CITY CLERK, SA.-FM. Ne55.
DECISION ON THE PETITION OF ANDREW J . WOOD, I1 FOR A
VARIANCE FOR 32 HANCOCK ST. (R-2)
A hearing on this petition was held February 17, 1988 with the following Board
Members present: James Hacker, Chairman; Messrs. , Fleming, Strout and Associate
Member Dore. 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.
The petitioner, owner of the property, is requesting a Variance to convert an
existing two family dwelling into a three family dwelling in this R-2 district.
The Variance which has been requested may be granted upon a finding of the
Board that:
a. special conditions and circumstances exist which especially affect
the land, building or structure involved and which are not generally
affecting other lands, buildings and structures in the same district;
b. literal enforcement of the provisions of the Zoning Ordinance would involve
substantial hardship, financial or otherwise, to the petitioner;
c. 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 consideration of the evidence presented and after
viewing the plans, makes the following findings of fact:
1 . The petition can maintain five (5 ) legal parking spaces on the
premises:
2. There are other three family ana multi-famiiv dwellings in the area;
3. A petition in favor of this project signed by neighbors and abutters
was presented;
4. There was no opposition;
5. Facts presented concerning legal hardship were questionable.
On the basis of the above findings of fact, and on the evidence presented,
the Board of Appeal concludes as follows:
1 . Special conditions do not exist which especially the subject property
and not the district generally;
2. Literal enforcement of the provisions of the Ordinance would not involve
substantial hardship to the petitioner;

Variance. Messrs. , Fleming, Hacker and Strout voted in favor, Mr. Dore voted in
opposition. Having failed to carry the required four affirmative votes, the
petition is denied.
