Zoning Board of Appeals Application
Application ID: ZBA-21-9 Date submitted: March 28, 2021
TO THE BOARD OF APPEALS:
The Undersigned represent(s)that they are the owner(s)of a certain parcel of land located at:
Address:21 CRESCENT DRIVE Zoning District:RI
An application is being submitted to the Board of Appeals for the following reason(s):
Property survey performed at 21 Crescent Drive revealed that 23 Crescent Drive is encroaching on 21 Crescent Drive by approximately
296 square feet. Jennifer$Michael Waters,owners at 23 Crescent Drive want to purchase the portion of encroachment. Prior to
submission of ANR and the planning board signing off, Mason Wells advised that a variance application would need to be submitted due
to the fact that the transfer of these pieces of land will cause what is already a non-conforming lot size at 21 Crescent Drive to become
less conforming,aka smaller.
For this reason,I am requesting:
[true]Variance(s)from provisions of Section 4.0 of the Zoning Ordinance,specifically from Lot size is already smaller than
requirements;this transaction will make lot size 296 square feet smaller. .
L]A Special Permit under Section of the Zoning Ordinance in order to
Lj Appealing a Decision of the Building Inspector:
L]Comprehensive Permit:
Current Property Use:Single Family Are Lot Dimensions Included:Yes
The Undersigned hereby petitions the Board of Appeals to vary the terms of the Salem Zoning Ordinance and allow the project to be
constructed as per the plans submitted,as the enforcement of said Zoning By-Laws would involve practical difficulty or unnecessary
hardship to the Undersigned and relief may be granted without substantially derogating from the intent and purpose of the Zoning
Ordinance.
Statement of Hardship(for Variances):
The nonconforming lot size at 21 Crescent Drive is 7,031 sq ft;after transfer it will be 6,735. Currently,the owners of 23 Crescent Drive
would like to purchase the encroachment or otherwise would have to move their existing fence and dig up a portion of their driveway and
move existing landscaping separation(railroad ties)in order to free up the 296 sq ft of land they are encroaching on and would rather
purchase the land.
