(E.D.S.T.), upon application of Fishers Island Fire District, Fishers Island, New York, for a special exception mn accordance with the Zoning Ordinance, Article III~ Section 306, for permission to erect a new fire house with insufficient front yard setbacks on a corner lot. Location of property: At the intersection of Equestrian Avenue and Athol Crescent, Fishers Island, New York, bounded north by West End Land Company, east by Athol Crescent, south by Equestrian Avenue and Athol Crescent, and west by Equestrian Avenue. Fee paid $5.00. Southold Town Board of Appeals -2- October 10~ 1963 The Chairman opened the hearing by reading application for a special exception~ legal notice of hearing~ affidavit attesting to its publication in the official newspaper and notice to the applicant. ThE CHAIRMAN: Is there anyone present who wishes to speak for this application? MI{. HOWARD TERRY: AS County Fire Coordinator I feel this is a very good move. FLR. SERGE DOYEN, JR.: This is the most logical location for the fire house and the fire house is needed. (The Board discussed with Mr. Doyen the insurance rate on Fishers Island.) TP~E CPIAIRM/~N: Is there anyone present who wishes to speak against this application? (There was no response.) After investigation and inspection the Board approves of the proposed location for the new fire house at the inter- section of Equestrian Avenue and Athol Crescent. The reduced setback of 16 ft. on Athol Crescent and 20 ft. on'Equestrian Avenue is found to be sufficient for the proposed use. The premises slopes sharply to the north and the area consists of low marsh land making it impossible to locate the building on any other portion of the property~ therefore the building must be kept as far to the south as possible. This reduced setback is found to be generally satisfactory due to the fact this is a fire house and rapid exit by fire equipment in the event of a fire alarm is extremely important. The Boar d finds that the public convenience and welfare and justice will be served and the legally established or permitted use of neighborhood property and adjoining use districts will not be permanently or substantially injured and the spirit of the Ordinance will be observed. On motion of Mro Gillispie, seconded by ~Lr. Bergen, it Southoid Town Board of Appeals -3- October 10, 1963 RESOLVED that Fishers Island Fire District be granted permission to erect a new fire house at~~ the intersection of Equestrian Av. enue and Athol Crescent~ Fishers Island, New York with a setback of 16 feet from Athol Crescent and 20 ft. from Equestrian Avenue. vote of the Board: Ayes:- Mr. Gillispie~ Mr. Bergen, and Mr. Doyen. PUBLIC HEARING: Appeal No. 605 - 7:45 P.M. (E.D.S.T.), upon application of Robert Hyatt, Southold, New York, a/c Madeline Nicot, Fie~twood Road, Cutchogue~ New York~ for a variance in accordance with the Zoning Ordinance, Article III~ Section 300, Subsection 7, for permission to erect a detached garage in the front yard area. Location of property: east side Fleetwood Road, Cutchogue, New York, bounded north by W. A. Kennedy, east by Creek, south by W. A. Bangert~ and west by Fleetwood Road. Fee paid $5.00. The Chairman opened the hearing by reading application for a variance, legal notice of hearing, affidavit attesting to its pub~ion in the official newspaper and notice to the applicant. THE CHAIRMAN: Is there anyone present who wishes to speak for this application? MR. ROBERT HYATT: I am the builder. TME. CHAIRi~AN: Is there anyone present who wishes to speak against this application? (There was no response.) MR. HYATT: This garage will be placed where the old foundation of a prior existing garage was located. The old garage was removed 3~ or 4 years ago because of wind damage. Southold Town Board of Appeals -4- October 10~ 1963 THE CHAIRMAn-: Will there be some kind of construction to prevent a car going through the rear wall of the garage and over the bank? MR. HYATT: The garage will have a concrete block wall. (The type of construction of the proposed garage was discussed. THE CHAIRMAN: Are there any other questions? (There was n? response.) After investigation and inspection the Board finds that the proposed location of the garage is the best location possible on the property due to the fact the lot slopes steeply from the road to the water. ~ne applicant proposes to locate the garage on the most level portion of the lot. The proposed garage will be located on the foundation of a garage which wasremoved about four years ago because of wind damage. There are other garages in this area with similar or less setback. The only feasible ~ntrance to this garage would be from Fleetwood Road. The Board finds that strict application of the Ordinanc~ will produce practical difficulties or unnecessary hardship; 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; 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. Bergen~ it was RESOLVED that Robert Hyatt be granted permission to erect a private detached garage on the property of Madeline Nicol, east side Fleetwood Road, Cutchogue, New York, with a setback of approximately 18 feet from Fleetwood Road and approximately one foot from the northerly property line. vote of the Board: Ayes:- Mr. Gillispme, Mr. Bergen, and Mr. Doyen.

Harry Lister, WestRoad, Cutchogue~ New York~ for a special exception in accordance with the Zoning Ordinance, Article IIIA, Section 354 and Section 358, for permission to maintain an accessory building with insufficient frontage setback and rear yard setback. Location of property: south side West Road, Cutchogue, New York, bounded north by West Road~ east bye. Nagle, south by Peconic Bay, and west by Creek. Fee paid $5,00. The Chairman opened the hearing by reading application for a special exception, legal notice of hearing~ affidavit attest- ing to its publication in the official newst~per and notice to the applicant. THE CHAIRMAN: Is there anyone present who wishes to speak for this application? RICHARD CRON, ESQ.: Ail you can see of this building is about 2 feet. There is a fence and hedges in the line of vision. Mr.~rLister leases the marina to the North Fork Shipyard for strictly a marina operation but reserves the dock area in this ~icinity for his own boat. THE CHAIRYL~N: Is there anyone else present who wishes to speak for this application? (There was no response. ) THE CHAIRMAN: Is there anyone present who wishes to speak against this application? (There was no response.) Southotd To'~n Board of Appeals -6- October 10~ 1963 THE CHAIRMAzN: The word "temporary" is used here. How long does the lease run? MR. CRON: For one year with an option for five years with two renewals. There is no intention that this will be a permanent installation. He just'needs it for the present to house articles used on his boat. THE CHAIRMAN: Are there any other questions? XThere was no response.) After i~vestigation and inspection the Board finds that this is a temporary accessory building for non-commercial purposes and is restricted to the personal use of the applicant Mr. W. Harry-Lister. This structure which was erected is a necessary incidental use in the "M" Multiple Residence Zone,~ however the restriction applying to Mr. Lister is for the protection 6f neighbors in the future in the event Mr. Lister should sell or lease the premises described in the application. The location chosen is the only obvious and useful one for the applicant since it is at the dock area where his boat is moored and the building is used for the storage of his boating equipment. The Board finds that the public convenience and welfare and justice will be served and the legally established or permitted use of neighborhood property and adjoining use districts will not be permanently or substantially injured and the spirit of the Ordinance will be observed. On motion of Mro Gillispie, seconded by Mr. Bergen~ it was RESOLVED that Wo Harry Lister be granted permission to erect and maintain a temporary utility or accessory building on his multiple residence premises located on the south side of~West Road, Cutchogue, New York~ approximately 12 ft. 6 in. from West Road and approximately 12 ft. from the but~head or rear line.
