TO: North Andover Planning Board
FROM: Julie Parrino, Town Planner
RE: Special Permit Site Plan Review Amendment,North Andover High School-
675 Chickering Road
DATE: January 13,2004
The applicant is requesting to amend the site plan special permit originally issued by the Planning Board
on May 14, 2001 for the construction of a 300,649 square foot high school building located within the
Residential-2 Zoning District.To date, the building and drainage structures are close to completion. The
amendment proposes changes to the northern and southern playfields.
Changes to the northern playfield involves the construction of a synthetic material and track field
complex in an area originally proposed for two soccer fields.Proposed is a permeable synthetic playing
field that will host field hockey and soccer,and on the outskirts a high jump area and three pole vault
areas are proposed. Also proposed is a storage building of approx.720 s.f.,bleachers for approx. 250
people, a scoreboard and a retaining wall.Fencing and walks have been reconfigured to address the
changes.
Proposed changes to the southern playing field include reconfiguration of the two originally proposed
soccer fields furthest to the west into one synthetic turf field to be utilized for football, soccer and
lacrosse. This field will be lighted and bleachers for approximately 1200 people, a press box,concession
stand,toilet and storage building are proposed to be constructed north of this playfield. Grading of the
two fields to the east have been revised to allow for potential future softball use.
In addition, the tennis courts are proposed to be repaved.
My review is as follows:
SITE PLAN REVIEW:
i. NORTH ARROW/LOCATION MAP: This has been provided.
ii. SURVEY OF LOT/PARCEL: This has been provided.
iii. NAME/DECRIPTION OF PROJECT: This has been provided.
iv. EASEMENTS/LEGAL CONDITIONS: Addressed under original filing.
V. TOPOGRAPHY: This has been provided.
vi. ZONING INFORMATION: Zoning information has been provided.
vii. STORMWATER DRAINAGE: Please see attached review performed by the Town's
consulting engineer. The project was subject to extensive review by the Conservation
Commission's consultant Lisa Eggleston. At this time, VHB has conducted a preliminary
review of the revised drainage, which is more complex than the original drainage review.
The review to date has been limited to the set up of the hydrologic model. Overall VHB
agrees the existing conditions model appears to be a good representative of existing
conditions and is in agreement that the overall system is designed conservatively.
Specific changes are highlighted in the review letter. The project will result in an
increase in volume but peak rates of discharge from the site have been decreased. The
design does allow for the maximum infiltration possible given site condition.
viii. BUILDING LOCATION: Two buildings are proposed under the amendment. One is a
storage building of 720 s.f. and the other is a press box/concession/toilet/storage building
totaling 3,615 (total) s.f. Buildings must be constructed to meet all applicable building
and zoning regulations
ix. BUILDING ELEVATION: Both buildings are proposed to a height of 20 feet.
X. LOCATION OF PARKINGIWALKWAYS: Walkways have been revised to
accommodate the proposed changes. Ten parking spaces have been eliminated to
accommodate the new press box. DiNisco submitted a letter to Robert Nicetta dated
October 28, 2003 advising him of the space reduction. The applicants stated the proposed
1200 seat bleachers take the place of the informal seating on the hillside of the original
plan and do not increase the total parking load on the site. The gym remains the
maximum "public use" parking load and events will not be scheduled concurrently with
the outdoor field use. The amendment will allow for the construction of a total of 645
spaces for the facility use. I have spoken with the Building Inspector who stated that
DiNisco may provide for an additional ten spaces up along the edge of the northfield.
This should be discussed. The Planning Board may wish to consider conditioning the
gym events and outdoor events not be scheduled on the same evening so as to prevent a
possible parking shortage.
A. LOCATION OF WETLANDS/NOTICE OF INTENT: The applicants have filed a
modification request with the Conservation Commission. The applicants were requested
to submit a wildlife habitat analysis to document if the proposed lighting would impact
the wetland resource areas.
xii. LOCATION OF WALLS/SIGNS: The amendment proposes a new versa-lok retaining
wall in the northern playfield. The wall is approximately 120 feet in length and is located
5' off the property line. Wall ranges 4 to 5 feet in height.
xiii. SIGNAGE: Two score boards, one in the northfield and one in the southfield are
proposed in addition to a wall sign for the new press box. I am not aware on any
restrictions associated with size and height of the scoreboards. The sign
specifications/drawings/details for the concession stand should be submitted for review.
A condition should be placed stating the sign must conform to Section 6 of the Zoning
regulations and must be approved by the Building Department.
xiv. LOCATION OF ROADWAYS/DRIVES: The layout of the emergency access drive at
the northern playfields (including Prescott curb cut) has been revised to accommodate the
changes to the northern playfields. The curb cut has been relocated approx. 20 feet to the
west of the previous location. The site drive at the parking lot south of the new school has
been revised to accommodate the proposed press box.
xv. OUTDOOR STORAGE/DISPLAY AREAS: There is no outdoor storage being
proposed under this amendment.
xvi. LANDSCAPING PLAN: The landscaping plan has been revised to accommodate the
proposed changes. Specific changes are not clear and details on the landscaping changes
should be submitted or displayed more clearly.
xvii. REFUSE AREAS: If additional refuse areas are required from the concession stand
they should be displayed on the plans. It does not appear any new areas (dumpsters) are
proposed or displayed on the plans.
xviii. LIGHTING FACILITIES: Field lighting will be provided for the new multipurpose
field at the southern playfields. Lighting on six poles is proposed. Locations, details and
level plans are shown on the submitted plans SKZ 1.5, SKZ- 1.20 and ZKA-1.20A. Four
poles are located in the vicinity of the press box and bleachers and 2 are located on the
outskirts of the football field. Poles range in height from 76' to 80' feet. Conditions
should be placed stating lighting can not shine into the McDonald's facility, traffic within
Route 125 or surrounding residential properties. A nighttime inspection by the Town
Planner should be conditioned prior to sign-offs.
xix. DRAINAGE SYSTEM: See above comments under Stormwater Management.
xx. TRAFFIC IMPACT STUDY: No additional traffic impact studies were conducted for
the amendment. The applicants state the proposed facilities will not increase the traffic
impacts from the original proposal. The approved gym holds a seating capacity of 3,200
people. This compares to the 250 people seating capacity in the northfield and the 1200
seating capacity in the southfield. The Board may want to restrict use of the gym and
playfields simultaneously to reduce traffic and parking impacts.
xxi. EROSION CONTROLS: All erosion controls should be replaced in the newly proposed
work areas.
xxii. COMMONWEALTH REVIEW: N/A
xxiii. UTILITIES: Revised utility locations have been shown on the plans.
xxiv. FISCAL IMPACT: Proposed amendments do not appear to generate additional fiscal
impact.
xxv. COMMUNITY IMPACT: Proposed amendments do not appear to generate any further
community impact.
ADDITIONAL ISSUES
VHB review is not complete and I anticipate additional comments to be submitted.

NAHS Athletic Complex - 11/25/03 Planning Board Meeting
Dear Heidi,
This email is to confirm my conversation today with Debbie Wilson of your office
regarding the postponement of the previously scheduled informal discussion of the
High School project.
As the Planning Board has asked us to postpone the previously scheduled informal
discussion of the High School project we request being put on the agenda for
discussion items at the extra Planning Board meeting that has been added on Tuesday
25 November 2003.
If we do need to make a formal submission to the Planning Board for the proposed
changes to the High School site plan, we need to make this submission by the 05
December 2003 deadline in order to not delay the anticipated construction schedule.
Waiting for this informal discussion later than the 25 November meeting would be
cutting it too close in order to make the submission.
Sincerely,
All

R&R 08/13/04 B49.2.2 Admin/Arts Windows (Postscript) - In a phone
conversation on 08/13/04, R&R advised DDP that
scissors arm operators will be adjusted so that
windows close at the small admin wing windows.
At the arts wing, A&A stated single arm operators
must be installed per sample. DDP agreed to this
approach.
DDP 03/30/04 B50. Gymnasium Switches - Greg Roberts requested that DDP
TE investigate substituting pushbutton switches for gym
lighting, curtain, and backboard counters. GR noted that the
key switches installed are all keyed differently and require a
good deal of time to operate individually. The pushbuttons
could be secured from unauthorized use by a surface
mounted locking cabinet. Also, GR requested that the gym
lighting only be operated by the center control point. DDP
and TE to review.
-- 08/10/04 B56. South Fields/Football Practice - Harry Harutunian (HH)
inquired whether the south fields will be ready for football
practice beginning 08/23/04. The field would be in use for
double sessions from 8:00 AM to 8:00 PM
Mondays-Saturdays. The first day of school is on 09/07/04.
NASD 08/10/04 B56.1 South Fields/Football Practice - JTC stated that
JTC- turf fields will be ready for use by 08/23/04.
However, JTC stated sitework will be ongoing
until the first of September, and the school
department and JTC would need to develop a
plan to get the students to and from the field
safely, while not disrrupting construction. It was
discussed that coaches could see that players
cross the site together. Of great concern are the
expected parents/spectators who could come at
any time; it was discussed that the south lot could
be closed to discourage spectators from
inadvertently entering the construction area.
NASD and JTC will further discuss logistics during
the next two weeks.
NASD 08/10/04 B56.2 South Field/Lighting - In response to NASD's
JTC question, JTC advised that the ballfield lighting
will be operational by 08/23/04. It was discussed
that the school department can control the lights
operation by limiting operating instructions to a
few key people.
OBSERVATION REPORT NO. 123 North Andover High School Page 3
-- 08/10/04 B57. Basketball Camp - HH advised that a basketball camp will
be operating in the gym over the next few days. It was
agreed that the south lot would be closed to all but
construction operations, and campers and staff would use
the north entry and lot. Moveable gates will close the south
parking lot off from the access road, and signs will direct
people to the north lot. NASD will advise the fire department
that the south lot will be closed off using the moveable
gates. Record item.
NASD 08/10/04 B58. Parking Spaces - NASD noted that the school would be
handing out spaces to students on 08/28/04-08/29/04, and
inquired as to the availability of the south lot beginning those
days. JTC advised that paving work will be underway right
up to the start of school. It was discussed that the school
should limit parking to the north lot (where staff are assigned
spaces) until the south lot is ready for use; the school will
make alternate plans for students who would ultimately park
in the south lot.
DDP 08/10/04 B58.1 Parking Space Numbering - It was discussed and
agreed that DDP will on a drawing number all
spaces (not including HP spaces). The
numbering will be done under a work order by

P. SITE WORK
JTC 09/30/03 P41. Art Plaza Pavement- DDP reviewed CRJA site visit report
of 09/26/03. JTC stated radius will be cut. The clerk
observed that the puddles noted disappeared in less than
an hour, and low spots are very shallow.
DDP 10/08/03 P41.1 Arts Plaza Pavement (Postscript) - CRJA
Clerk followed up, advising DDP that low spots would
be an icing concern, and requested that the
tolerances be checked per the paving spec (See
Spec 02500-3.01-19). DDP to advise clerk to
confirm.
JTC 03/16/04 P49. Catch Basins - SBNE noted that JTC has yet to install the
hoods on the catch basin structures as required.
NASD 04/20/04 P52. Commemorative Plantings - Paul Szymanski advised that
DDP the school will be planting some memorial trees, and is
looking into some way to incorporate future memorials in an
orderly, planned fashion. DDP and NASD will coordinate.
-- 04/27/04 P53. Athletic Fields - DDP, MBC, JTC, and Gale reviewed the
athletic field upgrade work, with the following noted.
DDP 04/27/04 P53.8 Scoreboards -JTC reiterated that their proposal
includes two scoreboards (one football, one track)
with conduits to a third "future" location (in
baseball field). DDP will confirm locations.
DDP 05/18/04 P53.8.1 Scoreboard - It was agreed that football
scoreboard will be relocated to the est end of the
football field, back-to-back with the "future"
baseball scoreboard. DDP will issue a field order
locating this scoreboard.
NASD: 07/20/04 P53.8.2 Track/Softball Scoreboard - It was discussed that
07/27/04 the track scoreboard could be fed from the
construction trailer service on Presscott, DDP will
consult with Thompson-Endineering to`provide
Paul Szymanski with the information needed to
obtain a permanent service from this location from
Mass Electric.
(07/27/04) Information forwarded to Paul
Szymanski by DDP on 07/26/04.
OBSERVATION REPORT NO. 123 North Andover High School Page 7
JTC 06/29/04 P56.3.3 Sand/Loam Mix Test- P&S will take samples of
07/20/04 stockpiled loam and will mix with samples of
08/10/04 Pitcherville Sand and will test for optimum
sand/loam/organic content.
(07/20/04) P&S test results forwarded to JTC.
JTC questioned apparent reversal in
recommended sand mix ratio. Follow up with P&S
needed to clarify.
(08/10/04) It was discussed whether the P&S
recommendation for organics and mixing
constitutes an extra to the contract. DDP agreed
that the "means and methods" are up to JTC,
noting the "final product" is what JTC is
responsible for. As for adding organics to the top
soil, DDP interprets this as a specified
requirement; JTC will review the specifications
language and respond.
-- 06/29/04 P56.3.4 Mixing Sand and Loam -JTC noted that Section
02900 specifies mixing sand and loam by
harrowing, and at this time this is JTC's intent.
Bob Pine stated that more satisfactory results will
be achieved far more easily by mixing with loader
buckets after the loam is screened. P&S will come
to the site to monitor JTC's mixing of the sand and
loam to establish a procedure and consistant
result.
JTC 06/29/04 P56.3.6 Drainage - JTC and DDP described how the field
CRJA sub grade for drainage as shown on the contract
drawings no longer reflects the final grades due to
changes made necessary by the athletic field
upgrades. CRJA agreed that adjustments to
J-drain and collector pipe layout would be
acceptable as long as "downhill" criteria is met.
CRJA will inspect subdrainage when completed,
.and before being covered with sand, to see that
this criteria is met.
-- 06/22/04 P64. Emergency Access -JTC questioned whether ambulance
08/10/04 access is possible to the football field, suggesting that the
stone dust paving behind the baseball backstop could be
used for access. DDP and Gale will review. Record item.
-- 08/10/04 P64.1 Emergency Access - DDP agreed that the stone
dust paving be utilized for emergency/service
access to the fields. To this end, NASD has
requested that a gate be added at the southeast
area of the turf field. DDP also stated that the
circular concrete curb be deleted in this area to
facilitate access.
JTC 06/29/04 P68.1 Leaning Trees - CRJA expained that they do not
Emanouil require trees to be guyed because studies have
shown that unguyed trees are stronger. However,
the spec does require trees to be plumbed if
required. JTC will advise Emanouil to reset the
trees.
OBSERVATION REPORT NO. 123 North Andover High School Page 8
-- 06/29/04 P69. Crabapple Trees - CRJA reviewed problems observed
with crabapple trees, noting that the trees planted were not
tagged by CRJA. In any case, die back has caused most
crabapples to no longer meet specifications and those must
be replaced. (Postscript: CRJA has flagged trees that must
be replaced). JTC will so advise Emanouil.
CRJA 07/30/04 P69.1 Crabapple Trees (Postscript) - Response from
Emanouil received by DDP and forwarded to
CRJA on 07/30/04. CRJA to respond.
Emanouil 06/29/04 P70.1 Lawns at Arts Wing -JTC agreed that Emanouil
would repair the bare spots in the lawn between
the arts classrooms and the driveway.
DDP 07/23/04 P72.3 Pavement Grades at Concession Stand
(Postscript): DDP faxed sketch of revised grading
to JTC on 07/23/04. DDP to follow up with Work
Order.
-- 07/27/04 P73. Football Goal Posts - JTC inquired as to desired width of
08/10/04 uprights (High School or NCAA dimensions). DDP will
confer with the athletic department. Record item.

Gale nearly 100% complete, with "G max"testing to be performed
by Field Turf and results submitted to Gale (through DDP).
The north field final grade will be ready for inspection by
Gale (to determine suitability for turf installation to begin)
within the next two days.
-- 08/10/04` P75. Miscellaneous Site Issues - The following issues were
discussed. Record item.
Gale 08/10/04 P75.1 Track Width - Gale will reconfirm the 32'-8"width
shown for JTC.
-- 08/10/04 P75.2 HP Seating - DDP requested that a five foot deep
flat paved area be created at the low wall gaps
east and west of the bleachers. Grade would be
blended to meet the paving edge. Record item.
NASD 08/10/04 P75.3 Gates - JTC requested that any changes in
JTC fencing and gates be forwarded as soon as
possible. (Postscript - DDP forwarded fence/gate
revisions to NASD and JTC on 08/13/04).

Subject: NAHS Commissioning
We will be holding off commissioning the FCU's,VAV's and Fin Tube that we
had planned for this week. I had a discussion with Mike Pramik at JCI and
learned that they are going to replace all the control valves with a new,
revised, improved model. He is discussing the logistics with Sagamore and
plans to have the work complete by the end of the month. I think our time
would be best spent doing some random sampling of the units after these new
valves are installed.
Greg and I are coordinating the smoke detector shut down sequence testing
and will execute based on Greg's schedule.
I'll be out from August 9, returning on the 23rd. Jason Peterson (X149)or
Deborah Demaso(X147)will be following NAHS while I'm out and should be
your contact points for any communication.
Thanks,
Bill

with the Condition 51 of the Order of Conditions. Due to the necessary locations,it was
suggested that this would be best done as one of the last items of site work. This will need to
be discussed with the Conservation Commission. In addition, it appears to be appropriate in
some areas that these same posts be used for"No Snow Disposal" signage to comply with

• 04/27/04—(Postscript)A meeting was held on Thursday 4/29/04 with Paul Szymanski
(NASD),John Cyr (DPW) and Fred King(SBNE) to review the preliminary Snow Disposal
Plan. Suggestions were made for additions and modifications to the Plan. SBNE will
incorporate the recommendations into the plan for further review.
A plan was also reviewed that shows the locations for permanent markers along the 25-foot
no disturbance buffer zone. The plan showed that 96 markers would be necessary to comply
with the Condition 51 of the Order of Conditions. Due to the necessary locations,it was
suggested that this would be best done as one of the last items of site work. This will need to
be discussed with the Conservation Commission. In addition, it appears to be appropriate in
some areas that these same posts be used for"No Snow Disposal"signage to comply with
Condition 52 of the OOC.
Also discussed were the installation of 35 Bird Boxes and the "non-invasive trail system"per
Conditions 35 and 37 of the OOC.
• 05/04/04—Postscript: Inspection by Arrow Environmental. The Items that needs to be
completed are as follows:
1 -Pre-construction requirements:
• Bird Boxes: This is a requirement for the Applicant to comply with prior to a
certificate of compliance.
• Snow Stockpiling Plan: A revised draft plan has been prepared for review..
(6/23/04)
• No Disturbance Zone markers: Not completed at this time. A plan has been
prepared showing the locations for the markers. 6/23/04
See progress from previous report above.
• 08/03/04—Regarding the Snow Management Plan and Permanent Wetland Marker Plan,
communication from Paul Szymanski has been received that the most recent draft plans are
acceptable. These now need to be forwarded to the Conservation Commission for formal
review.
• 08/10/04—See notes above.
• 08/17/04—See notes above.

Plan. Suggestions were made for additions and modifications to the Plan. SBNE will
incorporate the recommendations into the plan for further review.
A plan was also reviewed that shows the locations for permanent markers along the 25-foot
no disturbance buffer zone. The plan showed that 96 markers would be necessary to comply
with the Condition 51 of the Order of Conditions. Due to the necessary locations,it was
suggested that this would be best done as one of the last items of site work. This will need to
be discussed with the Conservation Commission. In addition, it appears to be appropriate in
some areas that these same posts be used for"No Snow Disposal" signage to comply with
Condition 52 of the OOC.
Also discussed were the installation of 35 Bird Boxes and the"non-invasive trail system"per
Conditions 35 and 37 of the OOC.
0 05/04/04—Postscript: Inspection by Arrow Environmental. The Items that needs to be
completed are as follows:

Plan. Suggestions were made for additions and modifications to the Plan. SBNE will
incorporate the recommendations into the plan for further review.
A plan was also reviewed that shows the locations for permanent markers along the 25-foot
no disturbance buffer zone. The plan showed that 96 markers would be necessary to comply
with the Condition 51 of the Order of Conditions. Due to the necessary locations, it was
suggested that this would be best done as one of the last items of site work. This will need to
be discussed with the Conservation Commission. In addition, it appears to be appropriate in
some areas that these same posts be used for"No Snow Disposal" signage to comply with
Condition 52 of the OOC.
Also discussed were the installation of 35 Bird Boxes and the "non-invasive trail system"per
Conditions 35 and 37 of the OOC.

any questions regarding the information contained in this report.
During this inspection,it was raining which allowed me to see how the site erosion controls were
functioning. Overall, the site has shown very little erosion and appears to be relatively stable.The
maintenance items from the previous report remain to be addressed.There were no construction
activities observed during this inspection. Site construction work is concentrated on the athletic
fields.The contractor has continued to spread topsoil material on the northern athletic fields'
track and anticipates that this work will be completed by the end of the week. Spreading of loam
and grading continues eof the southern athletiicsfield area has been hydro seeded.The
baseball field.The majority
drainage outfalls to Cochichewick Brook were clear.
