Board approves grandfathered growth permit; new Owls Nest lot cleared with frontage confirmed
Summary
A growth permit for an existing grandfathered lot on Newfield Road (Fraser) was approved for the existing 11‑acre lot while the board noted any additional new lot would require private‑way approval; a separate new lot on Owls Nest Road met frontage requirements and proceeded.
The planning board approved a growth permit for an existing, grandfathered lot on Newfield Road (Fraser), while clarifying that any new lot cut from the same right of way would require private‑way approval. The board also reviewed and cleared a separate new lot on Owls Nest Road that met road frontage requirements.
Staff explained the Fraser property has a 50‑foot right of way and is grandfathered; the board said it would only approve the existing 11‑acre grandfathered lot and that any proposed new lot would trigger private‑way review and further board consideration. Regarding Owls Nest Road, planners confirmed required road frontage and allowed the proposed new lot to proceed under current standards. The board recorded its notes to clarify that future lot splits coming off the same access will require a private‑way approval process.
