well in the application°

this variance is granted I will sell the lots and one house will
go up on one of the lots this spring°

50 fto lots.

but I bought in Southold instead.

T~E C~L~IRMAN: Is there anyone present who wishes to speaka~
against this application?

After investigation and inspection the Board finds that this
parcel, which waspurchased prior to Zoning, fronts on two streets.
The best division of this property to enable it to be utilized as
two lots is across the center~ leaving one lot of approximately
12,208 Sqo ft. of area and 102.02 ft. frontage, and the other with
approximately 11,965 ~qo ft. of area and 97.99 ft. frontage°
The area is comprised ofma~yundersized lots~ some with 50
ft. frontage. The filed map bounding this parcel to the east~
known as "Washington Heights" was originally laid out in 50
lots.
Southold Town Board of Appeals -3- February 14~ 1963
The Board finds that strict application of the Ordinance will
produce practical difficulties or unnecessary hardship; the hard-
ship ~eated is unique and would not be shared by all properties
alike in the immediate vicinity of this property and in the same
use district; and the variance does observe the spirit of the
Ordinance and will not change the character of the district°
On motion of Mr. Gillispie, seconded by Mr. ~igonis~ it was
RESOLVED that John DeAlbertis, Old Shipyard Lane, $outhold,
be granted permission to divide property into ~wo lots each contain-
ing less than the minimum area and one containing less than the

widths)

Lake Park" and the lot sizes were 50 ft. in width~ Several of the
lots were sold in their original size of 50 ft. in width~ some were

in conformity with the area. Th~ depth of the proposed lots will
be an average of approximately 252 feet.

produce practical difficulties or unnecessary hardship; th~hard-
ship created is unique and would not be shared by all properties
alike in the immediate vicinity of this property and in the same

and will not change the character of the district.
