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 request a Variance from parking for the property located at 10-14 Lynch Street (R-3) . The Variance which has been requested may be granted upon a finding of 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 land, buildings, or structures in the same district. 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 derogation from the intent of the district or the purpose of the Ordinance. The Board of Appeal, after careful considerations the evidence presented at the hearing, makes the following findings of fact: 1. Petitioner seeks a variance to allow on-street parking for cars belonging to the future residents at 10-14 Lynch Street. 2. Petitioners pian to convert the building on this property to a multi- family unit for 12 families without changing the footprint of the existing structure, which was previously a rooming house is currently unoccupied. 3. Because the lot size is incompatible with a parking lot that could accommodate the required number of parking places, the building would be unusable as a multi-family dwelling if a parking variance were not granted. On the basis of the above findings of fact, and on the evidence presented at the hearings, the Board of Appeal concludes as follows: 1. Special conditions exist which especially affect the subject property and not the district in general. 2. Literal enforcement of the provisions of the Zoning Ordinance would involve substation hardship to the petitioner. 3. Desirable relief can be granted without substantial detriment to public good and without nullifying and substantially derogating from the intent of the district or purpose of the Ordinance. V DECISION OF THE PETITION OF RAYMOND AND RONALD FALITE REQUESTING A VARIANCE FOR THE PROPERTY LOCATED AT 10-14 LYNCH STREET (,R-3 ; . page two Therefore, the Zoning Board of Appeal voted unani=usly, =-0 to graft the variance requested, subject to the following conditions: 1 .

All. requirements of the Salem Fire Department relative to smoke and fire safety shall be strictly adhered to. 4. Petitioner shall obtain a .building permit prior to beginning any construction. 5.

Rent Withholding(Massachusetts General Laws,Chapter 239,section 8A): If Code Violations Are Not Being Corrected you may be entitled to hold back your rent payments.You can do this without being evicted if: A. You can prove that your dwelling unit or common areas contain code violations which are serious enough to endanger or materially impair your health or safety and that your landlord knew about the violations before you were behind in your rent. B. You did not cause the violations and they can be repaired while you continue to live in the building. C. You are prepared to pay any portion of the rent into court if a judge orders you to pay it (For this,it is best to put the rent money aside in a safe place.) 2. Rcp it naa d Defies?(Massachusetts Genual Laws,Chapter 111,section 127L):The law sometimes allows you to use your rent money to make the repairs yourself.If your local code enforcement agency certifies that there are code violations which endanger or materially impair your health,safety,or well-being,and your landlord has received written notice of the violations, you may be able to use this remedy.If the owner fails to begin necessary repairs(or to enter into a written contract to have them made)within five days after notice or to complete repairs within 14 days after notice,you can use up to four months'rent in any year to make the repairs. 3. Retaliatory Rent Increases or Evictions Prohibited(Massachusetts General Laws,Chapter 186,section 18,and Chapter 239, section 2A):The owner may not increase your rent or evict you in retaliation for making a complaint to your local code enforcement agency about code violations.If the owner raises your rent to tries to evict within six months after you have made the complaint,he or she.will:have.to-sbow.a good reason for the increase or eviction which is unrelated to your complaint.You may be able to sue the landlord for damages of he or she tries this. 4. Rent Receivership(Massachusetts General Laws,Chapter 11, section 127 C-H):The occupants and/or the Board of Health may petition the District or Superior Court to allow rent to be paid into.cotut rather than to the owner.The court may then appoint a "receiver" who may spend as much of the rent money as is needed to correct the violation.The receiver is not subject to a spending limitation of four months'renL 5. Breach of Warranty of Habitability:You may be entitled to sue your landlord to have all or some of your rent returned if your dwelling unit does not meet minimum standards of habitability. 6. Unfair and Decr_.ntive Practices(Massachusetts General Laws,Chapter 93A): Renting an apartment with code violations is a violation of the consumer,protection act and regulations, for which you may sue an owner. The information presented above Is only a summary of the law.Before you decide to withhold your rent or take any other legal action, it is advisable that you consult an attorney.If you cannot afford to consult an attorney,you should contact the nearest legal services office, which is: Neighborhood Legal Services 37 Friend St. Lynn, MA 01902 (617) 599-7730 Alk CITY OF SALEM BOARD OF HEALTH Salem, Massachusetts 01970 JOANNE SCOTT,MPH,RS.CHO NINE NORTH STREET HEALTH AGENT Tel:(508)741-1800 Fax:(508)740-9705 July 7, 1994 Roland A.L'Heureux 11 Harbor Street Salem,Ma. 01970 Dear Mr.L'Heureux: In accordance with Chapter 111,Sections 127A and 127B of the Massachusetts General laws,105 CMR 400.00:State Sanitary Code,Chapter I:General Administrative Procedures and 105 CMR 410.000:State Sanitary Code,Chapter 11:Minimum Standards of Fitness for Human Habitation,an inspection was made of your property at 14 Lynch Street Salem,Massachusett,by Jose Diaz on June 29,1994.The following violations of the State Sanitary Code were noted,as checked off: CMR 410:600 Storage of Rubbish and Garbage - CMR 410:601 Collection of Garbage and Rubbish. ,X CMR 410:602 Maintenance of Areas Free From Garbage and Rubbish(A through D) Reg.#7 s.3.10 Board of Health Regulation Description of Violations: A complaint was received by this department and a inspector noted trash in the rear of the abandoned building.The inspector also noted that the rear door of the building was open and accessible to unauthorized entry. 410.600:_Storage of Rubbish and Garbage - - (A) Garbage or mixed garbage and rubbish shall be stored in watertight receptacles with tight-fitting covers.Saidreceptacles and covers shall be of metal or other durable,rodent-proof material.Rubbish shall be stored in receptacles of metal or other durable,rodent-proof material.
