If. FiNDINGS/DISCUSSION/CONDITIONS
The Board has made careful study of the materials submitted and the information presented at the
hearings.
The Board finds that owing to circumstances relating to soil conditions,shape,or topography of the land
or structures and especially affecting such land or structures but not affecting generally the zoning district
in general,a literal enforcement of the provisions of the Bylaws will involve substantial hardship,
financial or otherwise,to Applicant,and that desirable relief may be granted without substantial detriment
to the public good and without nullifying or substantially derogating from the intent or purpose of the
Bylaws.
Therefore,the Board finds that Applicant has satisfied the provisions to allow the requested variances in
order to construct a Senior Center pursuant to the Town of North Andover Zoning Bylaws Section 195-
7.3 Yards(setbacks),Table 2(Dimensional Requirements)and Section 195-8.5(A)Design Standards
(Minimum Setback from Lot Line)in the RA and B-2 Zoning Districts in accordance with the plans,
other materials,and testimony at the public hearings.

Notes:
1. A decision granting a variance or a special permit shall not be in effect until a certified copy of the

Further provided that if the Property is registered land then a certified copy of the decision shall also
be filed with the Land Court.

year of the date of the grant then such rights shall lapse and may be re-established after notice and a
new hearing pursuant to the provisions of Mass.Gen.L.ch.40A, § 10,and the rights authorized by a
decision granting a special permit shall be deemed to have lapsed after a two(2)year period from the
date of the grant unless substantial use or construction has commenced.
