[Massplanners] Multiple Detached Dwellings bylaw

[Leslie Snell]

Nantucket has a secondary and tertiary lot bylaw that allows a lot that couldn't otherwise be divided, to be divided into two or three lots, provided that the "extra" lots are subject to a covenant limiting the buyers income to 150% AMI.  The lots can also be sold/conveyed to a "qualified family member" without meeting the income limitation, provided that upon resale out of the family, the income requirement applies.

We also have a rear lot subdivision bylaw that, essentially, requires proof that a conventional subdivision or ANR lot division is possible.  The rear lot subdivision can then be approved through the issuance of a special permit by the Planning Board allowing a minimum frontage of 20 feet, flexible lot design, and no compliance with the SRR.  Typically, access to the lots is through a shared driveway and almost all of the applications have created one or two new buildable lots.

Hi All,
Wondering if anyone has or has worked with a bylaw for multiple detached single-family dwellings on a single lot that they like and wouldn't mind sharing.  I'll also take Detached ADU bylaws.
We've seen an uptick of definitive subdivision applications coming in to just create frontage for a new single-family dwelling lot and waive all the SRR requirements. The Board nor DPW or Fire are keen on this so I'm looking into a different avenue for this type of project to be permitted through. Realizing that people may be looking to downsize but can't afford to move anywhere else, this may be a good alternative to allow them to stay in Town.

Thank you, and have a great day!
