land, structures, and uses, provided, however, that, such change,
extension, enlargement or expansion shall not be substantially more
detrimental than the existing nonconforming use to the neighborhood.
In more general terms, this Board is, when reviewing Special Permit requests,
guided by the rule that a Special Permit request may be granted upon a finding
by the Board that the grant of the Special Permit will promote the public health,

hearing, makes the following findings of fact:

In response to the attached complaint, I inspected
property located to the rear of the V.F.W. Building on
Essex Street with following findings:
1 . The property is presently vacant.
2. The front ingress door was not secure.
3. There is a considerable amount of trash on the site.
I view of the above I feel this complaint would be better
directed to your department. Please advise Ms. Earle of your
findings and action's taken.

Dear Mr._ Munroe:
s
I am writing to inform you that the house across
the street from us on White Street (behind the VFW) is
dangerous and hazardous to the safety of the public.
There are many windows which are wide open and the place
overall is falling apart. I think the windows should
at least be boarded up.
I will be calling you in a few weeks to hear what
is being done with the house. In the meantime, please
call me at home (741-0569) or at work (727-0600) if you
have any questions.
Thank you.
Sin erely,
Dorot}y Earle, President
