Northampton; Zoning Determination Dear Mr. Hasbrouck: I am the contract purchaser for the property located at 3 Olive Street, Northampton (hereinafter, the "Property"), which is currently owned by G&S Sandler Acquisitions LLC. Enclosed,please find the following documents in support of my request for a zoning determination for the Property: • Zoning Permit Application • Letter from Attorney Edward Etheredge, Attorney for Seller • Letter from G&S Sandler Acquisitions LLS, Current Owner • Check for Filing Fee, in the amount of Thirty Dollars (S30) As you can see from the materials, I intend to continue to use the property as it has been, as commercial office space. My business(which will occupy the space) is a law practice, and as such, I believe it will not have much of an impact on the traffic in the area. To the extent I am able, I may also lease some of the space in the Property to a tenant who also requires the use of office space. Please let me know if you need anything else in order to make the necessary zoning determination for me to proceed with the purchase of the Property. Also, please do not hesitate to contact me or my attorney, Charles Maguire, if you have any further questions. Thank you for your prompt attention to this matter. Sincerely, Bernadette Stark cc: Charles Maguire, Esq. G & S Sandler Acauisitions LLC 3 Olive Street,Northampton,MA 01060 April 12,2019 City of Northampton Louis Hasbrouck, Zoning Enforcement Officer 210 Main Street Northampton,MA 01060 Dear Mr. Hasbrouck: In regard to the request by Bernadette Stark for a determination regarding continuing commercial use of 3 Olive Street,Northampton, here is a summary of the building's use during its tenure under the ownership of the current owner,G&S Sandler Acquisitions LLC. The building has been continuously used as commercial office space by the current owner and/or its tenants since February,2001,and the property has been continuously used for commercial purposes since approximately 1900. The current owner of the property, G&S Sandler Acquisitions LLC (G&S), purchased the building from Christopher Kennedy,who previously used the property for commercial office and retail uses. G&S rented the building to ThinkGlobal Incorporated, which continuously occupied and used the building for office space, from February, 2001 through Jan. 15,2019. ThinkGlobal continued use of the building throughout 2018,during which time a proposed purchase and sale agreement was pending between G&S and 236 South Street Properties, LLC -- contingent on the - city's approval of the buyer's planned re-development of the property. In December,2018, after the buyer withdrew its development proposal with the city, G&S listed the property for sale as office space, which is consistent with its preexisting,continuing use. ThinkGlobal vacated the building as of Jan. 15, 2019,at which time G&S Sandler Acquisitions obtained "vacant building" insurance coverage. Moreover, since January 15, 2019, G&S Sandler Acquisitions has continued to pay utilities and property taxes on the building at 3 Olive Street--and to occupy and use it as an office for the sale of the property,as well as for administrative and storage purposes. The contract purchaser of the building, Bernadette Stark, has indicated that she intends to continue the pre-existing commercial use, with no changes to the current use as a commercial office space. Please issue a determination confirming the pre-existing use at your earliest convenience. Should you have any questions regarding this matter,please contact my attorney, Ed Etheredge, at 584-1600. Thank you, i i F Greg Sandler, Managing Director G&S Sandler Acquisitions LLC Etheredge & Steuer, e.c. ATTORNEYS AT LAV 64 GOTHIC STREET NORTH =N, MASSACHUSETTS 01060 EDWARD D.ETHEREO F.

Sandler Acquisitions LLC Dear Mr, Hasbrouck: I represent Greg Sandler and G.S. Acquisitions LLC, owner of the property at 3 Olive Street. Mr. Sandler has accepted an offer from Bernadette Stark to purchase the property for use as office space with no exterior changes to the building.
