Mr. Donald Belanger, Building Insp.

Re: 56-58 Church Street, North Andover, MA
Dear Mr. Belanger:
Reference is made to your letter of May 3, 2017, to my client (copy enclosed), in which
you make the following allegation regarding the above-referenced property:
The expansion of a Legal Nonconforming use (Two (2) family to a Three (3) family)
would require a variance from the Zoning Board of Appeals (ZBA).
I enclose a copy of the variance granted by the Zoning Board of Appeals, as evidenced by
the meeting minutes of the Board dated July 19, 1971, Contrary to your assertion, the ZBA
granted a variance for this property. Therefore, there is no factual or legal basis for your
assertion, or the Cease and Desist Order.
Based on the foregoing, we formally request that you rescind or withdraw this Order
immediately, failing which my client will consider his legal options against the Town for
violations of his civil rights.
Very truly yours,
Matthew A. C y
Encl,
