BASIS OF APPLICATION: Requests for Variances under Sections 280-116B and 280-124,
based on the building Inspector's July 31, 2009 amended Notice of Disapproval concerning
a deviation from the plans approved under ZBA #6159, requesting a height increase of the
dwelling, which reconstruction is: (1) less than 10 feet from a single side yard, (2) less than
25 feet total, combined side yards and (3) less than 75 feet from the bulkhead.
LWRP: TOWN CODE CHAPTER 268: A letter dated October 2, 2009 from Mark Terry,

FINDINGS OF FACT
Page 2 of 4 - October 22, 2009
ZBA File # 6320 - Robert Swing, Applicant
Property Location: 4295 E~ay Shore Rd., Greenport
CTM # 1000-53-6-24
The Zoning Board of Appeals held a public hearing on this application on October 1, 2009,
at which time written and 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 applicant requests authorization from the
Board for the deviation of the Finished First Floor Elevation, regarding proposed Plans for
an addition and alterations submitted, modified from that approved under ZBA File # 6159
for reconstruction in place and in kind of the pre-existing nonconforming single-family
dwelling. The reCOnstruction of the pre-existing dwelling requires the following code setback
requirements: (1)'~ single side yard less than 10 feet, (2)less than 25 feet total combined
side yards, and (3)less than 75 feet from the bulkhead.
ADDITIONAL INFORMATION: The applicant and property was granted under ZBA File
#6159, an area v~riance for total lot coverage of 26.4% and a single side yard setback of
5.7 feet, a total si,de yard setback of 11.5 feet for a proposed addition and alterations to this
pre-existing non-(~onforming one story frame house. Due to FEMA requirements, the
finished first floor bf the pre-ex~sbng house and proposed construction must be raised 2 feet.
This deviation from the proposed plans approved under ZBA #6159 has required the
applicant to come before the Board for this application, requesting approval for these
changes, also in: place and in kind of the pre-existing nonconforming dwelling under
reconstruction.
REASONS FOR 'BOARD ACTION: On the basis of testimony presented, materials
submitted and pe~sonal inspections, the Board makes the following findings:
1. Town Law .~267-b(3~(b~(3)(1~. Grant of the variances will not produce an undesirable
change in the cl'{~racter of the neighborhood or a detriment to nearby properties. The
reconstruction of..the pre-existing dwelling and the proposed addition fits in with the
character of the n~ighboring community.
2. Town Law §267-b(3)(b)(2). The benefit sought by the applicant cannot be achieved by
some method, feasible for the applicant to pursue, other than area variances. Due to FEMA
requirements the ~pplicant is required to raise the finished first floor of the pre-existing non-
conforming dwellihg by 2 feet which consequently results in a reconstruction of the whole
dwelling. Due to FEMA requirements the applicant is also required to raise the proposed
addition finished first floor elevation by 2 feet, which will require an authorization from the
Board for the deviation from the approved plans of raising the finished floor height under
ZBA file #6159. ~The dwelling exists, and will remain, in its pre-existing non-conforming
location and any reconstruction or alteration will require a request for an area variance.
3. Town Law §267-b(3)(b)(3). The authorization of the Board to grant the deviation in
height on the proposed plans is not substantial because the addition is still within the Code's
height requiremeht, Although the variance requested for the side yard setback with respect
Page 3 of 4 - October 2.2, 2009
ZBA File # 6320 - Robert Swing, Applicant
Property Location: 4295'Bay Shore Rd., Greenport
CTM # 1000-53-6-24
to the reconstructs!on of the pre-existing dwelling is substantial being less than 1 foot, and
substantial with a,i bulkhead setback at 31 feet, the change in height by two feet is not
substantial with regard to these setbacks, it continues to be substantial.
4. Town Law §267-b(3)(b)(5). The difficulty has been self created with respect to the
submittal of the proposed construction on revised plans. The applicant's lack of knowledge
of the governmental agency, FEMA, and its jurisdictions and requirements with respect to
FEMA Building Codes has resulted in the re-evaluation of the application by the Board of
ZBA file #6159 under the applicant's request for changes. Had the applicant been
knowledgeable of the FEMA jurisdictions and requirements with respect to his property and
proposed additioni then these FEMA requirements may have been addressed under ZBA
file #6159 and the need to appear before the Board again may have been avoided. The
difficulty has not been self created with respect to the side yard setback and bulkhead
setback for the i reasons noted under ZBA File #6159 related to the pre-existing
nonconforming location of the dwelling.
5. Town Law §267-b(3)(b)(4). No evidence has been submitted to suggest that variances
to maintain a sin~!e side yard setback of less than 1 foot and a setback of 31+/- feet from
the bulkhead to the pre-existing non-conforming dwelling after reconstruction in place and in
kind in this residential community will have an adverse impact on the physical or
environmental conditions in the neighborhood.
6. Town Law §267-b. Grant of the relief requested is the minimum action necessary and
adequate to enab!e the applicant to enjoy the benefit of a proposed addition, alteration and
reconstruction of his pre-existing dwelling, 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 undbr New York Town Law 267-B, motion was offered by Member Schneider,
seconded by Chairman Goehringer, and duly carried, to
GRANT the variances as applied for, as shown on the amended Survey by John T.
Metzger dated Ju!~ 13, 2009 and the Architectural Plans A-1 dated 6-29-09, A-0 and A-3
dated 9-10-08 revised 7-28-09 by Architecnologies, subject to the following Conditions:
1. The applicant ~!hall abide the decision(s) Granted in ZBA File #6159 alon.q with those
modified in this deisision and shown on the above-noted diagrams/plans.
2. Applicant shal'l install a drywell system(s) capable of receivin.q and dispersin.q
under.qround all waste water from the proposed outdoor shower, as per the requirements of
the Stormwater Drainage Code of the Town of Southold.
That the above conditions be written into the Buildin.q Inspector's Certificate of Occupancy,
when issued.

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
alteration that doeS not increase the degree of nonconformity.

FINDINGS, DELIBERATIONS AND DETERMINATION
MEETING OF JUNE 16, 2008
ZB # 6159 - Application of Robert Swing
Property Location: 4295 Bay Shore Road, Greenport
Waterway: Shelter Island Sound at P~c0nic Bay
CTM 53-6-24
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 steps under SEQRA.
SUFFOLK COUNTY ADMINISTRATIVE CODE: This application was
referred as required under the Suffolk County Administrative Code Sections
A 14-14 to 23, and the Suffolk County Department of Planning issued a reply
dated May 28, 2008 stating that this application is considered a matter for
local determination as there appears to be no significant county-wide or inter-
community impact.
LWRP DETERMINATION: On August 15, 2005 a letter was been submitted
to the Board of Trustees by the Town LWRP Coordinator under Code Chapter
268, confirming reviews and stating the proposed construction of a second'
story addition to the existing single-family structure is consistent, based on
the information provided with the Assessment form, as well as records
submitted to the department that a new septic system will be installed and a
French drain will be installed along the southern side yard of the property,
and establishment of a non,disturbance buffer along the landward side of the
existing wood bulkhead. Based on the above, it is the decision of the Board of
Appeals that the proposed construction, with a new Septic system and French
drain along the southern side yard of the property proposed to be installed,
and establishment of a non-disturbance buffer along the landward side of the
existing wood bulkhead, for this current request (amended since the 2005
Page 2 - June 16, 2008
ZBA # 6159 - Robert Swing
CTM 53'6-24
plan) to construct an addition on the west (front yard) side of the home, is
consistent.
PROPERTY FACTS/DESCRIPTION Applicant's single-family dwelling is
located on a non-conforming lot of 10,063 square feet bordered by Island View
Lane, Bay Shore Road, and Shelter Island Sound.
BASIS OF APPLICATION: This is a request for Variances under Section
280-124, based on the Building Inspector's March 27, 2008 Notice of
Disapproval concerning a proposed (westerly) addition and alterations to an
existing (nonconforming) dwelling with a single'side yard at less than 10 feet,
total side yards at less than 25 feet, and lot coverage exceeding the code
limitation of 20%. The property is nonconforming with 10,063 square feet
lot. Following the proposed~mstr~ction, the single family dwe~!ll have
a single Side yard setbac~f 5.7 fe?~total side setback ~ 11.5 feet (5.7 and
5 8 feet), and a total lot coverage of 26.4 percent.
AREA VARIANCE RELIEF REQUESTED: The applicant is requesting
setback variances for a single side yard of 5.7 feet and a total side yard of
11.5 feet. The applicant also needs relief from the 20% lot coverage limitation
allowed by law, as this is a request is for a maximum of 26% lot coverage
(26.4% with the addition and remaining walk included on the calculation), as
shown on the Peconic Surveyors, P.C. survey map amended April 8, 2008.
the size of the addition approx. 17.5.feet by 36.2 feet wide.
ADDITIONAL INFORMATION: The applicant stated he originally wanted
to place the addition as a second-floor above the original dwelling, but the
application was turned down by the NYS Department of Environmental
Conservation. Therefore, the applicant proceeded to file applications with this
· amended plan for an addition to the dwelling ac the front adjacent co Bay
Shore Road.
REASONS FOR BOARD ACTION: On the basis of testimony presented,
materials Submitted and personal inspections, the Board makes the following
findings:
1. Town Law ~267'b(3)(b)(3)(1). Grant of the variances will not produce an
undesirable change in the character of the neighborhood or a determent to
properties. The applicant wishes to enlarge his home for more living space.
His home is in keeping with the neighborhood. The lot is only 10,063 square
feet, of which only 6,834 square feet is upland area and very small. The
addition as proposed fits in with the character of the neighboring community,
Page 3 - June 16, 200~
6159- Robert Sw~hg J~/~ 0~9~
ZBA
CTM 53'6-24 ~O'q~ O,~~
and as a result will exhibit more conforming setbacks at 5.7 feet on the
southerly single side, and 11.5 feet on the total sides, since the existing
dwelling is only one foot from the property line.
2. Town Law §267'b(3)(b)(3)(2). The benefit sought by the applicant cannot
be achieved by some method feasible to the applicant to pursue, other than
an area variance because the property m pre-existing, non-conforming with
respect to the Zoning Code and is land is reduced in s~ze, as a result of
wetlands along the eastern-border adjacent to Shelter Island Sound. Due to
the NYS DEC's denial of the original proposal, the applicant's only choice is
to build on the front of the house, which will give more protection and a
greater setback from the wetlands, and downsizing the overall side yard
setbacks, reducing the amount of non'conformity with respect to zoning. The
preexisting lot coverage is 19%, where 20% is the maximum permitted. In
order to conform to the code, only 30.2 square feet would be permitted.
Therefore the applicant must seek a variance for relief for any addition.
3. Town Law §267-b(3)(b)(3)(3). The amount of relief requested is not
substantial because: The side yard setbacks of the new addition are more
conforming, greater than the existing nonconformity of the dwelling. The new
setbacks will be 5.7 feet instead of the one foot setback, and the 'total side
yards will be 11.5 feet instead of the original total side yards of 6.1 feet. The
lot coverage is 6% over the allowable 20% which is not substantial because
the building lot area ~s smaller than the square footage of the entire lot size,
after deducting the wetland area from the lot size calculations required by
the Code.
4. Town Law .q267-b(3)(b)(3)(5). The variance granted herein is not
substantial because of the non-conforming size of the lot and the applicant's
trying to stay as close to the ~difficulty in placing a more livable home in a
quite small area.
5. Town Law §267-b(3)(b)(3)(4). Grant of the requested relief is the minimum
action necessary and adequate to enable the applicant to enjoy the benefit of
a more spacious home, while preserving and protecting the character of the
neighborhood.
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 Oliva, seconded by Member Weisman, and duly carried, to
ZcB~ ~536.165.92~ Robert Swing ~,_J[~O

Grant the variances, as applied for~ shown on the April 8, 2008
amended survey prepared by Peconic Surveyors, P.C. and
Architectural Plans A-l,. A-2, A-3, A-4, last dated 9-14-07. by
Architecnologies.
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 alteration that does not increase the degree of
nonconformity.

IN THE MA~'rTER OF ROGER AND LESLIE WALZ, APPLICANTS, FOR AN INTERPRETATION
OF THE CODE OF THE TOWN OF SOUTHOLD, Article XXIV Section 100-242A, entitled
"Nonconforming buildings with conforming uses", to reverse the Building Inspector's
determination rendered in the May 2, 2001 Notice of Disapproval.
BASIS OF APPEAL: Appellants Roger and Leslie Walz are appealing the Building
Inspector's May 2, 2001, Notice of Disapproval for a building permit to construct a second-
story addition to a one-family dwelling. The May 2, 2001 Notice of Disapproval recites the
following:
"Proposed addition not permitted pursuant to Article XXIV Section I00.242A which
states,
Ndthing In this Article shag be deemed to prevent the remodeling, reconstruction
or'renovation of a nonconforming building containing a conforming use, provide
that such action does not create any new nonconformance or increase the degree
of nonconformance with regard to the regulations pertaining to such buildings.
Existing structure has a nonconforming setback of 3 feet from the easterly side lot
line and 6~i~ feet in the westerly side line. The addition of the second floor represents an
Increase in the degree of nonconformity."
PROPERTY DESCRIPTION:
The subject property is a nonconforming lot, containing approximately .25 acres, located
at 2505 Old Orchard Road, East Marion; SCTM 100-37-6-5. The lot is improved with
applicants' house, which is a one-story building with side yards that are nonconforming
under Section 100-242A for nonconforming lots, which requires a minimum side yard
setback of 10 ff. and a total of 25 ft. for both side yards. The building has a nonconforming
setback of 3 feet from the eastedy side lot line and 6.5 feet in the westerly side line.
RELIEF REQUESTED:
Appllcant~ request the Board of Appeals to reverse the Building Inspector's determinalion
that the proposed second-story addition over the "footprint" of the existing hnuse
represents" an increase in the degree of nonconformity" per Section 242A. They contend
Page 2 - January 24,
Appl. No, 5039 - R. and L. Walz
t000.37-6-5 at East Marion
that the Building inspector improperly applied Section 242A, and request an Interpretation
of the code provision. Applicants request the Board of Appeals to reveme the Building
Inspector's determination on the following grounds:
1. Applicants maintain the second-story addition does not constitute an "increase
in the degree of nonconformity" because the addition "goes up and not out", and
is therefore no closer to the lot line.
2. Applicants contend that the degree of nonconformity should be measured as the
horizontal distance from the "footprint" of the existing nonconforming building to
the property line. Applicants acknowledge that existing side yard set backs are
nonconforming and that the second-story addition would retain the nonconforming
setbacks. However, applicants maintain that there is no change in the degree of
nonconformity since "nothing is closer than that which exists" and therefore the
code requirement is met.
WHEREAS, the following code provisions are pertinent to this request:
I. Article XXIV Section 242A, Nonconforming buildings with conforming uses, reads:
Nothing in this Article shall be deemed to prevent the remodeling, reconstruction
or renovation of a nonconforming building containing a conforming use, provided
that such action does not create any new nonconformance or increase the degree
of nonconformance with regard to the regulations pertaining to such buildings.
II. Section 100-13 Definition of the zoning code,
NONCONFORMING BUILDING OR STRUCTURE - A building or structure legally
existing on the effective date of this chapter or any applicable amendment thereto
but which falls, by reason of such adoption, revision or amendment, to conform to
the present district regulations for any prescribed structure or building
requirement, such as front, side or rear yards, building height, building areas or lot
coverage, lot area per dwelling unit, dwelling units per building, number of parking
and loading spaces, etc., but which Is continuously maintained after the effective
date of these regulations.
WHEREAS, The Zoning Board of Appeals held public hearings on the matter on November
15, 2001 and November 29, 2001, at which time written and oral evidence were presented.
Based upon all testimony, documentation, personal observations of members of the board
and other evidence, the Zoning Board finds the following facts to be true and relevant:
1. The head of the Building Department testified that an increase in the degree of
nonconformance will occur if the new construction or renovation to a nonconforming
building Is located at/ or closer to the pre-existing nonconforming set back line. As
example, he stated that if the nonconforming building has a side yard setback of 3 feet,
Page 3 - January 24,
Appl. No. 5039 - R. and L. Walz
1000-37-6-5 at East Marion
and the proposed single-story addition is set back 3 feet 10 inches, there would be no
increase in the degree of the building's nonconformance. Similarly, he said, the
Department believes that a second-story addition over the exact footprint of a
nonconforming building would increase the degree of nonconformity, but if the second-
story addition were set back more than existing footprint, for example 3 feet 10 inches,-no
increase in the degree of nonconformance would occur, and the code provision of Section
242A would be met.
2. In examining the provisions set forth in 242A, the Board finds that the degree of a
bulldintq's existing nonconformity is clearly established by the three-dimensional spaoe~
which does not comnlv with the regulations pettaininE to such buildlnRs. For example, if
the code requires a minimum, side yard set back of 10 feet, and a single-story building's
has a nonconforming set back of 3 feet, the degree of nonconformity is the 10 ft. by 20 ft.
area, or 200 sq. ft. space which occupies the 10-foot, non-permitted building, side yard
area. The degree of existing nonconformance has been established by the space which
does not comply with the zoning regulations.
3. The Board finds that pursuant to section 242A, if the new construction, remodeling,
reconstruction, or addition, to a nonconforming building creates a new area of
nonconfor~mance, where none existed before, the degree of a building's nonconformity will
be increased. For example, if the bulldlng's nonconforming 10 ft. by 20 ff. dimensions are
expanded~ any part of the new construction which encroaches into the 10-foot, non-
permlttedbuilding, side yard area would create a new area of nonconformity, where none
existed before, and would increase the degree of nonconformity. Similarly, if a second-
floor were added straight up over the nonconforming t0 ft. by 20 ft. area, the addition
would create a new area of nonconformity, where none existed before, and would increase
the degree of nonconformance.
4. Although applicants contend that the proposed second-floor addition over the
buildlng's existing footprint does not increase the degree of nonconformity, we find no
legal basis for this conclusion. The second-floor addition will increase the building's
established degree of nonconformity because there would be more area, more square
footage, more volume, and more building within the 10-foot, non-permitted side yard area.
Simply because the second floor is built on top of a nonconforming footprint does not
grandfather it or negate the fact that it will create a new area of nonconformity, where none
existed before.
5. The Board agrees With the Building Inspector's determination that the appellants'
proposed second-story addition represents an increase in the degree of nonconformity.
6. The Board finds that there is no basis in Section 242A to substantiate the Building
Department's position that permits a nonconforming structure to expand into a
nonconforming area If the expansion Is an inch less or a foot less than the existing
bulldlng's nonconforming setback. This approach permits new nonconforming
construction where none existed before. This position could be viewed as arbitrary
Page 4 - January 24, 200.
Appl. No. 5039 - R. and L. Walz
1000-37-6-5 at East Marion
because the three dimensional space within which a structure is permitted to be built on a
lot is defined by the town code regulations governing building set backs, maximum height
and bulk.
NOW, ON MOTION BY MEMBER TORTORA, SECONDED BY CHAIRMAN GOEHRINGER, BE
IT
RESOLVED, that the Board of Appeals Interprets Article XXIV, Section 242A to
mean that:
Remodeling, reuonstruction or enlargement of a nonconforming building with a
conforming use is permitted provided that such action does not create and new
nonconformance or increase the degree of nonconformance with regard to the
regulations pertaining to such buildings,
An increase in the deqree of nonconformance will occur if the remodeling,
reconstruction or enlargement creates a vertical or horizontal expansion of the
established pre-existing dimensions of the nonconforming building, and the new
construction does not comply with the regulations pertaining to such buildings,
and/or if the new construction creates a new area of nonconformance, either
vertically or horizontaUy, where none existed before.
NOW, THEREFORE BE IT FURTHER
RESOLVED to DENY the applicants' request to reverse the Building Inspector's
determination.
VOTE OF THE BOARD: AYES: Members Goehringer (Chairman), Tortora, Collins, and
Homing. NAY: Member Dinlzio (voting against the decision, for the reason that the
decision goes beyond the authority of the Zoning Board of Appeals.)
