Overview: During a recent meeting, the Dighton Board of Selectmen discussed and approved a special request concerning a property initially developed as a five-lot subdivision. The board approved the request to acknowledge the property as a single-family house lot, eliminating the need for additional soil evaluations under current regulations. This decision was made after reviewing the property’s existing 10 valid perk tests and 10 soil evaluations, which suffice for the current requirements of two perk tests and four soil evaluations for a single-family house.
