MASS. 01970 745-0215 October 6, 1983 Mr. Ray Buso Ms. Martha Jarnis 155 Federal Street Salem, MA 01970 Dear Mr. Buso and Ms. Jarnis: Thank you for coming to our meeting last night. I am enclosing a Certificate of Hardship for the roofing job at 155 Federal Street which was approved by the Commission later in the meeting. The Commission elected to approve a Certificate of Hardship rather than the customary Certificate of Appropriateness because of the special complications involved in this application. The feeling of the Commission was that though ultimately the financial liability belonged to the contractor, this would probably not be determined without further delay and possible litigation. Ultimately then through delay, possible inner water damage and costs of litigation, a financial hardship would be suffered by you, the owners. Hence, the Certificate of Hardship was approved for a roofing color that departs from our guidelines but that does not cause substantial derogation from the intents of histort districting. I want to thank you for your cooperation in this matter. Hopefully all further contacts with our Commission will be smooth and uneventful! Welcome to Salem. Yours truly, GU�-IIPCt`LaK�n�� Eli abeth B. Wheato Chairman EBW:ngk �M sr l 4 � S' � r Salem is-f-crical Commission CITY HALL. SALEM.

September 27, 1983 SaaATSZ.f dISTGA/3ICAL C0:4ffSSIO;S I' Chairman r October 4, 1983 Ms. Elizabeth Wheaton, Chairman Salem Historical Commission One Salem Green Salem, MA. 01970 Dear Ms. Wheatont As abuttors to the property of Raymond Buso and .Martha Jarnis , 155 Federal Street , we wish to express our views as to the sit- uation regarding their choice of roofing material. We feel they acted in an intelligent manner in their choice of roofing for their home . They had carefully researched the neighborhood before making their choice and the color they chose is not incompatible with the other roofs in the neighborhood. The color they chose is what is now present on our house at 153 Federal Street. While understanding and supporting the Commission's desire to simulate the slate previously present, we feel Mr. Buso and Ms. Jarnis 's choice of color is a reasonable one and certainly preferable to putting a darker color on the front part of the house and leaving the lighter grey on the back and ell. Additionally, we feel forcing them to remove what roofing that has already been completed in favor of the darker grey would further exacerbate the hardship under which they are presently living. Already water damage has taken place in the interior of the house . We , as their immediate abuttors , urge the Historical Commission to reach an expedient and equitable solution to this problem. While understanding and supporting the mandate of the Commission, we feel the circumstances warrant further review. Thank you for the opportunity to 'comment on this matter. Si cerely yours , / C.� c, A Dale and Glenn Yale 153 Federal Street Salem, MA . 01970
