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 Board 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 parcels are located at 0 Pavilion Avenue designated as Lots No. 3363, 3366, 3644, & 3814 on Assessor’s Plat No. 7. The owner and applicant are AA&E Properties, LLC, 688 Prairie Avenue, Providence, RI 02905. The existing parcels contain 26,474 +/- square feet.  The parcel is zoned B-1 (Single- & Two-Family Residential).

The proposed plan seeks to reconfigure the existing four (4) vacant lots into two (2) new flagged shaped lots to construct a two-family dwelling on each lot. The project will be serviced by public water and sewer.

The proposed minor subdivision is a use allowed by-right within the Cranston Zoning Ordinance, subject to the zoning relief sought and is consistent with the goals and policies of the Cranston Comprehensive Plan’s Future Land Use Map (FLUM).

The full Site Plan, Staff Report, and additional materials will be available on the City’s webpage and can be found on the City’s webpage at https://www.cranstonri.gov/departments/planning/.
