Paul Hedstrom, Chairman
120 Main Street
North Andover, Massachusetts f Re: Wintergreen Subdivision
Dear Paul:
I have reviewed the plans and make the following recommendations:
First of all, this type of development should not be allowed.
Cul-de-sacs, where land cannot be developed otherwise is one thing, but
in this case, there is absolutely no need of it. Especially three cul-
de-sacs, and none of them with any future connection to any of the
abutting( properties. This parcel of land should be either, a horse shoe
design, in and out type, or no more than one cul-de-sac situated so that
it could be projected into future development in the area.
Foster Street, where the frontage lots abut is very narrow and has
a very serious drainage problem, as it exists,especially during the
winter months when it causes severe icing conditions. I would like to
request that the developer consider possible road widening easements
to the town which would enable us to correct both the narrowness of the
road and institute a necessary drainage system to correct that problem.
Other recommendations are:
1. Road shoulder areas be 8 feet wide with a maximum %" to
the foot raise from the edge of the pavement.
2. Cape Cod berm required where deemed necessary by the
Highway Surveyor. Type and locations to be chosen by
Highway Surveyor.
3. Catch basins to be off the road and swaled to collect
the most drainage flow possible. Rim to be set two
inches lower than finish top edge of pavement.
4. All drainage easements to run continuous through the
land and to be deeded to the town by the developer.
I will be attending your meeting tonight if you:-have any further
questions.
i
Very truly yours,

Michael Roberts,Chairman
120 Main Street
North Andover, Massachusetts Re: Wi.ntei,-green Estates
Dear Mike-,
I have reviewed definitive plans and would like to make the
following comments.
I have no real problems with this plan other than a few minor
ones which I will list:
1 . 1 do not like to see the full 50' road layout cleared
of trees and opened up to 50 foot wide. A twenty six
foot wide paved road with an eight foot cleared shoulder
Is more than adequate and is better aesthetically and
environmentally. This has been our policy and in my
opinion, has worked out well and looks nice.
2. Riprap to be placed at pipe outlets to be 611 minimum
in size.
3. Any brick used to be a clay brick.
Footings for headwalls to be two feet wide with vertical,
rods set prior to pouring top. 36" of depth to be
required below ground level. Length to be determined
in the field.
5. No drainage to be laid on less than 1% grade.
6. Cape Cod berm will be required if necessary, to be
determined in the field.
Very truly yours,
r
