City of Salem
Board of Appeal
One Salem Green
Salem, Massachusetts 01970
July 16, 1993
Dear Board Members:
Re: Petition submitted by David and Tracey McBournie for a
Special Permit to extend nonconforming side setback to allow
the construction of a deck at 15 Highland Street (R-3)
Thank you for notifying us of the public hearing scheduled for July 21 ,
1993 with regard to the above petition. Unfortunately, we will be out of
state on the night of the hearing and unable to attend in person.
Our home is at 17 Highland Street. We are abutters to the petitioner's
property, along the side lot line where the requested Special Permit would
extend the nonconforming side setback.
We respectfully request that the Board attach the following conditions to
the petitioners' request: that the edge of the deck be no closer than seven
feet from the side lot line, and that the floor of the deck be no higher
than 5 feet off the ground.
So long as the Special Permit, if granted, meets these conditions, we do
not oppose its being granted and will not appeal it.
BACKGROUND
We discussed with Tracey McBournie about two weeks ago their plans for
their proposed deck. Tracey indicated that their preliminary idea was to
build the deck so that the portion closest to our shared property line
would extend roughly in a line from the side their rear entry hall.
Unlike most of their house, which is approximately 7 feet from the side lot
line, the rear entry hall, attached to the side of the house, is roughly 2
1/4 feet from the property line. She also told us the deck would be
approximately 4-5 feet high, with a railing extending above that.
We conveyed our concern that the deck as she described it was too close to
the property line, and would negatively impact our property by being so
close. We discussed with her the possibility of shifting the edge of the
deck so it was in line with the majority of their house, that is,
approximately 7 feet from the side lot line. Based on that discussion, it
is our understanding that the petitioners would be willing to go along with
this modification.
We have provided a copy of this letter to the petitioners.
Thank you for your consideration.
Sincerely yours,
Christophe M. Gre ne Deborah L. Kahn-Greene O

DECISION ON THE PETITION OF DAVID & TRACEY MCBOURNIE FOR A SPECIAL PERMIT
AT 15 HIGHLAND STREET (R-3)
A hearing on this petition was held July 21, 1993 with the following Board
Members present: Stephen Touchette,Vice Chairman; George Ahmed, Stephen
O'Grady, and Edward Luzinski. 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.
Petitioner, owner of the property, is requesting a Special Permit to extend
nonconforming side setback to allow construction of a deck in this
Multi-family District (R-3)
The provision of the Salem Zoning Ordinance which is applicable to this
request for a Special Permit is Section 5-3(j ) , which provides as follows:
Notwithstanding anything to the contrary appearing in this Ordinance, the
Board of Appeal may, in accordance with the procedure and conditions set
forth in Section 8-6 and 9-4, grant Special Permits for alterations and
reconstruction of nonconforming structures, and for changes, enlargement,
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
at the hearing, and after viewing the plans, makes the following findings
of fact:
1. The concerns of the immediate abutters were satisfied by the
petitioners.
2. The granting of the special permit would allow petitioner a fuller use
of the property.
3. It would not be feasible to locate the deck in any other portion of the
property.

July 16, 1993
Dear Board Members:
Re: Petition submitted by David and Tracey McBournie for a
Special Permit to extend nonconforming side setback to allow
the construction of a deck at 15 Highland Street (R-3)
Thank you for notifying us of the public hearing scheduled for July 21,
1993 with regard to the above petition. Unfortunately, we will be out of
state on the night of the hearing and unable to attend in person.
Our home is at 17 Highland Street. We are abutters to the petitioner's
property, along the side lot line where the requested Special Permit would
extend the nonconforming side setback.
We respectfully request that the Board attach the following conditions to
the petitioners' request: that the edge of the deck be no closer than seven
feet from the side lot line, and that the floor of the deck be no higher
than 5 feet off the ground.
So long as the Special Permit, if granted, meets these conditions, we do
not oppose its being granted and will not appeal it.
BACKGROUND
We discussed with Tracey McBournie about two weeks ago their plans for
their proposed deck. Tracey indicated that their preliminary idea was to
build the deck so that the portion closest to our shared property line
would extend roughly in a line from the side their rear entry hall.
Unlike most of their house, which is approximately 7 feet from the side lot
line, the rear entry hall, attached to the side of the house, is roughly 2
1/4 feet from the property line. She also told us the deck would be
approximately 4-5 feet high, with a railing extending above that.
We conveyed our concern that the deck as she described it was too close to
the property line, and would negatively impact our property by being so
close. We discussed with her the possibility of shifting the edge of the
deck so it was in line with the majority of their house, that is,
approximately 7 feet from the side lot line. Based on that discussion, it
is our understanding that the petitioners would be willing to go along with
this modification.
We have provided a copy of this letter to the petitioners.
Thank you for your consideration.
Sincerely yours,
Christophe M. Gre ne Deborah L. Kahn-Greene o
