We have recently made an offer to buy a building located at 97 Canal Street,and our price ^ offer has been accepted In order to avoid any problems later,we want to be sure that this location is zoned for our type business,a small machine shop. • We are similar in operation to a sheet metal shop,and only produce small quantities of prototype parts.Much of our work is in the R&D,CAD/CAM,and design area Our noise • level is low inside,and should be insignificant outside the building.We have no venting requirements. At this time we have only one frill time employee(myself)and one part timer,and have no plans to hire in the near fume.Off street parking in front of the building should be mare than adequate. Currently we are located in Cummings Center in Beverly,and our present neighbors are a Biochemist,Emanuell College,a drapery designer,and a scientific research lab.Our operation fits in well in this environment.Our present lease at Cummings expires on April 30 I999,and we are already approved for another five year option on our current lease agreement,but we Owould prefer to purchase our own building while conditions justify it Please advise us of your decision as soon as possible so that we can continue with the purchasing process.If I can provide any help or information please call anytime.Also,please feel free to come and see our shop as it is now,we rake a lot of pride in our well organized and modem operation.

( See attached copy) However , we have found that the existing property does not conform to the density regulations for the district in which this automobile service station is located, and that a variance was never sought or granted allowing this nonconformity. You are hereby ordered to apply for a variance within 60 days upon receipt of this letter, and to remove any unregistered vehicles from the property. Failure to comply with the requirements of this order within (30 ) days upon receipt of this letter will result in legal action being taken against you in Salem District Court .

I am a house wife and spend many hours at home. I live directly across from the repair shop. We have lived here since March" 1st, 1998. I have never seen these gentlemen working on cars in the street no longer than regular business hours . They work Monday - Saturday. They arrive around 9 a.m. and leave between 530 p.m. and 6 p.m. and on Saturdays they only work half days leaving between 1230 p.m. or 1 p.m. I rent an apartment front the gentlemen who has made a complaint against the Auto Repair Shop. This man is his own worst enemy. He has made it clear to my husband and myself he does not like Hispanic people. I truly believe he is taking his own personal problems out on the gentlemen across the street because he is miserable. When we moved into this apartment we were warned about the landlord and his disposition. It did not take very long to see why all his neighbors dislike him so much. He does not get along with anyone. He creates his own problems and blames everyone but himself. I known by writing this letter could put my apartment in jeopardy but I can not sit by and watch these gentlemen get continuously harassed by Pete Richard, they are only trying to run a business . I hope by writing this letter these gentlemen can come to work and not be bothered by Pete Richard ever again. If you have any questions you may call us at our home our number is 745-6884 .
