NOTICE OF DENIAL OF APPLICATION
FOR A WAIVER OF DEMOLITION DELAY ORDINANCE
RE: 401 Jefferson Avenue
On Wednesday, May 21, 2008, the Salem Historical Commission unanimously voted to deny a Waiver of the
Demolition Delay Ordinance from Esther Realty,Inc.for demolition of single family house and single car garage.
The denial was due to there being no plans for the use of the property that require immediate removal of the
structures and the desire by the Commission to explore potential reuse.
I attest that this is an accurate record of the vote taken, not amended or modified in any way to this date.
