RE: Horne Grown Lacrosse—Certification of substantial completion
492 Sutton Street
North Andover, MA 01845
Dear Ms. Enright:
On behalf of our client, Home Grown Lacrosse, LLC, Hancock Associates has reviewed the as-built
conditions for the project completed at 492 Sutton Street, along Terminal Road and found the majority of
the site to be within substantial compliance with the decision endorsed by the Planning Board with the
exception of the completion of final landscaping and minor design alterations. All stormwater
management practices have been inspected and are working properly.
During the construction process a few minor items were modified from the original approved plan set. The
items are as follows:
1. Final Landscaping —Landscaping is still in progress. The proposed trees to be planted
surrounding the parking lot and the G' landscaping buffer along Sutton Street have not been
installed. Plantings are proposed to be installed in the Spring of 2025 when weather conditions
are more conducive to the survival of the plantings. Upon completion of final landscaping this
office will reinspect and issue a final certification in support of performance bond release and final
as-built certification.
2. Roof Drip Edge-- Instead of a gutter system as shown on the endorsed plan set, a drip edge and
stone trench was installed and connected to the porous pavement reservoir system thus
achieving the same design goal.
3. Rear Gravel Entrance—A gravel drive has been installed connecting the rear overhead door and
Terminal Road.
4. Dumpster Pad—Dumpster pad has not been installed.
5. Curb Stops—Curb stops have been used along the norther side of the parking lot in lieu of
concrete curbing.
Therefore, I, Brian G. Geaudreau, a registered Professional Engineer in the Commonwealth of
Massachu�%tsJi.pd the as-built conditions at 492 Sutton Street, excepting the items listed above, find the
buildin , , d s ap), ghting and Site layout to substantially comply with the Plans endorsed by the
Plan e csarcTa� 1at ,,the stormwater management structures are functioning as designed.
