NAME/DESCRIPTION OF PROJECT: The project being proposed is an 18,000 square foot addition to the existing crusader paper building. The property is currently owned by Holt Road Realty, LLC 350 Holt Road,North Andover, MA. The property is the main manufacturing location for the Crusader Paper Company. The purpose of the proposed addition is to add additional storage space for the raw materials used at the plant. Currently Crusader paper stores some of its raw materials at an off site location and trucks them to the site as needed. This new addition would eliminate the need for the second site. ZONING INFORMATION: The site as proposed will meet all of the zoning bylaw requirements of the I-2 zoning district. Construction of the new addition will not require any additional signage and no additional parking or landscaping is proposed. A special permit from the Zoning Board for a reduced number of parking spaces is required. Under the zoning bylaw the number of parking spaces is the larger number of 1 per 1000 square feet of gross floor area (122 required) or one space for each 2 employees (40 required). This site has never had more than 75 employees and is currently employing approximately 40 people. The site has 48 spaces which is adequate for 96 employees. STORMWATER DRAINAGE: The original site plan for this property included the construction of a detention pond on the North side of the property adjacent to the roadway. Over the years the pond has filled with silt and has become wooded. In order to accommodate the additional flow of water from the new impervious area the detention pond will be cleaned and reshaped to hold more water. Pre development calculations indicate that at the present time the pond would overflow on to Holt Road. Calculations with the new pond size have been done and indicate that the runoff will not exceed the top of the pond. BUILDING ELEVATION: The new addition will be built to match the existing exterior style. This application is requesting that a waiver be granted allowing the applicant to not produce exterior elevations. Pictures of the existing building have been submitted in lieu of the required elevation drawings. LOCATION OF WETLANDS/NOTICE OF INTENT: There are no wetlands existing on the subject property. There is a small corner of the property located within the 200 foot riverfront protection zone of the Merrimack River. A filing will be made with the conservation commission for the work in this area. LOCATIONS OF WALLS/SIGNS: There is one small segmental block retaining wall proposed and no new signs proposed. LOCATIONS OF ROADWAYS/DRIVES: The new addition will be located so as to obstruct access around the building. To compensate for this lack of access a new entry on to Holt Road at the cul-de-sac has been designed. This new entry will provide for access around the building as required by the fire department. OUTDOOR STORAGE/DISPLAY AREAS: There are no outdoor storage or display areas anticipated. LANDSCAPING PLAN: Based upon the relatively small footprint of the new addition and the fact that most of the site will remain undisturbed, new landscaping is not being proposed. A waiver from submitting a landscape plan is being requested. REFUSE AREAS: Refuse will be handled in the same manner as it is now. No increase in the amount of refuse will be experienced as a result of this proposed expansion. LIGHTING FACILITIES: There is no need for additional lighting with this proposal. A waiver from submitting a lighting plan is being requested. TRAFFIC IMPACT STUDY: No impact upon traffic is expected since no new employees will be hired as a result of the construction of the addition. Truck traffic will be reduced since the off site storage of materials will be eliminated. A waiver from the requirement of providing a traffic study is being requested. COMMONWEALTH REVIEW: No additional review by the Commonwealth of Massachusetts beyond what is required for the conservation commission is anticipated. UTILITIES: There are no new utilities proposed. FISCAL IMPACT: Since this project does not anticipate the addition of any new employees the only impact to the community would be increased property value and therefore increased property taxes. The very low level of community services required by the existing building should remain the same. COMMUNITY IMPACT: The site is located within an industrial area and presently contains a large manufacturing building. The addition of the new space will not increase the number of employees and therefore will not impact traffic, community services, and any adjacent properties. The new space will be used in a manner which is consistent with the existing use of the property and the properties in the surrounding area. ! now, Now Iv illo x r Abutter to Abutter( Building Dept.
