RE: Proposed 2019 Required Annual Training Seminars
DATE: March 28, 2019
The ZBA, in consultation with TA Duffy, Chief Building Inspector Verity, and LWRP
Coordinator/Principal Planner Mark, has developed the following proposal for your review and
approval for our required four hours of continuing education and training for 2019. All sessions
will be conducted at no cost and scheduled for ZBA meetings where all Board Members will be
in attendance.
ZBA 2019 Training Proposal
1. 2018-2019 Case Law Update – An overview and summary of legal determinations
rendered by the various courts of New York State involving appeals of decisions made by
Zoning Boards that include special exception permits, use variances, area variances, code
interpretations, and nonconforming uses. Training will be approximately 1 hour,
Presented by Town Attorney Duffy
2. Understanding FEMA Regulations – The Board of Appeals regularly reviews variance
applications for residential structures in flood prone areas that must be built or renovated
to FEMA compliance. In 2018 the Board received some basic training about FEMA
regulations and how to read surveys and elevations relative to specific flood zones. The
Board proposes to continue that training by learning more about issues related to local
sea level rise, the impact that building residential structures on plies could have on the
character of Southold’s neighborhoods, and how to use FEMA digital flood zone overlay
maps to evaluate properties that come before the Board Training will be approximately
1 hour, Presented by Chi ef Building Inspector Michael Verity and LWRP
Coordinator/Principal Planner Mark Terry
3. Issues Related to Farming in the Town of Southold - The purpose of this
seminar is to learn more about the relationships among New York State
Agriculture and Markets Law, the local zoning codes that the ZBA must apply
when evaluating applications on properties that are zoned AC/R80, and the goals
and code changes recommended by the Town of Southold’s Agricultural
Advisory Committee. Training will be approximately 1 hour, Presented by Town
Attorney Duffy
4. Land Use Chapter of the Comprehensive Plan – The Planning Department will
provide the Board of Appeals with an overview of the proposed Land Use Chapter of the
Town’s Comprehensive Plan and its relationship to the current zoning code, and
proposed future zoning changes. Training will be approximately 1 hour, Presented by
Planning Director Heather Lanza and Assistant Planning Director Mark Terry
