Salisbury Zoning Board schedules hearing on variance for 71 Old Turnpike Road

The Town of Salisbury Zoning Board of Adjustment listed a public hearing for June 11 on a variance request by Lorna Carlisle, of the Lorna G. Carlisle Revocable Trust, to allow construction of a new residence attached to an existing garage within the front-yard setback at 71 Old Turnpike Road.

The request, as described on the meeting agenda, seeks relief from Article V, Section (E) of the Town of Salisbury Zoning Ordinance. The agenda identifies the property as fronting on 71 Old Turnpike Road (Tax Map 257, Lot 12) and describes the proposed work as a new residential home connected to an existing garage that would encroach into the front-yard setback.

The June 11 agenda also lists procedural business: approval of the April 9, 2026 draft meeting minutes, an item for any other business that may come before the board, and adjournment. The agenda does not record any vote, decision, testimony, or staff report text; it only announces the hearing and the variance being requested.

The board’s agenda entry names the ordinance provision at issue (Article V, Section (E)) but does not include additional factual detail about lot dimensions, the requested setback distance, or whether abutters were notified; those details were not provided in the transcripted agenda. Any testimony, staff recommendations, or formal board action would be recorded at the public hearing itself.
