Statement of Use
This application is for the resubdivision of the 28.06 acre property located at 97 Spithead
Road in Waterford, Connecticut. This is a resubdivision of Lot #5 of the Nutmeg Estates
Subdivision prepared for Peter Lampasona and approved by the Waterford Planning and
Zoning Commission on 1/29/1990.
The property owner, Glenn Fergione, wishes to subdivide the property into 2 additional
building lots. It is his intent to gift each one of the lots to 2 of his dear friends. The 2 new lots
will be 2.67 acres each.
Mr. Fergione will maintain ownership of the remaining 18.0 acre property which contains his
primary residence, barn and farm. The remaining 18-acres is encumbered by a 415’ wide
Eversource transmission easement and is predominantly inland wetlands.
There is also a disputed southerly boundary with land of Marjorie L. Daly of 81 Spithead
Road. Mr. Fergione intends to quit-claim this 4.73-acre portion of the property to Ms. Daly to
resolve any title ambiguities.
No open space is proposed.
