 Appendix C. SUBDIVISION REGULATIONS

  § 2. Approval required.  

Latest version.

  • No subdivision or resubdivision of land as defined in section 1 shall be sold or offered for sale or lease, nor shall any building permit be granted within such subdivision or resubdivision until the subdivision or resubdivision plan shall have been granted final approval by the commission and recorded by the town clerk. A public hearing shall be held for any subdivision application, except for a minor subdivision.

    a.

    De facto subdivision. Should a developer have built upon the same tract or parcel of land two or more houses, or have divided such tract or parcel of land into three or more lots, and it seems otherwise evident to the commission that he is in fact developing a subdivision even though no application for such subdivision has been made, the commission may declare the tract or parcel a subdivision and require the developer to make application as required in these regulations, unless the developer can reasonably prove to the commission that his actions do not constitute a subdivision. Failure to follow the action of the commission shall make the developer liable to appropriate penalties as indicated in this section and no further building permits will be granted on such until the developer has compiled.

    b.

    Penalty. Any person, firm, or corporation making any subdivision of land without the approval of the commission shall be fined not more than $500.00 for each lot sold or offered for sale or so subdivided.

    c.

    [ Moratorium. ] A moratorium on subdivision within any residential or historic residential district shall be in effect commencing 15 days after date of approval of this section by the planning and zoning commission, and running continuously thereafter for a period of nine months. During this moratorium period, no application for subdivision within any residential or historic residential district shall be received by the planning and zoning commission (expired).

    1.

    A moratorium on subdivision within any residential or historic residential district shall be in effect commencing immediately upon the termination of the moratorium described in section 2c. of these regulations, and running continuously thereafter for a period of six months. During this moratorium period, no application for subdivision within any residential or historic residential district shall be received by the planning and zoning commission (expired).
