Page 3 of 14 The Historical Commission, hoping to preserve the century-old Bradstreet School, voted in September to invoke the demolition delay bylaw, which saved the building from being leveled for a year. Town Manager Andrew Maylor said last night he will ask the Historical Commission to reconsider its vote on the delay. Now that the selectmen have approved and signed purchase and sale and land development agreements with Hearthstone, the former school's fate is sealed, Maylor said. The agreements are legally binding and the school will be demolished, he said. Another firm, Oakgrove Residential Developers, submitted a plan to the selectmen last May that would have preserved Bradstreet School, which was closed in 2005. The selectmen designated that plan as their second choice. Now that the board has approved the Hearthstone plan, "that alternative no longer exists," Maylor pointed out. William Perkins, president of Hearthstone, was not present at last night's selectmen's meeting, but he told The Eagle-Tribune last week the project is "great news for the downtown." The apartments, he said, will be energy-efficient and he is confident he'll be able to locate a couple of restaurants on the site. "We made a choice," said Selectman Tracy Watson, a longtime advocate for redeveloping the Bradstreet School property. Watson and other officials have noted that when the site is developed, the town will receive real estate taxes— instead of having to pay an estimated $40,000 a year to maintain a vacant building.

"The discussions are ongoing," Maylor said Tuesday, adding he expects the negotiations to conclude "within 30 days." After hearing proposals from several firms, the selectmen voted in May to designate Hearthstone as the preferred developer for the 70 Main St. property. Hearthstone's plan calls for demolishing the school and erecting a residential building along Saunders Street and a commercial structure facing Main Street. Three men are collaborating in this proposal: William Perkins, head of Hearthstone; Joseph LaGrasse, an architect who has served on the North Andover Planning Board and Zoning Board of Appeals; and Mark Yanowitz, who designed the renovations for 54-56 and 44-50 Main St. The proposal includes constructing a 9,500-square-foot uare- foot buildin facing Main Street that would have stores and offices but no homes. The structure facing Saunders Street would have six townhouses and six flats. Bradstreet School is slightly more than 100 years old and was closed in 2005 after serving several generations of North Andover students, including Selectman Donald Stewart. He said he voted to support the Hearthstone plan after determining that older people who had attended the school did not have strong feelings about preserving it. The Historical Commission, however, did have such feelings and voted in September to invoke the town's demolition delay bylaw, which gave the building a 1-year stay of execution. Maylor said at that time he did not anticipate the delay would affect Hearthstone's plan. The 2012 annual Town Meeting voted to authorize the selectmen to sell Bradstreet School. Hearthstone has offered to pay $300,000 for the property in addition to redeveloping it. Stewart said he would like to see the new businesses and additional real estate taxes that will result if Hearthstone's plan becomes reality. The town now pays about $40,000 per year to maintain a vacant building, local officials have said. http://www.eagletribune.com/local/x651175780/Maylor-Talks-with-develop... 1/16/2014 Maylor: Talks with developer likely to end soon » Merrimack Valley » Eag...Page 3 of 14 0 comments < o 0 Start the discussion... r SIGN IN WITH 0 0 0 Siqn up for Disqus OR REGISTER WITH DISQUS Sisclus is a conversation network Disqus.neve r moderates.or censors.:The rules on wommunity are its own our email is safe with us.

Page 4 of 13 demolishing the school, which is slightly more than a century old, and constructing a building with storefronts and offices facing Main Street and a residential structure along Saunders Street. The 2012 annual Town Meeting voted unanimously to authorize selectmen to sell the vacant school. The board is eager to promote commerce in the downtown, so it sent out a request for proposals for development plans. "Our mission is to preserve and protect historic buildings," Kathleen Szyska, chairwoman of the Historical Commission, said. She pointed out that of the schools built in North Andover in the early 1900s, Bradstreet is the only one left. i "I can see the selectmen's point," said James Wefers, who is newly appointed to the commission. Fellow commission member Jan Williams said the commission must ask, "Is this building historically significant?"Like Szyska, she said it is the commission's duty to preserve the town's historic assets. Szyska said the commission has been very reasonable in the use of its demolition delay authority. She could recall only one other time that the board delayed a demolition. That involved a historic house on Greene Street, she said. "We take this very seriously," she said. Szyska noted that the selectmen's second choice for a developer, the Oakgrove development company, submitted a plan that would have saved Bradstreet School and converted it to affordable homes. "We thought this was a win-win for everyone," she said. School Committee member Stanley Limpert, who often attends the meetings of other boards, said the selectmen"made it clear"they favor the Hearthstone plan. The demolition delay hearing will be held in the selectmen's meeting room on the second floor of Town Hall. Rosemary Connelly Smedile, chairwoman of the Board of Selectmen, who backed the Oakgrove plan, said if the commission delays the demolition of Bradstreet School and Hearthstone does not want to wait,the project could face a hurdle.
