Waiver of Frontage- Decision
For the Petition of Karen Valliere for a Waiver of Frontage at 19-21 Barcelona Avenue
A Public Hearing on this petition was held on, and closed on April 17, 2008 with the following
Board members present: Charles Puleo (Chair), Tim Kavanaugh, John Moustakis, Christine
Sullivan, Gene Collins, Pam Lombardini and Tim Ready. Notice of this meeting was sent to
abutters and notice of the hearing was published in the Salem Evening News.
Karen Valliere, owner of the property, is requesting a waiver from frontage requirements from
the Subdivision Regulations and under MGL Chapter 41, Section 81R, to allow the property
located at 19 Barcelona Avenue to be subdivided into two lots. This section states that "A
Planning Board may in any particular case, where such action is in the public interest and not
inconsistent with the intent and purpose of the subdivision control law, waive strict compliance
with its rules and regulations, and with frontage or access requirements specified in the law..."
The waiver from frontage is being granted for the property located at 19-21 Barcelona Avenue,
specifically for the new lot at 21 Barcelona Avenue (created by combining Lot 732 and Lot 735),
as shown on the plan titled, "Plan of Land located in Salem, MA"prepared by Eastern Land
Survey Associates, dated March 24, 2008, upon the findings by the Board that:
1. The action is in the public interest and not inconsistent with the intent and purpose of the
subdivision control law
2. Special circumstances exist which especially affect the property, not generally affecting
other properties;
Therefore, the Planning Board voted by a vote of seven(7) in favor (Puleo, Kavanaugh,
Moustakis, Sullivan, Collins, Lombardini, Ready), and none opposed to grant the waiver from
frontage requirements.
I hereby certify that a copy of this decision is on file with the City Clerk and that a copy of the Decision
and plan is on file with the Planning Board. �1 p
