(CONTINUED ON PAGE TWO) DATED: February 4, 1986. Form ZB4 (rev. 12/81) CHAIRMAN, SOUTHOLD TOWN ZONING BOARD OF APPEALS Page 2 Appeal No. 3405 Decision Rendered January 21, 1986. Matter of STAMATIOS AND ELENI RAPANAKIS 4. Article XI, Section lO0-118 of the Zoning Code provides as follows: ...Unless otherwise authorized as a special exception by the Board of Appeals, ...the following provisions shall apply to nonconforming uses: ...D. Whenever a nonconforming use of a building or premises has been discontinued for a period of more than two (2) years or has been changed to a higher classification or to a conforming use, anything in this section to the contrary notwithstanding, the nonconforming use of such building or premises shall no longer be permitted unless a variance therefor shall have been granted by the Board of Appeals, as hereinafter provided .... 5. Column A-180 of the Bulk and Parking Schedule, and Article III, Section lO0-30(B)[1], permits a two-family dwelling by special exception, subject to site plan approval by the Planning Board, and a minimum lot area of 160,000 sq. ft., minimum lot width of 270 feet, and minimum lot depth of 250 feet. 6. It is the opinion of this board that since evidence has not been submitted proving the legality of the subject premises as a "two-family dwelling use" in existence since the enactment of zoning, that this board is without authority to grant the variance applied for. Accordingly, absent such proof, the subject variance must be denied. On motion by Mr. Grigonis, seconded by Messrs. Douglass and Doyen, it was RESOLVED, that the relief requested in the Matter of the Variance Application of STAMATIOS AND ELENI RAPANAKIS under Appeal No. 3405, BE AND HEREBY IS DENIED. Vote of the Board: Ayes: Messrs. Goehringer, Douglass, Grigonis, and Doyen. (Member Sawicki was absent.) This resolution was duly adopted. lk . GERARD P. GOEHRINGEB, CHAIRMAN February 4, 1986
