SCTM No. 1000-94-1-12.1.
ELIZABETH AND ALLEN JEREMIAS/SOUNDHAUS HOLDINGS, LLC #7949 - Request for
Variances from Article XXII, Section 280-116A(l); Article XXIII, Section 280-124; and the Building
Inspector's May 22, 2024 Notice of Disapproval based on an application for a permit to construct a deck
and raised patio addition to include a hot tub and swimming pool addition to an existing single family
dwelling and to legalize the expansion of a stair platform located seaward of the top of the bluff; 1)
proposed construction located less than the code required 100 feet from the top of the bluff; 2) "as-built"
platform located seaward of the top of the bluff, not permitted; 3) proposed construction located less
than the code required minimum side yard setback of 20 feet; located at: 2635 Soundview Avenue, (Adj.
to the Long Island Sound) Mattituck,NY. SCTM No. 1000-94-1-12.1.
The proposed action has been reviewed to Chapter 268, Waterfront Consistency Review of the Town of
Southold Town Code and the Local Waterfront Revitalization Program (LWRP) Policy Standards.
Based upon the information provided on the LWRP Consistency Assessment Form submitted to this
department, as well as the records available to me, the proposal is recommended as INCONSISTENT
with the below LWRP policies.
Policy 1. Foster a pattern of development in the Town of Southold that enhances community character,
preserves open space, makes efficient use of infrastructure, makes beneficial use of a coastal
location, and minimizes adverse effects of development.
The as-built structure was constructed without obtaining the required permits. As-built
development that does not reinforce the traditional land use pattern of the Town of Southold
does not support this policy.
Policy 4.1. Minimize losses of human life and structures from flooding and erosion hazards.
A. Minimize potential loss and damage by locating development and structures away from
flooding and erosion hazards.
The proposed construction is located within 52.3', and the two as-built platforms are located
seaward of the top of the bluff.
The lower platform is not expected to meet Chapter 275 Wetlands and Shorelines section of
the Town Code where platforms associated with stairs may not be larger than 100 square feet.
It is recommended that the exact measurements of the two platforms are required for
the record.
If the action is approved reestablish the 15' wide non-turf buffer the Board of Trustees required in
their 2007 permit.
Relocate the drywell further from the bluff.
Pursuant to Chapter 268, the Southold Town Zoning Board of Appeals shall consider this
recommendation in preparing its written determination regarding the consistency of the proposed action.
