Development Review – Sketch Plan Review – Rivers Edge Subdivision, 23 Waterville Road Map 6 Lot 1A. Gartley and Dorsky Engineering and Surveying have submitted preliminary documents for Planning Board consideration of a proposed 11 lot subdivision on a 37.69 acre parcel.

The minimum lot size in the Protection Rural I Zoning District for a dwelling structure is 2 net acres. The minimum lot size for a cluster housing development in this zone is a half acre for two dwelling units. The Applicant proposes single family homes with an option for accessory apartments. The site features existing large chicken barns, some proposed to be demolished, near the road.
