Containing about 3.788 acres more or less. Any person desiring to be heard on the proposed amendment should appear at the time and place above specified. Dated: January 6, 1959. BY ORDER OF THE SO~THOLD TOWN BOARD RALPH P. BOOTH, To~ Clerk. ~UPERVISOR KLI PP: I have the application in this matter. The purp. se as outlined in the petition is a request for a change of zoning from "A~ Agricultural and Residential District to "M" Multiple Residence District. This matter was referred to the Southold Town Planning Board and I will read you the contents of the report: Gent lemen: This is to certify that the fellowing action was taken by the Seuthold Town Planning Board at its meet- lng December 16, 1958. In the matter of the petition of Warren Bittner for a change of zone from "A" Residential and Agricultural District to "M" Multiple Residence District certain real property located and bounded as follows: On the North by Long Island Sound about 200 feet; Easterly by land of Daisy Dodge about 660 feet; Southerly by the North Road about 251 feet; thence Westerly 129 feet and Southerly 100 feet by land now or formerly of .Vrooman and thence Westerly by land of Bangs, formerly of Hoffman about 560 feet; said premises being shown on annexed map and designated as "C" - 3.788 acres. The Planning Beard is familiar with the property and it is large enough to serve the purpose. There is no question as to whether additional motels can be Justified. All motels have done an outstanding business in 1958; therefore, it is the determination of the Planning Board to recommend to the Town Board approval of the change from "A" Residential and 5 Agricultural D~trict to "M" Multiple Residence District. Yours very truly JOHN WIGKHAM, Chairman Southold Town Planning Board. Now, at this time, is there any person who wishes to speak in favor of the granting of the relief asked for in the petition? FRANK J. McMANN, ESQ. (for the Petitioner): Supervisor, I appear on behalf of the applicant. I don't know that there is much that I can add to what the Town Board already knows. The location of the property is very close to the northerly end of Chapel Lane and it is almost directly across from two labor camps. The property on the south, the property on the west, a small parcel immediately adjoining on the west, is already zoned for motel. The property which also bounds the parcel in question on the west is owned by people by the name of Bangs, and immediately west of that is another sizeable parcel, which I believe is zoned for business. A comparatively short distance to the east, as your Zoning Map will show, there are two parcels, one on the south side of the north road, and one on the north side owned by the same person, which are zoned in the same manner as we seek to zone the present 6 parcel. The applicant applicants, at the present time, conduct a restaurant business at Centerport. They are respectable people. They are here today, and in the event that the Board desires to make any further inquiries they may d~ sc. Their intention is to erect first a six-unit motel and to increase that to probably by the same amount, and possibly again by another six units. This depends on ~he .extent of the business done, . and arrangements which they can make for financing further expansion. I am convinced that they are respectable people, and that they will maintain an orderly place, and that there will be no damage done to the value of the property in that vicini ry. SUPERVISOR KLIPP: Is there any other person present who wishes to be heard in favor of the grantin~ of the petition? ~. W~ BI~R: I am the person that Mr. McMann is representing, and I want the Board to feel certain that our intentions are to put up a motel of the same grade as Silver Sands and Somnd Shore. The. res taurant we own presen~v in Oenterport, Long Island is of that type place which would be similar to Olaudios, Porky's, or Sound View, and our intentions are to build in the 7 near future, a year or two from this point, as soon as my wife and I are able to acquire sufficient ~acking for it. SUPERVISOR KLI PP: Is there any other person who wishes to be heard in favor of? (ThePe was no response. ) SUPERVISOR KLIPP: If not, is there any person who wishes to be heard in oppositinn to? STANLEY OORWIN, ESQ., (Greenport): Mr. .~mprevisor and gentlemen, my name is Stanley Oorwin, and'I represent the adjacent landowner, Isabel Shannon, who owns property immediately on the east, which in the application are described as being now the property of Daisy Dodge. We are opposed to this application for several reasons. In the first place, the proposed amendment we believe unconstitutional, because it would constitute the grossest kind of spot zoning. The official report of the Planning Board does not cendone the contents contained in the petition. Nor does it determine the area affected as ~eacribed by Section 901 of the Town 2A Zoning Ordinance. The reasons given in the report.-, for approval by the Planning Board of the change do not have any relation to the purposes of the ordinance stated in the preamble. 8 The applicants have failed to set forth in their petition adequate reasons for the Board to grant the relief sought. The proposed change will not, regarded in the light of the entire ordinance, promote the health, safety, morals, and general welfare of the inhabitants of the Town of Southold, and with reasonable consideration, among other things, the most desirable use of the land peculiarly suitable for a particular use, and to conserve property values of the district in building and develop- ing in accordance with a well-considered plan. First of all, with respect to the premises themselves, I should like to call to the Board's attention, I am sure you are familiar with the situation, that the road frontage in this particular area is on a steep curve, and it is near a place where that curve is crossed by a dangerous intersection. If anything, it would increase the traffic coming on the highway from the adjacent lane, would connotatively increase the danger already in that area. With the exception of the property of the Eastern Suffolk Cooperative, which is a non- conforming use, the entire adjacent area is residential and agricultural. A number of new dwellings have recently 9 been erected on. a dozen or so locations to the east on the premises between the nighway and the Sound. These premises for which the application is made, are vacant. They were vacant at the time the premises were acquired by the applicant. Now, the Planning Board based its ap- proval of the all told that^the application for a change of zoning, I am mote Is have done an outstanding business in 1958, from this they conclude that additional motels are Justified without further explanation. They determine that the premises in question should be down-zoned. Now, this determination of the Planning Board is obviously arbitrary and capricious. It is unreasonable. If the same reasoning were to be applied to anyone who wanted a change in zone, it would be the same, because there was in the entire township a particular demand. Therefore, anyone , regardless of the size of their restaurant or their ability to arrange financing, are applying on the theory that the zoning should be granted. Now, such a determinatien strikes at the very reason for zoning. Generally relief is sought by the owner, and recommended by the Planning Board for the individual owner, and the welfare of the people of the Town is to be given primary consideration. Since the lO Planning Board did~ not give that consideration, it should not be granted. Mirst of all~ there is no issue of hardship. The public records indicate that the applicant acquired the premises then and they are now vacant after the zoning Ordinance went into effect. There is no issue of need as far as the Town is concerned, for a Multiple Residence use for these patti- cular premises. Granted that this area abounds as a motel area, and thru demand might exceed the supply, there is nothing before the Board that warrants these premises being rezoned. There is another point: the most desirable use for which the land of each district may be adapted. This is in the. preamble of the Ordinance, to be one of the considerations to be given in determining district bound- aries, and counsel would be hardpressed to find any need for a multiple residence district and in proximity of these premises as definmd'.in these ordinances. The premises are not unique to other premises for hundreds of yards east and west as far as location, suitability, similarity of the land in the neighborhood is concez,ned. There is no reason for treating this particular area any different than that on either side for a considerable distance. Likewise, you would have to strain to find that even a larger area could be used for the purpose permitted in a multiple district. That Sound Shore and Silver Sands are both in areas where the distance between the road and the water is much more limited than here, and both are practically similar to the Duck Point Motel. The land along the higher bluff, and from Orient and Mattituck, have always been devoted exclusively to private residential use where there has been any development at all. There are other places in the township where there was some rezoning to permit this use much better suited prescribed by this ordinance. I think the remarks I have made are apt. There is no difficulty to find the proper use for improvements that have long been established. A zoning commission does not have difficulty to locate industry alongside of a railroad track where there are existing stores in a business district there is no great problem. But there is a borderline area admittedly where we have a little more trouble, and if ~he property is used in such an area considerable weight should be given to protect the existing dwellings. 12 I know all of you know that right up and down to the east of this property there have been developed ~ust since the war a number of private residences. The trend up around there is in that direction. ~he~,e isn't any question abou~ it. The Board should take notice of it as an orderly manner. I realize Mr. McMann, in his remarks to the Board, certainly would not make any difference to the property values. ~oae are things about which reasonable people have a difference of opinion, but I am sure most reasonable people would realize property values would not be enhanced if this application were to be granted. Now, I am aware that in many instances this Board has, because of the 'fact that the Town was zoned very tightly in the beginning, where an applicant made'~'an application for ~ndividual lots, an amendment was granted on one parcel of land. The question, of spot zoning was raised, and nothing has been done. But that is no reason why every application should be granted that way, because they happen to think the situation is bad surrounding them and it tends to make it easier to grant each successive application~ .~ even though it may lack merit. There is no reason why 13 the Board should grant this application, and I submit for the reasons stated, and for others which I am sure you are aware of, it should be denied. THE CHAIRMAN: Is there any other person present who wishes to be heard in opposition to? C~here was no response.) MR. BITTNER, Sr.: I am the father of the young man who owns the property. I also have 63 acres on Sound View Avenue west of the Town Beach. There are certain things that this gentleman said, however, that should be brought to light, and a clearer viewpoint brought on them. The gentleman said he was opposed to spot zoning and that this was an instance of spot zoning. Spot zoning means where there is a single use of a piece of land that is completely surrounded by another type of zoning, and you make that a different type. Let it be clearly understood that this is not so in,his case. The adjoining property to the property that is being asked to be changed for zoning for a motel. So it is not spot zoning; it is an extension of the present zoning. The gentleman said that the road had a steep hill and a bend in it. The road has a slight hill and a bend 14 in it and the property would be too narrow for such use, the property is over 500 feet deep, and if the property of the Sound Shore is not"~to narrow, surely, and that is only about ~5 feet deep, certainly a piece of property 500 feet deep, it would be a great stretch of the imagination that it would be too narrow. The gent leman said that at the present time there is no need of any further change for business. I say that in a more broad- minded view point, if land has been used for agriculture for many years, there is nothing with progressive think- ing that you change that to business and thereby increase the income in the community. There is nothing objection- able to that. Now, in regard to the present property that the gentleman is speaking about, it must be remembered that when those people acquired that property they knew that there was a migrant camp across the way from it, and that 2b is not particularly a fine thing. The private property right opposite the migrant camp is there, over there only in terms of a residential section, but that is the case in this particular instance, and the migrant camp, even though it is a non-conforming use today, it was there prior to that time. I think, gentlemen, that anything that today is built to bring out more business to the 15 Town and bring out good wholeseme business is an. at~ traction to the Town, and certainly it would not hinder or harm the adjacent property in any way more than it is being harmed at the present time with a migrant camp right across the street. SUPERVISOR KLIPP: Is there any other person who wishes to be heard in fayer of or in opposition to the application? NR. McMANN: Mr. Supervisor, I snould like to Just suggest that while perhaps the Planning Board did not set forth in the greatest detail everything they found and perhaps everything that prompted their decision, it seems to me as a matter of common sense, that it is reasonable to assume that they surveyed the whole territory, the surro~unding territory, and that being so, it seems that their decision was entirely sound and reasonable. Nobody is protruding into a territory here, so-called virgin territory insofar as business or agriculture, residential or agriculture is concerned. ice is broken right around that immediate vicinity, and I am sure that when further consideration is given to the two ~abor camps across the street I am sure that all those things entered 16 into the consideration and Judgment and decision of the Planning Board. I say from personal interest, I can't help but feeling that their decision was sound. MR. WARREN BITTNEE: I wish to bring out some other points which my father and Mr. McMann already brought out. I wish to show you that we have given-more consideration to the neighborhood and the surrounding people than our opposition has, insofar as in the points that our opposition brought out are the points that we have s treesed to avoid. Now, first of all, the gentleman here said that the height of the land in front of us was objectionable for motel purposes. Well, obviously Mr. Corwin has not been on the land or the land adjacent to us. The one he thinks he is defending, so far as the land he is defending, comes down to the shore where the green grass is, and actually from there to the bank it is perfectly level. Now, if you were to take the average height from the beginning of our property to the end of our property, you would find the average height of the bluff is not more than 10 feet, some places being at sea level, some places being 15 to 20 ft. high. We chose this land for the purpose which is of such need in the Sound Shore Motel, it was free from hurricanes, i7 It will not be destroyed from waves coming in from severe storms. The next thing I wish to bring to your attention is the fact of the neighborhood. It has already been said that there is a camp across the street, and to the west there is a motel. So obviously you will have motels there. Then Just down the street and south of us is the Drive-In Theatre, which is clearly visible from all the pieces of property in this neighborhood. Now, certainly with a motel strip being there already ~f which there is over 1,000 ft. presently zoned in this area, and we are trying to have ~50 ft. rezoned for a motel, we have obviously chosen an area where you people intend to put motels. The next thing I wish to bring out', the changing of this land to motel is obviously of sentimental value. First of all, there is no home built in the area which has people here who are defending. They are opposed because they feel that a motel would be objectionable to them in fighting us. 'We, in turn, are trying to show you that we intend to build a motel there that would be a credit to the Town and run in the same manner as our 18 own restaurant which we have and which we would be proud to have anyone come to in Huntington and visit us. So I feel the opgosition has not any real opposition to their having the land changed from Residential to Motel. MRS. BITTNER: I believe that Mr. Corwin stated that the opposing party's lands would be downgraded and the value of the land would not be increased, but certainly having a beautiful resort motel on the land adjacent to this other land would certainly increase the value of those people's properties. . I believe that is all I want to say. I can't think of anything else at this time. MR. CORWIN: Mr. Supervisor, I ~ust feel that Mr. McMann's statement should not go unchallenged, when he referred to the implications apparent from the Zoning Board's conclusions. I think that exists only in his imagination, and that the lack of, if anything of effort and industry, and examination of neighboring property is apparent from the letter, far more from the letter, which would be Justification to him, which he reads into it. It is somewhat similar to say because the fish business has been not particularly good in the last couple of years Mr. Barth is giving up a very 19 profitable soda business because he wanted to help the fish business, or Mr. Cooper started a very profitable business and did not want to extend the yard simply because it is going good at the moment. MR. BITTNER, Sr.: I ~onder if Mr. Corwin is aware of .the fac-t that the Dong Island Chamber of Commerce is doing all they can to improve the resort business on this end of the Island. They are using the radio; they are using their bulletin, and in every way they are trying to increase that type of business for this end of the Island. MRS. BITTNER: Not cnly that which Mr. Bittner has said, but also I have heard in passing that the population of Greenport has gone down something like 200 to 500 and that is quite a lot, it seems to me. The Town of Greenport and Southold needs something to build up the town and not have the population dying off all the time. Not only that, I believe, I Just wanted to say that when we bought this land, or when we were thinking about buying it, it was in June 1958, that the piece of property west of us was at that time Just zoned motel. SUPERVISOR KLIPP: You see, I am not in a position to debate, but I am hearing a debate. 2O MR. CORWIN: I would like to point out that my client is a non-resident like these people. And, naturally, we are not publicly obligated, and we are not trying to stop the Long Island Association, or anyone else from coming into this Town and making something better of it. She is Just as sentimental about using her property for a private residence as they are for using their property for a motel. I 'don't think that is anything that this Board should take into consideration. MRS. BITTNER: It is not only a fact that we are not non-residents. The Bittners are residents in Southold. They have a home here and 63 acres of land. And not only that, some day I intend to have my home on that piece of land. MR. McMANN: Mr. Supervisor, may I add Just a word or two here. The party making application for the use of land for, we will say business purposes, although not seeking to be zoned for business, now, these things come up continually as you well know, and zoning was designed to protect generally areas in the Township. Now, this appears to me to be peculiarly a proposition where the application can be ~ranted without harm to anyone. 21 In other words, the owner proposing the application, no more harm could be done to her property than has already been done by the existence of the labor camps there. The damage that this motel, or the feared damage, cannot approach that. As I said before, it is not a new situation. We are not entering into a new situation; we are entering into a residential area that is completely residential. The damage has already been done. SUPERVISOR KLIPP: Is there any other person who wishes to be (There was no response. ) SUPERVISOR KLIPP: If not, I will close the hearing at this time for further deliberation and deteEnination of the Board.
