The Chairman opened the hearing by reading the application for a variances legal notice of hearing~ affi4avit~attesting to its publication in the official newspapera and notice to the applicant. THE CHAIRMAN: Is there anyone present Who wishes to speak for this application? ~ W~IAMWICKHAM¥ ESQ.: Yes~ myname is WilliamWickham~ Attorne~ Mattituck, I believe the 1959 variance was requested because at that t/me the petitioner wanted to shift the two cottages back and put in duplexes. That~ as explained in the petition has now been abandoned. The two cottages are immediately for saleandthe duplex is under an option. We felt that by this shift it would present an equitable area or comparable area to all the plots. THE CHAIRMAN: The two cottages in the middle are now for sale and the one on Middle Road is occupied~ WMj WICKHAM.,ESQ.~: The Cottage fronting on Middle Road is presently occupied by Teevesw under rentala and he has an option to buy. The two cottages in the center are rented out for residential use. THE CHAIRMAN: What about the duplex on Soundview Avenue~ what becomes of that? ~M.~ WICKHAM, ESQ.': The duplex on Soundview Avenue is going to be retained by Fir. & ~irs. Main' It is rented at the present time,~ but theyhave no intention of disposing of it at the present, Although they do want an adequate rear' area. THE CHAIRMAN: Rear area? What do you mean~ on Soundview Avenue? WMj WICKHAM, ESQj: A rear yard area on .the south side of the duplex. THE CHAIRMAN:~ This would not in any way change the location of the buildings? WM~ WICKHAM~,'Ea~Q%~: No~ it w~uld not, THE CHAIRMAN: How long has Eva Main owned'the prQperty? Wasn't there a prevmous owner? ~MR~ Fa%IN: My name is Fir. Main~ I am Evans husband. Joe AvitO was the preceding owner. That was in 19587 Southold Town Boar~'-hf Appeals --3- January ~2~ 1970 MR.' MAIN: It was before that. MR.~ GRIGONIS: What about the original application? Wasn't that in 19597 WM. WICEHAM,i ESQ.: 1959 was the second application. There '.was a previous application made in 1958. The prop~mty was purchased either in 1957 or 1958. H~ARD TERRY~' BUTT,~ING INSPECTOR: I think he bought it right after the Ordinance went into effectl THE CHAIRMAN: Are there any further questions? (There was no response.) · THE CHAIRMAN: Is there anyone present who wishes to-speak against application? (There was ne.response.) After investigation and inspection the Board finds that the applicant requests permission to divide Tots with reduced area. The cottage on Lot % 10 is now within four (4) feet of the side line. The applicant wishes to shift the Side lines on all lots 10 feet to the south so that all lots will conform to the Ordinance in, regard to frontage and sideyardso The Boardis in agreement with the reasoning of the applicant. This variancewill not change the surface or the location of the buildings. The granting of this variance,will improve the area rather than depreciate it. The Boardfinds that strict application of the Ordinance would produce practical difficulties or unRecessary hardship; 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 will not change thecharacter of the neighborhood~ and will observe the spirit of the Ordinance..
