THE CHAIRMAN: Is there anyone present who wishes to speak against this application? (There was no response.) MR. ROSENBERG: Is this the only access to the lot? MI~. HOWARD TERRY: Yes, it is. The Board finds strict application of the Ordinance will produce practical difficulties or unnecessary hardship because this is the only possible access to the lot in question. The hardship created is unique and would not be shared by all properties alike in the immediate vicinity of this property and in the same use district because this is one of the shoEtest private roads in the area and the lot in question is the furthermost lot on the road. The variance does observe the spirit of the Ordinance and would not change the character of the district because this lot is of sufficient size and a dwelling in keeping with the area will be erected, therefore On motion of Mr. Gillispie, seconded by Mr. Bergen, it was RESOLVED that Harold R. Reeve & Sons~ a/c John & Marie Kloppenberg be granted recognition of access in accordance with State of New York Town Law~ Section 280A~ to property on the north side Cedar Lane, Mattituck.

Belfi appeared before the Board of Appeals to file for a variance to the Zoning Ordinance to reduce his easterly side yard. ~r. Belfi erected an addition to his house 11'3~' from the side yard rather than 15 ft. as required by the Zoning Ordinance.
