CITY OF SALEM. MASS
CLERK'S OFFICE
DECISION ON THE PETITION_OF DAVID_RUSSO/-RUDOLF AND MARY
GOWITZ FOR A VARIANCE AT 0 AND 2 CLARK AVENUE ( R-1 )
A hearing on this petition was held June 3 , 1992 with the
following Board Members present : Richard Bencal , Chairman;
Richard Febonio, Francis Grealish, Edward Luzinski and
Stephen Touchette . Notice of the hearing was sent to
abutters and others and notices of the hearing were
properly published in the Salem Evening News in accordance
with Massachusetts General Laws Chapter 40A.
Petitioners , owners of the property, are requesting
variances to divide land at 0 & 2 Clark Ave . The property is
located in an R-1 zone .
The Variance which has been requested may be granted upon a
finding by this Board that :
1 . Special conditions and circumstances exist which
especially affect the land, building or structure involved
and which are not generally affecting other lands ,
buildings and structures involved.
2 . Literal enforcement of the provisions of the Zoning
Ordinance would involve substantial hardship, financial or
otherwise, to the petitioner .
3 . Desirable relief may be granted without substantial
detriment to the public good and without nullifying or
substantially derogating from the intent of the district or
the purpose of the Ordinance .
The Board of Appeal, after careful consideration of the
evidence presented at the hearing, and after viewing the
plans, makes the following findings of fact:
1 . The petitioner, David Russo, is the owner of the land and dwelling
situated at and known as 0 Clark Avenue, Salem, Massachusetts.
2. Said dwelling is a single family, constructed in 1988 in an area
zoned for single family.
3. When constructed said dwelling conformed with all building
regulations and zoning requirements of the City of Salem.

4. Prior to construction a dispute arose between Mr. Russo A& 41lgh ,
& Mary Growitz, owners of 2 Clark Ave. , regarding sideline boundary.- F/C'f'.f"s
�,r
5. Unable to resolve said dispute, Civil Action was filed in Essex
County Superior Court which sought to establish a claim of adverse
possession by the Growitz's for portion of land whose record title was
vested in the petitioner.
6. The petition has been filed in conjunction with the resolution of
the pending civil litigation.
7 . Petitioner David Russo seeks variance to allow conveyance of parcel
shown as Lot 3 on a plan entitled "Proposed subdivision of Land in
Salem, MA Prepared for David Russo and Rudolph and Mary Growitz, Scale
1" = 20' , February 15, 1992" to said Growitz's. Said conveyance would
leave less than the minimum lot width as set forth in the Zoning
Ordinance.
8. Appearing in favor were petitioners Rudolph and Mary Growitz. No
one appeared in opposition to said petition.
On the basis of the above findings of fact, and on the
evidence presented at the hearing, the Board of Appeal
concludes as follows :
1 . Special conditions exist which especially affect the
subject property but not the district in general .
2 . Literal enforcement of the provisions of the Zoning
Ordinance would involve substantial hardship to the
petitioner.
3 . Desirable relief can be granted without substantial
detriment to the public good and without nullifying or
substantially derogating from the intent of the district or
the purpose of the Ordinance.
Therefore, the Zoning Board of Appeal voted unanimously,
5-0, to grant the variance requested, subject to the
following conditions :
1 . Petitioners shall comply with the plans and dimensions
submitted to the Board of Appeal .

Dear Mr. Munroe:
You have requested my opinion whether or not the above
lot of land containing 12 , 753 square feet of land should
be afforded the protection of the first sentence of the fourth
paragraph of GLc40A §6 set out as Section VIII (B) ( 1 ) in
the City of Salem Zoning Ordinance.
It appears that the lot in question conforms to all
the requirements of the existing zoning ordinance with the
exception of the area and frontage requirement. An examination
of the records at the Registry of Deeds indicates that the
most recent instrument of record prior to August 27 , 1965
(effective date of the zoning ordinance) indicates the lot
was separately owned and it has retained it' s separate identity
since that time. In addition, it has a minimum of 5 , 000 square
feet of area and 50 feet of frontage.
Accordingly, in my opinion, the parcel' should be afforded
the benefit of the "grandfather" provision of`GLc40A�§6 as
enumerated in Section VIII (B) ( 1 ) of our Zoning Ordinance .
Ver"x truly yours ,,.
