FINDINGS OF FACT: In accordance with 4.136(4)the Planning Board makes the finding that the intent of the Bylaw, as well as its specific criteria,are met. Specifically the Planning Board finds: 1) That as a result of the proposed construction in conjunction with other uses nearby, there will not be any significant degradation of the quality or quantity of water in or entering Lake Cochichewick The Planning Board bases its findings on the following facts: a) The proposed project is located on town sewer; b) The area where the addition is proposed is an area that was previously disturbed for house construction and sewer line installation. c) Construction of the addition will result in no alteration to vegetation; d) The creation of a subsurface drainage discharge that will be able to accommodate the runoff from the 100-year storm, supplemented by appropriate erosion and sedimentation controls has mitigated any increase in stormwater runoff. 2) That there is no reasonable alternative location outside the Non-Disturbance Zone for any discharge, structure or activity, associated with the proposed project because a proposal on the western side of the property would require the removal of mature trees and ledge, as well as there is no means of egress from the three sets of existing sliders, and could result in a failure to comply with zoning setbacks. In accordance with Section 10.31 of the North Andover Zoning Bylaw, the Planting Board makes the following findings: A The specific site is an appropriate location for the proposed use as all feasible storm water and erosion controls have been placed on the site; B. The use will not adversely affect the neighborhood as the lot is located in a residential zone; C. There will be no nuisance or serious hazard to vehicles or pedestrians; D. Adequate and appropriate facilities are provided for the proper operation of the proposed use; E. The Planning Board also makes a specific finding that the use is in harmony with the general purpose and intent of the North Andover Zoning Bylaw. Upon reaching the above findings, the Planning Board approves this Special Permit based upon the following conditions: SPECIAL CONDITIONS: 1) This decision must be filed with the North Essex Registry of Deeds.
