Southold Town Board of Appeals -2- December 15, 1966 THE CHAIRMAN: Is there anyone present who wishes to~speak in favor of this application? STANLEY~'CORWIN, ESQ.: Mr. Chairman, I think this Board is familiar with this situation. You did anticipate this application coming in. I think you know the reason for it, why we are asking for it. On the east sideof Beverly Road there are tkree houses. We are not asking for the crowde~ conditions on the other side. Also take considerationtthat this is in a business district, it is zoned for business. Take into consideration the fact this is a summer colony. Other than that, I have nothing else to add. THE CHAIRMAN: Anyone wish to speak in opposition to this application? (There was no response.) THE CHAIRMAN: Are there any questions from the Board? MR. BERGEN: I l~oked over this property and think it should be granted as asked for. After investigation and inspection the Board finds that the appellant requests permission to divide property and create two u~dersized lots and requests approval of access on a private right of way to serve the second lot created. The Board finds that.one of the lots to be created will have an area of 9500 square feet; the other lot will have an area of 9460 square feet. Both lots are in keeping with the size of the other lots in the immediate area. The Board points out thatthis is a summer colony. The Board further points out there is ~ublic water availabt~to these lots. The Board finds that the right of way to be created will be 20 feet wide for a lenght of 75 feet; for the remaining 75 feet of the right of way it will be 10 feet wide. This right of way will be subject tothe-final appro~al of the Southold Town Building Inspector. The Board finds that strict application of the Ordinance will produce practical difficulties or unnecessary hardship; the hardship created is unique and would not be shared by all properties alike inthe 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~ Southold Tewn Board of Appeals -3- December 15, 1966 On motion by Mr. 'Bergen, seconded by Mr. Grigonis, it was RESOLVED that StanleyCorwin, Esq.~ -a/c Helmut Hass, Southold, New York, be granted permission to divide property, and granted recognition of access on property located on .the east side of a private road (BeverlyRoad), Southold~ New York~ as applied for on the application to the Board of Appeals, application dated Decmmber 1, 1966; and as shown on the su=vey map by'Otto Van Tuyl and Son, map dated' December 9~ 1965.

We are in a remote area° The signs have been there for at least fifteen years. one being on Middle Road, w~h we will remove and relocate in the Riverhead area. The other two signs are three inches high and three feet long. They are directional signs in 'the form of an arrow° We can tell the folks if they turn down on-Cox Neck Road and they will see these sign and bring them to our place of business. Other than that, we are three miles fromthe main partof Town and pretty hard for them to find USo Alot of these drivers are from the city and west end and the drivers aren't familiar with the area. Many of our customers come out on Sunday to our place of business and it is pretty hard toget directions to our home. They will call and I can tell them' to l~ok for these signs. I have permission from one of the property owners at the Bergen Avenue sign. The other one on Sound Avenue, the owner is away and I haven't been able to contact him at the moment.

NORMAN REILLY: That is your feeling? THE CHAIRMAN: Just mine. They set a precedent and we would have to continue this. There are many contractors that don't have property on the main highway. If we ~ve one, we would have to give to all of them. MR. DOYEN~ We don~t have any choice in the matter. NORMAN REILLY: You can set precedents. MR. DOYEN: If we set precendent in this case there is no reason to d~undreds of others. This doesn't fall within the precedent laid down for us to follow. We are much reluctant to have to do this. It is not within our province to grant this no matter how much we sympathize with you. THE CHAIRMAN: Are there any other questions? (There was. no response.)

Signs advertising types ofbusinesses which provide food, shelter and amusement for the public are deemed in~e public interest and convenience. The Board finds that the public convenience and welfare and justice will not be served and the legally established or permitted use of neighborhood p~operty and adjoining use districts will be permanently or substantially injured and the spirit of the Ordinance will not be observed.

CHARLESDOUGHERTy: Three of these signs are directional signs and the once across the street from the office Us on property that we own. THE CHAIRMAN: The only real estate signs that are allowed off premises are on property.which is for sale. If any of this property is for sale ............ ARNOLD LARSEN: We know that. Why would we make this application unless we thought'it would be acceptable to you. This whole thing is a farce. THE CHAIRMAN: I can't answer that question. ARNOLD'LARSEN:- Well somebody should answer it. MR.- DOYEN: That's a good question. You went to the Building I. nspector? ARNOLD LARSEN= Yes. MR. DOYEN: Imll tell'you why we do get these applications. Because the building inspector tells them no. It is your privilege to apply if you so elect. He should tell them of the Board's policy and they can plan their actions accordingly. I appreciate your feeling in the matter. If you came to the building inspector and he told you no ~ and you believed him that would be it unles you wanted to go to the court and then start w~th us~ and go up higher/ - Southotd Town Board of Appeals -19- December 15, 1966 MR. DOYEN: In the normal course of e~ents if. the building inspector said no, I don't know why youwould be here, or anyone else. ARNOLD LARSEN: I don't know why.we are here. MR. DOYEN: Who made the application? ARNOLD'LARSEN: Mr. Doyen may I ask you a question? How many meeting of this Board have you been to in the last year? MR. BERGEN~ That has nothing to do with this application? AR~OLD'LARSEN: It ~oes to me. Very much so. It has alot to do with it. Because he has explained all these things to me that I don'texplain at'all Mr. Bergen. This is extraneous to my thinking. The way he is expressing himself tonight. This is tom- fo61ery for us to show up here to make application and there is no discussion form this Board except it is contrary to the rules we know perfectly well, and then you as heading up this Board tonight state real estate is allowed so many signs on property that is for sale. We know all of that. We are no ~mb bells. /We are being made fools of. And Mr. Doyen, I still want to know how many meeting of this Board you have attended in. the last year. MR. DOYEN: You ask the secretary. I don't know if it was 6~8, 10, 12 or 15. The secretary has the records. I don't know%hat it has to do with this. ARN, OLD LARSEN: It has alot to do with me. MR. DOYEN: What lead you to make the application. I would like to get to the bottom of this. No one should come in here and feel that they are being made fools of. ARNOLD L~RSEN: We felt that if we applied it would be accepted or rejected on certain grounds. Thee is no grounds, no objections. MR. DOYEN: To prevent this in the future, Mr.~ Dougherty~ why did you make the application? MR. DOUGHERT~: I got a letter from the building inspector that siad these signs were out of order and if I wanted to make application to retain them I should come do, here. I came do~m and mad~the application. I understood at the time if it was approved it would only be for one year. I a]3so know that when the Zoning Ordinance was built, went into effect, it ran its livelihood. I know there Southold Town Board of'Appeals -20- December 15, 1966 alot~of objection to it on the part-of the people who are gainfully ~-p~ employed~ I haven't seen this many signs go up in the area sincd zoning went in. I have not had anyone come into either of our offices, and I operate two, and say this town is lovely except for your signs. The only objection I see on the sign here is number one it was written into the Ordinance, if you want to go ~ack that far. We went down to the high school one night. Nobody could read it~and vote on it. That was too much. But that is over the dam. We are endeavering to mske a living and do business. ~hen we get through you are going to tell me to take all my signs down and go home - in essense. MR. DOYEN: Yes, I.suppose so because of the limitations imposed upon us by procedure and Ixecedents. ~ DOUGHERT¥: By procedure and precedent is probably the way to say ~t. On the other hand I firmly believe that this fellow sitting at this table are not'really figure heads. You must have some reason to say' this is why the Board says this. You must have some r~ to s~t here and judge and justify and if these things are obnOXiOus an~ hurting people, and all of this then give us a good reason why the are and get them down. I won't even give you 30 days. There must be some reason why you turn around and saY'we do feel hotels, motels, and restaurants need signs.' I know they need them. I know I need them because the North Road used to be King's Highway, then it became the North Road, then Route 27, and then Norm Klipp came along with Route 27A. People don'tknow where we are because the road .isn't even marked' right. I need signs. MR. DOYEN: What you say Ia~ aware of, I have spent hundreds ofhours iist~nin~ to business people-who need signs. I a~e theY'need signs. Anybody in Business needs signs. You go back to the beginning andS_he ~.m~Ll~ philosphy of all ~this sign andI it is reflected in the Ordinance, that means you will have to limit signs. You di~ln't answer the question or'why did you make the application and why you feel you camshere for no purpose at all. We can .not grant these signs because of limitatiens imposed upon us. We only grant directional signs that are in the interest oflthe traveling public and public interest and this hasb~ construed to mean hotels, motels, ...... 'Southold Town Board of Appeals -21- December 15, 1966 MR. DOUGHERTY: I came down here because I was told I had certain signs that-were out of or,er. I went out and measured these signs and they were six feet by four feet, set back sufficient, except for the one you talk about that is once highway. The~were not advertising property for sale, they were advertising a way to reach an office. (Mr.-Doyen explained the normal procedure of filing an application with the Board of Appeals. Mr~ Doyen also pointed out that because of cases in the past, which are on record, the appellant.should have come before the Board realizing that the type of'~ that was requested was not generally approved.) MR. DOUGHERTY: The point remains I came down here because I felt that the Board~uld have something to say about it. They knocked it off before I came in here. This was all cut and dry. THE CPIAIRMAN: Ail signs were to be taken down within five years. If this was carried out and everybody removed these signs the signs could be placed at certain points. MR.- DOUGHERTY: I don;t think it is fair'for you to say this is out. I know you people put alot of time into this. ARNOLD'LARSEN: I do think the time you people put in is wasted. All you have to say is have Howard Terry tell us that directional signs are for hotels, motels and restaurants. MR. DOYEN: That is the point I was trying 'to make. MR.' DOUGHE~RTY: In the meantime we have gone ~k through all of this., I am not Eure if you have made your final remarks, but every sign we have applied for is down, out. THE CHAIRMAN: Except the one on premises. MR. WAIME¥: I assume Mr. Abatelli is going to take this to court. I want the record to show that you stated that you did not have power to authorize this sign. THE CHAIRMAN: By precedents that have been set up. MR~ WAIME¥: You did not say precedent, you said the law did not authorize you anything, you had to deny the application. On the othe~-~he form that we got stated specifically that if we sort relief~ I don't know the exact words, it impl~d that if we filed an application for a variance with the Board together with the $5.00 feet we would be heard and given an opportunity to have the sign Southold Town Beard of Appeals -23- December 15, t966 approved. This was the implication. However~ ifwe go back to what you stated that you did not have the authority and that ~ why I have said you are figure heads. THECHAIRNAN: By past precedents thathave~bemn set up. MR. WAIME¥: I am not~rying to make' any legal stahements. I am just trying to get it on the record thatCthis is ~m arbitrary to require us to file an application together'with a $5.00 fee, come down here and spend time and the$ you say you have no authority by precedent or law or whatever. My.understanding of an Appeal Board of any kind is that you have authority in cases ofhardship, Now your definition of hardship may be that-I am not entitled to a living and therefore it doesn't matter. believe I am, I believe I ~pay taxes here and I Should' have the right to make a living here. THECHAIRMAN: I don't believe that-was stated. That a sign wasn't~required for your living. We don't feel that anyone doesn't have the right-to make a living. MR.WAIMEY: The implication is there when you state that a sign is not,required for my living. In essense it was implied. T~E CHAIRMAN: The reason was all signs were suppose to be removed. The signs were to come down within five years ~time. At the end of that perio~if the signs were removed as they w~re suppose to have been the Board saw fit for some reason or another, they didn't enforce it, and now they have decided to enforce .it. MR. RADFORD: As I understand it the Board looks in the friendly view on Certain types ofbu~ess ~here they have actually granted signs after the Ordinance~ They.designate the tYPe'of~business they will recognize and are against other'type of business. This I think is unreasonable. MR.. DOYEN: ~his is a very reasonable outlook for anyone that is in business and needs a sign~ and perhaps doesn;t look as if they are favored like any other business. The reasoning and philosphy behin~ this for granting of signs is in the best interest of the Town and people of the Town and those using the Town.-And in the best interest some directional signs were allowed for public convenience and was meant to mean lodging and food and perhaps amusement to some degree. Those business that f~l into this catagory look favored to ~J~w~ all others. Not'that all others don'tfeel that they need signs. As far as the Town;~e signs, the people, only the public convenience in the best interest of the Town were considered and that was tomean food and lodging. ~outhbld Town Board of Appeals -23- December 15, 1966 MR. DOUGHERTY: Let me leave you with a final thought. I think this goes for'all you members of the Board here. The. real estate ~ business in this community~ a .g~owing community, and they have to come out-here. I happen to thin~, and I am predjudice because I have put 20 years into it in this community~ I happen to think its a very important phase of this community Whether youbelieve or not. And you should believe it. MR.~ DOYEN: I am in agreement with you. And to get .relie~, they are drawing up the Master Plan which will take in changes in the Zoning. Your'place is to start now and go to the Town Board and get ~ctuded in this. MR~ DOUGHERTY: The only'thing I am disappointed in, in being here this evening, is that for some reason you fellows don't want to accept any responsibility, orcan't accept any, one or the other. This is not a Board of Appeals, it's a come in~ sit down and go Out. MR4 DOYEN: I don't agree with you ...... THE CHAIRMAN: Is there anything further? (There was no response.) After investigation and inspection the Board finds that the appellant requests permission to retain fouroff premises directional, advertising signs. The ~p,~ appellant is in the real estate business. The Board points'out that any real estate dealer may display a sign on any property that is for sale-.~r for rent. .The Board points Out and refers to a policy set'up by. the Board in May 1958, which was to be used as a guide for off premises signs. Said guide statedthat the pub~ose of such a sign must be directional in the public interest or convenience as distinguished-from signs advertising the sale of products or merchandise. Signs advertising types of business which provide food, shelter and amusement ]for the public are deemed in the public interest and~onvenience. The Board finds that the public convenience andwelfare and justice will not be served and the legally established or permitted use of n~ighborhood property-and adjoining use districts will be permanently or substantially injured and the spirit of the Ordinance will not be observed.
