Connors and Maureen A. Connors, individuals who reside at and own property located at 18 Autran Avenue, North Andover, Essex County, Massachusetts, and are persons aggrieved within the meaning of M.G.L.Chapter 40A, section 17, by the decision of the Board of Appeals of the Town of North Andover in the granting of a variance to Defendants W. Thomas Bower and Louise A. Bower. 2. The Defendants W. Thomas Bower and Louise A. Bower are individuals who reside at and own property located at 591 Massachusetts Avenue, North Andover, Essex County, Massachusetts. i j i i ii i� The other Defendants are the duly constituted and regular members of the Board of 'Appeals of the Town of North Andover, and all reside in the Town of North Andover as follows : FRANK SERIO, JR 250 Hillside Road North Andover, Mass. 01845 ALFRED E. FRIZELLE 131 Appleton Street North Andover, Mass. 01845 �i WILLIAM J. SULLIVAN 405 Salem Street North Andover, Mass: 01845 AUGUSTINE E. NICKERSON 100 ,Moody Street if North Andover, Mass. 01845 i I ' WALTER F. SOULE 70 Raleigh Tavern Lane North Andover, Mass. 01845 RAYMOND A. VIVENZIO 11 Appledore Lane North Andover, Mass. 01845 I 1 ; r JOHN SIMONS 74 Rock Road North Andover, Mass. 01845 4 . The Defendants W. Thomas Bower and Louise A. Bower filed a Petition for Variance concerning a lot of land owned by them located on Autran Avenue, North Andover, Essex County, Massachusetts , which lot contains 5 , 000 square feet, seeking relief as to lot area, street frontage and side yard set back requirements. 5. The zoning by-law for said Autran Avenue is R-4 , requiring 12, 500 square feet lot area, 100 foot street frontage and 15 foot side yard set back for construction of a single family dwelling . 6 . The Defendants W. Thomas Bower and Louise A. Bower also ; own a lot containing 6390 square feet adjoining the lot for which they sought a variance, which adjoining lot merged . with the lot at issue in the Petition for Variance by virtue of a deed duly recorded in the. North Essex County Registry of Deeds at Book 1350, Page 39 . i7. The 6390 square foot lot does not comply with current . zoning requirements, and the Defendants W. Thomas Bower and Louise A. Bower need a variance to allow a reduction in area of a prior non-conforming lot, and to permit the continued itexistence of both lots neither of which meet minimum ;; dimensional requirements, which relief has not been requested nor granted. i i 8. On August 15, 1985, the Defendant members of the Board of Appeals granted the variance requested by the Defendants . W. Thomas Bower and Louise A. Bower, certified copies of the ji Decision and Notice of Decision being attached hereto and il marked exhibits 1 and 2. fi 9. The members of the Board of Appeals exceeded their authority in granting said variance, in that: LI ; l a) The Board did not specifically find that owing to it circumstances relating to the soil conditions, shape, or topography of such land or structures and especially + , affecting such land or structures and but not affecting i generally the zoning district in which it is located, a II 1 literal enforcement of the provisionsofthe ordinance or 1! by-law would involve substantial hardship, financial or 'I otherwise, to the petitioner. 'I b) The Board did not specifically find that desirable , relief may be granted without substantial detriment to the public good. C) The Board did not specifically find that , ' desirable relief may be granted without nullifying or substantially derogating from the intent or purpose of such ordinance or by-law. d) The Board otherwise failed to comply with statutory authority in granting said variance. 10. The Defendant Members of the Board of Appeals further exceeded their authority in that there are no special ; circumstances affecting this lot which do not generally affect the zoning district in which it is located. The granting of the variance creates a substantial detriment to the public good, has an adverse affect on the land of the Plaintiffs and derogates from the intent and purpose of the by-law. i I WHEREFORE the Plaintiffs aintiffs seek: A) That the decision of the Board of Appeals in granting said variance be annulled. B) For such other relief as this Honorable Court may deem equitable and just under the circumstances. PAUL S. CONNORS AND MAUREEN A. CONNORS, Plaintiffs By their Attorney !i Timothy P.

Thomas Bower & Louise A. Bower 591 Mass . Ave. N. Andover, MA 01845 Application # 50 On August 15 , 1985 this Board filed a decision in the above matter which did not clearly set forth the basis for granting the variance requested by the Petition. The purpose of this memorandum is to clarify the matter. The Board voted unanimously togrant the variance as requested for a 5 ,000 sq. ft. lot subject to the following conditions : - Only a single family dwelling may be constructed thereon. - The existing garage on the Bower lot must be demolished prior to the issuance of the building permit. - The side setback of the dwelling shall be 15 ft. on the west side. - The rear setback of the dwelling shall be 25 ft. - The plans must be revised and resubmitted to the Board showing a description of Lot A and Lot B as well as the conditions set forth herein. In granting the variance the Board finds that each of the conditions of Section 10 . 4 of the Zoning ByLaw have been satisfied. Specifically, the Board finds that the lot in question was deeded as a separate lot; that the size of lots in the immediate area are of a similar size and, the Board has granted in the past in this neighborhood _.similar variances . The hardship in question relates to the use of the lot because of its size and shape and the change of zoning in the area which prohibited its use for residential purposes . The Board finds that the relief granted is not a detriment to the public good and in fact is beneficial thereto by providing necessary affordable housing in the area. The - W Page ,2 RE : ' Petition: Bower - #50 relief does not derogate from the intent and purpose of the ByLaw which encourages the most appropriate use of land.

Thomas Bower/Louise A. Bower North Andover, MA 01845 591 Massachusetts Ave. Petition #50-85 Dear Mr. Long: The Board of Appeals held a public hearing on Monday evening, August 12 , 1985 upon the application of W. Thomas Bower & Louise A. Bower. The hearing was advertised in the North Andover Citizen on July 25 , 1985 and August 1, 1985 and all abutters were notified by regular mail. The following members were present and voting: Frank Serio, Jr. , Chairman, Alfred E. Frizelle, Esp. , Vice Chair-. man; Augustine W. Nickerson, Clerk; William J. Sullivan, and Raymond A. Vivenzio. The petitioners seek a variance from the provisions of Section 7 , Paragraph 7. 1, 7. 2 , 7. 3, and Table 2 of the Zoning By Law so as to permit variance as to lot area, street frontage and side yard setback. Mr. and Mrs . Bower were represented by Mr. Peter Caruso, and he showed a plan of the proposed dwelling. The lot is located on Auturn Avenue with 5 ,000 square feet of land and is on an unccepted street, where almost every lot has a demension of 5,000 square feet as laid out according to plan 406. The petitioners were led to be- lieve that this lot was in fact a buildable lot. Many houses in this neighborhood are in fact on 5 ,000 square foot lots . The character of the proposed dwelling is in keeping with the surround- ing neighborhood. The abutter on the side of the proposed lot, Mr . P. Connors, spoke in opposition. Claims square foot requested is less than k the size of the zoning bylaw requirements and dwelling would be closer to his property than allowed. Concerned for safety of children and future value of property. Motion made by Mr. Frizelle to grant variance subject to the following: demolish existing garage on Bower lot before Building Permit issued 'f for lot in question. Limit west side setback to 15 feet, rear to 25 feet, limited to single residence only, grant lot size 5 ,000 feet, . easterly 10 feet and revise plans to show old lot as A and new lot WER' n Page 2 as lot B.
