[Amended 7-2-1997]
Criteria for determining whether or not the
division of a parcel constitutes a subdivision, and are thereby subject
to the Town of Wilton Subdivision Regulations herein, shall be as
follows:
A. Number of parcels in a residential subdivision. If,
after the original parcel(s) is subdivided, three or more separate
parcels exist, then said resulting parcels would be considered a subdivision.
B. Number of parcels in a commercial/industrial subdivision.
If, after the original parcel(s) is subdivided, two or more separate
parcels exist, then said resulting parcels would be considered a subdivision.
C. The creation of a third distinct resulting parcel
within any consecutive three-year period shall, at that time, constitute
a subdivision, and all of the provisions of the Subdivision Regulations
herein shall automatically apply to all such resulting parcels thereof,
including the first two parcels.
D. Landlocked resulting parcels. Any parcel that does
not have frontage on a Town, county or state road shall be subject
to subdivision review.
E. Parcels subject to the Subdivision Regulations are
as follows:
(3) Unrecorded parcels not shown on the Wilton Tax Map.
One owner or group of persons acting in concert
as part of a common scheme or plan who own the original parcel(s)
in question individually or collectively shall be subject to subdivision
regulations.
All new parcels created in the Town of Wilton,
whether by subdivision or other means, shall meet all requirements
of area, setbacks and frontage of the Zoning Ordinance. Except when existing parcels or portions of existing parcels
are combined and existing structures do not currently meet the setback
requirements, the preexisting nonconforming status of said setbacks
shall remain on the new parcel.
When any subdivision of land is proposed to
be made within the Town and before any contract for the sale of or
any offer to sell such subdivided land or any part thereof is made
and before any construction is begun and before any building permit
shall be granted, the owner shall submit his subdivision for review
by the Planning Board.
