Re: Brooks School Library -- revised site plan
Dear Mr. Amsler,
Under Section 8 . 36 of the Town of North Andover Zoning Bylaw,
any revisions to a development that has secured site plan review
approval must be submitted and reviewed by the Town Planner. If
the revisions concern, among other things, a change of location and
layout of parking areas, the revisions may be done without further
review by the Planning Board upon the approval of the Town Planner.
I have reviewed the revised site plans for the library parking
lot and the accompanying documentation. This revised plan
relocates 14 parking spaces from an area north of the. Library to a
separate parking area north of Maple Drive. This relocation
improves the aesthetics of the library keeping the rural character
of the campus, and does not affect the drainage scheme as
originally presented.
Therefore, the relocation of the parking lot as shown on the
plan referenced below is approved.

Re: Brooks Library- Site Plan Review Process
Proposed Minor Change to Parking Layout
Dear Ms. Bradley:
Based on the recent conversation we had relative to the above subject, I submit for your
review and approval, the documents illustrating the proposed changes.
Proposal: To relocate 14 parking spaces north of Library as presented at the hearing on
6/29/93 to a separate, small parking area north of Maple Drive. This would leave green
space north of the library, and the view from Maple Drive to the new library would not
be blocked by parked cars.
Areas: The new proposal is similar in area for paved surfaces (net increase ± 1,600 SF).
Drainage: As proposed before, all drainage of roads and parking surfaces in this area
are collected by catch basins #CBS, CB6, CB7 and directed via 12" drainage pipes toward
the retention area northeast of Maple Drive.
Number of Parking Spaces Affected: The new proposal shows 14 parking spaces
relocated to the new, separated lot and, at the request of the Building Inspector, adds
one space for the handicapped closer to the buildings (next to library entrance access
walk).
Since this proposed change merely shifts parking spaces without changing other design
parameters, we assume you can give your approval without the need of further public
hearings. For your convenience, we are enclosing relevant documents that were
originally submitted, or were generated at the site plan review hearing back on June 29,
1993.
We appreciate your-written response and approval to our requests.

Special Conditions: paragraph 10.
It is our intention to have al

vents will occur on the roofs where they are technically required. We cannot hide or
screen them in all cases.

Re: Brooks School Library/Office - Site Plan Review
Dear Mr. Amsler,
Thank you for appearing before the Planning Board last night
and presenting the plans for the new library/ office on the
Brooks campus. At the meeting, the Board voted to close the
public hearing and will render a decision at its next regularly
scheduled meeting July 20, 1993 .
In the interim, the Board members will individually view the
site and give any additional comments regarding the project to
the Planning Staff.
I will need to meet with either with you or possibly Steve
Chapman to go over the specific plans for work within the
watershed protection district buffer zones. After this
discussion takes place, I will then be able to determine whether
or not a special permit will be required for this work.
The Board agreed that you could start to prepare the site
for the construction prior to final site plan review approval .
If you have any questions please do not hesitate to call me
at (508) 682-6483 ext. 24 .
sincerely,

Watershed Protection District
Dear Mr. Chapman,
Enclosed is a copy of our Watershed Protection District Bylaw. In
response to your letter and enclosure of the "Water Plan" , I would
like to point out to you the types of activities that require a
special permit from the Planning Board for work within the
Watershed Protection District buffer zones.
In the Non-Discharge Zone (325 feet) , a Special Permit is required
for:
any surface or subsurface discharge, including but not limited
to, storm water runoff, domestic or industrial wastewater,
drainage of any roadway that is maintained by any private
association, outlets of all drainage swales, outlets of all
detention ponds.
In the Non- Disturbance Zone (100 feet) , a Special Permit is
required for:
any activities which cause a change in topography or grade.
vegetation removal or cutting, and
any surface or subsurface drainage as noted above.
Please let me know as soon as possible if you will be undertaking
any of these activities so that we may determine if a special
permit will be necessary.

4.136 Watershed Protection District
1. Purpose
The Watershed Protection District surrounding Lake Cochichewick,
the Town' s sole source of public water supply, it _intended to
preserve and maintain the filtration and purification function of
the land, the ground water table, the purity of the ground water,
and the lake; to conserve the natural environment; and to protect
the public health, safety and welfare.
The Lake Cochichewick Watershed Plan (August 1987) , prepared by
I.E. P. , Inc. , for the Town of North Andover, is a comprehensive
study of the lake and it's watershed. The Watershed Protection
District is a portion of the I.E. P. study' s recommended
management plan. Copies of the I.E. P. report are available in
the Planning Board Office.
The Watershed Protection District is herein established as an
overlay district and shall be superimposed on the other districts
established by this Bylaw. The requirements enumerated hereafter
for this Watershed Protection District shall be in addition to,
rather than in place of, the requirements of such other district.
The Special Permit Granting Authority (SPGA) under this Bylaw
shall be the Planning Board.
2. Boundaries
a. District Boundaries
1. Boundaries of the Watershed Protection District are
shown on Attachment 1, entitled Subdrainage Areas
(dated August 1985) and contained in the Watershed
Plan. This map is hereby made a part of this Bylaw and
is on file in the office of the Town Clerk. The Zoning
Maps ' s Lake Cochichewick Watershed boundary shall
conform with the aforementioned I.E.P. map.
2 . in the event that the SPGA determines, on the basis of
credible evidence before it, that there exists a
significant doubt or dispute concerning the proper
location of boundaries of the Watershed Protection
District on any individual lot or lots, the SPGA shall,
at the request of the owner of such lot or lots, engage
a Registered Professional Engineer to advise it in
determining such boundaries. . The owner making such
request shall reimburse the SPGA for the cost of such
Engineer. Upon completion of the Engineer' s report to
the SPGA, the SPGA shall hold a hearing to make a final
determination of such boundaries. At such hearing,
such report shall be deemed evidence sufficient to.
establish the location of the boundary.
4.28
3 . When the Water Protection District boundary divides a
lot of record in June 28 , 1978 , in one ownership, the
intent of the zoning regulation set forth in this
Zoning Bylaw applying to the greater part by area of
such lot so divided shall be deemed to apply and govern
at and beyond such Watershed Protection District
boundary, but only to the extent not more than one
hundred (100) linear feet in depth (at a right angle to
such boundary into the lesser part by area of such lot
so divided, provided, however, that where the premises
are partially outside of the Watershed Protection
District, potential pollution sources such as on-site
waste disposal systems, shall be located outside of the
District to the extent feasible.
b. Buffer Zones
1. There shall exist a Non-Disturbance Buffer Zone which
shall consist of all land areas located within two
hundred fifty (250) feet horizontally from the annual

Re: Meeting June 10, 1993
The TRC met yesterday to discuss he construction of a new
library on the Brooks School campus.
The following members were presen : Bill Dolan, Fire Chief; Bob
Nicetta, Building Inspector; Ka hleen Bradley, Town Planner;
George Perna, Director of DPW; ill Hmurciak, Ass 't. Director
DPW; Karen Nelson, Director Plan ing and Community Development.
The following members were abse t: Richard Doucette, Conservation
Administrator; Sandra Star, He lth Agent; Tom Driscoll, Police
Department.
The Library is to. be constr cted on the site of the existing
business office. A new roadwa 'will be constructed to access the
Lake. Apedestrian walkway. ill be created in front of the
science bull ina and continue thr the center of the cam s.
The pe estrian walkway will be accessible for emergency vehicle.
The library will have three stories but will appear to have only
two.
Parking will be located on the South side of the building so that
it will not be visible from the main part of the campus.
Existing parking spaces will be replaced. .. for a total of 35
spaces. There are currently approximately 32 spaces . ;___e�.
There will be one additional employee at the new library. There
will not be any "visitor" spaces designated. H6? )AVel kn�ON—:- NAAW
Speed bumps will continue to be used to reduce the speed of
travel. There was -some discussion as to the use of speed dips as
opposed to speed bumps .
Mr. Dolan suggested that "grass _crete" be used for the pedestrian
walkway. � � f� �• , �oCCe¢511u
Silt fences and hay- bales will be installed to protect against
erosion and sedimentation.
The current drainage system is not ade uat� wa er��ools in the
low �a�eas. This low area will now be maintained as a detention
basin
As tI�f 11 P
A new sewer line will be constructed as part of the overall
master plan for the campus. New power and telephone lines
including fire alarms will be installed. A new master box will
be required for the library. -f /A, '/44�E-
The new driveway will have a pavement width of 18 feet which is
consistent with the other driveways/roadways4" throughout the
campus. The driveway will have a 20 slope with grass swales on
either side. i"ZW'459 XaAr"
The TRC agreed that Brooks could start the construction of the
roadway and utilities as long as they are approved by the
Department of Public Works prior to obtain g site plan review
approval.
Mr. Hmurciak raised the issue of drainage into the Lake. The
majority of the runoff will go to the low point to be maintained
as a detention basin however some amount) may drain directly into
the lake. f4jr-./E�v7%,r
The entire area is within the watershed. All wetlands in the
area of work need to be flagged and confirmed with Richard
Doucette, Conservation Administrator. Watershed Protection
Buffer Zones must be shown on the plans and determinations made
by the DPW and Planning Staff as to whether any special permits
for work within the watershed protection district are required.
Mr. Nicetta will need to know the amount of mat,eria,l, to be

excavated to determine whether or not and' ex avation permit will
be required. He will also need to know where it will be
disposed.

FST presented schematic plans for all utility systems. In general, all systems
including basic drainage concepts were accepted by Committee Members. FST
needs to get a botanist out to the site to more precisely define limits of wetlands
and then needs to show the required buffer setbacks on their plans. After this
is done, FST can informally meet with Kathleen Bradley, Richard Doucette and
Bill Hmurciak to get basic approval to go ahead with the site work. This
informal approval would be presented at the Planning Board meeting but will
require no action by the Board.
The architectural issues associated with the Library will be treated separately
and will require presentation and acceptance by the full Planning Board on June
26. Issues to be presented:
1. Colors, materials, detailing of library. Concept of contextuality
m regards to windows, detailing.
2. Planting plans, including specific lists of species and locations of
all plants.
3. Lighting;plan with fixture cuts.
Frank Marino will pay the application fee and submit the notice to the
newspaper for the June 29 Planning Board meeting.
65 Long Wharf AWM needs to provide Robert Nicetta with numbers stating the cubic yardage of
earth to be removed on the site of the Library/Business Office. Amounts over
Boston,Massachusetts 5000 cubic yards will require special permits.

To: Technical Review Committee
From: Kathleen Bradley, Town Planner
Date: June 11, 1993
Re: Meeting June 10, 1993
The TRC met yesterday to discuss the construction of a new
library on the Brooks School campus.
The following members were present: Bill Dolan, Fire Chief; Bob
Nicetta, Building Inspector; Kathleen Bradley, Town Planner;
George Perna, Director of DPW; Bill Hmurciak, Ass ' t. Director
DPW; Karen Nelson, Director Planning and Community Development.
The following members were absent: Richard Doucette, Conservation
Administrator; Sandra Star, Health Agent; Tom Driscoll , Police
Department.
The Library is to be constructed on the site of the existing
business office. A new roadway will be constructed to access the
Lake. A pedestrian walkway will be created in front of the
science building and continue through the center of the campus .
The pedestrian walkway will be accessible for emergency vehicle.
The library will have three stories but will appear to have only
two.
Parking will be located on the South side of the building so that
it will not be visible from the main part of the campus.
Existing parking spaces will be replaced for a total of 35
spaces . There are currently approximately 32 spaces currently.
There will be one additional employee at the new library. There
j will not be any "visitor" spaces designated.
speed bumps will continue to be used to reduce the speed of
i travel . There was some discussion as to the use of speed dips as
opposed to speed bumps .
I
Mr. Dolan suggested that "grass crete" be used for the pedestrian
walkway.
Silt fences and hay bales will be installed to protect against
erosion and sedimentation.
The current drainage system is not adequate, water pools in the
low areas. This low area will now be maintained as a detention
e basin.
a
4
A new sewer line will be constructed as part of the overall
master plan for the campus. New power and telephone lines
including fire alarms will be installed. A new master box will
be required for the library.
The new driveway will have a pavement width of 18 feet which is
consistent with the other driveways/roadways throughout the
campus. The driveway will have a 2% slope with grass swales on
either side.
The TRC agreed that Brooks could start the construction of the
roadway and utilities as long as they are approved by the
Department of Public Works prior to obtain g site plan review
approval.
Mr. Hmurciak raised the issue of drainage into the Lake. The
majority of the runoff will go to the low point to be maintained
as a detention basin however some amount may drain directly into
the lake.
The entire area is within the watershed. All wetlands in the
area of work need to be flagged and confirmed with Richard
Doucette, Conservation Administrator. Watershed Protection
Buffer Zones must be shown on the plans and determinations made
by the DPW and Planning Staff as to whether any special permits
for work within the watershed protection district are required.
Mr. Nicetta will need to know the amount of material to be
excavated to determine whether or not and excavation permit will
be required. He will also need to know where it will be
disposed. f.

Dear Joe:
I inspected the Brooks School waterfront on this date for the
purposes of determining the Conservation Commission's jurisdiction
and the current Chapter 91 application. After our discussion and
my inspection, it is clear that since the Brooks School wharf/dock
complex was constructed prior to the institution of the
Conservation Commission's permitting authority under the Wetlands
Protection Act; the Commission had no jurisdiction at the time this
complex was constructed.
If asked by the Chapter 91 permitting authorities for any specific
recommendations, I will suggest that the following conditions be
included in their permit:
1. The floatation should be inspected. If the floatation is
comprised of steel drums they should be replaced with a more
corrosive-resistant form of floatation when next repaired or
replaced.
2 . No creosote-treated wood should be used for any future repairs.
Any wood used for repairs should be untreated or treated with a
process which can in no way contaminate the water supply. Aluminum
docks may be more appropriate for a water supply, but I will leave
this determination up to the Chapter 91 permitting authorities.
Sincerely,
Richard P. Doucette

Dear Ms. Bradley,
Enclosed are 8 copies of sheets to familiarize members of the planning board
with the work being undertaken at the Brooks School. There are three principal
components of this project:
1. Site utility improvements.
2. Reconfiguration of parking and driveways.
3. Construction of new library and business office.
As an introduction to our technical review on June 10, we have sent you the
following, information:
1. Site Plan of the existing project site.
2. A Site Plan of the proposed project.
3. Main Floor Plan of the new 3-floor Library and Floor Plan of the
1-floor Business Office.
Please note that the existing Site Plan is oriented differently than the proposed
plans. We will bring more extensive plans on Thursday and be prepared to
discuss the project in detail at that time.
Best Regards,
