O'Neill of Quaker Roed received approval of New Castle Zoning Board of Appeals last Wed nesday to divide their Quaker Road property into tw o parcels'. The board had adjourned the hearing from its November meet ing at which i t pointed out that the two adjoining parcels of more than an acre each are held in single ownership. Each i s a long narrow lot with insufficient road frontage to comply with zoning restrictions in a one-acre-zomed area. Although trie area was up- zoned after acquisition of both parcels by the O'Neills, the board appeared to feel the two lots should not b e divided. In a similar case on Quaker Road division of the property had been permitted because the two parcels were in separate ownership. Last Wednesday, however. Board , Chairman Edward T Pierce said, \There - are enough elements here of the unique to make this a bor derline case.\ These elements were all in favor of the owners, he said. Since a denial would constitute hardship, the board decided, the property would b e treated as if It were \i n single and separate own ership.\ THE TOWNSMAN, CHAPPAQUA SUN editions of the PATENT TRADER.
