DECISION ON -THE PETITION OF LAURENT J.BEDARD fOR 3
VARIANCES FOR 17 VERDON ST. , SALEM N m
N u1
A hearing on this petition was held May 15, 1985 with the following Board Members
present: James Hacker, Chairman; .Messrs. ,_ Charnas, Gauthier, Luzinski and Strout.
Notice of the hearing was sent to abutters and others and notice of the hearing
were properly published in the Salem Evening News in accordance with Massachusetts
General Law Chapter 40A.
Petitioner, owner of the premises, requests a variance from lot size in order to
divide a parcel of land into three lots, none of which will have the required
15,000 square feet. The lot is in an R-1 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 or structures in the same district;
b. literal enforcement of the provisions of the Zoning Ordinance would involve
substantial hardship, financial or otherwise, to petitioner; and
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 purposes of the Ordinance.
The Board of Appeal, after hearing the evidence presented at the hearing and after
viewing the plans, makes the following findings of fact:
1 . No opposition was raised to the plan;
2. The existing 28,000 square foot lot is very much larger than any
lot in the immediate area;
3. The lot is too large to be marketed for construction of a single
family house in this particular area;
4. Without the requested variance, petitioner will suffer financial hardship;
5. This situation is unique to this lot and does not generally affect the
district;
6. The neighborhood will not be affected substantially by the dividing
this lot into three smaller lots.

On the basis of the above findings of fact and on the evidence presented at the
hearing, the Board concludes as follows:
1 . Special conditions affect this lot which do not generally affect the
district;
2. Literal enforcement of the Ordinance would work a substantial hardship
upon petitioner;
3. The Variance requested can be granted without substantial detriment to
the public good and without substantially derogating from the intent
and purpose of the Ordinance.
Therefore, the Zoning Board of Appeal voted unanimousl 5-0 to grant the
Variance requested by petitioner.
