Planning board approves 2‑lot Meriden Road subdivision with wetland delineation condition

The Planning Board approved the minor subdivision application of Russell and Christine Larry (PB2026‑27‑MIN) for a two‑lot split of property at 300 Meriden Road.

Staff advised the board that a revised plat had been submitted that addressed most comments but that the wetland delineation produced by Pond View Wetland Consultants, LLC (letter dated 07/25/2026) had not yet been shown on the plat. To avoid delay in the review process, staff recommended the board accept jurisdiction and include a condition requiring that the wetland delineation be placed on the recorded plat before the chair signs and the plat is recorded. The board unanimously voted to accept jurisdiction, grant requested waivers, and approve the subdivision with standard recording and impact‑fee conditions plus the wetland delineation requirement and other technical items (tax map/lot numbers, CAD submission and recording procedures).

The approval is subject to the applicants providing a revised plat incorporating the August wetland delineation, submitting deed drafts for the city to review, and recording the plat within two years. Staff also noted that impact fees will be calculated at building‑permit issuance under the city’s adopted schedule.
