Subject: NStar – Proposed Work on Main Street

 

At your request, the engineering department has reviewed a plan for the installation of electrical manholes and conduits along Main Street. Between Walnut Street and Campbell Street.

 

The proposed improvements in some areas would conflict with the year 5 Cleaning and Lining contract in that some of the proposed conduits areadjacent to the 16” water main along the easterly sideline of Main Street. There is insufficient room to install the new gate valves at Walnut Street. Everett Street, Union Street and Campbell Street. We recommend that all new conduits and manholes be placed in the available space between the existing electric service and the sewer in the center of the street. In no case should the proposed conduits, concrete encasement  and appurtenances be within 3 feet of the existing water main, such that there will be sufficient space for the new 16 inch gate valves, tees and cleaning and lining pits.

 

The proposed work will also disturb the “Impressed Crosswalks” along Main Street. We would recommend that these be replaced in kind in order to provide a uniform surface for the entire crossing.

 

We trust the foregoing information is sufficient for your needs. Should you have any questions or comments, please do not hesitate to contact this office.

 

Appearing for the petitioner was Leo Keefe, NSTAR Electric Company and he stated that this will increase transformer capacity to prevent outages in the summer, and that any cobblestones dug up with become the property of the city. Thomas Quinn, Acting Superintendent, Department of Public Works stated that there have been explosions in this area in the past, that this project began in September 2008, that the city is looking to have the work completed in August and September, that police details at the site will be coordinated by the Police Department, that the city will have an onsite person during the project, and that attention will be paid to the proximity of the water lines. IN FAVOR: None. OPPOSED: None. Motion made and 2^nd that the GRANT OF RIGHT IN A WAY be APPROVED, AS AMENDED, with the conditions as follows: 1. That the recommendations of the Acting Superintendent of the Department of Public Works shall be adopted as conditions of the Grant of Right in a Way, all in favor 9-0.

Presented to the Mayor: August 5, 2010                s/Scott D. Galvin August 5, 2010

 

*************************

On the petition by Alderman DiTucci relative to the structure located at 19 Day Circle, having been declared a public nuisance, for the purposes of adopting an Order prescribing the disposition, alteration or regulation of the property. PUBLIC HEARING OPENED. A communication dated August 2, 2010 with attachments was received from Mark LaLumiere, Building Inspector as follows:

 

Re: 19 Day Circle

 

On 5/19/10 I made a site visit to 19 Day Circle to investigate a complaint regarding an unsecured in-ground swimming pool. The property is vacant and overgrown. The fence which serves as the enclosure for the pool was un-locked and propped open. The pool is covered, however the cover is ripped and an area of the cover has fallen into the pool. The overall condition of the pool and surrounding area is unkempt. The enclosure surrounding the pool needs maintenance and at a minimum must be brought into compliance with the Massachusetts State Building Code 780 CMR 421.10 – private swimming pools. Overall the property appears to be abandoned, with over grown shrubs and landscaping. The swimming pool enclosure needs to be maintained and monitored to be sure that it remains secure.

 

On 7/29/10 another inspection of 19 Day Circle was conducted. I have been visiting the site on weekly basis, prior to this inspection. The following are a list of Building Code violations that must be addressed:

 

The in-ground swimming pool must meet the minimum safety requirements for a pool enclosure as required by 780 CMR 120.M, specifically the enclosure shall have:

 

• No openings that would allow a 4” diameter sphere to pass through it.
• Access gates shall open away from the pool area shall be self closing and self latching.
• The enclosure must be maintained.

 

Per 780 CMR 5311, the front stair is part of the required means of egress from the structure and as such it must be maintained free of obstructions. Currently the path is blocked by the overgrown shrubs.

 

Alderman DiTucci stated that the property continues to deteriorate, that the City Solicitor recommended a conservative approach with a particular set of issues and a time frame being established, that she wants to be certain that all steps taken are legal, that she wants whatever action taken to be legal and defensible, that the city will have to do the work and place a lien on the property for the cost of doing so. Mark LaLumiere, Building Inspector stated that he has passed the locus on a weekly basis, that no work has been conducted on the locus, that the swimming pool is the greatest concern, that access to the house must be improved, that the lock on the gate is not sufficient, that there has been activity of people being at the house, that there are signs of access at the house, that the propane tanks and nitrous oxide tanks in the back yard should be cleaned up, that the landscape should be maintained and the trash cleaned, that the property is not registered as a foreclosed property under the ordinance, that the pool is full with water to the top, that the pool is the biggest safety issue, that the city could give a five day notice to repair with a provision that within 24 hours the pool be drained, that the owner must be given notice, and that the order can say that the pool be empty within 24 hours and the other items completed within five days. Thomas Quinn, Acting Superintendent of Department of Public Works stated that he recommends that if the Department of Public Works or the Fire Department drains the pool that a police detail be on site. Alderman Gately stated that the pool should be drained immediately, that the pool should be drained within the next 48 hours, and that the pool can be drained as a public safety issue. Alderman Raymond stated that public safety issues can be resolved quickly and that the City Solicitor can be consulted. Alderman Drapeau stated that the delay following the prior Order declaring the property a nuisance was because a list of action was not included. Alderman Anderson stated that there have been a few tragedies this summer involving pools and action should be taken to remedy the pool issue as soon as possible. IN FAVOR: Elaine Dougherty, 24 Day Circle stated that there is an attorney who is aware of the condition of the property, that something must be done, and that they are playing games with the city. Patrice Trodella, 21 Day Circle stated that the swimming pool is an accident waiting to happen, that the pool should be drained this week, that this property may affect her ability to insure her home, and that fines should be imposed on the property owner. Ronald Dougherty, 24 Day Circle stated that the house has been vacant for two years, that the pool has been neglected for two years, that the pool is a public nuisance, that something needs to be done, and that the city has been working on this issue since March 2010. Raymond Domenici, 20 Day Circle stated that the frustration level in the neighborhood is high with regards to this issue. Motion made and 2^nd that the public hearing be closed, all in favor, 9-0. Motion made and 2^nd that an Order enter that within five days from receipt of the notice the landowner of 19 Day Circle shall 1. Secure the gate, 2. Repair the fence, 3. Repair the pool cover, 4. Remove all inflammable and combustible materials from the shed and yard, 5. Secure the shed, 6. Secure the crawl space, 7. Clean the trash, 8. Remove the growth and shrubbery from the front, and that within twenty-four hours 1. Drain the pool and remove all water, and 2. That a police presence be on site when the fire department drains the pool, all in favor, 9-0.

Presented to the Mayor: August 5, 2010                s/Scott D. Galvin August 5, 2010

 

*************************

On the petition to determine the need for repairs of that portion of a private way traversing from Russell Street to Lexington Street and shown on Assessors Map 65 as a forty (40) foot right of way. PUBLIC HEARING OPENED. A communication dated July 30, 2010 with attachments was received as follows:

 

Subject: Roadway Improvements; unnamed access road at Four Corners

 

This letter is in regards to the deplorable condition of the access road located between Lexington Street and Russell Street. The City of Woburn holds not title to the property, it is privately owned by 3 separate businesses that over the past few years have not assisted in any payment to the upgrade of this roadway.

 

The roadways infrastructure is terrible, and has become a safety concern to drivers looking to travel down the road. Some potholes measure up to ten feet wide and nearly a foot deep, causing numerous drivers to have their cars damaged and contact the DPW to help assist in payment for the repairs.

 

The DPW and Engineering Department has been dealing with this issue for several years and is requesting that improvements may be done to the roadway in order to allow citizens a safe route to travel down without fear of damage to their vehicle. This roadway is in urgent need of repair and it is in the City’s best interest to proceed with improvements.

 

If you have any questions or comments please feel free to contact me at your convenience.

 

Thank you very much,

s/Thomas C. Quinn, Acting Superintendent

Department of Public Works

 

A copy of a communication dated July 27, 2010 to Thomas Quinn, DPW Superintendent was received from John E. Corey Jr., PE as follows:

 

Subject: NStar – Proposed Work on Main Street

 

At your request, the engineering department has reviewed a plan for the installation of electrical manholes and conduits along Main Street, between Walnut Street and Campbell Street.

 

The proposed improvements in some areas would conflict with the year 5 Cleaning and Lining contract in that some of the proposed conduits are adjacent to the 16” water main along the easterly sideline of Main Street. There is insufficient room to install the new gate valves at Walnut Street, Everett Street, Union Street and Campbell Street. We recommend that all new conduits and manholes be placed in the available space between the existing electric service and the sewer in the center of the street. In no case should the proposed conduits, concrete encasement and appurtenances be within 3 feet of the existing water main, such that there will be sufficient space for the new 16 inch gate valves, tees and cleaning and lining pits.

We trust the foregoing information is sufficient for your needs. Should you have any questions or comments, please do not hesitate to contact this office.

 

Alderman Drapeau stated that the street is in need of repair, that some legal issues have been raised within the last 24 hours that will have to be addressed before action can be taken, that some surveying must be conducted on the locus, that the ordinance is written that the road be repaired, that where the road is located is up for discussion, that the city cannot force a high level of repair, that the owners have been notified of this matter, and that this matter can be resolved in committee. Thomas Quinn, Acting Superintendent, Department of Public Works stated that the bank property has infringed on the DeMoulas property with their island, that this way was access to the bowling alley when it was there, that people have continued to use that way but the actual way is off from the current layout, that it would cost approximately $83,000.00 to completely repair the roadway, and that the roadway is forty feet off from where it should be. Superintendent Quinn offered a plan entitled “Proposed Pavement Plan” dated July 2010 prepared by the City of Woburn Engineering Department for the City Council to review. Motion made and 2^nd that the document be received and made part of the record, all in favor, 9-0. Alderman Mercer-Bruen stated that she wants all property owners notified of the meeting and to hear why they have not taken care of the roadway, that the property is private property, that the owners should post signs that state “private property pass at your own risk”, that this is a private road, that the work to repair the road should be completed before it is turned over to the city and after which it will become a Chapter 90 road, and that the matter should not be handled in the Committee Room but in the Committee as a Whole in the Council Chamber. Alderman Gately stated that the cost to build out the road would likely be double $83,000.00. IN FAVOR: None. OPPOSED: None. Motion made and 2^nd that the PUBLIC HEARING be CONTINUED TO THE REGULAR MEETING OF THE CITY COUNCIL ON SEPTEMBER 7, 2010 AND THAT THE MATTER BE REFERRED TO THE COMMITTEE ON MUNICIPAL LANDS, all in favor 9-0.

Motion made and 2^nd that the document be received and made part of the record, 8 in favor, 0 opposed, 1 absent (Haggerty absent). Alderman Drapeau asked for those in the public gallery of the Council Chamber to raise their hand if they supported the petition. Approximately forty people raised their hands in response. Alderman Mercer-Bruen asked whether there was a guarantee that the parish would not close if the project moves forward, and stated that she wants a guarantee that the parish will receive the money for the community center, that when the Senior Housing Overlay District was adopted multifamily residences or condominiums were not desired, and that she does not support multifamily residences or condominiums now. Rev. Richard Shmaruk, 60 Elm Street stated that he is the Pastor of St. Anthony’s Parish, that there is no guarantee that the parish will not close, that parish closings or openings depend on many factors, that when the financial stability of a parish is not good there could be a change, that the parish located on this locus over 70 years ago, that they are looking to stabilize the parish and also to stabilize the neighborhood, that there has been no discussion at the Archdiocese relative to closing the parish, and that he has not heard a voice from the parish opposed to this plan. Alderman Drapeau stated that there are large apartment projects and traffic in the west side of Woburn, that the apartment traffic does not affect the traffic, that the city has a lot of traffic because it is a central location intersected by Route 93 and Route 95/128, that the traffic and location affects the city not an apartment complex, and that there will be additional meetings on this as the design progresses. Alderman Gately stated that there has to be residential growth potential in the city, and that if new schools and a library expansion are to be built then there has to be residential growth to do so.

Rick McLaughlin stated that he owns 844-846 Main Street, that the traffic is backed up in that area, that turning traffic in the area will cause further issues, and that the third land would likely require further takings to make it run along that whole section of Main Street.

You may recall this was required as a condition of the Special Permit which was granted to the property owner and Hess Corporation by vote of the

City Council in December 2008. Attached is a final draft of the deed and accompanying Plan, which is in accord with the prior vote of the Council in connection with the Special Permit.

 

I believe only one reading is required, should you be inclined to vote on this matter at your August 3^rd meeting.

 

Thank you for your courtesy.

 

Sincerely, s/John D. McElhiney

Attached thereto was the following Order:

 

ORDERED     That the Mayor be and is hereby authorized to accept, on behalf of the

City of Woburn, the grant of certain property at 306 Montvale Avenue,

from Robert McSheffrey, Trustee of 306 Montvale Avenue Realty Trust, said land containing approximately 1,587 square feet, and being shown on Plan dated December 3, 2009, said parcel of land to be deeded to the City in compliance with a condition of a certain Special Permit issued to the Grantor and Hess Corporation, on December 26, 2008.

 

s/Alderman Mercer-Bruen

 

Motion made and 2^nd that the matter be received, all in favor, 9-0. Motion made and 2^nd that ORDER be ADOPTED, all in favor, 9-0.

Re: Dole and Bailey, Inc., 16 Conn Street, Woburn, Massachusetts

 

Dear Mr. Campbell:

 

Please be advised that I represent Dole & Bailey, Inc. (“Dole & Bailey”) in connection with its Landowner’s Decision and Notice of Special Permit issued by the City Clerk on October 23, 2008, (the “Special Permit”). As a result of current economic conditions that build out of the accessory retail area has not yet commenced.

 

Therefore, on behalf of the Petitioner, I respectfully request that the City Council extend the time period for the Petitioner to exercise its rights under the Special Permit for an additional two (2) year period to October 23, 2012.

 

Should you need any further information, please do not hesitate to contact me. Thank you.

 

Very truly yours, s/Joseph R. Tarby III

 

Motion made and 2^nd that the SPECIAL PERMIT ISSUED OCTOBER 23, 2008 TO DOLE & BAILEY, INC. be EXTENDED UP TO AND INCLUDING OCTOBER 23,

2012, all in favor, 9-0.

A communication dated July 30, 2010 with attachments was received from Joseph R. Tarby III, Murtha Cullina LLP, 600 Unicorn Park Drive, Woburn as follows:

 

Re:      Modification to Landowner’s Decision and Notice of Special Permit issued to Self Storage Group LLC

 

Dear Mr. Campbell:

 

Please be advised that this office represent Self Storage Group, LLC (hereafter “SSG”).

On May 27, 2010 the City Clerk’s Office issued two (2) Landowner’s Decision and Notice of Special Permit to Town Fair Centers of Massachusetts LLC (hereafter the “TFT Special Permit”).

Condition 13c. of the TFT Special Permit states that said Special Permit is contingent upon the City Council modifying the Landowner’s Decision and Notice of Special Permit dated July 31, 2009 issued to SSG (the “SSG Special Permit”) to restrict all entering and exiting traffic to and from Washington Street to right turns into and right turns out of the site.  In addition, said modification shall prohibit left turns into and left turns out of the site to and from Washington Street.

Therefore, on behalf of the SSG, I respectfully request that Condition Number 13 of

SSG’s Special Permit (copy enclosed) be amended by deleting the first sentence in said Condition 13 which states “That Traffic exiting the site shall be restricted to right turn only” and replacing with:

“That traffic entering and exiting the site shall be restricted to right turns only to and from Washington Street.  In addition, left turns entering and exiting the site to and from Washington Street shall be prohibited.”

As you may recall during the public hearing on the TFT Special Permit the City Council agreed it would handle this request as a minor modification to the SSG Special Permit.

Due to the fact that a closing on the property to be purchased by TFT is scheduled for August 2010, I respectfully request that you take action on this request at the City Council meeting scheduled for August 3, 2010.

Thank you.

Very truly yours, s/ Joseph R. Tarby III

 

Alderman Mercer-Bruen stated that when the Town Fair Tire special permit was approved there was agreement that there would be a restriction on vehicle turning movement entering and exiting the locus, and that this will confirm that restriction. Motion made and 2^nd that the MODIFICATION OF THE SPECIAL PERMIT be APPROVED, all in favor, 9-0.
