Re: 17 & 19 Eldridge Road, South Yarmouth
Dear Mr. Cooper:
This is to serve as a follow up to our phone conversation of July 26, 2019 and your letter of the same
day, concerning the proposal of merging of parcels 332 and 333, 17 and 19 Eldridge Road, shown on
Assessors Map 33. Each parcel contains 0.16 of an acre. Parcel 333 is developed with a single family
dwelling and parcel 332 is undeveloped.
Based on the information provided,both lots can be merged into one parcel containing 0.32 of an acre
square feet of land area. By doing so,this in effect,would decrease the non-conforming nature of the
developed parcel,in that the current minimum lot size requirement is 25,000 square feet. The official
method of expunging the lot line between the two parcels is prescribed pursuant to the provisions of
Mass. General Law Chapter 41, Section 81X. Such plan would need to be prepared by a Certified
Surveyor and recorded at the Barnstable County Registry of Deeds. Once merged via this plan,the two
parcels would be considered one parcel with setbacks and lot coverage determined by the perimeter lot
lines and land area.
Very truly,
James D. Brandolini,

Dear Mr. Brandolini,
Thank you for informing me about Town of Yarmouth building regulations
today by phone. As we discussed, my wife Lynne and I are interested in
purchasing 2 lots in South Yarmouth and plannin• renovation and possible
additions to the home already present. h
inlOstkooriiiiesread 1 ,
These properties are not yet listed for sale, but we have talked with a family
member of the current owners, who indicated that they plan to offer the 2
properties for sale within a year.
Our intention would be to asiiiiiiMilimmaisimideurimingesiet4 and
sommi'implisme, also making use of the currently unimproved lot for
home expansion, driveway construction, and/or addition of a garage and storage
shed. We do not want to construct a separate house on the unimproved lot at 19
Eldridge.
After our discussion today, I believe that the Town of Yarmouth would
allow us to combine these 2 lots and undertake these improvements. I
understand that there are additional regulations regarding setbacks from property
lines, home size, Health Dept. requirements, etc., that must also be satisfied.
Please reply by letter at your convenience, and let me know whether I have
understood our discussion correctly. Thanks again for being so helpful.
Sincerely,
Phone: (804) 794-8128 e-mail: 2coopers@comcast.net
