In accordance with the provisions of RIGL § 45-23-50.1 and §45-24-46.4 (Unified Development Plan Review), effective January 1, 2024, the City Plan Commission will consider and vote upon any requested zoning relief in lieu of the Zoning Bord of Review for subdivisions and land development projects.

The Proposal requires relief from provisions of the Zoning Ordinance including Chapter 17, 20.120 – Schedule of Intensity Regulation relating to minimum frontage requirements.

The subject parcel is located at 337 East Street, further identified as AP 15, Lots 636, 1643 & 1661.  The applicant is Ronn David of 30 Woodland Avenue, Cranston, RI 02920. The property owners are Michael Boscia and Dawn Boscia of 423 Natick Avenue, Cranston, RI 02921. The property is in an A-8 residential zone and contains approximately 58,053 +/- square feet.

The applicant seeks the existing three (3) lots to be subdivided into five (5) lots, as a minor subdivision of land under the Unified Development Review regulations. The subdivision will require the Planning Commission to grant a dimensional variance for width and street frontage of each lot that will greatly exceed the minimum lot size in the A-8 zone under the Unified Development Review process.

All staff reports, recommendations, and supporting materials on this application will be posted on the Planning Department’s webpage at https://www.cranstonri.com/departments/planning/

and will be accessible by following the link entitled “January 7, 2025 Plan Commission”.  The materials will be posted approximately 4 days before the meeting.
