DECISION ON THE PETITION OF JOHN SMITH FOR VARIANCE/SPECIAL
PERMIT AT 18 PORTER ST. (R-3)
A hearing on this petition was held September 28, 1988 with the following Board
Members present: James Fleming, Chairman; Messrs. , Bencal, Luzinski, Nutting and
Strout. 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, represented by Attorney George Vallis, is seeking
a Variance and/or Special Permit to construction two (2) additional units. The
existing building does not meet the the required front and side yard setbacks, the
proposed addition will encroach on the side yard requirements.
Therovision of
p the Salem Zoning Ordinance which is applicable to this request
for a Special Permit is Section V B 10, 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 VIII F and IX D, 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
of the Board that the grant of the Special Permit will promote the public health,
safety, convenience and welfare of the City's inhabitants.
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 Dublic
good and without nullifying or substantially derogating from the intent of the
district or the purpose of the Ordinance.
The Board of Appeal, after careful consideration of the evidence presle at the
hearing, and after viewing the plans submitted, makes the following finq�ws of fac?k_
1 . There were two letters submitted in favor; 68S !'d 80 G S818R 80 E Q
2. There was substantial neighborhood opposition;
:i

PERMIT AT 18 PORTER ST. , SALEM
page two
3. The driveway is only seven (7) feet wide;
4. This is a highly congested area and the proposed two units would
exacerbate this condition.
On the basis of the above findings of fact, and on the evidence presented, the
Board of Appeal concludes as follows:
1 . The proposed addition would not be in harmony the the neighborhood and will
not promote the public health, safety, convenience or welfare of the
City's inhabitants.
2. Special conditions or circumstances do not exist which especially affect the
subject property and not the district generally.
3. Literal enforcment of the Ordinance would not involve substantial hardship
to the petitioner.
4. The relief requested cannot be granted without substantial detriment to the
public good or without nullifying and substantially derogating from the intent
of the district or the purpose of the Ordinance.
Therefore, the Zoning Board of Appeal voted 1 -4 against the granting of the
requested relief (Mr. Fleming voted in favor) . Having failed to obtain the
required four (4) positive votes required to grant relief, the Variance and
Special permit are denied.
VARIANCE AND SPECIAL PERMIT DENIED

MIDDLETON,MA 01949
TO: Board of Appeals
The present owner of 18 Porter Street seems to be doing a good job of
improving the appearance of the property. It certainly looks a lot
better now than before.
I have seen the proposed plan and 13m in favor of it.
Sincerely yours,

TO: Board of Appeals
I think a new addition blended to the improvements the present owner
has already .made, such 'as new vinyl siding, would help upgrade the
' k
• - i
area. • Most important is the fact. that.'several cars now parked on the
street will have spaces in the rear. I am in favor of the petition.
Very truly yours,
