Canale Charles Hornig Michael Leon, Associate December 28, 2015 Joseph N. Pato, Chair Board of Selectmen 1625 Massachusetts Avenue Lexington, Mass. 02420 Dear Mr. Pato: As you know, the Planning Board has been working on several zoning initiatives that the Board wishes to bring to Town Meeting for further discussion and public process. The Planning Board, at its meetings of December 9 and 16, voted to request that the Board of Selectmen place the following articles on the 2016 Annual Town Meeting warrant: 1. National Flood Insurance District 2. Technical Changes 3. Governmental – Civic Use District(s) 4. Neighborhood Conservation Districts (General Bylaw) 5. Maximum Height of Structures 6. Accessory Apartments 7. Floor Area Ratio (FAR) 8. Two-Family Homes 9. Banking & Real Estate Service Uses in the CB District 10. Planned Development Districts We are also aware of a citizen article seeking to revise RD-6, a planned development district, at Brookhaven. Our suggested titles and warrant language is attached. They are written broadly to allow for adjustments to their scope based on anticipated public comment gathered at the public hearings and other public meetings that are likely to be held before Town Meeting. Staff is available to help, should there need to be any revisions before the printing deadline. For the Board, Aaron Henry, Planning Director T OWN OF L EXINGTON PLANNING BOARD 1625 Massachusetts Avenue, Lexington, Massachusetts 02420 T. 781-698-4560 F. 781-861-2748 www.lexingtonma.gov/planning.cfm planning@lexingtonma.gov Nancy Corcoran-Ronchetti, Chair Timothy Dunn, Vice Chair Ginna Johnson, Clerk Richard L. Canale Charles Hornig Michael Leon, Associate National Flood Insurance District To see if the Town will vote to amend the Zoning Bylaw and Zoning Map to update the National Flood Insurance District, or act in any other manner in relation thereto. DESCRIPTION: This article updates the National Flood Insurance District bylaw and map to reflect a recent update to the Shawsheen River watershed. Technical Corrections To see if the Town will amend the Zoning Bylaw to correct internal references, remove unreferenced definitions, and reformat sections of the Bylaw to help clarify the intent of the Bylaw to its readers, or act in any other manner in relation thereto. DESCRIPTION: These changes are corrective in nature and are not intended to change interpretation in any substantive way. Governmental – Civic Use District(s) To see if the Town will vote to amend the Zoning Bylaw and Zoning Map by defining a new district or districts, including establishing allowed uses, dimensional standards and transition and screening requirements and amend the Zoning Map by rezoning parcels owned by governmental bodies held for public use into the new district, or act in any other manner in relation thereto. DESCRIPTION: The Governmental – Civic Use (GC) zoning district is proposed to recognize the public nature of particular parcels of land and provide standards and guidelines for their continued use while ensuring that the use of these properties is related to the policies of the community, and that any development in the district, if any, will be compatible with surrounding districts and uses. Neighborhood Conservation Districts (General Bylaw) To see if the Town will vote to amend its General Bylaws to enable the creation of neighborhood conservation districts, or act in any other manner in relation thereto. DESCRIPTION: A neighborhood conservation district (NCD) is a tool used to preserve, protect, and enhance significant areas within a community beyond what is specified in the zoning bylaw. The conservation regulations are applied in addition to standard zoning regulations and will usually take precedence. NCD regulations will differ from neighborhood to neighborhood depending on the area’s character and needs. Because they do not regulate as strictly as historic districts, NCDs are typically used as an alternative to them in areas where alterations have already occurred but protection of the overall scale, streetscape, and significant buildings is necessary. Maximum Height of Structures To see if the Town will vote to amend the Zoning Bylaw to reduce the maximum height of one- family and two-family dwellings located near lot lines, or act in any other manner in relation thereto. DESCRIPTION: This article would limit the height of new houses or additions located close to lot lines. T OWN OF L EXINGTON PLANNING BOARD 1625 Massachusetts Avenue, Lexington, Massachusetts 02420 T. 781-698-4560 F. 781-861-2748 www.lexingtonma.gov/planning.cfm planning@lexingtonma.gov Nancy Corcoran-Ronchetti, Chair Timothy Dunn, Vice Chair Ginna Johnson, Clerk Richard L. Canale Charles Hornig Michael Leon, Associate Accessory Apartments To see if the Town will vote to amend the Zoning Bylaw to change the conditions and requirements for accessory apartments, or act in any other manner in relation thereto. DESCRIPTION: This article would relax some existing conditions and requirements that limit the ability to construct accessory apartments. These requirements include lot area, presence of rooming units, connection to Town water and sewer, ownership, location of parking, and age of structure. Floor Area Ratio (FAR) To see if the Town will vote to amend the Zoning By-Law to limit the gross floor area of one- family and two-family dwellings, or act in any other manner in relation thereto. DESCRIPTION: This article would limit the size of new houses or additions in relation to their lot size. Two-Family Homes To see if the Town will vote to amend the Zoning Bylaw to permit two-family dwellings wherever one-family dwellings are permitted, or act in any other manner in relation thereto. DESCRIPTION: This article would permit construction of two-family dwellings by right in all districts where one-family dwellings are permitted. Banking & Real Estate Service Uses in the CB District To see if the Town will vote to amend the Zoning Bylaw to require special permits for banking and real estate service uses in the CB District and repeal the moratorium set to expire on July 31, 2016 on banks in center storefronts, or act in any other manner in relation thereto. DESCRIPTION: This article would delete the sections of the bylaw related to the banking moratorium established by the 2015 Annual Town Meeting while proposing a special permit from the Zoning Board of Appeals to establish, move, or expand banking and real estate service business in center storefronts in the CB District. Planned Development Districts To see if the Town will vote to amend the Zoning By-Law and Zoning Map to simplify the standards, processes, and terminology for planned development districts, or act in any other manner in relation thereto. DESCRIPTION: This article would make several changes to processes related to Planned Development, including: 1. Replacing the current RD and CD district types with a single district type with no predetermined standards (like the current CD); 2. Using normal Town Meeting processes for zoning changes involving planned development districts rather than special rules; 3. Using the site plan review process to review final plans rather than the special permit process; and 4. Renaming existing RD and CD districts.
