Re:Parking requirements
Dear Owners,
Your facility has raised the question of whether your number of parking spaces is in compliance or not. It is my
opinion that your parking configuration is now Grandfathered and is free from any action by the City.We were
unable to find a Planning Board decision and therefore question if the project even went to the Planning Board.
Even if it had ,and a specific number of spaces had been called out,all of this was done with a permit from the
City and more than six years have passed which would prevent the City from trying to enforce a number of
spaces if it had been required. Sorry if this is confusing and feel free to ask any additional questions.

Re: Grosvenor House Nursing Home - 7 Loring Hills Avenue
On Thursday, July 26, 1990, the Salem Planning Board held a public hearing under m _�
Section VII-R Site Plan Review Special`Permit of the City of Salem'Zoning Ordinance for
the proposed construction of a 123 bed nursing home to be located at 7 Loring Hills
'.Avenue. At the public hearing, counsel for the Petitioner introduced evidence in
connection with all of the requirements under the Site Plan Review Ordinance including=_
matters relating to utilities, building mass, traffic, environmental concerns, landscaping,
staffing, and other site considerations.
There were statements and testimony which indicated that there has not been any
nursing home construction in Salem within the last forty to fifty years. In addition,
representatives of various social agencies and the Council on Aging testified or submitted
statements in support of the project. Petitions with signatures of interested parties were
also submitted in support.
Opponents of the project expressed several concerns including, but not solely limited
to, traffic circulation, noise, change of the residential character of the neighborhood, and
adequacy of utilities and parking.
The area in question is zoned Residential - 3, which allows multi-family residential
purposes. In an R-3 zone a nursing home is a use permitted by Special Permit. The

granted a Special Permit for a nursing home.

Gentlemen:
As discussed, we are not aware of any requirements by the City of Salem to perform any
road resurfacing in conjunction with work at the captioned project. However, O. Ahlborg
& Sons' contract with Grosvenor Park Healthcare LP does require resurfacing 355 I.f. of
Loring Hills Avenue from the intersection of Carol Way to the shopping plaza. This work
has been completed.
Further we have installed new sloped granite curbing at the Loring Hills Avenue side of the
island, but not on the condominium association side. We believe this is in conformance with
the Salem Planning Board decision.
We regret that these issues have arisen, but believe we have adhered to all of our contract
requirements.
If you have any questions or concerns, please contact the undersigned.
Sincerely yours,

Dear Leo:
I am writing to request that you do not sign off on the Certificate of Occupancy for the

by the Planning Department.
The City has agreed to assume the maintenance of Loring Hills Avenue upon completion
of the project. In agreeing to this, the City expected that Loring Hills Avenue would be paved in
its entirety.

Dear Tom, =
I would like to thank you for your help in this matter of the door alarms.
In the near future I will set our Dynalock Security Door System to the lock
out mode. As you are aware I have a Life Safety Inspection yearly. It
would be very helpful if I had a statement coming from your department
stating that it is now allowed to have the doors continuously in the lock
mode. As I explained to your assistant we are 100per cent sprinklered, there
is an exit at the bottom of each stairwell, the staff all know the code to open
the doors, and all doors open upon a fire alarm. Feel free to fax it to me or
mail it. I would greatly appreciate this.
Thanks again,
Sincerely, Lois Wheaton Lpn

Inspector of Buildings

Re : Public utilities in upper Loring Avenue
Dear Mr. O'Brien:
The first statement in your letter of October 29th would appear
to be more fitting if it was reworded to say, "for some time
past, your department has advised us about the possibility of
problems envolving sewage, drainage, and water supply in any
extensive development of the upper part of Loring Avenue ."
This advise was intended to warn against the application of
"down-town" standards and assumptions to the high and outlying
areas at upper Loring Avenue, as was the policy at upper High-
land Avenue.
To claim inadequacy without knowing precisely of the maximum
use and the method to be used by the developer would be illogical.
Your assumption of a minimum of 1500 family units and IT' number
of building permits is, in no way sufficient data from which to
answer any of your questions. Adequate and complete plansy by the
developer, are necessary before any consideration of the adequacy
of existing public facilities can be given.
Many of the problems referred to in the first paragraph of this
letter may be resolved by the developer, depending upon the method
he proposes to use . The proposed method should, of course, be com-
patible with the existing public facilities. Whether this is feas-
ible or not is for the developer to determine, and so indicate on
a complete set of plans submitted for the approval of the city.
It does not seem to be the function of the city to do engineering
or design work for a private developer. It also appears unlikely
that the city will ever reconstruct, greatly modify, or extensively
extend its multi million dollar facilities for the benefit of any
one developer,- at least without bonded assurance that the entire
project will be completed in a definite period of time.
The existing public water and sewerage extends about to the east-
erly corner of the area under consideration. A recent water flow
test at this end of the water system indicated a camparatively
low supply through the existing old 6-inch main. It also indicated
a fair supply at the end of the 9.6-inch main near Maple Avenue.
This may, or may not, be adequate. It would depend upon the method
used by the developer,- such as larger mains and/or suitable pump-
ing and storage facilities on the building site.

p2partnund of Public Works
S�GIAm1E
NEAL B. MITCHELL
CITY ENGINEER November 12,1968.
Mr. Daniel J. O'Brien, Jr.
The public sewerage, at the end in question, consists of a 12-
inch pipe on a gradient of 0.024 and carries very little flow
at the present time . The problems involved with this sewer line
are thousands of feet away from the above referenced area. These
problems are now under study by a consulting engineering firm
and it is hoped that recommended improvements will be made before
any extensive progress is made on this project.
There is no public storm sewer at, or adjacent, to the above
referenced area. It is my understanding that the developer now
controls the land extending to the nearest public storm sewer
and proposes to connect to that system, although I have seen no
such plans. A portion of that system of storm sewer was installed
by the Massachusetts Department of Public Works. It discharges
Into the pond at the rear of the Stop & Shop Supermarket. It seems
likely that permission of the Massachusetts Department of Public
Works should be obtained, by the developer, before discharging
large volumes of water into this sewer. This also cannot be properly
resolved until complete plans are submitted for proper review of
all agencies.
The above should clearly indicate that until complete plans of
the entire project (80 acres) are submitted, there can be no reason-
able evaluation of the adequacy of existing public facilities to
serve the project. Futhermore, it is my opinion that the developer
should clearly show how he ultimately intends to use the existing
facilities with satisfaction to himself and no harm to others . In
other words, I believe it is up to the developer to plan for proper
service based on the existing public facilities. We will assist by
supplying basic data on the existing systems, but the solution of
his problem is strictly up to him.
At a meeting held in the Hawthorne Hotel on November 1,1967 by the
Loring Hills Development Co. it was disclosed that about 80 acres
of land was proposed to be developed,- essentially as a high-rise
apartment complex. The developer' s architect stated that there is
an adequate water supply for the proposed development. Regarding
sewers, and their problems, he said that when they employ a civil
engineer I would be contacted on any such problems. No such contact
has occurred.
In my opinion, any permit issued without the prior approval of
complete development plans could well be the cause of new and
future problems in this area. This, of course, is assuming that
a major portion of the development will eventually be constructed.
Very truly yours,
Neal Mitchell, City Eng

Gentlemen:
As discussed, we are not aware of any requirements by the City of Salem to perform any
road resurfacing in conjunction with work at the captioned project. however, O. Ahlborg
& Sons' contract with Grosvenor Park Healthcare LP does require resurfacing 355 1.f. of
Loring Hills Avenue from the intersection of Carol Way to the shopping plaza. This work
has been completed.
Further we have installed new sloped granite curbing at the Loring Hills Avenue side of the
island, but not on the condominium association side. We believe this is in conformance with
the Salem Planning Board decision.
We regret that these issues have arisen, but believe we have adhered to all of our contract
requirements.

Kzoning ordinances in such a T.ay that the petitioner wouldr
be required to obtain the prioj} approval of the city council
for the proposed use of the premises. The. building com-
missioner would have issued the permits but for the in-
struction of the city manager, who was added as a respond-
A, ent by amendment to the petition, to hold the matter in
abeyance. An appeal by the petitioner to the board of
appeals, in accordance with the building code, was not
" + heard, the board declining "jurisdiction to entertain the
? appeal in view of the fact that there had been no decision
by an administrative officer of the city." It appeared from
IJ the statement of agreed facts upon which the petition was !
submitted to the judge that the petitioner had done every- ;
thing on its part to be done in order to entitle it to the
issuance of the building permits. The judge ordered the
writ to issue "specifically commanding the respondent .
� + [building commissioner] to definitely act" and dismissing
2 CZ. the petition as to the city manager. Later he allowed a
"✓ motion that judgment be entered in accordance with said
"t �y order. r^
We. agree with the petitioner that it was entitled to a
fuller measure of relief and to an order commanding the
building commissioner to grant the permits. '
A landowner has a right to improve his premises by the
erection and use of buildings thereon where he complies
i with the existing statutes and ordinances, and he is entitled
# to whatever permits may be necessary to enable him to
exercise this right. "The right to build would be utterly
lacking in substance if its exercise could be prevented by
the arbitrary and capricious refusal of a permit, or if the
granting or denial of the permit rested in the discretion of
some official or board." Kenney v. Building Commissioner �

The request for a building permit for an apartment block right in the ,

anything to interfere with the proposed spur road from 1-05. He then assured
me that the road would not interfere with his development. d

Dear Mr. Powers :
Your letter of October 28, 1968, indicates that the design of the
proposed Vinnin Square connector road would be affected by the proposed
apartment building; this leaves questions for the City of Salem which
can be answered only by the Department of Public Works:
1. The DPW directive issued by Commissioner Ribbs on December 27 , 1967,
states in part that "the Department will proceed to take whatever action
is necessary to protect the public interest," . Will the DPW send us a
directive to deny a building permit on the connector area?
2 . Assuming that the - application for a building permit complies with
all local ordinances , what position should the Salem Building Inspector.
take regarding its issue?
3 . The developer has repeatedly told me that I cannot withhold the is-
suance of the building permit do this area , now assessed as open land.
IIe has on several occasions submitted incomplete plans for permits on
two separate sites within the connector area .
In view of these facts , will the DPW issue to the City of Salem a
"stop order" preventing the issuance of any building permit in the con-
nector area?

Dear Mr. Ribbs: Re-My letter to you 12. 31. 68
The Mayor and City officials of Salem are very much in favor of
the Vinnin Square connector and would like to see its completion.
Is there anything your office could do to make an advance acqui-
sition or spot taking of the location of the proposed high-rise apart-
ments which would be in a direct path of the Vinnin Square connector.
The estimated cost of construction based on the application sub-
mitted to this office would be $1,000,000. Plans for these buildings
have been on file many months in this office . The application for the
permit was presented with a check covering the cost of building permit
in the amount of $300.00, both dated October 24, 1968.
Mr. Herman Brettman, Trustee of Loring Hills Associates , the devel-
opers who plan to erect apartments at this site , has been in constant
touch with this office , visiting here sometimes daily, and calling con-
tinunlly on the phone to find out when the building permit will be
issued.
I have been employing a delaying action, based primarily on your
letter of December, 1967, requesting the cooperation of this office
with regard to proposed construction at this and other sites of antic-
ipated road construction, but it has come to a point now that I feel
I must have some support for my stand, from the State.
Very truly yours,

division of at least five acreage lots. Plan L-1, Site Plan,
appears to be a portion of the above mentioned subdivision
plan. I fail to see how it qualifies for,- "approval under the
subdivision control law not required". This plan shows a proposed
"Access Road" to serve a 3.5 acre lot and also a lot consisting
of the balance of the land owned by the developer. The 3.5 acre
lot does not have frontage on a public way. It appears to me that
to qualify for,-"approval not regati.red" every lot within the tract
so divided must have frontage on a public way. If so, this plan
appears to indicate a subdivision.
The pian is not clear as it is not labeled "Preliminary" or
"Definitive.' It is assumed to be a Preliminary Plan as it does not
contain sufficient information to be considered as a Definitive Plan.
If your letter means a future subdivision of the 3.5 acre lot, then
the layout of the road on which the houses abut is not in accordance
with your Rules and Regulations, nor are the utilities in accordance.
I believe the Building Code requires the plans to be stamped by a
professional Architect or Structural Engineer registered in plass.
The Building Code also states that the level of the first floor
of an appartment house shall not be more than 4 feet above the mean
level of the street on which the building abuts. The plans indicate
about 8 to 10 feet difference in elevation. The Site Plan indicates
that there is to be more than one building on this lot. Is this to
be permitted? If so, it could present unusual problems in servicing
them with the necessary municipal utilities. More detailed informa-
tion id- definitely needed in this area.
There is insufficient information on the plans of the Access Road
to determine if it meets the requirements as to lines and grades.
Sideline data and profiles are needed. The plans also omit stone
bounds to mark the layout on the ground

The plans show no water supply for domestic or fire purposes. It
is believed that there is a problem involved in obtaining adequate
fire supply to this area.
If the building mentioned in your letter is to be construed as one
building of 15 units, then water department rules call for one service
line and one water meter per building. This would appear to be a
problem as pipes are prohibited from passing through the fire wall
from one unit to another in the building code.
The plans indicate asbestos-cement sewer pipe, whereas your Rules
and Regulations call for Vitrified Clay sewer pipe. The plans show
no profiles of sewers and drains, and no easements over private
property.
A brook is shown, but no right-of-way for the maintenance of the
water course is ihdicated .
A pond is shown, to be maintained at a certain elevation, but no
drain is shown to care for any possible overflow.
The drainage water eventually enters a State drainage system. A
State permit should be necessary to discharge into their system*
One drainage sya-yem is shown as not discharging into a natural
drainage course. Plan indicates that a sizable area could be flooded.
This upper system should be connected to the one below in the Access
Road. All catchbasins should be connected to drain manholes and not
to each other, for proper maintenance.
I believe the Planning Board should require provisions for the
construction of the Access Road and the utilities in accordance
with its Rules and Regulations, such construction and installation
to be secured by bond, deposit or covenant. The City has no other
way to take care of such matters.
The plans do not show location of buildings on adjacent lots not
owned by the developer so that it may be determined if a 75 foot
buffer zone, as required, will exist.

Dear Mr. Mitchell : Re-Plan of Loring Hills Associates "Site Plan"
Dated September 18, 1969
In connection with the Loring Hills development , a set of pians
has been brought to this Board in connection with a building permit
which will be sought by the applicant for one building consisting of
fifteen apartment dwelling units .
This Board is of course interested in the road and the utilities.
This is not presently a subdivision, and probably no definitie
subdivision plan will be filed until an application for a second
building .is filed. at a later date . ,
With regard to this first building, and the road and utilities
in connection therewith, we would appreciate your comments .
This is not the plan about which you were kind enough to give
us your comments in reply to our letter a few weeks ago. It is a
new plan insofar as the building is concerned.
We would appreciate it very much if you would let us have your
comments . in time for our next meeting, October 2nd.

MEMO PLAN OF LORING HIL.L,S ASSOCIATESt
Supplementing 'my- memo of September 18th, the plans that were submit
ted were changed again after .T had made the memo, and it was my un
derstanding that they are now applying for a permit for building
,just one building. I will divide my comments into two sections:
1 . The. work under the ,jurisdiction of the .Planning Hoard Sibdivi:
ion requirements -
a.. Only a sanitary sewer is shown on the 'new access road l ading
from Loring Avenue along the so-called main road; there are no
sewers whatsoever shown coming from the main building to thI sewe7
in the access road.
b. There is no indication• of any water service, fire hydraits, e +
C . If the developer construes this house to be the type that woul
be synonomous with Garden type apartments the individual se vices
into each house would have to be shown, and there is no ind catiol
of such..
d. The Plot plan .still shows the distance between building . as 4.
On Plan L-l .there is a lot that front a directly on Loring A enue
connected with the same parcel of land included in the plan .. Th
lot insofar as can be determined will not be interferred wi h by
future I-95 ramp, ,and it appears to that consideration b - the
developer should be given to entrance and egress on the pro )erty
and then there would be no occasion for rerouting of the ac :ess r
e. In my opinion, even though the developer .is calling the build
for which:. he is applying for a permit one building, there appear r
be 3 separate buildings merely connected by a roof which in tern
covers an open stairway that .is not connected to . any apartment .
f. Because of the great criticism that 'we have had from Neal Mi-
chell with regard to the Witchcraft Heights area whereas-future
development was not shown, the so-called main road through''th( pry
ject which terminates up on Loring Avenue near the Swampscott line
should be definitely defined and included as part of this devtlop.
ment plan; at a later date, if they wish to modify the exact loci .
tion, there would be no objection to that .
& There is no indication of storm drainage ; as far as I car de
mine, all of the storm drainage would come dcrn the main access r-
and spill out onto Loring Avenue . I believe. this is somethinf th,
City Engineer should advise us on, as to whether he would perrit
and if there are any alternative methods of ridding the proposed
of storm drainage. '
h. The plot plan ,shows a single driveway leading to a garage .
driveway must be at least eighteen feet wide so that two cars can
parked on the dwelling lot ; it is not permissible under the cede,
park one car in front of another. In conjunction with this requi
ment, it is questionable in my mind if the dwelling units at the
of the building .have sufficient depth off of the access road to p
vide a minimum of eighteen feet in accordance with the Zoning cegl.
ment .
2. BUILDINGS: I was asked as an architect and not as a Boart Mei
to comment . We have been told that each building will be ser, ice�
dividually; this automatically puts. the building into the cla: sif
tion of Garden type apartments which in turn, means that the ext,.
for of the building must be covered, at least 80%, by brick of of
quarry material, and the other 20% MAY be wood or plastic nate
The intent of this provision is to make these multiple family dwe
more fireproof in accordance with .the Codes
b. The rear elevations as shown show every other apartment. to lave
a garage, whereas the plot plan shows every apartment to have a larai
This must. be straightened out by the developer.
c . There are no end or side elevations shown, and the plot play sh,
the buildings to be staggered; this must be included in the drawings
see how the various buildings connect with one another.
d. The sections show the condition for a wood building; however ,
they do not show under sections where the masonry veneer will be in-
cluded. Furthermore the fireproofing of the basement ceilings is no
in accordance with the building code requirements.
e . In accordance with the Building Code, plumbing, heating and van,
ing, and electrical plans must be. included with plans for multipe f
ily dwellings; to date, no mechanical plans have been submitted.
There are several minor items that Mr. O'Brien, the Buildin{ In.
spector is aware of, deficiencies in regard to the Building Code .
Summing. up, these are merely what I would call preliminary Iro-
gress plans and are far from complete, and certainly do not meet the
requirements for which a building permit could be issued.

Salem, Massachusetts Re: Loring Ave. - sewer
Dear Mr, O'Brien:
The Engineering Dept. has made a study of the Loring Ave.
sanitary sewer from Vinnin St. to the sewer siphon at Forest River.
It has been found adequate for the present amount of flow.
One section of this sewer is 151' in diameter at a slope of
0.5%. This particular section limits the capacity of the sewer above
Elm Ave. to 1.97 mgd. The flow at this pointi.is estimated at 0.141
mgd. including the proposed 37 units of the Loring Hills Development.
The sewage flow estimates were calculated by using a number
of factors. There were assumed to be four people per dwelling unit
in the particular area, the discharge into the sewer was assumed
to be 60 gpcd. The commercial wastes contributed to the sewer were
based on a figure of 0.005 mgd. per acre, from the sewerage report
of C. A. Maguire and Associates. Also the infiltration rate was
obtained from this report as 32.5% of the total average daily flow.
The maximum hourly rate of flow in mgd. commonly taken as 300% of
the average daily flow was used as a basis in the calculations.
The Maguire report, mentioned earlier, indicates that illegal
storm drain connections may be found in this sewer. This could
increase the flow greatly.
The elimination of illegal connections and remodeling of the
siphon at Forest River plus the repair of the downstream sewer and
the siphon on Canal St. should make the sewer more than adequate
for the future.

Dear Mr. O 'Brien:
This letter is in reply to your inquiry of February 24, 1970
relating to plans of Loring Hills Associates, Inc.
1. The linen plan bearing the endorsement of the Salem Planning
Board is an approved plan and can be recorded by the owners.
This plan shows approval of a proposed road and utilities.
2 . Plan showing the condominium unit #1 can be the subject of
an application for a building permit, the plan being for one
proposed 'building, since in my opinion it is the proper
subject for the granting of a building permit.
3 . I have spoken to Attorney Jahn R. Serafini regarding the
plan dated January 30, 1970, showing three separate buildings.
I am informed this plan is not going to be used as an
application for a building permit on the lot as shown, since
this would constitute a subdivision. This plan is being with-
drawn and therefore no further comment is necessary.

consisting of approximately fifteen (15) units, to be constructed
on land they own adjacent to Loring Avenue. These plans have also
been submitted to your board.

type-multi-family dwellings, enacted this year . I interpret this
addition to the ordinance as providing only an option_ and not as ,
superseding the provisions in the ordinance relating to permitted

If the Planning Board interprets the application ,in the

tub miz;ing valve (which was open) and then came back down to the hot

red to in the application for a. permit, received in this department on Oc
tober 24, 1968, will be connected to the existing storm drainage system.
To date , we have received no written assurance from either your department
or the City Engineer that the storm drainage in that area is sufficient .
Over a year and a half ago, the developer at a public conference held
at the Hawthorne Hotel indicated there would be many multiple family dwel-
lings built in this general area , and as yet m plans have been received
by this department showing how the storm drainagd` question shall be re-
solved.
It has been discussed many times verbally, but this' department can
not be in a. positionro£ issuing any building permit until your department
assures us that the �'st6ra_`draina.ge for this building and all of the future
buildings is adequate .
If the existingg drainage system can not service the future areas, we
feel that the City would be_•'in jeopardy , if' any permits were issued without
some study and some drainage approval for the entrea:rea:'
We would appreciate your reply before any building permit is issued.
Very truly yours,

This will acicnowlodgo receipt of your letter dated
October 31, 19689 concerning the Vinnin Square Connector,
Salem.
There are no funds available for ri,ht of way ac-
quisition on this projoct, and with the present freeze on
Federal funds it is difficult to determine when funds will
. be available.
The proposed location 'of' the Connector as shown
to you by Mr. George Berardi of this Department indicates
that the apartment complex will be affected by the present
design.

Sir:
Plans for a proposed project known as Village at Vinnin Square,
located at the present terminus of Loring Hills Ave. , were
received for review of the Salem Fire Department.
It is understood that the project is planned in stages, and will
however require certain aspects to be set forth prior to any final
approval.
Plan A-1 Type T-1 dwelling: Plans are required to be submitted
for each structure to be built, with A. C. hardwired smoke detectors
to be placed and located by the Fire Prevention Officer. Each
dwelling unit shall be construed to be a separate structure, and
an application shall be required for each such structure, The
address for each structure shall be obtained from the City of Salem
Assessors office. Smoke detectors shall be interconnected , within
each unit. Type T-1 units will be considered a single family type
occupancy or condominium unit. Structural items are acceptable.
Plan A-2 Type T-2 dwelling: Applications and plans to be submitted
as noted for Type T-1 dwellings above.
Plan A-3 Type F-1 dwelling: This type structure being a multi-
family type occupancy shall require A. C. hardwired smoke detectors,
with single station type within each occupancy and multi-station
type within the common areas. An application shall be made for
each basic structure address, initially as a four family unit. If
the individual occupancies are to be sold as condominiums, a
separate Certificate of Compliance shall be required for each
condominium unit, prior to sale. Structural items are acceptable.
Plan X(U)1-Site Utility Plan: Legend states 5 post hydrants required,
upon review I find only three post hydrants shown on plan. However,
my calculations indicate with some changes, we can accept four (4)
post hydrants. The engineer shall make contact with this office to
determine the final locations for approval. .
Access appears satisfactory to structures.

RE: Plumbing Leaks - 4The�Village AL Vinnii Skuare.,
Loring Hills Avenue, Salem
Dear Sir:
The letter from J. Kennedy Jr. , of Boston and West Casualty, is not
correct as to the reason we had plumbing leaks at Vinnin.
Leak 111 was caused by Patten's Plumbing foreman, (Mr. Ernie Collette
was not the plumbing foreman nor was he on the site) when he cut off
the H.V.A.C. drain lines and then capped his drains to test the rough
plumbing. The H.V.A.C. condensate drains were never re-connected
causing leaks when the heating units were started up.
Leak 112-Patten replaced a leaking copper elbow in unit 1116's H.V.A.C.
closet.
Leak 113-Water was turned on in unit 1195. The water went up to unit 1197's
tub miring valve (which was open) and then came back down to the hot
water tank (that was not installed or had the pipe capped) causing
water to leak into unit 1193.
None of these three leakshave anything to do with self-priming traps.
Very truly yours,

Dear Inspector LeClair:
We are the Adjusters for Preferred Mutual and Patten ' s
Plumbing and Heating.
We have been asked to confirm-the cizcumstances surrounding
water damages to the above captioned condominium. units.
Patten ' s Plumbing and Heating advised that. Ernie Collette
advised he plumbed condensates tubes requiring self-priming
traps per your inspection. As a result the owners of
Vinnins Square Condominiums elected .not to go with the
primer and had the plumbing re-routed and the traps had to
be capped.
Would- you please advise your recollection of this scenario
and in writing provide any inspection reports for the above
y mentioned units . Did you request self--priming traps be
added to the heat pumps on these units?
Very truly yours ,

In response to your inquiry regarding clearances on our GHC5000 Gas
Fireplaces, please be advised as follows:
1) Horizontal combustibles may be placed as close as the top mounted
spacers allow (4 1/4" above front).
2) With a horizontal combustible at 4 1/4" or more up from the top,
1" clearance to the "B" vent must be provided.
3) As described in 1) & 2) above - this is the way the units were
tested by Underwriters Laboratories.
4) The 41" reference is to the ceiling in front of the fireplace,
not above it.
Thank you for your question in the interest of safety.

Dear Ms. Ryan:
This letter confirms that the pool at Loill_s Condo mimiumycomplex has never
been given a permit to operate by this department, anda— s far can be determined,
no building inspector's permit was issued for the construction thereof.
Consequently, in order to protect the health, safety and wellbeing of its users,
regulations as mandated by the State Department of Public Health and those mandated
by the local Board of Health must be incorporated into the operation of the pool.
Per telephone conversation with Naida Gavrelis of the State Department of Public
Health, the following high-priority items must be addressed at once:
1. An automatic chlorinator unit must be installed to the
current filtering system
2. A six foot fence shall enclose the entire pool
3. Water is to be tested 4 times per day (by lifeguard or someone else
designated by the trustees) , and a daily log kept
4. The Salem Board of Health will enforce the presence of a lifeguard
who is trained as stated in the regulations, and who will be on duty
at all times the pool is opened.
In addition, a medical kit shall be available and access provided for a telephone
at all times. Safety equipment shall be on site as mandated.
All items and conditions as stated on Salem Health Department application form to
be completed at time of reinspection. (See State Regulations and Salem Board of
Health application form copies of which were given to you on Tuesday 5/26/87) .

Dear
I hope to be present at your next Board meeting on the 19th, when
I shall be seeking your advice and counsel with regard to the construc-
tion of apartments by Loring Hills Associates on a proposed road off
Loring Avenue.
The developer has been to the Board of Appeals for a Special Per-
mit to allow construction of condominums. I am enclosing copies of
G.L. Chapter 183A, Sections 1 through 19, which refer to the Law relat-
ing to Condominums.
I would appreciate your interpretation with regard to the following:
1. Does this in your opinion constitute a subdivision? Refer to Section,
1'7) .
2. What is the difference between multi-family dwellings and the con-
dominium type? T2ie appeal to the Board of Appeals stated - "Under
our zoning ordinances, condominums are permitted in a multi-family
zone as a special permit use" . My problem here is this - If this
is recognized as falling into the category of "Multi-family dwel-
lings" how can it be that the use of the word "condominums" excludes
this proposed construction from the restrictions and regulations of
the City Zoning Ordinance.
3. There are many applicable rules in the new amendment to the Zoning
Ordinance relating to Special Permit uses for R-3 districts, copies
enclosed; paragraph 4 for instance refers to the exterior walls of
all structures - "shall be of brick veneer, fieldstone , or other
similar quarry product" . Paragraph 3 refers to ( 2) two access
roadways, etc. the other paragraphs refer to other pertinent re-
strictions.
2 -
I know that .this is really a formidable and weighty collection of
data to present to you, particularly on a holiday weekend, and I must
apologize for the intrusion on your privacy, but I am not only confused
but nearly overwhelmed with all of these documents.
I would be very grateful if when I attend the Thursday night meet-
ing of your Board that you will advise me on some of these (or hopeful-
ly)_all of these matters.
Sincerely yours,
DJOB: cc

Dear Mr. Ahlborg:
An inspection of the above referenced property was conducted on
September 15, 1993. When inspecting the 3" columns in the corridors I
found there to be a 5/8" bow in 8' of each column.
This office would like a detailed engineering report explaining this
defect as well as an engineering report citing the corrective measures to
be used.
Additionally, this office would like to have a report from the
structural engineer regarding the differences in camber from 0" to 1 5/8"
in the planking.

NEW PLANS OF LORING HILLS ASSOCIATES:
These will be brought up at tonight ' s meeting. The architect brought a
set over for Jack Gray to see and Jack called me after he had had a chance
to look them over. The following are his comments with regard to this new
plan:
The plot plans shows turnarounds, one at end of 5v foot road off Loring
Avenue which seems to be all right; the other at secondary road within
the project is 3/'4 shaped, and Jack is concerned whether this would qual-
ify as a legitimate turnaround.
SecpAd plot plan shows utilities, does not appear to be complete, does
not show water lines but there is sewerage; this should be checked with
Neal Mitchell and should not be approved the way it is.
The plot plan shows every house or every unit having a garage, and the
quarter section plans show every unit with a basement garage, but the
elevations show every other unit with a garage, this should be clArified.
Then the way the turnarounds are shown, one car would be stot•bd in the
building and the other on the driveway, sort of back to back; that road-
way should be 18 feet wide.
The plot plan and the floor plans show the buildings to be staggered
instead of being one long row, they are saw-tooth even, and the ele-
vations of the front and rear of the buildings shown appear to be a
straight front; we should have an end elevation showing what the condi-
tion is where these buildings are staggered.
Plans are still in preliminary stage; even though they are single units
they are all joined together; there are no electrical plans and no plumb-
ing and heating plans.

DECISION ON THE PETITION OF LORING HILLS DEVELOPERS TRUST FOR PROPERTY
LOCATED AT LORI NG BILLS AVECIUE-R-3 DISTRICT
A hearing on the Petition of Loring Hills Developers Trust was held with
members Donald Eames, Arthur Labrecque, William Abbott, James Boulger and Douglas
Hopper _present. Notices were sent to abutters and others in accordance with. -
Mass. Gen. Laws, Chapter 808, concerning property located at Loring Hills Avenue
located in a R-3 Di.St.riCt.
The Petitioner requests a Special Permit for 160 Bed Nursing Home. .
Atty. John R. Serafini, 65 Federal S-treet, representedthePetitioners requesting
a permit for the use of the land for that purpose in order to comply with the Certifi-
cate of ??teed and then plans will be drawn up :in accordance with the State requirements.
Mr. Serafini noted that there is in excess of :.rive acres of land which is more
than enough to n.ccommoda.te this use. Over the years there have been many meetings
with the City Boards and the Developer to sec that an orderly development ofthe
land may evolve. An agreement was reached between _Ve City and the Developer that a.
portion of land will be acquired by the City as „ _3nEervation area and d,eveloc+ment
will be in accordance with the Planning Board' s controlled typedevelopment.
It is a privately financed project and will be privately run within the strict
riles of the Dept. of Health and will be a tax revenue project. Mr. Serafini noted
that it would be in the best interest of the citizens of Salem to have a facility of
this type available. It was also noted that there is more than ample space for parking.
Atty. David Moran, 23 Central Ave. , Lynn represented Peter and Barbara Maitland,
23 Cedarcrest Ave. noting their concern on any and all :support systems such as water,
sewerage, drainage, etc. They are also concerned about the placement of the facility
in order that it does not encroach onto the abutting properties as well as the hei hc.
limitation of the building and the future expansion of the facility.
Mr. Moran noted that hewould like the Board to take these things into ccnsid-
eration and that Mr.. & Mrs, Maitland would like to, go on record for. support of the
project. . .
Dlr. Frank Rubinstein, a condominium resident noted that he has no objection to �I
going ahead with the plans. i
Mr. Hyman London, _Loring Hills Ave. , expressed his concern about the increased
traffic :in the area and noted that this should be considered since there will be
visitors and delivery trucks that willbe using the roads.
" AUGUST 30, 1977
t ' D:(C:iSION ON PROPERTY IOCATED AT LORING HILLS AVE. Page 2
A letter from the Planning Board showed that there was an agreement with
the Planning Board and the developer for 150 bed nursing home. Mr. Serafini
noted that this was an error and the agreement was for 160 beds.
No one appeared in opposition.
The Board unanimously voted to grant a Special Permit for 150 bed Nursing Home
as noted in the Planning Board's statement subject to clarification of the number of
beds by letter from the Planning Board as to whether it should be 160 in total, the
number of parking spaces required will. be made avail.,—',I--; placement of the building
is approved to assure the Board that the building will not encroach on the abutting
properties; adequate drainage system is approved.
Note: Letter from the Planning Board received and attached confirming the number
of beds approved (160 in total) .
The Board found that it could grant the Special Permit requested for 160 bed
Nursing Home without substantial detriment to the surrounding neighborhood and with-
out derogating from the intent of the Salem 7nni.nq By-laws.

Alfred A. Dobbs , Esq. ,
City Solicitor - City of Salem,
70 Washington Street ,
Salem, Massachusetts
Dear Mr. Dobbs:
We are enclosing a copy of a letter sent to the City Engineer. We would
request your opinion regarding the particular application referred to in this
letter.
We call to your attention that this building is facing a new private way,
which at this time , we do not whether it will ever be dedicated to the City.
Therefor, we would request that you answer the following questions :
1. If all other provisions are met insofar as Zoning and Building Codes are
concerned, can this building be construed to be facing on a public way? .
2 . Whereas the developers have indicated at a meeting to which most of the
officials of the City Government were invited, that many other multiple
family dwellings will be built in this general area , would this area be
construed as a subdivision at the present time , and if not , is it possi-
ble to issue a building permit under such circumstances?
As Building Inspector, I am the enforcing agent in interpretating both
the Building Code and the Zoning Ordinance , and even though technically all
provisions might be provided for, there are other factors which I feel should
be considered.
Almost a year ago, a request was received from the Commonwealth, Depart-
ment of Public Works, that no building permits should be issued in areas
where road development is contemplated, and whereas to date , we have received
no official word from that department , is this sufficient reason not to issue
a permit?
Your official opinion would be greatly appreciated by this department
before any building permit is issued.
Very truly yours ,

Neal B. Mitchell, City Engineer,
City Hall ,
Salem, Massachusetts
Dear Mr. Mitchell :
For some time past , your department has advised us about the inadequa-
cy of sanitary sewerage , storm drainage , and domestic water services in
the upper part of Loring Avenue, in the areas adjacent to the existing and
proposed R-3 Zoning district.
Preliminary plans. of one building have been presented to this office ,
and from these preliminary plans , several items must be decided upon before
final approval can be given for this application. The application is for .
a. permit for one building in which fifty-seven apartments and business type
offices will be housed.
Over a year and a half ago , the devklopers of this area showed pre-
liminary plans which indicate that many multiple family dwellings will be
built in this area and adjacent areas if the land is rezoned for such. It
is conceivable that at some time , there will be a minimum of 1500 family
units in thin complex.
It is our understanding that the developer in his preliminary site
plan indicates that the sanitary sewer as shown on our pr9liminary plans
will be continued beyond this point , and many other multiple family dwel-
lings will be connected to this service which terminates in the existing
Loring Avenue sanitary drain. Therefor, we request that you answer with
a letter, the following questions :
1. Regardless of whether this application is for one building or for "X"
number of permits , and wherea.s everybody familiar with this project
knows that many other buildings will be built, will the existing Lor-
ing Avenue sanitary sewer be adequate for the ultimate project?
2. We would ask the same question relative- to the domestic water service .
3. And the same question in regard to the storm drainage .
From previous statements from your department, it is evident that the
water service in the vicinity of this project is only adequate to take the
proposed building, and as yet no concrete plan has been indicated to tell
how the rest of the multi family dwellings will be serviced. There have
been indications from the.---developer that he is attempting to obtain water
r
- 2
from the Town of Swampscott , which connects with the Metropolitan District'
Commission water service , and in some way he proposes that that line be
adapted and arrangements made with the City of Salem to meter same and
make applicable charges , the same as in normal water service . If this is
to be the final solution for this area., assurances should be received from
both the Town of Swampscott and the Metropolitan District Commission that
this type of service will be approved by them.
It is. ou.r understanding that the Planning Board intends to seek funds
for a feasibility study for new main services which will embrace sanitary
sewerage , storm drainage , water services , and possibly other utilites which
will run along somewhere between the main: tracks of the Boston and ,Maine
Railroad from the downtown business district and a point somewhere near the
Swampscott line.
Based upon the suppositio?h that this trunk service will be eventually
installed, perhaps within ten years time , the utilities within this entire
project be so designed that they could be connected to the future trunk
lines, or should all of the trunk lines nearest the Loring Avenue side of
the project be connected to the existing Loring Avenue services.
A permit can not be issued on this plan unless these questions are
definitely resolved and a. letter from you put ort file with this application.

Salem, Massachusetts Re: Loring Hills Development -
Water Supply
Dear Mr. O'Brien:
The water system in the vicinity of the Loring Hills
development has been found to be adequate for present plans.
The 6 inch water main in Loring Ave. should be disregarded
for the supply of the development. The extension of the water
line should be from the 16 inch main in Loring Ave. to allow
for the future demands of the development.
The static pressure at Loring Ave. and Maple Ave. on
the 16 inch main was 72 psi in tests performed some time ago.
The flow at the highest proposed hydrant in the site was cal-
culated as 1000 gpm at about 47 psi. The static pressure at
the high point in the site was figured at 69 psi since the
elevation at that point-is nearly the same -as the elevation
at--Loring and,Maple. iThese figures are not exact since there _
was no water system shown on the site plan of Loring Hills,
`dated','§ept. 18, 1969, which was used by—this department for
:the study.-

DECISION ON THE PETITION-QFV-I NN1N.ASSOC IATES REALTY TRUST .tTYr: ,.
FOR A SPECIAL PERMIT AT-7 LORING HILLS AVENUE—,(MAP 21 , PARCEL 96)
R-3 Zone
A hearing on this petition was held March 28, 1990 with the following Board
Members present: James M. Fleming, Chairman; Richard A. Bencal , Vice Chairman;
Edward Luzinski , Richard Febonio and Associate Member Peter Dore. 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 a Special Permit in order to
allow construction of a 123 bed nursing home in this R-3 zone.
The provision of the Salem Zoning Ordinance which is applicable to this request
for a Special Permit is Section IX D, which provides as follows:
"In hearing and deciding applications for Special
Permits, the Board of Appeal shall decide such wrt
questions as are involved in determining whether
such Special Permit should be granted, and shall
grant Special Permits with such conditions and
safeguards as are appropriate under this Ordinance
or shall deny Special Permits when not in harmony
with the purpose and intent of this Ordinance.
The Board of Appeals shall not have the power to
grant any Special Permit where use of land or structure
is specifically excluded from the district."
In more general terms, this Board is, when revieviing Special Permit requests.
guided by the rule that a Special Permit request may be granted upon a finding
by the Board that the grant of the Special Permit will promote the public health,
safety, convenience and welfare of the City's inhabitants.
The Board of Appeal , after careful consideration of the evidence presented at' the
public hearing, and after viewing the plans, makes the following findings of fact:
1 . The proposed use is in harmony with the intent specified in the City of
Salem Zoning Ordinance as it pertains to the R-3 zone with the grant of a
Special Permit.
2. Various letters of support for the project were read, as well as actual
testimony being voiced by health care professionals. and others.
3. Opposition,in the form of letters, was read and actual testimony was
also voiced by abutters and others.
4. The ownership and operation of the proposed nursing home would be by
persons with long experience in this industry. They have owned and,
operated such facilites in the area.

5. The need for nursing home bed space , as stated by petitioner and others,
is very acute.
6. Petitioner presented an actual recent traffic count study for visitors,
employees and delivery vehicles at similar facilities.
7. The 2 acre lot of the proposed nursing home is in close proximatey to an
area of mixed uses, such as commercial and residential .
8. The proposed use of a nursing home would be less of a traffic burden
than residential . The area is served by major roadways.
On the basis of the above findings of fact, and on the evidence presented, the y
Board of Appeal concludes as follows:
1 . The proposed use will promote the public good by meeting the need for
nursing homes.
2. The proposed nursing home is in harmony with the intent of the Zoning
Ordinance.
3. The proposed nursing home will promote the public health, safety convenience-
and welfare of the City's inhabitants.
Therefore, the Zoning Board of Appeal voted unanimously, 5-0, to grant the
Special Permit requested, subject to the following conditions:

Re: Public utilities in upper Loring Avenue
Dear Mr. O'Brien:
The first statement in your letter of October 29th would appear
to be more fitting if it was reworded to say, "for some time
past, your department has advised us about the possibility of
problems envolving sewage, drainage, and water supply in any
extensive development of the upper part of Loring Avenue."
This advise was intended to warn against the application of
"down-town" standards and assumptions to the high and outlying
areas at upper Loring Avenue, as was the policy at upper High-
land Avenue .
To claim inadequacy without knowing precisely of the maximum
use and the method to be used by the developer would be illogical.
Your assumption of a minimum of 1500 family units and "X" number
of building permits is, in no way sufficient data from which to
answer any of your questions. Adequate and complete planes by the
developer, are necessary before any consideration of the adequacy
of existing public facilities can be given.
Many of the problems referred to in the first paragraph of this
letter may be resolved by the developer, depending upon the method
he proposes to use . The proposed method should, of course, be com-
patible with the existing public facilities. Whether this is feas-
ible or not is for the developer to determine, and so indicate on
a complete set of plans submitted for the approval of the city.
It does not seem to be the function of the city to do engineering
or design work for a private developer. It also appears unlikely
that the city will ever reconstruct, greatly modify, or extensively
extend its multi million dollar facilities for the benefit of any
one developer,- at least without bonded assurance that the entire
project will be completed in a definite period of time.
The existing public water and sewerage extends about to the east-
erly corner of. the area under consideration. A recent water flow
test at this end of the water system indicated a camparntively
low supply through the existing old 6-inch main. It also indicated
a fair supply at the end of the 1.6-inch main near Maple Avenue.
This may, or may not, be adeq-uate.Zt=would-depend upon-the:method
used by-the developer,- such as larger mains and/or-suitable_ pump,
i�ng and storage facilities on the building site.

"� The public sewerage, at the end in question, consists of a 12-
inch pipe on a gradient of 0.024 and carries very little flow
at the present time. The problems involved with this serer line
are thousands of feet away from the above referenced area. These
problems are now under study by a consulting engineering firm
y, and it is hoped that recommended improvements will be made before
<-=�K any extensive progress is made on this project.
There is no public storm sewer at, or adjacent, to the above
referenced area. It is my understanding that the developer now
controls the land extending to the nearest public storm sewer
. and proposes to connect to that system, although I have seen no
suchlans. A
p portion of that system of storm sewer was installed
by the Massachusetts Department of Public Works. It discharges
into the pond at the rear of the Stop & Shop Supermarket. It seems
likely that permission of the Massachusetts Department of Public
Works should be obtained, by the developer, before discharging
large volumes of water into this sewer. This also cannot be properly
resolved until complete plans are submitted for proper review of
all agencies.
The above should clearly indicate that until complete plane of
the entire project (80 acres ) are submitted, there can be no reason-
able evaluation of the adequacy of existing public facilities to
serve the project. Futhermore, it is my opinion that the developer
should clearly show how he ultimately intends to use the existing
facilities with satisfaction to himself and no harm to others. In
other words, I believe it is up to the developer to plan for proper
service based on the existing public facilities. We will assist by
supplying basic data on the existing systems, but the solution of
his problem is strictly up to him.
At a meeting held in the Hawthorne Rotel on November 1,1967"by the
Loring Hills- Development Co. it was disclosed that about 80 acres
of land was proposed to be developed,- essentially as a high-rise
apartment complex. The developer's architect .stated that there :is
an adequate water supply for the proposed development. Regs. d'Ing
sewers, and their problems, he said that when they employ a, oivil
engineer I would be contacted on any such problems. No such contact
has occurred.
In my opinion, any permit issued without the prior approval'- of
complete development plans could well be the cause of new and.. "
future problems in this area. This, of course, is assuming that
a_major portion of the development will eventually, be constructed. .
Very truly yours,
.r . . r.. . . Neal. B - Mitchell:j.Y E
