ZB File No. 5951 - Kenneth Glass and Laurie Rafkin
Property Location: 1710 Minnehaha Boulevard, South old
CTM 87-3-52
SEQRA DETERMINATION: The Zoning Board of Appeals has visited the property under consideration in this
application and determines that this review falls under the Type II category of the State's List of Actions,
without further SEQRA steps as planned.
PROPERTY FACTS/DESCRIPTION: This 9,960 square foot parcel is improved with a single-family, one-story
house as shown on the 4-25-2005 survey prepared by John C. Ehlers, amended June 2, 2006.
BASIS OF APPLICATION: Request for a Variance under Section 100-244 (280-124), based on the Building
Inspector's July 31, 2006 Amended Notice of Disapproval concerning a proposed deck addition with hot-tub,
which will exceed the maximum permitted lot coverage limitation of 20%. The Notice of Disapprovai states a
lot coveral:/e proposed of approximately 30%.
FINDINGS OF FACT
The Zoning Board of Appeals held a public hearing on this application on September 28, 2006, at which time
written an,j oral evidence were presented. Based upon all testimony, documentation, personal inspection of
the property, and other evidence, the Zoning Board finds the following facts to be true and relevant:
AREA VARIANCE RELIEF REQUESTED: The applicants request an area variance to replace an at-grade
concrete deck in the side yard with a new deck constructed of wood and with a hot tub, with the deck partially
elevated above grade. The proposed above grade portion of the deck will increase the lot coverage to 6.68%
more than the 20 percent allowed by the code.
REASONS FOR BOARD ACTION: On the basis of testimony presented, materials submitted and personal
inspections, the Board makes the following findings:
1. Grant of the variance will not produce an undesirable change in the character of the neighborhood or a
detriment to nearby properties, Presently there is a poured concrete patio with retaining wall and stoop nine
feet from the side property line. A new wood deck is proposed to replace the patio, 335 square feet at grade
and 685 square feet above grade with a hot tub. The raised deck will be 18 inches from ground to provide an
access to the door gliders, and with a privacy fence will be five feet from the property line. The privacy fence
and existing vegetation will provide a privacy enhancement between the subject property and the neighboring
property, reducing the visual aspects of the deck on the neighboring properties.
2. The benefit sought by the applicants cannot be achieved by some method, feasible for the applicant to
pursue, other than an area variance because the proposed deck is located in a very narrow side yard that is
Page:? - October 5, 2006 ..
ZB File No. 5951 - Kenneth Gla,;,r'Laurie Rafkin
CTM No. 87-3-52
.
the architectural rear yard of the subject property. If the deck were totally at grade, there would be no variance
required, but the owner applicant needs wheelchair access from the interior of the house to the proposed deck
and hot tub, requiring that a portion of the deck be elevated at 18" above grade. The hot tub is recommended
as medical therapy for the owner/applicant. Because the existing dwelling represents lot coverage of 19.809%,
any deck above grade will increase the lot coverage beyond the allowable 20 percent.
3. The variance granted herein is substantial. Of the proposed 1,019 square feet wood deck, 685 square feet
is 18" above grade to allow the hot tub to be lowered into the deck for accessibility and the creation of a zero
threshold condition from the interior of the house through the sliding glass doors, to the exterior deck. An
increase in the side yard setback from the existing 9 feet to a proposed 5 foot setback is a 4 foot reduction; the
proposed deck width is required for accessibility. The proposed lot coverage is 26.68% but the additional
6.68% will be a deck open to the sky that will have no real effect on the streetscape or neighbors.
4. The difficulty has been self-created because the choice of a raised wood deck in the side yard to create
privacy and accessibility increases the lot coverage and setbacks thus requiring an area variance.
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 the requested relief is the minimum action necessary and adequate to enable the applicant to enjoy
the benefit of a deck and hot tub, 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 Weisman, seconded by Member Goehringer, and
duly carried, to
GRANT the variance as applied for, as shown on survey dated June 2, 2006 by John C. Ehlers, Land
Surveyor and site plan dated May 24, 2006 by Mark K. Schwartz, AlA subject to the condition that the
deGk construction shall remain open to the sky.
Any deviation from the variance given such as extensions, or demolitions which are not shown on the applicant's diagrams
or survey site maps, are not authorized under this application when involving nonconformities under the zoning code. 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.
The Board reserves the right to substitute a similar design that is de minimis in nature for an aiteration that does not
increase the degree of nonconformity.
Vote of the Board: Ayes: Members Oliva (Chairwoman), Goehringer, Dinizio, Simon, and Weisman. This
Resolution was duly adopted (5-0).

Part A: AREA VARIANCE REASONS (attach extra sheet as needed):
(I) An undesirable change will not be produced in the CHARACTER of the neighborhood or a
detriment to nearby properties if granted, because: The house was recently renovated, however,
the cement patio requires extensive repairs. The owner wishes to replace the concrete patio with
wood decking: 685 sq.ft. of the decking is @ 18" above grade for access from the gliders and to
insert hot tub and 334 sq.ft. Is at grade. The design prepared by the Mark Schwartz and the
landscape architect provides greater privacy with wood privacy screens (fence). The landscape
designer has proposed a wood deck, hot tub and privacy screens as shown on the Deck Plan
attached (A-I). Due to the nonconforming setback of the existing house and small lot, a lot
coverage variance and setback variance is requested. The deck runs along the side of the house
(Corner Lot) and provides access to the sliding glass doors. The decking will provide greater
privacy between neighbors (see photographs) and the wood material softens the design. Cement
and stone not desired by owners because stone material will not conform to the wood materials
of the house.
(2) The benefit sought by the applicant CANNOT be achieved by some method feasible for the
applicant to pursue, other than an area variance, because:
The owners request wood rather than concrete or stone. The design is intended to provide "soft"
design which can not be achieved by stone or cement. The lot is nonconforming so any decking
will result in exceeding the lot coverage. The house was renovated without expanding the foot
print, the house is a second home and the outside living space is very important to the owners.
(3) The amount of relief requested is not substantial because: The decking is partly above grade
to match the sliders (685 sq.ft.)and partly on grade(334 sq.ft.). The lot coverage is exceeded due
to the material choice, cement or stone would not be considered lot coverage if at grade. The
sliders do require elevation of the decking or steps. The wood material provides a pervious
surface, unlike the existing cement, which is impervious. There is no water runoff issue for
wood. Mrs. Glass requires the decking to be handicap accessible (note the ramp down from
elevat,ed portion of decking to decking at grade)
(4) The variance will NOT have an adverse effect or impact on the physical or environmental
conditions in the neighborhood or district because: The decking will have no impact on the
environment. The cement will be replaced by pervious material, therefore, it is a benefit to the
environment. Natural materials have been selected throughout and the owner wishes to continue
the natural material to the decking.
(5) Has the variance been self-created? (X )Yes, or ( )No. Ifnot, is the construction
existing, as built? ( )Yes, or ( )No. If the patio were of cement/stone a variance would not
be required, however, it would change the design of the landscape and be difficult to provide
..
e.
u& 4I.S (
handicap accessiblility.
(6) Additional information about the surrounding topography and building areas that relate to
the difficulty in meeting the code requirements: (attach extra sheet as needed) The property is a
comer lot which limits the owner's privacy. The decking includes privacy screens (at code
compliant height) which will provide privacy to both the owner and neighbors.
This is the MINIMUM that is necessary and adequate, and at the same time preserves and
protects the character of the neighborhood and the health, safety, and welfare of the
community.

*Staff notes the pre-existing house and accessory structures. The applicant is proposing a rather substantial
dwelling, which is 97% larger than the existing dwelling. Consideration should be given to limiting the size of
the residence and meeting the 100 ft. setback to reduce adverse impacts to the bluff.
Very truly yours,

Regarding Public Hearing for Variance under Section 100-~
For deck and hot tub at 1710 Minnehaha Blvd, Southold; CTM 87-3-52
Scheduled for 9/28/06 at1.30pm
I would respectfully like to make a statement regarding the above petition. I believe it
may help in your decision regarding our appeal for a deck to be built at the same level as
the sliding doors leading on to it, as well as for our need for a hot tub and our genuine
need to eliminate as many steps as possible from the project as possible.
My mother-in-law, Mrs Pauline Ratkin, is elderly now and not in wonderful health. She
may be confined to a wheelchair in the near future. Since the house belonged to her, we
would like her to be able to visit it as much as possible. If there are to be steps leading out
onto the deck, she would not be able to go outside.
Furthermore, my wife, Laurie Ratkin, has had extensive treatment and hospitalizations at
Stony Brook Hospital over the past 2 years due to her having developed breast cancer.
We want her to be able to enjoy the Southold house and the hot tub was recommended by
he:r doctors as valuable therapy. She also may not in the future be able to negotiate steps.
We hope you will be able to take these concerns into consideration when deciding
whether to grant us this variance. We would so appreciate your kind sympathy in this
re:gard.
