Indicate Article, Section, Subsection and paragraph of Zoning Ordinance by numbers. Do not quote the code. Type of Appeal. An Appeal is made for: X A Variance to the Zoning Code or Zoning Map. [] A Variance due to lack of access required by New York Town Law-Section 280-A. X Interpretation of the Town Code, Article 100-31 Section C ( accessory use) X Reversal or Other - use of building is "permitted" accessory use A prior appea[ [] has [] has not been made with respect to this property UNDER Appeal No. ~ Year ~. Part A: APdEA VARIANCE REASONS (attach extra sheet as needed): (1) An undesirable change will not be produced in the CHARACTER of the neighborhood or a detriment to nearby properties if granted, because: The family is undertaking a renovation of all the buildings on the property. The existing barn is 26'8" to the ridgeline, which is over 18 feet in height and has two stories of living space inside. The owners ~vish to relocate the existing barn to make room for the pool, pool house and sauna. The barn will be reused as a recreation room with a one story bathroom addition and fireplace addition to existing structure. The existing second floor will be removed and beams exposed to the cathedral ceiling. The old barn ,,viii be preserved and restored. The original bain structure is being retained, as is, with a new foundation at same height off ground, as existing. The foundation setbacks will be made conforming. As to the Determination of the Building Department that the proposed reuse of the barn is not a "permitted use" is inco~Tect and must be reversed.- the code does not prohibit these uses, it is left to changing needs ora community whether a use is a customary accessory use. The reuse of existing culturally significant structures should be encouraged. The existing building was a barn used in agriculture, later converted to a work shop for the family when the farm was discontinued and land sold ofi: The current family has no need for a work shop and the family wishes to use the space as a private recreational space. The structure will continue to be accessory to the residential use. i00-13 Definitions "Accessory Building or Strt~cture- a building or structure detached from a principal building located on the same lot and customarily incidental and subordinate to the principal building" The barn complies with this definition. The structure is detached, on the same lot, subordinate to the dwelling. "Accessory Use" - a use customarily incidental and subordinate to the main use on the lot, whether snch "accessory use" is conducted in a principal or accessory building. The recreation room is for the single ~amily residential use- reuses the unique space found in the barn and presmwes a cultural resource (original barn). (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 existing barn is a preexisting structure previously used by the farmer. The Latsen Family (previous owners) used it as a work shop (also an accessory use), the proposed use wiI1 be private recreational space. The family wishes to retain the character of the old structure, relocate it to a conforming location and reuse it. The exterior remains as is but the interior will be made only one floor (existing 2~° floor will be removed) (3) The amount of relief requested is not substantial because: The existiug strncture will be made more conforming by relocating it to a confornaing set back. The interior will be made more confmTning by converting the space to one floor. The Barn will be used for recreation- play room. A customary and accessmy use to a single family dwelling (4) The variance will NOT have an adverse effect or impact on the physical or environmental conditions in the neighborhood or district because: The structure is existing- the original old barn ou the property. The area is no longer farmed and the reuse of an existing barn preserves the structure. (5) Has the variance been self-created? ( )Yes, or ( X )No. If not, is the construction ex/sting, as built? ( )Yes, or ( X )No. The existing structure is to be preserved. (6) Additional information about the sun-ounding topography and building areas that relate to the difficulty in meeting the code requirements: (attach extra sheet as needed) The property is residential, the house and accessory structures predate zoning. The barn has no use as a farm structure therefore the previous family converted the use to a "work shop". The present owners do not need a work shop, therefore, reuse of culturally significant structures is preferred to demolition. 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.

Box 1179 Southold, New York 11971-0959 AUG 2 2 2006 August 24, 2006 Mr. James King Chairman, Board of Trustees Southold Town P.O. Box 1179 Southold, NY 11971 Dear Mr. King: ~,UG 2 2 RE: Stanton House 522 Town Creek Lane, Southold, NY SCIM ~4-1-14.7 Southold Town is home to much of the oldest and finest architecture on Long Island, in fact in the Northeast. As these landmarks vanish, we are losing an important part of our heritage that dates from 1640. Philip and Jennifer Stanton, owners of the Southold landmark known locally as the Downs-Horton-Millard-Latson House, have requested a Wetland Permit from the Trustees to demolish the existing residence at 522 Town Creek Lane and rebuild a new dwelling. Built ca. 1860, this home has had a long and storied past making it one of the great local houses of the 19th. and 20t" centuries. Its position on Town Creek makes it a remarkably strong landmark. Many of the building's original and distinctive features survive. Prior to its purchase by the Stantons, it had remained in the same family for over 104 years. Demolishing it would destroy forever a significant addition to the built history of Southold Town and Suffolk County. The mission of the Landmarks Preservation Commission (LPC) is to help preserve the Town!s many landmarks. The Stanton house was part of an inventory of the Town's landmarks conducted by the Society for the Preservation of L.I. Antiquities (SPLIA) in 1987. It is eligible for listing in the Town's Register of Historic Landmarks. A number of benefits accrue to buildings on the Register. The LPC would have to approve any exterior alterations or the demolition of a registered landmark. Since the Stanton house is not yet a registered Town landmark, the LPC cannot take a legal position, but we feel we must take a moral stand against the proposed demolition of this landmark. We feet strongly that there are alternatives to removing it forever from the local landscape. We understand that the Stantons 2 have restored a neighboring historic house and are supportive of preserving Southold's unique architectural heritage. The LPC urges you and the Trustees to recommend to Mr. and Mrs. Stanton that they consider these substitutes to demolition: · Stabilize the exterior of the house while maintaining its historic character; · Do a complete interior renovation. Redo the interior to their taste with new mechanical systems, new kitchen and baths, etc. Stabilizing and renovating would be more cost effective than demolishing and rebuilding. The Whitaker~Thompson House on Main Street in Southold, now the Beninati real estate office, is a prime example of preserving a local landmark that was threatened by demolition. If the Stantons follow our recommendations, the LPC would support their applications before the Trustees and the Building Department. Again, the Landmarks Preservation Commission urges the Trustees to recommend alternatives to demolition to Mr. and Mrs. Stanton for their landmark house at 522 Town Creek Lane, Southold, NY. Thank you for your consideration. If you need additional information, please contact me at (631) 734-6507 or by e-mail if.qrathwohl(~msn.com.
