Mather said the developer had received a peer‑review letter from Bales & Thomas and was preparing a response, and that the team had become aware of water‑connection issues that must be resolved with the Department of Environmental Protection, the city of Taunton, and the La Verne Hills homeowners association.

Mather asked the board to continue the hearing until its April meeting so the developer could address the peer‑review comments and work with the identified agencies and associations on the water connection. The board moved to accept the letter and continue the hearing to April 17; the motion passed unanimously.

The developer’s letter asked for the April date because the next scheduled meeting in March was only three weeks away and would not provide adequate time to complete the necessary reviews and coordination. The board noted the request and continued the matter to its April 17 meeting; staff will post the continued hearing and track any additional submissions from the applicant.

No substantive testimony on the Phase 6 changes was taken at the Feb. 27 meeting because the item was continued.","Attorney Robert Mather requested — and the Zoning Board of Appeals granted — a continuance of the public hearing on requested modifications for Phase 6 of the Residences at La Verne Hills until the board's April 17 meeting, citing a peer review and unresolved water‑connection questions.",{"_33":89,"_35":36,"_37":38,"_39":90,"_41":91,"_43":92,"_45":93,"_47":94,"_49":95,"_51":96,"_53":97,"_55":56,"_57":58,"_59":98,"_61":62,"_63":64,"_65":99,"_67":68,"_69":70,"_71":72,"_73":74,"_75":74},6306424,"Lakeville ZBA approves special permit to expand preexisting nonconforming house at 4 Marigold Lane; Board of Health deed restriction required",912,4130000,5042000,"/Search/View?dp=1&key=2437966-53f877ee3c11fe1b1d1ca8d7741d5f3b&start=4130&end=5042","https://assets.pipeline.soar.com/2437966-53f877ee3c11fe1b1d1ca8d7741d5f3b/thumbnail_4130000.jpg","/articles/6306424/Massachusetts/Lakeville-ZBA-approves-special-permit-to-expand-preexisting-nonconforming-house-at-4-Marigold-Lane-Board-of-Health-deed-restriction-required","https://secure.pipeline.soar.com/6306424-0619cdaa77d44a7fbc581a9f455e97ac/orig.mp4?Expires=1770689758&Signature=Yzhgl43pwPS5fQK5fIkQunNOfd~v1OLGmS07IzxP6Beq4sOnEE3QrI2dNKTQVHOlL-qsdzAcypsiH-NuxJBKFeBZzR~R~f7V14SMF1792HIsXSUgZ4UAdRSjPh2nlwsnKLkFOnjA8wJe0l9LF0uNVd4MncEv~NzHUK046r30SHgw~XejQC~TU3CpWVAq0UEP0BHX3iTZ28~L7p47tTgDdWeV0S1LiWzey9dfyd7UoUgE1INV4AZ4c5eYC9m7WzBtQO7NmZBF7-GGy222PAwZgWMCPRjTTdLMC6IC0VqNZmsZJ3CnkUnfugOqGyXIZchQxAITp2bEGbldGs0PYZZ4SA__&Key-Pair-Id=KUT5TJCACFTXG","The Lakeville Zoning Board of Appeals voted unanimously on Feb. 27 to grant a special permit allowing an addition and a front‑deck expansion to a preexisting nonconforming dwelling at 4 Marigold Lane. The applicant was represented by attorney Craig Hartwell; the board approved the plans conditioned on the Board of Health’s receipt of a recorded two‑bedroom deed restriction before the issuance of a building permit.

Craig Hartwell told the board the petition seeks a finding that the proposed alteration \"is not substantially more detrimental than the existing structure\" and requested a special permit to build the addition as shown on the submitted plans. Hartwell provided measurements the board reviewed: the lot area is 9,787 square feet and current frontage is 65.25 feet; left side setback will remain at 12.5 feet. The proposal would reduce the right side setback from 26.5 feet to 10.6 feet and reduce the front setback from 15.6 feet to 6.5 feet for the new deck; Hartwell noted the proposed deck would not extend beyond an existing ledge at the front of the property.

The board read three department memos into the record. A Jan. 27 memo from the fire chief reminded the applicant that renovations exceeding 50 percent of a structure’s value trigger compliance with the state building code for smoke and carbon monoxide alarms and flagged limited emergency access in the neighborhood. The Board of Health’s Feb. 19 memo stated the existing septic is designed for a two‑bedroom home and directed that the dwelling remain two bedrooms through a recorded two‑bedroom deed restriction; the Board of Health said it would have no objection if it receives the recorded restriction prior to its own hearing. A Feb. 13 planning board memo raised concerns about restricted access for emergency apparatus, proximity between structures at 2 and 4 Marigold Lane after the change, and reduced parking access with the proposed changes.

In response to practical concerns, Hartwell said the proposal will move parking to the front of the house to provide room for two cars, rather than the existing rear parking. Residents who spoke in favor — including Pauline Robello of 3 Marigold Lane and Alan Hoffman of 5 Marigold Lane — told the board they support the application as an improvement that will allow the family to remain in the neighborhood.

A motion to approve the plans as submitted passed unanimously. The approval was conditioned on the Board of Health receiving a recorded two‑bedroom deed restriction at the registry of deeds prior to issuance of a building permit; the board indicated that compliance with the building code provisions cited by the fire chief will be required as part of the permit review.

The board noted it has 14 days to complete paperwork after the vote and will file with the town clerk to start the 20‑day appeal period.","On Feb. 27 the Lakeville Zoning Board of Appeals approved a special permit to expand a preexisting nonconforming dwelling at 4 Marigold Lane, subject to a recorded two‑bedroom deed restriction required by the Board of Health and other routine conditions.",{"_33":101,"_35":36,"_37":38,"_39":102,"_41":103,"_43":104,"_45":105,"_47":106,"_49":107,"_51":108,"_53":109,"_55":56,"_57":58,"_59":110,"_61":62,"_63":64,"_65":111,"_67":68,"_69":70,"_71":72,"_73":74,"_75":74},6306428,"Developers present conceptual 20‑lot comprehensive‑permit plan for 6 Barstow Street in Lakeville",792,3282000,4074000,"/Search/View?dp=1&key=2437966-53f877ee3c11fe1b1d1ca8d7741d5f3b&start=3282&end=4074","https://assets.pipeline.soar.com/2437966-53f877ee3c11fe1b1d1ca8d7741d5f3b/thumbnail_3282000.jpg","/articles/6306428/Massachusetts/Developers-present-conceptual-20lot-comprehensivepermit-plan-for-6-Barstow-Street-in-Lakeville","https://secure.pipeline.soar.com/6306428-c62db6bdd0ac97512d5faad53a79f02a/orig.mp4?Expires=1770689758&Signature=ZSOih~k9EEgz2vujKEXm0H7hbAmWBaRF7msFrt1vnhBd-wLxK0C6TdfUvzbDaT7c2VEkAB1GQR6WF~JploSfckOUb-cQOeKzXIuNYcZb2Sn01x8NORCSlWK4Y4FSqUvXQ-NtrJcJZoHaiZGj1gvPptZFBytYvKCk2aY6HeLRqsAtc6pIgbaH4Rf~jUw-fqEWNsc2UD0ECbWaSoHqxE88M8nqE3apvbZDqGfb5sfmS3qPAAySKhfIUcunr0LHShTXAkoPtmhomN33y3CtPn1GnUv4zDpsVZPrZ1LO8wsbvhXeBnV~yUDQ3LFFek54frXSZG9bfT6REja49KBF6mB2LQ__&Key-Pair-Id=KUT5TJCACFTXG","Developers presented a conceptual plan for a 20‑lot comprehensive permit for property identified as 6 Barstow Street and 127 Precinct Street during the Lakeville Zoning Board of Appeals meeting on Feb. 27. The board received the presentation for feedback only; no filing or formal decision was requested.

The plan, presented by Jamie Businet, would carve a residential subdivision out of part of an existing equestrian property while keeping the core equestrian facilities. \"We're not looking at 4,000‑square‑foot houses here,\" Businet said, describing proposed footprints generally under 2,000 square feet with two‑car garages. The developer said the layout envisions mainly three‑bedroom homes on lots ranging from about a quarter to a third of an acre and that each new house would use on‑lot septic systems with municipal water available at the street.

The project team described the site as an active equestrian facility with roughly 40–50 horses today and said the owner might downsize the herd by about 10 animals but is not committing to a specific number. The developers said only a portion of the farm — roughly 7–8 acres in the immediate carve‑out — would be developed; the larger parcel would remain in equestrian use. \"The facility itself, we're only developing a small part of it. So there's still gonna be roughly 30 acres that's left as not housing,\" the team told the board in response to a resident question on wildlife habitat.

Board members asked about buffering between new lots and the equestrian operations, driveway turnarounds, the potential for a future phase, and whether the new roadway would be public. The presenters said the owner — who also runs the equestrian operation — is likely to address buffering concerns and that the new subdivision roadway would not be a public street. Marshall (identified in the meeting as present), responding to questions about a turnaround between Lots 19 and 20, said a widened area was left partly for possible future expansion and current farm access.

The developers said they plan to pursue the project as a \"friendly 40B\" with MassHousing and asked for early feedback before filing. They also noted a separate transportation change — the planned relocation of the Route 79/Precinct Street/Myrick Street intersection — would alter the intersection geometry and likely improve site access. Projected roadway length on the plan was described as roughly 1,250–1,300 linear feet.

The board and audience exchanged informal comments; resident Pauline Robello asked whether habitat and open land would remain for wildlife and was told the majority of the property would remain undeveloped. No formal action was taken; the item was presented as a conceptual introduction and the developers said they would return later with formal filings and more detailed engineering and permitting information.

Meeting context: the board member who normally opened the meeting recused from this agenda item and turned it over to Acting Chair Jeff Youngquist for the discussion. The board did not vote on the conceptual plan and provided only advisory feedback for the applicants as they prepare to file with MassHousing.

Next steps cited by presenters: more detailed percolation testing, septic design per lot, potential adjustments tied to soils and perc results, clarification on phasing and who will build infrastructure, and timing coordination with the Myrick Street work.","At the Feb. 27 Lakeville Zoning Board of Appeals meeting, developers presented a preliminary plan for a 20‑lot comprehensive permit at 6 Barstow Street and 127 Precinct Street. The discussion was informational only; no application was filed and no vote taken.","actionData","errors"]
