (IWWC) Chair; update the location map to meet Section 5.3.2 (a GIS map is acceptable); and include a notation on plans and mylars that the subdivision has been approved with an open-space waiver under Connecticut General Statutes Section 8.25 (as incorporated into Sterling’s Subdivision Regulations). The Commission also required that lot corners be marked with iron or copper pins or concrete monuments prior to filing the mylars.
The minutes record no public objections; the Commission will note the open-space waiver on the plans and record it in the Land Records as required by statute.
