DECISION ON THE PETITION OF HELEN DOHERTY FORA CIT" C' r : ;FlCE
VARIANCE FOR 75 WEBB STREET $^i + i
A hearing on this petition was held on September 28, 1983 with the following
Board Members present: Janes Hacker, Chairman; Messrs. , Charnas, Hopper, Luzinski - -
and Piemonte. Notice of said 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 is requesting a Variance to allow her to keep an already existing
deck which otherwise violates the side setback requirements of the Zoning
Ordinance in this R-2 district.
The Board of Appeal, .after consideration of the evidence presented at the public
hearing and after viewing plans and photographs of the existing deck, makes the
following findings of fact:
1 . The..deck extends right up to the neighbor's side boundary;
2. The deck seriously compromises the aforementioned neighbor's privacy;
3. Vigorous opposition was raised by neighbors to petitioners plan.
On the basis of the above findings of fact, and on the evidence presented at.
the public hearing, the Board of Appeal concludes as follows -
1 . The .deck substantially derogates from the .intent and purpose of
Zoning Ordinance;
2. The deck is a substantial .detriment to the public good
Therefore,the Zoning Board of Appeal, by a vote of three (3) to two`(2) , voted
to deny petitioner's request for a Variance.

To whom it may concern :
Re : Mr. James Doherty
I have cared for this patient for many
years and he has had several serious opera-
tions related to advanced circulatory dis-
turbances. Following surgery for a circu-
latory disturbance to the brain, he suffered
a mild stroke which has left him with some
weakness of the left arm and leg, in addi-
tion, he has had__,a major arterial procedure
for blocked arteries in both legs.
More recently he has developed evi-
dence of arthritis in the left hip. All
of these serious medical conditions make
it imperative that he do as little climb-
ing or walking up stairs as possible and
anything that allows him to avoid climb-
ing stairs or walking up hills, either in
the house or outside , is very important to
his health.
