Notice of Decision ZBA Halsted_Croto 04.04.18

NOTICE OF DECISION
BRADFORD ZONING BOARD OF ADJUSTMENT

Ref. Public Hearing Notice: Case # 2017-AD-001

The Appeal by David and Michele Halsted of an Administrative Decision by the Planning Board, classifying Erik Croto’s ammunition manufacturing business at 26 Fortune Road, Tax Map 4 Lot 12, as a Home Business according to the Bradford Zoning Ordinance, has not been granted for the following reasons:

• The ZBA finds that the Planning Board has no authority to determine compliance with the Home Business provisions of the Bradford Zoning Ordinance, therefore the Home Business Compliance Form, though signed by the Planning Board, does not constitute an administrative decision.

• The Home Business Compliance Form is not an application for approval of a home business; it is a voluntary aid to help landowners determine whether a proposed use meets the requirements of a Home Business under the Zoning Ordinance.

• The ZBA finds no administrative decision to appeal in this case.

Date of Decision: 4/4/2018

Brooks McCandlish
Chair, Bradford Zoning Board of Adjustment
