Fayston DRB finds Long family subdivision application complete; hearing closed for deliberation
Summary
The Fayston Development Review Board on Jan. 6 found Applications #3990 and #3991 (Long) complete and closed the hearing after hearing presentation on lot reconfiguration, a proposed new house lot and contingencies related to a mapped wetland and an existing driveway grade that slightly exceeds the town's 15% rule.
The Town of Fayston Development Review Board voted on Jan. 6 to find complete Applications #3990 and #3991 from the Long family for a minor subdivision and boundary adjustment, and then closed the public hearing and moved into deliberation.
Gunner McCain, who presented the proposal to the board, said the project would reconfigure existing land along Tucker Hill Road so that one Long parcel would grow from about 1 acre to roughly 3.3 acres to meet setback requirements, while an adjoining parcel owned by Eastman Long would be subdivided to create a new lot for a future house. "There are two existing Long properties along Tucker Hill Road," McCain said. He added that the applicants requested a combined sketch-plan and final hearing so the board could consider the matter now.
Board members voted on procedural motions during the meeting: Ky Koitsch moved to find the application complete and Mike Quenneville seconded; the motion carried unanimously. The board later accepted a motion to close the hearing and proceed to deliberation. Daniel Young, who presided, noted that the board will address the application in deliberation and return any final decisions as required by procedure.
The presentation addressed ownership and future plans: McCain said Judy Long's son is expected to be the future owner of the new lot and that the applicants do intend to build a house there in the future. The applicants stated they will return to the board for any future development approvals for lots reserved with no immediate building plans.
The board's next procedural step is deliberation; no final approval or denial of the subdivision or conditional use was recorded in the minutes. Any conditions, approvals of a mylar or required amendments will be decided after deliberation and noted in subsequent minutes.
