Under Ch. 41, Section 81L, the Board was a llowed to divide the single lot into two nonconforming lots from a dimensional perspective. Even though the single lot did not meet the lot requirement for the zoning district, the division would still make the two lots more conforming . It would place a single building on each lot versus the current two buildings on one lot. A division would also make it easier for the property owner to sell the two individual properties. Both buildings have municipal sewer. The applicant requested a waiver from the re quirement for a topographical plan. P. Bertram made Motion to approve the ANR for 159 Massachusetts Avenue, E. Torgersen Seconded, Vote passed 4-0.
