Article 9 To see if the Town will vote to amend the Mashpee Zoning By-'law as follows: Amend Subsection 174-45.1.1 by amending its second sentence to read "However, no lot may be created which does not meet the minimum lot area and frontage requirements of the zoning district unless said lot is serviced by a public wastewater treatment plant or by a private wastewater treatment facility which is approved by the Planning Board to service said lots, and to which all such proposed lots may be legally connected." Or take any other action relating thereto. Submitted by Planning Board Explanation: The Commercial Center zoning by-law allows the Planning Board to approve lots in the C-I zoning district which do not meet the minimum lot area and frontage requirements of the district, provided that the lots are to be served by a public wastewater treatment plant. This article would give the Board the authority to allow such undersized lots to be served by a private wastewater treatment facility, under terms set in the project's Special Permit, as public sewers are not currently available. The Board of Selectmen recommends approval by a vote of 5-0. The Finance Committee recommends approval by a vote of 6-0, one absent. The Planning Board at a meeting held October 6, 20,10, recommends approval of this, article by a 4-1 vote. 7
