BUILDING CONSERVATION '0 9 DIVISION OF PLANNING PLANNING & COMMUNITY DEVELOPMENT August 17, 1992 Mr. Daniel Long Town Clerk Town Building 120 Main Street North Andover, MA 01845 Re: Special Permit Flowage Inc. Great Pond Road - Sewer Extension Dear Mr. Long: The North Andover Planning Board held a regular meeting on August 4, 1992, in the Town Building, Selectmen's Meeting Roomupon the application of Flowage Inc.,c/o Channel Building Co., 242 Neck Road, Haverhill, MA 01830 requesting a Special Permit approval under Section 4.136 of the North Andover Zoning Bylaw. The legial notice was published in the Lawrence Eagle"Tribune on July 20 and July 27, 1992. All parties of interest were properly notified. The following member were present and voting: George Perna, Chairman, John Simons, Clerk, Joseph Mahoney, John Draper, Richard Nardella and Richard Rowen. The purpose of the special permit was for the construction of a sewer line within the Non-Disturbance Zone of the Watershed Protection District. The property affected is located within the public right-of-way, otherwise known as Great Pond Road,in a Residential-t (R1) Zoning District. Page 2: Flowage, Inc. Christian Huntress stated that the application before the Board was for the construction of a sewer line from the Colonnade to a pump station near Ray's Pond. The Colonnade septic system is failing and the connection to the sewer line is essential. Christian Huntress stated that he has drafted a conditional approval on this application. John Simons read the legal notice to open the public hearing. Christian Huntress showed the Board the plans. Approvals from the D.P.W. and the Conservation Commission have been received. Steven Foster, Channel Building, Project Manager, spoke to the Board on the application before them. An escrow account was set up when the Colonnade was sold as condo's. Mr. Foster explained the way the system would work. George Perna asked about the existing septic system. Flowage Inc. has nothing to do with the Colonnade. Flowage Inc. owns the pump station at Rays Pond. The pump station is connected to the French Farm Subdivision. It was built larger so that others could connect. The Colonnade has been asked by the Board of Health to connect into that pump station. Questions were raised about taking out the old septic system once hooked up to the sewer. George Perna stated that the old systemwould be used as a back-up. A condition will be put in the decision on who has control of the back-up system, which will be the D.P.W. A motion was made by John Draper to close the public hearing. The motion was seconded by Joseph Mahoney and voted unanimously by those present. Conservation has issued an Order of Conditions. There is a S100,000 bond in place for the work. A motion was made by John Draper to approve the construction of a sewer from the Colonnade to the pump station at Rays Pond as drafted and amended. The motion was seconded by Richard Nardella and voted unanimously by those present. Page 3: Flowage Inc. Attached are those conditions.
