Re: Building Permit Application for finishing a room at 26 Stanton Way;
Dear: Mrs. Brosnihan,
Your application for a building addition was reviewed by the Health Department on December
22,2015. Unfortunately, the application cannot be approved by the Health Department for the
following reasons found below. Please see email correspondence between you and the Health
office on prior occasions; May 28, 2014 and November 10, 2014. Your proposal exceeds the
allowed total number of rooms as related to the septic system.
1. x Missing information -A deed restriction for the numbers of rooms has not been
accepted by the Board of Health as required by Title V
2. x Undersized septic system—home is maxed out with number of rooms as related to the
flow of the septic system.
To address the problem(s):
Please supply:
a. A draft deed restriction must be submitted for review.
Please feel free to call the Health Office at 978-688-9540 with any questions you may have.
Sic rely,
Michele Grant,

Good Afternoon,
The email below is in regards to the use of a Deed Restriction on a new home; specifically the flow rate of the
septic system as it relates to the number of rooms. Please let me know if you have any other questions.
Thank you,
Susan
Use of Deed Restriction
Below is out the MA DEP Regulation
2
i
t
l
310 CMR 15.02 Definition - Bedroom
(a) floor space of no less than 70 square feet;
(b) for new construction, a ceiling height of no less than seven feet three inches;
(c) for existing houses and for mobile homes, a ceiling height of no less than seven feet zero
inches;
(d) an electrical service and ventilation; and
f
(e) at least one window.
Living rooms, dining rooms, kitchens, halls, bathrooms, unfinished cellars and unheated
storage areas over garages are not considered bedrooms. Single family dwellings shall be
presumed to have at least three bedrooms. Where the total number of rooms for single family
dwellings exceeds eight, not including bathrooms, hallways, unfinished cellars and unheated
storage areas,the number of bedrooms presumed shall be calculated by dividing the total number
of rooms by two then rounding down to the next lowest whole number. The applicant may
design a system using design flows for a smaller number of bedrooms than are presumed in this
definition by granting to the Approving Authority a deed restriction limiting the number of
bedrooms to the smaller number.
The link is to a sample deed restriction. It allows an owner to have more that the total number of rooms as
allowed by code; but requires the number of rooms that are clearly bedrooms to be the actual number. Hence a 4
bedroom (9-room home) could be allowed to finish the basement into a playroom and/or the attic into a study
area, but never be converted into and or sold as a 5-bedroom home.
You are not obligated to use this form, but before altering, I would seek legal counsel. Generally,the deed
notice should be drafted by the applicant's attorney and recorded on the deed before we would sign off on a
building permit. The deed notice should indicate the reason for it is being drafted, that the owners cannot
represent the house as having more than 4 bedrooms, and that the restriction can only be removed with approval
from the board of health
htto://www.topsfield-ma.gov/doeLiinents/health/documents/'f itleVBedrooiiiCouiitDeedRestrictioii.pdf
Projecting forward:
If there is no deed restriction and later on there is a desire to increase rooms or to add on, it would be more
involved and not a guarantee. A 4-bedroom house by definition cannot be greater than 9 rooms. Currently,
Under 15.204 and elsewhere in Title 5, it is clear the Health Dept cannot approve the expansion of an existing
facility to include flow beyond the design capacity of the system and future expansion would need the upgrade
the system to meet new construction standards before we could authorize the additional bedroom (or,
alternatively, they would need to re-design their addition to eliminate walls or somehow keep the room count
down to where it stays with flow that does not exceed the design flow) Deed restrictions after the fact, are
generally subject to review by the Board of Health, who will determine whether to accept or deny it based on
information given at the time.

Hi Michele,
Thanks so much for the call and email today. This attachment seems pretty straight forward and easy
enough to complete. I can ask my attorney if he will review and do it for me and then I will scan it and
send it for your review if you don't mind doing that for me. Then we can file it after that. And maybe
we will get lucky and you will get the approval to sign off on it instead of going before a board. That
would be awesome.
This is a first time ever for us so we needed a lot of guidance. I should have called you months ago
(my fault) instead of just having the deed restriction done as the 4 bedroom. Live and learn as they
say. Thought we were doing the right thing at the time.
Anyways, I am hoping he can get to this next week for me but we'll see. I will be back in touch at
some point (hopefully soon) so we can try to continue with our end of January remodel plans instead
of pushing it off.

I thank you very much for your time, help and assistance on this.
wish you a very Merry Christmas and I hope you have some good time off this week.
All the best,
Talk soon.
Teresa Brosnihan
