On January 5, 2016 upon a motion made by L. Rudnicki and seconded by P. Boynton to GRANT a
Watershed Special Permit for the construction of a 22' x 23'single story addition to the side of the
dwelling, demolition of an existing deck, and addition of a new deck within the 250' Non-Disturbance
Zone of the Watershed Protection District, under the requirements of Section 4.136 & 10.3 of the North
Andover Zoning Bylaw. This Special Permit was requested by Thomas and Nicole Friel, 254 Great Pond
Road, North Andover, MA 01845 on November 13, 2015. The applicant submitted a complete
application, which was noticed and reviewed in accordance with Section 10.52 of the Town of North
Andover Zoning Bylaw and MGL Chapter 40A, Section 9. The motion to approve was subject to the
FINDINGS OF FACTS and SPECIAL CONDITIONS set forth in this decision.
The Planning Board vote was unanimous. A special permit issued by the special permit granting
authority requires a vote of at least four members of a five-member board.
The applicant is hereby notified that should the applicant disagree with this decision, the applicant has the
right, under MGL Chapter 40A, Section 17, to appeal to this decision within twenty days after the date this
decision has been filed with the Town Clerk.
In accordance with 4.136 the Planning Board makes the finding that the intent of the Bylaw, as well as its
specific criteria are met. This decision specifically stated by the Planning Board makes the following
FINDINGS OF FACT:
1) That as a result of the proposed construction in conjunction with other uses nearby,there will not be any
significant degradation of the quality or quantity of water in or entering Lake Cochichewick. The
Planning Board bases this fording on the following facts:
a) The construction has been reviewed by Town Staff and the Town's consulting engineer, Eggleston
Environmental, and with the application of the erosion control measures and modifications to the
proposed deck location, drainage and stormwater management designs,the consultant concluded that
there will not be significant degradation to the quality or quantity of water in or entering Lake
Cochichewick. The footprint of the new addition is diminutive and the layout of the proposed
deck was reconfigured to ensure there was no encroachment into the Conservation Zone. The site
drainage system and storm water management design are designed in accordance with the Town
Bylaw requirements and Best Engineering and Management Practices. The plan has been
reviewed by the outside consulting engineer, Lisa Eggleston, as evidenced by a letter from L.
Eggleston dated December 8, 2015 and email dated December 24, 2015 as well as a letter from
Sullivan Engineering Group dated December 22, 2015. Further, adequate safeguards have been
provided to mitigate pollutants from entering Lake Cochichewick through the
installation/implementation of the following Best Management Practices relative to a single-
family dwelling:
i) The new addition will create 506 sq. ft. of new impervious area. All of the roof runoff will be
routed to a 500 gallon drywell.
ii) No new lawn area is being proposed and there will be no tree-cutting required for
construction.

District;
