2003 surgey prepared by ;Joseph A. Ingegno, L,S.
BASIS OF APPLICATION: Building Department's November 26, 2002 Notice of
Disapproval, citiPg Sections 10C~242A and 100-244. in its denial of a building permE to
const~ct e second~-fleor addition and e]tarafion to the dwelling with a setback on a single
sidey~rd at lessthan 10 feet and less than 25 feet far beth side yards.
FINDINGS OF FACT
The Zoning Board of Appeats held a public hearing on this application on May 15, 2003,
at which time written and ora evidence were presented, Based upon ail testimony,
documentation, personal inspection of the property, and ether evidence, the Zoning
Board finds the following tacls to be true and relevant:
AREA VARIANCE RELIEF REQUESTED: Applicant wishes to construct a secasd-stary
addition to her existing home, maintaining ~he existing easterly side yard at 4.6 feet at its
closes! point. The wester~j side yard is existing with variables at 10 feet at its closest
point and 15 feet to the west side of the foundation (exclusive of e)dsting stoop or shed).
REASONS FOR BOARD ACTION: On the basis of testimony presented, material
submitted and personal inspections, the Board makes the following findings:
1. Grant of the relief requested will not produce an undesirable change in the character
of the neighborhood or a detriment to nearby properties. The applicant has proposed to
e.~pand this one-sto~ residence by adding a second story, with the same dimensions as
the existing too[print. The overall height of the building will be increased by eight feet,
raising it from 16 feet to approximately 24 feet in height, The neighborhood is a
Page 2 - June 5, 2003
Ap~l. No. 5305 - Melissa Corwin
48.~-22 at Gmenport
developed residential area with other nonconforming parcels and buildings of similar
size. The addition of a second floor to this dwelling wiJi not adversely change the
character of the surrounding neighborhood.
2, The beeefit sought by the applicant cannot be achieved by some method, feasible for
the applier to pursue, other than an area 'variance. The applicant cannot create the
I[v~ng sp~c~ necessary for the family's needs without the construcfic~ at[owed th this
variance.
3. The relief granted is not substantial. The expansion of the building will be over the
exist~g first floor footprint, and the total building height after completion of the new
constru~on will not excaed~ the height [imitation allowed by the zoning COde. The lot
coverage will remain (presently about 14%},
4. The difficulty has not been self-created. The lot and dwelling sizes are
non~3r~orming, and the applicant has chosen to increase its size in height rather than
expanding a~:the sides or rest.
5. No evidence has been subm[ttad to suggest that the ;~repesed additions will have an
adverse impact on physical or envJrenmentel conditions in the neighborhood, The lot Js
located in a residentially developed neighborhood with numerous nonconforming
buildings, witho~ any outstanding environmer~al issues or concerns.
6. Grant of the requested variance is the m!,,3im~m aden neeessary and adequate to
enable the applicant to enjoy the benefit of e second-story addition, while preserving and
protecting the charac~r of the neighborhood and the health, safety and we]fare of the
community,
RESOLUTION OF THE BOARD: in considering ali of the above factors and applying the
balanc~r/g test under New York Town Law 267-B, motion was offered by Member
Goehdn~er, seconded by Member Tortora. and duly carhed, to
GRANT the Vadanca as applied for and shown on the plan prepared by R & R
Home Improvement dated 10-18-02 and with a fcotefint shown on the March 5.

FINDINGS OF: FACT
The Zoning Board of Appeals held a public hesdng on this application on May ~ 5, 2003,

conformity than the existing porch at +-15 ft. from the front iot line.
2, The benefit sought by the applicant cannot be achieved by come method, [cosibis for
~ipplicants to pursue, other than an area variance. The applicants wish to expand due to
the grsW[ng needs of the family. Due to the t)ght restraints Of the property the only
logical choice is to raise the roof tor a new second story over the existing footprint.

FINDINGS
1. The applicant has applied fora use and area varianco in order to expand the size
of its non-conforming restaurant located on the comer of North Sea Drive and
Kenney's Road.
2. The propeKy is. improved with a 2,860 square foot restaurant with small
bar/lounge/waiting area. According to the applicant, the restaurant presently has 74
dining seats and 16 bar/Iounge/~vaiting area seats.
3. The applicant seeks to add an additional 1,418 square feet. This would be a
49.5% increase to the existing building,
4. Under Section 100-243 the applicant could increase the size of its building by
35% or 42~c square feet "as of right." With Planning Board approval, the building
coutd be expanded'by 30% or 858 sqL~are feetwithout the need for a use variance.
~. Thus, the app icant is seeking a ustc var ance from this Board that would oermit
expansion of an additional 560 squa~'e~,o,ver what would be permitted with approval
from the Planning Board a~d without approval of this Board.
6. The applicant reeuests this addition_a! 560 square feet of ~'~o~ ;,,- ;,, ,-,~ - ~-
create bathrooms that are compliant ~ith the requirements of the Americans with
Disability Act; to increase the volume of business at the restaurant; and to improve
the appearance of the property by redoing the exterior of the building and
maintaining a mature ands~caoing plarr.
7. To obtain a use variance, an applicant must show that it cannot realize a
reasonable return on its p~perty if u~ed in compJiance with zen rig; that its alleged
hardship is unique; that the vadanse, if granted, would not alter the essential
character of the district or neighborho~)d~; and that the alleged hardship is not self-
created. In granting a use.' varance. {ha Board is obligated to grant the minimum
variance ~eemed necossa~y and adequate to address the applicant's unnecessary
hardship and at the same tree, preServe and protect the character of the
neighborhood.
8. Three public headngs were held en this application. The Board was presented
with substantial evidence and memoranda both in support and in opposition to the
application.
Page 3 - June 5~ 2003 -
AppL No. 5051 -Clef & Phil's Lobste~house
9. Based upon the record before [t and its ow~ personal observatk~ns and tam[lianty
with the property and neighborhood, the Board makes the following findings:
a. it is undisputed that the restaurant, located in a residential neighborhood,
is and has been a. non-cenforming use.
· b. the applicant has p~nted substantial evidence that it is not able to
realize a reasonab!e ret[tm from.the property withoat an expansion. Amorig other
evidence, the applicaht presen~ted a report from Es certified public accountant arid its
tax reton~s that show !bSt'the.propert~r has operated at a i~ss orat marginal prot'~
over the past several y~ars. A~ e~pan~lom woo[d permit 'addE ona tab eS ai~d'

Board fmcs th~ sne, Xpansiob of the a ~'eady non-conform n~ use [s warrantL-=d to
allow th~iappl~can~ to realize a re~sonabie return from tis prOper[y.
· ~. the Board finds that th~ applicant's plight ~s unique in this distri~, it is the

expansion of '~,f44 square feet resulting in the building having a total of 4,004
square feet.
e. To further ensure that the nature of the non-conforming use remains
uechanged, any recontigurst~on of the restaurant due to this expansion will be
required to limit the expansion of the seating capacity in the barJlounge/waiting area
to a maximum seating capacity of 23 seats to generally maintain existing accesso['y
use ratio between seats in the barJlognge~aiting area and dining seats. Thus, ifthe
dJnirtg seating capacity is enlarged to a ma~murn of 94 seats, the bar/lounge/'wa~ng
area seating qan be expanded to a~maximam capac'~y of 23 seats. Thta limi~on
will maintain the seating ratio that presently exists between bar/Iounge/wait~ngarea
and dining seating.
f. The Board finds that a total expansion of f,144 square fee~, coupled with
the limitation on the expansion of the number of seats in the dining and the
bar/lou~?,va~ting area will be the minimum variance necessary to alleviate the
applicants t3narTc~ hardshYp whi e at the same trine not adversely mpact on the
eun-ound'~ re~dentla ee[ghborhood. Th~pp ice'twill be ab e to either ach'eve ~r
come ver~ cldse to achieving the increased rsstSuraat seating [4 seeks and thus
increased'revenue it anticipates.
g. To ~u[~ther ensure that the nature of the use does not advemely change
and create nega~tiy~ impacts on the surrounding Yesidenfial community, the Board
finds that a I'm~tafion on the hours of operation is warranted, it appears that
correnfly the iast seating at the restaurant is generally at 8:30 p.m. The applicant
has requested ho~rs from 9:00 a.m. to 1:00 a.m. from Sunday through Thursday and
from 9:00 a.mI ~o 2;00 a.m', on FrkJays and Satu~ays. The hours sought are not
consistan[ web ~cae of the current use and w~t~ld dramatically and adversely
impact on the~Ra, J~tude ofthe surrounding residential area. The Board finds that ~
closing at 'i l:(/b'~,m, on Sundays, and on Mondays~hrough Thursdays at 1 ~:30 p.m.
and on .Fridays ~nd Saturdays ;at t:00 a.m. is conSistant with the current use of the
properbj and wig~ol:adversely impact on the reside~l neighborhood.
h. The appJJcant's hardship is not self-created. The restaurant has been in
existence f0:r rpany years. The need to upgrade the premises ~o comply with the.
requiremen~ qTtl~e A.D;A., [~impreve its aesthetics, a~d to generate mere revenue
are outg~owths~df t~e pre-exi~ng nature of the use.
10. The are~ variance sought from the front yard set back: requirements for the:
extansior of the building does not increase but maintains the Cu~Tent front yard set
bac~ of the existing building, Thus, the grant of the area vadance will not result in
any signh~caet change to existing character of the neighborhood, nor will it have any
adverse affect on the physical or environmental nature of the area. Since a use
vadanca permitting the expansion of the building is warranted, the feasible means of
expanding the premises is by extending the existing building line. Thua them is no
meaningful alternative hem to the
need ~rthe Variance is a0t eslf-cr~ated.
11~. Based upon these, findings and criteria, the Board grants a front set back
vadaaca, ata ~[nimu~ of 2~J feet, maiota ning the exist ng building line. and gra~,s a
co~d~tio~al use variance

Member,Odandd,~,~nd'~uly carried, to:

BASIS OF APPLICATION; Building Department's April 29~ 2003 Notice of Disapproval,
citing Sections 100.242A and 100-244 in its denial of a building permit application to
construct a perch addition to the dwelling due to insufficient side yard setbacks and tat
coverage in excess, of the code limitation of 20% of the tot area.
FINDINGS OF FACT
The Zoning Board of Appeals held a pub!ic hearing on this appliceiton onMay 15, 2003, at
which time written ant oral evidence were presented. Based upon ail testimony,
documentation, personal inspection of the preped, y, and other evidence, the Zoning Board
finds the following facts to be true and relevant:
AREA VARIANCE RELIEF REQUESTED: Applicants wish to construct a porch consisting
ofapermanen[roofoverapo~onoftheprepoaeddeckaddif~onhehindthedwelling. The
setbacks for the proposed porch area will remain as applied in ZBA AppL No. 5086
rendered May 16, 2002 at 9'6" on one side and 10 ft. on the opposite (northerly) side, at its
closest oointe, and at a maximum of 23.8% lot coverage.
REASONS FOR BOARD ACTION: On the ~asis of testimony presented, materials
submEted and personal inspections, the Board makes the foltewing findings:
1. The granting of these variances wH[ not produce an undeskab[e change in the character
of the neighborhood, or be a detriment to nearby properties, because the app[icante see[<
to construct a covere~ ~orch, with an approximately 450 sq. ft. increase in the building
foo~-pdnt to this single family roa~dence. In a prior applicatioa, #5086. this applicant was
the granted variancas necessary to construct a deck of identical size anc slacement
35.-5-13 at GmenpOr~
relation to the existing building, The addition of a roof (and a possible future screen
enclosure) to the previously approved constru~on will not create any detrimental changes
to the neighborhood.
2. The bepefit sought .by the applicant cannot be achieved by some other
method, feasible for the appiicanl: to pursue, other than an area variance,
because in the_prior application #5086, the applicants requested vadancas to
build a deck, not a~, porch, withput a full understanding of the code definitions
b~,,tw, e. en the two s~:uotures. The applicarlts acknowledged, and are requesting
~llef fTofl3 the condEion <.~ntainea th,the prior approval of the board which stated:
That the deck remain open to the sky.~
3. The. requested rsJief is not sub~stsnfial because the only area affected by the
~[ranti~cj e~:the t~ewv~ria~3ces is t~e same footprint area granted Appi. No. 5086.
Total ]~t cave.ge ~ll'~h~ain identical to tl~e prio]: relief approved, which Js
4. The proposed variances will nat have an adverse effect or Jrt .)act on the physical or
environmental conditions in the netghborffeed, or district because of the sinai! scale of
such p~-opesaL
5. The difficulty for the applicants is se[f-created by a previous misunderstanding of Town
Code.
6. The relief offered to this applicant is the minimum determined ~ecessary for this
applicant to enjoy the benefit of a covered porch, while at the same time protec[ing and
preserving the character of the ne)ghbarhood, as well as the health, safety, and welfare of
the sarroueding community.
