The parcel is 4.77 acres in size in a Residential -3 zone. The Planning Board makes the following findings as required by the Rules and Regulations Governing the Subdivision of Land Sections 10.3, and 10.31. A.

The following members were present: George Perna, Richard Nardella, John Simons, Joseph Mahoney, John Draper and Richard Rowen. The legal notice was duly advertised in the Lawrence Eagle Tribune on January 18 and January 25, 1993 and all parties of interest were properly notified. The petitioner was requesting a Special Permit - PRD for the construction of 15 single family dwelling units in a Residential -3 Zoning District. The premise affected is located on the North side of Massachusetts Avenue. Mr. Simons read the legal notices to open the public hearing. Comments were also read from the D.P.W. Al Shaboo, Environeers, gave the Board a brief presentation of the proposed development. 1. PRD proposed 2. There are Form A lots 3. proposing two roadways 4. open space will be provided 5. Town sewer and water Mr. Shaboo stated that he wanted to maintain as much of a green space as possible as shown on the plans. The watermain can be looped. There are no drainage calculations completed at this time as the project has not been finalized. Page 2• Cobblestone Crossing Mr. Draper asked if this development could connect to Cranberry Lane. Ms. Bradley stated that the houses were too close together on Cranberry Lane and there were no easements granted. Mr. Simons stated that this was a transition area because of the commercial and residential mix. He asked that the developer look at other alternatives, such as commercial use in the existing houses. Maybe light business along Route 125. Mr. Perna asked if there were wetlands on the site. Mr. Shaboo stated that there were no wetlands on the site and the engineers have reviewed the site. There has been a submittal to the Conservation Commission. Questions were raised on how the number of lots were calculated. Mr. Perna commented on the following: 1. green space usually connects to other pieces of open space 2. commercial /residential buffer needed 3. no increase traffic on Route 125 4. Would not allow roads to be 7' off each other, have to be directly across from Phillips Common. Mr. Simons suggested changing the zoning to allow the houses on Route 125 to remain but be used as businesses. If torn down, uses would be lost. Mr. Perna opened the meeting to the public for comments. Julia Warchol expressed concerns about wetlands and wanted to know the zoning requirements. Mr. Shaboo stated that in a conventional subdivision, the required lot area is 1/2 acre. In a cluster development 1/4 acre is required.
