Do you remember the Planning Board several years ago pushing through repeal of the "back lot" provision of the zoning bylaw? The provision allowed a lot with less than 150 feet of frontage if it was behind a lot that met the frontage requirement and if it met certain other requirements. The PB at first proposed changing the provision (by repealing the old one and then adopting the revised one) to one they touted as making it better but that in reality sneakily gutted it. So the PB first pushed through the repeal and then recommended voting against the new provision, on a promise that they'd come up with a revised one that would be better. They've had two years to come up with the new one. Where is it? Do you sense any mendacity here?
