(see letter) <br />All pertinent material is on file in the Board of Appeals' office. <br />The meeting adjourned at 10 p.m. <br />Evelyn F. Cole, Clerk <br />* Although the Planning Board letter was not read into the record it should <br />be recorded and a copy of the wording follows: <br />Dear Mr. Nickerson: <br />The Planning Board has reviewed the petition of Robert T. Dunham, Robert T. <br />Dunham, Jr., Paul Shea and Barbara Shea, for a variance from the provisions <br />of Sections 26 and 27 of the zoning by-law, for the consolidation of three <br />lots into two lots. <br />These lots have no frontage as required under Section 27 of the zoning by- <br />law. The Planning Board recommends that this petition be denied, and that <br />the owners of the land apply to the Planning Board for a two lot subdivision. <br />Under the Subdivision Control law, adequate frontage will be required to <br />service these lots. However, the extension of Leonard Road will reduce the <br />areas of the lots below those required to meet the Subdivision Regulations. <br />Therefore, the developer should first apply to the Board of Appeals for a <br />variance to allow reductions in lot sizes, with the stipulation that he <br />then apply to the Planning Board for the development of land in accordance <br />with the Subdivision Control law. <br />Sincerely, <br />LEXINGTON PLANNING BOARD <br />/s/ Eric T. Clarke, Chairman <br />
