Planning Board gives preliminary OK to Matt Nowak’s proposed 0.78‑acre subdivision
Summary
Matthew Nowak joined by Zoom to describe a proposed subdivision of 0.78 acres from his Lake Road property, leaving 3.7 acres; the board gave preliminary approval contingent on a survey and practical driveway approval from the highway department.
Matthew Nowak joined the meeting by Zoom to inform the Planning Board of his intent to subdivide a 0.78‑acre parcel with 120 feet of road frontage from an existing residential lot on Lake Road, leaving about 3.7 acres. Nowak said the new lot would not have natural gas service and described the intended ranch house footprint. The board asked that a formal survey be provided before final approvals.
Board members expressed no concerns about the proposed division and noted that the highway department had been receptive to a separate driveway opening; the board gave preliminary approval subject to a survey. Bill McKee moved to grant preliminary approval and Janine Fogarty seconded; the motion passed unanimously. The board instructed Nowak to submit a survey for the next step in the subdivision review process.
Why it matters: subdivision creates a new buildable parcel that will change ownership patterns and requires coordination with highway access approvals; the Planning Board's preliminary approval allows Nowak to move forward with required documentation.
Next steps: applicant to submit a survey and documentation of driveway approval; subsequent Planning Board action will follow receipt of required materials.
