Building Dept. 1 Salem Green Salem, MA., 01970 I recently received two letters with certain claims that there were inappropriate activities at 39 Prince St. I came down to see you and am writing this letter as a result of our conversation. The first letter indicated that on the third and the fourth floor there were " more than three unrelated persons living there". On the fourth floor are Paul and Esther. They live alone. Last year their daughter lived with them but has long since moved out. On the third floor are three college girls, enclosed is a copy of their lease. Im sure they have friends over from time to time. I absolutely dont encourage any of the tenants to have folks sleep over.....but Im sure they all do. It's not in my or the buildings best interest but not something I can control either. The second letter claimed that there was an illegal auto repair business going on, This is an even more ridiculous allegation. The guy has been renting that garage for nine years and has a full time job. I am there several times a week and have never seen any " illegal auto repair business ". Enclosed is a lease I prepared( although I never had one with a clause referring to"no commercial eneterprise allowed ". Mr. Ortiz will be happy to speak to you on this matter as well. He'll need an interperter as his English is very bad. I have several properties around town and am very careful about any inappropriate activities. I was a little surprised by these notices and really don't believe that there's any basis for them and therefore not sure what prompted them in the first place. Please let me know if I can be of further assistance.
