Board recommends preliminary consideration for 247 Cataras three‑lot subdivision; final action contingent on county review
Summary
Engineers described a three‑lot subdivision at 247 Cataras Avenue with two new home lots and conservation easements; the board recommended the applicant return with clarified plans after County Planning Board review and that preliminary plat be placed on a future consent agenda.
An engineering team from Studio Way presented a proposal to subdivide 247 Cataras Avenue into three lots, two intended for single‑family homes with on‑site wastewater absorption trenches and one to retain the existing house with conservation easements. Katie Loughman, the project engineer, said the new lots would be served by municipal water via a connection coordinated with DPW and that on‑site absorption trenches will handle wastewater for the new lots.
The board complimented the concept and asked for clarifications on setbacks, the placement of pools and patios near property lines, and how conservation areas would be managed. Because the County Planning Board has not yet completed its review, the board agreed it cannot take final action and instead will prepare a preliminary‑plat recommendation for the consent agenda after the county referral is resolved.
