: .: g� .
published in the Salem Evening News in accordance with Massachusetts
were properly p g
General Law Chapter 40A.
Petitioner, owner of the property, requested a Variance or Special Permit from
minimum side yard requirements of ten (10) feet, for and R-2 district in order to
allow construction of a single story six (6) foot by twelve (12) foot (61xi2' )
laundry room addition to the exiting dwelling unit at 9 Liberty Hill Avenue which
is located in an R-2 district.
The Variance which the petitionerhas requested may be granted upon a finding of
the Board that:
a. special conditions and circumstances exist which especially affect the
land, building, or structure involved and which are not generally
affecting other lands, buildings and structures in the same .district;
b. literal enforcement of the provisions of the Zoning Ordinance would in-
volve substantial hardship, financial or otherwise, to petitioner; and
c. desirable relief may be granted without substantial detriment to the
public good and without nullifying or substantially derogating from the
intent of the district or the purpose of the Ordinance.
The Board of Appeal, after hearing the evidence presented at the hearing, and
after viewing the plans, makes the following findings of fact:
1 . The shape of the lot at 9 Liberty Hill Ave. is irregular and
unique, and its best use is for a single family dwelling;
2. Four abutters and neighbors signed statements that they had no
objections to the proposed additions;
3. The petitioner testified as to the absolute need for the proposed
addition.
On the basis of the above findings of fact, .and on the evidence presented at the
hearing, the Board of Appeal concludes as follows:
1 Special conditions exist which especially affect this property but do
not generally affect other lands, buildings or structures in the same
district;
2. Literal enforcement of the Zoning Ordinance would involve substantial
hardship to the petitioner; and

3. The relief requested can be granted without substantial detriment to the
public good and without nullifying or substantially derogating from the
intent of the district or the purpose of the Ordinance.
Therefore, the Zoning Board of Appeal voted 4-1 , Mr. Bencal voted present, to I,
grant the petitioner relief from the ten (10) foot side yard requirement and to
allow the petitioner to construct a single story, 6' x 121 laundry room addition
to the existing dwelling unit at 9 Liberty Hill Avenue, encroaching on the north
side yard to a distance of five (5) feet.
