DECISION ON THE PETITION OF WITCH DUNGEON MUSEUM, INC. FOR A
VARIANCE FOR 16 LYNDE ST. (B-5)
A hearing on this petition was held September 19, 1990 with the following Board
Members present: Richard Bencal , Chairman; Edward Luzinski , Vice Chairman; Mary
Jane Stirgwolt, Acting Secretary; Richard Febonio and Associate Member John Grady.
Notice of the hearing was sent to abutters and others and notices of the hearing
were properly published in the Salem Evening News in accordance with Massachusetts
General Laws Chapter 40A.
The petitioners are requesting a Variance pursuant to Section 3-56 and Section
3-34 of the City of Salem Ordinance relating to Signs and Billboards to allow
the installation of a directional sign on the east; bound side of North Street
indicating directions to the Witch Dungeon Museum 'which is located in a B-5 zone.
The Variance which has been requested may be granted upon a finding by this
Board that:
a. special conditions and circumstances exist which especially affect the land,
buildings 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 involve
substantial hardship, financial or otherwise, to the petitioner;
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 careful consideration of the evidence presented at the
hearing, and after viewing the plans, makes the following findings of fact:
1 . That it is in the best interests of the community to promote
tourist attractions within the City of Salem.
2. 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.
On the basis of the above findings of fact, and on the evidence presented, the'
Board of Appeal concludes as follows:
1 . Special conditions exist which especially affect the subject property but
not the district in general .
2. Literal enforcement of the provisions of the Zoning Ordinance would involve
substantial hardship to the petitioner.
