The promises is improved with a church building located at the easterly portion of the promises, set back 44 feet from the chain link fence to the north (close to the northerly property line along Sound Avenue). Also existing on the promises are a 20 ft. by 24 ft. masonry structuro and the Church Cemetery. (For information purposes, it is noted that there aro other lands adjoining this site also owned by the applicant identified as County Tax Map Parcels 26, 33 and 34, District 1000, Section 141, Block 4, which aro not a part of this application.) BASIS OF APPEAL: Building Inspector's March 13, 1998 Action of Disapproval which reads as follows: "...Under Article XXIV, Section 100-243, a nonconforming building with a nonconforming use cannot be enlarged, reconstructed or structurally altered. Note - the nonconforming use pertains to the HB Zone where churches aro not permitted; the nonconforming building pertains to the existing front yard set back to Rt. 25 which is less than the required 15 feet.

Page 2 - April 30, ,.J8 Mattituck Presbysterian Church App]. #4561:1000-141-4-32.1 Southold Town Board of Appeals REASONS FOR BOARD ACTION~ DESCRIBED BELOW: 1. Grant of an area variance will not produce an undesirable ehange the character of the neighborhood or a detriment to nearby properties because the Church was built in 1715, centuries prior to zoning, and the modest expansion proposed is in keeping with the time-honored site the Church. The proposed setbacks of the new addition conform lo the code requirements. 2. The benefit sought by the applicant cannot be achieved by some method, feasible for the applicant to pursue, other than a variance, because there is no other practica] location on the site to build extension onto the Church. 3. The requested variance is not substantial. It is well established under the case law that religious institutions enjoy enhanced protections and are to receive wider latitude in permissive land-use than commercial businesses such asprovided for in this Hamlet Business District. 4. The difficulty has not been self-created and is due to the historic use and location of the Church at this site. 5. The proposed variance will not have an adverse effect or impact on the physical or environmental conditions in the neighborhood or district because the Church has existed in harmony with the community at this site for more than 200 years. In considering this application, the Board deems this action to be the minimum necessary and adequate, and at the same time preserves and of the neighborhood, and the health, safety, protects the character welfare of the community. RESOLUTION/ACTION: On motion by Member Tortora, seconded Chairman Goehringer, it was RESOLVED, to GRANT the relief, as applied for. by ' O VOTE OF THE BOARD: AYES: M~.F,M~ERS GOEHRINGER, DINIZI HORNING, COLLINS. ~.~'i~ ~olutio~d~gpted 5-0. / / GERARD P.

Box 884 Westhampton Beach, December 30, 1997 New York 11978 Bennett Orlowski, Jr., Chairman Southold Town Planning Board P.O. 1179 Southold, New York 11971 RE: Mattituck Presbyterian Church Dear Mr. Orlowski and Board Members: On behalf of the Mattituck Presbyterian Church, 12605 Main Road at Sound Avenue, Mattituck, tax map 1000-141-4-32.1 and I would like to request a waiver of site planrequirements.' 26, The Church is proposing a 32' x 34.8' (1114 square feet) addition to the main floor of the building. Because the church is historically significant and is located on a prominent corner in Mattituck, the design of the addition was carefully considered. It was decided to relocate the north end and steeple of the church 32 feet north of its existing location. The new addition would be built between the church and the relocated steeple. This would preserve the appearance of the church and provide the space needed. The addition would add 17 feet (592 sq. ft.) to the sanctuary to provide 80 new seats to accommodate the increase in the congregation. At present, worshippers either stand in the back of the church or go home. The remaining 15'x 34.8' (522 sq. ft.) would provide a much-needed handicapped lavatory and coat area as well as a stair to the lower level. The increased size of the narthex would provide a "mothers' room" so that mothers and fathers with small children may stay for the service. The lower level would include the area under the proposed addition and a new cellar under the existing sanctuary in order to connect to the existing cellar. This area would add 3965~ gross square feet to the lower level. Approximately 1056 sq. ft. would be used for classrooms and the remaining space for mechanical equipment and storage for the thrift store and food pantry. Mr. Orlowski, Chairman December 30, ~997 page two I am requesting a waiver of site plan requirements for two reasons. 1. Only a small part of the proposed addition would require parking spaces. As the attached calculations indicate, the new pews in the sanctuary would seat 80 people, which would require 20 additional parking spaces. The classrooms on the lower level would require 29 parking spaces but these would be the same parking spaces used by those attending the services. A review of the available parking on neighboring properties indicates 195 parking spaces are available. Therefore, the additional parking spaces are available for the increased use proposed by the Church. 2. The church has been on this site for many years so the site is fully developed. The area not used by buildings is now a cemetery so there is no area left to be developed with site improvements. Most of the neighboring properties are also developed. The Church benefits from permission to use the Handy Pantry parking lot as well as the Town of Southold parking lot, both across the street from the church. Because of the significance of the building and its prominent location, this request does not include a waiver from review by the Architectural Review Board. If the Planning Board feels it is necessary, the proposal will be submitted to that board for review. To help you evaluate this request, the following items have been enclosed: a copy of the existing survey the proposed site plan the proposed main and lower level a letter authorizing Diane Herold, the Church floor plans Architect, to represent a tax map showing the parking areas available to the Church Mr. 0rlowski, Chairman December 30, 1997 page three photographs of the parking areas photographs of the cemetery which occupies most of church property the parking calculations showing required parking spaces and existing parking available to the church property transactional disclosure form The congregation is excited about this proposed work and they, as well as I, thank you for your attention to this request.
