17 PUBLIC HEARINGS
18 CONTINUED PUBLIC HEARING, 1077 Osgood Street: Application for a Watershed Special
19 Permit and Site Plan Review Special Permit. Applicant proposes to construct a 3,672 sq. ft.
20 single story retail bank, parking lot, and stormwater structures within the Non-Discharge Zone
21 and Non-Disturbance Zone of the Watershed Protection District.
22 J. Simons: Summarized some of the project notes provided by J. Tymon.
23 James Emmanuel, Landscape Architect: Provided an overview of the landscape plan. Some of
24 the existing landscaping will be re-located and some new material will be added. There is a
25 distance of approximately 20' from the proposed retaining wall to the property line. The grade
26 change at the highest point of the retaining wall is approximately 8'. Red maple trees will be
27 planted along the wall and the existing vegetation on that side of the property will remain.
28 Richard Barthelmes, Lynnfield Engineering: Reviewed the existing and proposed retaining wall
29 material/color, the truck turning plan, and the location of the employee parking spaces. The
30 truck turning plan demonstrates a WB-40 truck which is similar to a fire truck. The Fire
31 Department has not submitted a response to the truck turning plan yet. Employee parking signs
32 and traffic directional signs will be added to the plan.
33 Board: General discussion around possibly widening the bank entrance way by cutting back the
34 curbed edge at the entrance or widening the main entrance drive, by shaving back the left side, to
35 make it easier for a fire truck to turn into the bank parking area. Suggested moving the
36 employee parking to the parking spots across from the handicap parking spaces. It was agreed
37 that these could be relocated if necessary based on activity.
38 R. Barthelmes: There is approximately 24' from the ATM island to the edge of pavement. A car
39 at the drive-through would leave approximately 15'. The drive-through has two teller lanes and
40 an ATM lane.
41 L. Rudnicki: The truck turning plan does not show the back of the main building where the
42 spaces have been lined. There are two gas meters shown on the plan in the parking spaces

43 located behind the building. Cement bollards should be installed, the curb stops are not enough.
44 These spaces should be marked out farther to account for the meters.
45 Michael Juliano, Eaglebrook Engineering & Survey, LLC: Provided an overview of the
46 stormwater management design. The proposed system will recharge more water from the entire
47 site than the existing site design. The only water that goes into the current detention pond is the
48 water that falls into it. It was designed to handle surcharge from the existing piping system.
49 There has never been a surcharge.
50 Board: Detailed discussion on the system design/Ma stormwater handbook requirements,
51 bypass design, maintenance requirements/enforcement, snow removal plan, and responses to L.
52 Eggleston's comments.
53 Michael Juliano: Explained various types of Low Impact Development (LID) options and the
54 functionality of the proposed stormwater "filter structure". L. Eggleston would prefer a LID
55 option, but Michael stated that it just does not work on this site.
56 Board: Requested a better explanation of what "storm size" this system is capable of handling.
57 Also, a detailed construction sequence schedule should be reviewed at the next meeting.
58 R. Barthelmes: There will be additional conversations with L. Eggleston to resolve some of her
59 concerns and the construction schedule will be completed for the next meeting.

61 DISCUSSION
62 Brooks School: Request for Watershed Special Permit waiver.
63 Brian Palm, Director of Environmental Stewardship: Would like to replace a transformer that is
64 feeding the electrical supply in the boat house. The new transformer would be located up the
65 hill, further away from the lake and boat house. The work would be kept 50' from the adjacent
66 wetland that runs up the hill. A Request for Determination (RDA) has been filed with the
67 Conservation Department. There would not be any clearing or re-grading. There would be some
68 excavation for a small pad that would be added to hold the new transformer. The existing pipe
69 will have to be accessed and the wiring will be pulled through the existing pipe to the boat house.
70 Norm Grenier, Director of Facilities: Described the size of the transformer and required pad.
71 MOTION
72 A motion was made by R. Rowen to waive a Watershed Special Permit conditioned on oversight
73 by the Town Planner, the statement of work provided in the RDA request and approval by the
74 Conservation Commission. The motion was seconded by D. Kellogg. The vote was unanimous,
75 6-0 in favor.
