DECISION ON THE PETITION OF CONSTANTINOS GEORGAKIS FOR A CITY
SALEr1MASS,
VARIANCE ATCTREIM\'T- ST. (R-2)
A hearing on this petition was held on March 25, 1987 and continued until
April 15, 1987 with the following Board Members present: James Hacker, Chairman;
Richard A. Bencal, Secretrary; Messrs. , Fleming, Luzinski and Strout. 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.
Petitioner requests a Variance to allow a single family home to be converted to
a two family in this R-2 district.'
The Variance which has been 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 involy(
substantial hardship, financial or otherwise, to the petitioner; and
c. desirable relief nay 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 building was previously a two family;
2. A second unit would increase the amount of residential units in the City;
3. There are no vacant lots adjacent to the property which the petitioner
could purchase;
4. The area is zoned two family and thus the petition would be in
harmony with the district.
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 affect the subject property but not
the district generally; .
2. Literal enforcement of the 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 of the purpose of the ordinance.
