TYPE OF APPEAL Appeal is made herewith for (please check appropriate box) ( ~ A VARIANCE to the Zoning Ordinance or Zoning Map ( ) A VARIANCE due to lock of access (State of New York Town Law Chap. 62 Cons. Laws Art. ]6 Sec. 280A Subsection 3 () 4. PREVIOUS APPEAL A previous appeal (Fdi;s~ (has not) been made with respect to this decision of the Building Inspector or with respect to this property. Such ~ppeol was ( ) request for a special permit ( ) request for o variance and was mode in Appeal No ................................. Dated ...................................................................... REASON FOR APPEAL ( ) A Variance to Section 280A Subsection 3 (,~) A Variance to the Zoning Ordinance ( ) is requested for the reason that:construction of the project 75' from the tidal marsh bounding the site to the west, as required by 100-119.2, would destroy a ~ature oak. ~ mmm (~ontinue on other side) REASON FOR APPEAL Continum:l i. STRICT APPLICATION OF THE ORDINANCE would produce practical difficulties or unneces- sary HARDSHIP becau~ the cutting down of this tree would be inconsistent with the guidelines of the Fisher's Island Development Corporation for construction of new homes within the bounds of the Park as it would adversely affect the views from and character of the property of Ms. van de Schulenburg, immediately adjacent to the north-east. THe Hardship created is ~NIQUE and is not shored by all prope~ies alike in the immediate vic!nity of this property and in this use district because ~h~ tidal marsh characteristic of the shore of West Harbor forms two boundries of the property, both the north and the West. The full 75' setback required by the Southold Code will be maintained to the north (the principal exposure), while the setback from the marsh to the west would be reduced to 55'. 3 The Variance would observe the spirit of the Ordinance and WOULD NOT CHANGE THE CHARACTER OF THE DISTRICT because the lot is overgrown with a dense ~nderstory beneath mature trees. It is intended that the existing character of the site be maintained, with the large specimen trees remaining undisturbed and the understory thinned only as required to provide passage for the drive, in furtherance of the goal of preserving the park atmosphere of Fisher's Island.
