Board and developer clarify ownership and lot configuration for Briley Farm amendment
Summary
Board members pressed the applicant on who owns Lot 10, whether the new parcels would be assigned to builders immediately, and how the corner lot would face; the applicant said transfers have not been finalized and that subsequent subdivision and builder assignments will use separate town processes.
During questions following the staff presentation on Ordinance 20 26 0 4, board members asked for specifics about ownership, builder assignments and the orientation of the proposed corner lot.
A board member asked, "So who which builder has Lot 10?" The applicant representative, Bobby Johnson of Gemini Land Development, responded that they did not yet know which builder would take Lot 10: "It hasn't been transferred yet, so I I don't know which, I don't know if it's been purchased yet." He confirmed the existing house (referred to as the grandmother's house) would become Lot 12 as part of the PD change and that the new Lot D would be oriented to face east rather than front Briley Ave.
Board members also sought clarity on whether the approval before them would automatically assign the new parcels to builders. Planning staff explained that the board's action brings Lot 12 into the planned development and authorizes the split in concept, but that the developer would return through the town's separate subdivision and approval processes for final parceling and builder assignments.
Those procedural clarifications were followed by a motion to adopt the ordinance, which the board approved.
