MEMORANDUM
Engineering Division
November 5,2015
SP-597: Car Connection -820 Springfield Street
Per your request, we have reviewed the Site Plan entitled "Agawam Tire and Auto -D.B.A. The Car
Connection -Used Car Amendment -Site Plan; 820 Springfield Street, Agawam, MA; Prepared by Nicholas
J. Lapointe, P.E.; Dated: 6-11-2015 and we have the following comment:
1. Engineering highly recommends that the curb cut located on the south west c:omcr of the
property be closed up due to its proximity to the intersection with Springfield Street. The
asphalt island is actually located about 40 feet further to the east than what is shown on the
plan (see attached photo). If the curbing is extended as shown on the attached sketch, the
asphalt islllDd could then be removed resulting in a much more safe aooesspoint into and out
of the site.
Engineering reserves the right to make additional comments as new information is submitted. If you have
any questions please do not hesitate to contact this division.
Sincerely,
~~-
Town Engineer

Dear Counsel and Planning Board,
My name is Paul Lapointe owner of Agawam Tire and Auto Service center Inc and The Car Connection
located at 820 Springfield ST Feeding Hills rna 01030. I am writing you to request an increase of 10 cars
to our class 2 used car license we have maintained for many years. This addition will allow us to better
serve our customer base while abiding by our towns licensing rules and regulations. Please find
attached a plot plan showing the space that will allow us to accommodate this addition to our license.
The space proposed was the original space we used some years ago for the same purpose of used car
sales. Please support this addition so we can better serve our customers for Agawam and surrounding
towns.
