The PLANNING BOARD held a regular monthly meeting on Monday evening, February 5,
1979 at 7:30 P.M. in the Town Office Meeting Room. The following members were present

PtrBLIC HEARING: FOREST ESTATES (Olympic Construction) - Atty. Reginald Marden, Andover,
represented the petitioner and informed the BOARD that the roadway would be called
"Lyons Way"; all but Lot A is surrounded by land of the Commonwealth of Mass; %his is
the best and only possible design from the aesthetic standpoint and proper utilization
of the land; spacious lots with a large amount of frontage. Mr. Monteiro stated that
the Subdivision Control Subcommittee viewed the site with Mr. Cyr and Mr. Gelinas and
that ~r. ~elinas verbally agreed that we would have some w~y of showing that the water
line would be connected; the street was in good shape and it looked good. Scott Giles
was present representing Gelinas' office.
Letters from Highway Surveyor dated Feb. 5, Bi:~ dated Jan 22 and Fire Chief's letter
were read and are on file.
There are no streams cutting through the subdivision, according to developer.
Letter from Con. Com. was read citing portions of 3 wetland areas within the subdivision.
No letter received from Ikl. of Health as yet.
?he Highway Surveyor emphasized that~all easements are to be deeded to the Town of
N. A. and the BOARD agreed. Mr. Cy~ went on to state that the over all situation of
Campbell Rd. is extremely poor and very narrow; going to upgrade the road to a paved
surface from Salem St. to Rte. 114 over the next 3years; talked togas Co. and warned
them that if they want to install gas in the area they should do it this year because
no way will it be done once the road is in. The BP~ is quite intent that over the
years they would like to con. neet the 12" main on Rte. 114 to the existing 12" main on
Salem St. and there is another portion of development coming up on the street which
would also involve road widening and water extension. He felt it crucial to take
ever~rthing into consideration so that the development is done in a manner that all is
taken care of. Mr. Cyr then asked A. Kalogianis if the Town could pick strips of land
for the betterment of the development and the people who live on Campbell Rd. Atty.
Marden told him that they would probably be willing to discuss a 15' strip of land
regarding this subdivision but it is a different story in regard to any other subdivi-
sion which may or may not be filed; it is short notice to discuss any long range plans
but the intent is there on the part of both parties to upgrade the road as much as
possible. Marden said he would be willing to discuss the issue including the extension
of the water line. A discussion took place with Mr. Tomaeelli, abutter, regarding his
proximity to the street which is proposed.
A motion was made by Mr. Monteiro to take the matter under advisement. Mrs. DiTore
seconded and the vote was unanimous.
