TOWN OF NORTH ANDOVER MASSACHUSETTS BOARD OF APPEALS April 22, 1985 Mr. Daniel Long, Town Clerk Robert Meikle Town Office Building 871 Salem Street North Andover, MA 01845 Petition No. 15- 185 Dear Mr. Long: The Board of Appeals held a public hearing on Monday evening, March 11, 1985 upon the ,petition of Robert Meikle . The hearing was advertised in the North Andover Citizen on February 21 and 28, 1985 and all abutters were notified by regular mail. The following members were present and voting: Frank Serio, Jr. , Chairman; Alfred E. Frizelle, Esq: , Vice Chairman; William J. Sullivan; and Walter F. Soule. The petitioner seeks a variance from the provisions of Section 7, Paragraph 7. 3 and Table 2 of the Zoning By Law to permit relief from the side setback requirement to allow the construction of a garage and a Special Permit under Section 4, Paragraph 4 . 121 (17) of the Zoning By Law to allow an in-law apartment, or "family suite" on premises located at 871 Salem Street. Testimony revealed that the in-law- apartment, consisting of a bed- room, living room, kitchen and bath, is needed for Mr. Meikle 's mother. The apartment will be located in the existing garage and the variance is needed to construct a new garage on the parcel. Following opposition from two abutters, the variance request was withdrawn by the applicant. The Board, upon a motion made by Mr. Frizelle and seconded by Mr. Sullivan, voted unanimously to take the petition under advisement and rendered a decision at a regular meeting held on Monday evening, April 8, 1985 , with Members Serio, Frizelle, Sullivan and Soule again present and voting. Robert Meikle 871 Salem Street Petition No. 15-185 April 22 , 1985 Page 2 Upon a motion made by Mr. Frizelle and seconded by Mr. Soule , the Board voted unanimously to grant the Special Permit for the in- law apartment for the existing dwelling and garage only with no additions under the provisions of the Special Permit subject to the following conditions 1. The front entrance shall be in the presently existing breeze- way. 2. There shall be no other entrance to the family suite in the front of the building. 3. Prior to the issuance of a building permit, the Special Permit shall be recorded at the Registry of Deeds by the Board of Appeals. 4. The family suite is solely for occupancy by Irene Meikle , mother of Robert Meikle . 5 . The Special Permit shall expire at the time Irene Meikle ceases to occupy the family suite. 6 . The Special Permit shall expire at the time the premises are conveyed to any person, partnership, trust or corporation. 7. The applicant, by acceptance of the Certificate of occupancy issued pursuant to the Special Permit, grants to the Building Inspector or his lawful designee the right to inspect the premises . In granting the Special Permit, the Board finds that all the con- ditions set forth in Section 10 . 31 of the Zoning By Law have been satisfied. Specifically, the Board finds: 1. That the specific site, 871 Salem Street, is an appropriate location for an in-law apartment since the proposed apartment will be located in an existing garage with no substantial exterior change to the existing dwelling. 2 . That the use as developed will not adversely affect the neigh- borhood, since the use when completed will not change the single family appearance of the premises . 3. There will be no nuisance or serious hazard to vehicles or pedestrians since there will be only one occupant of the ..in- law apartment. Robert Meikle 871 Salem Street Petition No. 15-185 April 22 , 1985 Page 3 4. Adequate and appropriate facilities will be provided for the proper operation of the in law apartment. 5. The use will be in harmony° with the general purpose and intent of the Zoning By Law. Sincerely, BOARD OF APPEALS Frank Serio, Jr. , Chairman 7w
