My concern has to do with the fence portion of the application as there is a possibility that I cannot be present at this meeting. Would it be possible to give me more details so that I can determine what to write in a letter to be read in my absence if need be? More specifically: 1. Is it the fence that abuts my property at 188?I am assuming it is.If not,disregard the following concerns. 2. How does the actual course of the fence determined?I know that the land was recently surveyed by a surveyor hired by Pam. There are only two markers that I can see-one at the rear of the property and one at the front(street side).Can the proposed new location of the fence be clearly marked prior to construction? 3.There is a large,beautiful maple that is on the property line. What are the considerations/options for constructing a fence around it- making sure that the health of the tree is not compromised? 4. When will the fence be moved?Can I be notified so that I can keep my dog and children(from her dogs)safe while there we "holes"? 5. Possibly a mute point but...WHY does Pam want(presumably)to move a recently installed fence(2-3 years ago)only what seems to be inches from its current location?In my opinion it seems to be a costly production to gain what seems to be a only few in-hes. She hasn't been the most reasonable neighbor in the past 18 months. Thank you for your time and thoughts on this issue.I apologize for the short notice but the original meeting date was changed and I have a family event that I would rather not miss if possible.

However, I have been informed by this same neighbor that she plans to move and add to her fence. I do not see her on the agenda for the next Historic Comm. agenda and I want to make sure an appropriate, approved fence is installed,not an extension of the existing 6' along the side yards.

I was given your name as the person to contact with regards to the following issue via Jen Wessell, Mayor's Office. I know that you're busy so I thought giving you my concern via email might be most effective. Please do not hesitate to call if you would rather have a conversation. My name is Leslie Levesque and, along with my husband,Kevin and our two school-aged children, live at 188 Federal Street here in Salem. We have lived at this residence for 12 years I and have enjoyed it,and our neighbors, for the most part until more recently. Although on the boarder, we live in the McIntire Historic District and appreciate the HSC guidelines as a way to preserve both the history and aesthetically pleasing attributes of Salem. We have invested well over$100,000 since we bought our house in 2003,always improving and maintaining the historical integrity of our house and property. We expect our neighbors to do the same. Unfortunately, our abutting neighbor,Pamela Waldron, residing at 192 Federal Street, has constructed a structure,with a concrete foundation,framed 2x4 walls and ceiling, covered with wire mesh for housing her exotic bird collection in the warmer months. Not only is this structure a complete eyesore, the inhabitants have extremely raucous calls, often heard 4 or more houses away, attested to by friends that live this distance away. My concerns are: 1. Proper procedures for both Building Permit and Historical Commission Guidelines were not followed or considered. 2.. Even IF above said structure was approved and a permit was issued, it is not in compliance with with Salem's city ordinance,3.2.4-Accessory Buildings and Structures,because it directly,within 1 foot, abuts the property line. If it is to be considered a"coop" then, as you know,the requirements are 10' of side lot lines according to 3.2.7- Urban Agriculture. 3. The noise that the birds make from this "aviary": Specifically, the Scarlet and Blue and Gold Macaw parrots. Two or more of these birds are in this structure at any given time and a large macaw can scream at the same decibel (-120-140db) level as a rock concert or an idling jumbo jet engine- not exactly pleasant or a sound that"annoys or disturbs a reasonable person of normal sensitivities" Sec.22-1. Also noteworthy: This issue was reported on the app Commonwealth Connect on April 12, 2015. See attached photo. It has been reopened as of this afternoon. Thank you for taking the time to read and address my concerns regarding the accessory building located in the yard of 192 Federal Street. I plan to be a long-time resident of Salem and want to see that we all work together to ensure the unique history and success of Salem into the future. I truly appreciate your expertise and assistance regarding this issue. I look forward to hearing your response in the near future.

HOMEOWNERS SIGNATURE * w 6%.- k APPROVAL OF BUILDING OFFICIAL Note: Three family dwellings 35,000 cubic feet, or larger, will be required to comply with State Building Code Section 127.0, Construction Control. 8 HOME OWNER 'S EXEMPTION The Code state that : "Any Home Owner performing work for which a building permit is required shall be exempt from the provisions of this section (Section 109. 1 . 1 - Licensing of Construction Supervisors) ; provided that If a Home Owner engages a person(s) for hire to do such work , that such Home Owner shall act as supervisor . " Many Home Owners who use this exemption are unaware that they are assuming the responsibilities of a supervisor (see Appendix 0, Rules and Regulations for Licensing Construction Supervisors , Section 2. 15) . This lack of awareness often results In serious problems, particularly when the Home Owner hires unlicensed persons. In this case our Board cannot proceed against the unlicensed person as It would with licensed Supervisor . The Home Owner acting as supervisor Is ultimately responsible. To ensure that the Home Owner Is fully aware of his/her responsibilities, many communities require, as part of the permit application, that the Home Owner certify that he/she understands the responsibilities of a supervisor . On the last page of this Issue Is a form currently used by several towns. You may care to amend and adopt such a form/certification for use In your community. �Ft� ua•t•�or!g act Tavc4H � S L">:� 1'-' 4Clto�� it ? eau{-o ISSUE fi c�cc.vaat�cY �e��rT FISHit��-r L..IcEi-l'�Ej 0 e Ma rj _atY� � d fes.'. •� � � --- ` E—i EL r•I QGC:r • 7 •\ � 1Fea� va-��. extx�- _ ro%QA z.� 1✓ 2x4 PTT/ ?-,4 iY Rzpbc. =.;st.�q 2x9 Pr 5/A L"'Pr - - --- , ,T - - 2IL6 (2) -Tv P st>99 he 2x6 ryT- � \ \ pp \ i I I Zxlt{YP L / SCALE V4�= v-o" r SAME S W. n' "ARA 'TR- \c\ ?- V'EoF,Ral, Sr SP,LEK MA t i
