RE: 296 HIGHLAND AVENUE
Dear Mr . Touchette :
On September 15 , 1994 , in accordance with Massachusetts
General Law Chapter 40A, Section 16 , the Salem Planning Board met
to discuss the application of Mr . Gary Nadeau for a "Determination
of Specific and Material Change" to his plans for 296 Highland
Avenue which was denied by the Board of Appeal Jul 20 1994 .
PP on Y
According to Regulations , there must be an affirmative vote of
all but one member of the Planning Board to approve the specific
and material change request . Specifically, the Board needs eight
( 8 ) of the nine ( 9 ) members to endorse the request .
The Planning Board by a vote or seven ( 7 ) in favor , one ( 1 ) ,
in opposition to the motion t.o endorse the Specific and Material
Change . Having failed to garner the eighth affirmative vote
required to pass , the motion to grant fails and the petition for a
Specific and Material Change is denied .
Sincerely,
Walter B. Power , IIUyI ,
Chairman
