Decision
City of Salem Board of Appeals
Petition of ERIC EASLEY,requesting a variance to allow the addition of two 14-foot dormers onto
the third floor of the existing building,which exceeds the maximum allowed building height of 2.5
stories,as set forth in Section 4.1.1 Table ofDimensionalRequirements of the Salem Zoning
Ordinance. The property is located at 19 NICHOLS ST (RI Zoning District):
A public hearing on the above Petition was opened on August 21, 2014 pursuant to M.G.L Ch. 40A, � 11.
The hearing was closed on that date with the following Salem Board of Appeals members present-. Ms.
Curran (Chair), Mr. Duffy,Mr. Watkins, Mr. Co,pelas (Alternate),and Mr. Tsitsmos (Alternate).
The Petitioner seeks Variances from the provisions of Section 4.1.1 Table of Dimensional Requirements of the
Salem Zoning Ordinance.
Statements of fact:
1. In the petition date-stamped July 24s, 2014, the Petitioner requested a Variance from the provisions
of Section 4.1.1 Table ofDimensional Reqgirements of the Salem Zoning.Ordinance to allow the addition
of two 14-foot dormers onto the third floor of the existing building, which exceeds the maximum
allowed building height of 2.5 stories
2. Aft. Easley,petitioner,presented the petition for the property at 19 Nichols Street.
3. The existing building.was previously illegally in use as a four-unit residence. It is a legal pre-existing
nonconforming three-family residence.
4. The property owner proposes to improve conditions in the third floor unit to bring the structure up
to building code.
5. The requested relief,.if granted, would allow the Petitioner to construct.an addition of two 14-foot
long dormers on'to the third floor of the existing building to bring the third-floor unit up to building
code standards.
6. At the public bearing, one member of the public expressed their opposition to the petition and
submitted a letter and photographs to the Board. Concerns included inadequate parking, noise, and
the intended use. The resident was also concerned that the dormers had already been partially
constructed before going before the Board. Another member of the public asked about the adequacy
of the on'-site parking. No members of the public spoke in favor of the petition.
7. Mr. St. Pierre clarified that the construction prior to Board approval was a misunderstanding.
Construction was stopped and Mr. Easley applied to the Board.
8. Mr. Easley stated that an existing shed had been removed from the driveway to allow space for 6 cars;
Mr. St. Pierre reminded the Board that the Petitioner was not proposing changes to parking, therefore
no relief was needed.
City of Salem Board of Appeals
September 10,2014
Project: 19 Nichols Street
Page 2 of 2
The Salem Board of Appeals, after careful consideration of the evidence presented at the public hearing,
and after thorough review of the petition, including: the application narrative and plans, and the
Petitioner's presentation and public testimony, makes the following findings that the proposed project
meets the provisions of the City of Salem Zoning Ordinance:
Findings
1. Literal enforcement of the provisions of the Ordinance requiring a maximum allowed building height
of 2.5 stories would be a substantial and unique Hardship as the existing third floor legal unit does not
meet current building code requirements.
2. The proposed two 14-foot long dormers would not be a substantial detriment to the public good,
particularly as the petitioner has created more space for on-site parking.
3. The desired relief may be granted without nullifying or substantially derogating from the intent or
purpose of the City of Salem Zoning Ordinance.
On the basis of the above statements of facts and findings, the Salem Board of Appeals voted five(5)in favor
(Mr. Watkins, Ms. Curran, Mr. Tsitsinos, Mr. Copelas and Mr. Duffy) and none (0) opposed to grant the
requested Variance to allow the addition of two 14-foot dormers onto the third floor of the existing building,
subject to the following terms, conditions, and safeguards:
1. The Petitioner shall comply with all city and state statutes, ordinances, codes and regulations.
2. All construction shall be done as per the plans and.dimensions submitted to and approved by the
Building Commissioner
3. All requirements of the Salem Fire Department relative to smoke and fire,safety shall be strictly
adhered.
4. Petitioner shall obtain a building permit prior to beginning any construction.
5. Exterior finishes of the new construction shall be in.harmony with the existing structure.
6. A Certificate of Occupancy is to be obtained.
7. A Certificate of Inspection in to be obtained.
8. Petitioner is to obtain approval from any City Board or Commission having jurisdiction including, but
not limited to,the Planning Board.
