The Licciardello petition #016-2000 to the Zoning Board of Appeals was denied on: 10/16/2000 (copy
attached). This action was taken after five months of the petitioner's request for continued public hearings.
During this time of continued hearings, alternate construction was being performed that was not part of the
request for relief in the petition. The Licciardello family was ill advised on the legality of this construction,
which is in violation of the North Andover zoning bylaw.
The petitioner (Licciardello) requested Essex Superior Court review of the Zoning Board of Appeals denial,
per civil action No. 00-2023A, Lawyer (Attorney Peter G. Shaheen). Recently the petitioner's requested
that the Essex Superior Court dismiss this case without prejudice (copy attached).
Per a telephone conversation with Town Counsel (Attorney Thomas Urbelis) and Chairman Sullivan,
concluded that construction during the continued hearings by the Licciardello family is a North Andover
Building Department issue of zoning violation.
Would you please inform the Board of Appeals of the current status and future action of the Building
Department.
Thank you.

Thomas & Marilyn Licciardello,
99 Middlesex St.
Chairman Sullivan stated: "We visited the site at (99 Middlesex Street) approximately 3
weeks ago, I am personally not for congesting up that area any more than it presently is;
we've had that problem in that particular spot in the past".
Chairman Sullivan asked the Board members if they had any questions.
Chairman Sullivan stated: "I found that there was a platform put down approximately 6
to 8" above the ground and a hot tub had been placed on the platform, a big hot tub and it
was, well within the rear setback probably about 10' from the rear lot line, and they also
had a canopy over the top of the hot tub. There were structures there that were absolutely
in violation of our bylaw and it was done at the owner's risk, as they did not wait for the
ZBA to give them a variance, they took it upon themselves to do anything that they
wanted to do there with some modifications".
Chairman Sullivan stated: "I think that this is not proper what they have done".
Chairman Sullivan asked: "does the Board have other comments to make"?
Board member Vivenzio stated: "that during the course of this hearing that all of this.
work was basically done and completed and without either getting a permit or obtaining
in writing that no permit was necessary".
Board member Vivenzio stated: "I think that is improper".
Chairman Sullivan stated: "At the last meeting the Board would not allow the petitioner
to withdraw because he heard thru the grapevine (if you want to call it that) that the work
had already been done and that's when the Board agreed to make a site visit to find out
Transcription of tape Minutes of the Meeting of October 10, 2000
Page 2
TapedMinutes
what it may be and we did not allow a withdrawal at that time and we did find that all of
the things that they asked for with some modification was already there".
Chairman Sullivan stated: "I feel that the integrity of this Board is already questioned
and I truly believe that this is an embarrassment because the petitioner has come to us
with a variance in front of the Board and instead has done what they wanted to do with
some modifications. They originally wanted the tub completely enclosed, however, they
placed a canopy on top instead. I think there are violations of the bylaw and from the
ZBA perspective I think that the Board should be citing those violations and instructing
the Building Dept., and the Zoning Enforcement officer to have these things taken care
of.
Board member Soule stated: "that from my observation at the site it appeared to me that
what the petitioner asked from the Board to give them was not what I saw on the site.
Upon looking at that property it appears that they could have achieved what they wanted
without zoning violations, upon many instances petitioners have asked for relief and after
looking at the situation we find that zoning relief is actually minimized and I think that
could be the case. What I saw was disturbing, and this is an administrative body and as
an administrative body we don't have any enforcement authority, and I'm opposed to
what I saw. We are required to vote on the application that we have before us which is
what I choose to vote on. They can come back to this Board in some future time with
what they have, but what they have now is in total violation of the zoning in this
community.
The Board discussed if they previously voted to accept the withdrawal without prejudice.
Chairman Sullivan stated: "the Board voted to deny the request for the withdrawal
based on the condition that the Board make a site visit first".
Chairman Sullivan stated: " that based on what he heard thru the grape vine that's when
he decided to make a site review. At least 3 of us sitting here right now saw the same
thing and Chairman Sullivan stated: he can't justify any part of that himself'.
Upon a motion made by Raymond Vivenzio and 2nd by Walter F. Soule the Board voted
to deny the original variance request from the requirement of S7, P 7.3 for a proposed
addition and for a side setback and rear addition and existing garage setbacks, in order to
construct a Florida room with hot tub on a pre-existing structure, because no evidence of
hardship relative to circumstance relating to soil conditions, shape, or topography of land
or structure and especially affecting such land or structure but not affecting generally the
zoning district was ever introduced as described in Chapter 40A, S 10.4 of the zoning
bylaw, and that the applicant undertook the work to build the hot tub on said premises
while requesting a continuance from the Zoning Board of appeals, and that no building
permit was obtained from the Building Department, therefore, the structure is in violation
of the zoning bylaw and was erected without a building permit and without a
determination from the Building Inspector, 2nd by Walter F. Soule, voting in favor of the
denial: WJS/WFS/RV, abstained from voting John Pallone.

Chairman Sullivan stated: "that four members have voted to deny the petition. However,
Ellen McIntyre stated that she was present at the meeting and therefore wanted to cast a
vote in denial of the petition. Chairman Sullivan stated that this would now make the
vote a five -member vote instead of only a 4 -member vote. Ellen McIntyre voted to deny
the petition; therefore her name was added to the vote for a denial".
Chairman Sullivan stated: "he would like to make it clear that the structure is in total
violation and should be removed".
Mrs. Licciardello asked to speak to the Board. "Mrs. Licciardello stated: I didn't
understand why Ellen McIntyre could not have voted on the petition when previously
there were not 5 members present to vote. Mrs. Licciardello stated: I did have a hardship
and that it was brought into the record as my doctor submitted written documentation of
the hardship".
Mrs. Licciardello stated: "It is true that they did not build what was requested in the
application that of an addition, it is true, we did not build an addition we built instead a
hot tub on a platform or a landscape terrace which we were told many times by the
Building Inspector that we could do so, according to the bylaw in Town, and we asked
three times if we needed a building permit to do so and we were told we didn't because
we were not building an addition only a landscape terrace. We did nothing to anger the
Board and it was not our intention in any way at all, what we did was try to get what we
asked for in order to take care of my health problem and because we were told that we
were not going to get what we. asked for because the tension in the neighborhood would
prevent it, therefore, we asked permission to put in the hot tub on a landscaped terrace".
Mrs. Licciardello stated: "I wanted to understand how the voting members are allowed to
vote because I may institute a lawsuit".
Board member Vivenzio stated: "that the Building Inspector gave you building advise in
general because you were asking for building advice in general, but nothing specific was
ever submitted to him as to exactly what you were going to do, did you get something in
writing from him as to what was allowed or what was not allowed"?
Mrs. Licciardello. stated: "no, I did not get anything in writing".
Mrs. Licciardello stated: "I asked the Building Inspector what I could do in order not to
get a variance. We spoke with Mr. Nicetta and stated that although we were willing to go
ahead with the landscape terrace it's not exactly what we want, however, we were willing
to go ahead with it if it's all we could get. We placed the hot tub as close to the back
door as we could because it's a hardship to go out of the house across the back yard in the
snow to get to the hot tub".
Mrs. Licciardello stated: "we've done everything as we were told to do, we even went to
the office to obtain a building permit and zoning permit and we were told we didn't need
Transcription of tape Minutes of the Meeting of October 10, 2000
Page 4
TapedMinutes
either. If the Building Inspector said that we did need a building permit we would have
gladly gotten one. The contractor twice went to the Building Department and talked with
Mr. McGuire and was told that a building permit was not required. We did everything
that we thought was proper in order not hurt anybody or to upset a neighbor, or upset the
abutters, we did this because we wanted to have a hot tub enclosed, we couldn't have the
hot tub enclosed, we never intended to upset the Board or insult you in any way but I
hope you understand and I apologize".
Board member Soule stated: "Mrs. Licciardello, I'm not insulted at all, here's your
application, here's your drawing, if you understand the process that when you make an
application to the ZBA we take action on it, if we approve it, it's for what you submitted
and it has to be registered this is what we are supposed to be voting on, from my site visit
that isn't what you have built apparently, however, this Board only has the authority to
vote on this application, if you have a new "whatever" that's different from this then you
should make a new application to the Board for of relief. I'm not voting on what I saw
"over there", I hope you're not misunderstanding".
Mrs. Licciardello stated: "I understood that the Board is voting on what I asked for in the
application, and that's what I feel needs to be denied on, but what you're talking about
the conspiracy thing...I understand that you're. voting to deny what we asked for and
that's what I think needs to be denied on .... The Building Inspector, Mike McGuire, we
went to see him and he told us what we could do and he admits that, so I can't understand
why the Board is upset about this, and from now on I will get everything in writing".
Board member Vivenzio asked Robert Nicetta if there was any question in his mind that a
building permit was necessary for the structure that was built?
Robert Nicetta response is inaudible.
Chairman Sullivan stated: "that I would like Mrs. Licciardello to understand that the
Board is not angry with what she has done, we just know that it's in violation and it
should not have been done. We wish to vote and go on with the meeting and it looks as
though you now have to resolve the problem with the Building Department, we could
stay here all night and listen to the pros and cons of what has happened but that's not
going to change what we now have in front of us".
Mrs. Licciardello stated: "I understood".
Chairman Sullivan stated: " I do have reasons for the Building Inspector to speak up
because he thought that he was being put on the spot, but I think that now we need to
make a motion".
Upon a motion made by Raymond Vivenzio and 2nd by Walter F. Soule, the Board voted
to deny the original variance request from the requirement of S7, P 7.3 for a proposed
addition and for a side setback and rear addition and existing garage setbacks, in order to
construct a Florida room with hot tub on a pre-existing structure, because no evidence of

hardship relative to circumstance relating to soil conditions, shape, or topography of land
or structure and especially affecting such land or structure but not affecting generally the

bylaw, and that the applicant undertook the work to build the hot tub on said premises
while requesting a continuance from the Zoning Board of appeals, and that no building
permit was obtained from the Building Department, therefore, the structure is in violation
of the zoning bylaw and was erected without a building permit and without a
determination from the Building Inspector, 2nd by Walter F. Soule, voting:
WJS/WFS/RV/EM, abstained from voting John Pallone.
Please Note: Because the acoustics at the Senior Center are very poor any person(s)
wishing to be heard clearly, by the assembly need to step forward and approach the Board
in order for their comments to be picked up clearly on the microphone.

Local Building Inspector
Date: September 14, 2000
Re: Tom Licciardello
99 Middlesex St.
The following is my best recollection of the chain of events in regards to the above noted
address:
In mid or late March Mr. Licciardello came in and inquired about putting a 14 x 18 foot,
1 story addition on the rear of his dwelling. At that time I informed him that I will need a
certified plot plan in order to have him go before the Board of Appeals as his structure is
preexisting nonconforming due to side and rear setbacks. I received his plot plan `and
issued a denial for rear and side setbacks on the subject property on April 4, 2000. A
Zoning Board hearing was held on May 9* of 2000 and was continued for 1 month by
request from Kathryn M. Tannert Niang an abutter. She was in the process of obtaining a
certified plot plan of her property as she felt that the proposed addition would encroach
on her property. Several times during the interim while waiting for the hearing Mr.
Licciardello came into the office and inquired about a patio. I explained to him that patios
do not require a building permit as it is not considered a structure. Sometime after he .
came back in and asked about building a platform as a patio. At which time I explained to
him that if he was to sit a platform of approximately the same size as the hottub (+/-
I Ox 10 or l Oxl2 ) directly on the ground and had no roof or walls than I would consider it
a patio. I paid no attention to the matter after this time as I was under the impression that
he was looking down the road should his case be rejected by the board. I remember
talking with Kevin Murphy a local contractor some time after that about a platform /
patio and that was the last I heard about it until the inspection of 9/14/00. Mr.
Licciardello was in the office on 9/14/00 in the morning regarding the fence he installed
in his rear property and his correspondence with Ms. Niang and their ongoing dispute,
which I informed him that it was a civil matter between them. Mr Licciardello then asked
if I was aware of last nights meeting which I stated I was not, but was asked by you to
visit the site at 10:0 AM.

12. The Licciardello's own a certain parcel of property located 99 Middlesex Street in North
Andover, (hereinafter, the "Property"). Said Property is more particularly described in a
deed recorded at the Essex County Registry of Deeds at Book 1781 and Page 41.
13. The Property is located in the R-4 zoning district. The R-4 zoning district allows for
residential uses only.
14. On or about April of 2000 the Plaintiffs filed an application for relief from the zoning
ordinance with the ZBA. This application sought a variance from the requirements of
section 7 paragraph 7.3 table 2 of the zoning bylaws in order to allow the Plaintiffs to
construct an 18 foot by 14 foot "Florida Room" on the rear of their home. A copy of
Plaintiffs' application is attached hereto as Exhibit A.
15. On May 9, 2000, a hearing was held by the ZBA to consider the Plaintiffs' request. The
ZBA continued the hearing on the Plaintiff s petition to June 20, 2000 in order to conduct
a site visit.
16. Despite the ZBA's promise to conduct a site visit, in fact they did not conduct a site visit.
At the hearing on June 20, 2000, the ZBA continued the Plaintiff's hearing to July I Vh
because the Board did not have five members present who first heard Plaintiffs application.
The ZBA then continued the Plaintiff s hearing again on July 11"', August 8" and September
12' all for the same reason.
17. Finally on October 10, 2000, the ZBA, with only four of the original five members present,
voted to deny Plaintiff's application. A copy of the ZBA decision is attached hereto as
Exhibit B.
18. The ZBA's decision is arbitrary and capricious and exceeds their authority.
19. The ZBA's decision incorrectly states that the Plaintiffs' built a hot tub on their property
while requesting continuances from the ZBA. In fact, the Plaintiffs did not build a hot tub.
The decision further states that the hot tub was built without a building permit having been
obtained. In fact, no building permit is required.
20. The ZBA's decision states that the Plaintiffs' hot tub is a structure in violation of the zoning
by-law. In fact, the Plaintiffs' hot tub is not a structure and therefore not subject to the
zoning by-laws.
21. The ZBA failed to render its decision within 100 days of the Plaintiffs' filing of their
application and therefore, pursuant to G.L. chapter 40A §15, the Plaintiffs' application is
deemed granted.
PRAYER FOR RELIEF
Plaintiffs respectfully pray that the Honorable Court:
1. Vacate the decision of October 16, 2000 of the North Andover Zoning Board of Appeals;
2. Declare that the variance requested by the Plaintiffs is valid and in effect; and
3. Enter such other and further relief as may be just.
WHEREFORE, the Plaintiffs demand a jury trial.

• Design of foundations that will not fail
either by loss of bearing capacity or
excessive settlement if liquefaction occurs.
• Replacement or densification of
liquefaction -susceptible soils such that
liquefaction will not occur.
4. For sites underlain by saturated sands where
lateral sliding (slope instability) may occur,
studies by a registered design professional shall
be made to establish the safety against sliding
during an earthquake with a peak acceleration of
0.12 g and a frequency content similar to that
implied by the modal seismic design coefficient
set forth in 780 CMR 1612.5
5. For sites underlain by saturated silty sands and
inorganic non -plastic silts, studies shall be made
by a registered design professional to determine
the susceptibility to liquefaction of these soils.
1805.4 Vertical pressure: The computed vertical
pressure at any level beneath a foundation shall not
exceed the allowable bearing pressure for the
material at that level. Computation of the vertical
pressure in the bearing materials at any depth below
a foundation shall be made on the assumption that
the load is spread uniformly at an angle of 30° with
the vertical; but the area considered as supporting
the load shall not extend beyond the intersection of
30° planes of adjacent foundations.
1805.5 Settlement analysis: Whenever a structure
is to be supported by medium or soft clay (materials
of Class 10) or other materials which may be subject
to settlement or consolidation, the settlements of the
structure and of neighboring structures due to
consolidation shall be given careful consideration,
particularly if the subsurface material or the loading
is subject to significant variation. The code official
may require a settlement analysis to be made by a
registered design professional when the live and
dead loads of the structure, as specified in this
article, minus the weight of the excavated material,
induce a maximum stress greater than 300 pounds
per square foot at mid -depth of the underlying soft
soil layer.
Settlement analysis will be based on a
computation of the new increase in stress that will be
induced by the structure and realistically appraised
live loads, after deducting the weight of excavated
material under which the soil was fully consolidated.
The effects of fill loads within the building area or
fill and other loads adjacent to the building shall be
included in the settlement analysis. The appraisal of
the live loads may be based on surveys of actual live
loads of existing buildings with similar occupancy.
The soil compressibility shall be determined by a
registered design professional.
1805.6 Disturbance of bearing materials:
Whenever the bearing materials are disturbed from
any cause, for example, by the inward or upward
ANDARDS / , *;--o
`r
AND RETAINING WALLS
flow of water �rtd/c>lr by construction activities, the
extent of the o. �rbance shall be evaluated by a
registered design professional and appropriate
remedial measures satisfactory to the code official
shall be taken.
1805.7 Rock foundations: Where subsurface
explorations at the project site indicate variations or
doubtful characteristics in the structure of the rock
upon which it is proposed to construct foundations,
a sufficient number of borings shall be made to a
depth of not less than ten feet below the level of the
foundations to provide assurance of the soundness of
the foundation stratum and its bearing capacity.
Refer to Table 1804.3 for allowable bearing
pressures and special conditions.
The maximum presumptive loadbearing capacity
of Class I or Class 2 rock may be increased where
the surface is leveled or benched, provided that such
increased safe capacity is determined by load tests
on an area of not less than one square foot (0.093
mZ) in accordance with the provisions of 780 CMR
1803.0.
780 CMR 1806.0 DEP'T'H OF FOOTINGS
1806.1 Frost protection: All permanent supports of
buildings and structures larger than. 100 square feet
(9.3 in') in area or ten feet (3 m) in height shall
extend to a minimum of four feet (1.2 m) below
finished grade except when erected upon sound
bedrock or when protected from frost, or when the
foundation grade is established by a registered
design professional and as approved by the code
official. Spread footings of adequate size shall be
provided where necessary to distribute properly the
load within the allowable load bearing value of the
soil. Footings shall not bear on frozen soils.
1806.2 Isolated footings: Footings on granular soil
of Classes 7, 8 and 9 of Table 1804.3 and compacted
fill shall be so located that the line drawn between
the lower edges of adjoining footings shall not have
a steeper slope than 30° (0.52 rad) with the
horizontal unless the material supporting the higher
footing is braced or retained or otherwise laterally
supported in an approved manner or a greater slope
has been properly established by a registered design
professional.
1806.3 Depth of spread foundations: The bottom
surface of any footing resting on material of
Classes 5 through 10 of Table 1804.3, shall be at
least 18 inches (460 mm) below the lowest ground
surface or the top surface of a floor slab bearing
directly on the soil immediately adjacent to the
footing.
780 CMR 1807.0 FOOTING DESIGN
1807.1 Design loads: The loads to be used in
computing the pressure upon bearing materials
directly underlying foundations shall be the live and

Re: Response to letter from Kathryn Tannert Niang dated 5/4/2000
Dear Mr. Sullivan:
1) There is no uncertainty as to how the proposed structure would be
positioned. The proposed Florida Room will be constructed on the
existing structure. It will extend 14 ft. from the structure and be 18 ft.
wide. The closest point to the Tannert property line is 5 ft.
2) There should be no doubt that the property lines are accurate. The
position of the iron rod delineating the property line in question has
bee certified six times by two professional surveyors since August of
1997. The most recent was March 30, 2000 by Scott Giles. (see
attachment)
3) The replacement of the fence is not part of our request. We had
always presumed the fence to the rear of our properties was owned by
the Tannerts. Because the fence is old and in a state of disrepair, we
thought we were being neighborly by offering to replace the current
fence at our expense. Further, we made it clear that we would not
replace the fence until our project was completed (target date: end of
September), and with their approval of location. We even offered to
allow them to approve the style of fence. At no time did we ever deny
them these opportunities.
4) The position of the lot line has been an issue for the Tannerts since the
start of construction of the garage on the Munro's property over 18
months ago. Further, we strongly agreed with Kathryn Tannert on

months ago. Further, we strongly agreed with Kathryn Tannert on
March 20th that she should have a survey performed if she had
lingering questions. During that phone conversation we advised her
that we were applying for the May 9th meeting. On April 25th we
called Veronica Tannert to let her know that the newspaper
advertisement was in the Eagle Tribune announcing the May 9th
meeting. During that phone conversation Veronica said, "Kathy has
been so busy, she hasn't had time to find a surveyor yet."
We have been diligent in preparing all the information required, in a timely
fashion, for a fair hearing of our request. The time lines required by the
town are stringent to ensure due process. We believe the request for a
postponement is without merit.

Re: Plantar Fasciitis
Dear Mrs. Licciardello:
Having had the opportunity to evaluate you and review your medical history, this
confirms our conversation that warm soaks such as that received through a hot tub would
be medically beneficial for your plantar fasciitis condition. Although this is a chronic
and painful condition, warm soaks may help to alleviate some of the pain you are
experiencing. Notably, the specific treatment for plantar fasciitis as discussed in The
Principles of AmbulatorX Medicine by L. Randol Barker M.D. lists warm water soaks as
a primary treatment of this condition.
Should you have any questions or concerns, please feel free to contact me.
Thank you.

Re: Proposed building construction at 99 Middlesex Street and Zoning Board Meeting 5/9/00
Dear Mr. Sullivan:
As an abutter to the property of 99 Middlesex Street, I am writing on behalf of myself and my
mother, Veronica Tannert, as co-owners of 35 Milton Street, to request a continuance of one
month with respect to the review of the building plans and request for a variance by Tom and
Marilyn Licciardello. Our reasons are offered as follows:
1) We believe that the proposed construction of a "Florida Room" on the Licciardello property
potentially encroaches on our property lines. To this end, we are in the process of retaining
Alphonse Haley, R.L.S. of Middlesex Survey, Inc. in North Reading to do a survey, stake the
boundaries and provide an "as built" plan of our property. We wish to confirm our true property
lines and have a clear understanding of how this proposed structure will be positioned in relation
to our property.
2) We have reason to doubt that the property lines between 99 Middlesex Street and 35 Milton
Street are accurately marked and that we must verify the boundaries with our own survey (as
discussed above).
3) We have reason to doubt that all the information required for review has been presented to the
Board. It is my understanding that the Licciardello's would like to replace our backyard fence (at
their cost) and that this idea was proposed to my mother on the 20`h of March. The proposed new
fence would stand exactly where our fence is now on the property of 35 Milton Street. In a long
conversation on the morning of March 21,1 advised Mrs. Licciardello that I did not want the
fence removed and that my mother and I felt it necessary for our property to be surveyed in order
j
Mr. William Sullivan, page 2.
to verify that the proposed construction would not unreasonably encroach on our property line. It
is my understanding that the construction of the fence is not included in the Licciardello's
current building plan proposal. Further, Mr. Licciardello and his wife denied (in a phone
conversation last evening) any recollection of our detailed discussion in March of my concerns
about our property boundaries and my request that the fence not be removed (or a new one put
up) without a formal verification of these boundaries.
4) It has taken a great deal of time over the past month to identify and research local survey
firms, compare costs, services and schedules as well as to educate ourselves on key issues and
potential problems. As stated previously, we are now in the process of retaining a firm and will
be proceeding shortly.
I submit that it would be most helpful to proceed with a review of the Licciardello's request for a
variance based on the facts provided by a certified plot plan of our property and the full
consideration of this information by the abutters. This request is made with the hope of ensuring
that the proceedings will include all information that directly affects the 35 Milton Street
property.
Sincerely,
cc: Robert Nicetta, Building Commissioner
