Carroza, Secretary Under Article VIII, Section C, the Board is required to grant or deny a special exception, giving particular attention to Section (a) 1-12, and to the end of Section C. Findings of the Board are as follows: in reference to Article VIII, Section C, (1) (a) (1) 1. In the Board' s opinion the use of this property by the applicant will effect the orderly and reasonable use of adjacent property in the residential area. Under subsection (3) the proposed use will effect the order of the Town of Southold, and the Board is opposed to a further extension of a use which will permit more than one family to occupy premises. The fact that the applicant has converted a dwelling, without permission, from a one family residence to a two family residence as pointed out by the Building Inspector during testimony, is a self-imposed hardship, and not a point to be consider- ed by this Board. Under subsection (4) the proposed use will not in the Board' s opinion promote the general purpose of the Ordinance; specifically it will tend to increase and enlarge the adjacent Blue Dolphin Inn facilities, owned also by the applicant, and used as a transient multiple residence. A use which is objected to by local residents presently because of noise and overcrowding. Under Article VIII, Section C, Subsection (b) (1) , it seems to the Board that the character of the proposed use may be suggested by the conduct of the applicant' s business to the west, zoned "M" Multiple Residence District, as noted above. This would affect future adjacent legal uses. Under subsection (2) , conservation of property values in the area would be adversely affected by this. Testimony at the public hearing indicated excessive noise extending to late hours of the night and over- crowding on owners premises at the Blue Dolphin Inn. Under subsection (10) from personal observation of members of the Board, and from testimony of neighbors, indications are: There are sometimes as many as 40 to 50 people on the owners premises at the Blue Dolphin Inn, representing in the Board' s opinion an overcrowding of land. Overcrowding can be an undesirable develop- ment either on a permanent or transient basis. An estimated 35 residents of East Marion appeared in person to object to the granting of this application, and Kenneth Slocum, Esq. , attorney for some of the residents of East Marion, presented a petition registering a firm protest and opposition to the application with 90 signatures of residents of East Marion. The East Marion residents object from personal experience and first hand observation based on knowledge acquired in observing the conduct of the business of the Blue Dolphin Inn, over the past five years. The Board finds that the public convenience and welfare and justice will not be served and the legally established or per- mitted use of neighborhood property and adjoining use districts will be permanently or substantially injured and the spirit of the Ordinance will not be observed. Therefore, it was RESOLVED that Stanley S. Corwin, Esq. , 443 Main Street, Greenport, New York, a/c Athanasios and Helen Spinthour- akis, Main Road, East Marion, New York, be denied permission to convert a building into a two family dwelling, on property located south west corner Main Road and Orchard Lane, East Marion, New York.

The building as to which the special exception is sought is located on the south side of the Main Road at East Marion, N. Y., on the southwest corner or,he intersection of Route 25 and Orchard Lane. The building is over 50 years old and at the time the zoning ordinance was enacted was in single and separate ownership as a family dwelling. There is ample space in the dwelling to convert it to a two family dwelling, and ample yard space. A diagram of the premises is attached. The owners acquired the property in January of 1962. At that time the building had been unoccupied for a considerable period and was in a run-down and decrepit condition. The owners refurnished and modernized it, and in the course of so doing added certain facilities which has prompted the Building Inspector to declare it to be a two family dwelling. While the owners disclaim the building in question presently falls within the meaning of Article I, §100, subd. 8, they would like to be in a position legally to arrange in the future for it to be occupied by two families. The premises are described as being bounded on the north by the Main Road, on the east by Orchard Lane, on the south by Spinthourakis, and on lhe west by A. G. Doyle.

Gillespie Dear Sir: Judge Ritchie of the Supreme Court has rendered a decision in the appeal of Spinthourakis of the determination of the Board of Appeals denying a special exception to permit the conversion of a dwelling to a two-family dwelling. Judge Ritchie's decision has annulled the Board's determination and remitted the matter back to the Board of Appeals for the purpose of taking further evidence and making a determination stating the facts and reasons in support thereof. A copy of the Court's decision is enclosed herewith for the examination of the Board. Before the Board of Appeals proceeds further with this matter, I think that it would be appropriate if I met either with you or the Board to discuss the Court's decision and the implications thereof.
