In the City of Attleboro, you can't add up lot frontages to meet the minimum
requirement. The distance must be continuous and off the same right-of-way.

Hello Planning Friends and Colleagues,

 

Let's have another round of ANR discussions, shall we?!?!   It's our
favorite listserv topic.

 

I am dealing with a  lot that has frontage on two roads. Both frontages do
not currently conform to zoning. The property owner wants to ANR the
property, and was given guidance that footage from the one side of the lot
with the smallest frontage could be added to the frontage on other side of
the lot to meet the requirements. Our zoning definition of frontage states:
linear extent of a lot measure to the street right of way from the
intersection of one side lot line to the intersection of the other side lot
line of the same lot."  This reads to me that frontage needs to be
"contiguous" for the purposes of an ANR Plan, and that the lot in question
would not be entitled to an ANR endorsement.  Below is nursey school level
diagram of the lot in question.  Anyone care to weigh in?
