USOVICZ, JR. TELEPHONE: 978-745-9595 EXT. 380 (=)f - STANLEY FAX: 978-740-9846 DECISION OF THE PETITION OF MARK & JULIE COUGHLIN REQUESTING A N rr v VARIANCE FOR THE PROPERTY LOCATED AT 19 LEE STREET R-1 L A hearing on this petition was held on April 21, 2004 and continued to May 12, 2004 with the following Board Members present: Nina Cohen, Stephen Harris, Nicholas Helides, Bonnie Belair 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 is requesting a Variance from lot coverage to allow an addition to the main house and garage and a Variance from side and rear setback relief for addition and garage for the property located at 19 Lee Street located in a R-1 zone. The Variances, which have been requested, may be granted upon a finding by this 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 structure involve. b. Literal enforcement of the provisions of the Zoning Ordinance would involve substantial hardship, financial or otherwise, to the petitioners. 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 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's would like to remove an existing deck to build a single-story addition at the rear of their home. They also would like to take down an existing garage and rebuild a larger 24'x75' x 41' garage that will connect directly to the house via a rear door. 2. The proposed garage will be 2.4' from the left property. It requires a variance from the Ordinance's side setback requirement. The addition will be 6' from the right property line at the furthest point and also requires a variance. The new garage extends to within 2' of the rear lot line, thus increasing an existing non- conforming as to rear yard setback. 3. The proposed building scheme exceeds the square footage allowed for coverage by about 5% or 223.25sf and petitioners also seek a variance from lot coverage. 4. A neighbor Brian Curr of 17 Lee Street appeared to support the petition. Councillor Mike Bencal of Ward 6 also supported the petition.
