Form A/87-31 Lincoln Street William Hamilton: Mrs. Klauminzer did not participate in any action on this item, since she is an abuttor to the property. The Board reviewed a plan showing the transfer of Lot B, not a legal building lot, to be combined with Lot 26, land of Samoylenko, which has frontage on Massachusetts Ave. On the motion of Mr. Sorensen, seconded by Mrs. Wood, it was voted 4-0-1 (Mrs. Klauminzer abstained): to endorse the plan entitled "Plan of Land in Lexington, Mass. (Middle- sex County)", dated December 31, 1987, by Stamski and McNary, Inc., certified by William F. McNary, Registered Land Surveyor, for Lincoln Park Realty Trust, William H. Hamilton, Trustee, with Form A/87-31, as it does not require approval under the subdivision control law. SUBDIVISION OF LAND 3. Wood Street, Ruven Liebhaber, review of sketch plan (second submission): Mr. Sorensen questioned the legality of Lot 1, containing five dwelling units, which was separated from the proposed cluster subdivision. He raised the question because the Zoning By-law prohibits construction on a lot which is created from another lot on which there is a zoning violation. He recom- mended Town Counsel be asked his opinion on the legality of the nonconform- ing lot before the applicant files a preliminary subdivision plan for the rest of the property.
