Sir: a
This is a writtencomplaint�on a violation of R-2 zoning laws occurring at
ATO Nar_dy Street_,..#1,_Sal_em,,MA-.%The premise, a pre-civil war structure
recently rehabilitated and converted into condominiums, is being rented to
a corporation, Night Owl Productions, which is filming a documentary in
Salem for PBS. The unit is being used by the wardrobe department for the
design, construction and alteration of costumes for the movie. This work
is being performed from early morning to as late as midnight each day. The
place looks like a "sweat shop". We, the undersigned, believe the unit is
therefore in violation of the following zoning regulation:
1. Rooming and boarding of more than two (2) persons.
2. Engaging in an activity not covered in Section 5, page 19
"Permitted Uses". 17
The undersigned owners of the other units within the condominium asso-
ciation further state that the unit is being used in violation of the by-
laws and master deed (Exhibit A). We expressed this to John Hamilton (or
i„ Gentral St. , Rowley, MA) , who is the landlord but this has been to no
avail . We also are disgusted with the lack of concern these people display
for the appearance of our "homes" and the neighborhood. The unit is
"furnished" with racks of costumes and accessories, sewing machines and
other tools of their trade. A washing machine is connected in the spot
where the stove hook-up is located. During the daytime anywhere from 9-20
people pass through the unit. In addition, we believe the unit is being
used as "dormitory" housing for some of these people.
The undersigned neighbors of the premises also object to the lack of con-
sideration displayed by these people. They have violated parking restric-
tions and have showed no respect for the right of way. Furthermore, there
is a concern that the violation might set a precedent for violations by
others. As long-standing residents and property owners, the undersigned
are determined to ensure that the area continue to maintain its character
and charm.
