DECISION ON THE PETITION OF JOHN THEODORAKOPOUL-OS-(PETITIONER.) , OWNED BY SPARKY
NELSON AND ROBERT NERSASAIN FOR A VARIANCE AT 408 ESSEX ST. (B;T
v
A hearing on this petition was held October 17, 1990 with the following Board
Members present: Richard Bencal , Chairman ; Joseph Correnti , Secretary; Richard
Febonio, Mary Jane Stirgwolt and Associate Member Arthur Labrecque. 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.
Petitioner is requesting a Variance from the minimum parking requirements to
allow a pizza shop (Mandee's) in this B-1 district.
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 or structures in the same district.
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 . Property has remained in the same configuration for many years .
2. A convenience store occupied this area in the past and this use for a
pizza shop would be less burdensome traffic wise.
3. No opoosition was submitted or voiced to the plan.
4. Property is zoned for business use and any other use would be impractical .
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 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.
