The ANR note "Not a buildable lot" is quite common on ANRs. I've seen many ANR plans have them when not necessarily true just because it was a note the engineer left on all ANRs and it wasn't removed.

A few years ago the owner of a property came in to do an ANR on a property in Shirley.  They divided out a large parcel into 2 parcels with one having adequate frontage and square footage and the other (though it has over 5 acres of land) only with 89' of frontage (not adequate for that zone) so they appropriately marked it "not a buildable lot" for the sake of the ANR.  The owner of that property now wants to put a house on the "not a buildable lot" property using the Town's hammerhead lot portion of the zoning by-law which only requires 50" frontage.  Is this appropriate even though it is marked "not a buildable lot"?  Is that "not a buildable lot" title a forever thing or can be built on under the right situations?

It would seem that, if it met your frontage requirements for a hammerhead lot to begin with, it was never "not a buildable lot".

I would have them record another ANR with the "not a buildable lot" removed from the map, then let them build the house.
