A decision granting a variance or a special permit shall not be in effect until a certified copy of the decision is recorded at the Essex County Registry of Deeds,Northern District at Applicant's expense. Further provided that if the Property is registered land,then a certified copy of the decision shall also be filed with the Land Court. 2. A decision granting a variance or special permit as requested by Applicant does not necessarily ensure the granting of a building permit because Applicant must abide by all applicable local, state, and federal building codes and regulations prior to the issuance of a building permit as required by the Inspector of Buildings. 3. Generally, (a) if the rights authorized by a decision granting a variance are not exercised within one (1)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(b)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 pursuant to the provisions of Town of North Andover Zoning Bylaws Section 195- 10.7.
