The two lots were formerly addressed as 756 (Lot 17) and 758 (Lot 16). Combined, they are addressed as 758. The following is an excerpt from an email to Matt Juvrud of Wooddale Builders in December 2013 regarding Lot 17. It references a series of overlay sheets which are attached as "Buildability Diagrams": 756 Bridgewater (Lot 17, Block 1,4th Add, shown on some views as Lot 21): 1) The lot is functionally 40' wide. The house proposed is 38'wide. This leaves a 2' gap between house and south lot line. 2) That 2' gap is supposed to be planted and maintained as wetland buffer.The house can't be widened to 40'. 3) The SW corner of the lot has an area of standard 25' wetland buffer as depicted in Sheet 2. That area of the lot can't be built on. It has a detrimental effect on the driveway, which is tapered to avoid the buffer as well as meet the 26' city wetland setback. 4) South of the house,the City setback remains at 26' but a setback encroachment was allowed along the east half of the south wall of the house, per Sheet 3. 5) The area south of the south wall of the house but north of the standard 16'-25' MCWD buffer is an area of replacement buffer. This is depicted on the Buildability& Landscaping attachment as extending to the wall of the house, and cannot be built on; functionally it means the south 2' of lot 17 can't be built on. 6) The MCWD buffer at 16' is measured from the replacement wetland as shown on Sheet 5. 7) The sum of the limitations on this lot leaves almost no flexibility, and yields what might become an awkward driveway abutting a rock wall that drops off at the edge of the driveway. And not much room to extend the house eastward. Based on the above, Wooddale chose to combine the two lots. To summarize the setback and other parameters for the combined lot, I would offer this: 1. There are no lot line setback requirements as such for any of the Stonebay individual lots. Absent other limitations such as wetland buffers, etc., the individual pads in the Stonebay development can be fully developed with no hardcover or structural coverage percentage limitations. 2. The allowable encroachments outside the individual lot boundaries are listed in the development covenants, Item 5.10, page 15 (attached). �
