STAFF COMMENTS
The applicant proposes to subdivide a 3.8 acre parcel into a 2 lot commercial subdivision. The larger parcel of
2.88 acres currently has an existing building with businesses and a pavilion towards the rear of the property.

The plans do show contour of the existing lot and setbacks. The applicant is requesting preliminary and final
review of the 2-lot subdivision. The applicant has indicated the plans will be updated to show a shared
driveway so both parcels have access to Route 9 from the driveway, a 20 ft. wide interconnect to be shown
between the two properties, and the existing commercial property has adequate parking for the site uses.
SUMMARY
The applicant has requested a waiver from Sketch Plan Stage review. The Long Environmental Assessment
