There are MAJOR differences between a bulk variance PB submission (simple side yard setback encroachment) and a full Site Plan approval where lots are being combined..... when the Town's checklist and engineer requires full drainage and stormwater design and calculations, tree identification (plans and on-site), full grading, etc, the fee can easily exceed $42,000.00.As an example, Im scheduled for a ZBA then PB (yes both in the NE), for the demolition of a 4500 sq. ft. house on an R-1 property to be replaced by a similar sized residence.

You could then tie a decision tree in to basically say something like .... if X happens at Y % then Z should follow.  

I would add that if there are large trees near the home, you may want to add a professional gutter cover like gutter helmet.

In future leases consider  providing  the boundaries to the rental property as being less then the full 18 acres so that notice is not required for what they are not "renting" especially if you are doing tree cutting etc.   

Guys, I have a news for you, we do carry brains too :) along with a lot of imaginary wealth that you guys think we grow out of trees.

I’ve seen your various posts over the last couple of months and must say: I think you’re falling victim to getting lost in the forest, for there are LOTS of tree details in your (impressively comprehensive) spreadsheets.

You will typically get 15-20 years out of a standard 3-tab style strip shingle depending on pitch of roof and exposure to the sun, trees etc...Long story short, for a flip you may want to replace it to remove the roof as a potential negotiating point for the future buyer in trying to beat you up on price.
