Dittman~, Secretary By investigation and public hearing the Board finds the following facts pertinent to the decision. This application is for two (2) d~uble face billboards, located on the south side Main Road, Greenport, New Yo~% on land of Cassidy. The billboards are twelve feet by twenty-five feet, (12' x 25'), each, totaling, 1200 square feet of a~vertising area. The maximum size sign per- mitted anywhere in the Town of Southold is six feet, six inches by twelve feet, six inches (6'6" x 1236"). The billboards are primarily used for National Advertised Products. This sign site is located in a residential area and is immediately adjacent to Greenport Homes, a residential housing development. Route 25 is one of the heavily-traVelled main, arteries ~eading 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,physical character and~r~l atmosphere of the Town. In'April, 1957~the Zoning) Ordinance prohibited the off ' premises~advertising. In our opinion ten years is more than' sufficient time to permit the liquidationof a non-conforming ~use; nor~ is the Board bound by,any contracts made by ~he applicant. Ten years experience of the $oard of Appeals indicates the majority of residents appearing before the Board and the Civic Association consider off premises billboards to be a violation of the letter and spirit of the Ordinance. Benefit to the public is deemed of greater importance that detriment to the applicant. Investment of the applicant is slight compared to the detrimental effect of the billboard signs on surrounding property values and encouragement of the residential use of the property. Route 25 is a two lane highway, heavily travelled, and in our opinion ~ rge signs distract motorist and increase the traffic hazard. In considering the above~e 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 promote the general purpose and intent of the Ordinance; and that the character a~d probable · a se development of uses in the district will be~e~d and that the conservation property values willbe adversely affected. Therefore, it was RESOLVED Suffolk Outdoor Advertising Co., Inc., Riverhea~ New York, be DENIED permission to retain two (2) ~ double face billboards on the land of Cassidy, located on the south side Main Road, Greenport, New York. Said signs shall be removed from the premises by October 11, 1967.
