Fall River Planning Board Approves Key Land Reconfiguration for New Warehouse
- Meeting Overview:
In a recent meeting, the Fall River Planning Board approved the merging of three individual lots into a single perimeter lot on Rodman Street, facilitating the construction of a new warehouse. Additionally, the board endorsed several other land modifications, including a land reconfiguration on North Main Street and the subdivision of land at Our Lady of White Band Inc. on Quarry Street.
The most notable item discussed was the approval for merging three lots into one on Rodman Street. The property, previously subdivided three years ago, will now host a larger warehouse building. The developer plans to establish a Remodelers Outlet location on this newly formed parcel, which required the removal of internal lot lines to meet setback requirements.
Another notable agenda item was the reconfiguration of three existing parcels at 40-41 North Main Street. The minor lot line adjustments were made to meet building setbacks for planned structures without compromising the zoning requirements for the local business district.
The board also approved the subdivision of land belonging to Our Lady of White Band Inc. on Quarry Street. A 10,000 square foot lot was carved out from the southwestern corner of the property, potentially serving as a new revenue source for the club. The remaining land will continue to house the club and its parking facilities, with both parcels conforming to zoning requirements.
Additionally, a plan to create two buildable lots out of Notre Dame Cemetery was revisited. Adjustments were made to accommodate minor encroachments by neighboring properties, resulting in the creation of two new parcels. The board endorsed these changes.
