. An inquiry was made from the new owner of 216 Cilleyville Road as to whether parcel 2 (tax map 21 lot 570,497) is a buildable lot. The board determined that it is a buildable lot; however, if they chose to subdivide the lot, it would be necessary to build a public (Class VI) road as there is not enough road frontage.. A possible buyer for 72 Main Street inquired whether the upstairs apartment was a legal apartment. It was determined that it is not a legal apartment.
