Planning board endorses ANR filing to create house lot on East Hodges
Summary
The Norton Planning Board endorsed ANR 23 for 0 East Hodges after the applicant, Christopher Polk, described splitting a ~40-acre parcel to create a house lot with frontage and access from East Hodges Street; the motion to endorse was made and seconded and the board voted to endorse the lot split.
The Norton Planning Board endorsed an ANR (approval-not-required) filing for 0 East Hodges on Tuesday after hearing from the owner-applicant, Christopher Polk.
Polk told the board he owns property adjacent to the parcel identified as Parcel ID 36,2 and is seeking to cut off a house lot for family use while retaining roughly 40 acres of the remaining land. Board members reviewed the lot’s frontage and access, and the chair said the parcel meets the required frontage and shape-factor standards for an ANR split and that the building inspector reported no issues.
Board members asked clarifying questions about frontage lengths and whether the residual acreage could support additional lots; Polk said the remaining land holds well over 40 acres and he was reserving the larger portion for continued ownership. There were no public comments.
A motion to endorse ANR 23 for 0 East Hodges was made and seconded; members responded in the affirmative and the chair announced the endorsement. The board provided no additional conditions during the endorsement; any building permit or future subdivision would require separate review and inspections by town officials.
The Planning Board moved on to other agenda items and did not take further votes on the parcel at this meeting.
