This is to determine use only and in no way is meant to confirm or deny whether said property is in compliance with all building, plumbing, gas, electric, fire or health codes. Pete* Zoning Enforcement Officer September 9, 1993 To Whom It May Concern: I have lived.at_S..Var rn y45treet since October 1985. Prior to that my sister lived here in the second floor apartment since 1979. The owner who lived on the first floor rented the second floor to someone named Manning back in the early 1970's and before that their son James McDuff occupied the apartment in the 1960's. I can honestly say that this house has been constantly used as a two family dwelling. Sincerely, David J.

COMMISSIONER I TO: Zoning Enforcement, Officer FROM: Anonymous Salem Resident SUBJECT: Zoning Violation This is to inform you that there is a zoning violation at 5 Varney Street, Salem, Mass. The individual at that address is operating a small engine and motorcycle repair business from his garage. This operation results in noise exceeding OSHA limits. The occurrence of these disturbances are during both nighttime and daylight hours. At any time there are as many as five to ten motorcycles and snow blow- ers on the property. Please remedy this situation under the existing zoning regulations, which permit my identity to remain confidential. Some of the motor cycle owners look threatening.
