RE: Proposed Amendment to Subdivision Control By-Law

From time to time, we are approached by owners of large RS-1 lots to split their Property into two lots, However, due to the siting of the existing house, subdivision is found to be not possible due to the fact that the new lot to be created does not meet the 50-foot frontage requirement even though the size of the new lot will be in excess of 5,400 square feet.

Since the adoption of the new Zoning By-law with the we have been able to deal with this type of i 5 RS-1 A prior to new lot can be reduced to

401 (d)

uneconomical use of 1 one of the lots to be crea 20%, provided that

(i) the overall frontage of the parcel is adequate to produce the same number of lots having frontage of not less than 50 feet if the dwelling is removed, and

the lot to which frontage reduction is granted has a lot size of not less than

5,400 square feet. LATA PEM RECEIVED AT: sunt .2d Qu em MAY.2.8 1979
