(978) 745-9595 DOMINICK PANGALLO STAVROULA ORFANOS MAYOR BUILDING COMMISSIONER/DIRECTOR OF PUBLIC PROPERTY ZONING ENFORCEMENT OFFICER VIOLATION NOTICE PROPERTY LOCATION: 21 Webb Street October 2nd, 2024 Dominic Pezzulo 75 North Street Salem, MA 01970 RE: Public Parking Lot Dear Mr. Pezzulo, On September 12d', 2024 it came to my attention that you have been operating the property at 21 Webb Street as a public parking lot with signage posted directing people to pay$15 to park through a Venmo account. I posted stop work orders over your signage since the use of the property is in violation of the zoning ordinance sections 3.1 Principal and Accessory Use Regulations and 5.1 Off- Street Parking. Shortly after, you gave me a call to discuss the property and I informed you of the following: • The public parking lot that has been created cannot exist as a stand-alone commercial parking lot. The zoning ordinance clearly identifies off-street parking lots as accessory to a building or use that is established on the same lot (Section 5.1.1). The stand-alone public parking lot is not an allowed use according to the use regulations table for an R2 zone, section 3.1 of the Salem Zoning Ordinance. • You mentioned near-by residents lease some of the parking spaces and/or stalls in the existing(6)bay garage building. I informed you that since this is not a legal commercial public parking lot, the ownership of the lot needs to be the same as the ownership of the building(s) of the residents using the lot, or else this use shall be deemed a violation as per Sections 5.1.2 and 5.1.7 of the Zoning Ordinance. CITY OF SALEM, MASSACHUSETTS BUILDING DEPARTMENT 98 WASHINGTON STREET,2ND FLOOR TEL. 978 745-9595 DOMINICK PANGALLO ST,�VROUL-1 ORFANOS MAYOR BUILDING COMMISSIONER/DIRECTOR OF PUBLIC PROPERTY ZONING ENFORCEMENT OFFICER • The public parking lot is in violation of the off-street parking design requirements of Sections 5.1.5 and 5.1.10,where the lot is currently accommodating spaces for ten or more vehicles(including the intended use of the six-bay garage building). • I have also informed you the property lies outside the designated zone for the Halloween Parking Overlay District and therefore you cannot accommodate the increasing tourist population visiting the City and offer public parking at this site. Our conversation ended with me telling you to cease and desist the use of the property as a public parking lot. Since that conversation, it has come to my attention that you have removed the stop work order signs I posted and have continued to use the property as a public parking lot in defiance of my cease and desist order. You have posted pay-to-park signs tied to the Venmo account with fees in increasing charges of$25, $30 and $40 over the past three weeks. Due to the aforementioned violations and defiance of my cease and desist order, I will be ticketing you daily until you correct the existing violations. If you are aggrieved by this notice, your appeal is to the Zoning Board of Appeals. Sincerely, Gail Kubik Local Building Inspector CITY OF SALEM ::M70NTJ�1pAY YEAR TIME L �.: 1 �� ..
