Re:

Narrative – Disability Assistance & Vocational Education, Inc.

Dear Chair Luttrell and Members of the Planning Board,
I represent Disability Assistance & Vocational Education, Inc. (the “Applicant”) and
provide this narrative in support of its Major Site Plan Application for the proposed use of property
located at 352 Turnpike Road in Southborough, Massachusetts (the “Property”). The Applicant is
a Massachusetts corporation, currently seeking a 501(c)(3) designation, organized with the mission
of advancing opportunities for individuals with disabilities and those seeking to develop trade
skills through a combination of disability assistance, vocational education, and supportive housing
services. The organization’s programs are designed to help participants achieve greater
independence, self-sufficiency, and long-term employability through structured training,
counseling, and life skills development.
As part of this application, the Applicant proposes to convert approximately 17,430 square
feet of existing office space on the third floor of the Property into a specialized educational facility
dedicated to serving disabled individuals and persons pursuing careers in the skilled trades. The
facility will be designed to accommodate classrooms, training areas, counseling offices, and
supportive service spaces that promote educational advancement and personal growth. The
proposed school will focus on life coaching, job readiness, and reentry into the workforce, while
also providing ancillary housing support for participants who may require temporary or transitional
accommodation as part of their individualized programs. The Applicant proposes no exterior work.
BACKGROUND
As part of this application, the Applicant wishes to provide background regarding the
inspiration and mission behind this initiative, which are closely tied to the personal history of
David Ferris (“Mr. Ferris”), founder of the Ferris Family Foundation and President of the
Applicant.
Mr. Ferris is a lifelong Southborough resident who attended Neary, Trottier, and Algonquin
Regional High School. He was diagnosed with dyslexia at a young age, at a time when learning

Page 64 of 90

Page 2 of 8
disabilities were far less understood and less supported within the public school system. His
experiences navigating traditional educational pathways—together with the challenges faced by
close family members, including an aunt and uncle with significant disabilities—have shaped his
longstanding commitment to assisting individuals with learning and functional impairments, many
of which are not readily apparent to the broader community.
For many years, Mr. Ferris has advanced this mission through the Ferris Family
Foundation, which focuses on supporting young people with learning differences and related
disabilities. The proposed nonprofit program—Disability Assistance & Vocational Education, Inc.
(“DAVE Living”)—is a natural extension of that work. It has been developed to provide
individuals with disabilities, learning challenges, or life-circumstance-based barriers a pathway
toward independence, workforce participation, and long-term self-sufficiency.
The Applicant seeks to address a significant gap that exists for individuals who do not
thrive in traditional academic or job-training settings. Many disabilities—particularly cognitive,
learning-based, processing-related, or social-emotional—are not outwardly visible. As a result,
many people who struggle quietly receive limited support, direction, and access to realistic
vocational pathways. The proposed program is specifically structured to serve this population
through a welcoming, gender-inclusive, skills-focused environment.
ZONING
The Property is situated within the Industrial Park (“IP”) Zoning District of the Town of
Southborough. While the IP District does not expressly permit the Applicant’s proposed
educational use, either by right or by special permit, the proposed project is protected under the
provisions of the so-called Dover Amendment, codified at G.L. c. 40A, § 3. The Dover
Amendment is a longstanding Massachusetts statute that serves to absolve religious, educational,
and agricultural institutions from unduly restrictive local zoning regulations that would otherwise
inhibit the exercise of their core purposes. In essence, it ensures that municipalities may not
prohibit or unreasonably regulate land uses that are religious or educational in nature, even where
such uses are not otherwise allowed within a given zoning district.
Massachusetts courts have consistently interpreted the term “education” within the
meaning of the Dover Amendment in a broad and inclusive manner. As articulated by the Supreme
Judicial Court, “education” is not confined to traditional academic instruction or conventional
classroom settings. Rather, it encompasses “the process of developing and training the powers and
capabilities of human beings” and “preparing persons for activity and usefulness in life.” McLean
Hospital Corp. v. Town of Lincoln, 483 Mass. 215, 220 (2019) (quoting Mount Hermon Boys’
School v. Gill, 145 Mass. 139, 146 (1887), and Fitchburg Housing Authority v. Board of Zoning
Appeals of Fitchburg, 380 Mass. 869, 875 (1980)). The courts have reaffirmed that educational
uses extend beyond traditional schools to include programs that foster mental, physical, and
vocational development in a structured and purposeful environment. See also Regis College v.
Weston, 462 Mass. 280, 285 (2012).

Site Plan Narrative – Disability Assistance & Vocational Education, Inc.
December 26, 2025
Page 3 of 8
The Applicant’s proposed use aligns directly with these well-established principles. The
Applicant’s mission to provide disability assistance and vocational training through structured
instruction, counseling, and life-skills development constitutes a bona fide educational activity as
contemplated by the Dover Amendment. The proposed facility will not merely offer occupational
training, but will also cultivate participants’ cognitive, social, and functional abilities in a manner
designed to enhance their independence and participation in society. Accordingly, the Applicant’s
use falls squarely within the educational protections afforded by G.L. c. 40A, § 3, and must
therefore be permitted notwithstanding the underlying zoning restrictions of the IP Zoning District.
SITE PLAN REVIEW
Pursuant to Southborough Zoning Bylaw § 174-10.A(3), any change in use or the
reactivation of a facility that has not been in active use for a period of two years requires site plan
review by the Planning Board. In this instance, the Applicant is proposing a change in use from a
general office use to a private educational facility—a transition that, under the plain language of
the Bylaw, triggers the site plan review process. Accordingly, the Applicant submits this Major
Site Plan Application to facilitate the Board’s review of the proposed conversion and associated
improvements.
However, because the proposed use is a Dover Amendment–protected educational use, the
Planning Board’s authority during the site plan review process is necessarily limited. G.L. c. 40A,
§ 3, expressly restricts local boards from applying zoning or site plan criteria in a manner that
would substantially inhibit or nullify the proposed educational use. Rather, the Board’s review
must be confined to the imposition of “reasonable regulations concerning the bulk and height of
structures and determining yard sizes, lot area, setbacks, open space, parking and building
coverage requirements.” G.L. c. 40A, § 3, second paragraph. These limited areas of review are
intended to ensure that municipal oversight focuses on legitimate planning and public safety
concerns without infringing upon the Applicant’s protected educational mission.
In this case, the proposed use will occupy existing space within a fully constructed and
previously approved building. As such, most dimensional considerations—such as building height,
massing, lot area, yard setbacks, open space, and building coverage—have already been
established, in compliance with the Southborough Zoning Bylaw, and are not subject to
modification under this application. The physical footprint of the structure and its relationship to
the site will remain unchanged. Consequently, there is no need for the Planning Board to revisit
those elements as part of its review.
The appropriate scope of the Board’s review, therefore, is limited to ensuring that the
proposed educational use is adequately supported by existing site infrastructure and that any
operational impacts are reasonably mitigated. Specifically, the Board may evaluate whether the
Property provides sufficient parking capacity to accommodate staff, students, and visitors, as well
as whether the septic system and related utilities are adequate to support the change in use. Beyond
these considerations, no further design or dimensional review is warranted or permissible under
the Dover Amendment framework.

PARKING
The Property contains a total of 327 existing parking spaces, which have historically
supported a mix of office and warehouse uses on the site. This existing supply of parking is more
than adequate to accommodate both the existing and proposed uses, even when applying the most
intensive parking standard contained within the Southborough Zoning Bylaw.
The following analysis provides a breakdown of existing and proposed uses, their
respective floor areas, and the number of parking spaces required under § 174-12.E of the
Southborough Zoning Bylaw. This comparative assessment demonstrates that the site remains
fully compliant with all applicable parking requirements following the proposed change in use.
Existing Uses
Office Use: The Property will maintain approximately 43,020 square feet of office space. Pursuant
to § 174-12.E(13) of the Zoning Bylaw, office uses are required to provide 3.5 parking spaces per
1,000 square feet of floor area.

Required parking: 43,020 sq. ft. ÷ 1,000 × 3.5 = 151 spaces

Warehouse Use: The Property also contains approximately 10,268 square feet of warehouse space.
Under § 174-12.E(10), warehouse uses are required to provide 1 parking space per 1,500 square
feet of floor area.

Required parking: 10,268 sq. ft. ÷ 1,500 = 7 spaces

Total existing use requirement: 158 spaces
Proposed Use
In addition to the existing office and warehouse uses, the Applicant proposes to repurpose
approximately 17,430 square feet of existing third-floor office space for an educational and
residential use consistent with its mission under the Dover Amendment. Because the Zoning
Bylaw does not explicitly list a parking requirement for a specialized educational facility of this
nature, the Applicant has analyzed parking demand under three applicable use categories for the
Planning Board’s consideration: (1) dwellings, (2) schools and colleges, and (3) other
nonresidential uses.
1. Dwellings:
The proposed project includes 17 one-bedroom units, 4 two-bedroom units, and 2 threebedroom units, intended as ancillary housing for program participants. Pursuant to § 174-12.E(1),
the Bylaw requires two spaces per dwelling unit containing one or two bedrooms, and three spaces
per dwelling unit containing three or more bedrooms.

Page 67 of 90

Southborough Planning Board
Site Plan Narrative – Disability Assistance & Vocational Education, Inc.
December 26, 2025
Page 5 of 8

(17 × 2) + (4 × 2) + (2 × 3) = 48 required spaces

2. Schools and Colleges:
At any given time, the Applicant anticipates serving 31 students with 9 teachers and staff
members. Under § 174-12.E(4), the parking requirement for schools and colleges is 1 space per
two students beyond secondary education, and not fewer than one space per teacher or staff
member.

(31 ÷ 2) + 9 = 25 required spaces

3. All Other Nonresidential Uses:
If the Board elects to apply the general standard for nonresidential uses, the proposed
17,430 square feet of space would require 3.5 parking spaces per 1,000 square feet, pursuant to §
174-12.E(13).

17,430 sq. ft. ÷ 1,000 × 3.5 = 62 required spaces

When applying the most intensive parking standard, the site would require no more than
220 parking spaces to remain compliant with the Bylaw. Given the existing supply of 327 spaces,
the Property exceeds the highest calculated demand by a margin of 107 parking spaces, or roughly
30% more than required.
This surplus ensures that the site can easily accommodate faculty, students, staff, residents,
and visitors without impacting on-site circulation or neighboring properties. Moreover, the
Applicant anticipates that the actual parking demand will be substantially lower than the theoretical
maximum, given that many program participants will reside on-site, will not commute daily, and
may rely on transportation provided by the organization.
Accordingly, the Applicant respectfully submits that the existing parking supply is more
than adequate to serve all proposed uses and that no modification to the parking layout or capacity
is necessary to support the Dover-protected educational use.

SEPTIC
The Property is currently served by an on-site subsurface sewage disposal system with a
design capacity of 4,800 gallons per day (gpd), as approved under Title 5 of the Massachusetts
Environmental Code (310 CMR 15.000). The system has historically supported a combination of
office and warehouse uses and is proposed to continue serving those uses alongside the Applicant’s
newly proposed Dover-protected educational use.
To evaluate compliance with Title 5 and to ensure the adequacy of the existing system, the
Applicant has prepared a detailed assessment of the current and projected wastewater generation
based on the Massachusetts Department of Environmental Protection (MassDEP) Design Flow
Guidelines contained in 310 CMR 15.203. The following analysis provides a breakdown of all
existing and proposed uses within the building and the corresponding design flow calculations.
Existing Uses and Flow Calculations
The building will contain approximately 34,847 square feet of office space, not including
common area space, distributed among several tenants. Pursuant to 310 CMR 15.203, Table 1, the
design flow for “office buildings” is 75 gallons per day per 1,000 square feet of floor area.
Therefore:

34.847 × 75 gpd = 2,613.53 gpd

Additionally, the Property includes a warehouse space, utilized by approximately nine (9)
employees. Under Title 5, “factory or warehouse buildings without cafeteria” are assigned a design
flow of 15 gpd per employee. Accordingly:

9 employees × 15 gpd = 135 gpd

The subtotal for all existing and ongoing uses is therefore:

2,613.53 gpd (office) + 135 gpd (warehouse) = 2,748.53 gpd

Proposed Educational and Residential Uses
The Applicant proposes to convert a portion of the third floor, totaling approximately
17,430 square feet, into a specialized educational facility providing life-skills instruction,
vocational training, and residential accommodations for individuals with disabilities. The
educational component includes up to 31 beds to support students who will reside on-site as part
of a structured, full-time program.
For the purposes of Title 5 compliance, this component is most appropriately categorized
under “Boarding Schools and Colleges” in accordance with 310 CMR 15.203(4), which specifies
a design flow of 65 gallons per person per day. Accordingly, the anticipated design flow for the
proposed educational/residential use is as follows:

Page 69 of 90

Southborough Planning Board
Site Plan Narrative – Disability Assistance & Vocational Education, Inc.
December 26, 2025
Page 7 of 8

31 residents × 65 gpd = 2,015 gpd

Total Flow and System Compliance
Combining the existing and proposed uses results in the following total design flow:
Use Type
Office (34,847 sq. ft.)
Warehouse (9 employees)
Educational/Residential (31 residents)
Total

Flow (gpd)
2613.53
135
2,015
4,763.53 gpd

The total projected flow of 4,763.53 gallons per day is within the system’s design capacity
of 4,800 gallons per day, leaving a small but sufficient margin for compliance.
Based on the above calculations, the existing on-site septic system has adequate capacity
to accommodate the combined wastewater generation from the existing office and warehouse
tenants and the proposed educational and residential use. The Applicant does not propose any
structural modifications to the existing septic system, as the projected total daily flow remains
within its approved capacity.
Furthermore, the anticipated wastewater characteristics associated with the proposed
educational use are comparable to, or less intensive than, standard residential or institutional uses
of similar scale. The Applicant will continue to ensure proper system maintenance, inspections,
and compliance with all Title 5 requirements to preserve the long-term performance of the system.
Accordingly, no increase in flow beyond the approved design limit is anticipated, and the
proposed use will not adversely affect the functionality or compliance status of the existing septic
infrastructure serving the Property.
CONCLUSION
In summary, the Applicant’s proposed conversion of existing office space at the Property
into a specialized educational and residential facility represents a thoughtful and mission-driven
adaptive reuse of an existing building within the IP Zoning District. The project fulfills the
Applicant’s nonprofit purpose of providing disability assistance, vocational education, and
supportive housing to individuals seeking to gain independence and practical skills for long-term
self-sufficiency. As a bona fide educational use under the Dover Amendment (G.L. c. 40A, § 3),
the proposed project is entitled to protection from local zoning prohibitions that would otherwise
restrict or unreasonably burden such uses.
The proposed change in use does not alter the footprint, massing, or exterior characteristics
of the existing building and will operate fully within the established site infrastructure.
Comprehensive review of parking, wastewater, and other site utilities confirms that the Property
is adequately equipped to support the proposed use without the need for expansion or structural

modification. The existing 327 parking spaces far exceed the 220 spaces required under the most
intensive parking standard, and the 4,800-gallon-per-day septic system has sufficient capacity to
accommodate the combined flows from all existing and proposed uses.
The Applicant respectfully submits that the proposed project not only complies with the
reasonable parameters of local site plan review but also advances a valuable public purpose
consistent with the spirit and intent of the Dover Amendment and the Town’s broader commitment
to inclusivity and education. The Applicant therefore requests that the Planning Board approve its
Major Site Plan Application.
Sincerely,

George T. Bahnan, Esq.
Assistant General Counsel

Southborough §174-9 Special Permit Requirements H (1) §174-2 Definitions, and §1748.2 Districts
Delete the current §174-9 Special Permit Requirements H (1) an replace with the
following:
§174-9 Special Permit Requirements H (1)
Independent, Multifamily housing for seniors (55+) is allowed by special permit per the
Schedule of Use Regulations, § 174-8.
(1) The Zoning Board of Appeals shall grant a special permit for Independent, Multifamily
housing for seniors (55+) housing only after considering the following criteria:
(a) No development shall exceed an average per site of a maximum six units per contiguous
acre exclusive of 80% of wetlands.
(b) The units shall have an exterior design that is consistent with the styles of the
surrounding residential neighborhoods and the Town of Southborough in general.
(c) Wherever possible, pedestrian connection to local services should be incorporated into
the site design to lessen the dependency on the automobiles.
(d) The plan shall be designed to maximize the preservation of the natural features of the
site using cluster housing and/or creative site planning.
Wherever possible, existing vegetation should be retained throughout the site as a natural
buffer to adjacent properties.
(e) The proposed development shall satisfy the criteria of this section (§ 174-9) outlined in
Subsection A, Decision considerations.
(f) To promote socioeconomic diversity and meet the needs of independent seniors (55+)
on fixed or limited incomes, any development approved under this section shall provide
that a minimum of 16.67% of the total units be designated as affordable to low- or
moderate-income households at 80% of area median income (AMI). These units shall be
eligible for inclusion on the Subsidized Housing Inventory (SHI) and shall be subject to
long-term affordability restrictions consistent with state requirements, to ensure that the
units remain available exclusively to persons with qualifying income.
1. Minimum Unit Construction
Notwithstanding any provision allowing a monetary payment in lieu, no applicant
shall satisfy the minimum required dwelling unit through payment, and at least one

Page 78 of 90

(1) dwelling unit shall be constructed where required by the application of the
density standard.
2. Fractional Unit Payment; Following construction of the minimum required
dwelling unit, where the application of the density calculation results in a fractional
unit less than one (0.01–0.99) and does not mathematically require an additional
whole dwelling unit, the applicant shall provide a monetary payment in lieu
calculated solely on the fractional unit remainder, in accordance with §174-9
H(1)(h).
Such payment shall not be construed as a substitute for any required dwelling unit.
3. Payment shall be made to the Southborough Affordable Housing Trust (SAHT) in
parallel with as built submissions to Planning Board.
(g): Fractional Unit Payment. The monetary payment required pursuant to this subsection
shall equal the fractional unit remainder multiplied by the per-unit payment amount, where

Original Language on Data centers below: I have tried to streamline for the Town Code, in doing
so, I may have removed important criteria. We should discuss the setbacks and development
standards to ensure that we can achieve this zoning and it is compatible with our planning intent.
H.

Use by Special Permit: Data Centers.

(1)
Standards applicable to all data centers: Data center/warehouse, defined as an establishment
or facility used for the storage, management, processing, and transmission of digital data, which
may include the housing of computer and/or network equipment, systems, servers, appliances, and
other associated equipment or components related to digital data operations. Supporting equipment

Page 87 of 90

facilities, utility substations, and other associated utility infrastructure to support operations. This
definition does not include server rooms or information technology infrastructure that is accessory
to the principal use of the site.
(2)
To provide visual screening and reduce noise levels, any equipment necessary for cooling,
ventilating, or otherwise operating the facility, including power generators or other power supply
equipment, must be fully enclosed, except where determined by the Town’s Engineer consultants
not to be mechanically feasible based on the manufacturer specifications. If the Town’s Engineer
consultants determines it is not mechanically feasible to fully enclose the equipment, it must be
screened by a wall or similar barrier. In addition, any equipment as referenced above that is located
on the ground and any accessory electrical substation must be screened from view from abutting
lots and from rights-of-way by a visually solid wall or a building. This standard does not apply to
solar panels.
(3)

The maximum building size is 50,000 square feet of gross floor area.

(4)

Minimum Distance from Residential

(a)
Any data center building must be located at least 300 feet from the lot line of an R district or
a property developed with a residential use.

(b) If located on the ground, any equipment for cooling, ventilating, or otherwise operating the
facility, including any power generator or other power supply equipment, must be either:
1. Located at least 400 feet from the lot line of a Residential district or a property developed with a
residential use; or

2. Separated from the lot line of a Residential district or a property developed with a residential use
by the principal data center building.

(c) For the purpose of this provision, a Residential district does not include an area within a public
street right-of-way.

(5) Development Standards:
(a) Minimum lot area: 43,560 square feet (minimum 20,000 square feet exclusive of wetlands).
[Amended 4-8-1996 ATM by Art. 54]

Rear: 50 feet.

(3)

Side: 50 feet.

(4)

Other street: 50 feet.

(d) Maximum height: 45 feet, three stories.
(e) Maximum floor area ratio: 0.60
(6) Prior to site plan approval, a noise study, performed by a third-party acoustic engineer to
document baseline sound levels in the area of the proposed Data Center, including noise levels
measured at the property line of the nearest property to the Data Center property that is planned or
zoned for residential land use must be submitted demonstrating to the Board of Health and Planning
Board’s satisfaction that the operation of the data center will comply with the Noise Bylaw. In
addition, prior to issuance of an occupancy permit, a post-construction noise study must be
submitted demonstrating to the Board of Health and Planning Board’s satisfaction that the operation
complies with the Noise Bylaw. The Data Center must be designed and built to incorporate sound
mitigation methods sufficient to prevent the sound levels emanating from the Data Center (as
determined by a third-party acoustic firm) from exceeding the ambient noise levels that were
observed in the baseline study. Design specifications for such sound mitigation must be provided to
the Town before building permit approval.

(7) A data center building must include a main entrance feature that is differentiated from the
remainder of the building façade by a change in building material, pattern, texture, color, or accent
material. The entrance feature must also either project or recess from the adjoining building plane.

(8) A data center building must be designed to minimize adverse visual impacts on surrounding
development as demonstrated by the submission of elevations, architectural sketches, or sight line
studies. The building should have a high-quality design as evidenced by the use of materials, color,
and texture. If the building is located less than 300 feet from a Residential district or a property
developed with a residential use, it should include changes in building height or other design
techniques to provide variation in building mass as viewed from the nearby residential district.

(9) The Data Center operator or property owner must notify residents within a half-mile radius of
the parcel, including any affiliated homeowners’ association operating within the half-mile radius,
that the property owner intends to build and operate a Data Center on the property. The notice

Page 89 of 90

required in this section must be mailed to all postal addresses and homeowners’ association
addresses contained within a half-mile radius extending from the property line where the proposed
Data Center will be built.

(10) The Data Center operator must schedule and attend two neighborhood meetings with residents
to describe the project and the proposed sound-mitigation aspects of the project design with support
from The Planning Board. Notice of the neighborhood meetings must be mailed to all residents and
homeowners associations within a half-mile radius of the parcel. A representative of the developer
or owner with decision-making authority on the design of the Data Center must attend the
neighborhood meetings. The Data Center operator or property owner must also post a sign on the
subject property, at least fifteen days before each neighborhood meeting. A sign must be located
along an arterial street or other high-visibility location as reasonably determined by the Town
Planner. The content of the sign shall (i) be consistent with the Town’s generally applicable sign
guidelines for posting signs for notification of neighborhood meetings, (ii) include the applicant
name and contact information, a brief description of the Data Center project, and the date, time, and
location of the neighborhood meeting, and (iii) must be reviewed and approved by the Town
Planner prior to installation. The applicant must remove the sign at the conclusion of the citizen
review process.

(11) If the Data Center operator intends to use backup power generators on the parcel, the operator
must maintain a public website announcing the times when the generators will be in operation. Any
routine operation of the backup generators, including for testing purposes, must be announced on
the website at least twenty-four hours in advance. The operator shall also notify the Town of
Southborough Town Clerk at least 24 hours in advance of a test. Unless the generators are
supplying backup electrical supply during a power outage, backup generators may operate between
the hours of 9:00 am and 5:00 pm, Monday through Friday, excluding holidays. Upon request by
Southborough Town Staff or Elected public officials, the Data Center operator must provide the
address of the website where the notices required by this section are published
