This property is currently used, and being marketed as, a two (2) family dwelling. Upon inspection of the Salem Zoning By-laws and Map, we determined that this property is in the B-4 Zoning District.

Would you be so kind as to confirm our understanding that the use of 21 Laurel Street, Salem as a two (2) family residence is a lawful use because it is a pre-existing, non-conforming use, by signing the enclosed copy of this letter where indicated and returning it in the stamped, self-addressed envelope?
