Per your request for an advisory opinion, the Planning Board considered the following application at
their May 23 meeting:
ZBA #20240 196 16 MARION AVEJ2 AVENUE A. SUBDIVISION, Consideration of an Advisory
Opinion to the ZBA for an area variance from the minimum lot requirements for a proposed 2-lot
subdivision in the Urban Residential — 2 (UR-2) District.
Following discussion, the Planning Board resolved the following:
Motion to issue a favorable advisory opinion — passed 5-0 (Marshall, McTygue, Morrison, King,
Stellato) with the following comment:
Recognizing that redevelopment of the lots will likely occur, the ZBA should evaluate whether
a north -south subdivision would be more appropriate than the proposed east -west division.
Such a layout would provide for vehicular access/driveways to both lots from Avenue A (as
opposed to Marion Ave.).
If you have any questions, please contact Susan Barden, planning staff to the Planning Board.
