LOT B After investigation and inspection the Board finds that
applicant requests permissi~n to use lot for ~OOring dock end storage
building with hsufficient width and area on the east side of Gull
Pond Lane, ~reenport, Sew York. The findings of the Board are that
applicant is the owner of Lot 'B' as s~n on Van Tuyl's survey of January
15, 1970 and that this lot is substantillly in ex, ess or equal in size
to other lots inthe subdivisions and that the Board of Eealth and the
Planning Board have indicated that this lot is not suitable for residential
use. Eowever, it is the obligation of the Board of Appeals to permit
the applicant to Ule his property for the most reasonable use under the
Zoning Ordi~_-ce vhich, in this case, is accessory use to the ordinary
residential use.
The Board finds that strict application of the Ordinance would
produce practi~al difficulties or unnecessary hardship~ the hardship
ereated is unique end 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 the character of the neighborhood,
and will observe the spirit of the Ordinance.

Southold Town Board of Appeals
-19- February 27, 1975
There were approximately 25 people present from the
Cleaves Point Property Owners Association, the Baymen's
Association, and persons directly concerned with property
located on the East side of Gull Pond Lane, Greenport, New
York, bounded on-the north by Scott McBurney (Lot 11); on
the east by canal (branch of Gull Pond); on the south by
G. Lubrich (Lot 12); on the west by Gull Pond Lane, consist-
ing of ~our lots, for the following public hearings on
application of Reginald Hudson a/c Claire Brody and Others.
THE CHAIRM3~N: Ail of the testimony that is taken on
the first application will also apply to the other three
applications. All of these applications are approximately
the same. The proposal is to divide up some filled property
into approximately one half acre lots, in order for the
owners to obtain some use for their property, which all
Boards are pledged to defend. It was suggested that these
four lots might be created with a view to using them solely
for accessory residential use which is a permitted use for
all of you under the present Ordinance, by special exception.
In other words, the applications before us tonight will have
to be further qualified by special exception. This is what
has occasioned the large attendance here t6night.
The proposal is to create these four lots and to covenant
them by agreement filed in the County Clerk's Office that they
can~never be used for residential purposes. They can only be
used for accessory residential use. All of you are permitted
accessory residential use. The four applications are identical.
I believe if you hear one of them you will have heard all of
them.
MR. REGINALD HUDSON: They are all the same. The property
has been cut down to four lots instead of five lo~s as originally
planned.
PUBLIC HEARING: Appeal No. 1954 - 9:45 P.M. (E.D.S.T.)
Rehearing: Amended application of Reginald Hudson a/c Claire
Brody & Ors, 136 Front Street, Greenport, New York for a
variance in accordance with the Zoning Ordinance, Article III,
Section 100-30 B-9 and Bulk Schedule for permission to use
lot for mooring dock and storage building with insufficient
width and area. Location of property: E/S Gull Pond Lane,
Greenport, New York (southerly lot), bounded north: N 66° 01'
20" E 165' +; East: 135' + on W/S Canal; South: along northerly
line of Lot--12, Fordham A~res $ 60° 54' 30" W 188' +; West:
along E/S Gull Pond Lane N 68° 19' 00W 88.9' & N 43~ 00' W. 51.51'
Southold Town Board of Appeals -20- February 27, 1975
The Chairman opened the hearing by reading the application
for a variance, legal notice of hearing, affidavits attesting
to its publication in the official newspapers, and notice to
the applicant.
THE CHAIRMAN: We went over the whole subdivision this
afternoon. These lots would be larger than most othe~ lots
in the vicinity. The survey shows the proposal for all four
lots. 'This is part of the original development.
I am trying to make the whole application clear to you. I
talked to Counsel this afternoon and found that the applicant
would have to make applications for special exceptions for
the mooring of boats. It comes under uses that are permitted
in a residential area by special exception. I believe that
the thinking of the Board on these applications is that;
No. 1 - it would be necessary to apply for a special exception
to moor boats as an accessory residential use. No. 2 - it
would also be necessary to obtain Board of Health approval
on any sanitary facilities. No. 3 - site plan approval would
have to be ob rained from the Planning Board. NO. 4 - Depart-
ment of Environmental Conservation approval must be obtained.
Also, it would be necessary that the applicant file
covenants which would further prohibit their using these lots for
residential purposes now or in the future. This is some of
our thinking. I am sure that all of you realize that anybody
who owns property has a right to use it to the extent permitted
by law.
This is not to be a commercial proposition and I believe
that the Board would reduce the number of boats that can be
anchored here because of your pollution problems, and because
these lots are under 40,000 square feet in area. The Board
will probably require that no more than two boats be anchored
off these lots. You can't put anything conu~erci&lTin a
residential area. The rest of you are permitted to have
your own boats plus two others. We had an application from
Orient where a man had 18 or 20 boats and he said they were
all his, and that it was not a marina. So, in order to offset
the possibility of somebody buying one of these lots and
mooring a half dozen boats there, we will restrict the number
of boats allowed. This is some of our thinking. We are
required to allow a man to use his property. We have to find
a use for this land. Ail Courts say a man should be able to use
his property. What is proposed here is an accessory use.
We have received a letter from Mr. Eric G. Koch, Secretary
of the Cleaves Point Property Owners Association, a civic
association representing about 40 homeowners and lot owners
along the adjoining and neigb~boring Dawn Lagoon, along G~ll
Pond, and other lot and homeowners in the Cleaves Point area.
Southold Town Board of Appeals -21- February 27, 1975
Mr. Koch pointed out that"the main objection to the granting
of these variances is the fact that these lots will be
occupied by boats with people living on those boats through-
out the boating season. With the number of boats involved
it would be in essence a small marina in a residential area.
These boats would discharge all human excrements and urine
deposits into this narrow canal, which in our opinion would
constitute and create a very serious health hazard." (Letter
in file). .
We have also received a letter from Mr. Walter Honings,
Gull Pond Lane, Greenport, N. Y., stating that "one of the
most important considerations you have as members of the
Board of Appeals are the environment, the ecology and
pollution of the waters of the Town of Southold. Gull Pond
is a beautiful inlet with well cared for homes, mostly owned
by retired people of which the Township of Southold, I am
sure, is proud. You will be creating a 600 foot shanty
town. Whether you approach by road or water the docks and
storage buildings requested will be a lot more than unsightly.
They will give the impression of shacks or out-houses."
(Letter in file.)
We have also received a letter from Mr. and Mrs. Walter
Galazzi, 197 Gull Pond Lane, Greenport, N.'Y. stating that
they wish to register their opposition to the application
for variances as submitted by Reginald Hudson a/c Claire
Brody & Others. (Letter in file).
THE CHAI~: I will be glad to turn the floor over to
anyone who wishes to speak for this application.
MR. HERBERT ZIEGLER, Cleaves Point Property Owners
Association: Perhaps I can save everyone some time. I am
an attorney and there is no question in my mind that you
made a proper statement. There is one question that occurs
to me. I have not been able to ascertain whether these
contracts are contracts subject to obtaining a variance or
whether the property has been conveyed.
MR. REGINALD HUDSON: Some people still own them.
MR. ZIEGLER: Do these owners have Deeds recorded?
MR. HODSON: This was known as Fordham Acres, and they
conveyed the property.
MR. ZIEGLER: I am also cognizant of the fact that you
can make severe restrictions. I think this thing can be
amicably settled. I would like to propose that the Board
take it upon themselves to restrict to one boat with livable
quarters. There is a difference between that and a day
sailer or an outboard.
Southold Town Board of Appeals -22-
February 27, 1975
THE CHAIRMAN: You are suggesting that there be no more
than one boat anchored at each lot with living quarters?
Then, we get into what is considered to be living quarters.
MR. ZIEGLER: You can't live on an outboard or a day
sailer without toilet facilities, which is the main problem.
They have used the word "dock". This is an 80 foot wide
channel, if a man has a 54 foot boat out there, I would
suggest, that they have in mind "dockage" at a bulkhead.
If anyone were to construct a 40 or 50 foot dock in there...
THE CHAIRMAN: No docks is what you are saying.
MR. ZIEGLER: I think it should be "dockage". There
would be no way of mooring. If you have a 30 foot boat with
12 feet of chain and a 15 foot line, there would be no room
to swing.
THE CHAIRMAN: This use is permitted in Residential.
100-30 No. 9 - Boat docking facilities: for the docking,
mooring or accommodation of non-commercial boats subject to
the following requirement: "There shall be docking or
mooring facilities for no more than two (2) boats other
than those owned and used by the owner of the premises for
his personal use.
MR. ZIEGLER: I am not opposed to their right to use the
property. I am more concerned with 8 boats along that almost
stagnant canal. It is going to cause so much pollution that
you will have the same problem that they have at Sterling Basin.
Everyone is entitled to have friends but I am trying to point
out that 8 boats as a permanent thing is a lot of boats. If
they are owners, I am not trying to interfere with their use.
THE CHAIRMAN: If we can define boats on which you can
live and confine it to one livable boat on each lot you would
be agreeable to that?
MR. ERIC KOCH, Cleaves Point Property Owners Association:
No one would object to one livable boat. We are afraid that
there might be 10 to 15 boats moored there without toilet
hblding tanks. People will visit them, cars will be parked
along the road, there will be shacks built, but our main
concern is pollution.
MRS. SCOTT McBURNEY, Gull Pond Lane, Greenport, N. Y.:
It's already there.
MR. KOCH: We don't want any more of it.
$outhold Town Board of Appeals
-23- February 27,'1975
MR. ZIEGLER: It empties into Gull Pond. It's a much
wider body of water. The Town has seeded with oysters.
We are concerned with pollution on Gull Pond. I don't
know of any pollution in the canal but I can understand
how it can develop. Whatever empties out empties out into
Gull Pond. It does'nt empty out into the Sound or the Bay.
Would you mind the word "dockage"?
MR. HUDSON: You could not built a dock if you wanted
to because the previous owners still retain the bottom. I
have n~ objection to the word "dockage".
MR. WALTER HONINGS: There are two things that we are
objecting to that we would like to see avoided. Up at the
end of the channel you have a situation that we are afraid
will be repeated on each of these lots. At the far end
there is one piece of property with four boats set perpendi-
cular to the end. If that is done for 700 or 800 feet it
will make a very small channel, and it looks like the devil.
Also, they put up a metal gazebo. When the wind blew it down
Mr. Germansky had a new one put up but he left the old one
lying there. We are afraid of this sort of thing appearing
for 600 feet along the road.
THE CHAIRMAN: We would want somethiqg substantial
that would not blow away. Most of these outbuildings that
are put up will blow away unless you anchor them.
MR. V. GERMANSKY: The company from whom I bought that
gazebo said it would stand winds of up to 100 miles per hour.
We have replaced it. I don't think anything will blow this
thing down. Mr. Honings made the comment that the gazebo
is still there. It is but I do want to save those panels.
I would like to have the time to replace them.
THE CHAIRMAN: We don't have the authority to tell you
what to do with a building that fell down.
MR.~ HONINGS: We are really trying to protect ourselves
from something like this happening again.
THE CHAIRMAN: How large a building do you think an
outbuilding should be?
MR. KOCH: That size is alright.
MR. HUDSON: It's 12' x 14', or maybe 12' x 16' or 12' x
18', something along that line.
Southold Town Board of Appeals
-24- February 27, 1975
MRS. SCOTT McBURNEY: We are immediate neighbors. We
had a situation where a man rented boats. They did not
keep the place clean. That's what we are afraid of here,
too. Also, if someone has a houseboat with a toilet, that
concerns us.
T~E CHAIRMAN: -Anything that they do will be subject
to the Board of Health, not to us.
MRS. McBURNEY: There is an odor all around my boat.
MR. RALPH CROAKHILL: I am the second house in. We
have had the water tested. There is no pollution. Our
children swim there. I own the houseboat up there, I have
a holding system. I have one friend and he has a holding
system. This has been going on for ten years. There is an
algae that's formed by nature and is not polluting.
MR. HELMER KENT, Cleaves Point Property Owners Assoc.:
We are primarily concerned with ecology. It will be up to
D.E.C. to give final approval on this. There is no way of
putting in a sanitary system. Unfortunately, an ordinance
on holding tanks is no longer in force, it!s been eliminated.
If you get a half dozen boats there without holding tanks,
it will create a pollution problem.
MR. BOB HAMILTON, Baymen's Association: I am President
of the Baymen's Association. Our Association is opposed to.
any mooring or any more houseboats in the area because right
now Gull Pond is a good area for clams. We think people
have a right to use their property but not to expand where
they will create more pollution, and if someone is living
on a boat they will pollute. Things get thrown overboard.
MR. VICTOR OSTLING, Cleaves Point Property Owners Assoc.:
I also live on Gull Pond. I have had most of my questions
answered but may I look at the map?
THE CHAIRMAN: Yes, you may.
MR. OSTLING: IL this four individual owners, or one
owner?
THE CHAIRMAN: A group owns it.
MR. OSTLING: Is this property in the name of that group?
THE CHAIRMAN: They want to make it four lots and sell it.
the~p~esent time it's not four lots. ~
$outhold Town Board of Appeals -25- February 27, 1975
MR. KOCH: If it were restricted to one livable boat,
we would not object.
MR. HONINGS: Would it be possible to put something
into the approval, something to the effect that this land
would be made to look presentable rather than to have a lot
of trucks and cars parked there?
T~E CHAIRMAN: I think one of the things the Planning
Board m~ght do would be to have a driveway created, and the
applicants mi~t be able to do some landscaping.
MR. STEVEN GERMANSKY: With one livable boat you might
preclude a family from living together. I think two boats
would be satisfactory so as not to preclude a family from
living together. Less than two boats could break up a
family.
THE CHAIRMAN: Does your family live on more than one
boat?
MR. GERM3~NSKY: It's difficult to define.
MR. KOCH: We all know that they have. toilet facilities
and sink facilities.
MR. GERMANSKY: Many people have a sailing boat and a
power boat.
MRS. LORRAINE TERRY:
decision?
Does D.E.C. review this after your
THE CHAIRMAN: It's automatic in order for them to use
their property. We don't have any power over them or they
over us.
MR. ZIEGLER: They say they have final control but I
wouldn't bet on it.
MR. HARRY ARMSTRONG, Cleaves Point Property Owners Assoc.:
Could they build a bulkhead?
THE CHAIRMAN: It is their privilege.
MR. OSTLING: The ground is so soft. I don't think they
could do it.
MR. KOCH: There could be a catwalk to a float.
THE CHAIRMAN: How they get on and off is immaterial t~ ......
this hearing.
Southold Town Board of Appeals -26-
February 27, 1975
DR. M. RAUSCH: I live on one of the boats on the end.
There is no pollution. Pollution is more important to us,
to those of us who live on a boat, than to those who live
in a house. We seem to have the means to limit to one
boat per property, and I want to discuss these specific
recommendations, but. I..don't believe pollution comes from
boats. 'Twenty boats that have holding tanks do not cause
pollution. I don't know if you can limit to holding tanks.
However, we all have the same aims in common: We can do it
legally and morally. We can see that no boat pollutes our
Gull Pond. That would do more than stopping more land from
being used. If that land is made pretty, that would not
detract; and if boats are there that don't pollute, we will
all have gained our aims.
MR. KOCH: How could you control it?
THE CHAIRMAN: I think Dr. Rausch has a wonderful idea
but this is not the time to discuss it.
MR. KOCH: If they don't have bulkheads, how would they
get their boats there?
MR. STEVEN GERMANSKY: There is a question of navigable
waters. That is a dead-end thing. The largest boat I know of
is a 42 foot boat. That can turn around in a space of 45 feet.
MR. SCOTT McBURNEY: I have been there for seven years.
We would not complain if they conformed to the residential
nature of their property but we would not want to see a lot
of storage buildings put in there. It would deteriorate our
property. If we have too many boats it would obstruct
ingress and egress.
MR. A. TYRRELL: I belong to the Southold Town Baymen's
Association. I want to support my President. We.passed a~
unanimous vote against anything that would interfere with
life. We are concerned with the natural biological growth.
THE CHAIRMAN: These people can use their property and
these are accessory uses by right.
MR. TYRRELL: From a Bayman's viewpoint you are taking
a living away. This is a livelihood. My position is that I
must support my President.
Southold Town Board of Appeals
-27- February 27, 1975
MR. BOB HAMILTON: We try to make sure that the Town
creeks don't become all polluted. If you can find a satis-
factory solution where these people could have their boats
there and their sheds, and guarantee that they would not
pollute the water, we would not object. But because they
are human beings , they will pollute the water.
MR. OSTLIN~: I would like to answer the Doctor.
Visiting boats come from the outside and anchor overnight.
It is almost impossible to prevent that. Whether they have
holding ~anks or not, I don't know.
THE CHAIRMAN: You might take that up with the Town
Board.
MR. THEODORE VAN HYNING: I do believe that all people
are entitled to the use of their land and that includes
present owners who have put in considerable money to purchase
in a residential area. I do think some thought should be given
to this. .I think that the people who are already established
here have some rights also. This is a situation that would
detract from a residential are~, especially when the lots
are not subdivided lots, as I understand it.
MR. HUDSON: The folks who are making application have
other lots where they intend to build homes.of their own.
We did not realize they would have this problem.
THE CHAIRMAN: The true owners have other livable
property in this area?
MR. HONINGS: It's on our canal directly opposite
McBurney's.
MR. HUDSON: So, they are interested in the character
of the neighborhood as well as you folks.
MR. KOCH: You
beam anchored there.
on that side too.
could not have a boat with a 12 foot
They could moor another two boats
MR. RAY KLEMPNER: I have recently built on Gull ~ond.
Are those lots in conjunction with Cleaves Point Association?
Cleaves Point Association has inland lots. When the house
sells ....
THE CHAIRMAN: This is a jointly owned piece of property.
MR. KLEMPNER: Is this the same thing? Is this used in
conjunction and thought of as in conjunction? I thought from
the discussion that these people are vitally interested
because they do have residential property in the area. It is
not adjacent but like Cleaves Point is a tie-in so it can~be
sold separately later on.
Southold Town Board of Appeals -28-
February 27, 1975
MR. HONINGS: The purpose of making this is so it can be
used by other people. They can sell it to anyone they want.
MR. ZIEGLER: I would take the word "dock" out and say
"mooring in front of and adjacent to property" if the Board
deems it fair and just particularly in view of the Town's
own interest. They own the land under the water.
MR. HUDSON: When I spoke to one of the previous owners
he mentioned that they retain the right.
M/~. ZIEGLER: I am not talking about the canal. I am
talking about Gull Pond; Gull Pond is owned by the Town of
Southold. I certainly don't think you would want to go
beyond two boats. Property is frequently sold, and rapidly,
so while these people may be good neighbors, we don't know
about future owners. I don't want to give the impression
that I don't agree that they have their right to use this
property but because of other factors I would hope that the
Board would put restrictions on it. If the restrictions are
fair and equitable, we are not going to complain.
MR. STEVEN GERMANSKY: The Army Corps of Engineers will
not allow a channel to be blocked. Therefore, I don't think
the change of words matters.
THE CHAIRMAN: I think we will have ~o follow Mr. ziegler's
suggestion. I believe everyone has had the opportunity to
be heard "for and against" this application.
The Board of Appeals designated, for purposes of clarifi-
cation, that the southerly lot (Appeal No. 1954) shall be
known as LOT "A"; the south center lot (Appeal No. 2005) shall
be known as LOT "B"; the north center lot (Appeal No. 2006)
shall be known as LOT "C"; the northerly lot (Appeal No. 2007)
shall be known as LOT "D"; all as shown on Van Tuyl survey
dated January 15, 1970.
LOT A - After investigation and inspection the Board finds
~-~ applicant requests permission to use lot for mooring
dock and storage building with insufficient width and area
on the east side of Gull Pond Lane, Greenport, New York.
The findings of the Board are that applicant is the owner
of Lot "A" as shown on Van Tuyl's survey of January 15, 1970
and that this lot is substantially in excess or equal in size
to other lots in the subdivision; and that the Board of Health
and the Planning Board have indicated that this lot is not
suitable for residential use. However, it is the obligation
of the Board of Appeals to permit the applicant to use his
property for the most reasonable use under the Zoning Ordinance
which, in this case~ is accessory use to the ordinary
residential use.
Southold Town Board of Appeals -29- February 27, 1975
The Board finds that strict application of the Ordinance
would produce practical difficulties or unnecessary hardship;
the 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 the character of the neighborhood, and will observe
the spirit of the Ordinance.
On motion by Mr. Doyen, seconded by Mr. Hulse, it was
R~8OLVED, Reginald Hudson a/c Claire Brody & Others,
136 Front Street, Greenport, New York be GRANTED permission
to set aside LOT "A" as applied for in accordance with
applicant's metes and bounds as described in the survey
referred to above (survey of Van Tuyl dated January 15, 1970),
subject to the following conditions:
Covenanted agreements restricting or prohibiting
this property for residential use, without prior
approval of the Board of Appeals, shall be filed
in the County Clerk's Office.
That before the applicant may be permitted dockage
and mooring privileges for small boats as an
accessory use a special exception shall be applied
for from the Board of Appeals.
Site plan approval shall be obtained from the -
Planning Board.
Any sanitary facilities installed on this property
shall be subject to the approval of the Board of Health.
That this approval shall be subject to applicant
obtaining proper documents from the State and County
Environmental Control Commissions.
Vote of the Board: Ayes:- Messrs: Gillispie, Grigonis,
Hulse, Doyen.

February 27, 1975
The Chairman opened the hearing by reading the applica-
tion for a variance, legal notice of hearing, affidavits
attesting to its publication in the official newspapers, and
notice to the applicant.
(Ail testimony taken in the previous hearing concerning
LOT "A" (Appeal No. 1954) also applies to this hearing
~oncerning LOT "B" (Appeal No. 2005).
LOT B ~' After investigation and inspection the Board finds that
app-i~cant requests permission to use lot for mooring dock and
storage building with insufficient width and area on the east
side of Gull Pond Lane, Greenport, New York. The findings of
the Board are that applicant is the owner of Lot "B" as shown
