Why rezone these parcels and not
'a'
others on Route 114?
1. North End of Route 114
was Already Zoned at
last Year's Town
Meeting uniformly to a
Planned Commercial
District.
2. South End of Route 114
is Already Zoned for
Industrial Uses .
3. This will tie up the loose
ends in the middle of
Route 114 for Uniform
Zoning Classifications.
Is there a concern about Non-
Conforming Lots '?
• No. There are 18 lots in total to be rezoned. Thirteen lots
are already non-conforming and will remain so. One lot will
be conforming regardless of its current zoning or proposed.
Four lots [in the Residential Zone] will become non-
conforming.
• However, the residential uses for the non-conforming lots are
still allowed under the zoning bylaw classification of
Business 1.
• For those lots that DO become non-conforming, the intent is
that they merge with adjacent lots to create viable
commercial and retail uses upon them. This is the same
philosophy used by the Planning Board in creating the
Planned Commercial Development District in the Northern
End of Ro 14 ap r ved at last year's,to n t�g.
