PERMIT FOR 10 PLEASANT ST. (R-2)
A bearing on this petition was held September 29, 1987 with the following Board
Members present: James Hacker, Chairman; Messrs. , Bencal, Fleming, Strout and
Associate Member LaBreceue. Notice of the hearing was sent to abutters and others

accordance with Massachusetts General Laws Chapter 40A.
Petitioner, owner of the property, is requesting A special permit to convert an
existing two family dwelling into a three family dwelling in this R-2 district.
The provision of the Salem Zoning Ordinance which is applicable to this request
for a Special Permit is Section V B 10, which provides as follows:
Notwithstanding anything to the contrary appearing in this Ordinance
the Board of Appeal may, in accordance with the procedure and conditions
set forth in Section VIII F and IX D, grant Special Permits for
alterations and reconstruction of nonconforming structures, and for
changes, enlargement, extension or expansion of nonconforming lots,
land, structures, and uses, provided, however, that such change,
extension, enlargement or expansion shall not be substantially more
detrimental than the existing nonconforming use to the neighborhood.
In more general terms, this Board is, when reviewing 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, and after
viewing the plans, makes the following findings of fact:
1 . There are other multi-family dwellings in the surrounding neighborhood;
2. There was not opposition;
3. There will be adequate parking.
On the basis of the above findings of fact, and on the evidence presented, the
Board of Appeal concludes as follows:
1 . The granted of the requested Special Permit will be in harmony with
the district and will promote the convenience and welfare of the
City's inhabitants.
2. The relief requested can be granted without detriment to the public good
and without nullifying or substantially derogating from the intent of the
district or the purpose of the Ordinance.
