RESOLVED that this special exception be granted permitting
Fishers Island Farms,. Inc., a/c David Wilmerding to erect addition
to non-conforming garage no closer than 13 ft. to the south
property line on Oceanic Avenue~ Fishers Island~ New York.
Vote of the Board: Ayes:- Mr. Gillispie, Mr. Bergen, Mr.
Rosenberg,
Mr~ George Lind appeared before the Board of Appeals for an
informal discussion relative to his fathers property, Louis Lind~
located on the south side of-Soundview Avenue~ near Hortons Point,
Southold. Mr. Lind has an. irregularly shaped corner lot and wishes
to erect an addition. However, due to the angle of the lot line on
the street the addition would come closer to the lot line than the
existing house. Since this is a corner lot the setback should be
35 ft. on the street. However, the present house is only 24
2 in. from the street at the closest point and the addition will
then come 21 ft, 5 in. Mr. Lind stated that it would be impractical
to locate the addition in any other position because of the layout
of the rooms in the existing house. Mr. Lind was advised by the
Board of Appeals that he would be justified in making an application
for a special exception.
Mrs. William Victoria~ Jamesport,~ appeared before the Board
of Appeals for an informal discussion. Mr. and Mrs. Victoria
have non-conforming cottages at Bayview, Southold and would like
to add motel-type u~its. They have purchased a barge and would
like to float it ashore and remodel it into motel units. Mrs.
Victoria asked if the Board of Appeals would have any objections
to ~that type of project.
The Chairman advised Mrs. Victoria that the erection of a
motel in her cottage colony would require a change of zone to
"M" Multiple Residence DiStrict which should be taken up with
the Town Board, As far as floating the barge ashore and breaking
the shoreline she would have to consult with the own Trustees.
Mrs. Wilma Zimmermann, Cutchogue~. New York~ appeared before
the Board of Appeals for an informal discussion. Mrs. Zimmermann
would like to have a yarn shop in the back porch of her home.
The previous owner~ also a Zimmermann, had an upholstery shop in
his home which was less than two years ago. Mrs. Zimmermannwas
advised that this yarn shop would come under the hea~ng of home

occupations in the "A" Residential and Agricultural District
and she may conduct a yarn shop providing there is no display
of goods publicly and no advertisement shown other than a sign
nOt larger than 2 sq, ft. bearing the name of the practitioner
and the occupation in words only.
F~r. John F. McNulty~. Jr., Laurel, N.Y. accompanied by his
father John F. McNulty~ St., and Mrs. Clarence Diller, Peconic~
sister of Mr. McNulty, Sr., appeared before the Board for further
discussion relative to their property on Long Island So~nd at
Laurel. On September 22nd the McNultys met with the Board of
Appeals and stated that they have a piece of property on Long
Island Sound in Laurel which is 1.40 ft. wide and has approx-
imately 400 ft. in depth. They have a prospective purchaser
for 100 ft. and would like to keep 40 ft, which would be used
as a right-of-way to the water for futuZe purchasers of their
property to the south. The Board had advised Mr. McNulty that
they could not grant a variance leaving 40 ft, They suggested
however that a ~eed be made including the 40 ft. to. the purchaser
of the t00 ft. parcel making it specific in the deed that the
right-of-way be kept as a permanent right-of-way for the use
of the property owners to the south.
The McNu!ty's again repeated their proposal of selling
100 ft. and keeping the 40 ft. and the Board again advised
that as far as they can see they cannot grant a variance,
however they would behappy to have Mr. McNUlty take the matter
up with the Town.Attorney to determine if there is any other
possible solution.
