SUFFOLK CO UNITY ADMINISTRATIVE ODE: This application was ref erred as required under the Suffolk County Administrative Code SectiorIs A 1 -14 to 23,and the Suffolk County Department of Planning issued it:-reply dated April 7,2023, stating that this application is considered a matter for local determination as there appears to be no significant county-wide or inter-community impact. f_.. ' ' I EFEI M I _A TION: The relief, permit, or interpretation requested in this application is listed under the Minor Actions exempt list and is not subject to review under Chapter 268. TOWN OF SOUTI�1_ LD PLA�NNfN BOARD: The application was referred to the Town of Southold Planning Board for comment who issued its replies dated July 18, 2023 and July 25, 2023 indicating that this site and the submitted `as-built' plan do not comply with the site plan that was approved by the Planning Board in 2006. Subsequent to the ZBA decision #5759 issued in 2005, the Planning Board approved a site plan in 2006 for the construction of a 1,759 square feet auto repair shop and associated site improvements including but not limited to vehicle circulation including a driveway to Route 25,parking stalls,drainage and landscaping with th ZBA imposed condition##6 of the removal of a`temporary' portable building(tent,subject of thisapplication). Based on historical aerial photographs, it appears that a 1,157 square feet addition was added on to `existing building#2' approved in 2006 without proper permits between 2015 and 2016. The subject site and the submitted as-built plan is not in compliance with the approved 2006 site plan. Also, there' are inaccurate dimensions for building setbacks shown on the as-built plan provided;and the as-built site plan creates the following concerns: i. "Existing Building #2" was approved at 1,759 square feet and is currently +/-2,916 square feet. Because of this increase in building area,the aisle width behind the nearby parking stalls no longer meets the Town Code requirement. There may be the potential to decrease the number of approved/striped packing stalls on the site and allow for Code compliant aisle width to maintain safe Page 2,August 3,2023 #78001 RQA Properties, LLC SCTM No. 1000-102-3-1 site circulation. This could potentially be achieved through an amended site plan application review by the Planning Board. ii. The front parking stalls and the access driveway to the south have been modified since the approved plan and are not compliant with the Town Code. Similar to the rear parking, these front-parking stalls may be able to be reconfigured to meet Town Code through the amended site plan process. This particular parcel is located on NY State Route 25; however, it is also adjacent to multiple residential properties. The land Use and Zoning Chapter (Goal 7) and the Economic Development Chapter of the Southold Town Comprehensive Plan encourage the growth of existing business while balancing economic prosperity with maintaining a high quality of life,the environment and the unique character of the commun**t ies. Absent any nuisance DO Ise., odor or traffic complaints from the neighborhood, this business appears to be consistent with the Comprehensive Plan by achieving that balance. PROPERTY FACTS/DESCRIPTION: The subject, non-conforming, rectangular-shaped, 37,421 square feet, .86 acre parcel located in the R-40 Residential Zoning District measures 180.62 feet along Main Road, also known as, State Route 25, then runs south 200 feet along Fleet Neck Road (also known as Pequash Avenue) then runs west 202.64 feet(202.67 feet per deed)along a residentially developed lot then runs north 174.89 feet(175 feet per deed) back to the roadway'y along a second residentiaIly developed lot. The property is developed with a one-story wood frame building (office), a one-story concrete block and brick building with a metal and frame building attached by `breezeway', a portable building on concrete stab, a meta shed, a metal trailer shed, a smaller portable building on concrete slab, a small wood frame shed and a small metal shed, substantial asphalt parking and driveways, RCA (recycled concrete aggregate)parking areas,extensive stockage fencing around the perimeter of the property and two wood signs as shown on the survey prepared by John T.Metzger, Licensed Land Surveyor,and dated May 22,2018. C7 BASIS OF APPLICATION: Request for Variances from Article XXIII, Section 280-123A and the Building Inspector's March 15, 2023 Notice of Disapproval based on an application fora permit to legalize several"as built" additions and accessory structures at an existing auto body repair business 1) A nonconforming building containing a nonconforming use shall not be enlarged,or structurally altered or moved,unless the use of such building is changed to a conforming use; 2)"as built" improvements results in increase in floor area greater than prior alternative relief that was previously granted in ZBA File No. 5759 dated December 27, 2005; located at: 29950 Main Road, Cutchogue,NY. SCTM No. 1000-102-3-1. RELIEF REQL.ESTED: The applicant requests variances to legalize several temporary structures and sheds including: a metal shed measuring 9.8 feet by 12 feet,a wood-frame shed measuring 8.2 feet by 12.1 feet,a'portable' building on concrete slab measuring 23.2 feet by 20.2 feet, a metal trailer shed measuring 26.5 feet by 8 feet and larger temporary"portable"structure measuring 25 feet by 50 feet,and to legalize the"as built"j addition measuring 24 feet by 48.2 feet, to a previously approved (see ZBA file #5759) addition which originally measured 36 feet by 48.2 feet, allowing a 25% increase of floor area. The application illustrates that in the request for approval of the'as built' addition to the principal building, a yield of an overall increase of 65.8% over the relief granted in ZBA file #5759 will be established. ADDITIONAI., INFORIVIATION: The applicant is the beneficiary of several Zoning Board of Appeals variances: #856 dated 1966 -ff 1964 dated 1974 #1983 dated 1974 #2.384 dated 1978 93907 dated 1990 45759 dated 2005 Zoning at the subject parcel was changed from B-I Business to R40 Residential in 1989 while the applicant (now owner)was a tenant on the property,,and the continuous use of the site,commercially is well established and known 1- -fects to the neighborhood or the within the community. There have beert no known complaints or adverse el community in general. The app[icant's property is well screened and maintained y with low site traffic,no obnoxious odors and little impact on the neighborhood. I 1 Page 3,August 3,2023 #78007 RQA Properties,LLC SCTM No. 1000-102-3-1 The applicant provided a site plan, labeled S-1;a floor plan, labeled A-1,and a floor plan/image of the larger tent on slab, labeled A-2 prepared by Mark Kevin Schwartz,Registered Architect and dated March 9, 2023. The applicant states that total lot coverage calculation for the subject parcel is 7,009.7 square feet or 1 .6% lot coverage where 20% lot coverage is the ma i g mum allowed by Code. The applicant also provided a statement titled; Zoning Board History with the Property,which outlines the applieantxs opinion that the property was originally a Bsso P as station, re-19 7 with a detailed description of all uses and Beard relief granted, through the change of g Zone, to the present use as an autornotive repairs shop as granted in ZBA file #5759 which allowed for the non- 'conforming use expansion of the principal building by 25%with various conditions,including 46,the removal of the P larger`temporary' structure. The applicant has an open building perrnit,#Z-33712,dated June 17,2009,for which they now seek a Certificate of Occupancy, along with the recognition and legalization of the various additional improvements not included in the site plan as approved by the Town of Southold Planning Board. During the Public Hearing the applicant acknowledged that they extended the garage building without the benefit of a building permit and in direct conflict with the ZBA rel ief granted in file#5759,and also in conflict with the Planning Beard Approved site plan, of 2006. while not a formally a ►endcd application, the applicant stated that they will pP remove the five smaller shed/storage trailers. They did not indicate whether or not they would be willing to remove the larger "portable' tent on concrete slab, which was conditioned to be removed under the prior Boards decision in g 2005. No member of the public or an immediate neighbor spoke in favor of or against this application. } FINDINGS OF FACE"/ REASONS FOR BOARD ACTION: The Zoning Board of Appeals held a public hearing on this application yin July 6 at which time written and oral evidence were presented. Based upon all testimony, documentation,personal inspection of the property and surrounding neighborhood,and other evidence,the Zoning Board finds the following facts to be true and relevant and makes the following findings: 1. Town Law 67-b(3)(b)(i . Grant of the variance to allow the expansion of the as--built garage structure, an overall increase of 65')%over the granted increase of 25%,will not produce an undesirable change in the character of the neighborhood or a detriment to nearby properties as the site is well-screened with mature landscaping, conditioned in the prior relief granted and the site plan approved by the Planning Board in the prior appeai. Furthermore,extensive fencing exists which further shields the site from area residences,the roadway and passersby. Grant of relief to allow the larger`tent' portable structure on concrete slab to remain will however be a detriment to the community and adversely alter the character of the neighborhood and nearby properties. This temporary structure was previously conditioned to be removed in ZBA file 45759 and is also supported by the approved site plan, as P y sanctioned by the Town of Southold planning Board in 2006. 2. Town Law 2 7-b 3 b 2 , The benefit sought by the applicant can be achieved by some method, feasible for the applicant icant to pursue,other titan an area variance. The applicant can comp with the previous relief granted ii�t Pp" P . ZBA file#5759 and in the approved site plan by the Town of Southold Planning Board and. maintain a functioning busine ss.All contained in an as built addition that is 25%greater than the original footprint of the principal building, while removing multiple sheds/trailers and the large `tent' portable structure on concrete slab. 3. Town Law 67-b 3 l . The variances granted herein are mathematically substantial,representing 65% greater relief from the code than the prior 25%relieffrom the code, granted is 2005. However, it would be an unnecessary hardship to require the applicant to remove the 24 feet by 48.2 feet addition to the masonry structure 1 Page 4,August 3,2023 978001)RQA Properties,LLC SCTM No. 1000-102-3-1 prevkously granted, in light of no adverse conditions discovered as part of this application. Kelative to maintaining the tai-ge 'tent'portable structure on concrete slab, 1 t wou Id be 100% i-e I lef from the code as th is structure was conditioned to be removed from the site as part of relief granted in ZBA file#5759 and the Town of Southold approved site plan of 2006. 4. Town Law U67-WILb)(4). Evidence has been submitted to suggest that a variance in this residential community will have an adverse impact on the physical or environmental conditions in the neighborhood. The applicant must comply with Chapter 236 of the Town"s Storm Water INIanagement Code and seek approval from the 1'o n of Southold Planning Board for an updatedlamended site plan, correcting parking and on-site circulation prDblems discovered as part-of this application. 5. Town Law_§267-b(3)(_b The difficulty has been self-created. The applicant publicly stated that they made file site improvements without the benefit of a building pewit and in contravention of the relief granted in ZBA fi #5759 and the 2006 Town of Southold approved site plan. Furthermore,the applicant purchased the parcel after the Zoning Code was in effect and it is presumed that the applicant had actual or constructive knowledge of the limitations on the use of the parcel under the Zoning Code in effect prior to or at the time of purchase. 6. Town Law§267-b. Grant of the requested relief, maintaining the "as built' masonry addition to the auto repair shop,,measuring 24 feet b mi y 48.2 feet, is the minimum action necessary and adequate to enable the applict to enjoy the benefit of an expanded, non-conforming business use in the R40 Residential Zoning District while preserving and protecting the character of the neighborhood and the health, safety and welfare of the conim unity. Grant of the requested relief relative to maintaining the large 'tcnt' portable structure on concrete slab is not the min'IMLIrn action necessary and adequate to enable the applicant to enjoy the benefit of an expanded,non-conforming business use in the R40 Residential Zoning District,while preserving and protecting the character of the neighborhood and the health,, safety and welfare of the community. RESOLUTION— OF THE BOARD: In considering all of the above factors and applying the balancing test under New York Town Law 267-B,motion was offered by Member Planamento,seconded by Member Dantes,and duty carried, to GRANT the variance to maintain the 'as-built' masonry addition to an auto body shop, measuring 24 feet by 48.2 - feet, as applied for, and DENY the request to maintaifl the large 'tent' portable stru�..-ture on concrete slab, all as I shown on Site Plan., labeled S-1; a floor plan, labeled A-1, and a floor plaii/iniage of the larger tent on slab., labeled A-2 prepared by Mark Kevin Schwartz, Registered Architect, and dated March 9,2023.

BASIS OF APPLICATION: Building Inspector's May 26, 2005 Notice of Disapproval concerning a permit to construct a new building, as part of an existing auto body sharp. The reason stated in the Notice of Disapproval is that a new building on this nonconforming 37,447 square foot lot, in this R-40 Low-Density Residential Zone District, is not a permitted use, citing section 100-241 A which reads, "nonconforming uses shall not be enlarged altered, extended, reconstructed or restored or placed on a different portion of the lot or parcel of land occupied by such use on the effective date of this chapter, nor shall any external evidence of such use be increased by any means whatsoever." PROPERTY FACTS: The applicant's 37,447 square foot parcel has 208.17 feet along the south side of NYS Route 25 (Main Road), and 200 feet along the west side of Pequash Avenue, in cutchogue. The property is improved with a single-story 597 sq. ft. building rented by a real estate office, a single-story concrete block building occupied by the applicant's auto body repair service business, two detached storage sheds, and temporary canvas tent (portable structure),as shown on the August 3,2004 survey,revised October 12,2004 by John C. Ehlers, L.S. FINDINGS OF FACT The applicant's business is located in the main building consisting of 1620 sq. ft. (36" x 481) of enclosed floor space, and constructed of cinder block and wood. The applicant rented the building and most of the lot since about 1988 (15 years) with a tenant liability policy as a garage man (auto body repair business) until 2004. The property was re-zoned by the Town during 1989 from business to Residential R-40, while the applicant continued the nonconforming business occupancy; the real estate office nonconforming use also continued until the present time. On 10/25104, the applicant purchased the premises and changed and expanded the insurance plan from tenant's liability to owner liability. In ,January 2005 the applicant received written notice from the insurance company regarding safety equipment and other requirements related to the auto body repair business activities and buildings to be insured. The installation of a new spray booth was required and is within one of the front bays of the main building. Other changes were requested by the insurance company, such as cleaning up of the parking area,walkways, and stairway clearances)for continued liability coverage,which has been completed by the applicant. The applicant proposes to relocate two out of the five existing work bays from the existing 1620 sq. ft., one-story building (36 ft. x 45 ft building size), and not using a third bay in the front of the building. The applicant also proposes to discontinue a large area used outdoors close to the main building for auto body repairs, and to remove the temporary, portable structure. The remaining two work bays located at the rear of the main building will continue, and the front access to the work areas will be blocked off to relocate access for vehicles from the rear. Page 2 of 5 ZM File No.5759—RQA and R. Bozsyna CTM 102-3-1 As a result of the required purchase of the self-contained metal spray booth and mandates of the insurance industry, the applicant proposes to move the auto-body repair activities (from two front bays) into a proposed 36.5' x 48.21 metal building as a separate structure, 16.5 feet from the westerly lot line, and 52 feet south of NYS Route 25 (Main Road). The new building will be 37 feet away from the main service building, and larger In floor area and height than the main service building. The new construction would provide additional dry space related to the applicant's auto body and paint spraying activities, and would increase productivity and efficiency, while having an economic benefit that would allow the business to continue with the increased costs of operations. The spray booth is a very large unit which takes up the floor area of at least one bay. The spray booth is a dry use and must be enclosed within a building, meeting strict standards for fire, emissions, OSHA, and other mandated requirements. The emissions will be about 99% covered, whereas recently it has been going up through the chimney and outdoors. The air will be drawn into a filtering system and converted into a solid compound, which will then be disposed of properly, as opposed to the present containment system. As the paint is sprayed, the air blows onto the floor and is filtered to keep the environments contained before going into the exhaust and outside. The applicant already purchased a new 1759 sq. ft. pre-cut, metal building to keep costs down and planned to move ahead with construction as soon as possible. In the interim the applicant placed a 900+- sq. ft. temporary, canvas structure (tent) to keep the business-related activities moving, while applying for permits to erect the now building. The 1759 square foot size of the now building, as requested by applicant, is a 72% increase of the existing total building floor area of 2,427+-square feet at the site now (1620, 597,80, 130 = 2427+- sq.It.), exclusive of the temporary portable tent area to be removed. The Building Inspector's Notice of Disapproval cites Section 100-241A pertaining to a now building proposed for a nonconforming use, citing the reason that an auto body shop is not a permitted use in this R-40 Residential Zone District, Under the circumstances and the fact that the existing business uses have continued for many years, the property does not qualify for a use variance under Section 100-241. The Board recognizes the difficulties created as a result of new insurance standards and laws, and addresses area variance relief under Section 100-243 of the Zoning Code, providing for floor area expansion for the applicant's nonconforming business. Zoning Code§100-243 reads as follows: A. A nonconforming building containing a nonconforming use shall not be enlarged, reconstructed or structurally altered or moved,except as set forth below, unless the use of such building Is changed to a conforming use. (1) Nonresidential uses: (a) Nothing in this article shall be deemed to prevent the remodeling, reconstruction or enlargement of a nonconforming or conforming nonresidential building with a nonconforming nonresidential use or construction of an addition to existing buildings or additional building on the promises,so long as said Increase in size of the buildings created by enlargement of the existing buildings or structures or by the construction of a now and separate building or structure does not result In an Increase, in the overall building footprint(s) of more than 15%, except that said increase shall not exceed the applicable maximum lot coverage.In addition,all other setback and area requirements shall apply. (b) Nothing In this article shall be deemed to prevent the remodeling, reconstruction or enlargement of a nonconforming or conforming nonresidential building with a nonconforming use or construction of an addition to existing building(s) o' a ti2nal di building on the I remises. s Iona as said ingreass In size of the building(s) created by anlar ant of the p existIna buildillils or structures orb the construction of a now and separate building or structure d2gs not result in an increase in the overall building footprint(s) of more than 30% excp2t that said incroase shall not exceed, the aloplicable MRximum lot covarage gndall other setback and area r2qu irementsshal I apply,_pLovided that the following site remedlaUen Measures..in full or in part:,-as shall be de ermined by the PlannimBoard within its sole discretion. are Includad as an essential element of the aforesaid GxPansion- D1 Substantial enhancement of the overall site landscaplao and/or natural veaetation. L21 Employmont of bast visual nractices by uparadas to existing building facades andjor design of now buildings and/or the additions to.existing buildings which accurately or more accurately depict the historic andfor existing rural character of the Immediate and neathy noiahbarbogdLs). (emphasis underline added) AREA VARIANCE RELIEF: The applicant's request for a 72% Increase of floor area, or 1759 square feet of new building floor area, is very substantial in relation to non-permitted uses and the code's limitations on nonconforming uses in nonconforming buildings. The property does not qualify for a use variance under Section 100-241, based on the standards set in New Page 3 of 5 ZEIA File No. 5759—ROA and R. Bozsynaa CTM 102-3-1 York Town Law, and circumstances with the present and continuous uses at the site, by the applicant's business and by the tenant's business. This residentially-zoned parcel is occupied by established businesses and improved and maintained over the years as nonconforming uses, one building used continuously as a real estate office for many years. Under Section 100-243 of the Zoning Code, thirty (30%) percent limitation of the floor area is allowable based on the existing buildings containing a total building floor area of 2427+- square feet. A 30 percent increase under 100-243 would permit 728 additional square feet,for a total building floor area of 3155+-square feet by code. Granting alternate relief to permit modified building areas with an increase of 25% over the code limitation in Section 100-243, as a nonconforming automobile repair shop that has existed for many years, will not adversely affect the character of this otherwise residential. Granting an alternative for an additional 25% of the existing building floor area for enclosed work activities related only to the applicant's auto body paint/repair service behind the main building is substantial. The building addition, in lieu of a separate building, is more in conformity with the zoning requirements,without splitting the main business Into two buildings, and also will move the work done out of view of the public and safe for not only the employees but also for residents and others active in the neighborhood. It is noted that interior portions, previously occupied by one of the bays, in the main building(s), may be used for enclosed storage of parts and auto repair accessories. Storage areas are not required to be in a separate, new accessory building by insurance or other standards. Another option that may be considered would be to convert the second nonconforming use on the property occupied as a real estate sales office for storage and other minor business uses related to storage or areas related to the auto body repair business. The applicant does not wish to eliminate the real estate office rental for the reason that it would discontinue a rental income. In considering Section 100-243, it is further determined that: a) The alternative relief will result in a maximum lot coverage at less than the code limitation of 20%; b) The construction of an addition to the existing main building will result in an increase of 30% of the building footprint size of the main building,and less than 30%of the overall usage and building areas that exist; c) The alternative relief for increased floor area, as an addition to the main building, shall be designed to be in conformity with all setback and area requirements of the code. d) Proper screening will apply, with other provisions for parking and related site remediation measures, in full or in part,as an essential element of the aforesaid expansion as provided by Section 100-243. POSSIBLE REASONS: On the basis of testimony presented, materials submitted and personal inspections, the Board makes the following findings; 1. Grant of alternative relief, with a maximum increase of 25 percent over the code allowances under Section 100-243, will not produce an undesirable change in the character of the neighborhood or a detriment to nearby properties, and will be in more conformity with the code, as well as access, on-site circulation, setback and area requirements. The applicant is requesting 42% (30% plus 42%. or 72% overall), a substantial Increase, proposing an increased 1,759 square feet related to the existing nonconforming repair business use in a separate (third) building to be occupied. The alternative granted herein is more in conformity with the code than that requested by the applicant, although a variance under Section 100-243 at 25% over the code's 30% limitation is substantial, with a 65% overall allowance of increased floor area. Conditions are placed in this variance for adequate screening, and other provisions for parking and related site remediation measures, in full or in part, as an essential element of the aforesaid expansion as provided by Section 100-243. Conditions have been placed to mitigate areas of concern as it related to the increased floor area and changes at the site. The alternative variance will allow a substantial amount of increased floor area, assisting with applicant's goals for more productivity, safety, efficiency, and storage areas for the existing nonconforming auto body operations. 2. The benefit sought by the applicant cannot be achieved by some method before the Zoning Board of Appeals, feasible for the applicant to pursue, other than an area variance. The difficulties are unique inasmuch as the current business uses have been in existence since the district was rezoned as residential and the owner wishes to continue Page 4 of 5 ZErA File No.5759-ROA and R. Bozsynaa CTM 102-3-1 this use while complying with the regulations and standards related to safety, emission control, more productivity and efficiency, OSHA, Improvements,and other criteria as an auto body repair business. i 3. The relief granted herein s very substantial, resulting in a 30% increase of the existing building floor areas under Section 100-243, plus grant of an additional 25% increase, or 55% overall increase, without an increase the number of tenants or increase of the number of existing business uses on the property. 4. The difficulty is related to the standards and insurance regulations for one of the two existing nonconforming businesses, as a result of the re-zoning of the property in 1989 and current residential zoning limitations of the entire site,with nonconforming building locations. 5. No evidence has been submitted to suggest that a variance in this residential community will have an adverse impact on the physical or environmental conditions In the neighborhood. 6. Grant of alternative relief is the maximum the Board will approve at 25% over the 30% code allowance provided by 100-243. The alternative relief Is the minimum action necessary and adequate to enable the applicant to enjoy the benefit related to the nonconforming uses on the property, while preserving and protecting the character of the neighborhood and the health,safety and welfare of the community. Recommended Action/Conditions: RESOLUTION OF THE BOARD: In considering all of the above factors and applying the balancing test under Now York Town Law 267-13, motion was offered by Chairwoman Oliva,seconded by Member Orlando,and duly carried,to DENY the application as applied for, and that under the circumstances and the fact that the existing business uses have continued for many years, the property does not qualify for a use variance under Section 100-241, and to GRANT Alternate Relief under Section 100-243, permitting a 25%increase of floor area to be added at the rear of the principal building occupied by the applicant's repair business,subject to the following conditions: 1) That adequate screening with 6 ft. (minimum height) evergreen or similar plantings shall be placed along the east, west, and south sides of the property, except that the northerly front yard shall remain open and unobstructed for v1sibIlity purposes related to the nearby street intersection, and except for handicap parking or alternative parking determined by the Planning Board under the site plan review process. 2) No automobiles for service or repairs shall be placed in front of the building along NYS Route 25 (a/k/a Main Road). 3) Used car sales as a principal nonconforming use is not permitted in this R-40 Residential Zone District. Two principal business uses already exist at the property, and no other use is permitted to continue,other than real estate office use and/or auto body paintfrepair service use. 4) In an R-40 Residential Zone District, only one use may be authorized on 40,000 square feet of land area. With the alternative relief granted herein, the floor area may be increased to a maximum of 25 percent for the existing nonconforming auto-body paint/repair business, with continued use of the real estate office business use,without an additional third use (business or residential). No outdoor display or sales of used cars is permitted as a principal nonconforming use. 5) Prior to change or transfer of a nonconforming business use of the building(s)or property,the owner must apply to the Zoning Board of Appeals for transfer of this alternative relief for occupancy of the future nonconforming activities. 6) The temporary tent-type structure shall be removed within 18 months of this determination. 7)The Zoning Board of Appeals reserves the right to inspect the property for the purposes of Page 5 of 5 ZE;A File No.5759-RQA and R.Bozsynao CTM 102-3-1 compliance with the above conditions and review of screening. This action does not authorize or condone any current or future use, setback or other feature of the subject property that may violate the Zoning Code,other than such uses,setbacks and other features as are expressly addressed In this action. Vote of the Board: Ayes: Members Oliva(Chairwoman), Orlando,Goehringer, Dinizio,and Simon. This Resolution was adopted by unanimous vote(5-0).

S,VEEQLK CQIINTY ADMINISTRATIVE COD„E: This application was referred as required under the Suffolk County Administrative Code Sections A 14-14 to 23, and the Suffolk County Department of Planning issued its reply dated April 7, 2023, stating that this application is considered a matter for local determination as there appears to be no significant county-wide or inter-community impact. LWRP,D,ETEIWINATION: The relief, permit, or interpretation requested in this application is listed under the Minor Actions exempt list and is not subject to review under Chapter 268. 1 f) 1 J OF SOI I 1 l.lO Q Pl ANNINQ E ;AwRf ;v The application was referred to the Town of Southold Planning Board for comment who issued its replies dated July 18, 2023 and July 25, 2023 indicating that this site and the submitted 'as-built' plan do not comply with the site plan that was approved by the Planning Board in 2006. Subsequent to the ZBA decision #5759 issued in 2005, the Planning Board approved a site plan in 2006 for the construction of a 1,759 square feet auto repair shop and associated site improvements including but not limited to vehicle circulation including a driveway to Route 25, parking stalls, drainage and landscaping with the ZBA imposed condition 46 of the removal of a 'temporary' portable building(tent, subject of this application). Based on historical aerial photographs, it appears that a 1,157 square feet addition was added on to 'existing building #2' approved in 2006 without proper pen-nits between 2015 and 2016. The subject site and the submitted as-built plan is not in compliance with the approved 2006 site plan. Also, there are inaccurate dimensions for building setbacks shown on the as-built plan provided; and the as-built site plan creates the following concerns: i. "Existing Building 92” was approved at 1,759 square feet and is currently +/-2,916 square feet. Because of this increase in building area, the aisle width behind the nearby parking stalls no longer meets the Town Code requirement. There may be the potential to decrease the number of approved/striped parking stalls on the site and allow for Code compliant aisle width to maintain safe Page 2, August 3,2023 47800, RQA Properties, LLC SCTM No. 1000-102-3-1 site circulation. This could potentially be achieved through an amended site plan application review by the Planning Board. it. The front parking stalls and the access driveway to the south have been modified since the approved plan and are not compliant with the Town Code. Similar to the rear parking, these front-parking stalls may be able to be reconfigured to meet Town Code through the amended site plan process. This particular parcel is located on NY State Route 25; however, it is also adjacent to multiple residential properties. The land Use and Zoning Chapter (Goal 7) and the Economic Development Chapter of the Southold Town Comprehensive Phan encourage the growth of existing business while balancing, economic prosperity with maintaining a high duality of life,the environment andthe unique character of the communities. Absent any nuisance noise, odor or traffic complaints from the neighborhood, this business appears to be consistent with the Comprehensive Plan by achieving that balance.

The applicant's property is well screened and maintained ywith low site traffic, no obnoxious or the odors and little impact on the neighborhood. Page 3, August 3,2023 #7800, RQA Properties, LLC SCTM No. 1000-102-3-1 The applicant provided a site plan, labeled S-1; a floor plan, labeled A-1, and a floor plan/image of the larger tent on slab, labeled A-2 prepared by Mark Kevin Schwartz, Registered Architect and dated March 9, 2023. The applicant states that total lot coverage calculation for tile subject parcel is 7,009,7 square feet or 18,6% lot coverage where 201.146 lot coverage is the rnaxiMUrn allowed by Code, The applicant also provided a statement titled: Zoning Board History with the Property, which outlines the applicant's opinion that the property, was originally a Esso gas station, pre 1957 with a detailed description of all uses and Board relief granted, through the change of Zone, to the present use as air automotive repair; shop as granted in ZBA file #5759 which allowed for the non- conforming use expansion of the principal building,by 25%with various conditions, including#6,the removal of the larger 'temporary' structure. The applicant has area open building permit, 4Z-33782,dated June 17, 2009, for which they now seek a Certificate of Occupancy, along with the recognition and legalization of the various additional improvements not included in the site plan as approved by the Town of Southold Planning Board. During the Public [Dearing the applicant acknowledged that they extended the garage building without the benefit of a building pernl it and in direct conflict with the ZBA reliet'granted in file 45759,and also in conflict with the Planning Board Approved site plan, of 2006. While not a tormally amended application, the applicant stated that they, will remove the five smaller shed/storage trailers. They(lid not indicate whether or,not they would be willing to remove the larger 'portable' tent on concrete slab, which was conditioned to be removed under the prior Boards decision in 2005. No member of the public or an Immediate neighbor spoke in favor of or against this application. S Q6,( F FAC lV_RIA ONS FO,R,,BO RD ACT1W The Zoning 13oard of'Appeals held a public hearing on this application Oil July 6 at which time written and oral tr evidence were presented, Based upon all testimony, documentation, personai inspection ofthe property and surrounding neighborhood, and other-evidence, the Zoning Board finds the following facts to be true and relevant and makes the following findings: I 1. Town La", Vb),(a Grant ofthe variance to allow p aiauoveral I inrease of 65%overthe grantedincrease of 25'%, willnot roduce an undesirable change ain the character of' the neighborhood or a detriment to nearby properties as the site is well screened with mature landscaping, conditioned in the prior relief granted arid the site plan approved by the planning Board in the prior appeal. Furthermore, extensive fencing exists which further shields the site from area residences,the roadway and passersby. Grant of relief to allow the larger 'tent' portable structure on concrete slab to remain will however be a detriment to tile community and adversely alter the character ofthe neighborhood and nearby properties. This teinporary structure Was previously conditioned to be removed in ZBA file 95759 and is also supported by the approved site plan, as sanctioned by, the 'Fown ofSoutbold Planning Board in 2006. 2, Town Law V67-b%3Ah)(2h. 'the benefit souglit by the applicant can be achieved by sonic inethod, feasible lor, the applicant to PUt-SUe, rather thart an area variance, The applicant call comply with the previous relief granted in ZBA tile 95759 and in the approved site plan by tis Townrof Sohold Planning Board and maintain a functioningbusiness. All contained in an as built addition that is gter than the original ft)otprint of the principal building, while removing multiple sheds/trailers and the large *tent' portable structure on concrete slab. The variances granted herein are mathematically substantial, representing 65% greater relief from the code than the prior 259Xrelief from the code, granted in 2005. However, it would be all unnecessary hardship to require the applicant to remove tire 24 feet by 48.2 feet addition to the masonry structure Page 4,August 3,2023 47800, RQA Properties, LLC SCTIVI No. 1000-102-3-1 previously granted, iii light of no adverse conditions discovered as part of this application. Relative to maintaining the large 'tent' portable structure on concrete slab, it would be 100% relief from the code as this structure was conditioned to be removed frons the site as part of reliefgranted in ZBA file#5759 and the Town Of'SOUthOld approved site plan of 2006. 4. Town 1,aw U67-b(3)(b)(4). Evidence has been SUbM itted to Suggest that a variance in this residential community will have an adverse impact on the physical or environmental conditions in the neighborhood. The applicant must comply with Chapter 236 of the Town's Storm Water Management Code and seek approval from the Town of Southold Planning Board for an u pdatedlarn ended site plan, correcting parking and on-site circulation problems discovered as part of this application. 5. The difficulty, has been self-created. The applicant publicly stated that they made site improvements without the benefit of a building permit and in contravention of the relief granted in ZBA file #5759 and the 2006 Town of Southold approved site plan. I"urtherniore, the applicant purchased the parcel after the Zoning Code was in effect and it is presumed that the applicant had actual or constructive knowledge of the limitations on the use of the parcel under the Zoning Code in effect prior to or at the tame of purchase. 6. Town 1,aw '267-b. Grant of the requested relief`' maintaining the 'as built' masonry addition to the auto repair shop, measuring 24, feet by 48,2 feet, is the rninirnum action necessary and adequate to enable the applicant to enjoy the benefit of an expanded, non-confortning business use in the R40 Residential Zoning District, while preserving and protecting the character of the neighborhood and the health, safety and welfare of the community.

Wilcenski, Planning Board Chairman Members of the Planning Board Date: July 25, 2023 Re: ZBA#7800, RQA Properties, LLC 29950 NYS Route 25, Cutchogue SCTM#1000-102.-3-1 The Planning Board has reviewed your request for comments regarding the above-referenced application and provides the following for your consideration. This site and the submitted as- built plan do not comply with the site plan that was approved by the Planning Board in 2006. An amended site plan review by the Planning Board is recommended if the ZBA's decision results in the site remaining noncompliant with the 2006 site plan. Subsequent to the ZBA decision#5759 issued in 2005, the Planning Board approved a site plan in 2006 for the construction of a 1,759 sq. ft. auto repair shop and associated site improvements including but not limited to vehicle circulation including a driveway to Rt. 25, parking stalls, drainage and landscaping. In 2009, the Planning Board sent a letter to the owner (Richard Bozsnyak) in response to a request for Certificate of Occupancy (CO). This letter acknowledged certain as-built changes made during construction and stated that the site was satisfactory with exception of the temporary structure (tent) required to be removed as noted on the approved site plan in connection to a condition of ZBA decision#5759. Though the owner mentioned that this structure is an asset to the business and alleviates any potential impact the operation may have on the surrounding properties, it was advised in this letter that the request to maintain the structure is under the purview of the ZBA. Based on historical aerial photographs, it appears that a 1,157 sq. ft. addition was added on to "existing building #2" (approved in 2006)without proper permits between 2015 and 2016. The subject site and the submitted as-built plan is not in compliance with the approved 2006 site plan. Also, there are inaccurate dimensions for building setbacks shown on the as-built plan provided; and the as-built site plan creates the following concerns: i. "Existing Building#2" was approved at 1,759 sq. ft, and is currently±2,916 sq. ft. Because of this increase in building area,the aisle width behind the parking stalls near there no longer meet the Town Code requirement. There may be the potential to decrease the number of approved/striped parking stalls on site and allow for code compliant aisle width to maintain safe site circulation. This could potentially be achieved through an amended site plan application review by the Planning Board. ii. The front parking stalls and the access driveway to the south have been modified since the approved plan and are not compliant with the Town Code. Similar to the rear parking, these front-parking stalls may be able to be reconfigured to meet Town Code through the amended site plan process.
