JOINT PUBLIC HEARING - BUSINESS PARK DISTRICT —
A Joint Public hearing of the City Council and the planning Board was held in
the Council Chamber on Wednesday, February 20, 1985 at 8:30 P.M. for the purpose of
discussing a proposed zoning amendment relative to Business Park Development zones and
Site Plan Review. Notice of this hearing was 'Posted on February 15, 1985 at 10:56 A.M.
and advertised in the Salem Evening News on February 5 and 12, 1985.
Councillors Martineau, Nowak, Usovicz, and Lovely were absent.
Council President John R. Nutting presided.
Council President Nutting introduced the members of the Planning Board that
were present. Walter Power, Robert Guethlen, Normand Houle, Edward Stevenson, Kenneth
May, John Ahern, Abby Burns, and Donald Hunt. Gerard Kavanaugh, City Planner, was also
present.
Council President Nutting then introduced Mr. Walter Power, who then gave a
brief overview of the proposals before the public this evening. He noted the purpose
of the Site Plan Review process is to strengthen the review process the Planning Board
exhibits over certain projects which may otherwise be developed with no Planning Board
or community input. The proposed Business Park Development zones are in harmony with
the recommendations set forth in the Master Plan - to provide space within the City
for business to grow, while maintaining a control over the development. Mr. Pacer noted
that these proposals would answer two needs: 1. to avoid rapid development and allow
for slow, long-range development of a parcel; and 2. to create jobs in the community
so people can live and work here.
Mr. Power then introduced City Planner Kavanaugh to discuss the Site Plan
Review proposal before the Council.
Mr. Kavanaugh noted that over the past six to eight months, there has been an
increasing concern expressed by Planning Board members and members of the City Council
regarding growth and development which has taken place recently in the City. As a
result, the Planning Board began to research ways to better monitor and control the
types of development which take place so that short term and long term impacts for
good input from all appropriate bodies could be solicited.
Therefore, the Planning Board is proposing an amendment to the Zoning Ordinance
which would require review of all non-residential development in excess of 10,000 squar
feet or in excess of six residential units. Presently, there are certain cases where
there is no public review process or neighborhood meetings. Mr. Kavanaugh suggested
that a Site Plan Review process through the Planning Board with public hearing require-
ments and thorough review by the Board and Planning Department would allow for a
thorough analysis of traffic, water, sewer, drainage, site design, landscaping, impact
48A
i
FEB UJW 20, 1985
on wetlands, etc. The requirements would be stringent and would allow the Planning Boand
to take a good long look at what is pronosed. Mr. Kavanaugh noted that the entire
Zoning Ordinance is currently being evaluated, but the Planning Board feels strongly
that this type of review is important to enact right away to avoid the possibility of
no review of proposed projects by the Planning Board.
Councillor Centorino stated he has no problems with the proposal. He feels
the proposal is long overdue.
Councillor Nutting asked if this legislation was styled after any other
cenmunity and Mr. Kavanaugh replied it was styled after legislation in a community
where he previously worked. It allows for cooperative efforts between the Planning
Board and the Planning Department. Councillor Nutting asked if Mr. Zieff's project on
Loring Hills Avenue would be affected and Mr. Kavanaugh replied in the affirmative and
added that this will allow the Planning Board to properly review the implications of
i
traffic, conservation, site design, water, sewer, drainage, and impact on the surround-
ing neighborhood.
Mr. Gary Moore of 13 Sylvan Street, wished to be recorded in favor of
the proposal. He stated he was speaking as a resident and member of the Eedevelop-
ment Authority and felt this was a positive way to deal with the "rush" of develoument
and was a positive step on the City's part as opposed to a building moratorium.
Attorney George Vallis asked what the difference between this nronosal and
a Planned Unit Development and Mr. Kavanaugh replied that many Projects do not fall
under the auspices of a Planned Unit Development. For example, an eight unit develop-
ment on Proctor Street and a sixty unit residential development on Derby Street both
would presently be subject to no review by the Planning Board.
Councillor George McCabe spoke in support of the proposal. He felt it was
essential for neighborhood input. He commended the Planning Board and City Planner
for their efforts.
Councillor Richard Swiniuch asked what would happen to existing proposals
and Mr. Kavanaugh replied they would become non-conforming uses.
Attorney George Vallis feels this proposal would water down the jurisdiction
of the Board of Appeal and give more power to the Planning Board. P1r. Kavanaugh
replied that this proposed legislation has nothing to do with variances granted by the
Board of Appeal. Further, there is specific criteria within which the Planning Board
deals with proposals.
FEBRUARY 20_,_ 1985
Walter Pacer stated the Planning Board will review the comments submitted this
evening and will return their recommendations to the Council as quickly as possible.
The Board feels this legislation is sorely needed.
Regarding the Business Park Development Zone proposal, Chairman Tialter Pacer
stated the legislation is similar to Site Plan Review within two specific areas of the
City--Commercial Street/Mason Street area and the Highland Avenue/Swampscott Road area.
Any development within these two areas will require the same type of public review pro-
cedure as set forth in Site Plan review. It was noted that the land areas to be inclu-
ded in this new zone are presently zoned Industrial for the most
part. Some Business
and Residential zones are also included.
Presently, if a developer meets the existing zoninq, there is no process for
y review or mechanism for neighborhood input. This
g p legislation would allay for a review
process leading to a Special Permit for Business Park Development and would allow for
more stringent review than presently exists in the Industrial zone and more limited use
than presently exist.
The Planning Board feels this legislation would enhance the employment and tax
bases and provide clean industry which would have minimal imipact on the surrounding
neighborhood.
City Planner Kavanaugh pointed out the parcels to be included in the Commercial/
Mason Street area. The area included approximately 38� acres and is currently zoned
Industrial. The Special Permit process would provide for public input and allow the
Planning Board to make certain that whatever development takes place is for the good
of the neighborhood and the City. Traffic, water, sewerage, drainage, and other
environmental issues will all be taken into consideration.

Regarding Highland Avenue/Swampscott Road, 178 acres are proposed to be included
.t
in the new zone. What is proposed in the same type of Business Park Development
District. Presently, the majority of the land to be included in the new zone is under-
developed. Mr. Kavanaugh added that there is a provision for a 75' buffer zone between
tie new develolnent and any surrounding neighborhoods, substantial screening and land-
scaping, 10% open space, and 55% of the pro_Derty to remain undeveloped.
Councillor Swiniuch asked why the proposed zone line is "zig-zagged?" Mr.
Kavanaugh replied that the Board tried to make certain that the present residential
areas were not included in the new zone.
Councillor Nutting asked why these two particular areas were considered over
other areas of the City; i.e. Canal Street and Mr. Kavanaugh noted that the evaluation

The Board would anticipate one entrace to the whole cOrmlex, therefore minimizing the

A Joint Public Hearing of the City Council and the Planning Board was held in the
Council Chamber on Thursday, April 25, 1985 at 6:45 P.M. for the purpose of discussing
proposed zoning amendments regarding the Central Business District, Central Business
District Map Change, and Flood Hazard District. Notice of this meeting was posted on
April 11, 1985 at 3:26 P.M. and advertised in the Salam Evening News on April 10 and
17, 1985.
u
Councillor Martineau was absent.
Council President John R. Nutting presided.
Planner Board members present were Chairman Walter Power, Kenneth May, Robert
Guethlen, Abby Burns, and Donald Hunt. Also present were City Planner Gerard Kavanaugh,
William Luster and Dale Yale of the Planning Department.
Mr. Power first addressed the issue of the Float Hazard Special Permit. He noted
the proposed amendment deals with a reduction in the flood hazard level for the evalua-
tion of structures in the flood plain. Mr. Power then introduced City Planner Kavanaugh
to expand on this proposal further.
Mr. Kavanaugh stated that the reason for this proposed amendment is a technical
one required by the Federal Emergency Management Agency. Presently, the City's regu-
latiozs state that any structure which is to be located below elevation 15.36, which
is the flood hazard level set by F04k several years ago, required a Flood Hazard Specie
Permit from the Planning Board. A recent FFMA study has re-calculated that level to
elevation 14.36 and FEMA has required that our Ordinance reflect this change. The
change will have little impact, but will make sane land parcels whichreviousl would
P Y
have required a Special Permit no longer subject to that requirement.
Council President Nutting asked if this change affected neighboring conminities
as well, and Mr. Kavanaugh replied in the affirmative. In response to a further ques-
tion from Councillor Nutting, Mr. Kavanaugh noted that the change is relatively minimal.
Councillor Centorino asked if the change was merely for policy reasons and Mr.
Kavanaugh replied in the affirmative.
Regarding the prorosed amendments to the B-5 zone, Chairman Walter Power noted
the Planning Board has been working on this proposal for some months and feels it is
particularly timely now in light of recent events in the downtown.
City Planner Kavanaugh noted that it has become apparent that there is a need in
the downtown for more activity and twenty-four hour presence. The Salam Redevelopment
Authority, the Planning Board, the Mayor's Downtown Task Force, the City Council and thE
Planning Department have all expressed their desires to find ways to bring more people
into the downtown area.
11'7
APRIL 25, 1985
Several ideas have been put forth, such as better lighting,,signage, etc. , which
e currently being implemented. Further, the idea has been put forth to bring more re-
sidential development into the downtown area by developing the under-utilized upper
stories of buildings in the downtown for housing. This would provide twenty-four hour
presence in the downtown, more activity for the merchants would be generated, and the �}
downtown area would be more secure. 11a
The drawback to the proposal is the limitation of parking. Therefore, the proposal.
t forth this evening would amend the Zoning Ordinance to enlarge the existing B-5 zone
and eliminate the present "mish-mash" of zones downtown, plus amending the present park-
ing requirements to allow only one parking space requirement per dwelling unit which could
be provided either on or off site within 1000 feet of the unit to be developed. This
could be provided at Riley Plaza or at the Parking Garage.
Mr. Kavanaugh outlined the properties that would be included in the B-5; the Essex
i
Institute, the Hawthorne Hotel, the South River area, Riley Plaza, the Peabody Block, an
the new train station area. in addition, one area across the North River on Franklin
Street was also included. Mr. Kavanaugh further noted that the existing provision for
kausement Devices will be eliminated in the B-5.
In sunTary, Mr. Kavanaugh stated that the proposal would: 1. Provide for one
parking space per dwelling unit on-or off-site, expand the existing B-5 district, and
3. eliminate the provision for Amusement Devices.
Councillor Frances Grace stated she was "excited" about the proposal. As a recent
resident of the downtown area, she feels this will be very beneficial to the downtown
area. She likened the results of the proposal to the North End in Boston and noted
residential uses downtown would provide for 'captive" shoppers.
Councillor George Nowak stated he is concerned with the addition of Derby Wharf
in the new zone. He noted the parking in that area is already very bad and relaxation
of parking requirements for development would exacerbate the problem. He cannot support
the proposal as it stands now.
Walter Power noted this re-zoning was geared to rehabilitation of existing under-
utilized buildings or floors in the downtown area. There was little available area for
this type of development in the Derby Wharf area. Mr. Power added the Planning Board
has Site Plan Review to further control any development.
City Planner Kavanaugh noted that when he and Councillor Nowak met with the
neighbors in that area, the concerns were more for twenty-four hour access to the
garage than with actual neighborhood parking concerns.

APRIL 25F. 1985
Councillor George McCabe expressed sane concern for expanding the district to
residential neighborhoods. He is uncomfortable with relaxing the parking restrictions
on Franklin Street, for example. City Planner Kavanaugh felt this issue could be
addressed.
Councillor Nutting asked what the sentiments of the downtown connunity were regar-
ding this proposal and Mr. Kavanaugh stated the merchants had all responded favorably
3
to the proposal, particularly the prospects of more security and a market for the
downtown stores.
Councillor Centorino stated he was supportive of the idea of the B-5 in the
downtown, but feels there should be some adjustments made for the Pickering Wharf area
and other neighborhoods. Mr. Kavanaugh agreed that- this could be addressed.
Councillor Grace asked if there were any plans underway for a second tier on Almy'
lot and Mr. Kavanaugh replied there were some preliminary designs underway, but nothing
definite.
Joan Gormalley, Director of the Chamber of Commerce, spoke in favor of the plan
on behalf of the Chamber. The merchants were very much supportive of the idea and
she added that the Chamber was hopeful of the same type of residential rehabilitation
as was done for the Father Matthews House.
Councillor Swiniuch suggested that the Derby Wharf area be eliminated. Mr.
Kavanaugh felt he could concur with this suggestion.
On the motion of Councillor Nowak, the public hearing adjourned at 7:30 P.M.

Veto of witch memorial
Charter. Proposal
Ladies & Gentlemen of the Council:
I return to you herewith Council Order #748 entitled "Proposal for Witch Monument
at Witches Memorial on Proctor Street" VETOED.
Before the City approves of the concept of a project of such historical significance,
I feel it is important that other ideas and proposals should be sought as to design and
location, and that citizen input should also be welcomed. I would also like to under-
stand the extent of any commitment or responsibility that would be incurred by the City.
It is my intention to select an Ad Hoc Committee, the composition of which will be
forwarded to you shortly, to study, plan, and make recommendations for a possible
Tricentennial Observance of the Witchcraft Hysteria. I£ the committee so recommends,
I feel a monument could be erected during such an observance as a more meaningful
tribute to the twenty citizens who were the victims of this brief but unfortunate
segment of our otherwise proud historical heritage.
I respectfully request that the Council sustain this VETO.
Very truly yours,
Anthony V. Salvo, Mayor

JOINT PUBLIC HEARING WITH PLANNING BOARD
A Joint Public Hearing of the City Council and the Planning Board was held in the
Council Chamber on Thursday, October 24, 1985 at 6:30 P.M. for the purpose of discussin
a proposed zoning amendment relative to the inclusion of water in the definition of
land area. Notice of this meeting was posted on September 23, 1985 at 12:09 P.M. and
advertised in the Salem Evening News on October 2 and 9, 1985.
Councillors Nowak, Centorino, Swiniuch, and Martineau were absent.
Council President John R. Nutting presided.
Planning Board members present were Walter Power, Abby Burns, Henri Theberge, and
Robert Guethlen. Also present was City Planner Gerard Kavanaugh, and Dale Yale of the
Planning Department.
Council President John Nutting called the hearing to order and read the notice of
the public hearing. Councillor Nutting then introduced the City Councillors present
and turned the meeting over to Planning Board Chairman Walter Power who introduced the
Planning Board members present. Mr. Power then requested City Planner Kavanaugh to
give a brief overview of the proposed zoning change.
Mr. Kavanaugh explained that when an individual is compiling the amount of land
area to be used in calculating density for a particular parcel, currently a body of
I
water which may exist on a parcel can be included in the total acreage of the parcel.
If the proposal being discussed this evening is passed, the individual may not use
water located on that land t:o compile the acreage of the parcel. What this does is
i
take a piece of land which has water on it and reduces the total square footage of �-
that parcel thereby reducing the density. Mr. Kavanaugh noted this proposal has no
geographical affiliation. The change will encompass any petition for any land which
has water on that land.
i The Planning Board will review the comments presenters this evening and make a report
to the City Council for them to act accordingly. �.
Councillor Nutting noted a letter in favor of the proposed change was sent by
Mr. and Mrs. E.S. Darna of 20 Elm Avenue.

Attorney George Atkins, 30 Lafayette Street, spoke in favor of the proposed change
Ile noted that presently the ordinance presents some confusion. Water cannot be built
upon, but can be used in calculating densities. Therefore, greater density is allowed
for certain parcels.
Councillor Nutting relinquished the chair to Councillor Lovely and spoke in favor
of the adoption of the proposal. He noted the Planning Board has "wrangled" with the
issue of water being considered as "land" for some time. He noted this change would
apply to Marcia Avenue, Legg's Hill, and also to areas which use mudflat in density

calculations. He added that variances could be sought if greater densities were deemed
to be the best use of the parcel. Further, marshland would not be eliminated in
calculating densities.
The following persons spoke in favor of the proposal:
Mr. Raymond Sweeney, 18 Chandler Road
Mr. Raymond Gauthier, 24 Chandler Road
Mr. John Raynes, 3 Peter Road
Mr. Donald Raymond, 26 Chandler Road
Ms. Jane Claffey, 1 Wilfred Terrace
Mrs. Donna Berube, Chandler Road
Attorney Atkins noted that this proposal was not anti-development, nor was it a
regional proposal. It is an issue of fairness as well as density control.
Councillor Frances Grace wished to be recorded in favor of the proposal. She is
further in favor of retaining some open land within the City.
Councillor George McCabe also wished to be recorded as in favor of the proposed
Ordinance change.
There being no further discussion, the hearing was declared closed at 7:15 P.M.

E[AEFGENCY MEETING _
An Fhter'gency Meeting of the City Council was held in the Council Chamber on Thurs-
day, March 13, 1986 at 7:00 P.M. for the purpose of confirming the declaration of
emergency to repair a 30" water valve on Salem Water 6brks Road in Beverly. This

Councillors Martineau and Harrington were absent.
Council President George P. McCabe presided.
Councillor O'Leary requested and received unanimous consent to allow Mr. Paul
Niman, Director of Public Services, to address the Council on this matter.
Mr. Niman stated that the valve cracked on Tuesday morning, and the only way to
repair the valve is to shut down the entire pumping station. The valve has been
ordered and is on the way. The City has hired John Granese to do the repair work, since
he is familiar with the job. We will shut down the system on Saturday morning, and the
i
city will have to be supplied with water from the reservoirs. If everything goes as
planned, the job should be completed by Saturday evening. The estimated cost will
probably be around $30,000.00, but under no circumstances, would the cost exceed
$50,000.00. All bills will be submitted to the City Council as soon as possible.
Councillors Grace and Nowak both stated that they would have preferred if Mr.
Niman had received bids from Mr. Linskey and Mr. Mackey.
Mr. Niman reiterated that Mr. Granese was the most experienced with this type of
job, and due to the severity of the problem, he was not about to take any chances with
a less experienced contractor.

SPECIAL METING ---
A Special Meeting of the City Council was held in the Council Chamber at the req-
uest of the Mayor, on Wednesday, July 9, 1986 at 7:30 P.M. for the purpose of receiving
a briefing from the Mayor and the Trustees of the Shaughnessy Hospital relative to the
outside managenent proposals for the Shaughnessy Hospital. Notice of this meeting was
4
posted on July 7, 1986 at 9:49 A.M.
Councillor Martineau was absent.
Council President George P. McCabe presided.
Mayor Salvo thanked the City Council for authorizing the meeting, and stated that
he lopes the Councillors' questions and concerns could be addressed in order that the
proposal for outside management of the Shaughnessy Hospital by Salem Hospital can be
executed.
Council President McCabe called upon a representative of the Shaughnessy Hospital
to address the Council and explain the process whereby Salam Hospital was chosen to
manage the Shaughnessy Hospital for a period of one year.
Dr. James Lomastro, Executive Director of the Shaughnessy Hospital, arose and
gave a synopsis of how the hospital came to the decision to consider outside manage-
ment of the hospital for a period of one year only. In March and April of 1986, the
Trustees voted to put out requests for proposals, and Salem Hospital and Hospital
Corporation of America expressed an interest and submitted proposals, on June 17, the
Executive Committee of the Trustees recommended to the full Board that the contract be
awarded to Salem Hospital. Dr. Icmmastro then explained in detail why Salem Hospital
was chosen over Hospital Corporation of America to manage the hospital. He cited the
numerous services which will be provided by the Hospital, such as security, laundry
service, food service, etc. , all of which were part of the total package.
Councillor Swiniuch welcomed everyone present, and thenked then for coming. He
stated that the reasons for his previous Council Orders regarding the Shaughnessy
Hospital was to insure that the functions of City Government would remain with the
people of Salem, and that it doesn't slip away. When the decision was made by the
Trustees to look to outside management, even as a temporary measure, and the City
Council had to read about it in the newspaper in order to be aware of what was happen-
ing, it was time to put things on hold until the City Council had some input into the
matter. He further stated that the final decision will rest with the City Council,
��
and not the Trustees. Councillor Swiniuch then cited the enabling legislation that
established the hospital and the Board of Trustees. He further stated that he wanted
assurances that the Shaughnessy Hospital cannot be made so dependent upon Salem
Hospital that if and when the time came to consider the sale of the hospital, that the
City of Salem still has a bargaining tool to work with.
530
JULY 9, 1986
Councillor Gauthier agreed with Councillor Swiniuch, and felt that the Board of
Trustees should know how the Council feels about this matter.
Councillor O'Leary stated that he personally had stressed to the Trustees to
get together with the Council on matter of financial importance, but the Trustees chose
not to do so. Therefore, it was necessary for this meeting.
® Councillor Grace stated that her biggest problem was possible employee lay-offs
and promises being made to insure the jobs of upper management. Dr. Kaplan responded
that there would be no lay-offs. As a matter of fact, he stated, he felt there would
possibly be more jobs opening up. Attorney Serafini, representing Salem Hospital,
responded that as far as he knows, there have been no promises made to anyone.
Councillor Nutting asked Dr. Iomastro what are the long term expectations with
this management proposal.
Dr. Iomastro felt that the City of Salem could have the best medical complex of
its type in the state, outside of Boston.
Councillor Harvey stated that he respected the Trustees for their decision to
award the contract to Salem Hospital, but also that he was glad for this meeting in
order to alleviate problems between the two bodies, and he would hope, in the future,
there would be more communication between the two bodies, since it is the City Council
that has to answer to the taxpayers and account for their tax dollars.
Councillor Fhrfaro commended the Trustees for looking toward outside help to
run the hospital, and thereby reducing the burden upon the taxpayers.
Councillor Nutting felt that the Council and Trustees have resolved a few
misunderstandings after tonights meeting, and wished the Trustees good luck on this
new endeavor.
Mayor Salvo advised the Council that since these concerns were met and discussed,
it was time to moved forward and make a decision.
President McCabe advised the Mayor and Trustees that this meeting was called
for discussion only, and therefore, no action could be taken tonight. Any action
will have have to wait until next week's meeting on July 17.
Councillor Swiniuch stated that the Council must have a written legal assurance
that this proposal has no appearance of a take-over by Salem Hospital. As in the past,
once the City gives up something to outside contract, it never returns to the control
of the city, such as the Ambulance Service, Parking Facilities, Trash disposal, etc.
We have to insure that we will not lose our great financial asset.

JULY 9, 1986 _..._
Councillor Nowak asked if Salem Hospital was prepared to bid on the Shaughnessy
Hospital.
Attorney Serafini stated that in the proposal, there is a provision to inter into
discussion for the long teen affiliation of the two hospitals.
Councillor Harrington stated that the Council is still waiting upon an opinion
from the City Solicitor regarding the Trustees authority to enter into contracts, and
til he receives such an opinion, he is not prepared to vote upon the matter one way
r another.
There being no further discussion, Councillor Grace moved that the meeting be
djourned at 8:46 P.M. It was so voted.

JOINT PUBLIC HEARING WITH PLANNING BOARD
A Joint Public Hearing of the City Council and the Planning Board ,,as held in the
Council Chamber on Thursday, July 17, 1986 at 7:00 P.M. for the purpose of discussing
a proposed zoning amendment regarding the location of accessory buildings and sheds
from property lot lines. Notice of this hearing was posted on June 26, 1986 at 12:38
P.M. and advertised in the Salam Evening News on July 2 arra 9, 1986.
Councillors Nowak, Swiniuch, and Martineau were absent.
Council President George P. McCabe presided.
In attendance were the following members of the Planning Board: Chairman Walter
Power, Manbers Linda Vaughan, Kenneth May, John Butler, and Planning Board Aide Dale
Yale.
Mr. Power turned the hearing over to City Planner Gerard Kavanaugh who made a
presentation explaining the proposed change. Currently, the zoning ordinances states
that in order to place an accessory building or shed in a rear yard, the shed must be
placed 10 feet from the side lot line, and 20 feet from the rear lot line. This causes
a hardship for some property owners, as there are many small lots in the city, and
therefore, a property owner cannot meet the requirements. The proposed amerxament would
reduce the rear lot requirements from 20 feet to 5 feet, and the side lot requirement
would remain the same. The size of the accessory building could not exceed 1% of the
total square footage of the lot. For example, if the lot is 100 square feet, the
shed could not exceed 10' x 10' .
Appearing in favor of the proposed ordinance change were Mr. George Amenta, 11
Marlborough Road, and Mr. Ron Blanchette, 7 Taft Road.
There was no one appearing in opposition.
Councillor Nutting stated that the change is long overdue, and he welcomes it.
Councillor Gauthier questioned the 1% figure, and stated that for a very small lot,
a shed wouldn't be large enough to hold a lawn mover. Mr. Kavanaugh stated that the
Planning Board will look into these different aspects before making their final deci-
sion.
There being no further discussion, the hearing adjourned at 7:20 P.M.

PUBLIC HEARING =_
A Public Hearing of the City Council was held in the Council Chamber on Thursday,
August 28, 1986 at 7:00 P.M. for the purpose of discussing the allocating of local
property tax levy among the five property classes for the fiscal year of 1986, and the
residential and open space exemption options. Notice of this hearing was posted on
August 7,1986 at 2:41 P.M. , and advertised in the Salem Evening News on August 14 and
21, 1986.
There was no one absent.
Council President George P. McCabe presided.
Chairman Assessor Peter M. Caron, and Assessor Members Frank Kulik and Walter
Groszyk were also present.
Council President McCabe then turned the hearing over to Chairman Assessor Peter
M. Caron. Mr. Caron explained the tax structure, and stated that if all properties
were assessed equally at 100%, the tax rate would be $17.45. At a residential factor
of 71.8413%, the tax rate would be $12.54 residential and $26.17 commercial per thous
There are three areas which contributed to the increase in taxes this year. First,
is the public utilities. The Assessors' ability to levy taxes is limited under the
law, and the court will always uphold an appeal by the utilities. Second, is ccmmercia
growth. There was virtually none in Salem, with Almy Is gone, empty store fronts, and
a lack of new commercial construction. Third, is residential. The real estate market
has virtually skyrocketed. If not for the high sales, and high selling prices, the
city probably could have held the 65% residential factor.
There were numerous residents present, and the floor was opened to questions.
There being no further discussion, the hearing adjourned at 8:00 P.M.

All Councillors were present.
Council President George P. McCabe presided.
Council President McCabe then called upon City Solicitor Michael E. O'Brien to
address the Council.
Mr. O'Brien stated that the reason for this executive session, is the upcoming
litigation regarding Winter Island, in which the City is a defendant. The matter has
been in Superior Court for a year and a half, and a trial date is now scheduled for
September. The Board of Health is being sued officially and individually, as well as
the Mayor officially and individually, by Salem Sound Development Corporation, who
I � signed a lease with former Mayor Levesque for a Marina on Winter Island.
II Saler Sound is seeking $5 million dollars in damages. Inview of the extreme
amount of money involved, I would like to bring in someone else to represent the Mayor
IIand the Board of Health individually. As there are no funds in the Legal Department
budget for representation of this nature, I'm asking now for Council authorization to
IIhire Attorney Douglas Randall, and at a later date, a request for a supplemental appro-
priation will be made.
Councillor Martineau asked if Mr. O'Brien could give the Council an estimate of
the cost. Mr. O'Brien stated that at $150.00 per lour trial time, and if the trial
continues for two weeks, we could be looking at possibly $15,000.00.
Councillor Furfaro asked if Mr. Randall were a specialist. Mr. O'Brien stated
yes, and that's the reason we would go with him. Mr. Randall literally wrote the book
I ' "Massachusetts Practice" which covers all areas of municipal law.
li Councillor Swiniuch moved to support the request of Mr. O'Brien. It was so voted
by a unanimous roll call vote of 11 yeas, 0 nays, 0 absent.

An Bmergency Meeting of the City Council was held in the Council Chamber on
Friday, November 21, 1986 at 1:30 P.M. for the purpose of confirming the declaration
of emergency to repair a 30" water main on Conant Street in Danvers. This emergency
affects the health, safety, and welfare of the citizens of the City of Salem. (M.G.L.
Ch. 39, S. 23A, and Ch. 40, S. 4G)
Council President George P. McCabe presided.
Councillor Martineau moved to suspend the rules to allow Mr. Paul Niman, Director
of Public Services, to address the Council. There were no objections.
Mr. Niman stated that the break on the 30" main occurred last night between the
hours of 12:00 Midnight and 1:00 A.M. The City was notified at 3:00 A.M. and responded
immediately. By this time, we had lost a majority of the Folly Hill Reservoir, better
than 50%. The valve on the 20" main is not working, so we cannot feed the city with th
20" main. Currently, there is water throughout the entire city within the water pipes.
The Gallows Hill water tank is 8/10 full. We have completed emergency hook-ups to
Peabody, Danvers, Marblehead, and Swampscott to supplement the water supply.
We have obtained bids from three contractors; Mackey, Linskey, and Granese.
Mackey was the low bidder. The contractor will provide the heavy equipment, but D.P.W.
crews will make the repairs. Sometime tonight, the water should be back on, but it
will take another 2 days in order to fill the reservoir. Water samples are continuous)
being taken in order to insure the health of the residents.
The emergency is being declared in case we run into something the city crews
cannot handle, and this way; we can continue the work. The majority of the work to
be done is cutting the pipe, replacing the pipe, and extensive surface repairs to
the street. There was extensive damage done to private property in the area, with
many flooded cellars.
Currently, the city uses approximately 51, million gallons of water a day. Right
now, we are receiving 5 mullion gallons, partially from Gallows Hill, what might be
remaining in the pipes, and the emergency connections to surrounding cities. If we
conserve water over the next couple of days, we should get by.
Tanker trucks from surrounding Fire Departments are currently at the Fire
Stations in case there is a fire.
Councillor Gauthier moved to declare the above matter an emergency under Mass-
achusetts General Laws Chapter 39, Section 23A. It was so voted by a roll call vote

provisions of the Charter. Resident Sticker
Ladies & Gentlemen of the Council: Parking Officer
I herewith return to you Council Order #861 entitled "Resident Sticker Parking
Enforcement Officer" vetoed.
While I understand that implementation of the new Resident Sticker Parking
Ordinance will create additional duties for the Parking Clerk, I cannot approve such
an order at this time due to the current moratoria m.on non-union employee raises. Any
increase in pay for non-union personnel should be approached in a comprehensive way
rather than piecemeal. Also, I am in hopes if implementing an outside program of
collecting past due parking fines which may allow the Parking Clerk more time for
admini.sterine the Resident Sticker Parking Program.
Hopefully, in the near future, I will be able to reconsider this matter as part
of a comprehensive review of the pay structure and responsibilities of non-union
personnel.
Very truly yours,
S/ Anthony V. Salvo, Mayor
