DECISION ON PETITION SUBMITTED BY ROBERT AND RUTH ARMSTRONG CONCERNING
PROPERTY LOCATED AT 18 BAY VIEW AVENUE - R-1 DISTRICT
A hearing on this petition was held on September 12, 1978. Notices were mailed
postpaid to the Petitioners, abutters and others and the notice of hearing was duly
advertised in the Salem Evening News on August 2S and September 1, 1978 in accordance
with Mass. Gen. Laws, Chapter 808.
The following members of the Board were present for the hearing: Jane T. Lundregan,
Donald Eames, Arthur Labrecque and James Boulger,
The Petitioner represented himself before the Board. The Petitioner wishes to add
a porch to the existing building at 18 Bay View Avenue. Said porch would be less than
the required 1S ft. for front setback. The Petitioner presented photograph, to show
where the ;abutting buildings are located. The porch will be S-, ft. from the sidewalk
at one pr.; .at and 11 ft. from the sidewalk at another point. The Petitioner noted that
the surrounding properties are all undersized and the buildings do not conform to side-
line, and front and rear setback requirements.
The Board voted unanimously to grant the variance requested. The Board found that
in granting the variance it would be in no way detrimental to the surrounding neighborhood,
and that the neighborhood itself is one of undersized lots and the abutting properties
for the most part are not conforming as to density requirements.
The Board found that the porch would in no way be detrimental to the abutting
properties. The Board also found that to deny the petition requested would cause hardshi ;
to the petitioner in that his house is small and the lot is small and the added room is
needed for living space.
