Ms. Monica Gregoire, Staff Planner Re: Request to Revise Insubstantial Change Document 247 Chickering Road Enterprise bank Dear Members of the North Andover Planning Board, Greenman-Pedersen, Inc. =GPI) on behalf of our client, Enterprise Bank, hereby requests a revision to the Insubstantial Change document that this Board approved on October 1, 2019. Specifically, Enterprise Bank would like the Board to waive the requirement for DOT approval prior to obtaining a building permit. Based on the Insubstantial Change that was approved,the existing building has been demolished and foundation work is scheduled to commence shortly. Once the foundation is complete Enterprise Bank would like to proceed with building construction plus, weather permitting,site and utility work with the exception of drainage construction, which will wait until the DOT permit is issued. The traffic engineer for this project, MDM Transportation Consultants, Inc., has been working closely with MassDOT and has now submitted the permit applications. MDM has informed us that the MassDOT review process typically takes two to three months, which lines up fine with the fact that at this point no work can be done in the State right-of-way until April 15, 2020 but creates a problem in terms of being able to move forward with building construction based on the current approval from the Planning Board. Included with this request is an updated Engineer's Certification from MDM offering more specific information regarding where we are in the DOT permit process. We thank you in advance for your consideration of this request. If you have any questions or need additional information, please feel free to contact me at 603-893-0720 extension 40 or by email to djordan@gpinet.com. Sincerely, Greenman-Pe ersen,Inc.

Michaud, P.E. of MDM Transportation Consultants, Inc., understands that Enterprise Bank is pursuing construction of a new bank branch on land located at 247 Chickering Road in North Andover, MA (the "Project"). This Engineers Certificate is issued to outline requirements and anticipated timelines for Non-Vehicular and Category I Vehicular Access Permits from MassDOT. The entire Project consists of demolition of the existing commercial building on the subject property and construction of a new 3,250 sf Enterprise Bank branch with dual drive-through lanes and approximately 21 surface parking spaces. The subject property borders Chickering Road (Route 125/133), a State Highway under the jurisdiction of the Massachusetts Department of Transportation(MassDOT). Access/egress to the Site is proposed to remain via two existing curb cuts along Chickering Road; the southern driveway will remain an enter-only driveway and the northern driveway will remain an exit-only driveway. These driveways will be modified for conformance with current MassDOT commercial driveways standards and for consistency with planned roadway improvements by MassDOT along the Chickering Road corridor. The undersigned hereby states as follows,based on its professional and personal knowledge and belief: I. The Project will require Access Permits under M.G.L. Ch. 81, Section 21, as amended, MassDOT regulations. Specifically, these include a Category I Vehicular Access Permit for proposed modification to existing driveways serving the subject property; a Non-Vehicular Access Permit for the purpose of constructing a water service connection and a sewer service connection to the subject property within the State Highway Layout; and a Drainage Access Permit for purpose of constructing a drainage connection within the State Highway Layout to MassDOT's proposed drainage system. 1 2. A Category I Vehicular Access Permit Application was filed with MassDOT on November 22, 2019 on behalf of Enterprise Bank. MassDOT has assigned #4- 2019-0543 to this permit. Under this Category I Vehicle Access Permit application, physical changes to the driveway intersections with Chickering Road are proposed that are substantially consistent with the Approved Site Plans for the subject property and with MassDOT's Chickering Road improvement project. MassDOT is fully informed of the Project as discussed in meetings held at District 4 office on March 25, 2019 and at a pre-construction meeting held at District 4 for the Chickering Road improvement project on. September 11, 2019, The Category I Vehicular Access Permit should issue in the normal course, which is anticipated to occur in approximately 90 days of the application. 3. A Non-Vehicular Access Permit Application was filed with MassDOT on November 22, 2019 on behalf of Enterprise Bank. MassDOT has assigned #4- 2019-0544 to this permit. Under this Non-Vehicle Access Permit application, the Site's drainage system is proposed to connect and discharge to the existing MassDOT drainage system in compliance with MassDOT's Standard Operating Procedure (S.O.P.) No. HMD-02-02-2-000 "Connection or Discharge to any MassDOT Drainage System". MassDOT is fully informed of the Project as discussed in meetings held at District 4 office on March 25, 2019, at a pre- construction meeting held at District 4 for the Chickering Road improvement project on September 11, 2019, and through email correspondence with District 4 staff and MassDOT's project consultant,Fuss&O'Neill,Inc. Design changes have been made since our initial discussions to address Fuss & O'Neill's concerns with the initial drainage design. We anticipate that sufficient evidence is provided in the Application to demonstrate that no practical alternative exists and that proposed storm water features for the Site result in a reduction in peak runoff rates relative to existing levels, increases on-site recharge rates from roof drains, improves on- site water quality, and is subject to an operation and management plan. The Non- Vehicular Access Permit should issue in the normal course, which is anticipated to occur in approximately 90 days of the application. 4. I know of no reason why the above described Category I Vehicular Access Permit would not be issued. I also know of no reason why the above described Non- Vehicular Access Permit would not be issued.

MDM Transportation Consultants,Tnc,has conducted a pre-filing consultation with MassDOT District 4 staff` on March 25, 2019 and September It, 2019 in preparation for a Category I Vehicular Access Permit ding, During this consultation, a detailed discussion of Permit requirements relative to the Category I Vehicular Access Permit ensued including compliance with MassDOT's Standard Operating Procedure(S.O.P)No.HMD-02-02-2-000"Connection or Discharge to any MassDOT Drainage System". Provisions under this S.O.P. cite the need for a Non-Vehicular Access Permit for purposes of connecting the Site to the MassDOT drainage system, and which serves as a prerequisite to issuance of a Category I Vehicular Access Permit, MassDOT S.O.P No. HMD-02-02-2-000 specihOally states "As defined in 720 CMR 13.00 and MassDOT's S.O.P.No. HMD-60-02-3- 000, any connection to or discharge to any MassDOT drainage system (in cases where it can be,shown that no practical alternative exists),requires the issuance of a Non-vehicular Access Permit." Upon review of the Site Plans and associated drainage mitigation summary prepared by GPI and dated August 16, 2019 (submitted herewith)and as discussed with MassDOT District 4 staff on September 11, 2019 we anticipate that sufficient evidence is provided in the Application to demonstrate that"no practical alternative exists"for this drainage connection. The GPI drainage mitigation summary indicates that storm water features for the Site result in areduction in peak runoff rates relative to existing levels,increases on-site recharge rates from roof drains,improves on-site water duality,and is subject to an operation and management plan, 4. MDM will concurrently file the requisite Non-Vehicular Access Permit Applications for the proposed drainage connection to MassDOT's Chickering Road system and proposed water/sewer connections and anticipates the Non-Vehicular and Category I Vehicular Access Permit will issue in the normal course, which is anticipated to occur within approximately 90 days of initial application.

The existing parcel of land Is 24,962-sf in size, fully developed with paved parking areas and currently occupied by the Bulger Animal Hospital, The site is bounded by Chickoring Road(Route 126)to the west,the 99's restaurant and parking lot to the north and east and wooded land and wetlands to the south. No stormwater controls currently exist onsite, all runoff drains as sheet and shallow concentrated flow to the Chickering Road closed drainage system. Enterprise Sank is proposing to construct a 3,260-sf single story bank building with drive-up services and a parking lot with 20 spaces. The redevelopment of this site will result In a decrease In Impervious cover,from 87.3% existing to 68.6% proposed. in accordance with both Town and State requirements, an onsite stormwater management system was designed to treat the stormwater runoff and mitigate the post-development peak rate and volume of runoff. A standard closed drainage system consisting of deep sump, hooded catch basins connecting to a First Defense hydrodynamic separator Is proposed within the northern portion of the site to collect runoff from the parking lot and drive-up lanes.This system is designed to capture and pretreat runoff prior to discharge Into the Chickering Road closed drainage system. Along the southern portion of the site,two Filterra tree box flltera are proposed to collect and treat the runoff from the remaining parking [at areas. In front of the building, an underground roof Ihflltratlon system consisting of arch chambers will provide groundwater recharge of the rooftop runoff. Prior to the design of the onsite stormwater system, test pits were performed to determine the depth to seasonal high water and soil conditions. Based on the results of the test pits along with the proposed site grades and available Space around the site,the only feasible location for groundwater recharge is in front of the building, Where the existing grade rises towards the back of the property,we cannot meet the groundwater separation required for stormwater Infiltration practices. A Stormwater Management Report was prepared (copy attached) and includes a pre-and post-development drainage analysis. The results of that analysis Indicate that for the 2, 10 and 100-year storms there will be a decrease In the peak rate of runoff going to the Chickering Road closed drainage system.

Site grades make discharge to the wooded area to the south of the site infeasible, plus, this is within close proximity to a welland, 'There is a closed drainage system within the 99 Restaurant parking lot however, a connection to that system was deemed infeasible. Representatives of the 99 expressed concerns to Enterprise Bank over the age oftheirsystem(approximately 25-yrs old),belief thatthere is no available additional capacity to handle additional runoff from the Enterprise Bank development, and the fact that the 99 parking lot was just paved for the first time In 25 years. In summary, we believe that based on the inability to connect to the 99 Restaurants drainage system, the limited capacity to provide onsite stormwater recharge,the significant improvement to the onsite drainage design through the BMP's that have been implemented, and the reduction in peak rate and volume of runoff to the Chickering Road drainage system, that all steps that could be taken, have been taken to miiigale the impact that the stormwater runoff wllf have on the MassDOT drainage system, Sincerely, Greenman-Pedersen,Inc.
