DECISION ON THE PETITION OF JULIANNE RALLAS FOR A
SPECIAL PERMIT FOR 151 BRIDGE ST.
A hearing on this petition was held March 25, 1987 with the following Board
Members present: Edward Luzinski, Vice Chairman; Peter Dore, Acting Secretary;
Messrs. , Fleming & Labrecque. Notice of the hearing was sent to abutters and
others and notice of the hearing were properly published in the Salem Evening News
in accordance with Massachusetts General Laws Chapter 40A.
Petitioner, owner of the property, represented by Attorney Daniel Reich, is
requesting a Special Permit to allow the existing two family dwelling to be
' converted to a three family. Property is located in an R-2 district.
i
The provision of the Salem Zoning Ordinance which is applicable to this request
for a Special Permit is Section VIII F and IX D, grant Special Permits for
alterations and reconstruction of nonconforming structures, and for changes, en-
largement, extension or expansion of nonconforming lots, land, structures, and uses,
provided, however, that such change, extension, enlargement or expansion shall not
be substantially more detrimental than the existing nonconforming use to the
neighborhood.
In more general terms, this Board is, when reviewing Special Permit requests,
guided by the rule that a Special Permit request may be granted upon a finding
by the Board that the grant- of the Special Permit will promote the public health,
safety, convenience and welfare of the City's inhabitants.
The Board of Appeal, after careful consideration of the evidence presented and
after viewing the plans, makes the following findings of fact:
1 . There was no neighborhood opposition to the plan;
2. There would be adequate off street parking;
3. A Special Permit for the expansion had been granted on March 18, 1981
but did not go forward with expansion at that time;
4. There are numerous two and three family dwellings in the area.
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 . The granting of the Special Permit will promote the public health,
safety, convenience and welfare of the City's inhabitants;
2: The relief requested 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.
