Purpose & Explanation
Thirty Acres Drive is a private lane to the west of South Main Street that provides access to 8 dwellings. The drive was established before the adoption of zoning by the Village of Hudson and is utilized by all the homes. An existing, 18-acre vacant parcel is present at the western terminus of the shared driveway easement. This pre-existing parcel is a legal nonconforming lot of record. Per the Land Development Code (LDC), one single-family dwelling is permitted on this parcel. Prior to permitting development, however, a code-compliant fire access road must be developed per Section 1207.13 of the LDC. The property owner at the terminus has proposed some minimal roadway improvements and a revised recording of the easement to comply with appropriate fire access drive requirements. The revised easement would authorize governmental entities and would expand the easement area at the current landscape island, where existing pavement does not properly align with the recorded easement dimensions. The city would not be a signatory of this easement but would be a beneficiary of such.
