Bencal, Secretary A COPY OF THIS DECISION HAS BEEN FILED WITH THE PLANNING BOARD AND THE CITY CLERK JOHN HANDY WRIGHT FIVE WINTER STREET SALEM, MASSACHUSETTS 01970 November 4, 1986 James B. Hacker, Chairman Board of Appeal One Salem Green Salem, MA. 01970 Dear Mr. Hackers Since I will be away *on 12 November when the public hearing is scheduled for the variance .or,_speciel_pe.r-mit __ 1 re the five unit condominium at 3' Winter Street, which abuts my property at 5 Winter Street, this letter may be read in my absence. While I, and all the abutting property owners to 11/2- 3 Winter Street were opposed to the idea of a separate- carriage house being built on the property, and while I am not personally in favor of an addition to the main house due to increased human and automobile density in an already heavily populated neighborhood, I think that the architect, David Jaquith, has developed an attractive and compatible two story addition. Absent from the plans which I viewed yesterday, however, is the driveway side elevation, the most important 'elevation concerning my interest. I have spoken with David Jacobson, one of the three owners of JPS Realty and the elevation should be here tonight for you and the board members to see, and I will see it when I return. The centering of the proposed addition is much better in my estimation, and the location of the parking spaces for eleven cars at the rear left of the house (behind 1 1/2) is historically in keeping with the location of the former original carriage house which would have had vehicles there. If the owners' permit to undergo construction is in. order, and if they carry through with this ambitious condominium converhi&rLr�project and restore the exterior of the architecturally significant Federal period house it will certainly improve the ongoing aesthetic appearance of Winter Street and the Salem Common area.
