CHAIRMAN: This appeal is in behalf of Timothy Gray & Jimbo
Realty, which we had as a carryover from the last meeting. We'll ask
Mr. Gray if there is anything he would like to add, and we'll talk
about the mix-up, when we were meeting with him the last time.
MR. JIM GRAY: These are the ones that we had done over because
el: the parking. You wanted more landscaping there, Linde?
SECItETARY LINDA KOWALSKI: Lydia, not me.
CIIAIRMAN: Thank you. Ok. Is there anything you want to add
for the record Jim (Gray)?
MR. JIM GRAY: No. [ just thought I'd go over and see if I could
pick your brains. Linde called me up today and said if I could get
something more in detail, why it's possibly, that I had to have that
size building, or how ] could rearrange. So, we went over the
prints today-'and we came up with some changes, but I think they're
legible, and good enough for you. They're in dark. The same piece
of proper~y.

CHAIRMAN: OK
MR. JIM GRAY: Three buildings instead of ~wo, and they're 70 feet
in width, instead of 120 fee~,
CHAIRMAN: OK
MR. JIM GRAY: The only thing is, ali around the perimeter, we
have the one ( ) one story, going around the back, the size of
the back.
SECRETARY LINDA KOWALSKI: Mr. Gray, when I called you today I
also asked you if you had any kind of interior plan that would show
t~ow the honeycomb effect or whatever that effect is that ---.
MI{. JIM GRAY: That we called up down in Texas, and they don't
fax us up something, bu~ they want a general idea, and they are
going to lay it all ouT,
SE-~RETARY LINDA KOWALSKI: OK
MR. JIM GRAY: You'll have walkways, exit doors, and everything.
CHAIRMAN: OK. ls there any building on the Island that looks like
this, do you know of. I realize that you own properly all over the
island but --.
MR. JIM GRAY: Most mini-storages a~ the other end would have two
story's. All public service story's.
CHAIRMAN: Yes, but I'm talking about this central core area that,
the drive in effect of the central core area, for the maximum
security as apposed to just the normal security.
MR. JIM GRAY: They all have it now.
CttAIRMAN: They all have it now.
MR. JIM GRAY: Yes. We're the only ones out here that don't have
it.
CttAIRMAN; 1 see.
MR, JIM GRAY: If you go up m any route's on Route 110, just
North of Southern State Parkway.

MR. JIM GRAY: The landscaping in front of it will be done
beautiful. Just the way you want it. Tall trees and landscaping you
know.
MEMBER TORTORA: Just tell me that the parking ( ).
MR. JIM GRAY: We reduced the parking right down to here, so the
landscaping is ( ).
CHAIRMAN: Now, the Planning Board hasn't looked at this at all,
right.
MR. JIM GRAY: Yes they did.
CHAIRMAN: They did
MR. JIM GRAY Yes
CHAIRMAN: What did they say.
MR. JIM GRAY: They wouldn't give me a plus on it. The buildings
are too big.
MEMBER TORTORA: The buildings are too big, in what respect?
CHAIRMAN: They want 60 feet.
MR. JIM GRAY: They don't want anything bigger than 60 foot
wire ( ).
SECRETARY LINDA KOWALSKI: Are they l0 foot bigger. Ten foot
each bigger?
CHAIRMAN: No, that's ---.
Everyone is talking at once.
MR. JIM GRAY: These are 70 feet.
CHAIRMAN: These are the only thing that's building ---.
SECRETARY LINDA KOWALSKI: They're supposed to be 60 feet wide
right, so that's only 10 feet.
Everyone is talking at once.
CHAIRMAN: This is the only problem you have here, is access into
it, the fire code. This is right in this general vicinity.
MR. JIM GRAY: Good, cut this out. I just ( ). I'd cut it
down, and this building would be moved over inside this building,
Page 5 - Transcript of tiearings
Regular Meeting of July 24, I996
Southold Town Board of Appeals
and it would be big enough for fire engines to get all the way around
ii.
MEMBER VILLA: So then, this one. You have four buildings on this.
CHAIRMAN: Yes
MEMBER VILLA: You have one long narrow one, that's really ( ).
MEMBER TORTORA: The original plan that received the notice of
disapproval.
MI{. JIM GRAY: Yes
MEMBER TORTORA: Because I have one here that shows the
buihtings being 120.
Mit. JIM GRAY: 120 feet wide and 154
MEMBER VILLA: Yes
MEMBER TORTORA: No, there is another one here. Right, this
plan. Was this the plan that received the" Notice of Disapproval".
The reason I'm asking is that, there is a section of the code that
discusses that the length of the building shall be no longer than 125
feet. I don't ---. You know, I want ~o run this by the Building
Department
MR. JIM GRAY: I'm not sure.
SECRETARY LINDA KOWALSKI: Yes, but that's not depth. You're
mistaken the length of the building. I'm not sure how you would
define the length.
MEMBER TORTORA: Exactly. In other words Linde, I understand
this. I don't want to --.
SECRETARY LiNDA KOWALSKI: We could send a memo.
MEMBER TORTORA: Sure, to a point of clarification, and also
clarification to pursue this plan. But also, prefer clarification of
the distance between buildings, because we want to make sure that
whatever we do, you're not back here for another variance. That's
all.
CHAIRMAN: All right. So, we'll do that, ok and get back to you on
this plan. ~We'll recess it again to the next regular scheduled
meeting, and we'll more than likely --. We may discuss it with the
Planning Board. I don't know. We'll see what happens.

MEMBER VILLA: and a core.
MR. JIM GRAY: Yes
MEMBER VILLA: Why can't you have separate buildings back to back
with cubby's, back to back tubby's, and have another, building, the
whole 60 foot width of core.
Mt1. JIM GRAY: Wouldn't have enough land because say you make
the cubbyhole 15 feel deep, 30 feet wide from the building .
MEMBER VILLA: Right
MI{. JIM GRAY: 30 foot wide, then you have to have a 30 foot
driveway So, it cuts down the size of any building. We want to
get about 75,000 square feet of building in this, to make it
worthwhile.
MEMBER VILLA: Yes, that's up and down.
MR. JIM GRAY: Yes
MEMBER VILLA: Do you suppose there could be another
configuration thai you could do.
MR. JIM GRAY: If [ had more land, that would be an excellent
idea. I want to thank you guys again tonigt~t.
MEMBER. TORTORA: Thank you Mr. Gray
MR. JIM GRAY: It's nice seeing you.
SECRETARY LINDA KOWALSKI: Thank you for bringing those.
MR. JIM GRAY: OK, thank you.
CtlAiRMAN: Yo~ are aware Mr. Gray that we were in the office
Yot~ were at the meeting.
MR. JIM GRAY: I know.
MEMBER TORTORA: You were in the wrong office.
MR. JIM GRAY: ] was banging on the door. and I got no answer.
CHAIRMAN: Have a good night.
SECRETARY~LINDA KOWALSKI: Mr. Gray, one thing. We go~ a
letter today from the Planning Board to, on the old plan that we
bad. Hold on, I'll give you a copy of it here. I may have it for
you.

tie's, because---.
MR. GIOIA: It was approved.
CI{AIRMAN: I have to be honest with you. All these lots down
there, we've always had phenomenal variances on them. There was a
gentlemen by the name of Peter Warren, that developed this property.
MR. GIOIA: tiis name is right there.
CHAIRMAN: We'll start with Mr. Villa. What do you want to ask.
MEMBER TORTORA: That doesn't matter ( ) inaudible.
MEMBER V1LLA: i'm confused. We had granted something in
December.
CltAIRMAN: Yes, 15 feet from the property line.
MR GIOIA: You see, I got confused because there ~s the
right-of-way, and then there is some kind of buffer area, and ti~en,
my property line. From the right-of-way, buffer area, and my
property line, there's 15 feet~ So ] thought I had enough to build.
SECRETARY LINDA KOWALSKI: Do you have a new map Bob? Is it
in there? The sketch on the new location.
MEMBER VILLA: No, I don't think so.
SECRETARY LINDA KOWALSKI: It's no~ in there, ok. Jerry, we
probably need ho see the map.
MR. GIOIA: I have another one here.
CIIAIRMAN: OK, let's start with Mr. Doyen first. Mr. Doyen, no
questions. Mrs. Tortora.
MEMBER TORTORA: No, [ wen~ down and I (
CHAIRMAN: ._Normally the question that I have Mr. Gioia is that, at
five feet, working on the back of your garage, can you still be on
your own property, putting a ladder up?

MR. GIOIA: Then [ originally owned.
CHAIRMAN: It's unfortunate that they didn't set the house back a
little farther, toward the water. But, they couldn't do so, based
upon this decision. But, that's for a primary structure Bob.
SECRETARY LINDA KOWALSKI: Anywhere he puts a garage, he
needs a variance. That's tile problem, anywhere, so.
CHAIRMAN: The question I have Bob is. What's your concern.
This is not ---. Tell me what we can work out?
MEMBER VILLA: Well, you have a garage door there now, that used
re be a garage.
MR. G1OIA: Right
MEMBER VILLA: What is that now?
MR, GIOIA: It's still a garage. It's going re be converted to a
MEMBER VILLA: So, why couldn't you attached the garage right
there?
MI{. GIOIA: How could I attach it. Then I build another garage
nex~ ~o it.
MEMBER VILLA: Yes, attach it right ---.
MR. GIOIA: But the entrance is in the front.
MEMBER VILLA: The entrance is in what?
MR. GIOIA: The entrance of the house 1s in the front.
MEMBER VILLA: Yes
MI{. GIOIA: I mean, it's next to --.
SECRETARY LINDA KOWALSKI: The right-of-way.
Mt{. GIOIA: The rigl~t-of-way. It's facing the right-of-way. The
l~ouse is facing the right-of-way. That's tile front. If I build a
garage right [here, I--
SECRETARY LINDA KOWALSKI: tie still needs a variance.

MEMBER VILLA: It's not going re be any different than it would be
the other way, [ don't think. I can't see it.
SECRETARY LINDA KOWALSKI: Is there any reason that you would
rather have the garage separate from the house, than attached?
MR. GIOIA: By having it separate, I'll have s two cay. garage.
MEMBER VILLA: Here's your 38 feet, here's your 38 feet. If you
came back, you're almost going to be there. You're going to be off
side of' the road. So, if you stayed with the 38 feet, you would
still be ---.
CttAIRMAN: But he doesn't want to come In perpendicular. He
wants to come in on the side. See what he wants to do, he wants To
'be a'ble To come in like this, and go into the garage. The same
situation, whel~ you come out, ok, you're out like this
SECRETARY LINDA KOWALSKI: Yes
CHAIRMAN: The other way, you have to take down [o do all these
swings. That's what he's saying.
MEMBER VILLA: Yes
CHAIRMAN: I'm just saying this. It's a matter of ( ).
SECRETARY LINDA KOWALSKI: And you can't come in to the
right-of-way.
CttAIRMAN: You've go To ---.
MR. GIOIA: I'm not supposed to ---
CIIA1RMAN: You've got to come out.
SECRETARY LINDA KOWALSKI: You've go~ ~o come the other way.
CHAIRMAN: OK, you understood the question I asked him about the
ladder and the working on the ---.
MEMBER VILLA: I understand that. We go through that all the
time.
CIIAIRMAN: Yes, tell rne what you want to do. I mean, I'm not
trying to put you on the spot. We can recess it and discuss it.
Whatever you want to. While we're here we'll ask, if anybody else
wants to speh]{ on behalf of this application, ok. Seeing no hands.

MEMBER DOYEN: No questions.
CHAIRMAN: Mrs. Tortora.
MEMBER TORTORA: No, ['11 wait.
CHAIRMAN: OK, Mr. Villa.
MEMBER VILLA: Well basically, what triggered this is that you were
~rying ko put an addition on the house.
MR. WILLIAM BEEBE: Yes, right right. And that's when I found
out. The Building Department doesn't even know it. They had a
bill all made out for me, and then they went across to the Assessor's.
SECRETARY LINDA KOWALSKI: Yes. He had separate pre CO, and
separate everything on it.
MEMBER VILLA: This additions are on the side of the house, or you
said, are olx the front of the house.
MR. WILLIAM BEEBE: Well ( ) on the front of the house, yes.
MEMBER VILLA: We don't have a sketch that shows that.
MEMBER TORTORA: Isn't thai it? Is this it, the proposed
additions.
SECRETARY LINDA KOWALSKI: The addition is ou~ of our
jurisdiction, so we don't ask for it when it's filed.
MR. WILLIAM BEEBE: It goes this way. There's a foundation there,
I used to have a shop for. I plan on using that same foundation.
CIIAIRMAN: Oil, I see.
MR. W1LL1AM BEEBE: I moved the shop off years ago.
CIIAIRMAN: OK
MEMBER VILLA: So how far are you coming out.
MR. WILLIAM BEEBE: 34 feet.
MEMBER VILLA: So basically, you're going to be doubling the size
of that bouse~ or more.

Regular Meeting of July 24~ 1996
Southold Town Board of Appeals
7:47 p.m. Appl. No. 4399 DOUGLAS AND LORRAINE ROSE:
l{ecjuest for a Variance based upon the Juno 20, 1996 Building
Inspector's Notice of Disapproval under Article lllA, Section
100-31A.3 issued on the request on the I'ollowing grounds: A
building permit application has been filed requesting the location of
an in ground pool with raised terrace attached by a raised deck along
the rear of existing dwelling, to be located partly in the front yard
area (facing Pine Neck Road). Location of Property: 95 Kimberly
Lane, Southold, NY; Lot #I on the Map of Paradise By the Bay;
County Parcel ~1000-70-13-20.1.
CItAIRMAN: An application for a raised deck, and a copy of a
Suffolk County Tax Map indicating this and surrounding properties in
the area. We're ready.
MR. DOUGLAS ROSE: ] brought the affidavit for posted ( ),
and I brought you five copies of what is a proposed blueprint of the
area, iii a larger scale.
CHAIRMAN: OK
MR. DOUGLAS ROSE: Do you need other copies.
CHAIRMAN: No, that's fine unless someone wants to see it. All
right. What would you like to tell us abou~ it?
M[~. DOUGLAS ROSE: Basically, the house faces the water. It's a
bulkheaded piece of property, but it's far enough back that I don't
have to worry about any of the frontage. The side is where the
ramp, the boat ramp for Pine Neck Road is. The actual frontage is
Khnberly, which was a subdivision.
CIIAIRMAN: Yes
MR. DOUGLAS ROSE: And the only variance we're asking for, is the
pool go a Ii[tie furti~er to the side of the house, so it doesn't
disr~lpt the view out of the back of the house. In doing so~ we
would barfer, which was already a grouping of trees, which is not
from there. It was from additional trees, so it would not intensify.
CtIAIRMAN: Is that a walking path easement?
MR. DOUGLAS ROSE: No.
CIIA1RMAN: No.
MR. DOUGLAS ROSE: It's just a buffer.
MEMBER TORTORA: What's the distance, your yard , 25 feet.

MR. DOUGLAS ROSE: This is some of the tall cedar trees, that are
there. They would stay and we would increase that as well, Too.
And where the pool is suggested. This is the growth that is over to
the side, that would [lot be disrupted. This is the part that we're
taking down by the deck, which was a wooden deck, and the one
deck is off of virgin property. It's about two, maybe 2 and one half
feet. The other one is one foot, and all we're going to do is build
or suggest building~ a cinder block wall as a retaining wall, and
fill in the side, what we're taking out of the pool. There's a two
fold process in doing it, is that [ don't have to build a six foot
high fence, that looks like a six foot high fence.
C HA l [{MAN: Righi
Mi{.. DOUGLAS ROSE: And then put plantings around it, and second
o~' all, if we have any other slorms like I told you, we never had
nnti! I moved out here, it would act as ~ retaining wall.
CHAIRMAN: You're talking aboul the 1992 storm.
MR. DOUGLAS ROSE: The one after I moved out. The one that
encroach the lawn. Everybody told me, it never happened.
CIIA1RMAN: It's a tong lawn too.
MEMBER TORTORA: On the map that you have. You say it's 96
feet to the wooden bulkhead from the house.
MR. DOUGLAS ROSE: Yes
MEMBER TORTORA: What is the distance from the outside perimeter
of the pool?
MR. DOUGLAS ROSE: I didn't scale it, but it's more than 75 feet.
MEMBER TORTORA: I think it's ( ).
SECRETARY LINDA KOWALSKI; Oh definitely.
CttAIRMAN: Just run it ~or us.
MI¢. DOUGLAS ROSE: Sure
MEMBER TORTOI{A: I think we should have that scale and document
( ),as well as the distance from the new ( ).
MI{. I)OUGLAS ROSE: Yes
MEMBER VILLA: What are you going to do with the filtered water.

CIIA1RMAN: No, it should be four.
SECi{ETARY LINDA KOWALSKI: No, four foot high.
CHAIRMAN: Four fool high, but it depends upon on grade.
MR. DOUGLAS ROSE: It has to be four foot high at the lowest

CttAIRMAN: Yes
MEMBER VILLA; Four foot above grade, there around the pool
MR~ DOUGLAS ROSE: Right. That's not a problem.
CHAIRMAN: That's a State requirement.
MR. DOUGLAS ROSE: It's basically jus[ toddlers that it keeps out.
I mean, those thst want [o go over a four foot fence can do it,
CHAIRMAN: Right. Is there anybody in the audience that would
like to speak in favor or against this application? [ should point
ou~ to anybody in the audience, this is the first night that
everybody's come ou~ to the dais. Normally, we let them use the
individual mikes, if axiybody has any specific questions about any of
the applications, we'd be very happy to recess, and show them the
plan and [hen come back. Questions from anybody, for or against
ibis application? Seeing no hands Ladies and Gentlemen, based upon
the restriction that there be no intense overhead lighting, and no
covering of the decking and pool ares, and leaving it unclosed.
We're ready for a motion, if anyone would like to do that.
MEMBER VILLA: Plus, it be 75 feet from the bnlkhead.
CHAIRMAN: Yes, and be a minimum of 75 feet,
MEMi{ER VILLA: And the buffering would remain.

Ilegular Meeting of July 25, 1996
Southold Town Board of Appeals
7:56 p.m. Appl. No. 4398 JOHN AND MARY MCFEELY. Request
fer variance based upon the June 26, 1996 Building Inspector's Notice
of Disapproval under Article 111, Section 100-30B(3), issued on the
following grounds: A building permit application has been filed
requesting the location of an accessory building with a reduced side
yard setback, as 5900 Great Peconic Bay Boulevard, Laurel, NY;
County Tax Map Parcel ~1000-129-02-9.1.
CIIAIRMAN: We have a survey with a pinned in area that we will
reques~ the applicant so decipher for us, and we have a copy of the
Suffolk CourtW Tax Map indicating this and surrounding properties in
the area. Mr. McFeely, how are you tonight Sir?
MR.. JOItN MCFEELY: Fine thank you.
CttAIRMAN: What can you tell us about this garage area that you
wan~ ~o build?
MR. JOIlN MCFEELY: The only one that showed any concern over
this, is my nexs door neighbor John Rozansky, and after a few
discussions with him, he has agreed ~o without any problem on his
par~, if I was five feet off the proper~y, off his garage. He has
the garage tlaree feet off the properW line. Two properties West.
Rosin is virtually on the properly line with a garage, maybe a foot.
He has said, his concern was that I would, be mowng too close ~o my
house. He has agreed if I go no further than 10 feet, South of his
garage, he would agree [o five feet off the properW line. He would
have uo 1)roblem with that.
MEMBER TORTORA: He said, five feet wes~ of his proper~y line,
meaning' yours.
MR. JOHN MCFEELY: Five feet wess of his properw line, as long as
i projected no more ~han 10 feet South of the corner of his garage,
lie would have no problem with it.
CHAII~MAN: Right. Let's jus~ talk --. We're talking 60 feet
i~pproxiim~tely. Is thai what it is from Peconic Bay Boulevard, or is
that going to change it now?
MR. JOHN MCFEELY: No Sir.
CHAIRMAN: It would be about the same.
MI{. JOHN MCFEELY: I thought it was a little more than that.
CHAIRMAN: OK, maybe 60 feet plus as you said.
MI{. JO}IN MCFEELY: [ think it's quite a bit more than 60 feet.

MEMBER TORTORA: Do you plan on using this for living in?
MR. JOHN MCFEELY: No
CtlAll{MAN: And this is 20 by 30. Is thai correct? Where is the
spplication?
MI{. JOHN MCFEELY: I don't know. I didn't find it.
CI1AIRMAN: Yes, it's in the building permit. You have 25 by 30.
Mi{. JOHN MCFEELY: That's about right~ yes. Two car plus a
shop, plus an entrance ~o walk in to go up to the loft above. It's
about 24 foot deep.
CHAIRMAN: OK. we'll start with Mr. Villa. Again we're back ~o the
five feet.
MEMBER VILLA: It's five feet off the property line.
CtlAIRMAN: Yes
MEMBER VILLA: You didn't look at any other locations on the
property. I mean, [ was down there and I saw the whole lots open
m the front there. It would almost appear, that this was going to
interfere with your driveway You're going to have to revamp the
whole driveway.
MR.. JOI{i~- MCFEELY: I'll have to move the driveway a little bit, but
the beauty of the lot, seeing as the lot West of it, which I also
own, the garage is all the way back on the property line. I have
this back on the property. It leaves a beautiful two acre wooded
are~, rather than having a garage sitting in the middle of it.
CIIAIRMAN: We are again back to that situation~ that we asked Mr.
( ) and that is. With the back of the garage, are you going to
be able ~o work on the back of the garage, five feet from the
proper~y line?
Mi{. JOHN MCFEELY: I would think easily.
CHAII~MAN: [ mean, it's a cape style. You are going ~o have to put
a gutter on the back, so you don't flood your neighbors our.
MI{. JOHN MCFEELY: Right
CItAIRMAN: On the back, you know, of the overall overhang itself
( ) l~'ecause that's probably the way tile roof line is golng to
run. It's going to run --.
MR. JOHN MCFEELY: It's going --. I wish I knew, lets see.

MR. JOHN MCFEELY: Well, the property is about 90 feet wide, and
I'd have to move my driveway over that much further. The rest of
the garage is ---. My neighbor Rozansky and my neighbor( )
are three feet and one foot. They were done many years ago.
MEMBER TORTORA: I didn't mean. Maybe I missed something. I
didn't feel that you would have ~o move the garage. I mean, move
the driveway, in order ~o jusl come hack 10 feet. Your saying, you
would?
MR. JOHN MCFEELY: I'll have to move it somewhat anyway. As it
come down now, it would cu~ into it. I could bring it in, the way it
~s, but I'll have to do a little work on it, and bring it around.
MEMBER VILLA: Which way --.
MEMI)ER TORTORA: Five feet or ten leer, you mean.
(~'}IAtRMAN: What's that Bob?
MEMBER VILLA: Well, where are the doors going [o ~ace?
MR. JOIIN MCFEELY: Ten feet that way and five feet.
MEMBER VILLA: I wan~ re find out.
SECRETAI{Y LINDA KOWALSKI: We will need to know.
MI,;MBER VILLA: Which way are the doors going re face?
Mit.. JOIIN MCFEELY: The doors will be facing West, coming down
the driveway they'll be a right angle into the garage.
C}tAIRMAN: Left angle.
MEMBER VILLA: So you won't see a ---.
MI/.. JOI1N MCFEELY: A left rum on a right angle. You will not see
the doors fro[n the street.
MEMBER VILLA: From the road. You're going to have to put your
driveway almost on the other side of the lot, because your driveway
righI now is only in like 10 feet from the East side of the lot.
MR. JOItN MCFEELY: No, it's iu, I'd say it's in ar least 20, 22, 23
feet.
MEMBER VILLA: To ~he Wes~ side of it.
MR. JOHN MCFEELY: Even ~o the East side of it. I have a big rock

has preexisting residences on both sides, and the parcel itself has,
the building where Rent-a-Wreck is currently renting that is partly
residence, and partly commercial. And then to the West, on the same
properW is a eemen~ block building. The property has a CO and it
was dated, or it is dated June 1, 1979. It's described as a business
building "service station," and accessory structure "repair shop".
So we have presently a pre-CO.
Now, the trip through memory lane. In 1960s I understand
that a Harry Bubb owned and operated a gas station there, and
that's when the pumps were in the front under the canopy, or by the
canopy there. Then, it's a mystery because I couldn't get anyone ~o
tell me anytlfing mere. But in May of '78, a Mr. Cataldo family sold
it to, I guess within the same family or another Cataldo, and there
was in the Building Department's records a housing code inspection
that said that the dwelling that had the service station with a
portico over the gas pumps, it was Sound Precision, which I seem to
recall in my History period, it was an auto repair place, and it was
in a cement building on a slab. The house was in terrible disrepair,
and [t had numerous violations on the sanitary code and the building
code. It was nor in good shape.
Then the proper~y iix '79 was sold ~o a Moritz. The cemen~
building, based on the Assessor's records, there is a picture of the
cement building, and it shows the Lawn Mower Repair Sales and
Serwce was being done on that property. Then in '81, Sonny Brown
made an appeal (sic) (special exception) to your board, and you have
a decision in your file that he requested an auto repair business
with certain conditions that were imposed by the Zoning Board at that
lime.
In '83, tile Gnozzo family Gnozzo they asked to reinstate
the residence and again, that was with certain conditions on it.
That appeal was made ~o the Zoning Board, so you have that in your
record. While the easterly structure was used as a residence, and
maybe ~o a certain3 ex~en~ commercial, there was a continued use of
the ce~nen~ building as a co~nmercia] property. Do you have questions
because ] know that you-?
MEMBER TORTORA: I don't have a copy of the Zoning Board '83
decision.
PATRICIA MOORE ESQ.: Oh that's right, ok. Linde I know has
that in there, but I have a copy as well.
MEMBER TORTORA: Yes.
PATRICIA MOORE ESQ: Then in 1988, Mattituck glass window, they
do glass works obviously, windows, repairs and automobile glass was
sold, serviced and installed at this location.

PATRICIA MOORE ES(~: 1'11 ge~ into wha~ they specifically do, ok.
CIIAIRMAN: OK.
PATR1CIA MOORE ESQ: Now ge[lng ~o my legal argument, which you
knew at one point or another, I was going to bring in. Under
Article 24 on the nonconforming use section, it says, that a
non-conforming use regardless of the change of title, possession or
occupancy, has the right thereof, may be continued indefinitely and
then cease as, but shall not be changed ~o another nonconforming use
without approval of the ZBA, and then only ~o a use which in the
opinion of the board is of the same or more restricted nature. That's
one argumen[ in favor that, I think you could use in favor of
granting this application.
This property as I pointed out, the history has been
COlmIlel, clat USES. It's been automobile related uses, ear service
statiou, gasoline, car repairs, the automobile glass repairs. It's
been retail sales. Automobile items were sold. Lawn mowers were
sold, serviced. Mirror and glass were sold. So, we've got now two
uses that have been continuing at various times throughout it's
history
As to Rent-A-Wreck, what do they do? They rent cars, they
don't lease them, because he explained re me, honestly, I didn't
realize that--there is a big difference, but renting versus leasing.
Leasing is for long term. Renting is for short term. Anything

Regulur Meeting of July 24, 1996
Soul. bold Town Board of Appeals
office, or here. He says ok, so and so wants a car, and he
distributes the ears out.
So there's really no, urn, it's mostly a business office.
Which is my second legal argument is thai, ii is a permitted use
under the zoning district. The business office is a permitted use.
That's What he has. The retail sales is an accessory supplemental
use, that's permitted in the zoning district. I believe from
previous interpretations that you have with Taylor Rental. You said
in the past, hey, rent or buy. In retail you can buy, you can rent
- because it's just a form of ownership, and as long as it's not the
predominate use there, and it is supplemental, the office is the
prnnary use, and then the rental is his inventory, he fulfills that
need.
Now we can talk about whai kind of people are asking for
these Rent-a-Wrecks. Now, if these were Mercedes-Benz or Porches,
well maybe they wouldn't rent wrecks. They'd be renting fancy cars
and they would be alot more. But he had the used cars. He has 90
(:ars in his fleet at Middle Island. He owns or leases his own repair
shop in Middle Island, and then he has a flatbed truck which he
owns which ~ransports all these vehicles That's why I'm sure that
he is not going to operate any repairs at that site, because he's
already paying for it and has his who i~frastructure set up in Middle
lsland, and this Southold office m a satellite office.
He fulfills a need in this community because his rentals
are daily rentals for boaters. When the boaters come in and they
want ~o get around and tour the North Fork, this is the best way to
do it, is the rental of a car for a day, or a week, or however long
our visitors are here. Sometimes he gets visitors that want to visit
Tanger Mall or Splish Splash, and they go off and do that. He has
one that certain people in the community have rented. One person
that I got lhis story from your office manager, her husband had to
go ¢o Sloan Kettering and they wanted ~o get a larger vehicle to give
him a comfortable ride, because it was a long ride from here to the
medical facility. So, there are people here in Town that need .that
service as well. There is apparently, advertising his service here.
There is free pick up at the for the customers at the
Ferry or lhe Bus or the Train, or their personal homes. So, you
don't really have a lot of parking needs there, because mos! people,
if they need it, obviously they have a car, they wouldn't need it.
They wouldn't need to ren~ one. So it's typically, they would have
to go and rent the car to the person wherever they are, that the
car, that the person is waiting for.
As~far as employees. There are ten (10) permanen~
employees with no more than one or two employees on the East End.
lie has 10 permanen~ in his Middle Island office, with one or two
maximum her'e, and it's usually you or your office manager, right.

Regular Meeting of July 24, 1996
Southold Town Boapd of Appeals
DAVID DEFRIEST: Right, I was.
PATRICIA MOORE ESQ: Ok, come on and answer. You know you
can. (Mr. DeFriest came up to the tnicrophone)
DAVID DEFRIEST: [n 1991 I had rented the facility, in 1991 or 1990
I was renting from Joseph Gnozzo, the big block building, and [ was
going to try to do a used ear business, the same th~ng Mr. Goodale
ia doing itl Mattituck. I ran into the same obstacle he did. But I
didn't pursue it, so I got out of there at that time, and then I've
always kept in touch with Mr. Gnozzo and now I've entered into a
lease agreement with an option to buy the facility, the five acres.
So for me, it's to my advantage. The reason I want to get this is,
is because for my investment I'm going to have there,a this is the
best situation re rent it out as a business, as opposed re a
residence. So right now, [ lease it with an option to buy, and I
have two years to exorcise tl~at option.
CHAIRMAN: $o you're very simply, leasing it to him.
MR. DAVID DEFRIEST: Well yes, he's my tenant. Right.
PATRICIA MOORE ESQ: A subtenanl, sublease.
SECRETARY LINDA KOWALSKI: I just wanted to ask. Is he using
ih¢; property at all under the lease, separately from the subtenant?
Mit. DEFRIEST: Me?
SEC RI']TARY: Yes.
PATRICIA MOORE ESQ: Are you using it?
MR. DAVID DEFRIEST: No, I'm not. I have another tenant in the
block building. That's what I started to say earlier, then I didn't
say anylllOre. I have a tenant there who is storing cars. Joe 1s no~
storing cars there.
CHAIRMAN: Right.
SECRETARY L1NDA KOWALSKI: OK
CtlAIRMAN: He's not utilizing thai building at all.
MR. DAVID DEFRIEST: No. And then there's the little block
buihling in the back, thai kind of mine. At this point I haven't
done anything with it. All I've done m clean it out, and it's going
to be painted, and you know, put a new roof on it. I did that
already.

Mr. WII,LSBY: [ do nor lease the whole property. I only lease part
o[ it.
SECRETARY LINDA KOWALSKI: What part of il do you lease?
Mr. DEFRIEST: Just an area that surrounds the building. Basically
where you have that picture that you mentioned, where it shows
employees' parking behind the building.
MEMBER VILLA: Right.
Mr. DEFRIEST; He leases that little space back there, and the entire
building in the front.
CllAIRMAN: You're refereeing [o the house, as the entire building.
Mr. DEFRIEST: Yes
CIIAiRMAN: Right
MEMBEI{ VILLA: Aud some dividing line between that and the
concrete building.
Mr. I)EFI{IEST: Right
MEMBEI( VILLA: Because it's showing --
CIlAIIiMAN: That's a common driveway.
Mr, DEFRIEST: Ob, yes. The concrete building, the big one. I
was thinking about the little one here. But, lhe little concrete
building in the back, he leases from basically the building ~o the
right of that, and the whole entire building where his office is.
MEMBER VILLA: Because it shows ~wo rental cars to the side of that
bailding, which would be the West side,
Mr. DEFRIEST: Yes
MEMBER VILLA: I was just wondering if you couldn't just line them
up in there, rather then in the front.
Mr. DEFRIEST: It would be hard because that's a common driveway
for the other man.
MEMBER VILLA: Ok.
SECRETARY--LINDA KOWALSKI: Where is the common driveway?

where, you have an inventory of things. It could be lawn mowers, it
could be soups, It could be anything, and you rent it, rather than
sell it.
MEMBElt TORTORA: I'm not questioning that, I'm just questioning,
wl~eihe~, we should be looking at the criteria for a use variance, and
whether your client has looked at any el' the other permitted options
in that district. That was one of the things I wanted to know, and
the other thing I wanted to know is: You mentioned that this used
~o be a B district. Do you know if that was changed in 19897
PATRICIA MOORE ESQ: It was done in 1989.
MEMBER TORTORA: So after 1989, it has not been used for.
anything but office, Chesterfield Associates I believe?
PATRICIA MOORE ESQ: No, it was a lawn mower was it.
MEMBER TORTORA: That was prier to --.
PATi~ICIA MOORE ESQ: It was Lawn mower and Sales.
MEMBER TORTOt~A: That was 1979 according to what you said.
PATRICIA MOORE ESQ: Now wait a second. Let me see, Oh,
thereabouts, in 1988 is what I had as Mattituek Glass & Window, and
Auto Glass sold. Based on the photograph that's in the Assessor's
OiTice that has a date on it. Bu~, whether it was continuing after
that date, is in that range. It's in that period of time.
MEMBER TORTORA: What I'm trying to get at is. After the zone
was chauged there, has it at any time been used for anything other
than a business office without a Special Exception permit from the
Zoning Board of Appeals.
PATR1CIA MOORE ESQ: Other than a business office, you said?
MEMBER TORTORA: Other than this Chesterfield Assoeiates.
PATRICIA MOORE ESQ: Yes. Mattituek Glass, Window & Glass,
sold, serviced, and installed.
MEMBER TORTORA: And how long did they uso that, until '88 or
al'le~?
PATRICIA MOORE ES(~: No, I'm.just saying that '88 is whe~ I have
rel'erenee that they were there.
CItAIRMAN: Were they there in '91, when you starting leasing?

Regular Meeting of Auly 24, 1996
Southold Town Board of Appeals
CHAIRMAN: That's the reason why t jumped in, in the middle of
this.
MEMBER TORTORA: That's what I was trying to do~ trying to get
the time frame in there, of whether it was discontinued and so on.
CflAiRMAN: I think we're trying to figure out is, if ihe
nouconforming use was continued or riel
PATRICIA MOORE ESQ: Right
SECRETARY LiNDA KOWALSKI: Mattituck Auto & Glass was a
business africa, with [elephone sales, right?
CHAIRMAN: And repair.
PATRICIA MOORE ESQ: And repair, and retail, Apparently their
description on their sign was, "Sales, Repairs for Automobile
Glass". Everything that.
SECI{ETARY L1NI)A KOWALSKt: Everything related to glass.
CIIA[RMAN: They did glass, mirrors, every, all kinds of glass
SECRETARY LINDA KOWALSKI: They replaced windows and glass.
PATRICIA MOORE ESQ: Right. But they did autos, they did
repairs. Essentially, they covered all the zoning criteria, like
retail, office~ you know.
MEMBER TORTORA: They were the continuing' nonconforming use.
PATRICIA MOORE Ese: Right, but the intent was never to
abandoned any use there that was retail or office. Based on what I
found as far as the history of the p~operty. It always been
mai~tained and continued, but that's been the intent of the
bnilding. The building really can't sustain anything other than a
commerc}sl rise there. A house is not a very (tape was changed).
t think you also have another alternative, which is the change to
anolheP nonconforming use, which is a less intensive use, based on
everyUfing you've heard about how he operates his business. So, it's
much better than if it were an aatomobi]e repair rental of vehicles
or auto sales or rental because, it's much less intensive. Sales and
rentals would imply repairs and ail the other thing that go along
with the selling of parts. So, like Mullen Motors. I'm just
tbiuking Mullen Motors, some of the other car places. There's a
certain amount of repair work that's done on the premises.
MEIV]BER TORTORA: When was that Rent A Wreck formed?
MR. W]LLSBY: The franchise?

MEMBER VILLA: Well, basically the question I had was that. It
seems like a short term thing, but if this gets approved, you,
Mr. DeFriest would buy this, and you in turn would go into a long
lerm lease with Budget Rent A Car.
PATRICIA MOORE ESQ: Right.
CttAIRMAN: Now, this is the only lease that exists on the px'operty,
except for the agreement you have with tile person that's renting the
r, ement block building?
SECRETARY LINDA KOWALSKI: There's another lease, right?
CIIAIRMAN: There's another lease.
SI,2CItETARY LINDA KOWALSKI: With the cement block buildiilg.
M[~. DEFRIEST: Right. I don't have a lease with him though either.
CJI'AIRMAN: It's month re month.
Mit. DEFRIEST: Yes.
SECRETARY LINDA KOWALSKI: It's oral.
MR. DEFRIEST: Yes.
CIlAiRMAN: So, this is lhe only lease that covers this entire piece
o[' property ~ight now, to your knowledge.
SECRETARY LINDA KOWALSKI: Tile only written lease.
CtlAIRMAN: The only written lease.
M[I,. DEFRIEST: Right,
MEMBER VILLA; Now do we have to address two uses on this one
piece of property.
SI£CItETARY LIRDA KOWALSKI: No, if it's five acres so.
CIIAIRMAN; No, we're going to draw a tine down snd say this is
A side, and this is B side, and that's it. Very easy, it's the way I
do it in everything that I deal with up West some.
PATRICIA MOORE ESQ: Slalom light
