South Yarmouth, Massachusetts 02664 617-398-2212 To:Site Plan Review Team and The Board of Appeals for The Green/Oak Fa-rbour, Inc. , Kings Way, Yarmouth From: Deputy Chief William A. Greene, Jr. Subject: Comments for July 1 Site Plan Review Date: July 1, 1986 I have met with Norman Grossman, David Oman and several project reps for The Green Company. Please find enclosed, copies of correspondence received by the Yarmouth Fire Department dated June 2 and June 6, in regard to the proposed Phase I construction. The Yarmouth Fire Department has made several requests of The Green Company and in regard to this phase only, we are most pleased to accept the additional fire protection and safety precautions that have been put forth, and feel that the requirement for rear access to the buildings in Phase I can be deleted. We have requested that serious consideration be given to a total sprinkler system in the 24—unit garden apartment building and it is our understanding that The Green Company will pursue this area. We will waive no requirements of the State Building Code, Fire Code, or Local Codes and Rulings in regard to other phases of construction. wag/ms Enclosures The Green Company, Inc. 70 East Falmouth Highway East Falmouth, Massachusetts 02536 617)548-8823 June 6, 1986 Deputy Chief, William Greene Yarmouth Fire Department Old Main Street S. Yarmouth, MA 02664 Dear Bill: In response to our discussion at a meeting on June 5th, relative to a building permit requirement about supplying water and a hydrant for our proposed construction, we will do the following. 1. We would make accessible, for your fire fighting equipment, a driveable access area, from the end of Canterbury Road to our proposed first phase to be used during the time it takes to install the required 12" watermain and hydrants. 2. We will construct Oak Harbour Circle from its present termination to Phase I, but cutting and filling that portion of the road to subgrade and making it passable. 3. We will start the installation of the 12" watermain from its termination on Oak Harbour Circle to the entrance road for Phase I, as soon as it is approved. 4. We will install the required hydrants on the proposed 12" main, installing at least one (1) hydrant at the entrance of our proposed driveway. It is my best estimate, at this time, that we can subgrade and make passable Oak Harbour Circle, and install the watermains required in a timeframe not to exceed two months from the time I get permission from the regulatory agencies in The Town of Yarmouth. If this meets with your approval, I would appreciate it if you would notify the proper authorities, in writing, of your approval of the above mentioned conditions. Very truly yours, Norman Grossman Vice President, Planning and Engineering NG:jc r The Green Company, Inc. 70 East Falmouth Highway East Falmouth, Massachusetts 02536 617)548-8823 June 2, 1986 Deputy Chief, William Greene Yarmouth Fire Department Old Main Street S.

It is understood that additional information will be submitted with more detail, as soon as possible, either by letter or on plans to be submitted. It was further understood that because of the above agreed upon additional fire protection (and other items on the enclosed list), you would prepare a letter to be submitted to the Yarmouth ZBA requesting they eliminate from the special permit, item #8, the requirement that emergency access be available to the rears of all the proposed buildings. Thank you for your consideration and assistance in this matter. Very truly your, Norman Grossman, P.E., R.L.S.

Said Extant Decision granted a Special Permit for open space village development , and related variances , for a project , on a parcel of land containing approximately 194 acres on the north side of Route 6A, known and hereinafter referred to as the Oak Harbour premises , ( the "Premises" ) to comprise not more than 750 dwelling units , garage-sto •. age sheds , a community center complex, a gate house, and additional specified maintenance, utility, service, recreational , h accessory and other facilities and Features , all upon the terms and conditions set forth in said Extant Decision .

The Extant Decision made all necessary findings , and granted the special permit and variances , with respect to the Project described and defined in the proposal and plans submitted by the original petitioner , and made specific reference to such plans in a number of respects , including : a) the allocation of particular lots to purposes of dwelling units , open space, sewage treatment facilities , and various other service facilities ; and (b) the allocation of ground coverage areas and building height to the community center complex of interconnected buildings and various other service facilities . The Extant Decision provides , however , that : "particular locations of buildings shown on the plan are not intended to fix absolutely the eventual siting or arrangement or lay-out of buildings or structures ; " . . . and consequer.cly that the Board imposes "the condition that all buildings as eventually sited on the various lots must comply with the provisions of paragraph 4-C [of Section 18 : 07 of the applicable zoning by-law] . . . " ; and also provides that the Board makes : "no findings or decision as to the particular lots or the order in which particular lots may be selected and dedicated by the Petitioner as the required open space under paragraph 4-F of the By Law, " and that " This requirement is one of many on-going provisions that will be applicable to the project as it progresses and with which the Developer will have to comply.
