Board Members present: Douglas Hopper, Chairman; Messrs. Piemonte, Hacker _
and Feeherry and Associate Member Lusinski* Notice of the hearing was
sent to abutters and others and notices of the hearing were published in

The Petitioners have requested a Special Permit to extend the existing
non-conforming structure at 22 Beckford Street by constructing a 12' x 12"
addition on the rear of the property. The property is within an R-2 district.
The provision of the Salem Zoning Ordinance which is applicable to this
request for a Special Permit is Section V B 10, which provides
as follows:
Notwithstanding anything to the contrary appearing inthis. Ordinance,
the Board of Appeals may, in accordance with the procedure and conditions
set forth in Section VIII F and IX D,,.grant Special Permitsfor alterations
and reconstruction of nonconforming structures, and for changes,
enlargement, extension or expansion of nonconforming lots, land, structures
and uses, provided, however, that such change, extension, enlargement
or expansion shall not be substantially more detrimental than the
existing nonconforming use to the neighborhood.
In more general terms, this Board is, when reviewing Special Permit requests,
guided by the rule that a Special Permit request may be granted upon a finding
by the Board that the grant of the Special Permit will promote the public health,
safety, convenience and welfare.
The Board, after considering the evidence at the hearing on this matter,
makes the following findings of fact:
1. The proposed addition to the property has been approved by and endorsed
by the Salem Historical Commission.
2. The proposed addition was unopposed by any neighbors.
On the basis of the above findings of fact and on the evidence presented
at the public hearing, the Board of Appeals finds (i) that the proposed use
of the property will not be substantially more detrimental than the existing
structure to the neighborhood, (ii) that the proposed addition to the property
is in harmony with the Salem Zoning Ordinance. Accordingly, the Board unanimously
approved the granting of a Special Permit to the Petitioners.
