City of Salem Zoning Board of Appeals
Petition of Hans Weedon requesting a Variance from rear yard setback
and a Special Permit to modify an existing non-conforming building, to
allow for a second story balcony for the property located at 1A
DANIELS STREET COURT [R-2].
A public hearing on the above petition was opened on October 17, 2007 pursuant to Mass
General Law Ch. 40A, Sec. 11, with the following Zoning Board members present:
Robin Stein, Rebecca Curran, Richard Dionne, Bonnie Belair and Elizabeth Debski.
Petitioner seeks variances pursuant to Section 9-5 and a special permit pursuant to
Section 8-4 to allow for a second story balcony.
The Board of Appeal, after careful consideration of the evidence presented at the public
hearing, and after thorough review of the plans and petition submitted, makes the
following findings of fact:
1. Architect Helen Sides, presented the petition for the property owned by Hans
Weedon at IA Daniels Street Court in the R-2 Zoning District.
2. The proposed balcony is part of a second story addition. The residence is
currently one story and the Zoning Ordinance allows for 2 1/2. The requested
relief is exclsuively for the balcony.
3. The proposed balcony is shown on the plans prepared by HF Sides Arch LLC
entitled"Weedon Loft"., dated January 23, 2007, sheets A3-A6. The 3' x 10'
proposed balcony is on the south side of the residence and it would extend
into the already non-conforming rear yard by 3'.
On the basis of the above findings of fact and all evidence presented at the public hearing
including, but not limited to, the Plans, Documents and testimony, the Zoning Board of
Appeals concludes as follows:
1. The petitioner may vary the terns of the Residential Two-Family Zoning
District to enable the proposed development, which development is consistent
with the intent and purpose of the City of Salem Zoning Ordinance.
2
2. In permitting such change, the Board of Appeals requires certain appropriate
conditions and safeguards as noted below.
In consideration of the above, the Salem Board of Appeals voted, five (5) in favor (Stein,
Debski, Belair, Dionne, and Curran) none (0) opposed, to grant petitioner's requests for a
variance and special permit subject to the following terms, conditions, and safeguards:

3. All requirements of the Salem Fire Department relative to smoke and fire safety

4. Petitioner shall obtain a building permit prior to beginning any construction.
5. Exterior finishes of new construction shall be in harmony with the existing
structure.
6. A Certificate of Inspection is to be obtained.
