RE: Selective removal of 8 trees and pruning of additional trees located within the Buffer Zone
to Bordering Vegetated Wetland at 1337 Salem Street.
This is a follow up letter pertaining to your request to remove several trees and prune additional
trees which are damaged and/or hanging over the house and/or driveway at 1337 Salem Street. It
was determined that some of the trees are located within the 25' No-Disturbance Zone pursuant to
the North Andover Wetlands Protection Bylaw (C. 178 of the Code of North Andover). Removal of
vegetation, including pruning and cutting, is prohibited within the No-Disturbance Zone except in
rare circumstances, such as safety. The trees permitted for removal lean severely towards and/or
overhang the house posing a safety hazard. The trees to be removed were identified during a site
visit by the Conservation Department on November 9, 2015. The trees which are permitted to be
removed are identified in the attached photos. Dead limbs that overhang the house or yard may be
pruned. Concerns about additional trees posing a safety hazard must be submitted in writing to the
Conservation Department and may require a filing/application with the Conservation Commission.
*Determination of property ownership is the responsibility of the property owner.
Due to the potential danger imposed by the trees, the Conservation Department will permit their
removal or pruning to prevent possible injury or property damage. These cutting activities shall be
limited to the eight (8) trees identified and shown in the attached photographs.
The approved cutting will be subject to the following conditions:
❖ Prior to cutting activities the trees permitted to be removed by this letter shall be clearly marked
and ribbon on trees not approved for removal shall be removed and the Conservation Department
shall be contacted to conduct a pre-cutting inspection.
❖ No machinery shall enter the 25' No Disturbance Zone.
❖ No work shall occur in resource areas.
❖ All tree limbs, brush, and other debris materials shall be taken off site and disposed of properly.

❖ Stumps of the trees shall not be removed and shall be left in place. Stumps may be ground down
or cut flush with the landscape.
❖ Care shall be taken to prevent damage to surrounding trees during removal of the approved trees.
❖ Upon completion of the tree removal, all disturbed areas shall be properly stabilized.
❖ The applicant shall notify this department immediately following completion of work for a final
site inspection.
•3 Areas within 100-feet of wetland resource areas shall remain in a natural state and no further
vegetation shall be removed without the prior approval of the Conservation
Department/Commission.
❖ This permit shall expire six months from the date of issue.
Please do not hesitate to contact me should you have any further questions or concerns in this regard.
Sincerely,
NORTH ANDOVER CONSERVATION COMMISSION
