LIST OF PARTIES IN INTEREST Name Address Post Realty Trust 451 Andover Street, North Andover, MA Town of Andover Merrimack College Turnpike St., North Andover, MA Francis & Joanne McNulty 200 Elm Street, Andover, MA Andrew & Irene Soucy 485 Andover St. , Andover, MA ( Use additional sheets if necessary) SHEET A In the event that the two (2) Lots, Number 471 Andover Street, and Number 477 Andover Street, have somehow merged into one Lot for Zoning purposes, the Applicant requests a Variance to permit the separate Conveyance of each Lot. Number 471 Andover Street is shown at Lot B, and Number 477 Andover Street is shown on Lot A on the accompanying Plan. Each of these Lots have for over sixty (60) years been separately deeded whenever a Conveyance has taken place. SHEET B BASIS OF APPLICATION Each of the two (2) Lots involved have been conveyed for over sixty (60) years by means of separate Deeds. Hatem and Osgood acquired one of the Lots in 1972, and acquired the other Lot in 1973. When the Applicant took Title in September of 1982, Applicant received a separate Deed for each Lot. Neither Lot has ever been "available for combination with or use in connection with" each other. As a result, it is difficult to vision two (2) Lots having become merged into one (1) Lot for Zoning purposes. In the event that any such merger has occurred, the Applicant seeks a Variance under the Paragraphs of Section 7 which would prevent the Lots from being separately conveyed as separate Lots. If the Zoning By-Law is literally enforced, the Applicant will suffer a hardship due to circumstances which especially effect these premises and do not generally effect premises within the B4 Zoning District. For reference purposes, the separate Deeds for each of these Lots have been attached hereto. BENJAMIN C. OSGOOD of North Andover,. Essex Count {• • y,`,Massacfiuset�s'"' and' VICTOR L.
