SPECIAL MEETING
MARCH 28, 1981
A Special Meeting of the Southold Town Board of Appeals was
held on Saturday, March 28, 1981 at 9:30 o'clock a.m. at the
Southold Town Hall, Main Road, Southold, New York 11971. Each
of the Board members signed a Waiver of Notice of Meeting.
Present were: Charles Grigonis, Jr., Chairman; Robert J.
Douglass; Gerard P. Goehringer; and Joseph H. Sawicki. Absent
was: Serge Doyen, Jr. (Fishers Island).
The Chairman .called the meeting to order at 9:30 a.m. for
the purpose of deliberating and deciding Appeal No. PA-5, appli-
cation of George Sweeney, for which a public hearing was held
on March 12, 1981. Applicant requests a variance to the Flood
Damage Prevention Law of the Town of Southold, Sections 46-5
and 46-7 for permission to construct substantially an addition
and alterations to existing dwelling located in a V-4 Flood
Zone and known as 150 Mason Drive, Cutchogue, New York (County
Tax Map Item No. 1000-104-7-11).
The Board finds and determines as follows:
The lot in question contains approximately 40,500 square
feet in area, and has erected thereon a preexisting two-story
frame dwelling on a concrete slab foundation, within the 8-foot
elevation above mean sea level. The plot plan submitted to
the Board indicates that the location where the dwelling is to
be substantially improved has an elevation of the first floor
at 7.5 feet above mean sea level. The Flood Insurance Rate Map
(FIRM) as revised late 1980 indicates that the property is
located in a Zone A-4 with an elevation requirement of 8 feet.

technical evaluations; all relevant factors; all standards specified

46-15B, subdivisions (1) to (11), inclusive of the Code.
The Board further finds and determines that: (1) There is a
good and sufficient cause for the grant of this variance; (2)
A failure to grant the variance would result in exceptional undue
hardship to the applicants; (3) The grant of a variance will not
result in increased flood heights, or additional threats to public
safety, or extraordinary public expense, or create nuisances, or
cause fraudr or victimize the public, or conflict with existing
local laws or rules or regulations.
