THE CHAIRMAN: Is there anyone present who wishes to speak
for this application?
MR. EUGENE MaZZAFERRO~. Greenport~ New York: I have nothing
further to say# I think the application covers it,
THE C~: I think it is pretty well covered and we are
all familiar with what you said when you were here before.
Is there anyone present who wishes to speak agains this
application? Are there any questions members of the Board might
like to ask?
MP~ BERGEN: If this is granted~ do we have a right to
stipulate that they keep the papers from blowing around?
MR. MAZZAFER~O: The owner of the property has already
stipulated that. We will erect a fence for Lloyd Kalin so the
people will not be running through the area and papers will
not blow around.
MR. ROSENBERG: Did you speak to the police?
MR. MAZZAFERRO: I spoke to Chief Anrig and he said he would
contact Mr. Gillispie stating that the traffic will be taken care
of.
THE CHAIRMAN: Will there be any problem of cleaning up?
MP~ MAZZAFERRO: That is part of our contract,, that we will
clean up and put the land back in shape.
THE CHAIRMAN~ We ar-e not permitted to cause undue burden
on any of the branches of the Town government and the only other
burden we would cause woUld be on the police~ but since it has
been done before you might say that it is in the ordinary course
of events.
Resolution was offered by Mr. Ros.enberg~, seconded by Mr/
Bergen,, and carried~ WHEREAS application of Eugene Mazzaferro,_
a/c Catholic War Veterans Post ~730 having been considered at
Public Hearing No~ 267 on April 7~. 1960~ and the Board finding
Southold Town Board of Appeals
April 7~.~ 1960
that the strict application .of the Ordinance would produceundue
hardship because without approval of the Board applicant would be
unable to conduct this temporary amusement enterprise which has
been conducted for many years on the opposite side of the street.
The situation is unique and would not be shared by all properties
alike in the ~ediate vicinity because this lot is situated next
to the municipal light plant where utilities are available and
.parking will be provided on a municipal lot. The public con-
venience and welfare and justice will be served and the legally
established or permitted use of neigkborhood property and adjacent
use districts v~uld not be substantially or permanently injured
and the spirit of the ordinance would be observed because this
lot is located adjacent to the municipal light plant(, across the
street from the base ball fields~, near a business area and part
of the property is used for a florist shop business~ therefore
be it
RESOL~VED that the application be granted for permission to
operate a temporary amusement enterprise on th-e condition that
the Catholic War Veterans Post $730 be ~esponsibl~e for restoring
the property to its original condition,
Vote of the Board:

Ayes:- Mr. Gillispie,. Mr. Bergen,. and
Mr. Joseph Droskoski~ Orient,.. New ¥ork,~ came before the
Board of Appeals for an informal discussion. Mr. Droskoski had
purchased two cottages and wished to place them on a piece of his
property at Orient 172 ft~ by 150 ft.. After looking at the layout.
of the property it was determined that Mr. Droskoski could enlarge
the lot to 200 ft. by 150 ft. thus making two 100 ft, lots in
conformance with the requirements of the Ordinance.
Mr. Peter Karas~ East Marion~ New York,. came before the Board
of Appeals for an informal discussion relative to erecting a third
sign on his "B" Business property at west Greenport. Mr. Karas had
been granted a special exception on June 4,~ 19~9 giving him permission
to erect a roof sign on the Greenport Snack Bar~ however~ it was
stipulated that this roof sign was to take the place of the customary
standing sign~ since he would then have~ in effect~ two wall signs.
Mr~ Karas now agreed that he would take down the wall sign on the
west side of the Snack Bar if he is granted permission to have a
standing sign~ The Board of Appeals stated that that would be
satisfactory as long as the wall sign is taken down first.

The Board of Appeals next spoke informally to Mr. Steve Hornick
of Elmhurst~_ New York. Mr. Hornick has purchased the former Reybine
house on Skippers Lane~ Orient, New York# and would like to convert
it into a three family dwelling. At the time he purchased it the
real estate agent assured him it could easily be made into a three
family dwelling as it is surrounded by two and three family dwellings
and tourist houses. Mr. Hornick was advised that the house is
located in the "A" Residential and Agricultural District~. where only
one-family dwellings are permitted~ He was further advised that his
problem would be solved if he applied for and was granted a change of
zone from "A" To "M" Multiple Residence District. It was pointed out

Ix)rs were to ~oir~ with him in the application for a change to "M".
