Re: Orchard Hill Road -Definitive Subdivision/Site Plan Review
Dear Tom,
The Planning Board reviewed your request to waive or reduce the project review fees required for
the Definitive Subdivision Plan and the Site Plan Review Application for this one lot subdivision.
As $1,515.63 currently remains in the Project Review Fee Account from the preliminary review of
the subdivision and a total of$3,000 is deemed adequate to review the site, the Board agreed to
reduce the Site Plan Review Project Fee to $1,500 and to roll over the existing $1, 515.63 into
the Definitive Plan Project Review Fee.
As you are aware the Planning Board has the power,under Section 4.4(C) of the Fee
Regulations, to require a supplemental fee if the amount in these accounts should fall below 25%
of the initial fee.
Please submit the $1,500 Site Plan Review Fee by the end of this week so that the review of the
project can begin, 1f you have any questions please do not hesitate to call me at 688-9535.
Very truly yours,
Kathleen.Bradley Colw�116

Re: Orchard Hill Road Definitive Subdivision
This Definitive plan is based on a Preliminary Plan and Approval issued 2/28/97.
There have been no material changes in the plan, although appropriate additional detail and. corrections
have been added.
Roadway construction and drainage are not changed from prior approvals issued for a substantially
larger development plan approved as plan#11761 on 3/19/90, The state DPW permit #5-20405 is
attached for reference regarding construction of the existing facilities at Orchard Hill Road.
To address your recent checklist, below is an itemized review:
Filing Forms C, D, E: Submitted
Key Map at scale of 200' = 1": On plans
Locus Map at scale of 600' = 1": On plans
Septic Tests: Shown on Plan, test data on separate page(SSDS approved on 4/3/97 by NABOH)
Drainage Analysis: Using approved drainage plan from existing plan approval referenced and submitted
Ownership/Encumbrances. No new roadway development proposed from previous plans. Hydrology
submitted with site plan for development of specific lot 1-2A, contained on site.
Construction Schedule: Submitted
Soil Map: Submitted
Review Fees : Paid
Erosion Control Plan: Hay Bales backed by silt fence will be in on all downgrade areas of
construction, across the end of existing pavement and easterly in downgrade shoulder of
Right of Way, returning south and upgrade at station 4+50 to southerly border of Right
of Way. This is also indicated on the plan.
Specilaized Engineering: None Required
I
Plans:
Zoning Information: Submitted
Subdivision Name: Submitted
Abutting Property Owners: Submitted
North Arrow: Submitted
Boundary Survey: Submitted
Existing/Proposed Streets: Submitted
Lot Dimensions: Submitted
Easements: None Proposed
Drainage Improvements: Approved plan referenced, and state DPW permit attached
Topography: Submitted; no wetlands on site, confirming with M. Howard on site 4/10/97
Existing Tree Line: Entire parcel is wooded, therefore no distinguighing line is indicated
Location of Septic Test Holes: Submitted
Major Site Features: None noted or notable
Survey: Submitted
Street Profiles: Submitted; :note that the 5% grade is consistent with previous plan approved (4.74%)
Street Cross-sections: Submitted
Signature: Submitted
Location of Existing Septic Systems/Wells: None exist
Land Not Subdivided: None
Statement of Environmental Impact: It is our understanding that this is typically not required on
proposals of this size
Preliminary Plan Issues:
1.a. The industrial zone line has been shown on the plan
Lb. The subdivision roadway drainage is only that which was previously approved, or less, and all lots
developed will have on-site controls.
1.c. The water supply has been shown on the plans
2,a. The jog in the ROW has been eliminated by providing a strip of land to the abutter to align the road
2.b. The radius at Osgood street is not provided due to the shape of the parcel, per previous approval
2.c. The grade'at the intersection with Osgood Street is +-5%, which exceeds required grades but is
consistent with the previously approved plan specifying 4.74%
2.d. Adequate aggregate shoulder width is provided, but if further development is proposed on this
site the roadway will be re-aligned slightly to fully comply. This is consistent with the intention
of trying to minimize site and infrastructure disturbance for such a small project.
2.e. Constuction of a sidewalk for the extension of this roadway 190' does not seem consistent with
safety concerns since it might encourage pedestrian traffic toward Osgood Street which has no
sidewalks. As with other projects, we are receptive to a donation to the sidewalk fund for the
equivalent 190' of roadway at the DPW bonding rate of$21.00 per foot ($3,990.00)if required.
3.a. Waiver for pavement width accepted
3.b. Waiver of construction of cul-de-sac, extension of paving to end of Parcel I-2A, and construction
of circular driveway on Parcel I-2A accepted.
Please contact me with any questions or concerns.

Re: Orchard Hill Road Definitive Subdivision
This correspondence is in response to the review by John Chessia of the alcove-referenced plan.
To address the checklist, below is are itemized response. Please acknowledge that we consider this to be
a Modification to an existing plan. Most issues were favorably addressed through the Preliminary
Planning process a few months ago.
1. We (Tom Z., Kathleen Colwell, Bill Scott) discussed to satisfaction the status of the historical
permits, and that the drainage sufficiency using the previously approved plan details would be
confirmed or revised according to the Mass. State DPW, We also confirmed that the work at the
intersection was done within the time constraints provided by the permits, and subsequently
revised/reworked to satisfy State DPW concerns.
2. All erosion control plan was submitted both in plan and narrative form. A reserve stock of(20)'hay
bales and 100' of silt fence will be maintained on site for emergency needs.
3. A Professional Engineer will sign and stamp the final plans.
4. The legend has been revised and enhanced.
5. The pavement radius at Osgood Street is an existing condition previously acknowledged and
accepted in the Preliminary Review process. We have indicated an approximation of its existing radius
Oil the plan.
6. The original submission indicated in narrative form that the property was entirely wooded, and
therefore there was no need or method of indicating that on the plans.
7. The existing developed lot is not material to this subdivision. It has extensive frontage on Route 125,
and has been developed and operating for many years. We have no right to acquire or obligation to
present the topographic information of that property.
8. The road profile has been fully detailed. Again, this is an existing condition which, regardless of
technical details, was acknowledged as acceptable during the Preliminary review process. A benchmark
has been added to the plan. I do not agree that it is difficult to distinguish existing and proposed
structures, they are all clearly marked in the submitted plan and profile details.
9. The street cross-section now complies with town standards, The cross-section originally provided
reflected the agreed cross-section which was approved at the Preliminary stage. .
10. MVFCU site is not material to this project or application. (see also Item 7)
11. All abutters are noted as required. Barker property is contiguous and extensive, and cannot be
completely shown without multiple additional plan pages, which would be unnecessary.
12, It is our understanding that projects of this size and nature typically do not trigger a request for a
Statement of Environmental Impact.
13. This waiver is no longer requested.
14. No ROW radius is provided at Osgood Street because existing parcel layout does not allow.it. This
was acceptable in previously approved plans as well as the Preliminary submission. Furthermore, the
pavement radius proposed in this modification is not affected by the shape of the ROW here, and there
would be no access or utility issues involved with this layout.
IS. This waiver is no longer requested,
16. The grade at Osgood Street cues comply with grade and leveling requirements; the detail has been
revised to reflect these conditions in more detail.
17. We have provided a design for a standard cirl-de-sac.
18. This waiver is no longer requested,
19, The paving will comply with town standards in this regard (2.5" binder').
20:No waiver is being requested, The plans have been revised to blend existing edge of pavement on
the Forth side to new pavement to accommodate the acceptable shoulder of 8' as the roadway passes in
front of the Lot I2-A,
21. Yes.
22. No street trees are proposed. Extensive plantings are required through the Site Plan Review
process on each lot, and it is my understanding that NADPW would prefer not to have to maintain
additional plantings in the ROW of industrial projects.
23. Cable utilities are'the jurisdiction of the utility companies themselves, and they determine proper
layout and design. We have shown proposed facilities, although they are subject to the above. The
Planning Board regulations dictate that these elements need only be presented to DPW prior to
installation, not provided at this time.
24. The fire hydrant has been moved back to the ROW, therefore no easement is required.
25, Details of the proposed water facilities which comply with Town specifications have been added to
the plans.
26. All site development drainage is being dealt with on the individual site through the Site Plan Review.
Drainage infrastructure previously approved and partially installed is being completed as part of this
Modification and, per discussion with Kathleen Colonel and Bill Scott after review of existing permits, .
will be confirmed for continued acceptability with the State DPW, It is worth noting here that the
i Y
contribution to the state drainage facility proposed by these revisions,reflects dramatic reductions in
stortnwater contribution to the state system versus the original plan and permits, and we therefore
expect no objection through State DPW.
27, Monuments and benchmarks Have been added to the plan.
28. Inverts at the proposed manhole and catchbasins were already noted in the profile; we have now
added them on the plan page but this request is contrary to our practice and all previous work presented
to the Town.
29, Pipe material was already noted on the profile;we have now added it to the plan page but this is
contrary to our practice and all previous work presented to the Town.
30, The sewer notation has been removed from the roadway cross section detail,as all properties are to
be serviced by SSDS.
31. Handicapped ramps and retainers are not part of the subdivision submission; appropriate details will
be provided to the Building Inspector at the time of Building Permit Application.
32, The grade line at elevation 90/92 has been corrected.
I believe this response completely addresses the checklist from John Chessia.
In summary, we have changed the roadway to a standard 40' paved section and complied with all other
relevant Town design standards. Additional information has been added to the plans to reflect it] more
detail the existing conditions,as well as clarify some items requested by John Chessia regarding
proposed improvements. We intend to work with the existing conditions on the roadway, bleeding the
new improvements to accommodate a functioning, stabilized, and beautified but substandard existing
condition.
Please contact me with any questions or concerns.

RE: Street Acceptance for Orchard Hill Development
Dear Developer;
The Planning Office is in the process of assessing active subdivisions to determine the
compliance with the approved plans and the decision. Our goal is to assist you in
reaching street acceptance with a completed project.In going through our files, we
jioticed that you have documentation required to be submitted to our department to
maintain compliance with the Town of North Andover Subdivision Regulations and the
Notice of Decision issued relative to your project. In the absence of this information,
you will be unable to get your street accepted.
On the following page, please find a detailed list of information we will need in order for
you to get your street'accepted. The list may refer to conditions in your Notice of
Decision, which we are attaching for you to easily refer to.
Additionally, I would suggest that you set up a meeting with myself, so that I may
explain to you what is left in your subdivision to be completed. At that time we can also
schedule an inspection of your subdivision by the Department of Public Works at a
mutually convenient time in order for you to be ready for street acceptance.
This list is only a preliminary review, and there may be more items outstanding that need
to be completed once an inspection.has been conducted. Upon further review your
subdivision, we will compile a mote�detailed comparison of your decision(s) and the
rules and regulations as it relates to your subdivision.
