ZBA FILE #6294
NAME OF APPLICANT: Paul Betancourt
PROPERTY LOCATION: 1825 Aquaview Ave., (Adjacent to Long Island Sound)
East Marion CTM#22-2-6
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 its reply dated April 29, 2010 stating that this application is considered a matter for local
determination as there appears to be no significant county-wide or inter-community impact.
SUFFOLK COUNTY SOIL AND WATER: This application was referred to Suffolk County Soil and Water
Conservation District and they issued a reply dated June 8, 2009 recommending that vegetation is
maintained at all times during and after construction with native plants and grasses to prevent erosion
and control sediment. Additionally, it is recommended that gutters, downspouts and underground
drywells are installed on the buildings to address storm-water runoff. No natural resource concerns were
observed with regard to the demolition of existing one story house and construction of a new two-story
house on existing foundation to this residence.
LWRP: This application has been reviewed under Chapter 268, Waterfront Consistency review of the
Town of Southold Town Code and the Local Waterfront Revitalization Program (LWRP) Policy
Standards. Based upon the information provided on the LWRP Consistency Assessment Form
submitted to this department, as well as the records available to us, it is our recommendation that the
proposed action is CONSISTENT with LWRP policy standards and therefore is CONSISTENT with the
LWRP provided that the following recommendations are implemented; Policy 6, 6.3 (E) Protect and
restore the quality and function of the Town of Southold ecosystem: that a perpetual, natural buffer be
required seaward from the 38 foot topographical contour to the toe of the bluff (bank).
PROPERTY FACTS/DESCRIPTiON: Subject parcel is improved with a one and a half story older home,
with a non-conforming area of 21,466 sq. ft, with significant non-conforming setbacks. The lot measures
100' in width on Aquaview Avenue. With 239.35' on the eastern property line, 252.11' on the west
property line and 106.80' on Long Island Sound.
BASIS OF APPLICATION: Request for variances from Code Sections 280-124, 116A(1) and 15 based
on an application for building permit and the Building Inspector's March 24, 2009, revised November 17,

CTM: 1000-22-2-6 at 1825 Aquaview Ave., (adj. Long Island Sound) East Marion
2009 Notice of Disapproval concerning proposed additions and alterations to an existing single family
dwelling and construction of an accessory in-ground swimming pool at: (1) less than the code required
front yard setback of 40 feet, (2) less than the code required minimum side yard setback of 15 feet, (3)
total lot coverage above the code required 20%, (4) proposed construction at less than the code required
100 feet from a bluff, (5) accessory location is proposed in other than the code required rear yard.
RELIEF REQUESTED: The applicant proposes relief from the following code requirements:
(1) Section 280-124, front yard setback is proposed at 27', code requires 40'., (2) Minimum single side
yard setback proposed at 10', code requires 15', (3) Lot coverage proposed at 25.1%, code requires
20%. (4) Section 280-116A(1), proposed setback from top of the bluff is requested at 30', code requires
100'. (5) Section 280-15 accessory structure is proposed in the side yard, code requires accessory
location in the rear yard.
AMMENDED APPLICATION: During the first two hearings the Board asked the Architect and the
Applicant to produce new revised plans that would bring the entire project into greater conformance. As
a result, the final drawings of the home and accessory structure, (swimming pool) indicate downsizing of
the project, specifically reducing the size of the proposed swimming pool and roof overhang and setting
back the proposed second floor addition from the northeast corner to reduce the weight on the bluff.
These changes eliminated a variance for a total side yard setback. The relief requested AS AMENDED
consists of: 1) Front yard setback is proposed at 27 feet, code requires 40 feet; 2) Minimum single side
yard proposed at 10 feet, code requires 15 feet; 3) Lot coverage proposed at 25.1%, code requires 20%
maximum; 4) Proposed setback from the top of bluff is requested at 30 feet, code requires 100 feet
minimum; 5) accessory structure (swimming pool) is proposed in the side yard, code requires accessory
location in the rear or front yard on waterfront properties.
ADDITIONAL INFORMATION: At a Public hearing the Board requested from the agent/Architect two
specific considerations, to which he and the Applicant agreed;
1. To protect the bluff from potential damage, no heavy equipment be used in the rear yard (seaward
side) of this dwelling during construction, only smaller rubber tire excavation equipment can be used.
2. The most northerly corner of the proposed altered home be positioned back from the 30' mark or
closest setback to the bluff. This process will take the excessive loading of the corner of the home, away
from a critical setback, which is the closest corner of home to the top of the bluff. The Architect's
amended plans call for a cantilever of this corner on a structural post setback and additional eight (8)
feet from the bluff.
FINDINGS OF FACT/REASONS FOR BOARD ACTION:
The Zoning Board of Appeals held public hearings on this application on 7/30/09, 12/3/09, and 2/25/10,
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 and makes the following findings:
On the basis of testimony presented, materials submitted and personal inspections, the Board makes
the following findings:
Town Law Town Law ~267-b(3)(b)('l) Grant of the variances will not produce an undesirable change
in the character of the neighborhood or a detriment to nearby properties. The home appears to be
approximately 40+ years of age. It has sat on a high bluff open to the northeast, for many years. The
community is comprised of many of these types of homes. Some homes in the immediate area are
closer to the top of the bluff than the subject parcel. The Board has in the past few years, has several
similar applications requesting setback and lot coverage variances in this immediate area. The main
reason for these requested variances are usually the same: significant non-conformance of size of (area)
of lot, width of lot and existing lack of code required setbacks

CTM: 1000-22-2-6 at 1825 Aquaview Ave., (adj. Long Island Sound) E~st Marion
Town Law §267-b{3)(b)(2) The benefit sought by the applicant cannot be achieved by some other
method, feasible for the applicant to pursue, other than an area variance. The applicant has a very small
building area based upon present code requirements. This specific problem is caused by the location of
the subject property on the cul-de-sac "Dead End" of this Private Rd., which cuts into the building area of
the lot. This problem causes the non-conformity of at least three setbacks.
Town Law §267-b(3)(b)(3) The variance granted herein is substantial, proposing a 70% rear yard
setback from the code required rear yard setback. A 32.5% relief variance from the code required front
yard setback. A 33% relief variance from the code required single side yard setback. A 5.1% over the
code permitted 20% lot coverage, which is a 25.5% relief variance from the code. However, the
applicant and his architect have worked with the Board over the past three hearings, to lesson the
impact of several of these variances, and to eliminate one of them, thereby creating greater conformity
with the code.
Town Law §267-b{3){b){4) No evidence has been submitted to suggest that a variance in this residential
community will have an adverse impact on the physical or environmental conditions in the neighborhood.
A report from Suffolk County Soil and Water Conservation and the LWRP Coordinator have found the
bluff to be stable, and have offered recommendations to maintain its stability, which the Board has
applied as conditions to the granting of the requested relief as amended.
Town Law §267-b(3)(b)(5) The alleged difficulty has not been self created. The applicant is in need of
additions and alterations to his dwelling on his non-conforming lot with a wrap around bluff and pre-
existing non-conforming setbacks.
Town Law §267-b. Grant of the requested relief, AS AMENDED, is the minimum action necessary and
adequate to enable the applicant to enjoy the benefit of an up to date renovated home, 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
under New York Town Law 267-B, motion was offered by Member Goehringer, seconded by Member
Weisman (Chairperson), and duly carried, to
DENY THE RELIEF AS APPLIED FOR, and GRANT ALTERNATIVE RELIEF shown on the amended
site plan by Garrett Strang, Architect, dated 11/17/09 and architectural drawings by Garrett Strang,
Architect, dated received by the Board of Appeals, Feb. 11, 2010.
WITH THE FOLLOWING CONDITIONS:
1. The square footages of the proposed additions and alterations to the existing dwelling shall be
1,500 sq. ft. of living area on the first floor, 150 sq. ft. of first floor storage area, 312 sq. ft of first
floor garage area and 1,092 sq. ft. of living area on the second floor as stated in a letter from
Garrett Strang, Architect, dated 2/26/10.
2. The proposed swimming pool will include a filter backwash dry well and mechanical equipment
will be located in a soundproof container.
3. Construction will adhere to the terms described in a letter dated 2/23/10, from John Condon, P.E.
concerning the proposed plan to excavate the footings designed to remove the loading of the
proposed second story addition on the northeast corner of the renovated home back from the
bluff and ensure the structural soundness and continued use of the existing foundation.
4. The applicant will adhere to the recommendations submitted by both the Town's LWRP
Coordinator, Dated, 6/8/09, and the Technician, from Suffolk County Soil and Water
Conservation District, dated 6/17/09 to maintain bluff enhancement and stability.
5. All roof and site runoff must be directed to dry wells on site. The final grade of the site must be
sloped away from the top of the bluff, and toward the home, and the Private Rd. This grading
plan will prevent water from washing over the top of the bluff and cause top side erosion.

nonconformities under the zoning code. This action does not authorize or condone any current er 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.

Dear Mr. Strang:
As requested a visit was made to the Betancourt residence on Aquaview Drive in East Marion.
The purpose of the visit was to inspect and report on the condition of the existing building
foundation. The following is a report of the findings of that inspection.
Inspection found the building to be constructed on an 8' thick concrete masonry unit foundation
and the foundation wall is supported by an 8' thick by 16' wide poured concrete footing. The
footings are also at least 3 feet below grade. Inspection found all of the foundation walls to be in
good condition with no structurally significant cracks. Section R403.1.1 of the Residential Code of
New York State specifies a minimum footing width of 15 inches for a 2 story wood framed
structure. Based on these observations, the foundation and associated footings are capable of
supporting a two story stnJcture and are in accordance with the Residonfial Code of New York
State.
The foundation forms a 4 foot deep crawl space below the building which is deep enough to
enable easy access for workers to excavate under the footings from the crawl space side to
augment the existing foundation fooling to support any point loads that may be produced by the
structure above.
If you have any questions please call me at 298-1986.
Youm truly,
Tim Betancourt

Dear Ms. Weisman and Members of the Board:
Attached, as requested during the public heating of 12/3/09 on the above referenced matter, please find
seven (7) copies of the tbllowing:
Amended Foundation Plan
Conceptual Design Floor Plan Diagrams
Altered Conceptual Design Elevation Diagrams
The proposed work as shown on the enclosed diagrams is very modest in scale and scope and not much of
an increase from that which already exists.
You will note that the existing foundation will be reinfomed as required from the interior of the building
with no disturbance to the exterior on the Northerly or bluff side. Them will be a minimum of disturbance
to accommodate the proposed new foundation along the East side the extent of which will be a 3' deep
trench for the installation of the new footing and foundation wall. Furthermore, the existing and proposed
loads on the Northeast comer (point A) will be substantially reduced by re-engineering the structure of
that comer as a cantilever condition so as to mitigate the concerns of additional structural loading in that
location. As previously discussed, the proposed second floor addition will be stepped back 8' from the
northerly side of the existing first floor so as to move any possible structural load caused the addition
further away from the edge of the bluff'.
If you have any questions please do not hesitate to contact me at the office.

As requested, a site review was conducted at 1824 Aquaview Avenue in East Marion. The site was evaluated for
potential natural resource concerns regarding the renovations and additions to the existing house also including
garbage, pool, and terrace on landward side and landing with stairs to beach at the residence.
At the time of this site visit, June 9, 2009, there were no observed natural resource concerns. The property is
situated on the Long Island Sound and is protected by a wooden bulkhead in good condition. The existing
wooden stairs which lead to the beach, the beach, and the densely vegetated bluff are also in good condition. No
erosion was observed.
It is recommended that vegetation is maintained at all times during and after construction with native plants and
grasses to prevent erosion and control sediment. Additionally, it is recommended that gutters, downspouts, and
underground drywells are installed on the buildings to address stormwater runoff.
No natural resource concerns were observed with regard to the demolition of existing one story house and
construction of new two story house on existing foundation to this residence.
If you require further assistance in this matter please don't hesitate to contact me.

Location: 1825 Aquaview Avenue, East Marion
SCTM# 1000-22.-2-6
PAUL T. BETANCOURT #6294. Location of Property: 1825 Aquaview Avenue, East Marion;
CTM 22-2-6 (adjacent to Long Island Sound). The applicant requests Variances based on the
Building Inspector's March 24, 2009 Notice of Disapproval concerning an application for a
building permit for the following proposed construction
The proposed action has been reviewed to Chapter 268, Waterfront Consistency Review of the
Town of Southold Town Code and the Local Waterfront Revitalization Program (LWRP) Policy
Standards. Based upon the information provided on the LWRP Consistency Assessment
Form submitted to this department, as well as the records available to me, it is my
recommendation that the proposed action is CONSISTENT with the Policy Standards and
therefore is CONSISTENT with the LWRP provided that the following recommendations to
further the below listed policies are implemented.
The property consists of a wrap-around-bluff system which occurs alonq the eastern property
boundary. The bluff systems are heavily vegetated and stable (visual observation). However,
the followinq best management practice is recommended to further the below policies.
Poficy 6. Protect and restore the quality and function of the Town of Southold ecosystem
6.3 Protect and restore tidal and freshwater wet/ands.
E. Maintain buffers to ensure that adverse effects of adjacent or nearby
development are avoided:
Maintain buffers to achieve a high filtration efficiency of surface runoff
Avoid permanent or unnecessary disturbance within buffer areas.
Maintain existing indigenous vegetation within buffer areas.
if the action is approved, it is recommended that a perpetual, natural buffer be required
seaward from the 38' topographical contour to the toe of the bluff (bank). An example
definition of a Natural Vegetated Buffer is as follows:
NATURAL VEGETATED BUFFER -- a land area of a certain length and width where existing
vegetation occurs prior to the commencement of any grading or clearing activity. Vegetation
shall be maintained to achieve a minimum percent qround cover of ninety-five (95) percent. To
achieve the percent ground cover indigenous, drought tolerant vegetation shall be planted.
Survival of planted ve.qetation shall be (ninety) 90 percent for a period of three (3) years.
Maintenance activities within the buffer are limited to removing vegetation which are hazardous
to life and property, trimming tree limbs up to a height of fifteen feet (15') to maintain
viewsheds, replanting of vegetation and establishing a four foot (4') wide access path
constructed of pervious material for access to the water-body.
Figure 1. Subject parcel.
Pursuant to Chapter 268, the Southold Town Zoning Board of Appeals shall consider this
recommendation in preparing its written determination regarding the consistency of the
proposed action.

Dear Mr. Geohringer and Members of the Board:
Attached, as requested during the public hearing of 7/30/09 on the above referenced matter, please find
seven (7) copies of the following:
Revised Notice of Disapproval from the Building dept.
Amended Site Plan
Amended Elevation Profiles
Floor Plan Diagrams
As discussed, the nature of the changes include reduction in the size of the swimming pool which now has
a frout yard setback of 39'; reduction in the front yard setback relief requested to the closest comer of the
garage; Reduction of the east side roof overhang so as to eliminate the need for relief from the total side
yard requirement; Reduction in the relief requested for net lot coverage; 8' step back of the northerly
side of the proposed second floor addition so as to move any possible structural load caused the addition
further away from the edge of the bluff; Reduction in the north roof overhang to two feet so as to reduce
the relief requested for setback from the bluff. In addition, proposed structural changes to the northeast
comer of the existing dwelling creating a cantilevered comer thereby moving the structural load further
away from the edge of the bluff
If you have any questions please do not hesitate to contact me at the office.

Dear Mr. Betanoourt:
I have reviewed the plans for the proposed addition of a second floor on your residence on
Aquaview Drive in East Madon. I have also reviewed the survey of the site, which contained
elevation information for the bluff and I made a visit to the site to inspect the bluff along the shore
of Long Island Sound.
Inspection of the bluff found it to be densely vegetated and in good shape relative to erosion. The
slope of the bluff was also found to be shallower on the eastern side of the lot versus the northern
side. The slope based on the survey is approximately 2 feet in 4 feet and becomes twice as
steep, 2 feet in 2 feet, approximately 27 feet from the corner of the building.
Based on the review of these documents and inspection of the site, it is my professional opinion
that the additional weight of the proposed addition and the distance of the area where the addition
is to be made is far enough away from the edge of the bluff and the bluff slope is shallow enough
that the surcharge of the building weight on the soil falls well within the face of the bluff and will
not adversely effect the stability of the bluff.
If you have any questions please call me at 631-298-1986.

Dear Mr. Geohringer and Members of the Board:
Attached is a copy of the LWRP consistency assessment form which was filed with our application to the
Southold Town Trustees.
At that time, the LWRP coordinator recommended that the proposed application be found inconsistent
with the LWRP. In response to that recommendation, the Board of Trustees in an effort to move the
application toward consistency to the greatest extent possible imposed the following requirements:
A continuous line of staked hay bales and silt fencing be installed prior to construction.
Gutters and leaders to contain roof runoff must be installed and piped to dry wells.
Driveway and parking areas to have a pervious surface.
Proposed extensions in the northeast comer to be brought back behind the Coastal Erosion
Hazard Line.
The above requirements are the extent of changes made to the original Trustees application Site Plan and are now
reflected in the Site Plan accompanying this application to the ZBA.
If you have any questions please do not hesitate to contact me at the office.
Very truly yours,
Garrett A. Strang, R,A
