MASSACHUSETTS 'dooNOSRI m1h, �Zo BOARD OF APPEALS 10 b2 E�Z2 August 27, 1974 William F. Somerville 91 Chadwick Street Petition No. 13-174 John J, Lyons, Town Clerk Town Office Building North Andover, Massachusetts Dear Sir: A public hearing was held by the Board of Appeals on July 8, 1974 upon application of William F. Somerville who requested a variation of Section 6.1 and 6.2 of the Zoning By—Law so as to permit the division of land with 'building thereon for the purpose of conveyance as shown on a plan of land located at 91 Chadwick St. The following members were present and voting: Frank Serio, Jr., Chairman; Alfred E. Frizelle, Vice Chairman; Dr. Eugene A. Beliveau, Clerk; William N. Salemme and Louis DiFruscio. The hearing was advertised in the Lawrence Eagle—Tribune on June 22 and 29, 1974 and all abutters were duly notified by regular mail. The land is located at the south side of Chadwick Street and the west side of Moody Street and consists of 23,166 sq. ft. The petitioner desires to divide the land into two parcels consisting of Lot A (11,466 sq. ft.) and Lot B (11,700 sq. ft,), Lot A has a 2-;'i- story wood dwelling and a wooden garage located thereon. The area is zoned R-4, having a lot area minimum of 12,500 sq. ft* and street frontage minimum of 100 ft. The Board finds that since both Lots A & B have sufficient street frontage that no variance is needed and, therefore, does not pass on this request under Sec. 6.2 of the By—Law. On the question of Sec. 6.1 a variance is necessary. At the hearing the petitioner stated that he has owned the land for approximately 35 ears. The lots have essentially maintained a separate identity, with lot B presently pa y y y� overgrown. The petitioner is elderly and retired and wishes to sell Lot Be The Board, in reviewing the provisions of Section 9.5 of the By—Law, finds that each of the provisions therein have been met. There are numerous other small lots in the area August 27, 1974 William F. Somerville Petition and, in fact, some are smaller than the land in question. In granting this petition the zoning district will not be adversely affected in light of the present make-yup of this area. To deny this application, in the opinion of the Board, would create a substantial hardship, financial or otherwise as the petitioner and the Board is mindful in granting this petition of the provisions of Sec. 6.8 of the By—Law which grants exceptions in certain instances. Further, to require the land to remain in its present state would create an undue burden upon this petitioner. The intent of the By�Law would not be nullified nor substantially derogated in light of the relatively small amount of area for which the variance is granted. Upon the motion of Dr. Eugene Beliveau, seconded by Mr. DiFruscio the Board voted unanimously to GRANT a variance under Sec. 6.1 of the Zoning By—Law with the stipulation thatAM land be used only for the construction of a single—family home.
