~harles ~Eemappeared in correction with his development on
0ak~awn Awe. Southold. He has agreed to enlarge all his lots to
conform to mt~tmum of 100 x 125,however,he wanted the board's reaction
to sale of two lots 90 x ~00 which are so situated that the-_width
cannot be enlarged without unnecessary h~rdship. The board agreed
unofficially to regard the sale of these lots favorably,~articularly
since:he has agreed to enlarge all other lots where.possible,
Ralph Glover:appeared in cobh'action with lot 200 x 451/465...
irregular shape on~h there~is now a house 172' from fron~ line on
easterly hal£...le6a-~t-e~ Kenr~'s Road,Southold.. Mr Glover wondered
what board' s reaction would be to division into 8 slightly undersize
lots. and erection on: each of a ~-11 con,age for rent(~oot~age would
be larger than 550 sq ft)..Board suggested he:might look into the
possibility of a Tourist.Camp at the rear of the property,and division
of the remaining area into fully sized lota~ ~ubdivision of. land should
be taken up with Planning Board.
~ & Mrs ~ieglerappeared in connection with property they own on
~ay Ave,East Marion.. This property was discussed in May 2nd meeting,.
PI~:. in~efinite~: want approval of 50 Foot lots for cottages larger
than tourist camp minimum(550 sq ft)~or they may want to build some
duplexes. Ware advised that subdivision of land is matter for Planning
Board.. Oonstruction of duplexes in a residential zone w~uld require~
change of zone,a matter for Town Board.
~rs Anderson,owner of a 50~ lot with residence in Mill Oolo~y,
near Sothold Town Beach,has opportunity to purchase adjoining lot of
150' width,.O~ner will not sell a less~ width. Question propounded
by Mr R ~Terry ~r~what would be board's attitude in case of this kind
where two or more lots are me=ged in e~nt owner wishes to sell a 1OO
fo~ lot from the new~ acquisition of 150~.-Noard reacte~ favorably~
since owner's original lot would be widened by 50' and thereby improved..
In general the board seemed to feel that merging of lots did not
imply the original lot held in single and separate: ownership before
enactment of the ordinance had to be increased to lOCk,or that the
lot to be increased from 50 to 80 should in any way b~ penalized in
future transactions~ somewhat similar case was discuseed,~he~e both
the lot with the house and the adjoining lot on a corner now vacant
are undersized but both lots were in separate ownership before the
enactment of the ordinance. Gould the owner of the house on the inside
lot purchase the adjoining empty lot and obtain a permit to build on'
a 65' lot..Board reacted favorably.
There was some discussion with reference to issuance of building
permits on 20~ lots,as well as question of building permits~ to extensions
of non-conforming usese. Minutes of the April 25th Meeting were read and
approved.Meeting adjourned 11~50 P.M.
