Board Members present at the July 27, 1994 meeting were: Stephen Touchette, Chairman; Gary Barrett, Nina Cohen and Albert Hill. 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 Variances from rear and side setback requirements to allow construction of a 20 foot by 32 foot garage. The property is located in the Residential Two Family District. The Variances which have been requested may be granted upon a finding by this Board that: 1. 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 involved. 2. Literal enforcement of the provisions of the Zoning Ordinance would involve substantial hardship, financial or otherwise, to the petitioner. 3. 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 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. There was no opposition to the petition. 2. According to petitioners plot plan, area of lot totals 5580 square feet. Existing structure consists of a 900 sq.ft. single family - residence. 3. Petitioner represented that, although the submitted plans show a 281x32' garage, they propose to build a 20' x 321 garage, taking up a total square footage of 640 sq.ft. 4. Taken together, the square footage of both structures is less than 28% of total lot area. 5. This is the most feasible location on the property to place the proposed garage. Q .� o as r DECISION ON THE PETITION OF ALFRED MANIERO FOR m VARIANCES AT 17 WHEATLAND STREET, SALEM page two r of v T• �� ms N 4.0 On the basis of the above findings of fact, and on the evidence p'PeseFted at the hearing, the Board of Appeal concludes as follows: 1.

Literal enforcement of the provisions of the Zoning Ordinance would involve substantial hardship to the petitioner. 3. Desirable relief can be granted without substantial detriment to the public good and without nullifying or substantially derogating from the intent of the district or the purpose of the Ordinance.

Petitioner shall comply with all city and state statutes, ordinances, codes and regulations. 2. All construction shall be done in strict accordance with the plans and dimensions submitted and varied by further conditions. 3.
