Brennan Salem Fire Department Salem, Mass. Sir: On this date I inspected the vacant, two-and-a-half story dwelling at 2 Blaney Street to determine if this building represents a fire hazard. Following this' in- spection, it is my opinion that this buildingwhich has deteriorated beyond any reasonable expectation of repair; is a fire hazard. Some conditons which were noted: Absence of most windows on the second and third floors, leaving the building open to the elements. Rooms on all floors contain Targe amounts of abandoned furniture, personal and household effects,, which make for an increased fire load. The. foundation wall at the right rear is broken, leaving an opening about three feet wide into the cellar.The VFW has repeatedly boarded this opening and just as repeatedly, the covering have been torn off. There is a continuing problem with children' removing first floor coverings and enetering the building.Mr. Morin of the VFW, reports an occasional problem with vagrantss in the building. . The roof is useless and the second and 'third floor rear walls seem to be pulling away. from the structure, probably, a result of the weather., Interior damage to this houseis so extensive as to preclude any efforts at re- habilitation and it would be my recommendation that this building be removed as soon as possible. Respectfully submitted, t l Robert J. 6�rowleY.

Structural joists and girts have deteriorated to a point that they and the exterior sills would have to be replaced, Upon further inspection it is my professional opinion that the structure is well over 50% un-rehabitable.

Levesque 92 Washinaton Street Salem, Massachusetts RE: Council Order #480 "Building Inspector Issue for demolition of r'2131aney Street" Dear Mayor Levesque: I have examined the above City Council Order at your request. Section 123 of of the Commonwealth of Massachusetts State Building 'Code places responsibility for determining whether or not a structure is dangerous to life or limb and ought, as a result, be removed or made safe with the Inspector of Buildings. As I indicated earlier (see attached opinion January 24, 1979) , a determination by the Building Inspector that a building is unsafe or dangerous would permit the structure' s demolition even though the building is located in a duly established Historic District. Because I can find no statutory authority delegatinq to the City Council the responsibility for determining a building to be unsafe or dangerous , that portion of the Order directinq the Building Inspector to issue a demolition permit has no legally operative effect. However, I recommend that the Order be considered to be "information" under Section 123 which requires the Building Inspector to inspect the premises. Because of this conclusion I do not address the question of the Order' s val - idity under the City Council Rules. Very truly yours , RICHARD W.

Article IV of Ch: 19 of the Code parallels M_G.L. Ch. 40C. Section 8 of Ch. 40C provides in part, that nothing in Chapter 40C shall be construed: to prevent the demolition of any feature (including a building ) , which the Building j Inspector shall certify is required by the public safety r because of an unsafe or dangerous condition. S; nce' I am _ not aware that any such certification has been determined by the Salem BuildingInspector -theprovisions of Section 8 remain in full force.- The relevant section of Ch. 40C in this instance is Section 3, which deals with the establishment, enlargement, or reduction of an existing district and with the procedure for creating by ordinance and amending such ordinance, such an historic district.' A copy of Ch. 40C, Section 3 , appears as Appendix A to this opinion. Paragraph 2.1of Section 3 states that an historic district may be reduced in the manner Provided for creation of the initial district. That procedure is set forth in Paragraph 1 of Section 3 . M.G.L. Ch, 40C, Section 3, Paragraph 3 , provides: w_ "Any ordinance or by-law creating an historic district may, from time to time be amended in any manner not inconsistent with the provisions of this chapter by The procedure described in the remainder of that paragraph would .be inconsistent with the procedure of Paragraph- 1 and 2 . The procedures in Paragraph 3 , therefore, would not apply to the proposed ordinance reducing the district' s boundaries . f Ks. Josephine Fusco - 2 - January 24, 1979 Cit Clerk .. Therefore, prior to the reduction of an historic district' s boundaries , an investigation and report on the historical and architectural significance of the building tc• be excluded from the historic district shall be made 1j the Historic District Commission whic1i shall transmit _opies of its report to the Planning Board in the City of Salem and to the AiassachusettsHistorical Commission for their consideration and recommendation Not less than sixty ( 60 ) days after such transmittal, the Historic District Commission shall hold a public hearing. on the report after such notice, as the section requires. The Committee shall then submit a final report with its recommendations together with a map of the proposed district, as amended.

Powers, Inspector of Buildings Department of Public Property One Salem Green Salem, Massachusetts 01970 Dear Mr. Powers: As you know, the Salem City Council voted second passage on Thursday, April 12, an ordinance to remove the property at 2 Blaney Street from the Derby Street Historic District and demolish same. e ordinance is currently before the Mayor. Should the Mayor sign - this ordinance or return the ordinance unsigned, the Veterans of Foreign Wars, Witch City Post, owners of the property, may consider this action legally sufficient to permit them to seek a demolition permit from your office. It is the position of the Salem Historical Commission and also as per our understanding also the position of Historic Salem, Inc. that even once signed or returned unsigned by the Mayor, this ordinance violates Massachusetts General Laws Chapter 40C and the Derby Street Historic District Ordinance as these statutes pertain to the removal of a building from a local historic district. We would, therefore, suggest that any demolition permit issued Would also be contrary to these statutes and would strongly advise your office to seek legal counsel before issuing a demolition permit. The Commission is most appreciative of your support of historic districting in Salem and your cooperation with our Commission and feel we are obliged to notify you of this position on this legal question.

August 6, 1981 Attorney Philip D. Moran 49 Federal 'Street Salem, Ma 01970 Dear Mr. Moran: As a result of an inspection conducted on this date of the premises situated at 2 Blaney Street, Salem, Ma. , the'following conclusions and recommendations are made in the interest of fire prevention and public safety. The structure is now vacant and in an extremely deteriorated condition. Windows and doors are broken, portions of the roof are missing, exposing roof timbers to the elements , sections of the foundation have collapsed and supporting building members are victims of rot and termites. The structural stability of the building is questionable. In its present state, this building is a target for vandalism, a threat to the safety of the public because of its weakened condition and an ever present fire hazard in a combustible and congested neighborhood. The ultimate solution to this problem is the razing of this building. ] That is my charge to you and those whom you represent, i .e. the V.F.W. espectfully yours , • James F. Brennan Chief Salem Fire Department JFB:sI cc: Bldg. Inspector Fire Prevention File TO: Councillor George Nowak FROM: John B. Powers, Building Inspector SUBJECT: Request for appraisal of the building at 2 Blaney Street, Salem, MA Subject building is located in a B-1 Zone which in essence may be catagorized as a neighborhood business district which is intended for uses meeting daily shopping needs for the convience of the adjacent residential area, which has considerable historic significance. The building previously was utilized as a multi-use catagory with a restaurant of sorts on the street floor and the remainder utilized residentially. Evidently in time past the framing of the first floor showed some signs of failure and dry rot, and repairs were attempted in the form of shoring. Although the repair work was formidable, no real attempt was made to establish "footings" for the bracing. If the building is to be renovated, this condition should be given immediate attention as unquestionably the dry rot in some of the lumber is progressive. The roof of the building is leaking in numerous places and moisture at this time has permeated the walls and ceilings, causing plaster to flake off, and pieces of the ceiling to fall. There is no heat in the building to halt the destruction that will be caused by this condition. There are holes in the foundation of the building which could cause an . infestation of rats or mice but this could be corrected fairly easily by caulking of parging, and grouting. Unquestionably the plumbing and wiring of the building will call for practically complete replacement and at considerable expense, and it is evident that the building is a constant victim of vandalism. In summerization the building is not structurally dangerous or unsound at this time, but should be given immediate attention as it can become both a fire hazard and health problem if not given attention immediately. Financially speaking it is also possible the renovations called for may not be feasable. A certificate for occupancy cannot be issued at this time due to the deficiencies noted. s (situ of "i0ttlem, Auseadjusetts Firr Oepartmrnt 1Irahquartrra w.iumrt.�o" - damn �. rrnnan 48 11afayette Otreet shier January 9, 1979 Mr. Lucien Morin ~—� President, V.

The structure is now vacant and boarded up in an apparent attempt by the owners to keep the structure from vandalism. However, the structure has been vacant for a considerable time and while some vandalism has occurred from time to time, it appears that an effort should be made to furthur secure the structure from vandalism or remove the structure to prevent a fire hazard.

Powers, Supervisor of Public Property, Inspector of Buildings and Zoning Officer Department of Public Property One Salem Green Salem, Massachusetts 01970 Dear Mr. Powers: The Salem Historical Commission would like to bring to your attention its concern for the protection and preservation of two seriously deteriorating properties in the Derby Street area. These are the property at 2 Blaney Street owned by the Veterans of Foreign Wars Witch City Post 1524, Inc. and the property directly behind this owned by Thomas-Mackey and Sons, Inc. at 10 Blaney. Those-buiadings__are in a key Salem location, one of Salem's most .,Sltoric and most visit areas. The location of the 2 Blaney Street property in both the rby Street Historic District (local) and its listing as part of Derby Waterfront District on the National Register of Historic Places attest to its significance both locally and nationally. While 10 Blaney is jut outside these districts and despite its present condition, its high architectural significance makes it a very important Salem asset. We urge your department to see that every effort is wade to assure their protection. 0 Very truly yours, Richard ckey Chairman RS:ebw ccs John J. Toomey, Health Department; James F.
