JANUARY 8, 1981
I am writing this letter to clarify our application for a Beano License in the City
of Salem. Our sole purpose is to have one Beano with this license. The State no longe
issues one-day licenses; therefore we .need to apply for a full license.
We plan to operate our one-day Beano on Sunday, February 8, 1981 for five (5) hours
between the hours of 12:00 Noon and 6:00 P.M. at the Salem Moose Hall, 319 Highland
Avenue. The purpose of this one-day Beano is to promote and raise monies for our
programs for our Weekend with the Stars Telethon for Cerebral Palsy on January 17 and
18 which will be televised over MSTAC - TV, Channel 7.
I assure you that we will return our Beano License to the State Lottery Commission
immediately after this event. This is the arrangement that we have made with the
State Inspector and the Salem Moose. If this event is successful, we will reapply next
year for a license under the same conditions; i.e. for a one-day Beano.
I hope that this letter clarifies our application for a Beano License. I thank you
for your efforts in gathering for us the necessary signatures.
Our best wishes for a Happy New Year.
Respectfully,
S/ Andrew J. Baumgartner, Executive Director

below:
3ANUARY 22, 1981
LAND LAND BLDG. TOTAL
NAME LOCATION AREA VALUE VALUE VALUE
Pickering School 181 North St. 1.5Ac. 120,000 773,100 893,100

The values carried on the improvements do not necessarily reflect present worth of
the buildings. The assessments carry an "in use" connotation. Reappraisals of the
buildings would be appropriate for any one of several viable reasons, such as deter-

The status of the Crow Club should be thoroughly researched to ensure that the
proper determination is made on the existing relationship between the City and the
Club.

JOINT PUBLIC HEARING WITH PLANNING BOARD-OONDO CONVERSION
A Joint Public Hearing of the City Council and the Planning Board was held in the
Council Chamber on Thursday, January 29, 1981 at 7:30 P.M. for the purpose of discussing
the Conversion of Rental Housing to Condominiums. Notice of this meeting was posted on
January 23, 1981 at 1:17 P.M. and advertised in the Salem Evening News on January 15,
1981 and January 22, 1981.
Councillors Nowak, McCabe, and Giardi were absent. Councillor Centorino was also
absent, due to a death in the family.
Councillor John F. Nestor, III, presided.
Members from the Planning Board that were present are as follows:
Walter B. Power, III, Chairman; Abby L. Burns, David A. Goodof, William C. Wheaton,
Donald F. Hunt, Paul J. D'Amour, James P. Fox, Susan Madison, Planning Aide; and Jackie
Rybicki, Clerk.
Councillor Nestor introduced the members of the City Council, and then turned the
meeting over to Mr. Walter Power, Chairman of the Planning Board.
Mr. Paver called upon Councillor Nestor to explain the proposed zoning ordinance
t amendment as it relates to Condominium Conversion.
f
's Councillor Nestor furnished some background on the zoning amendment and the pre-
vious meetings held, and stated the Solicitor had drafted the ordinance to change the
zoning Ordinance. He explained that condo conversion was an extremely complex matter,
one that should be reviewed on a case by case basis, with units that are presently
rental stock. He also gave general guidelines of the ordinance.
�D
Councillor Grace stated that she was in receipt of two letters, one from North
Shore Elder Services, stating they were in favor of a strong condo conversion law. The
other letter was from Dr. James Amsler, Dean of Salem State College, who was also in
favor of a strong condo law with stricter guidelines. Councillor Grace requested that
these letters be submitted for the record and that all members of the Council and
Planning Board receive a copy.
Councillor Healey stated that in all probability, this ordinance is not designed
to reach all delicate issues. We will not, most likely, be able to deal with the
problem, such as low income renters, and the elderly, as they have a right to live in
this city. He further stated that he felt that we should have some sort of a preamble
f which would state the general climate and concern. He would like to see the preamble
to insure wiser decisions, and also provide language to make it clear that any harass-
ment by the property owner to the tenants would be seriously frowned upon. Something
that would provide the Board of Appeals to review the problems with harassment before
the date of the permit. He would exempt single family and owner-occupied homes from
the full changes of this ordinance. He put emphasis on the preamble, and touched on
III
{'m vacancy list and the elderly population who are involved in the conversion.
li,
'S ti
JANUARY 29, 1981
Mr. Paul D'Amour from the Planning Board, stated that he would like to see an amend-
ment which would exclude two family or duplex houses. He further stated that if the
supply of housing falls below a certain percentage, the Board of Appeal should not gran
variances without at least 1' parking spaces per unit.
Mr. Power then asked if anyone had questions. If so, please give name, address,
and group affiliation, if any.
Mr. Steve Hemenway of the Human Rights Commission, questioned the lack of explicit
rates and the fair housing strategy for the next 5 years.
Councillor Nestor explained that the ordinance is not meant to be to everyone's
satisfaction. The first section makes reference to the Master Plan, and the Board of
Appeal must make reference to the Master Plan.
Ms. Deborah Boggs, Director for Help for Abused Women and Children, spoke in favor
of the Ordinance, and would like to see something stronger. She stated that the Organ-
ization on the North Shore is for women who have had to leave their homes due to violence
and they have to relocate. It is very difficult to find housing in the Salon area.
If something isn't done with condo conversion, it will be much more severe for women
and children.

Mrs. Nancy Edmonds spoke, and stated that she is a battered wife, with children,
and had to stay at Help for Abused Women and Children. She looked for a place to live
with her 4 childresn, and had to move out of town, as Salem has no low-income lousing,
and condos will make the situation worse.
Mr. Jack Wachtel of the Salem Housing Alliance, stated that the Comptroller General
recognized the vacancy rate of less than 5% an emergency situation, and in Salem, the
vacancy rate is under 2%. He futher stated that Lynn is tied to an 8% vacancy rate.
New York City has life tenancy for its elderly. The Ordinance should have a grace
period for people who have been in the City for many years.
i
Ms. Joanne Gates, from North Shore Welfare Rights, read a statement from a displa
wcren, due to condo conversion. Her name was Barbara Crosby, and she was 71 years old.
Mr. Peter Barry, an attorney from Beverly who deals with legal services for low-
income people, said condos had a heavy impact on low-income and elderly people. In
1979-1980 he had 181 cases of elderly with eviction problems, and in the last six
months, 83 low-income people from Salem. That averages out to about 14 evictions per
month from the City of Salem, alone. Condos would be disastrous for the elderly, the
long-time residents of the city, the low-income people, those disabled, and the single-
parent families with children. The ordinance is only a stop-gap measure, but he urged
it be enacted.

Mr. Russell Eckel stated that he was in favor of a Condo Conversion restriction
Ordinance. He further stated that he was concerned about the long term impact of an
already seriously depleted housing stock. He supported Councillor Healey's rendi-
tion relative to a preamble, and said it was necessary to protect renters from Conver-
sion from large Property holders. Some people will never become homeowners. HUD
determined long ago that 25% of a person's income should be for housing. Low-income
people in this area are paying as much as 50% for housing. There should be a specific
vacancy rate tied in.
t
�i Ili Iirii Ms. Janis Santos was recorded as being against the condos. She lives at the cor-
ner of Hazel and Roslyn Streets, is on Aid for Dependent Children, and feels that apart
i! I
ments are too expensive to rent, never mind buying them.
Sister Jean LaFond, from St. Joseph's Parish, spoke and stated that she is aware
' of a large elderly population who are desperate. She has worked for Help for Abused
P
u
Women and Children for 2 years, and has seen women return to violent homes because
of the lack of other housing.
I � j Ms. Beverly Ramps stated that she lived in an apartment for 3 years, and had to
look for another. She finally found one.It costs her $300.00 per month for rent, and
I
IIi I she has to work two jobs to pay her rent, which just barely covers it.
Patrick Cahagan was in favor of the ordinance, but would like to see it much
t stronger. He felt that Salem should preserve its rental housing stock.
Ms. Carol Waggon from North Shore Community Action Program, stated that she has
some proposed amendments which she would like to see incorporated in the ordinance.
She gave copies to all Councillors and members of the Planning Board. She said that
� I
a housing emergency exists in the City of Salem, and that any relocation costs should
be provided for these people. The fines for violations should be $500.00, instead of
$100.00.

Ms. Marie Gates lived in Salem for 64 years, but had to move out recently to
i'
j Marblehead, as rents in Salem were too high. She has no transportation back to Salem,
{ I
and would like to move back to Salem, but cannot afford it.
I
I:
Ms. Katie Abraham supported the Ordinance, but wanted it stronger. She works in
social services, and housing is one of their serious problems.
Mr. George Polansky, a rentor in Salem, agreed with Ms. Abraham, and stated that 1�
` moving causes much stress, and even more stress when the decision for you to move is j
1y
made for you. He comerended the Council for looking into this now before it becomes
a serious problem.
i
Councillor Nestor stated that the City is composed of approximately 50%
rental units, and 26 out of 7,000 have been converted. He further stated that there
{ are strong feelings on both sides, and we are trying to get a consensus.
Mr. Wheaton of the Planning Board said people did not want to move, and they did

not want changes, but he said it is a mistake to believe that condo conversion causes
a shortage. It allows for more people to become owners of property in the City.
Mr. Pacer thanked everyone for attending, and stated that their comments will be
taken into consideration when they make their recomiendation to the City Council.

RESOLUPION: Walter Power, IV and
Margaurite Clark for
BE IT RESOLVED: heroism during fire
That the Salem City Council officially cnd and publicly acknowledge the
heroic efforts of Walter B. Power, IV, and M. Margaurite Clark on the night of January
8, 1981. During a house fire at 22 Loring Avenue, these young adults disregarded their
own personal safety to save the life of a fellow human being. After a futile attempt
to rescue Mrs. Catherine Wallace from the burning dwelling, Ms. Clark had the presence
of mind to run next door for help. Walter B. Power, IV, then entered the home and brou-
ght Mrs. Wallace, who was unconscious, to safety.
It is the opinion of Deputy Fire Chief Robert J. Crowley that because of the
heavily involved fire and stroke conditions prevalent throughout the house, and the fact
that the Fire Department would not have known the exact location of Mrs. Wallace, that
Mr. Power did save Mrs. Wallace's life, and at some risk to himself.
BE IT ORDERED: That at a regular scheduled meeting of the Salem City Council,
Mr. Walter B. Power, IV, and Ms. Margaurite Clark be commended for their heroic efforts,

Fee Schedule, was then taken up.
The Council recessed at 9:45 P.M. and reconvened at 9:47 P.M.
Councillor Grace requested a clarification of the vote to pass this Ordinance.
The Chair ruled that 7 votes are required.when 10 Councillors are present. If
one Councillor votes present, 6 votes will carry for adoption.
Councillor O'Keefe moved that Mr. Fletcher's letter, explaining the ordinance,
be entered into the record. It was so voted. The letter is as follows:
SEWER USE FUND:
July 1, 1979 - June 30, 1980
The "Credit" from SESD is a paper function, and no "real" dollars changed hands.
Salem Assessment for FY '81 was in the amount of $1,185,112.38 and that sum was
carried in your FY '81 budget - however, the plant closed full operation prior to the
is
154
MAY 14, 1981
new budget year and it was clear that $1,185,112.38 would not be expended. If we had
to meet that commitment, sewer use charges would have to be increased by 50-70o to meet
that oonmttment. Our actual payment for FY '81 (now paid in full) was $675,112.36.
I '
The FY '82 assessment is in the amount of $703,303.25. The Council should be
aware that all City costs for sewer operating (cleaning, repairs, fuel, electricity) al
come out of Sewer Use Charges. The amount of $106,458 is included in FY '82. The
aggregate FY '82 is therefore in the amount of $809,761.25.
With the existing rates (.454 and ,524) in effect, the City will have billings
of approximately $766,000 - with actual collections $75,000 to $90,000 lower due to
nonpayers who go into a lien situation; therefore, the City will be approximately
$120,000 short of meeting FY '82 cc mitments, without consideration for meeting costs
of emergency work.
I
The new rates are vital to meet our FY '82 requirements.
Councillor O'Keefe moved adoption of the Ordinance for second and final
passage. It was so voted by a roll call vote of 6 yeas, 2 nays, 2 present. Councillor
Healey, LeBlanc, Lovely, Nestor, O'Keefe, and Centorino were recorded as voting in the
' I
affirmative. Councillors Grace and Nowak were recorded as voting in the negative.

PUBLIC HEARING
A Public Hearing of the City Council was held in the Council Chamber on Monday,
June 8, 1981 at 7:00 P.M. for the purpose of discussing school Bus Transportation for
,
the upcoming school year. Notice of this hearing was posted on May 29, 1981 at 10:31
A.M. and advertised in the Salem Evening News on June 1, 1981.
Councillors Nowak and LeBlanc were absent.
Council President Joseph M. Centorino presided.
Councillor Centorino called the meeting to order and introduced all the Councillor ,
I Representative Ruane School Superintendent O'Donnell, Asst. Superintendent Salerno,
i1HI School Committee members Jones, Crawford, and Petersen, and Police Safety Officer Pierro
As the Order calling for the Public Hearing was submitted by Councillor Lovely,
the Chair called upon Councillor Lovely to make a statement.
Councillor Lovely thanked everyone for attending. He stated that the School
Committee has had seven public hearings. The School Department was required to cut 17%
from their budget, as other departnents were required to do the same. A number of con-
stituents called and stated that they were concerned about the children walking to schoo
I am primarily concerned about the kindergarden and lower grades. The purpose of this
nil is to protect the young children. Public safety in the school system will cost us, but
it's worth it.
h,
Superintendent O'Donnell made a statement, giving some historical perspective.
Ten years ago, there were 7 school busses on the street, and funds were reimbursed by
the state 95%. Through the generosity of the former School Committee, children who
II I
lived less than 2 miles from school were allowed to ride the bus. It was easy to be
1 u
i generous with the state's money. The School Committee allowed children to board the
bus within 1� miles, and this went on and on, and it was easy to respond to the needs
of the parents. We built the new high school; i mile away from the old high school, and
ll' 'li went from 7 busses to 19, due to the pleas of the parents, and the elimination of the
w'I Ocean Avenue Bridge, so consequently, it was a safety problem. Last year, we received
only 45% reimbursement from the state. Gasoline prices went from .80fi a gallon to
i
$1.45, and our bus bill was up to $500,000.00, which is taken directly from the property
taxes, which makes it a very expensive proposition. For next year, according to the
bids received, we expect an increase from $500,000.00 to $750,000.00 or $800,000.00.
G And even complying with the two mile law, many youngsters have been knocked off the bus.
�f We are currently waiting for the state statute to change and leave the option of who
I! I
gets bussed up to the City.
Mr. O'Donnell stated that Dr. Salerno had sent out a survey to the parents, and
asked if the parents would be willing to pay for the bussing. The people want the
j I
k kids bussed, but don't have the money to pay.
i
Councillor Lovely thanked Mr. O'Donnell for attending.
6 J
Councillor Giardi asked Mr. O'Donnell if there was any indication from the %Yor
JUKE 8, 1981 163
z
a
that if state aid comes, will any go back to you.
Mr. O'Donnell stated that the Mayor advised him that if any rroney comes back, you
will get your fair share.
Councillor Giardi stated that just to balance the budget, we need $500,000.00.
® Councillor O'Keefe stated that the Co mittee on Municipal Services is currently
studying school crossing guards, and the Mayor had indicated that there will be an up-
coming appropriation to fund this program at the current level.
Mr. Roger Leger, 64 Marlborough Raod, stated that the children cannot walk Marl-
borough Road to the Witchcraft Heights School. There are no sidewalks, and with the
speeding cars, it is unsafe.
Mr. Robert Dickson, 22 Warren Street, asked when will the state vote on this
bussing bill.
' Representative Ruane stated that the house version passed on Saturday evening,
which provided for 48% to 75% transportation funding. I would doubt that the trans-
portation money will be touched, and there are two bills currently in the legislature
that would give local option to the School Committees, as the general interest is the
safety factor for children.
Mrs. Cathy MCMath, 1 Watson Street, stated that her children go the Endicott School,
II
and today they brought home a notice that no crossing guards will be on Boston Street
I
next year. Her children are 5 and 7 years old, and they will have to cross Boston
Street alone. It was crucial to have a crossing guard.
Councillor Grace said that according to Officer Pierro, there will be crossing llf
guards at Rawlins Street and Federal Street. 9
Mr. Philip Saindon, Chairman of the Board of Health, asked what is deemed as a
hazardous area.
Mr. Summer Jones of the School Committee stated Highland Avenue, Loring Avenue,
and the Oliver School District.
Dr. Salerno stated that he sent notice to parents today, informing the parents
I
which areas do and do not have crossing guards. The safety of the children is the j
most important factor.
Representative Ruane stated that according to state statute, it is illegal to
i charge for bussing, as in a fee.
Dr. Salerno stated that he was aware of this, but wanted input from the parents.
Mrs. Barbara Riley, 7 Maple Avenue, stated that she has 3 children, and cannot
afford to pay for bussing. She questioned whether in the winter, would the city be
willing to shovel the sidewalks in order that the children may walk.
Councillor Nutting stated that as Loring Avenue and Highland Avenue are state
v
,1

C
highways, it cones under the state, and he was told that their money was running short.
Mr. Fletcher stated that the cost of sidewalks for Highland Avenue and Loring Avenue
was $77,000.00 for materials only.
i
'! Mr. Jack Murphy, 5 Mount Vernon Street, questioned how the school committee can
submit a budget knowing that kindergarden through 4th grade would be walking to school,
just because the law says two miles.
Mr. Jones answered that the education question is, once the children get there,
is the education viable and is the quality there.
III; Ms. Mary Anne Meagher, a primary grade teacher, question how receptive the
children will be to learn after having walked two miles. Their attention span is only
jj five to ten minutes as it is, and after the walk, they will be two tired to learn.
! ; Mrs. Gail Flynn, 1 Vale Street, stated that her daughter goes to the Witchcraft
j Heights School from Vale Street. How can the children cross the street safely, when >
II i.I
I4 , the other day I tried to cross at the Library and almost got hit.
Mr. Dick Williams, 3 Thomas Circle, asked if the state could maintain the
sidewalks.
�
Councillor Grace stated that the cooperative agreement from the state is that
dill; we must maintain the sidewalks.
Councillor Centorino further stated that the property owner has the responsibility
f in the city to shovel their sidewalks, under city ordinance.
Mrs. Donna Gagnon, 68 Salem Street, asked what time does school start.
Mr. Jones replied 8:00 A.M.
Mrs. Gagnon stated that the 5 year olds will have to leave home at 7:00 A.M.
because no 5 year old child walks a straight line. They doddle, and also, in the
winter, it is dark at that time.
lifI Councillor Healey stated that he would like to explain that the City Council
i
cannot add to the budget as presented by the Mayor. They can only cut.
!i Mrs. Donna Talbot, 9 Mount Vernon Street, stated that when we bought our house,
one selling factor was the neighborhood school. Now the school is closed, but we
were promised bussing. Now there is not bussing, no crossing guards, nothing. If we
III!
sell, and leave, the next person would be concerned about the sane thing.
V Mr. Mark Prisby, 11 Prescott Street, asked what time the schools opened, thinking ,f; I
l�'r he could drop the kids off before work.
Mr. Salerno stated that there would be no aides before 7:45 A.M. so the children
would be unattended prior to this time.

Mrs. Roberta Willians asked why the Mayor was not in attendance. The chair stated
that We cannot cm-pel the Mayor to attend, but Mr. Furfaro, the Mayor's representative,
was in attendance.
Mr. Furfaro stated that when and if we receive state aid, the Mayor's priorities
are, first, school bussing, and second, public safety and school crossing guards.
The Chair thanked everyone for attending, and declared the hearing closed at
9:15 P.M.

be replaced. This amounts to approximately 2,020 feet of pipe. There are sufficient
i
funds in the Sewer Use account, but the project will just about deplete this account.

Ladies and Gentlemen of the Council: Companies
I.
I hereby return to you your Ordinance entitled "Composition of the Fire Department
I
and Engine House" dated August 20, 1981, and received by me on August 24, 1981 DISAPP-
ROVED. II
i
I veto this proposed Ordinance for two reasons. First its monetary requirements
exceed the ability of the City to pay under the requirements of Proposition 235. Second
the designation of Fire Stations in the Ordinance constitutes an ultra-vires invasion
of the executive perogatives of this branch of our government. The Ordinance is
i
hereby defective in its entirety.
First, on May 5, 1981, I submitted to the Council my proposed budget to camp with
}; Proposition 2�. That budget in order to canply with Proposition 2'h required eliminatio
of more than 200 full time city jobs. It was my decision that no department should be
exempt from the cost reductions required by the citizens of Salem and the Commonwealth I(
of Massachusetts. Public Safety as the top public service priority received the least
reduction of any department in the City. Nevertheless, the Firemen's Union has waged
a relentless battle to wear down the Council and dilute the effect of 2' on it ranks.
The firefighter's union has boldly announced its intention to sue the City of Salem
whether the Mayor signs or vetoes the proposed Ordinance.
My budget message advised the Council that at least $500,000.00 of the new state
aid was required to balance the budget. The Council in reducing the budget by
$89,000.00, left the deficit at approximately $410,000.00. We in fact have received
$1,195,000.00 in additional state aid. Therefore, we would appear to have a "balance"
of $785,000.00 to use to restore services, or to retain for emergencies. In fact, t }
I
such a balance is an illusion.
I�
a
F
SEPTEMBFR 10, 1981
Although I have already done so publicly, let me review the priorities of this
administration for this "balance".
1. The School Committee is preparing a request for busing for the current fiscal
i
year, estimated to be between $310,000.00 and $350,000.00. I consider the busing of
our younger children to be the single most important safety requirement of our community
and will submit an appropriation request for sufficient monies to bus the K-5 childrenaj Id
li meet legal requirements. The School Committee is apparantly at least $389,000.00 short
in payment of Fiscal Year 1981 bills. Of that stun, General Laws Chapter 713 (Special
j � I Education) mandates payment of approximately $220,000.00. The balance is in the dis-
{ cretion of the City Council and you will receive the necessary request for a supplementa
appropriation at your next meeting. This office will not recommend the total appropriatLon
to be requested, but will expect the School Committee to absorb all costs other than
f
Special Education and monies transferred to free cash at the close of the final year
as associated with energy savings.
2. Present negotiations with the Police Patro]men's Union which are close to
settlement, indicate that an additional $150,000.00 to $200,000.00 will be necessary
to fund the Agreement based upon the budgeted number of patrolmen (61) .
l 3. The remaining municipal workers exclusive of hospital employees, presently
without a contract, are entitled to no less consideration in our collective bargaining
Ej
negotiations, than police, fire, and school employees are. The estimated cost of
¢ settling their contract is approximately $200,000.00.
4. Necessary replacement of police vehicles will cost $50,000.00 and restoring
the eliminated street lighting will cost $120,000.00.
The City's Personnel DepartrnPnt has prepared for me the costs associated with the
increased numbers of Fire Department employees called for in your Ordinance. Including
fringe benefits the figure is $308,000.00. This does not include the additional expens
; + associated with the use of the Engine 6 Firehouse at 29 Fort Avenue.
1
ill 1 Not only did the City Council at its last meeting pass amended Police and Fire
Department Ordinances which carry a total cost of $467,000.00, but without even inqui-
I ; .
! ring as to the cost, the Council ordered that certain street lights extinquished since
iP July 1, 1981 be reconnected. For the Council's information, the cost of complying with
dI i ; that particular order would be $35,000.00.
Y approach City y anon

II

SOMBER 10, 1981
If the City Council truly heard the mandate of our voters last November, and if
the City Council was sincere in determining that an additional $467,000.00 should be
spent for police and fire protection, then it should have reduced the Annual Budget
by an equal amount of money. Its failure to do so is a clear message to this office
that the City Council is not prepared to implement the will of the voters, and does
not appreciate the serious fiscal consequences of its actions. The cupboard is growin
bare.
Second, under our form of government (Plan B) (Mass. General Laws Chapter 43,
Section 53-58) the Mayor is the executive head of this City and has general supervision
' i
of all departments of our City's government. This office is also invested with impor-
tant functions in the area of municipal finance, including the preparation of the
annual budget. The City Council is the legislative, or policy making body of governmen .
u.
I am unaware of my request from the City Council to the Fire Department inquiring
as to the ability of the Department to operate 6 stations with a reduction of 12 fire-
men. This past year alone, with 111 firemen, the department exceeded its overtime
budget by several thousands of dollars. As you know, the Firemens' Union has rejected
this administration's offer to maintain all fire stations by agreeing to reduce the
mandatory overtime provision in the contract. I cannot in good faith cut services I�
and destroy livelihoods so that a chosen few can enjoy the luxury of overtime benefits.
I urge the City Council to sustain this veto in the interest of fiscal sanity -
i'
my administration needs your support to live within Proposition 2'h limits. The people
it
of this comTmity expect no less.
Very truly yours,

EMERGENCY MEETING
An Emergency Meeting of the City Council was held in the Council Chamber on Wednes-
7day, October 28, 1981 at 7:00 P.M. for the purpose of confirming the declaration of
emergency for a break on a 20" water line in Beverly, and assorted other water breaks
throughout the city.
This emergency affects the health, safety, and welfare of the citizens of the City
of Salem. (M.G.L. Ch. 39, S. 23A) Notice of this meeting was posted on October 28, 198
at 11:04 A.M.
i
Councillor George A. Nowak was absent.
Council President Joseph M. Centorino presided.
I
i
Councillor Lovely moved to suspend the rules to allow Mr. Anthony V. Fletcher, City
Engineer and Director of Public Services to address the Council on the matter. There
were no objections.
i
Mr. Fletcher addressed the Council on the matter of the Break. He stated that
there were many breaks. There was one on Park Street, Jefferson Avenue, Willow Street,
I
and a 20" and 30" line at Chignan Hill in Beverly.
Mr. Fletcher submitted charts and photographs to the Council, and stated that at
the time, they were doing exploritory work on the supply lines. Up until 7:00 A.M.
today, (October 28) , Mr. Fletcher was at a loss as to why the breaks occured. Between f
9:00 A.M. and 9:30 P.M. , the consultants under Mr. Fletcher's assistant, Mr. William
Haight, were closing the supply valve at Folly Hill, and the pressure then went up.
Mr. Fletcher stated around 10:00 A.M. , the Park Street break took place, and the
Jefferson Avenue break took place when the water hamper created the pressure to go up. 1
The whole system went wild, and it also ran backwards for a time. On the 20" line, the
press-are represents 6 tons when the pressure is up. The Gallows Hill tank should have
I, I
flooded, but it did not.
Mr. Fletcher stated the break in Beverly is on Sohier Road, directly across the � .
street from Beverly High School. The line on Park Street is repaired, but the street
isn't. Willow Avenue is also repaired. Jefferson Avenue is repaired, but the break
20" line will be out until possibly Friday morning,
destroyed the drainage line. The
and the work should be completed scmetuTe next week-
Councillor Healey asked Mr. Fletcher, after the first break at Park Street, did „
we open the valve at Folly Hill. Mr. Fletcher replied No. We had divers in the reser-
voir. Councillor Healey asked if having the valve closed put strain on the system.
i
ill
Mr. Fletcher replied yes, but we expected the Gallows Hill tank to let go and overflow.
It didn't. I can't say for sure if Park Street was caused by Folly Hill
I �
I
' I
T
285 OCTOEM 28, 1981
Mr. Haight explained that if the Gallows Hill tank had overflowed, the pressure
would have been released, and the Jefferson Avenue break would not have hap
pened.
Councillor Healey asked if the 20" line on Sohier load had been replaced. Mr.
Fletcher stated that it broke on both sides, so it won't be open until Tuesday or Wed-
nesday of next week. Because of this, we are currently being run by gravity. There is
a hole on Sohier Road as large as this Council Chamber.
Councillor Grace asked if the blastingthat was taking place on Sohier Road for f
I '
the housing project could have caused it. Mr. Fletcher felt that since the break was
i
so far away from that site, that he would have to rule that out. Councillor Grace
I �I asked it it were possible for vandals to tamper with the Gallows Hill tank. Mr. Flet-
cher stated that the ladder to the tank had been removed. Councillor Grace wondered if
ii any long term plans were being made for water distribution in the city. Mr. Fletcher
I stated that 10 days ago, the city filed for a $2 million grant. Somehow, there has to
1 be a Master Plan for water distribution, as these occurances cannot continue.
l� S
Councillor Fleming asked Mr. Fletcher to document for the council what the con-
##, sultants were doing at the time, and what happened at Gallows Hill, whether it was
III vandals or a malfunction in the valve. He also wanted to publically commend Mr. Flet-
cher and Mr. Haight for their response to this problem.
Mr. Fletcher advised Councillor Fleming that we do have documentation, and it wil
be forthcoming.
II I
councillor O'Keefe questioned the two valves at the Gallows Hill tank.
l '
Mr. Fletcher said that one was an altitude valve and the other a check valve. He state
that in 1864, our water system was probably the most engineered in the area. But, afte
the Salem fire in 1914, everything was thrown in the ground. Councillor O'Keefe asked
I if he intended to do any analysis. Mr. Fletcher responded yes, as we want to find out
if the valve failed, and why the system 'ran backwards.
I !i
� I Councillor Giardi asked Mr. Fletcher if he could give the Council an estimate of
I 'Mi I; the cost. Mr. Fletcher responded approximately $30,000.00 to $60,000.00, but actually,
it could go higher. Councillor Giardi asked if there were any provisions for next year
budget to update the older water lines. Mr. Fletcher responded that his department was
doing as much of the work as possible.
Councillor Grace moved the declare the above matter an emergency under Massach-
usetts General Laws Chapter 39, Section 23A. It was so voted by a roll call vote of
( II 10 yeas, 0 nays, 1 absent. Councillors Fleming, Giardi, Grace, Healey, LeBlanc, Lovely
f '
Nestor, Nutting, O'Keefe, and Centorino were recorded as voting in the affirmative.
Councillor Nowak was absent.

off-street parking capacities sufficient to accommodate the number of vehicle
owned by the inhabitants of these residences; and

facilities or areas attracting large volumes of vehicular traffic, as to
induce large number of motorists to seek to park their vehicles on such
streets; and

i
on these streets find themselves unable to park anywhere near their homes G
for several hours each day, driveways are being blocked and the narrow streetcI �
4 are clogged with vehicles seeking places to park for many hours each day; and it
WHEREAS, The said clogging of these narrow streets could have disastrous consequences
4
in the event that police, fire, or ambulance emergency vehicles had to quick-
ly reach a position near the middle of such blocks; and
WHEREAS, Valuable time could be lost in attempting to gain access to non-residents'
!�
i

123 Councillor Grace introduced the following Order.
Council opposition to
Governor's Workfare ORDERED: That the Salem City Council go on record as opposed to His Honor Governor
program
I Edward J. Kings present mandatory Workfare Program. While said program could indeed be
supported in concept, by having those receiving Welfare benefits be self sustaining by
working in return for monies alloted them, the poorly planned program provides for
cities and towns in the Commonwealth to employ unskilled people while laying off skille
t
workers from the Municipal roles.
Further, in that the program provides no insurance for individuals along with
dead ended jobs, that the City of Salem refuse any participation in said program. As
an alternative, the State should funnel workers through its Bureau of Unemployment,
and begin worthy training programs without top-heavy administrative costs, or allocate
extra monies to local vocational schools to train the unemployed for a job which will
not be dead-ended.
Copies of this be forwarded to Representative J. Michael Ruane, Senator John King,
p,
and Governor Edward King.
Councillor Nutting moved that the matter be referred to the Committee on Personnel
' and Salaries.
Councillor Grace amended that it be reported out at the next meeting. It was so

Ladies and Gentlemen of the Council:
I return to you herewith DISAPPROVED, Order #115 "Screening Committee for position
of City Treasurer/Data Processing Coordinator, or successor positions".
Ihuder our existing Charter, it is the duty of the Mayor to recommend for City
Council approval the positions of City Treasurer and/or Data Processing Coordinator.
The process of selecting the individuals to be recomrended is clearly an administrative
function. The attempt of the City Council for this Order to dictate to this office the
procedure for selecting my recommendation is clearly in excess of the authority granted
to the City Council by the people of the City in adopting our Plan B. Charter. There-
fore, I have no choice but to VETO this Order.
Prior to the City Council meeting on February 11, 1982, I had communicated to
Council President Mr. O'Keefe an invitation to designate a City Councillor to participa
in the initial screening process of the written application. I believe that the par- 1
ticipation of a City Councillor in this matter will enable the entire Council to be
aware of the range of qualified candidates seeking the present position of City Treasurer.
I would appreciate the appointment of a representative of the City Council since
the applications have been received, and I wish to proceed promptly with the initial
review of the candidates.
Very truly yours, { 1

EMERGENCY MEETING
An Emergency Meeting of the City Council was held in the Council Chamber on
Friday, April 2, 1982 at 3:45 P.M. for the purpose of confirming the declaration of
emergency that exists relative to the collapse of Bridge Street at the intersection of
Bridge and Flint Street near the canal. This Emergency affects the health, safety, and
welfare of the citizens of the City of Salem. (M.G.L. Ch. 39, Sec. 23A and Ch. 40,
Sec. 4B) �1 �)
ICouncil President Brian T. O'Keefe presided.
The following Councillors were in attendance: Centorino, Fleming, Giardi, Martin-
eau, Nutting, Rochna, and O'Keefe. Councillors Grace, Lovely, Nestor, and Nowak were
absent.
Councillor Giardi moved to suspend the rules to allow Mr. Anthony V. Fletcher,
City Engineer and Director of Public Services, and Mr. William Haight, Assistant Dir-
ector of Public Services to address the Council. There were no objections.
Mr. Fletcher advised the Council that on Wednesday, March 31, a track dropped
into a hole at the intersection of Bridge and Flint Street. The drainage pipe leading
to the river has collapsed and part of the wall within the canal has given way. When
high tide comes in, it washes the dirt away under the street. He stated the longer we
wait, the nore of the street we lose.. He will need a crane to lift the granite blocks
from the canal as each block weighs approximately 8 tons. The area is now blockaded.
Councillor Centorino asked what caused it originally. Mr. Fletcher advised him
h- that the wall was builds in 1848, and he doesn't know if it was ever concreted. When
high tide canes in, the water goes right through the granite blocks, and washes away
part of the street. We'll have a continuing problem. Councillor Centorino asked if th
pipe was inoperable. Mr. Fletcher stated that it is inoperable, and the wall will have
to be rebuilt, as there is about 8 feet of stone currently laying in the mud at the
bottom of the canal.
Councillor Nutting asked Mr. William Haight, Assistant Director of Public Services,
how many feet of pipe were affected. Mr. Haight responded about 25 feet, the whole
stretch of pipe going to the river. Councillor Nutting asked if they had any idea how
much it would cost. Mr. Fletcher replied over $2,000.00, between $5,000.00 and
$10,000.00. This work will have to be done on an hourly basis, as they'll have to work
between tides. d)
Councillor Fleming asked if this was a busy intersection. Mr. Fletcher responded
that it is one of the busiest in the city, and he would not be held responsible for
leaving this hole open all weekend, because of the danger.
Councillor Rochna asked what happened on Wednesday. Mr. Haight stated that the
Police called him on Wednesday because there was a massive traffic jam of Bridge Street
and when he got there, they found a truck in the hole in the side of the street.

APRIL 2, 1982
Councillor Rochna asked who would be doing the work. Mr. Haight informed her that
Mackey would be doing this job, since he was the only local contractor who had a crane.
Councillor Rochna asked if Mackey had provided them with an estimate. Mr. Fletcher said
no, he had no idea of the cost, and they won't know until they start digging.
Mr. Fletcher stated that all he was looking for right now was authorization to
bypass the public bidding process under this emergency.
Councillor Centorino asked if we could use "Sewer Use" funds for this purpose. Mr.
Fletcher stated that since this pipe was a drain, it did not fall under sewer use, and
also, there is no more money in the fund. The Castle Hill Project used the last of
the funds.
Councillor Fleming asked if the cost would be kept to a minimum. Mr. Fletcher
stated that he would be there personally, or Mr. Haight would be there personally.
Councillor Rochna moved to declare the matter an emergency under Massachusetts
General Laws Chapter 39, Section 23A. It was so voted by a roll call vote of 7 yeas,
0 nays, 4 absent. Councillors Centorino, Fleming, Giardi,. Martineau, Nutting, Rochna,
and O'Keefe were recorded as voting in the affirmative. Councillors Grace, Lovely,
Nestor, and Nowak were absent.
Councillor Centorino amended that the Council authorize the spending of up to
$8,000.00. Councillor Rochna moved the question. It was so voted. The amendment was
so voted by a roll call vote of 4 yeas, 3 nays, 4 absent. Councillors Centorino, Giar
Nutting, and O'Keefe were recorded as voting in the affirmative. Councillors Fleming,

Trans. Data Process.
It was voted to accept the report. Expense
The Committee on Finance to whom was referred a transfer of $8,000.00 from
"Data Processing Salaries" to "Data Processing Expense" Account has considered said
matter and would recommend it be reported to the full Council without a recommendation.
Councillor Nestor requested and received unanimous consent to allow Mayor Jean
A. Levesque and the invited department heads to address the Council on this matter.
i
Mayor Levesque explained the need for the $8,000.00 transfer. After sitting
i
down with his department heads, the Auditor, Assessor, and Fiscal Services Director,
the Mayor felt that he had to start documentation of the work that is done in the Data
I
Processing Department, and to evaluate the current and 'future needs of the department.
The $8,000.00 will be matched with money from the Shaughnessy Hospital, approximately
$20,000.00, to bring someone in to run the department, either on a short or long term.
This money must be passed this evening so we can get a person to start working in the
department immediately.
Councillor Lovely asked Mayor Levesque who the person was, and how much would
be spent. Mayor Levesque responded that it will be more than $8,000.00, but the Shau-
ghnes
sy Hospital would also be contributing money, and they are currently looking at
�, IlIPIi
proposals. Mayor Levesque advised the Council that City Auditor Richard Foley could
better explain the proposals.
r
Mr. Foley stated that currently, they were looking at 3 proposals, but they
were no way near a contract.
Councillor Lovely stated that until he is certain what this money is to be spent
E;
on, he could not support it.
Councillor Fleming asked Mayor Levesque if the Data Processing Director and e t:
the Assistant Director were currently filled, would there be a need for an evaluation.
The Mayor stated that the department is currently staffed by four persons, and they k
are trying to bring the department back to full force. He wanted a professional to tell4
I•,

I ! t

4 him what he needs for this department before he hires any new personnel. Councillor
( Fleming asked if there were any complaints from other departments regarding the Data
I Processing Department, other than the Assessors. Mayor Levesque responded that he has
had no complaints, but he is waiting for the parking fine program and the Shaughnessy
I"
! I � Hospital to be tied into the computer.
Councillor Centorino asked if it would be agreeable to him if the Council were
i t!
Ito establish an Ad-Hoc board to work with the Mayor and his department heads on the
E V ; I
+It �I proposals. The Mayor stated that he had no problem with the Ad Hoc board, but he did
have a problem with the time element involved to set up the board. It would take too
! I ! i long, and this problem is urgent.
Councillor Giardi asked the Mayor if he was looking for a manager, or to hire
` I
! j a consultant. Mayor Levesque stated that he wants a professional to tell him what he
needs, and he wants someone to start docienting the progrdocumentingairs
.
II
Councillor Rochna asked who the girls in the Data Processing department were
1 '
j taking their orders from. If the girls have a problem, who do they contact. Mayor
j Levesque responded that they would contact someone from Sperry Univac.
Mary Pelletier, of the Data Processing Department, stated that if they had a
problem, they would figure it out themselves using their manual.
Joanne Jiadosz, of the Data Processing Department, stated that she was annoyed
at the misleading letter of Assessor Balboni. She stated that the Data Processing Dep-
artn,ent is very well managed, and stated thatAssessor Balboni never asked the Data
Processing Personnel to be involved with revaluation problems.
I
Councillor Nowak asked Mr. Fabiszewski, former Data Processing Director, if the
computer was obsolete, and if there was someone out there who could do the job. Mr.
Fabiszewski replied that the equipment was good for another 10 years, but it may have
I i
to be updated, and that any retiree or deceased person would run it if you could find
one.
Mr. Balboni stated that there is a sense of urgency. The Assessors are a month
4 behind in revaluation, and have been unable to do what has to be cone because of data
problem.
Councillor Nestor asked what is the minimum amount of time for any of the
itcompanies to cone in and work.
Mr. Foley responded that most have said fairly immediate. At the time they
submitted their proposals, they could be in working within a week.
Councillor Nowak assumed the chair for Council President O'Keefe. Councillor
O'Keefe stated that before he votes for the money, he wants to see a name, proposal,
I
contract, and specific dollar request. Councillor O'Keefe resumed the chair.

„f VEW Data Processing
'i Advisory Bd. Ord. rules.
Ladies and Gentlemen of the Council:
I am returning herewith, VETOED, Council Order #687A, entitled "Ordinance Esta-
blishing a Data Processing Advisory Board". I am vetoing this proposed Ordinance for
i
the following two reasons:
1. The language in the new Ordinance providing that "The Board shall serve in
a management capacity for all long-range planning and capital acquisition functions of
L I
` the department " is an infringement of the executive powers and duties granted to this
office by the Salem City Charter. Because the Ordinance intends to establish an
"Advisory Board", the language may have been inadvertently included. In its present
Iil
foam however it must be unacceptable to this office; and
2. The establishment at this time of the final foam of the Advisory Board would
be premature since a final report from the consultant is to be filed at the end of
June.
r
I respectfully request that the City Council, in light of these concerns, sustain
my Veto. This matter can be taken up anew in July and I assure you the full cooperatio
I
of my office in arriving at a truly Advisory Board which will best serve the City's
' I
Data Processing needs.

Section 1. Declaration
A serious public emergency exists due to the shortage of rental housing for
families of low and noderate income in Salem. This rental housing shortage is the
result of a substantial elderly population, many whom are on fixed incomes; a substantial
student population due to the location of Salem State College,within the city limits
and the lack of adequate on-campus dormitory facilities; and, an urban renewal program
which during the 1960's reduced the number of rental dwelling units in the downtown by
demolition. This rental housing shortage is evidenced by the usually low vacancy rate
among rental dwelling units of less than 2% according to the latest United States Bureau
f
of statistics compiled by the census. This housing emergency is unlikely to be alle-
viated in the immediate future by any new construction of rental housing for low and
moderate income families. This housing emergency is aggravated and exacerbated by
z the submission of existing rental housing units to Massachusetts General Laws Chapter
183A, establishing Condominiums. This rental housing shortage is detrimental to the
public health, safety and general welfare of the Citizens of Salem, particularly
individuals of and families of low and moderate income and compelled the City Council
and Mayor of the City of Salem to enact a Condominium Control Amendment to its Zoning
ordinance on March 24, 1981, to preserve the available stock of rental housing, and
protect tenants who reside therein, from the consequences of further submissions of
rental housing to condominiums.
Section 2. Enabling Authority to City of Salem
Notwithstanding any other general or special law, the City of Salem may adopt
{ an Ordinance, whether as an amendment to its zoning ordinance under Massachusetts
General Laws Chapter 40A or independently of its zoning authority, for restricting and
controlling the conversion of rental housing to a condominium, cooperative or any
imilar entity which would remove the property from residential rental use and for rest-
icting and controlling evictions related to such conversion. Any person who violates
any ordinance hereunder shall be punished by a fine of three thousand dollars, such
fines to be imposed separately for each rental unit illegally converted or each tenant
illegally evicted. The Superior Court shall have jurisdiction to enjoin violates of
any such ordinance.
Section 3. Ratification of Existing Ordinance
The Ordinance adopted by the City of Salem on March 24, 1981 entitled, "An Ordin-
ance relating to the conversion of rental housing to condominiums" which regulates the
conversion of dwelling units from rental use to condominiums, which was adopted prior
to the effective date of this Act is hereby ratified and confirmed from the date of
its adoption as if it had been adopted under authority of this Act.

cipal Services to be reported out at the next regular meeting. It was so voted.
Ladies and Centlemen of the Council:
I return to you herewith Council Order #675 entitled "Ordinance Amending Member-
ship of the Board of Cemetery Commissioners" VETOED.
FIRST: The past few years have seen a substantial reorganization of the operation
of the Cemetery Department. Substantial progress has been made in the area of reducing
personnel and maximizing the investment proceeds of the perpetual care find. Let me _
assure the City Council that the present appearance of our cemeteries, and Greenlawn
Cemetery in particular, is not satisfactory to this Administration. I believe that the
vacancy which has existed throughout the summer in the position of general foreman, and
the inadequacy of maintenance equipment which is now being replaced account for this
unsatisfactory condition.
lj o
Recently, the City Council approve3the position of Cemetery Manager and Mr. Rennar
was appointed to this post in September. Mr. Rennard is a certified arborist which I
believe meets one of the Council's, and my own greatest concerns - the professional
preservation and development of our cemetery's natural resources. I believe that the
Professional skills required to guarantee and maximize the floral and arbor beauty of
our cemeteries is best represented on the day to day staff level. I comrend the pre-
i
I'
q
is
595
r SEPTEMBER 23,,1982
sent comtissioners for the foresight they have displayed in taking this direction.
In the last month alone, several improvement projects have been undertaken at
it
Greenlawn Cemetery which, while not visually dramatic, are essential eletrents in the
omgrehensive care of our cemetery:
1. The spoiled area behind the office (which incidentally has existed for many
years) has been cleared, graded and seeded;
2. The Dixon Chapel has been painted, cleaned, has a new heating system installed,
and has been expanded to include a new garden;
3. The former greenhouse has been stripped and a new floor will be laid to prevent
I �
water from leaking into the garage maintenance storage area;
�Q I
4. The Cemetery Office itself has been cleaned, painted, and restored, and new
I�
heating also installed.
E
With Mr. Rennard's appointment and the advertizing for bids to replace the worn out
{11 equipment, present deficiencies will be eliminated, a schedule of effective maintenance
{; and preservation will be developed, and our cemeteries will be restored to their
i.
P former beauty, but at substantial savings to the City. I invite the City Council to
join me for a tour of Greenlawn Cemetery on Saturday, October 2, 1982 at 10:00 a.m. to
�ireview its condition.
SECOND We have City Cemeteries located on Charter Street in Ward 1, Broad street
in Ward 3, Essex Street in Ward 4, and Greenlawn in Ward 6. I cannot support singling
out a particular position on a City Board to be exclusively "owned" by a single ward.
Our cemeteries are city-wide assets and I believe that the present Commissioners are
1 our cemeteries and therefor, I feel it
preservation of al o eme
deeply concerned with the prese ,
unnecessary to establish this particular criteria which required this administration
` I ,h
'. to limit Board positions to a particular ward.
Additionally, the guarantee of a seat to a member of the clergy may violate the
disestablishment mandate of our constitution and render at least that portion of the
Ordinance illegal.
I. and the present Commissioners welcome the constructive criticism and suggestions
of all interested persons so that our cemeteries will continue to provide the kind of
beau and di which we have come to expect. S MAYOR

Veto Citizens Adv. Bd.
rules of the City Charter. Winter Island Comm.
Ladies and Gentlemen of the Council:
I hereby return to you City Council Order #994 "Citizens Advisory Board to Wintei
Island Commission" VETOED.
Few Boards in the City of Salem have had to deal with such difficult issues as
the Winter Island Commission has dealt with since its creation. Virtually all of the
i� iuprovempnts which have taken place on the Island to date are attributable to the
imaginative and sustained efforts of this group of citizen volunteers.
The Winter Island Commission itself is primarily an advisory body to this office
and to the Council. I consider this order creating an advisory bOm[mittee to the advi-
sory committee to be extremely ill-advised on the one hand and could quite likely be
viewed by the present members of the Winter Island Commission as a vote of no confid-
ence on the other hand.
i
V`j 11 ip

DECEMBER 6, 1982
r,
The Winter Island Commission as a public body is required to comply with the open
meeting law with regard to all of its deliberations. The Winter Island Commission has
full£illed the letter of the spirit of that law and has gone beyond that law in its
ffort to solicit citizen and neighborhood input in those matters within its jurisdic-
Rion.
I personnally view the proposed creation of this advisory board as an attempt to
arrow rather than broaden citizen input to the Winter Island Commission. At the pres-
t time, any interested and concerned citizen may "attend meetings of the Commission
in a non-voting capacity as well as to meet separately with the two Ward 1 representa-
tives on the Commission to discuss issues related to Winter Island" .
I feel very strongly that the Winter Island Commission deserves the outstanding
endorsement for its actions by the City Council and this office. I urge the Council
to sustain this Veto.

(1001)1062 The following Veto was received from the Mayor. No action for 7 days under the

St. & install on
Dearborn Lane Ladies and Gentlemen of the Council:
I hereby return to you Council Order #1001 entitled "Electrician replace street
fight at 17 Orchard St. and place new light on Dearborn Lane" VETOED.
The reason for this veto is that the City Electrician has on several occasions
Mquested input from the City Council relative to priorities in the area of street
fighting. As a result of this earlier input, final decisions were made with regard
to which street lights ought to be lighted, given the confines of the existing budget
imitations. If those Councillors who submitted this request are prepared to rewmn-
which street lights may be extinguished in order that these street lights may he
turned on, I would be happy to ask the City Electrician to consider such a request.

An EMERGENCY MEETING of the City Council was held in the Council Chamber on Thurs-
day, December 9, 1982 at 4:00 P.M. for the purpose of confirming the declaration of

l' { i Councillor Giardi requested and received unanimous consent to suspend the rules to
allow Mr. Anthony V. Fletcher, City Engineer and Director of Public Services to address
' f
the Council.
Mr. Fletcher stated that at 2:30 or 3:00 P.M. yesterday, December 8, the State
�{ r
Inspection Diver was inspecting the bridge, and found the syphon on the Beverly side of
p the swing bridge was pumping water. He found that the break was just below the mud line.
In 1972, a boat hit the syphon. Three years ago, the Salem side let go, and now the
to
Beverly side. The connection underwater is split in half. It is basically the same
situation as a few years ago.
t I checked out pipe priced today, and stainless steel sleeves were $2,000.00 three

Mr. Fletcher further informed the Council of New England Divers would be doing the
work.

JOINT PUBLIC HEARING - PLANNING HOARD - AMUSEMENT DISTRICT
A Joint Public Hearing of the City Council and the Planning Board was held in
the Council Chamber on Thursday, December 16, 1982 at 7:39 P.M. for the purpose of
discussing the proposed Ordinance amending the Zoning Ordinance, establishing an
Amusement District. Notice of this hearing was posted on December 10, 1982 at 9:40
( A.M. and advertised in the Salem Evening News on December 2, and December 9, 1982.
C1� Absent were Councillors Grace, Lovely, and Martineau.
�i
Council President Brian T. O'Keefe presided.
Members of the Planning Board present are Mr. Walter Power, III, Chairman, Mr.
I
Kenneth May, David Coodof, Donald Hunt, Abby L. Burns, Edward M. Stevenson, and Plannin
u
Board Aide Susan Madison. '.
Also present was Mr. Richard Stafford, City Solicitor, Attorney Roger K. Soder-
berg, and Mr. Harvey Lazarus.
Council President Brian T. O'Keefe called the hearing to order at 7:39 P.M. and
introduced the councillors present. He stressed the desire of the City Council and
the Planning Board to receive citizen input on the matter. Councillor O'Keefe then
introduced WalterPower, who in turn, introduced the members of the Planning Board
t
a
present.
Councillor O'Keefe introduced City Solicitor Richard Stafford for a presentation
i
regarding the proposed Zoning Ordinance. Mr. Stafford stated that the Legal Department
h
I
had met with the City Council Committee on Ordinances and Legal Affairs to discuss the
draft of an approach to regulating video games within the City. At the request of the
Council, the Licensing Board has placed a moratorium on the licensing of games in the
r
city. This was done with the understanding that the Council would proceed with what-
ever avenue they wish to pursue in a reasonable period of time. Mr. Stafford has
prepared an ordinance to create an amusement district. This would be a new district
within the City of Salem.
Councillor O'Keefe then asked the City Councillors present for questions or
t
comments.
i
For clarification, Councillor Fleming highlighted some points of Mr. Stafford's
proposal. If this ordinance were adopted, then future licensing of video games out- {,
side of a proposed amusement district could only be allowed by the Board of Appeal.
Mr. Stafford replied in the affirmative. In a B-2 district, further licensing of
video games would be done by a special permit issued by the Board of Appeal. Any other
district would require a variance.
Councillor Nutting asked how this ordinance would affect residential areas which t
'a border on B-2 district; i.e. Loring Hills area which now borders on a B-2. He wishes
to know how the abutters would be protected. Mr. Stafford explained that the Board of !'
Appeal could find that proposed video games would not be in harmony with the existing
DEC EMBER 16, 1982
I ' ordinance, so if the neighborhood was opposed and articulated their reasons, the Board
Jof Appeal would have the right not to issue the permit. Councillor Nutting noted that
the ordinance provided for adequate parking, as a requirement for the licensing of an
I.i am , emennt. What would constitute adequate parking. Mr. Stafford replied that the
language relating to parking was not specifically related to video games, but was
l I
geared toward enployee parking, etc. He feels it may be worthwhile to amend the
ordinance to respond specifically to the video game question.
Councillor Centorino asked if there was any precedence for this type of ordinance
in any other community. Mr. Stafford replied that there is only one other at the
nrnrent, in Boston, and it has not yet been acted upon. However, he feels that the
i
ordinance proposed this evening is defensible.
Councillor Fmchna asked if it was possible for the City of Salem to legally outlaw
these games. Mr. Stafford replied that the Town of Marshfield has outlawed them. A
U.S. District Court injunction has been denied and an appeal has been denied. However,
r +i this does not mean that the ordinance is valid. There will be a new trial in January,
and until this is resolved, no one knows.
II 'I,r
p. Councillor Giardi commented that, in his opinion, the overall ordinance is a good
j . one. He feels video games should not be banned, but regulated.
Councillor O'Keefe then turned the meeting over to Planning Board Chairman Walter
I
fi Power for the comments of the Planning Board. Walter Power stated that the Planning
Board had net and discussed this proposal at length.
The Planning Board asked that a variety of activities should be tested against the
r
proposed ordinance before final passage in order to insure that some uses not be inad-
vertently prohibited or regulated.
An area of concern regarded the language establishing the exemption of housing
under the jurisdiction of the Salem Housing Authority from the ordinance. It is the
interest of the Planning Board to protect residents in public as well as private
housing.
The Planning Board also has some concern as to the effects of increasing the work
load of the Board of Appeal. The Board questioned whether this ordinance could be
administered by the Licensing Board. Walter Power also expressed come concern as to
what effect this ordinance would have on the rezoning process. He explained that
Planning had been , considering recommending tighter boundaries for B-2 districts. In OF
addition, the City, in recent years, has encouraged a mix of commercial and residential
i
uses. Would this ordinance prohibit uses in residential areas?
Mr. Stafford then responded to the concerns of the Planning Board. With regard to
the definition of an amusement, Mr. Stafford felt the definition should be altered to
read "camiercial amusement". This would serve to clarify the intent of the ordinance.

DECEMBER 16,_1982
F
As far as concerns regarding special amusements such as the circus were concerned, this
could be treated by amending the ordinance to exclude those activities licensed by the
City Council.
Regarding the language about public housing, Mr. Stafford stated that the language
was commn throughout the ordinance and, rather then distinguishing between public and
\r' private housing, it was inserted as a courtesy to any activity undertaken by the Salem
Housing Authority. Therefore, if public housing was to be built in a proposed amuse-
ment district, the City would defer. Councillor O'Keefe asked how this affected the
UDAG area? Mr. Stafford replied that this language speaks specifically to the Salem
Housing Authority.
Regarding the burden on the Board of Appeal, Mr. Stafford stated that this issue
had not been taken into consideration, however, no formal request was sent from the
Board of Appeal to remove them from handling this area. He felt it was safe to assume
that they will be willing to handle it.
Council President O'Keefe then opened the meeting to the public for their comrents
or questions.
Mr. Roger Solderberg, an attorney representing an_owner in a B-4 district express
soire concern as to the extremely restrictive nature of the ordinance. While he under-
stands individual requests would be reviewed, permits will be allowed only in a B-2.
He would suggest that the Council extend special permit use to other business districts
It would be acceptable to those in B-4 and, generally speaking, would be consistent
with zoning law. He stated he was speaking specifically of the Derby Street area which
is generally a business district. He feels this area would be an acceptable location
for amusement activity as described by this evening's hearing.
Councillor Fleming stated that as a proponent of the ordinance, he is pleased with
the draft; however, he feels there is still room for discussion as to the concerns
raised by Mr. Soderberg. He would support an expansion of special permits to other
business districts.
Councillor Centorino was concerned by several things. One is that he feels the
City may be over-reacting to the control of video gaires. In addition, he questioned
an ordinance that would have two separate city boards dealing with video games. Per-
haps control could be accomplished through different regulations of the Licensing
Board.
Mr. Stafford felt that the draft was made with the fact in mind that the Licensing
Board was not regulating and controlling the games to the degree that the Committee
seemed to feel was necessary.
Councillor Centorino asked if the Licensing Board could perform this regulartory
function under a different set of regulations rather than the Board of Appeal.
I
667
DECEMBER 16, 1982
Mr. Stafford replied that the City Council does not have the authority to izrpose
regulations on the Licensing Board. In any case, if the Licensing Board were the
regulating authority, it could not be a zoning ordinance. For the Licensing Board to
establish further guidelines, a municipal ordinance would have to be created. Mr.
1 �I
Stafford felt there was a problem here of the Licensing Board being in favor of this.
N �11
Councillor Centorino raised the possibility of the Board of Appeal feeling the
sane way. He suggested the City Council have some discussion with both Boards regar-
ding this matter.
Mr. Stafford noted this certainly would be possible, as the Council has ninety
days from the time they receive a report from the Planning Board before acting on
I ' the Ordinance.
Councillor Nutting wondered if we would be opening up a Pandora's Box by not
putting our trust in the Licensing Board. He feels also that it would be difficult
j
for the Licensing Board to turn other applications down in light of the fact they have
issued a permit for the downtown arcade.
Mr. Stafford replied that the Licensing Board feels they are now in a compromising
it
�I position having granted one permit and feeling they must grant more. Mr. Stafford feel
�I this is not necessarily true. They must review each application and judge each in its
I, individual merits.
Councillor O'Keefe felt that the Licensing Board had considered regulating the
number, but it would be difficult to enforce. The state does regulate to some degree
I ,
by popudatim.
Mr. Stafford added that there tends to be two schools of thought on this matter.
i
Some feel that there is an over reaction on the whole issue of video games and they
should be allowed wherever the market will bear. Others feel they are the worst in-
1i ', !
trusien in the world. There is no particular sentiment as to limiting by numbers.
41 There being no further comments for any person present, Councillor O'Keefe
thanked all those who participated.
