Sheldon (Vice Chairman) read the notice as follows: The Board of Appeals will hold a public hearing on the petition of THE 115 KENDALL CORPORATION AND TEKTRONIX, INC. for a site plan review and approval for a special permit pursuant to Section 13 and related subsections of the zoning by-law, and to make a finding and determination that the pro- posed placement of buildings, major topographic changes, provisions for waste disposal, surface and ground water drainage, erosion control, parking areas, loading areas, maneuvering areas, driveways, the location of inter- sections of driveways and streets will constitute a suitable development and will not result in substantial detriment to the neighborhood. The proposed use of the building is office and research and development. The location of the property is at the corner of HARTWELL AVENUE and BEDFORD STREET, contain- ing approximately five acres of land. The hearing will be held TUESDAY, MAY 7, 1974 in the Town Office Building at 8:00 P.M. This notice was published in the Lexington Minute -Man and people notified as required by law. Present and acting on this petition were: George C. Sheldon, Acting Chairman George P. Wadsworth Robert M. Gary Haskell W. Reed Robert Cataldo Frederick J. Conroy, Attorney, represented the petitioners, who had pro- vided the following plans: I. Site Plans for Lot 1, by Miller and Nylander, dated 3/25/74 as follows: 1. PL -1, showing proposed contours. 2. PL -2, showing existing & proposed contours. II. Plans entitled "Proposed Office Building Bedford St. & Hartwell Ave." by Fred Lenox AIA & Associates: 1. Elevations, dated March 18, 1974. 2. First Floor Plan dated March 12 and 18, 1974. 3. Second Floor Plan, dated March 12 and 18, 1974. Two copies of these plans were presented to the Planning Board on March 29, 1974 for their recommendations as required under Section 13 of the Lexington zoning by-law. Mr. Conroy explained that the proposed building would be situated on approximately 5 acres, located on the corner of Hartwell Avenue and Bedford Street. The parcel is part of a 13 acre parcel owned by Mr. Michael Colan- gelo of The 115 Kendall Corporation. The 5 acres is under agreement for sale to Tektronix Corp. for construction of the building. May 7, 1974 (continued) page 2 Mr. Conroy reviewed former permits granted by the Board, including the ' division of the 13 acres into 4 lots, one of which would have been on the cor- ner of Hartwell Avenue and Bedford St. and would have had 4.27 acres. Since then Tektronix has requested the larger 5+ acres. This parcel is zoned CH, hotel, office and research park. He referred to a letter dated April 4, 1974 from the Town Engineer, which listed several comments for consideration. He stated that The 115 Kendall Corporation had responed to all of them and corrections had been made on plans submitted with their letter dated April 30, 1974. The plans received were the same as those submitted earlier except that the engineering data requested had been added to the plans. Also present at this hearing were; Mr. Fred Lenox, Architect, who pre- pared the plans; a representative of the Tektronix, Inc., Richard Keshian, Mass. Ave., Arlington (Chairman of the Board of Appeals, Arlington); and Mr. Nylander, who prepared the engineering and survey data required. Tektronix, Inc. would occupy the building when it is completed. A letter was received from the Planning Board; Dear Mr. Nickerson: The Planning Board has reviewed the plans of the 115 Kendall Corporation development, and subject to the following recommendations, believes that this development will not result in detriment to the neighborhood, in accord- ance with Section 13 of the Town of Lexington By -Laws. 1. That the circular driveway be eliminated at the front of the building. The entrance to this driveway is too close to the intersection and would interfere with turning movements from Hartwell Avenue onto Bedford Street. This intersection is now operating at or near capacity during peak traffic hours. Any additional traffic movements at this location would tend to create a serious traffic problem. The Traffic Safety Committee has gone on record as opposing any curb cuts at this location. This area experienced the highest traffic accident rate in the Town of Lexington for the year 1973. 2. We recommend that the parking area be laid out with 10' x 20' parking stalls and 23' aisles. 3. All utilities must conform to Town of Lexington Standards and specifica- tions. Sincerely, LEXINGTON PLANNING BOARD /s/ Eric T. Clarke, Chairman Letters from the Engineering Department listed several comments and concerns about the plans for this project. (See letter dated April 4, 1974 and letter dated 4/18/74 attached to Selectmen's letter of May 7.) Mr. Conroy stated that they had complied with all the engineering and Planning Board requirements in respect to this lot. He said that Hinchey Rd. would not be touched. He stated that he had a certificate of conditions from the Conservation Commission taking care of drainage. John Brucchi, Arthur Carota and Henry Siekman expressed their concerns. 1 May 7, 1974 (continued) Page 3 A letter dated May 7 was received from the Selectmen requesting that the Board of Appeals delay granting approval of a permit because there were too many unanswered questions regarding the development of the property. All parties concerned agreed to a continuance Notices were mailed to all who had received notices Later it was agreed to continue it to May 28, 1974 been notified of the hearing for May 7 and May 21 ued hearing date of May 28, 1974.

All who had were notified of the contin- On May 28, 1974 the Board gave further consideration to the subject of the petition, the evidence presented by the petitioner and others in open public meeting. Mr. Conroy represented the petitioner. Mr. Lenox, Mr. Colangelo, Mr. Keshian, Mr. Nylander and Mr. Ray Cone, chief architect for Tektronix, were all present. The same Board members were present: G.C.Sheldon, G.P.Wadsworth, R.M.Gary, H.W.Reed and Robert Cataldo. Another letter was received from the Town Engineer (dated May 24, 1974) with five comments for the Board's consideration. Mr. Conroy stated that all requirements would be complied with including the assumption of any extra cost to the town in making sewer and water connections. The Board of Selectmen wrote a letter to the Board of Appeals dated May ' 28, 1974 stating that the questions were still unresolved and they feel that the Town would be better served if the petition were withdrawn in order to allow sufficient time for the development of an overall plan for the complete area and the settlement of the Hinchey Road question. As a result of all the above the Board voted in favor of the following findings: Since the Hinchey Road problem has not been legally resolved and would be a significant factor in the development of the total area, in the Board's opinion, it would be unwise to approve the first lot in the development with- out proper planning for the additional lots. Therefore, in the opinion of the Board, the plan presented was not a sound plan. The site plan review and find- ing and determination showed that it might tend to impair the status of the neighborhood. A satisfactory plan should be submitted for the entire area owned by the applicant in order to be certain that Hinchey Rd. and problems of access and water and sewer service connections are satisfactorily solved. The Board voted unanimously to give the petitioner an opportunity to with- draw the petition. If the petitioner fails to withdraw the petition it is denied. (Only Mr. Sheldon expressed a willingness to grant the petition.) The Board attached the latest letters from the Board of Selectmen and the Town En- gineer to the record in the file folder. On May 30, 1974 the petition was withdrawn by The 115 Kendall Corporation and Tektronix, Inc., by their attorney, Frederick J. Conroy, by letter. Evelyn F. Cole, Clerk FREDERICK T1.

Two regular and three associate members of the Board of Appeals were present at the hearing. A certificate of notice of the hearing and sub- sequent hearings are hereto annexed. At the May 7, 1974 hearing evidence was offered on behalf of the petitioner tending to show: that the 115 Kendall Corporation and Tektronix, Inc. requested a site plan review and approval for a special permit pursuant to Section 13 and related ; subsections of the zoning by-law, and to make a finding and determination that the proposed placement of buildings, major topographic changes, provi- sions for waste disposal, surface and ground water drainage, erosion control, parking areas, loading areas, maneuvering areas, driveways, the location of intersections of driveways and streets will constitute a suitable develop- ment and will not result in substantial detriment to the neighborhood.

CHAIRMAN - FRED C. BAILEY ALFRED S. BUSH SANBORN C. BROWN MARGERY M. BA"N May 28, 1974 Mr. George C. Sheldon Acting Chairman Board of Appeals Lexington, Massachusetts Dear Mr. Sheldon: The Board of Selectmen feels that the opinions contained in our letter of May 16, 1974 are still valid. The questions are still unresolved and we feel the Town would be better served if the petition were withdrawn in order to allow sufficient time for the development of an overall plan for the complete area and the settlement of the Hinchey Road question. Very truly yours, BOARD OF SELECTMEN Al Kenney Chairman AFK:em Attachment i 1 i • 1 t t May 24, 1974 i Hoard of Appeals Town Office Building Lexington, Massachusetts 02173 Re: 115 Kendall Corporation Hartwell Avenue & Bedford Street Gentlemen: I We have reviewed the site plans for the subject project and • offer the following comments for your review and consideration in this matter. 1. This revision still shows proposed sewer and water ser- vices for lot I coming from proposed sewer and water main exten- sions in Hartwell Avenue. Since this involves expansion of the Towns' sewer and water utility network in the amount of approxi- mately $50,000, it would seem logical that the overall develop- ment picture should be presented in order that the Board of Public' Works (Selectmen) may make sound and rational decisions as to how their system can best be expanded. Once this is accomplished, the logistics of financing and constructing these utilities can be discussed between the developer and the Board. 2. The plans indicate that the public footpath on Hartwell Avenue that leads to Hinchey Road, will be altered to the point where there will be a 33% grade dropping from Hinchey Road to the driveway then climbing back to existing ground on the other side of the drive, also at 33% grade. We believe this gradient to be objectionable. 3. The slope on the 12" R.C. drain leading from the catch basin on the southwest side of the parking lot is too flat. Ab- solute minimum slope for 12" pipe should be .005 in order to maintain self cleaning velocities. 4. The special manhole leading to the retention pond shows 4—I8" pipes in plan view yet the details for both the manhole and the headwall show 4 - 22" x 13" metal arch pipes. This should be clarified. ers • -� is A JOHN'J. McSWEENEV. Dirremr.
