DECISION OF
NORTHAMPTON ZONING BOARD OF APPEALS LU
TIONS
Vli?0
At a meeting held on September 14, 1988, the Zoning.
Board of Appeals of the City of Northampton voted
unanimously to GRANT the Application of Karen Gazda for a
Special Permit under the Provisions of Section 5. 2( 14) of
the Zoning Ordinance of the City of Northampton, and voted
unanimously to issue a Finding under the Provisions of
Section 9.3 (c) that conducting a home occupation in a pre-
existing nonconforming dwelling at 582 Spring Street, Leeds,
would not be substantially more detrimental to the
neighborhood than the existing structure. Present and
voting were Chairman Robert C. Buscher, Dr. Peter Laband,
and M. Sanford Weil, Jr.
The Findings were as follows:
The use requested is listed in the Table of Use
Regulations as requiring a Special Permit in the URA Zone
where the dwelling is located.
The requested use bears a positive relationship to the
public convenience, in that Applicant's present place of
business at 13 Old South Street is going to be torn down,
and permitting a home occupation allows the Applicant to
continue to serve her clients.
The requested use will not create undue traffic
congestion, since clients will be treated one at a time on
an appointment basis, and there is a circular driveway so
that cars will not be backing onto Spring Street.
The requested use will not overload any municipal
systems.
The requested use will not impair the integrity or
character of the district. It will be conducted in the
basement of the dwelling, there will be no outside sign of
any nature, and there will be no employees. 1
