ZONING BOKRD OP APPEAL~
Barbara C. Dittmann, Secretary
By investigation and public hearing the Board finds the
following facts pertinent to the decision~, This application is
for two (2) single face billboards, located on the south side
Main Road, Arshamomaque, New York, on land of Reese. The billboards
are twelve feet by twenty-five feet (12' x 25') , each, totaling
600 square feet of advertising area. The maximum size sign permitted
anywhere in the Town of Southold is six feet, six inches by twelve
feet, six inches (6'6" x 12'6"). The billboards are primarily
used for National Advertised Products. This sign site is located
in a business district. Route 25 is one of the heavily travelled
main arteries leading into the Town of Southold. A Cornell University
Study Survey published in 1967 indicates 82% of the visitors to
Southold Town were attracted by the rural atmosphere of the Town.
In April, 1957, the Zoning Ordinance 'p~o~/t~ite~ 'off premises
advertising. In our opinion ten years is more'than'sufficient
t/~ento permit the liquidat~on of'a non-conforming use; nor is
the Board bound by any contracts made by the applicant. Ten
year~ experience of the BOard of Appeais indicates the majority
of residents appearing before the Board and the Civic AMsociation
consider'off premises billboards to be a violat~ion of the ~etter
and spirit of the Ordinance. Benefit to the public is deemed 'of greater
importance than detriment to the applicant. Investment of the
applicant is slight compared to the detrimental effect of the bill-
board signs on surrounding property values and encouragement of the
residential use of property. Route 25 is a two lane highway, heavily
travelled, and in our opinion large signs distract motorist and
inc~se the traffic hazard.
In considering the above the Board determines that the
use will prevent the orderly and reasonable use of adjacent
properties, or the properties in adjacent use districts; that
the safety, the health, the welfare, the comfort, or the order
of the Town will be adversely affected by the proposed use and
its location; the use will not be in harmony with and pror~ote
the general purpose and intent of the Ordinance; and that the
character and probable development of uses in the district Will
be adversely affected; and that the conservation of property
values will be adversely affected.
Therefore, it was RESOLVED Suffolk Outdoor Advertising Co.,
Inc., Riverhead, New York, be DENIED permission to retain (2)
two single face billboards on property of Reese, located On the
south side Main Road, Arshamomaque, New York. Said signs shall
be removed from the premises by October 11, 1967.
