DECISION OF THE PETITION OF AUTUMN DEVELOPMENT COMPANY
REQUESTING A VARIANCE FOR THE PROPERTY LOCATED AT 205 HIGHLAND
AVENUE B-2
A hearing on this petition was held December 15, 1999 with the following Board
Members present: Nina Cohen, Chairman, Ronald Harrison, Michael Ward, Stephen
Buczko and Richard Dionne. 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, Autumn Development Company, Inc. is the owner under agreement of
the Vincent's Potato Chip site on the corner of Highland Avenue and First Street. The
site is presently vacant as a manufacturing operation has been moved to Lynn. The
petitioner seeks to demolish the existing factory and warehouse, and construct in its
place 120 luxury rental units as shown on the plans submitted herewith.
The plans calls for five residential buildings, three stories high, with 24 units each. A
clubhouse and outdoor pool are also planned. The design calls for extensive
landscaping along the perimeter of the property with a large,undisturbed green buffer
between the site and its only abutters, the Cloisters Condominium complex. The site,
which totals 6.9 acres, will have 180 parking spaces per unit as required by the
ordinance.
Once constructed, Corcoran Management Company, a leader in the property
management field, will become the manager of the complex. Corcoran currently has
over 8,000 high-quality residential units under management in New England and the
southeasterly United States. Locally, Corcoran manages the Beverly Commons, the
Saugus Commons and the Andover Commons among others.
The site, which is located in a B-2 District, requires a variance from the Ordinance to
permit the residential use as submitted. Additionally, a variance to the maximum height
of buildings, which in the B-2 District, is 30 feet is also necessary as the height of the
proposed structures will generally be 40 feet, pus or minus.
Finally, because the lot will not be subdivided and will be owned and maintained as a
Single complex, a variance allowing more than one principal building on a lot is
necessary.
The petitioner believes that this project will further enhance the already residential
neighborhood along First Street, and is a worthwhile project for the City.
Wherefore, the petitioner respectfully requests that the necessary relief be granted.

DECISION OF THE PETITION OF AUTUMN DEVELOPMENT COMPANY
REQUESTING A VARIANCE FOR THE PROPERTY LOCATED AT 205 HIGHLAND
AVENUE B-2
page two
The Variances which have been requested may be granted upon a finding by this Board
that:
1.Special conditions and circumstances exist which especially affect the land, building or
structures involved and which are not generally affecting other lands, buildings and
structures involve.
2. Literal enforcement of the provisions of the Zoning Ordinance would involve
substantial hardship, financial or otherwise, to the petitioners.
3. Desirable relief may be granted without substantial detriment to the public good and
without nullifying or substantially derogating from the intent of the district of the
purpose of the Ordinance.
The Board of Appeal, after careful consideration of the evidence presented at the
hearing, and after viewing the plans, makes the following findings of fact:
1. The petitioner was represented by Attorney Joseph Correnti Jr. of the firm of Serafini,
Serafini, Darling and Correnti:
2. A set of proposed plans were presented along with a rendering of the completed
project.
3. There was evidence that the petitioners had met previously with residential abutters
in the area to apprise them of the plans for the project.
4. A number of abutters along with several members of the city council were present to
speak in favor of the project. Those going on record as being in favor of the
proposed plans were: Cindy Anselmo, property manager of the Cloisters, a
condominium community abutting the proposed area to the south, who presented
signatures of 28 of her residents saying they were in favor of the project.; Patricia
Bagley, a homeowner at 29B First Street for the past 15 years; Scott Lanes, of 13
First Street; Joan Gilman, of 9D First Street; Fred Rollins, of the Cloisters; Ralph
Cerandulo of 207 Highland Avenue;lona Hayden of 31B First Street and William and
Diana Malhoit of 15 First Street.
5. Mayor Stanley Usovicz appeared to speak in favor of the project calling it a good
Project for the city and saying that a number of uses for the property had been
sought among industrial and retail potential clients for nearly a year and no
expressed any interest. A number of city councilors appeared or sent work that they
were in favor of the project. Those appearing at the meeting were: Councilor Joan
Lovely in whose ward the project falls; Councilor Thomas Furey and Councilor-elect
Joseph O'Keefe. Additionally, Councilor Kevin Harvey sent a letter in favor of the
DECISION OF THE PETITION OF AUTUMN DEVELOPMENT COMPANY
REQUESTING A VARIANCE FOR THE PROPERTY LOCATED AT 205 HIGHLAND
AVENUE B-2

project and urging passage. Councilor Leonard O'Leary sent work through Ms.
Lovely that the project had his support.
6. Councilor Lovely, noting that the Board of Appeal had the power to independently
change the use of the parcel, stated that if it otherwise had to be submitted to the
City Council for approval she felt certain that approval would be forthcoming.
7. There was correspondence received going on record as being opposed. Letters
were received from Walters B. Powers III, Chairman of the Planning Board; and
and City Planner Patrick Reffett. Chairman Power expressed the board's strong
objection to the petition, while the City Planner has some significant limitations which
make it a unique property and impede conventional development.
Therefore, the Zoning Board of Appeals concludes as follows;
1. The variance for the property in questing can be granted without substantial
detriment to the public good or without nullifying and substantially derogating from
the intent to the district or the purpose of the ordinance, subject to the following
conditions.
On the basis of the above findings of fact, and on, the presented at the Zoning Board of
Appeal voted unanimously, 5 in favor, to grant the variances requested, subject to the
following condition;
1. Petitioner shall comply with all city and state statues, ordinances, codes and
regulations.
2. All requirements of the Salem Fire Department relative to smoke and fire safety shall
be strictly adhered to.
3. All construction shall be done as per the plans and dimensions submitted and
approved by the Building Inspector.
4. Petitioner shall obtain a building permit prior to beginning any construction.
5. Exterior finishes of the new construction shall be in harmony with the existing
structures.
6. A Certificate of Occupancy is to be obtained.
7. A Certificate of Inspection is to be obtained.

10. Hours of blasting shall be conducted per the Salem Fire Department rules and
regulations.
11. Access shall be made through First Street.

Re: Sale of 205 Highland Avenue, Salem, MA.
formerly the site of Vincent's Potato Chip, Inc.
Dear Tom:
This letter is to briefly address your inquiry as to our marketing efforts in connection with offering the
above-referenced property for sale. As you recall, an appraisal was completed during June, 1998. The
appraisal examined various uses based on the current zoning, which allowed a building of approximately
61,000 square feet. Based on the present zoning,the appraiser determined retail use to be property's
highest and best use.
Although industrial and commercial office were also permitted uses, the appraiser determined that
neither use would be an economically viable alternative to you. For example, an industrial use was
valued at approximately$1,000,000 less than the property's estimated value as a retail site because of
the site configuration, building height and set-back restraints, access and most.importantly,the market
demand, economic analysis and a high real estate tax rate. An office use and valuation was also
dismissed because of the low demand and high vacancy rate.
After you engaged our services, we proceeded to target many of the large retail users, retail brokers and
developers. Our objective as your marketing agent, is to target the use that provides sellers with optimal
value under the permitted uses. During the next few months we received virtually no qualified offers and
little significant interest. In late December to early January, 1999, 1 was approached by a national
multifamily developer expressing a serious interest in the site. This prompted me to visit the Planning
Office to determine whether it was feasible to pursue a multifamily use. Based on preliminary inquiries, I
came away with the understanding that rental or condominium housing would be considered as an
approved use but would be subject to the procedural hearing and notice requirements providing abutters
the opportunity to voice their opinions and/or objections. This information seemed to validate
information received from the multifamily housing buyer/developer who made the initial offer.
Late January, 1999, an offer was presented to you to develop a 240 unit development. After ongoing
negotiations, you decided to reject the offer based on certain conditions. During February, 1999 we
started to contact a few residential developers and received a qualified and acceptable offer from
Corcoran Realty, Inc. by March 4, 1999 at a price that matched the appraiser's value.
During the marketing period no commercial offers were presented to us or to you.
If you should have any further questions on this matter, please do not hesitate to call me.
Sincere ,

Dear Madam Chairperson and members of the Board:
I am writing to you to express my strong support for the petition of Autumn Development Co., Inc.,
requesting zoning relief for one hundred and twenty (120) high-end residential apartments on the former f
Vincent Potato Chip factory site.
I believe that this project fits extremely well with the predominantly residential neighborhood that
abuts the property, and I believe that the doubling of real-estate taxes that this new project will bring, is
extremely important to Salem. I also strongly believe that when the community is presented with this type
of opportunity for a major investment,we ought to encourage and support this type of development.
With that in mind, I would urge the board to take positive action on this request.
Very'tr�uly�yours,
KEVIN R. HARVEY

the continuation of people using this site as a dumping ground.
This is our NEIGHBORHOOD, and a majority of the 44 unit owners who as
