PZC approves site plan for lakefront house at 61 Vernon Road
Summary
The Bolton Planning & Zoning Commission voted 7–0 to approve a site plan allowing construction of a single-family residence on an existing foundation at 61 Vernon Road; the Inland Wetlands Commission had approved the project and staff said erosion‑and‑sediment controls will be followed.
The Bolton Planning & Zoning Commission approved a site plan for a single‑family house at 61 Vernon Road on Wednesday, voting 7–0 to authorize construction on an existing foundation near the lake.
The motion to approve was made by Chairman Tom Manning and seconded by Vice‑Chair James Cropley; the vote was recorded as 7:0:0. Commissioners found the proposal in compliance with section 450‑3.7 (Wetland conservation) of the Bolton Zoning Regulations, and staff reported the Inland Wetlands Commission had approved the application and that erosion‑and‑sediment controls will be installed and maintained.
Jon and Ken Boynton of Boynton Construction told the commission the house will sit about 50 feet from the lake on an existing foundation. The Boyntons said the lot contains its own well and neighboring properties use separate wells; the structure will include a basement to provide lower‑level lake access, which the applicants estimated would be approximately six to seven feet above the lake surface.
The application is identified in the minutes header as "#PL‑25‑5," while the motion recorded by the chair in the same minutes references "#PL‑25‑4." The minutes contain that discrepancy; the commission record of approval and the wetland‑conservation finding appear in the same session. Town records should be consulted to confirm the definitive file number for permits and subsequent inspections.
The commission took no additional action on the item at the meeting. The session adjourned at 8:29 p.m.
