APPEAL BOARD MEMBERS Robert W. Gilllspie, .Jr., Chairman Robert Bergen Charles Grigonis, Jr. Serge Doyen, Jr. Fred Hulse, Jr. Southold Town Board o[Appeals SOUTHOLD, L. I., N.Y. 119'71 Telephone 765-9660 M I NU.T'E S Southold Town Board of Appeals July 1, 1976 A regular meeting of the Southold Town Board of Appeals was held at 7:30 P.M. (E.'D.S.T.), ThUrsday, July 1, 1976, at the Town Office, Main Road, Southold, New York. There were present: Messrs: Robert W. Gillispie, Jr., Chairman; Robert Bergen, Charles ~rigonis, Jr.; Fred Hulse, Jr. Also present: Peter Campbell, Suffolk Weekly Times; Sherley Katz, Long Island Traveler-Mattituck Watchman~ 7:30 P.M. (E.D.S.T.),i Appea~No. 2114, J. Parker'Wickham, Airway Drive, Mattituck, New York. THE C~AIRMAN: This is a recessed public hearing. (The Chairman read ~he application for a variance, legal notice of h~aring, affidavits attesting to its publication in the official newspapers, and notice to the applicant~ The.Chairman also read letter of transmittal from the Town Clerk stating that notification by certified mail had been made to adjoining neigh- bors; R. C. Kopf; Mrs. Morton McConnachie; A. Wuttke: F. A. Ross. The Chairman a~so.Roted that a survey had been made by Van Tuyl for Mr. J. Parker Wickham.) We are looking at %h~ minutes Q~ April 8, 1976, in which we informe~ the applicant of the interest of ~he Suffolk ~ounty Planning Commission in this application, and also.the interest of the Planning Board of Southold Town. The Planning Commission, in a letter dated April 22, 1976, has replied with some suggestions which are as follows: Southold Town Board of Appeals -2- July 1, 1976 "Base~ upon available information, it would appear necessary to determine if all property owners to the east thereof have ex- tinquished their right of access via the unopened filed map road which traverses the southerly portion of the subject property. If all rightS have not been ex~ingu±shed, %he area of the parcel should be diminished accordingly. If all rights have been extin- quished, the guaranteed right of access via the traveled road to the north thereof should be assured before the Wickham property is parceled off and apparantely joined with an adjoining lot owner. It further appears inadvisable to permit conveyance of seasonal cottages on such small lots to individual owners, par- ticularly for year round occupancy. This would only establish an undesirable precedent for additional dwellings on undersized lots in the locale." There is another communication dated June 7, 1976: "To conform with the general lot size patterns in the locale, it would appear advisable to divide Parcel "B" as de- picted on the attached map." Starting with that suggestion from the Planning Commission, can you advise us now whether or not this division that you have had approved by our Planning Board in their letter of June 25, which states: "The following action was taken by the Southold Town Planning Board at a regular meeting held June 21, 1976. RESOLVED that the lot lines as shown in red on map dated May 21, 1976 of property of J. Parker Wickhm at "Marratooka Point" be approved. The applicant should make an effort to extinguish the old right-of-way and establish the one presently being used." Can you advise us now on these points that have been brought up in this letter? ROBE~RT TOOKER, ESQ.: We have, since, we met with you last, appeared before the Planning Board. We discussed the division of ~he property and they had two basic requests~ the first of which was that we add additional area to the plot from the northerly side of the traveled road to the creek. We worked out a line during our meeting with the Planning Board which they felt was a satisfactory division between the two bungalows. They also suggested that we use all reasonable efforts to extinquish the right-of-way on the filed map and to create one in Southold Town Board of Appeals -3- July 1, 1976 favor of all the property owners on r,the point down to the existing traveled roadway. THE CHAI~4AN: Have you done that? Has it been resolved? ROBERT TOOKER, ESQ.: We resolved i~ to the satisfaction of the Planning Board. We kave not gone 'to,the owners because we felt we first had to come back to you to ~ake sure that the Planning Board's recommendation is also the reco~endation of the Board of Appeals. We don't foresee any difficulty with these people be- cause they all use the traveled roadway. THE CHAIRMAN: ~ow would they get i~ and out if they didn't agree? ROBERT TOOKER, ESQ.: We don't foresee any reason why they ~ouldn't be delighted to have the traveled road for their use. THE CHAIRMAN: I'm a little confused ... its been so long since you first came to us. What was your Original desire here and how is it modified? ROBERT TOOKER, ESQ.: When we first came here we brought a sketch of this parcel here (indicating oN map) and we requested that it be set off. THE CHAIRMAN: Who owns that now? ROBERT TOOKER, ESQ.: Mr. Wickham. THE CHAIRMAN: And who owns this (referring to map~? ROB~RT TOOKER, ESQ.: Mr. Wickham ow~s that also. (The Board, Mr. Tooker and Mr. Wick~am looked at. the map- and there was further discussionnno~ the property.) ]SQ.: You said the other time tha~ you had diff relationship of thils parce~ tO all ~he Other theEe and suggeSted that We have ~ ~survey made. W~ prop ~ did that, and when we came back you had a r~commendation from the' Suffol~ County pi~nning commission that a linebe dra~n here d,i~iding the property. Tkat creates a practical problem because ~e faces ~his way (referring to map). When we talked to the P Board about it~ w~ found they would be willing to recommend that line there (referring to map) which would give this lot more area and less area to this lot and would give some access to the creek, which the man acquiring this property doesn't want, but it is a move we are willing to make if that is the pleasure of the Town. Southold Town Board of Appeals -4- July 1, 1976 THE CHAIRMAN: What about the question of seasonal occupancy which was brought up by the Planning Board? Are they all sea- sonal? ROBERT TOOKER, ESQ.: Yes. I don't think they could be any- thing else. THE CHAIRMAN: You would have no objection then to our in- cluding a condition that they remain seasonal. We can't act on the whole thing, but we can act on these two parcels. ROBERT TOOKER, ESQ.: If it was done so that we could occupy ~hem without coming back to the Town for the approval of the Town Board. THE CHAIRMAN: What is the normal occupancy of the bungalows? J. PARKER WICKHAM: Three months. I shut the water and the electricity off in ~ll~ of them. THE CHAIRMAN: So if we made the condition from April 1 to November 1 that would certainly fit your normal schedule, giving you plenty of leeway on both sides. J. PARKER WICKHAM: I don~ know whether they would want to do that in the event somebody ~lse did want to come down People are doing more with houses out here now, they own second homes here. ROBERT BERGEN: The land out there really doesn't lend itself to conversion to permanant houses. THE CHAIRMAN: In the history of the Town, there are many cases of people converting summer homes into year-round houses and re- tiring here, and then they want a garage in the front yard, etc. ROBERT TOOKER, ESQ.: I think for any of them to be utilized for year-round purposes, they would have to come back to the~nilding Inspector. There would be a question of the foundations ... J. PARKER WICKHAM: These houses are all on posts now. ROBERT TOOKER, ESQ.: I think that the ToWn would be well protected at that point. THE CHAIRMAN: Do you have an estimate of the acreage of these parcels? ROBERT TOOKER, ESQ.: I called Mr. Van Tuyl today and with the division line between these two bungalows (indicating on map) this one has 13,800 sq. ft. and this one has 12, 70'0 sq. ft. Southold Town Board of Appeals -5- July 1, 1976 At the Planning Board we also discussed the ownership of this parcel. The ownership should be kept seperate so there won't be any problem of a merger between the two. It is not the in- tention of Mr. Wickham or Mr. Ross to utilize this property as one unit. His idea is to create a home for the next generation. THE CHAIRMAN: It would be kept in seperate ownership? ROBERT BERGEN: (indicating on map) For instance, one is in his name and the other is in his wife's name. ROBERT TOOKER, ESQ.: We also gave assurance to the Planning Board that we would contact all these people and eliminate the right-of-way. THE CHAIRMAN: I don't think it is neoessary for us to try to eStablish where the current road goes. We would cover that in a condition pertaining to the right-of-way. These people will have to have right-of-way. I think that covers it all. Are there any other questions? (There was no response.) After investigation and inspection the Board finds that the applicant requests permission to set off a lot with an existing dwelling, located on Bungalow Lane in Mattituck, N. Y. The findings of the Board are that the application has been reviewed by the Planning Board of Southold Town and the Suffolk County Planning Commission and looked upon with favor by both. The Board finds that strict application of the Ordinance would produce practical difficulties or unnecessary hardship; the hard- ship created is unique and would not be shared by all properties alike in the immediate vicinity of this property and in the same use district; and the variance will not change the character of the neighborhood, and will observe the spirit of the O~dinance. On motion by Mr. Gillispie, seconded by Mr. Bergen, it was RESOLVED that J. Parker Wickham, Airway Drive, Mattituck, N. Y., be GRANTED permission to set off a lot with an existing dwelling on Bungalow Lane, Marratooka Point, Mattituck, subject to the following conditions: The applicant will furnish a right-of-way over the lot to be created to all properties to the east of the new lot. Southold Town Board of Appeals -6- July 1, 1976 e The title of this new lot will not be merged with the title of any adjoining lot. Permission for residential use of this lot shall be seasonal from April 1 to November 1. The applicant will make every effort to extinguish any old rights-of-way. Vote of the Board: Ayes: - Messrs: Gillispie, Bergen, Hulse, Grigonis. On motion.by Mr. Gillispie, seconded by Mr. Hulse, it was RESOLVED that the Southold Town Board of Appeals approve minutes dated June 10, 1976, subject to minor correction. Vote of the Board: Ayes: Messrs: Gillispie, Bergen, Hulse, Grigonis. PUBLIC HEARING: Appeal No. 2148 - 8:00 P.M. (E.D.S.T.) upon application of John and Erma Gabusi for a variance in accordance with the Zoning Ordinance, Article III, Section 100-32 for permission to construct accessory building in front y~d area. Location of property: south side Peconic BayBoulevard, Laurel, New York bounded on the north by Peconic Bay Boulevard; east by M. Roache; south by Peconic Bay; west' by S. Spinosa. Fee paid - $15.00.

The Chairman also read statement from the Town Clerk that notification b~ycertified mail had been made to: Salvator and Conchetta Spinosa; Margaret Roache. THE CHAIRMAN: JOHN GABUSI: THE CHAIRMAN: JOHN GABUSI: This was the old dwelling? (referring to map.) Yes, that was the old dwelling. That was two feet from one side yard? Yes. · THE CHAIRMAN: This is an irregularly shaped, pie shaped, lot, 334' on the west, 291' on the east, 75' on Peconic Bay Boulevard, Southold Town Board of Appeals -7- July 1, 1976 and 171' on Peconic Bay. The proposal is to place a garage 10' from the western side yard, 87' from Peconic Bay Boulevard, and 62' from the easterly side yard. Is there anyone present who wishes to speak for this application? JOHN GABUSI: The only other thing I might add is that there was a garage in the front yard previously. THE CHAIRMAN: Does anyone else wish to speak for the appli- cation? (There was no response.) Is there anyone present who wishes to speak against this application? (There was no response.) After investigation and inspection the Board finds that the applicant requests permission to construct an accessory building in front .yard area on the south side of Peeonic Bay Boulevard, Laurel, New York. The Board finds that the applicant is replacing an old dwelling which was two feet from the westerly side yard with a new dwelling which is property distant from the side yard. The Board finds that strict application of the Ordinance ~Duld produce practical difficulties or unnecessary hardship; the hardship created is unique and would not be shared by all properties alike in the immediate vicinity of this property and in the same use district; and the variance will not change the character of the neighborhood, and will observe the spirit of the Ordinance. On motion by Mr. Bergen, seconded by Mr. Hulse, it was RESOLVED, John and Erma Gabusi, 58 Glenmore Avenue, Brentwood, New York be GRANTED permission to construct an accessory building in front yard area, south side Peconic Bay Boulevard, Laurel, New York, as applied for subject to the following condition: The proposed building shall be no closer than 10' from the westerly side yard, no closer than 87' from Peaonic Bay Boulevard, and no closer than 62' from the easterly side yard. Vote of the Board: Ayes: - Messrs: Gillispie, Bergen, Hulse, Grigonis. Southold Town Board of Appeals July 1, 1976 PUBLIC HEARING: Appeal No. 2149 8:10 P.M. (E.D.S.T.) upon application of Frank Wills, Red Fox Road, Box 371, Mattituck, New York for a variance in accordance with the Zoning Ordinance, Article III, Section 100-30 C & 100-32 for permission to construct accessory building in front yard area. Location of property: north side Ruth Road, Mattituck, New York, bounded on the north by L. I. Sound; east by Captain'Kidd Subdivision; south by B. Vreeland; west by B. Vreeland. Fee paid $15.00 The Chairman opened the hearing by reading the application for a variance, legal notice of hearing, affidavits attesting to its publication in the official newspapers, and notice to the applicant. The Chairman also read letter from the Town Clerk stating that notification by certified mail has been made to: Mr. and Mrs. Barrie Vreeland; Dr. Joseph Carlton. ~iE CHIARMAN: Is there anyone present who wishes to speak for this application? FRANK WILLS: I would just like to say that if we located the barn anywhere but in the front yard it would, in effect, put it on the beach. THE CHAIRMAN: That's a long step! How close is your house to the bluff? FRANK WILLS: About 25' THE CHAIRMAN: What happened to the adjoining house in the winter winds we had? FRANK WILLS: It blew away. THE CHAIRMAN: Did it have a foundation? FRAN~ WILLS: No, it didn't, it was on stilts. THE CHAIRMAN: What about your present house, d© you have a full cellar in that? FRANK WILLS: No, we only have a crawl space, not a full cellar. THE CHAIRMAN: Is the house built on a slab? FRANK WILLS: No, but it is far enough back so that the wind doesn't touch the house. THE CHAIRMAN: I guess the north wind would blow over your house then. My house is in a similar kind of location and I know all about %he wind conditions. Southold Town Board of Appeals -9- July 1, 1976 Does anyone else wish to speak for this application? (There was no response.) There are three acres in this lot. Have you lived here long? Is there a private right-of-way? FRANK WILLS: Yes, there is. We ~elocated several years ago~ to this vicinity. THE CHAIRMAN: Does anyone else wish to speak for the appli- cation? (There was no response.) Does anyone wish to speak against this application? (There was no response.) I have a letter here from Joseph Carlton, Brooklyn, which reads as follows: June 7, 1976 Board of Appeals, Town of Southold Dear Sirs: I am writing this letter to protest the application by Mr. Frank Wills for a variance to erect a barn on his property at Red Pox Road in Mattituck, New York. 1. He does not state the purpose for which the barn will be erected. A barn is usually erected to house live stock of one sort or another. There is in this area no other barns or live stock being kept. His property abutts Captain Kidd Estates, which is an area of single family residential homes. Erecting a barn to keep live stock if this is the case ~11 constitute a public nuisance and effect the property values of his adjacent neighbors. The waste products of such live stock will create odiferous conditions and attract innumeral flies, mosquetoes and verne to the area. Southold Town Board of Appeals -10- July 1, 1976 0 I see no reasonable method by which he can have this waste product removed which will constitute a pollution threat to the underground water plateau in the area and the surrounding environment. The above problems should constitute enough valid reasons to deny this application. Sincerely, /s/ Dr. Joseph Carlton THE CHAIRMAN: Which side of your property is he on? FRANK WILLS: On the easterly side. THE CHAIRMAN: HOW wide is your lot at the narrowest point? FRANK WILLS: 108' where the barn will go, and 70' to 75' at the very narrowest. THE CHAIRMAN: Is there anyone else who wishes to speak for this application? (There was no response.) If not, what is your answer to the points in the letter? FRANK WILLS: I have no intention of housing livestock. The reason for the barn is to store things in, such as my lawnmower, garden tools, etc. THE CHAIRMAN: It is an accessory building only then? FRANK WILLS: Yes. THE CHAIRMAN: You do have the right to have livestock in that area, but it has to be 40' or 50' from the neighbors line. I don't think there should be any condition about that, however, pertaining to this accessory building. Are there any Q%her questions about the application? (There was no response.) After investigation and inspection the Board finds that~t~he applicant requests permission to construct accessory building in front yard area on property located on the north side of Ruth Road, Mattituck. The findings of the Board are that the applicant's location in relation to the bluff prohibits the ereCtion of the barn in the back yard area. South~d Town Board of Appeals ~ -11- July 1, 1976 The Board finds that strict application of the Ordinance would produce practical difficulties or unnecessary hardship; the hardship created is unique and would not be shared by all properties alike in the immediate vicinity of this property and in the same use district; and the variance will not change the character of the neighborhood, and ~±11 observe the spirit of the Ordinance. On motion by Mr. Hulse, seconded by Mr. Grigonis, it was RESOLVED, Erank Wills, Red Fox Road, Box 371, Mattituck, New York be GRANTED permission to construct accessory building in front yard area of property located on Ruth Road, Mattituck, New York, as applied for. Vote of the Board: Ayes: - Messrs: Gillispi~, Bergen, Hulse, Grigonis. PUBLIC HEARING: Appeal No. 2150 - 8:20 P.M. (E.D.S.T.) upon application of John and Irma Hutter, 56600'Main Road, Southold, New York, (Edward John Boyd~V, Attorney) for a variance in accordance with the Zoning Ordinance, Article III, Section 100-30 and Article II, Section 100-20 D (1) for permission to use existing building for business. Location of property: south side Main Road and east side Town Harbor Lane, Southold, bounded on north by Main Road; east by Town Harbor Lane; south by N. Mattessich; west by D. Zito and Ors, F. Lennert, Q. C. Hurdle. The Chairman opened the hearing by reading the application for a variance, legal notice of hearing, affidavits attesting to its publication in the official newspapers, and notice to the appli- cant. The Chairman also read letter from the Town Clerk indicating that notificat~ion by certified mail had been made to: Mr. and Mrs. Nicoto Mattessich; Q. C. Hurdle; Mr. and Mrs. Dominic Zito; Mr. and Mrs. R. Schelin. THE CHAIRMAN: A survey from Van Tuyl, dated May 13, 1971, indicates that the 200' from the Main Road approved as the "B" zone falls just north of the location of this barn, and the 30' extension provided for in the Ordinance includes 4/5 of the building in the allowable business-use.zone. The present building is set back low from the Main Road with 250' of frontage on Town Harbor Lane and 162' on the Main Road. The property consists of 1.2 acres, which is considerably larger than any other lot in the area. Is ~here anyone present who wishes to speak for this application? Southold Town Board of Appeals -12- July 1, 1976 EDWARD J. BOYD: I would urge that the Board approve the application so that the Hutters could use the existing building without tke expense of constructing someth±ng new for the purpose of operating a gift shop. THE CHAIRMAN: Is this a temporary thing or do they plan to have a permanent shop in the building? EDWARD J. BOYD: They are going to use this building for a gift shop now and in the immediate future. What happens after that, I don't know. Their plans for the future are indefinite. THE CHAIRMAN: Does anyone else wish to speak for the applicant~ IRMA HUTTER: At the present time, I have a gift shop in Greenport, but I would like to move to Southold. The shop is my source of income. THE CHAIRMAN: Yes, we were told that. JOHN HUTTER: We had a restaurant for 10 years, so we know about running a business. THE CHAIRMAN: The location here (referring to map) is a good one for a restaurant - it has lots of parking. Does anyone else wish to speak for this application? ~ (There was no response.) Anyone wish to speak against the application? Any questions from the Board? (There was no response.) After investigation and inspection the Board finds that applicant requests to use an existinq building for business, south side Main Road and east side Town Harbor Lane, Southold. The findings of the Board are that the Board agrees with the reasoning of the applicant and the application needs no further elaboration by the Board. The Board finds that strict application of the Ordinance would produce practical difficulties or unn'ecessary hardship; the hard- ship created is unique and would not be shared by all properties alike in the immediate vicinity of this property and in the same use district; and the variance will not change the character of the neighborhood, and will observe the spirit of the Ordinance. Southold Town Board of Appeals July 1, 1976 On motion by Mr. Gillisp~e, seconded by Mr. Hulse, it was RESOLVED, John and Irma Hurter, 56600 Main Road, Southold, New York, be GRANTED permission to use an existing building for business on property located on the south side Main Road and east side Town Harbor Lane, Southold, New York, as applied for. Vote of the Board: Ayes: - Messrs. Gillispie, Bergen, Hulse, Grigonis. PUBLIC HEARING: Appeal No. 2151 - 8:3D P.M. (E.D.S.T.) upon application of Russell B. Case, President, Cedars Golf Club, Case's Lane, Cutchogue, New York for a special exception in ac- cordance with the Zoning Ordinance, for permission to relocate directional sign for Cedars Golf Club, Article III, Section 100-3D C 6f. Location of property: Case's Lane, Cutchogue, New York, bounded on the north by Middle Road (CR27); east by W. H. Wickham Est.; south by Long Island Railroad; west by E. Tuthill and P. Kurowski. Mr. Robert Bergen excused himself from this hearing. The Chairman opened the meeting by reading the application for a special exception, legal notice of hearing, affidavits attesting to its' publication in the official.newspapers, and notice ~o the applicant. The Chairman aIso read letter from the Town Clerk ~tte~t~g to notification by certified mail to William Wickham. THE CHAIRMAN: I have here a letter from William Wickham, which is as follows: June 23, 1976 Town of Southold Board of Appeals Main Road Southold, N. Y. 11971 Gentlemen: This letter is written in response to the notice I received for a golf course directional sign on M~ddle Road, Cutchogue. Three or four years ago, I gave the Chamber of Commerce permission to erect a sign on the farm, as a community contribution. The sign ~s still there and unobjectionable. I understand this application is for the sign to be placed near my west boundard line. This happens to be quite a scenic area. The view to the east with the woodland and the single red Southotd Town Board of Appeals -~14~. July 1, 1976 barn has besn painted and photographed many times. Some of the photographs have 'been printed in the local newspauers. It is particularly attractive ~in the fall ~f the year with the changing colors. !,~herefore, t~ink ~t would be quite inappropriate to have a commercial sign ~n tkat area, unless it is at least 250 feet west of my, line. Very Cordially yours, /s/ William Wickham THE CHAIRMAN: The proposed location of this sign is in the northeast of a 10.4 acre farm lot as shown on the tax map. Does anyone wish to speak for this application? First, where is Wickham's line here? ROBERT BERGEN: It's this one here. (Mr. Bergen showed them where the property is located on the map.) THE CHAIRMAN: 1 see. Does anyone wish to speak against this application? (There was no response.) If not, then I would suggest granting this application subject to the condition that the sign be located no closer than 10' from any property line. ROBERT BERGEN: I would suggest 35' or 40'. That way it would block no one going in or out. THE CHAIRMAN: How about no closer than 30' to the North Road, 40' from any property line, and 250' from the property of William Wickham. Does anyone else have any questions? (There was no response.) After investigation and inspection the Board finds that the applicant requests permission to relocate directional sign on the south side of CR27, Cutchogue, New York. The findings of the Board are that the Board is in agreement with the reasoning of the applicant. The Board finds that the public convenience and welfare and justice will be served and the legally established or permitted use of neighborhood property and ~adjoining use districts will not be permanently or substant±ally.injured and the spirit of the Ordinance will be observed. Southold Town Board of Appeals -15- July 1, 1976 On motion by Mr. Gillispie, seconded by Mr. Grigonis, it was RESOLVED, Russell B. Case, President, Cedars GOlf ~lub, Case's Lane, Cutcho~ue, New York be GRANTED permission to relocate di- rectional sign to the south side of CR27, Cutchogue, as applied for subject to, the following condition: The sign can be no closer than 30' to the North Road, 40' from any property line, and 250' from the property of William Wickham. Vote of the Board: Ayes: - Messrs: Gillispie, Hulse, Grigonis. PUBLIC HEARING: Appeal No. 2152 - 8:35 P.M. (E.D.S.T.) upon application of Betty L. FitzPatrick, 263 Cushing Avenue, Williston Park, New York (Edward John BoYd V, Attorney), for a variance in accordance with the Zoning Ordinance, ~rticle III, Section 100-30 & Bulk Schedule for permission to adjust boundary line through the exchange of like-sized parcels wi~h insufficient width and area before and after exchange. Location of property: East side South Harbor Road, Southold, New York, bounded on the north by right-of-way; east by Nelson; south by N. McCook; west by South Harbor Road. The Chairman opened the hearing by reading the application for a variance, legal notice of hearing, affidavits attesting to its publication in the official newspapers, and notice to the applicant. The Chairman also read letter from the Town Clerk stating that notification by certified mail was made to: Mr. and Mrs. Carl Nelson; Mr. and Mrs. Norman F. McCook. T~ CHAIRMAN: This application is accompanied by a survey dated A~rii 30, 1974, by Van Tuyl, indicating that the Peabody lot is certainly of unusual shape and the adjoining lot is triangular with the point of the triangle intercePting the front yard area of the Peabody lot as it fronts on S~h Harbor Road. It's hard to imagine who laid out these lots at right-angle triangles, irregUlar parallelograms, trapeqoids - I forget the rest of my geometry. Who owned this property originally, I mean the whole area? EDWARD J. BOYD: I don't know. THE CHAIRMAN: It's an imaginative layout. Is there anyone present who wishes to speak for this application? EDWARD J. BOYD: I think the application f&i~ly well speaks for itself. All we are trying to do here is exchange two Southold Town Board of Appeals -16- July 1, 1976 similarly sized pieces of property and by doing so make my client and Mrs. Peabody much more at home with the piece of property, and to aid the Jones, the neighbors to the south, by giving them, first off, more privacy in the rear yard and re- lieve them of the burden of maintaining this piece of land which sticks off the the north of thefr property and doesn't even ap- pear to be part of their property. THE CHAIRMAN: This has all been arranged, you have every- thing packed up here apparently. The only question that occured to us, and I suppose this was adjusted, in other words, this family could have been further over here (referring to map). EDWARD J. BOYD: The~ were two seperate plans for this. Initially there was one that was more unworkable than the plan you have before you. That was proposed by Mr. Peabody and Mr. Warnaka some four or five years ago. That adjustment fell through. The map you have before you was prepared in 1974 as a result of considerable discussion. THE CHAIRMAN: It was pretty well negotiated, then. EDWARD J. BOYD: Yes, it was very well negotiated from several different a~gles and this is the most workable plan according to the parties that are involved. I would like to say that both of them are happy with this division of the land. THE CHAIRMAN: Is there anyone else present who wishes to speak for this application~ (There was no response.) Do~s anyone wish to speak against this application? (There was no response.) After investigation and inspection the Board finds that the applicant requests permission to adjust boundary?lines through the exchange of like-sized parcels with insufficient width and area before and after exchange on the east side of South Harbor Road, Southold, New York. The findings of the Board are that the lots are irregularly shaped and this exchange will improve the character of the area. The Board finds that strict application of the Ordinance would produce practical difficulties or unnecessary hardship; the hardship created is unique and would not be shared by all properties alike in the immediate vicinity of this property and in the same use district; and the variance will not change the character of the neighborhood, and will observe the spirit of the Ordinance. Southold Town Board of Appeals -17- July 1, 1976 On motion by Mr. Grigonis, seconded by Mr. Bergen, it was RESOLVED, Betty L. Fitzpatrick, 263 Cushing Avenue, Williston Park, New york ~e GRANTED perm±ssion to adjust boundary line through the exchange ~f l~ke~sized parcels with insufficient width and area before and after exchange on east side South Harbor Road, Southold, New York, as applied for. Vote of the Board: Ayes: - Messrs: Gillispie, Bergen, Hulse, Grigonis. PUBLIC HEARING: Appeal NOB 2153 -- 8:45 P.M.

Location of property: East of Grathwohl Road, New Suffolk, New York, bounded on the north by J. Fisher; east by Gleason; south by Kouros Road; west by Grathwohl Road. (This description refers to Parcels A & B). The Chairman opened the hearing by reading the application for a variance, legal notice of hearing, affidavits attesting go its publication in the official newspapers, and notice to the applicant. The Chairman also read letter from the Town Clerk stating that notification by certified mail was made to: Mr. Frank Hajek; Mr. Edward Quinteri; Ms. Elizabeth Campbell. THE CHAIRMAN: The application isa¢companied by a survey dated March 22, 1976, by Van Tuyl, indicating that the lot in question which is requested for division is 280' on Kouros Road, 185' on Grathwohl Road. The proposal is to cut it in half. It would give each lot an area of 25,000 feet. The adjoining lot to the east is 95', the next lot has 190' width, the next two are each 95' width2 North of this is a 1.6 acr~ parcel and two adjoining lots to the east, 20,000 sq. ft. Across the street are a number of smaller lots of 95' and one larger lot of 5.3 acres. Is there anyone p~'~ who wishes to speak for'this appli- cation? RUDOLPH BRUER: I would like to point out to the Board that, with respect to Lot A as set forth here, You would have road frontage on Grathwohl Road of 185' That lot does have the required road frontage. I think the application pretty much speaks for i~self. I would like to point out to the Board that Southold Town Board of Appeals -18- July 1, 1976 there should be a letter somewhere in your file from the Town Planning Board recommending thi's. Also there should be some- thing referring to the application, coming up after this one. is exactly the same except it's a different lot a few hundred feet away. It THE CHAIRMAN: I talked to John Wickham, and that's correct, they recommended that this be granted. How does this relate to the Planning Board - i~ it a minor subdivision? RUDOLPH BRUER: Yes. (Mr. Bruer and the Board referred to the map and there was further discussion about the property.) THE CHAIRMAN: I would like to point out that those four lots would provide considerable excess acreage. When you con- sider all six of these lots - this is not in the minor subdivision, right? RUDOLPH BRUER: This is seperate and should be considered as such. THE CHAIRMAN: $o the applicant really will not gain very much density. RUDOLPH BRUER: As a practical matter~ both this application and the one following it, the applicant gets two extra lots, and he also gets the availability of a minor subdivision rather than going to a major. It doesn't add, really, to the density one way or the other; matter of fact, I think it subtracts from one. THE CHAIRMAN: Does anyone else Wish to speak for this appli- cation? (There was no response.) Does anyone wish to speak against it? (There was no response.) I might add that the Planning Board does recommend that this application be granted. After investigation and inspection the Board finds that the applicant requests permission to set off small lots with in- sufficient width and area, east of Grathwohi Road, New Suffolk, New York. The findings of the Board are that the applicant, in their opinion, is entitled to a reduction of the acreage and also that the applicant will not increase the density. Southold Town Board of Appeals -19- July 1, 1976 The Board finds that strict application of the Ordinance would produce practical difficulties or unnecessary hardship; the hardship created is unique and would not 5e shared by all properties alike in the immediate vicin±ty of this property and in the same use district; and the variance w±lt not change the character of the nelgbJoorhood, and will observe the spirit of the Ordinance. On motion by Mr. Gillispie, seconded by Mr. Bergen, it was RESOLVED, Olympia Kouros, Main Road, Mattituck, New York, be GRANTED permission to set off small lots with insufficient width and area~ east of Grathwohl Road, New Suffolk, New York, as applied for, subject to the approval of the Suffolk County Planning Commission. Vote of the Board: Ayes:- Messrs: Gillispie, Bergen, Hulse, Grigonis. ~ PUBLIC HEARING: Appeal No. 2154 - 8:55 P.M.

THE CHAIRMAN: This application is accompanied by a survey by ~a~ Tuyl dated March 22, 1976, indicating that seperate lots are to be craated, each 25,00~ sq. ft.. The proposal will create two lots ~fronting on Bunny Lane. One will have a depth of approxi- mately 190' with 135' of frontage, and the other on the corner of Bunny Lane and Kouros Road will have 14~' on Bunny Lane and 190' on Kouros Road. Is there anyone p~esent who wishes to speak for this appli- cation? Southold Town Board of Appeals -20- July 1, 1976 RUDOLPH BRUER: I thi~nk the best thing I can say is to repeat everything I said about the previous application. It,s exactly the same situation. The properties are a very shork distance from each other, and the reasoning is exactly the same as was set forth 5efore. (Mr~ Bruer then referred to the map and discussed the property with the Board.) THE CHAIRMAN: Across the street there are properties that are ~all smaller than the one you are creating. RUDOLPH BRUER: That's correct. THE CHAIRMAN: Does anyone else wisk to speak for this application? (There was no response.) I might add that the Planning Board also recommends that this application be granted. Anyone present wish to speak against this application? (There was no response.) After investigation and inspection the Board finds that the applicant requests permission to set off small lots with in- sufficient width and area, south of Kouros Road, New Suffolk, New York. The findings of the Board are that the applicant, in their opinion, is entitled to a reduction of the acreage and also that the applicant will not increase the density. The-Board finds that strict application of the Ordinance would produce practical difficulties or unnecessary hardship; the hardship created is unique and would not be shared by all properties alike in the immediate vicinity of.this prop~y~ and in the same use district; and the variance will no% ~qe the character of the neighborhood, and will observe the spirit of the Ordinance. On motion by Mr. Bergen, seconded by Mr. Hulse, it was RESOLVED, Olympia Kouros, Main Road, Mattituck, New. York, be GRANTED permission to set off small lots with insdfficient width and area, south of Kouros Road, New Suffolk, New York, as applied for, subject to the approval of the Suffolk County Planning Commission.

Location of property: Right-of-way East side Camp Mineola Road, Mat~ituck, New York, bounded on the north by now or formerly R. Tuthfll; east by now or formerly H. Peters; south by riqht-of-way; west by now' or formerly P. Groben. The Chairman opened the hearing by reading the application for a variance, legal notice of hearing, affidavits attesting to its publication in the official newspapers, and notice to the applicant. The Chairman also read statement from the Town Clerk that notification by certified mail had been made to: Mr. Frank Murphy~ Mr. Laurence Reeve; Mr. Joseph Peters; Mr. Frederick Pivko. THE CHAIRMAN: The application is accompanied by a survey made by Robert Kart of Riverhead showing the proposed roadway 55' wide and two lots across the street, each over 41,000 feet. On either side of the proposed lots - the Peter Groben lot is 37,000 sq. ft. and~ the Peters' lot is 28,500 sq. ft. Is there anyone present who wishes to speak for this application? WILLIAM WICKHAM': We are intending to apply to the Planning Board for a minor subdivision. (~r. Wickham and the Board then referred to the map and discussed the layout of the property.) THE CHAIRMAN: Have you been to the Planning Board yet? WILLIAM WICKHAM: No, we wanted to get the variance first. I was going to ask, .~r. Gillispie ... the size of the roadway bothers me a little because it is quite Wide, and I wondered if these people would mind if we cut it down. THE CHAIRMAn,: I think that you should bring that up before the Planning Board when you go there. We probably should recess this until they've acted. WILLIAM WtCKHAM: I spoke to Mr. W±ckham about it, and he suggested that we apply to you first for a variance. Southold Town Board of Appeals -22- July 1, 1976 THE CHAIRMAN: I think the Board probably agrees with this layout. ROBERT BERGEN: Ho~.~ould you change the ~idth~of that road? WILLIAM WICKHAM: Well, that presents a little bit of a problem. If we could increase the size of the lots on the north, that would be fine. THE CHAIRMAN: I think that probably this should go to the Planning Board first. This is the subdivision, correct? WILLIAM WICKHAM: (referring to map) Yes, the four lots. THE CHAIRMAN: Then the proposed 55' road is excessive and unnecessary. As long as we're holding this hearing, does any- one else wish to speak for this application? ~here was no response.) Does anyone wish to speak against this application? (There was no response.) I might say that the Board looks ~avorably on this appli- cation, but the Planning Board might have some suggestions. On motion by Mr. Hulse, seconded by Mr. Grigonis, it was RESOLVED that decision on Appeal No. 2155, Appolonia Kirchgessner, Camp Mineola Road, Mattituck, New York be post- poned and that this hearing be recessed until a decision is reached by the Planning Board.

Location of property: Lakeview Terrace, East Marion, New York, bounded on the north by McDonald; east by Marion Lake; south by Sal~inen; west by Right-of-way. The Chairman opened the hearing by reading the application for a variance, legal notice of hearing, affidavits attesting to its publication in the official newspapers, and notice to the applicant. The Chairman also read letter from the Town Clerk Southold Town Board of Appeals -23- July 1, 1976 stating that notification by certified mail has been made to: Mr. and Mrs. James McDonald; Mr. and Mrs. Edwin Salminen. THE CHAIRMAN: The proposed location of this storage shed would be 2' from tbs line to the south, and 2' from Lakeview Terrace, which is a private right~of-way to the west. The applicants property is 200' in depth and 75' in width, with 74' on the private r~ght-of-way. The adjoining property, Salminen, is 50' wide and 250' in depth, also on Marion Lake. The property on the other s±de is 120' on one side, 175' on the north and 100' width. Is there anyone present who wishes to speak for this application? WALTER GAIPA: I would like to use this storage shed to store my equipment, I'm a landscape gardner, and also to keep my supplies in, such as fertilizer and limestone. Now they have to be left outdoors. Also I have equipment such as my tractor which has to be left outdoors. ROBERT BERGEN: How big a door will you have going off the highway? or rather, the private right-of-way? WALTER GAIPA: Well, the door itself won't face the road, it will face the north, onto my own property. ROBERT BERGEN: So there won't be any door going toward the highway? WALTER GAIPA: No (Mr. Gaipa and the Board then referred to the map and discussed the location of the shed.) THE CHAIRMAN: We have no objection to going back a little bit further than five feet.

(There was no response.) After investigation and inspection the Board finds that the applicant requests permission to construct accessory building in front yard area, Lakeview Terrace, East Marion, New York. The findings o~ the Board are,that the Board is in agreement with the reasoning of the appllcant. The accessory building will not be any closer to the provate right-of-way than the adjoining accessory building on the Salminen property and cannot be placed further to the east because it would involve the destruction of a large tree. The Board finds that strict application of the Ordinance Would produce practical difficulties or unnecessary hardship; the hardship crea~ed is unique and would not be shared by all properties alike in the immediate vicinity of this property and !n the same use district; and the variance will not change the character o~ the neighborhood, and will observe the spirit of the Ordinance.
