FINDINGS, DELIBERATIONS AND DETERMINATION
SPECIAL MEETING OF MAY 5, 1999
Appl. No. 4675 - ANTHONY HUGHES and SUSAN HULME
STREET & LOCALITY: 1330 Salt Marsh Lane, Peconic 1000 -68 -3 -
DATE OF PUBLIC HEARING: April 22, 1999
FINDINGS OF FACT
Southold Town Hall
53095 Main Road
P.O. Box 1179
Southold, New York 11971
ZBA Fax (516) 765-9064
Telephone (516) 765-1809
PROPERTY FACTS/DESCRIPTION: The subject property fronts along the Long Island Sound and consists of
a total lot area of 25,232+- sq. ft. and lot width (frontage) of 85 feet along Salt Marsh Lane, a private right-
of-way. Existing at the site is a one-story frame dwelling with screened porch and accessory wood shed in
the front yard area. The parcel is divided near its center point with the Coastal Erosion Hazard Line, where
the dwelling structure presently exists. The dwelling side yards are shown to be 7.6 feet on the west side
and 12+- feet on the east side, for a combined total of 19.6+- feet. Also located on the property are steps
leading to the bottom of the bluff, and in the southerly front yard area a 8.2'x 10.2' accessory wood shed.
BASIS OF APPLICATION: Building Inspector Notice of Disapproval dated January 21, 1999 citing Article
XXIV, Section 100-244B for the reason that the permit for "relocation of an existing single family dwelling" is
disapproved because the required side yard for lots with 0.58 acre would be 15' minimum with a total
combined side yard of 35 ft.
AREA VARIANCE RELIEF REQUESTED: Applicants request a variance which will allow relocating the existing
single-family dwelling landward of its present location, approximately 20 feet south of the Coastal Erosion
Hazard Line, while maintaining the same nonconforming side yards 7.6+- feet westerly side setback and 12
feet easterly side setback. The dwelling will also be located further south of the top of the bluff line than
currently exists.
OTHER:
The Suffolk County Health Department has issued a permit with respect to a new sanitary system as noted
under H.S. No. R10-98-142 dated January 20, 1999.
REASONS FOR BOARD ACTION: After consideration of the entire record, testimony at the public hearing and
other evidence, the Board finds the following facts to be true and relevant:
1. Grant of the area variance will not produce an undesirable change in character of
neighborhood or a detriment to nearby properties because relocating the dwelling will aid
in preventing damage to the bluff and adjacent bluff -facing properties.
2. The benefit sought by the applicant cannot be achieved by some method, feasible for
applicant to pursue, other than an area variance because the house remains the same and
is not being reconstructed or redesigned.
3. The requested area variance is not substantial because there is no increase in
the present degree of nonconformity.

Page 2 — May 5, 1999
ZBA Appl. No. 4675 - Hughes & Hulme
Parcel 1000-68-3-3
4. No evidence has been submitted or suggested that the grant of the variance would have an
adverse effect or impact on the physical or environmental conditions in the neighborhood or
district. The dwelling is being relocated further south of the existing top of the bluff and
south of the Coastal Zone Hazard Line.
5. The alleged difficulty is related to the topography and changes in soil conditions and
therefore is not self-created.
In considering this application, the Board deems the grant of a variance to relocate the
same single-family dwelling structure as requested to be the minimum necessary and
adequate, while preserving and protecting the character of the neighborhood, and the
health, safety, welfare of the community.
RESOLUTION/ACTION: On motion by Member Dinizio, seconded by Chairman Goehringer, it was
RESOLVED, to GRANT the variance, as applied for.
VOTE OF THE BOARD: AYES: MEMBERS GOEHRINGER, DIN , TORTO and COLLINS. rn r H nng of Fishers Island
was absent -excused.) This Resolution was duly adopted (40)., ' 2-7/

248 p.D.2d 527
Co., 244 A.D.2d 302, 663 N.Y.S2d 893). Ac-
cordingly, that branch of the motion of Har- In the Matter of John C. BAKER,
bour Point which was for summary judgment et al., Appellants,
dismissing this ,cause of action should have V. f,
(�'
been granted.
The plaintiff's Labor Law § 200 and com-
mon-law negligence causes of action also are
without merit. Once Harbour Point estab-
lished its entitlement to judgment as a mat-
ter of law, the plaintiff was required to "pro-
duce evidentiary proof in admissible form
sufficient to require a trial of material ques-
tions of fact on which he rests his claim"
(Zuckerman v. City of New York, 49 N.Y2d
557, 562, 427 N.Y.S2d 595, 404 N.E2d 718).
Here, the plaintiff did not even attempt to
raise any material issue of fact with respect
to negligence. Accordingly, those branches
of the cross motion of Harbour Point which
were for summary judgment dismissing
those branches of the complaint which were
to recover damages pursuant to Labor Law
§ 200 and common-law negligence should
have been granted.
The plaintiff has failed to set forth a valid
claim under Labor Law § 241(6). The plain-
tiff has not alleged in the complaint or the
bill of particulars a violation of any concrete
specification of the Industrial Code (see, 12
NYCRR part 23), and therefore has not
made the requisite showing to maintain a
claim under Labor Law § 241(6) (see, Ross v.
Curtis—Palmer Hydro—Elec. Co., 81 N.Y2d
494, 500, 601 N.Y.S2d 49, 618 N.E2d 82,
supra).
The parties' remaining contentions are ac-
ademic in light of our determination.

Supreme Court, Appellate Division,

March 16, 1998.
Property owners brought Article 78 pro-
ceeding to annul determination of Zoning
Board of Appeals denying application for
area variance and building permit. The Su-
preme Court, Suffolk County, Tanenbaum,
J., denied petition and dismissed proceeding.
Owners appealed. The Supreme Court, Ap-
pellate Division, held that denial of applica-
tion for -area variance allowing construction
of west -facing patio that would overlook har-
bor was arbitrary and capricious and would
therefore be annulled.
Judgment accordingly.
1. Zoning and Planning 0:-504
Denial by zoning board of appeals of
area variance sought by homeowners to per-
mit construction of west -facing patio whose
southern edge would begin 12.4 feet from
road, and thus would not conform to 40—foot
setback requirement, was arbitrary and ca-
pricious; although variance would be sub
stantial, proposed structure would have no
genuinely detrimental effect on neighboring
parcels, patio could not be located elsewhere
because its purpose was to face harbor to the
west of house, and patio would extend no
further than southerly edge of house as it
already existed. McKinney's CPLR 7801 et
seq.; McKinney's Town Law § 267—b, subd.
3(b).
2. Zoning and Planning 6-607

-MEMORANDUM BY THE COURT.
In a proceeding pursuant to CPLR article
78 to annul a determination of the Zoning
Board of Appeals of the Incorporated Village
of Dering Harbor dated March 16, 1996,
,t hich, after a hearing, denied the petitioners'
Application for a building permit and/or an
Irl -'a Variance, the petitioners appeal; from a
j"191'ent of the Supreme Court, 1Suffolk
County (Tanenbaum, J.), dated December 26,
1996, which denied the petition and dismissed
the proceeding.
ORDERED that the judgment is reversed,
the law, without costs or disbursements,
'he Petition is granted, the determination
dated March 16, 1996, is annulled, and the
^esPondents are directed to issue to the peti-
The petitioners are the owners of a single
family home situated on a waterfront parcel
of land in the Village of Dering Harbor on
Shelter Island. The petitioners' home is bor-
dered on the south by Dering Lane, and on
the west by Shore Road. Beyond Shore
Road is Dering Harbor. The petitioners
sought a building permit, or an area variance
if deemed necessary, to construct a concrete
patio along the western portion of their
home. This patio was to be equipped with
removable metal posts which would support a
canvas awning. The southern edge of the
patio was to be aligned with the southern
side of the house, flush with an enclosed
sunroom that had formerly been an open
porch overlooking Dering Lane.
After protracted proceedings and prior liti-
gation (see, Matter of Baker v. Edwards, 221
A.D.2d 436, 634 N.Y.S.2d 383), the Zoning
Board of Appeals of the Incorporated Village
of Dering Harbor (hereinafter the Board)
denied the petitioners' application finding
that the patio was a "building", as defined by
the village zoning code (see, Village of Der-
ing Harbor Code § 1-106[2][d] ), and that an
area variance would thus be necessary be-
cause the patio would be set back only 12.4
feet from the southern property line on Der-
ing Lane. The Board determined that the
patio was subject to a 40 -foot front -yard -
setback requirement and determined that the
petitioners were entitled to only a 4 -foot
variance as measured from the deed line on
Dering Lane. The petitioners challenge this
determination which effectively restricts
their ability to construct the subject patio.
The Supreme Court upheld this determina-
tion as having a rational basis. We now
reverse and grant the petition.
[1] It is now beyond cavil that the perti-
nent criteria for determining an application
for an area variance are those set forth by
Town Law § 267-b(3)(b) (see, Matter of Sas-
so v. Osgood, 86 N.Y.2d 374, 633 N.Y.S.2d
259, 657 N.E.2d 254). Pursuant to that stat-
ute, a zoning board of appeals must consider
whether the granting of the variance would
'ff. 1, 215
i
AM NEW YORK SUPPLEMENT, 2d q. --IES
result in an undesiranie change in the char-
acter of the neighborhood or a detriment to
neighboring properties; whether the benefit
desired can be achieved without the need for
a variance; whether the requested variance
is substantial; whether it will have an ad-
verse impact upon the physical or environ-
mental conditions in the neighborhood; and
whether the alleged difficulty is self-created.
[24] In reviewing a determination of a
zoning board of appeals to deny an applica-
tion for an area variance, the scope of judicial
review is limited to whether the action taken
is illegal, arbitrary, or an abuse of discretion
(see, Matter of Tarantino v. Zoning Bd.of
Appeals of Town of Brookhaven, 228 A.D.2d
511, 644 N.Y.S.2d 296; Matter of Smith v.
Board of Appeals, 202 A.D.2d 674, 609
N.Y.S.2d 912). The court may not substitute
its judgment for that of the Board unless its
determination is arbitrary or contrary to law
(see, Matter of Brueia v. Planning Bd. of
Town of Huntington, 157 A.D.2d 657, 549
N.Y.S.2d 757). If the Board's determination
is supported by substantial evidence and has
a rational basis, it will not be disturbed (see,
Matter of Fuhst v. Foley, 45 N.Y.2d 441, 410
N.Y.S.2d 56, 382 N.E.2d 756; Matter of Tar-
antino v. Zoning Bd. of Appeals of Town of
Brookhaven, supra; Matter of Watral v.
Scheyer, 223 A.D.2d 711, 637 N.Y.S.2d 431;
Matter of Romano v. Jenks, 220 A.D.2d 432,
631 N.Y.S.2d 875).
In this case, we find that the denial of the
petitioners' application for an area variance is
arbitrary, capricious, and not supported by
substantial evidence and thus we annul the
determination (see, Matter of Hampshire
Mgt. Co. v. Nadel, 241 A.D.2d 496, 660
N.Y.S.2d 64; Matter of Frank v. Scheyer,
227 A.D.2d 558, 642 N.Y.S.2d 956).
In denying the petitioners' application, the
Board made negative findings on each of the
five statutory factors. Its determinations,
however, are not rationally based upon evi-
dence in the record. For example, the Board
found that because houses in the area are
close together, the granting of the variance
would result in an undesirable change in the
neighborhood. Contrary to the Board's de-
termination, there is no evidence in the rec-
ord to support such a finding. Moreover,
even assuming that a concrete patio with
removable supports and a cloth awning con_
stitutes a building, the proposed patio "ill
face the water and will have no genuineh
detrimental impact upon neighboring parcels,
several others of which have received vari-
ances for other recreational improvements.
Furthermore, since the petitioners' desired
benefits to have a patio facing the water,
the Board's finding that it could be located
elsewhere on the petitioners' property ie
clearly erroneous.
The variance requested would permit the
southern side of the patio to begin 12.4 feet
from the Dering Lane property line. The
Board determined, in effect, that both the
Dering Lane and Shore Road sides of the
petitioners' corner lot were front yards, and
thus it determined that a front yard setback
of 40 feet was necessary. Assuming that
such a setback requirement applies, the peti-
tioners have sought a substantial variance.
However, it appears that the proposed patio
will be flush with the current southerly edge
of the house as it already exists, i.e., the
patio will extend no closer to Dering Lane
than the enclosed sunroom which is itself
12.4 feet from the property line. The pro-
posed patio, which presumably will be co�•-
ered with an awning only in warm weather,
will not have any appreciable impact on phys-
ical or environmental conditions in the area,
notwithstanding that a substantial variance
may be technically necessary.
[5] Finally, the mere fact that the peti-
tioners enclosed a formerly open porch facing
south on Dering Lane does not render their
plight a self-created hardship. This final
factor, which is not determinative in any
event, is inapplicable herein. The petitioners
desire a patio overlooking the harbor on the
west side of their property. The enclosure of
the former south -facing porch overlooking
Dering Lane is of no moment.
In short, since the Board's determination
is not supported by substantial evidence, but
appears to be wholly arbitrary and capl1-
cious, we vacate the determination and direct
the Board to issue the requested variance
and building permit, subject to any reason-

tered victim's premises with intent to commit
assault; state was not required to limit jury's

Dear Mr. Hughes and Ms. Hulme:
Based on the information you have submitted, the New York State Department of
Environmental Conservation has determined that:
The property landward of the topographic crest of the bluff as shown on the
survey prepared by Harold F. Tranchon Jr. P.C. dated July 29, 1998 is beyond
the jurisdiction of Article 25 (Tidal Wetlands). Therefore, in accordance with
the current Tidal Wetland Land Use Regulations (6NYCRR Part 661) no permit is
required under the Tidal Wetlands Act. Please be advised that no construction,
sedimentation, or disturbance of any kind may take place seaward of the tidal
wetlands jurisdictional boundary, as indicated above, without a permit. The
house is presently within 10 feet of the tidal wetland jurisdictional boundary
at its closest proximity. Since maintaining an adequate work area (15, to 201)
is not feasible, temporary silt fencing or row of staked hay bales shall be
placed at the landward edge of the tidal wetland boundary at commencement of
activities and remain in place until the project is completed. There shall be
no discharge of runoff or other effluent on, in or down the bluff face or onto
the beach.
It is your responsibility to ensure that all necessary precautions are taken
to prevent any sedimentation or other alteration or disturbance to the ground
surface or vegetation within Tidal Wetlands jurisdiction which may result from
your project.
Please be further advised that this letter does not relieve you of the
responsibility of obtaining any necessary permits or approvals from other
agencies.
