FINDINGS, DELIBERATIONS AND DETERMINATION
REGULAR MEETING OF FEBRUARY 26, 1998
Appl. No. 4531 - DUANE PASCALE PARCEL 1000-87-3-8
STREET & LOCALITY: 3520 ~linnehaha Boulevard, Southold
DATE OF PUBLIC HEARINGS: January 15 and 22, 1998
FINDINGS OF FACT
PROPERTY FACTS/DESCRIPTION:
This property is located in an R-40 Low-Density Residential Zone
District, being situate on a substandard parcel of land coniaining 11,053
sq. ft. of total lot area confirmed by survey dated September 4, 1997,
prepared by John T. Metzger, Surveyor. The survey shows frontage
along Minnehaha Boulevard of 100 feet, frontage along Owaissa Avenue of
100.04 feet, and frontage along Corey Creek of 119.53 feet. The
premises is improved with a single-family dwelling (built about 1965)
with garage addition (built in 1988) and two accessory buildings. The
existing setbacks of the dwe]ling are presently shown at 28 ft. minimum
from Corey Creek (bulkho. ad), and at 8.1 feet from the southerly front
property line along Owaissa Avenue. The total lot coverage of existing
buildings is confirmed by applicant as follows:
House (ground floor area)
Garage
Accessory Building ("boathouse")
Detached Shed
Total Existing
1725 sq. ft.
384 sq. ft.
137 sq. ft.
125 sq. ft.
2369 sq. ft.
BASIS OF APPEAL: Four Building Inspector Actions of Disapproval
noted below:
a) dated November 10, 1997 which reads as follows:
"...the proposed deck addition of approximately 1000 sq. ft.
will exceed the allowable lot coverage of 2210 sq. ft. The existing
dwelling covers 2369 sq. ft. already exceeding the allowable
coverage by approx. 160 sq. ft. Note: ZBA Appl. #3784 11/16/88.
Therefore the total square footage would exceed the allowable
covering in an R40 Zone by approximately 1160 sq. ft. pursuant to
Article IliA 100-30A.3...";
b) dated November 17, 1997 which reads as follows:
Page ~ of 4 - February 26, 1998
Appl. No. 4532 - Duane Pascale
Property ID: 1000-87-3-8
"... 1. The proposed deck addition will encroach on the allowable
75' setback requirement to a bulkhead adjacent to tidal water
bodies, pursuant to Article XXIII, 100-239.4B, 2. the proposed
deck addition encroaches on the allowable front yard setback of a
non-conforming lot of under 20,000 sq. ft. in an R40 Zone.
The location of the encroachment is on the south side of the parcel
on Owaissa Avenue pursuant to Article XXIV, Section 100-244B..
c) dated December 15, 1997, which reads as follows, and noted by
the Building Inspector as a revision to (a) above as follows:
"...exceed the allowable coverage in an R40 Zone by approximately
206 sq. ft .... This disapproval is based on the most recent
survey dated September 4th (sic), 1997 .... " Note: disapproval was
corrected to show survey was dated December 4, 1997;
d) dated January 5, 1998 which roads as follows, and noted by the
Building Inspector as revised:
"... the proposed deck addition will exceed the allowable lot
coverage of 2401 sq. ft. The existing dwelling covers 2369 sq.
ft. The proposed deck addition is 1000 sq. ft. Therefore, the
total square footage would exceed the allowable coverage in an R40
Zone by approximately 968 sq. ft. pursuant to Article IIIA, Section
100-30A.3. Note: This disapproval is based on the most recent
survey with a revised date of December 4, 1997 .... "
AREA VARIANCE RELIEF REQUESTED BY APPLICANT: To construct
new deck addition at the roar of dwelling. Relief sought was offered by
applicant as follows:
a) ORIGINAL RELIEF SOUGHT: 1000 sq. ft. deck with a total lot
coverage of 3,279 sf after allowing for removal of the "boathouse,"
and a minimum setback from the bulkhead of nine feet;
b) SECOND PLAN/RELIEF SOUGHT: total lot coverage of 2948 sq.
ft. with removal the "boathouse" structure; and proposed setback
from the bulkhead shown at a minimum of 17'2" at its closest point;
c) THIRD ALTERNATIVE PLAN SOUGHT BY APPLICANT: total lot
coverage of 2904 sq. ft. and proposed setback to the bulkhead at a
minimum of 17'2" feet and 17 feet from the south/east corner of the
proposed deck to the current southerly property line (along
Owalssa Avenue).
REASONS FOR BOARD ACTION~ DESCRIBED BELOW:
(1) The granting of the area variance as originally applied for will
produce an undesirable change in character of neighborhood or a
detriment to nearby properties because, relative to the neighborhood,
the lot coverage of 29.7% would be excessively large and the setbacks
from bulkhead and Owalssa Avenue would be excessively small.
Page '~ of 4 - February 26, 1998
Appl. No. 4532 - Duane Pascale
Property ID: 1000-87-3-8
(2) The area variance, as applied for, is substantial.
(3) Because the benefit of an outdoor deck sought by the applicant
cannot be achieved by some method, feasible for applicant to pursue,
other than an area variance, due to the size of the property, the
present construction, and today's code requirements, the Board has
considered alternatives to the relief originally sought, including the
alternatives presented by the applicant. The Board has determined to
deny the relief originally sought by the applicant and grant alternative
relief (noted below).
(4) The Board finds this action is the minimum necessary and adequate
and at the same time preserves and protects the character of the
neighborhood, and the health, safety, welfare of the community.
(5) The variance will not have an adverse effect or impact on the
physical or environmental conditions in the neighborhood or district.
RESOLUTION/ACTION: On motion by Member Dinizio, seconded by
Chairman Goehringer, it was
RESOLVED, to DENY the application as applied for, and to GRANT
ALTERNATIVE RELIEF FOR A DECK, OPEN TO THE SKY, TO BE
DESIGNED BY THE APPLICANT, AND SUBJECT TO THE FOLLOWING
CONDITIONS:
1. LOT COVERAGE: The total lot coverage, inciuding principal
building (house) plus proposed deck addition, and accessory buildings,
shall not exceed 24 percent of the total lot area of 11,053 sq. ft. which
is 2653 square feet. (This is based on the total lot area which
excludes the land claimed by the applicant on the right-of-way known as
Owaissa Avenue. ) This 24% lot coverage limitation would allow options to
be decided by the application with respect to design provided it meets
the foliowlng additional conditions.
2. FRONT YARD: The southeasterly corner of the new deck
construction shah be no closer than 17'2" to the southeasterly (front)
property line (excluding the right-of-way area on Owaissa Avenue).
3. REAR YARD: The rear yard setbacks:
a) at the north/east corner of the deck addition shah be
no closer than 28 feet to the inside of the bulkhead at its closest
point; and
b) at the center portion of the deck shall be no closer
than 20 feet to the inside of the bulkhead at its closest point; and
c) at the south/east corner of the deck shall be no closer

Appl. No. 4532 - Duane Pascale
Property ID: 1000-87-3-8
than 21'3" to the inside of the bulkhead at its closest point.
4. DECK CONSTRUCTION: The deck shall remain open to the sky.
VOTE OF THE BOARD: AYES: MEMBERS GOEHRINGER, DINIZIO,
COLLINS, and HORNING. NAY: MEMBER TORTO]~-~-,~4rhis Resolution
was duly adopted (4-1).

Dear Mr~P sa~eale:
Please find enclosed a copy of the Beard's determination with alternative

We have furnished the Building Inspector's Office with a copy of the
enclosed ZBA decision as an update to the December 15, 1997 Notice of
Disapproval. It is our understanding that you will need to submit a plan with
the Building Department which will meet the alternative relief conditions as
the next step in the building-permit review process.
As you know, no construction activities are permitted until a building
permit (and other required approvals) have been issued.
Very truly yours,
Beard Secretary

RE: Duane Pascale Date of Birth: 4/16/53

Southold, NY

Dear Sirs:
The above captioned patient has been under my care for many years.
He suffers from post-traumatic osteoarthritis of both ankles and
chronic tendonitis of both arms. He has required periods of
casting immobilization, physiotherapy, anti-inflammatory
medications, and limitations of his lifestyle, such as no running
and no walking on uneven surfaces.
Becaus~ of his ankle condition, he has been required to use a
cane in the past. However, because of arm tendonitis, he cannot
use a cane. He has much difficulty walking on uneven surfaces,
including up and down inclines.
His daily routine included a stretching program for his very stiff
and painful ankles.
The patient has informed me that he has recently purchased a home
in your town and would like to enjoy his back yard. However,
because of the incline, he cannot walk on this sloped surface
and he would like to construct a flat wood deck. I think this
is medically indicated. Please extend to this patient any
allowance referable to this chronic condition.
Very truly yours,

The following is a response to each of the "area variance standards":
MAIN FACTORS
1) The benefit to the applicant if the variance is granted
Due to a medical condition my mobility is extremely limited outside the home. The
variance would allow me to fi:eely move about the yard, while a hard flat sttrface
substantially reduces fiuther risk of injury to my ankles. Please see medical doctor's
letter enclosed.
2) The detriment to the health, safety and general welfare of the neighborhood or
community that wouM occur if the variance were to be granted.
None.
ADDITIONAL FACTORS
1) Whether an undesirable change will be produced in the character of the neighborhood
or a detriment to nearby properties if granted.
On the contrapy, it would enhance the beauty and value of the neighborhood as agreed
to by the Town of Southold Trustees approval.
2) Whether the benefit sought by the applicant cart be achieved by some method, feasible
for the applicant to persue, other than an area variance.
Perhaps a poured concrete patio, but that would involve changing the gradation of the
land to make it level and would cause a water nmoffproblem due to lack of drainage.
3) Whether the area variance is substantial.
That is the board's determination, but I would like to state that even though the deck
would exceed the allowable lot coverage please consider that it is not additional
enclosed living space, but a wood deck. Over 80% of the deck is only 18" in height.
4) Whether the variance will have and adverse effect or impact on the physical or
environmental conditions in the neighborhood or district.
Drainage would be a concern especially flit were an enclosed living space with a root~
gutters and leaders creating concentrated runoff A wood deck would have spacing of
the floor boards which would help drainage. In addition, we are asking to remove a
boat shed (approx 90fi) and concrete walks and a patio (approx 390R) which would
account for a total of approximately 480 square feet of soil to be returned to the yard.
5) Whether the alleged difficulty was self created, which consideration shall be relevant
to the ZBA 's decision but shall not preclude the granting.
No.
6) The ZBA will grant the minimum variance that it shall deem necessary and adequate,
and at the same time preserve and protect the character of the neighborhood and the
health, safety and welfare of the community. ~.. ~

Pa~e 2 - Appl. No. 3784
Matter Of JAMES YOUNG
Decision Rendered November 16, 1988
3. Article III, Section 100-31, Bulk Schedule, Column "A"
of the Zoning Code requires a minimum frontyard setback at 35
feet for a principal dwelling structure.
4. The relief requested by this application is
specifically a variance from the required 35 feet to 27+- feet
for the construction of a 16-ft. by 24 ft. addition at the
southerly end of the dwelling structure.
5. The dwelling as exists is shown to be set back 33 feet
from the westerly front property line along Minnehaha Boulevard
and 18-1/2 feet from the front southerly property line (along
Owaissa Avenue, a paper street), at its closest points.
6. It is noted that the lot in question is nonconforming
as to lot area, width and lot depth, limiting the permitted
building area.
7. In considering this application, the Board also finds
and determines:
(a) the relief requested is not substantial in
relation to the established nonconforming frontyard setback from
the southerly property line;
(b) the relief if granted as requested will not alter
the essential character of the neighborhood;
(c) the difficulties are uniquely related to the
property and are not personal in nature;
(d) the variance will not in turn be adverse to the
safety, health, welfare, comfort, convenience or order of the
town, or be adverse to neighboring properties;
(e) in view of all of the above factors, the
interests of justice will be served by granting the relief, as
requested and conditionally noted below.
Accordingly, on motion by Mr. Dinizio, seconded by
Mr. Goehringer, it was
RESOLVED, to GRANT the relief requested under Appeal No.
3784in the Matter of JAMES YOUNG for a 16 ft. x 24 ft. proposed
addition with an insufficient frontyard setback from the
westerly property line at 27+- feet and from the southerly
property line at 8+- feet feet, as shown on the sketched survey

Thomas, 91 Avenue C, Port Washington, New York, for a variance
in accordance with the Zoning ordinance, Article III, Section 100-32

east to west end of dwelling. Location of property: north side of
Minnehaha Boulevard, Southold, New York, bounded on the north by Corey
Creek; east by Bugdin; south by Minnehaha Boulevard; west by Haggert.
The Chairman opened the hearing by reading the application for a
variance, legal notice of hearing, affidavits attesting to its publi-
cation in the official newspapers, and disapproval from the Building
Inspector. The Chairman also read statement from the Town Clerk that
notification by certified mail had been made to: Joseph Bugdin and
Henry Haggerty. Fee paid $15.00.
THE CHAIRMAN: The applicants originally proposed to place the
addition on the. easterly end of their house and now wish to change it
to the westerly end. ! guess it is the same addition.
Is there anyone present who wishes to speak for this application?
F~kROLD THOMAS: I think the thing that brought this about was that
the first appeal was made in kind of a hurried situation. It just seem
more logical at this point to do it ~%is way. The dwelling sets crooke
on the lot. This would take advantage of that and the addition would
present itself better to the neighborhood on this side of the house. It
would look more cramped on the other side of the house. But as far as
our use is concerned, it is basically the same. However, it was change
from the beginning in that we have put a small room to the rear of this

After inspection and investigation the Board finds that the
applicant requests permission to change a previously approved addition
from the east to the west end of dwelling, and that this will not
change the character of the neighboring district.
The Board finds that the public convenience and welfare and
justice will be served and the legally established or permitted use
of neighborhood property and adjoining use districts will not be
permanently or substantially injured and the spirit of the Ordinance
will be observed.
On motion of Mr. Gillispie, seconded by Mr. Bergen, it was
RESOLVED that Harold and Virginia Thomas, 91 Avenue C, Port
Washington, New York, be GRANTED permission to change a previously
approved addition from the east to the west end of the dwelling.

HAROLD THOMAS: Yes, sir.
THE CHAIRM_AN: Would you tell us what the problem is here?
HAROLD THOMAS: We're trying to get an attached garage to the
house. The existing house is sitting askew on the property in order
Southold To~n Board of Appeals -12- February 2, 1978
that it face the road on a bend. No matter where you put that
house it is going to point either front or to the rear to a side
yard. It would almost be impossible to line up the garage with
a side yard so that there would be equal distance, whereas the
sketch shows only 3' in the front, it is considerably more than
that as you go back along the property.
THE CHAIRMAN: If the garage were moved further back
CHARLES ~RIGONIS: It drops off in the back°
THE CHAIRMAN: Say the back of the garage lined up with the
back of the house instead of this jug here which Ls about, I don't
.know how many feet, I can't read it. Looks tJ.ke several feet.
The further back you go, the further away from the side yard you
get and that's the question I'm asking, whethcr you can. go back
any further.
HAROLD THOMAS: ~;o thoughts come into mind, Mr. Chairman.
One is that it would obstruct our view of the creek area, which
is a beautiful area, and $2, it would tend to interfer with the
views of the neighbors. We had talked to one of the neighbors,
not the one in question on that side, but the other one and that
seemed to be the concern of the area, that we do not obstruct
views of Corey Creek. The further back we took this would obstruct
these views.
THE CHAIRMAN: The land falls off there, I believe, too.
A~yone else wish to speak for this application? Anyone wish to
speak against this application?
(There was no response.)
After investigation and inspection, the Board finds that the
applicant requests permission to construct addition with insuffi-
cient front and side yard setbacks, north side Minnehaha Boulevard,
Southold, New York. The findings of the Board are that the Board
is in agreement with the reasoning of the applicant.
The Board finds that strict application o~ the ordinance
would produce practical difficulties or unnecessary hardship;
the hardship created is unique and would not be shared by all
properties alike in the immediate Vicinity of this property and
in the same use district; and the variance will not change the
character of the neighborhood, and will obse-~-e the spirit of
the Ordinance.

Upon application of Lucy E. Michaels, 3570 Minnehaha Boulevard,
Southold, NY for a Variance to the Zoning Ordinance, Article III,
Section 100-32 for permission to construct accessory storage building
in the sideyard area at 3570 Minnehaha Boulevard, Southold, NY;
bounded north by Laughing Waters; west by Tschiember; south by Minne-
haha Boulevard; east by Young; County Tax Map No. 1000-87-3-7.
The public hearing concerning this matter was held earlier
this evening, at which time the hearing was closed pending delibera-
tions.
The board made the following findings and determination:
By this appeal, applicants seek permission to construct an
8' by 10' accessory buildinq in the sideyard area for purposes of
storage. The premises in question has approximately 60' road
frontage and an average depth of approximately 134 feet. Existing
on the premises is private one-family dwelling. The entire length
cf the water-lying edge of this property is a functional bulkhead
in very good condition. Upon inspection of the adjoining properties,
~he board finds that theproperty directly to the east has con-
structed thereon a similar type of structure opposite the requested
location. The board agrees with the reasoning of applicants.
In considering this appeal, the board dete_~mines that the
variance request is not substantial in relation to the code require-
men~s; that the circumstances herein are unique; that by allowing
the variance no substantial detriment to adjoining properties would
be created; that the difficulty cannot be obviated by a method,
feasible to appellant(s), other than a variance; that no adverse
effects will be produced on available governmental facilities of
any increased population; that the relief requested will be in har-
mony with and promote the general purposes of zoning; and that the
interests of justice will be served by allowing the variance as
applied for and as specified below.
On motion by Mr. Grigonis, seconded by Mr. Douglass, it was
RESOLVED, that the application of Lucy E. Michaels for per-
mission to construct accessory storaqe building in the side yard
area as applied for in Appeal No. 2974 be and hereby IS GP~NTED,

PUBLIC HEARING: Appeal No. 2208 - 7:55 P.M. (E.S.T.)
upon application of George Ahlers, Builder, Inc. a/c Richard
and Delores Prieto, 40-32 196th Street, Flushing, New York
for a variance in accordance with the Zoning Ordinance, Article
III, Section 100-30 and Bu~< Schedule for permission to construct
addition with insufficient setback. Location of property:
Minnehaha Boulevard and Opechee Avenue, Southold, New York,
bounded on the north by Opechee _~venue; east by Corey Creek;
south by D. Prieto; west by M~innehaha Boulevard.
The Chairman opened the hearing by reading the application
for a variance, legal notice of hearing, affidavits attesting
to its publication in the official newspapers, and notice to
the applicant. The Chairman also read statement from the Town
Southold Town Board of Appeals -5- November 4, 1976
Clerk that notification by certified mail had been made to:
Jean M. Lohn. Fee paid - $15.00.
THE CHAIRMAN: The tax map indicates that the applicant's
property is a corner lot on Minnehaha Boulevard and what would
be an extension of 0pechee Avenue to Corey Creek which is un-
improved. It appears that the applicant now mows the grass on
the vacant, unimproved right-of-way which is owned by the Town.
GEORGE A~LERS: There seems to be some question_as to who
owns it, whether it's the Town or the Property Owners' Association,
no one really seems to know. The Town Board said, well, Miss
Cowan who lives on the corner there, said the only time they want
to recognize the Town~'s rights there is when they want the branches
cleaned up. So, there does seem to be some doubt as to who owns
it.
THE CF~kIR/~2%N: How wide is the right-of-way? It looks
like it's about 30'.
GEORGE AHLERS: I would guess it must be about that.
THE CHAIRMAN: When we were down there, it didn't look
as though you would aotually have to go down to 7' on the
corner.
GEORGE A~LERS: I was goinq by the survey, and they're
pretty close to the lot line as it is right now. They're back
about 11' or 12' and an addition of 5' on there would reduce
it down to about 7'.
THE CHAIRMAN: It doesn't look like it would be that much,
but it depends on the width of this right-of-way. You can't tell
where the property line is.
ROBERT BERGEN: No one se~ms to know what it is. Howard
Terry said 25'.

THE CHAi~A/~: The applicant has the double difficulty of
a small lot and two f~ont yards. Whether it's a private righ~-
of-way or not, it's still a front yard.
.~nyone else wish to speak for this application?
(There was no response.)
Southold Town Board of Appeals -6- November 4, 1976
Does anyone wish to speak against this application?
(There was no response.)
The only thing I wondered about here, this is not against
'it, I'm just asking for information. The lot adjoining this is
also owned by Dolores Prieto. Does she own this one too?
GEORGE AHLERS: I think that the lot that the house is on
is jointly owned by husband and wife and the adjacent lot is
owned solely by the wife.
After investigation and inspection the Board finds that
the applicant requests permission to construct addition with
insufficient setback, Minnehaha Boulevard and Opechee Avenue,
Southold, New York. The findings of the Board are that the
applicant has a two-fold difficulty: a small lot and two
front yards by reason of the adjoining right-of-way.
The Board finds that strict application of the Ordinance
would produce practical difficulties or unnecessary hardship;
the hardship created is unique and would not be shared by all
properties alike in the immediate vicinity of this property and
in the same use district; and the variance will not change the
character of the neighborhood, and will observe the spirit of
the Ordinance.
On motion by 5~. Grigonis, seconded by Mr. ~ulse, it was
RESOLVED, Richard and Dolores Prieto, 40-32 196th Street,
Flushing, New York be GRANTED permission to construct addition
with insufficient set~ack, Minnehaha Boulevard and Opechee Ave-

upon application of Jean Lohn and B. Loretta Yom Lehn, Minnehaha.
Boulevard, Southold, New York for a variance in accordance with
the Zoning Ordinance, Article III, Section 100-30 and 100-32 for
permission to construct accessory building on property line.
Location of property: East side Minnehaha Boulevard, Southold,
New York, bounded on the north by Prieto; east by Corey Creek;
south by Vanderbeck; west by Minnehaha Boulevard.
The Chairman opened the hearing by reading the application

also read statement from the Town Clerk that notification by

Fee paid - $15.00.
THE CHAIRMAN: Is there anyone present who wishes to speak
for this application?
JEAN LOHN: Mr. Yom Lehn is here, he's going to speak for
both of us.
HARVEy VOM LEHN: I represent Mrs. Lohn and my wife, Mrs.
Vom Lehn, we're adjoining property owners of waterfront property
in Laughing Waters. Storage area is very critical. We'd like
to eliminate the 3' setback and put the storage buildings back
to back. We'd screen it with light foliage and make it as in-
conspicuous as possible. So far there are no objections, the
two owners are acceptable, naturally.
THE CHAIRMAN: As I understand it, this joint storage shed
would be on a line and would be no closer to Minnehaha Boulevard
than a line extended from the Vom Lehn house.
HARVEY VOM LEHN: No, it's back about ... the Vom Lehn house
is 36' from Minnehaha and this would be back about 42'
THE CHAIRMAN: The Yom Lehn house is not parallel to Minnehaha
and that's the reason that your building would be further back.
That's where you want them, at 42', right?

HARVEy VOM LEHN: No, they'll be separated.
THE CHAIRMAN: You're going to have two separate buildings
without a common wall, is that correct? Back to back?
HARVEy VOM LEHN: That's correct.
THE CHAIRMAN:' We thought you were going to have a common wall.
HARVEy VOM LEHN: No, two separate buildings with a fence
in between.
THE CHAIRMAN: They'll be lean-to type, right?
HARVEY VOM LEHN: Yes.
THE CHAIRMAN: It would be better to have something on the
ridge than have the water go down in between and rot the walls.
There'll be no way to paint them or anything else. So you'll have
a common ridge, that'll be the only common part of the building,
you'll have to have a ridge that goes over it. I would think so
anyway, otherwise they won't last very long.
HARVEY VOM LEHN: Bob Hyatt suggested back to back with a
fence in between with space to paint, 6".
THE CHAIRMAN: 6"? You'd need a mop. I don't know if this
is any of our business. According to Town counsel this is unusual
but there should be no objection on our part from the legal stand-
point. We never had one like it. Are these going to be made out
of lumber?
HARVEy YOM LEHN: No, Sears Roebuck aluminum, nothing better.
THE CHAIRMAN: Anyone wish to speak against this application?
(There was no response.)
After investigation and inspection, the Board finds that the
applicants request permission to construct accessory building on
property line, east side Minnehaha Boulevard, Southold, New York.
The findings of the Board are that the Board is in agreement with
the reasoning of the applicant.
The Board finds that strict application of the Ordinance

Application of MR. AND MRS. CHARLES BURST
Decision Rendered February 23, 1993
BOARD FINDINGS AND DETERMINATION
Appeal No. 4153:
Application of Mit. AND MRS. CHARLES A. BURST for a Variance
to the Zoning Ordinance, Article III, Section 100-33 (as amended
December 1992) for permission to locate an accessory garage
building in the front yard area with a reduced side yard
setback. Location of Property: 705 Windy Point Road (private
road ~12), Southold, NY; County Tax Map Parcel ID
~1000-87-4-6. This parcel is preexisting with nonconformities
as to total, lot area, lot Width and principal setbacks in this
R-40 Zone District.
WHEREAS, a public hearing was held on February 23, 1993, at
which time all those who desired to be heard were heard and all
statements were made a part of the written record; and
WHEREAS, the Board has carefully considered all testimony
and documentation submitted concerning this application; and
WHEREAS, Board Members have personally viewed and are
familiar with the premises in question, its present zoning, and
the surrounding areas; and
WHEP~EAS, the Board made the following findings of fact:
1. This is an appeal of the February 5, 1993 Notice of
Disapproval by the Building Inspector for a variance to build a
detached garage in an area other than the required rear yard.
2. The premises in question is situated at the end of
Windy Point Road (a private road), which extends southerly from
Balrview Road, Southold. The property is zoned R-40 Low-Density
Residential Zone District and contains a total area of
approximately 10,000 sq. ft.
3. A map has been submitted with this application showing
an one-stol-t, single-family dwelling structure set back 107+-
~et from the northerly (front) property line and approximately
30 feet from the rear (southerly) property line along Corey
Creek. -

Application of MR. AND MRS. CHA/{LES BU~T
Decision Rendered February 23-, 1993
4. Article IIi, Section 100-33, as amended December 22,
1992 by Local Law No. 33-1992, provides at subsection C:
· ..C. In the case of a waterfront parcel, accessory
buildings and structures may be located in the
front yard, provided such buildings and
structures meet the front-yard setback requirements as
set forth by this code...
5. The front yard setback provisions for this
nonconforming parcel in an R-40 Zone District requires a m/nimtuu
of 10 feet. In this appeal, the applicant requests a variance
to place this proposed free-standing accessory garage building
in the front yard at a distance 35 feet from the front property
line along Sound View Avenue and at four feet from the westerly
property line~
6. Some of the reasons for requesting are: (1) the
property is very narrow extending at a width of 35. feet in the
front yard along the right-of-way; (2) to locate the accessory
building with a setback at 10 feet or more would create limited
access to the dwelling and would reduce the amount of usuable
yard area.
7. It is the opinion of the Board Members that the general
area, with a setback at five feet (instead of the requested four
feet) is better, under the circumstances, and agree with the
reasoning of the application that there is no other area which
is less offensive.
8. Also in considering this application, the majority of
the Board finds: (a) that the relief requested is substantial
in relation to the new requirements, being a setback reduction
from 10 feet to 5 feet; (b) that the reasons fuurnished by
appellant are sufficient to warrant a grant of the variance
requested; (c) there are no other alternative locations which
would be more feasible for appellant to pursue, under the
circumstances; (d) the location requested is not out'of
character of the ir~ediate area and will not create an adverse
effect or impact on the physical or environmental conditions in
this district; (e) the difficulty was not self-created.
Accordingly, on motion by Member Wilton, seconded by
Me~0er Dinizio, it was
RESOLVED, that the relief requested to reduce the setback
of a proposed 16 ft. wid= x 24 ft. deep accesso~? garage in the
front yard area from 10 feet to 4 feet, BE AND HF~IN IS DE~IF2D,
and BE IT FURTS~.R

of 15 feet and 20 feet, total sideyards at not less than 35
feet.
4. Article XXIII, Section 100-239.4B requires a setback of
not less than 75 feet from the bulkhead along Corey Creek.
5. The relief sought by this application are variances for
approval of:
(a) reduction of the westerly side yard for the
proposed cantiliver (over-hang) of two feet;
(b) proposed open deck constr~ction and
reconstruction (including a new second story) to be set back
23+- feet from the bulkhead at its closest point;
(c) total side yards at 13.7 feet (without over-hang)
and at 9.5 feet with cantilevered over-hang.

Southold Town Board of Appeals -5 - December 13, 1990 Special
Meeting
(Appl. No. 3985 - LINDVEIT decision, continued:)
7. In considering this application, the Board also finds
and determines: (a) the relief as granted will not in turn
increase the dwelling unit density, since the parcel has been
since prior to 1964 and presently is improved with a dwelling;
(b) the evidence submitted and practical difficulties claimed
are sufficient to warrant a grant of this variance; (¢) there
will be no substantial change in the character of the immediate
neighborhood or detriment to adjoining properties; (d) the
difficulties cannot be obviated by some method feasible to the
appellant to pursue, other than a variance; (e) the
difficulties are due to the uniqueness of the land and are not
personal to the property owners; (f) that in view of the
manner in which the difficulties arose, and in con- sidering all
the above factors, the interests of justice will be served by
granting the variance, as conditionally noted below.
Accordingly, on motion by Mr. Grigonis, seconded by
Mr. Goehringer, it was
RESOLVED, to GRANT the relief as requested (and noted in
paragraph ~5, supra), in the Matter of the Application of
HERBERT AND CATheRINE LINDVEIT under Appl. No. 3985, SUBJECT TO
T~E FOLLOWING CONDITIONS:
1. That the deck construction proposed at the easterly
side be not closer than eight (8') feet to the property line
(may be clipped to conform with the 8 ft. setback);
2. That the deck remain open and not fully enclosed;
3. That the setbacks be not closer than 4.5 at the
westerly side and not closer than 8.0 feet at the easterly side
(with the exception of the two-foot over-hangs), as applied
(more particularly shown on the September 18, 1990 survey
prepared by Peconic Surveyors, P.C.}.
Vote of the Board: Ayes: Messrs. Goehringer, Grigonis,
Doyen and Dinizio, consisting of all four members at this time.
This resolution was duly adopted.

THE CHAIRMAN: Is there anyone present who wishes to
speak against this application?
(There was no response.)
After investigation and inspection the Board finds that
applicant requests permission to construct accessory building
in front yard area on property located on the south side of
Bay View Road, Southold. The findings of the Board are that
this is a reasonable request because of the risk of flooding
of the rear yard. The Board agrees with the reasoning of the
applicant and compliments the applicant on his eloquent
presentation of the problems concerning people who own
property on the water.
The Board finds that strict application of the Ordinance
would produce practical difficulties or unnecessary hardship;
the hardship created is unique and would not be shared by all
properties alike in the immediate vicinity of this property
and in the same use district; and the variance will not
change the character of the neighborhood, and will observe
the spirit of the Ordinance.
On motion by Mr. Grigonis, seconded by Mr. Hulse, it was
RESOLVED, Herbert and Catherine Lindtveit, 634 Adams
Place, West Hempstead, New York be GRANTED permission to
construct accessory building in front yard area of property
located on the south side of Bay View Road, Southold, New
York, as applied for. The accessory building to be located
on the property as indicated on applicant's sketch (in file).
