Box 1179 Southold, New York 11971 Fax (516) 765-1823 Telephone (516) 765-1800 Appl. No. 4188: Upon Application of RUSSELL IRELAND, JR. for a Variance to the Zoning Ordinance, Article XXIII, Section 100-239.4B for permission to construct open walkway between the bulkhead and the existing deck addition at the rear of the dwelling, which deck was required to be modified under Appeal No. 4163 on May 11, 1993 with a 15-ft. setback from the bulkhead rather than "as built." Location of Property: 5400 Great Peconic Bay Boulevard, Laurel,. NY; District 1000, Section 128, Block 2, Lot 12. This parcel contains a total area of 43,402 sq. ft. and is located in the R-40 Low-Density Residential Zone District. WHEREAS, after due notice, a public hearing was held on August 18, 1993, at which time all those who desired to be heard were heard and their testimony recorded; WHEREAS, the Board has carefully considered all testimony and documentation submitted concerning this application; WHEREAS, Board Members have personally viewed and are familiar with the premises in question, its present zoning, the surrounding areas; and and WHEREAS, the Board made the following findings of fact: 1. By this application, appellant is seeking a variance for a proposed deck and/or walkway between the dwelling and bulkhead, as shown on Plans A, B and/or C submission with this application. Each of the plans show a deck attachment located within 75 feet of the bulkhead. For reference purposes the Board of Appeals has, under Appeal No. 4163 rendered May 11, 1993, granted alternative relief for an open deck with a setback at not closer than 15 feet to the bulkhead and not closer than 11 feet from the easterly side property line. 2. The premises in question is identified on the Suffolk County Tax Maps as District 1000, Section 128, Block 2, Lot 12, and contains a total lot area of 43,402 sq. ft. and frontage along Peconic Bay Boulevard of 100 feet. This parcel is improved with a 1-1/2 story frame dwelling, which received a Building Permit issued May 31, 1984 under No. 13177Z to "...replace under-pinning on house and build a kitchen addition, as applied for .... " It is known that the present house was built as a new Page 2 - Appl. No. 4188 Matter of RUSSELL IRELAND, JR. Decision Rendered August 18, 1993 dwelling since the dwelling structure which existed prior to 1984 was removed and damaged in 1983 or 1984 resulting from storm activities. The prior dwelling location and size is shown on the survey prepared by Robert A. Kart dated October 21, 1980 with a setback of approximately nine (9') from the bulkhead. 3. The existing dwelling, without the deck, is shown on the March 18, 1993 survey to be set back 38.4 feet from the southeast corner of the house to the bulkhead structure along Great Peconic Bay at its closest point. The present open deck area was added during about 1985, or shortly thereafter, for which no written permit or other written authorization was found to exist. The Building Inspector's records show that the permit that was issued was not for this particular deck. The deck as exists, and to be modified to conform with the May 11, 1993 decision of the Board of Appeals, presently contains a square footage of approximately 1052 sq. ft. 4. Article X~III, Section 100-239.4B of the Zoning Code requires all buildings and structures located on lots upon which a bulkhead, concrete wall, rip-rap or similar structure exists and which is adjacent to tidal water bodies other than the Long Island Sound to be set back not less than seventy-five (75) feet. 5. It is the position of the Board that the amount of relief requested in Option "A" submitted by the applicant is substantial. This sketch shows a large deck area, probably 800 sq. ft., which is only strictly different from the request made under Appeal No. 4163, and denied by the Board of Appeals. This proposed extension of deck area, when added to the previous relief granted in May 1993 by the Board of Appeals, is substantial, particularly since the house was moved farther away from the original house location and the new deck area was greatly expanded from the original deck (existing during and prior to 1984) of approximately 200 sq. ft. of deck area to 940+- sq. ft. of deck area. The percentage of relief requested for the deck expansion is substantial at 100% from the required standards. Option "B" also shows a large deck area connecting the deck to the bulkhead which is substantial at 100% from the required standards. Option "C" shows a deck area approximately 20 feet in width (dimensions not shown on applicant's sketches) connecting the bulkhead to the new deck area to be modified for conformance with the Board's May 1993 decision. 6. It is the position of the Board that Sketch Options "A," "B," and/or "C" are substantial and are not the minimum necessary. 7. It is also the position of this Board that in considering this application: Page 3 - Appl. No. 8 Matter of RUSSELL IRELAND, JR. Decision Rendered August 18, 1993 (a) there are alternatives available for appellants to pursue - such as a six-foot wide bridge-type walkway connecting the open deck to the bulkhead, or to fill the area between the to-be-modified deck and the bulkhead with gravel, stone, or other materials; (b) the relief, as requested is not consistent with the essential character of the neighborhood - and the grant of these types of decks will set a precedent for neighboring landowners to follow, at odds with the intent of the zoning regulations; (c) the difficulties claimed are self-created and are not related to the uniqueness of the property; (d) the variance will in turn be adverse to the safety, health, welfare, comfort, convenience and order of the town and neighboring properties - construction of substantial deck areas within 75 feet of the bulkhead as proposed could create adverse effects, and direct wave action durinq storm periods towards the dwelling, instead of into the gr6und areas behind the bulkhead;' (e) in view of all the above, the interests of justice will be served by not granting the relief as requested. Accordingly, on motion by Member Wilton, seconded by Member Dinizio, it was RESOLVED, that the relief requested for a deck addition expansion, as requested for Sketch Options A, B, and/or C, are hereby DENIED; and BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED, that alternative relief for a limited six-foot wide (unroofed, open) bridge-type deck with safety railings on both sides be GRANTED as a walkway for access purposes between the modified deck area (as per decision under Appeal No. 4163 dated May 11, 1993), and the existing bulkhead. Vote of the Board: Dinizio, Villa, Wilton. RECEIVED AND FILED THE SOUTHOLD TOWN CLERK DATE q}/lq3 HOUR Ayes: Messrs. Doyen, Goehringer, This resolution was duly adopted. P.

ARNOFF, ESQ., Town Attorney LINDA KOWALSKI, Clerk-Assistant to Board ZBA Hearings 6 August 18, 1993 APPLICATION NO. 4188 - RUSSELL IRELAND~ JR for a Variance to the Zoning Ordinance, Article XXIII, Section 100-239.4B for permission to construct open walkway between the bulkhead and the existing deck addition at ~he ~ear of the dwelling, which deck was required to be modified under Appeal No. 4163 on May 11, 1993 wi~h a 15-ft. setback from the bulkhead rather than "as built."

This parcel contains a total area of 43,402 sq. ft. and is located in the R-40 Low-Density Residential Zone District. 7:35 p.m. (The Chairman opened the hearing and read the Legal Notice and application for the record.) THE CHAIRMAN: I have a copy of the survey indicating, 'penned in, that specific area which is to be removed --You look at that one and I'll get 'the other in a second-- and I have a copy of the Suffolk County Tax Map indicating this and surrounding properties in the area. Sir, would you like to be heard? Kindly state your name for the record? Appearance: Peter Wilson, Architect, for the Applicant. Yes, I am Peter Wilson. I am the architect for Mr. Ireland who, unfortunately, is out of the country for the hearing. ZBA Hearings 7 August 18, 1993 to say? THE CHAIRMAN: Okay. What can I --What would you like MR. WILSON: First of all, I am not too sure that the language of the application made clear that this'is a pre-existing deck, It has been there since 1984. The reason that the deck takes the configuration it takes is because there is an unusual storm scouring action that occurs along that bulkhead, and it is very, very difficult for Mr. Ireland to retain the soil, the sands fill behind that bulkhead, and the reason he has covered that portion and the reason it stretches out into such an unusual shape is to mitigate that kind of action. If he has to remove the deck, he will have to probably put in some form of retainage behind it, and of course he is very concerned about the expense of doing that, as well as whether or not retainage would in fact do the Job. THE CHAIRMAN: What type of retainage would you be referring to? MR. WILSON: Well, I would suspect --I don't think we have really given that a great deal of detailed thought, but I would imagine that we would probably have to place a six-by-six CCA retaining wall running probably along the perimeter of the deck that is left over, that is, the 15-foot line-- something that would prevent the water from actually sweeping the sand back up underneath the deck and the house, which is what is happening now. In addition to that, I am not too sure that that ZBA Hearings 8 August 18, 1993 would really work. I imagine that he would have to supplement that with a considerably rigorous planting program, and I am not really certain that any of those things would work. Right now the deck, the waves come up over the bulkhead, hit the bulkhead, come up over the top, and the deck actually functions as a break for the water so that by the'time the water reaches the soil underneath, it doesn't have any velocity. And the deck works fairly well. In fact, it worked pretty well in our December storm;.although he did sustain damage to the deck itself, he didn't lose a lot of soil underneath it, and that is why he went to the expense of putting the deck in in that manner originally. THE CHAIRMAN: The thing that I found interesting when I was down there was the fact that there was really no -backfilling in back of the bulkhead. MR. WILSON: Well, that is partly because, you know he really doesn't have to do that because of the presence of the deck. Now if he were to have to remove the deck, and have a 15-foot open area, he would have to backfill that; and in addition to backfilling it, he w6uld have to put some kind of retai, nage in there to prevent it from being washed out again;~ and from what I understand --I haven't been there during normal storm-- but from what I understand, water comes over that bulkhead even during normal storms, notwithstanding the Storm we had in December. ZBA Hearings 9 August 18, 1993 THE CHAIRMAN: Isn't there some sort of material that they now use on the inside of the bulkhead which prohibits-- MR. WILSON: I am not familiar with it. THE CHAIRMAN (continuing): There is, 'I mean --just a quick situation. On the side of the house now instead of using tar paper, they use tiebacks, okay. There is some sort of, it is a type of matting material that they use which prohibits the sand from penetrating through the upright boards and, conceivably, the bulkhead has to be partially, you know, backfilled. There is no question of that. MR. WILSON: He'll have to bring it up to grade anyway because right now there is a substantial drop there from the deck level, and so he'll probably have to fill that. Anyway, I certainly don't think he would want a canyon between his deck and the backside of that bulkhead. The bulkhead certainly isn't going to be very attractive to look at, and it certainly wouldn't be very safe. But it not clear to me that the placement of an add-in or anything else there is going to keep the wave action back from coming over the top and actually washing the sand underneath the house, which is what would happen if that deck isn't there. THE CHAIRMAN: I see. MR. WILSON: I am not familiar with the material you are referring to. I am not saying that it doesn't exist, but I ZBA Hearings 10 August 18, 1993 would frankly be skeptical as to whether or not it would actually work. THE CHAIRMAN: Without getting too belabored, are you --I should point out to you that the reason for'the Board's decision-- and I am not speaking for the Board because they are all here and they can jump in at any time-- was mainly because this Board is not necessarily tuned to the granting of zero line --and it is not really zero because it goes with the high-water mark, Okay-- rear-yard.setbacks in reference to decks; and we don't do it on the Sound because on the Sound you may be 40, 50, 60 feet in the air. You could be 150 feet in the air, and we don't do it to the lip of the bluff, and we don't do it usually on the Bay. This is something that we are not attuned to. It is not kin to us, all right. MR. WILSON: I would like to point out, if I may, that this deck I believe was constructed prior to the initiation of this law. THE CHAIRMAN: I am familiar with the entire case. THE CLERK: Without permits, without a building permit. MR. WILSON: It was done under a construction permit and it was not C of O'd, that's correct. It was not C of O'd. THE CHAIRMAN: It was done under a-- THE CLERK: No, there is no permit on it; I checked already. ZBA Hearings 11 August 18, 1993 MEMBER WILTON: When you say the sand washes up to the house, what is the source of the sand? Is that on the bayside? MR. WILSON: No, it would be any sand that you placed in there against that bulkhead, would be scoured out-- MEMBER WILTON: Landward. MR. WILSON: You s~e, that whole section is a former drainage soil, if. you are familiar with that. THE CHAIRMAN: Yes. MR. WILSON: At one time apparently it was a creek perhaps. In fact, I think it was a creek; as I understand now, the fresh water has gone underground and surfaces out at the bay, and so it's at a very low elevation. His house is indeed up on pilings. It is about 4 feet I think to the base level of the house, and apparently it is the way that that piece of 'p~0Perty juts out into the bay at that point and gets the southeast "blast" if you Will, it comes across and catches that point and hits th'at bulkhead with a lot of velocity and comes up over the top of it. If you will notice on the plan, that the bulkhead does actually curve at that point and goes considerably inland, and that the bordering p~operties are actualy set back further. MEMBER WILTON: It appears when you look at the neighboring properties their grade line is at the bulkhead height or a little bit higher. When you look at Mr. Ireland's ZBA Hearings 12 August 18, 1993 property, and trap it there. MR. WILSON: that hollow is there, he has a hollow there, which would attract the water As I understand, there is a reason that and that is because in the December storm, as I understand it, it ripped out part of a deck and then proceeded to scour out what fill he did have in there. The properties that are to the west, that are further down the bulkhead, are apparently not affected by that velocity because they are further down the bulkhead. The area that he gets scoured out is the area that acts like an elbow that sticks out, it actually sticks out in to the bay; and as you get further and further away from that point, the scouring, the wave action apparently is not as effective. I think the same thing is true that people to the east of that, they are set way back and they don't have the same type.of situation that he has. THE CHAIRMAN: I can understand your statement. The only thing I don't understand is, if you had this velocity of wave, why hasn't it actually undermined or disrupted the bulkhead? Why hasn't it actually broken the stays out of the bulkhead, and so on and so forth? MR. WILSON: First of all, as I understand it, the bulkheads were replaced some years ago. I don't know exactly when-- ZBA Hearings 13 August 18, 1993 THE CHAIRMAN: But I mean, when ¥ou have that kind of velocity against the bulkhead, which is not backfilled you know, it is amazing that the stays themselves haven't broken away. MR. WILSON: Well, I suspect that .the.deck structure has been acting as a brace for it, and that is probably the only reason why they haven't been knocked over. I know that he replaced that entire bulkhead along there some time ago. I did not see it prior to that, so I can't tell you why it was deteriorated. Perhaps it was just old. But I suspect that probably the battering that that takes had something to do with that. THE CHAIRMAN: I just want to tell you, as far back as I go, with this particular piece of property, is approximately 1960 when I don't believe there was even a house there. I believe what it was was a cottage, were a common-use building --I won't get into yacht .club or anything of that nature-- for the community in the back and the surrounding houses around. I am perfectly aware of what happened to it in the early eighties and storm NeLson in 1983 because I went down and saw half of the house in the water and the other half still up on the bulkhead-- MR. WILSON: I am sure you are more familiar with the property than I am. THE CHAIRMAN: And I do understand; you do bring an interesting twist to this whole dilemma. There is no question about it. Just so you are aware of the situation. ZBA Hearings 14 August 18, 1993 MR. WILSON: Frankly it does have a particular quality, and, as I said, the reason why he built the deck that way in the first place, he doesn't' really need that much deck. I am sure you have seen it and know there is'a lot of deck there. As I understand it, once again, I was not, I didn't know Mr~ Ireland back then, but as I understand it, what he tells me, the purpose of that deck is to reduce the scouring action, that he had trouble keeping fill behind the bulkhead. THE CHAIRMAN: We will ask Mr. Villa: this gentleman? MEMBER VILLA: We do have an engineer on the Board. Is there anything you would like to ask Well, what are proposal A, B and C here where they are proposing to take some of the decking away? THE CHAIRMAN: Do you want to go through that with us? · . MR. WILSON: Yes, I believe --obviously he would like to keep all the decking, ~ight, for the reasons stated. But in the interest of compromise, and he felt he would offer these three graphic scenarios. One of them removes a portion of the decking that goes right up to the far eastern portion and nips off a part a little bit of the area in the back. It is not clear to me, frankly, how he would combat the wave action along that edge, which is one of the serious -- THE CHAIRMAN (interposing): Which option are you on right now? ZBA Hearings 15 August 18, 1993 MR. WILSON: little as possible. THE CHAIRMAN: This is the option "A" which reduces as Okay. MR. WILSON: And I believe what hi~ reasoning here was was to get within the side yard setbacks. I think that is the rationale behind that. THE CLERK: We don't have any dimensions for that though. MR. WILSON: I believe you can scale that. This is made to scale, and I believe you can scale, if you relate it to the deck. What it does is it actually conforms to the side yard setbacks. I didn't draw these plans. Mr. Ireland did. This again is more or less arbitrary determination to keep some of the deck. I don't really understand frankly what the rationale 'behind that is. THE CHAIRMAN: You are referring to "B" now? MR. WILSON: Yes. I think "C", I think he was given to believe that he would be allowed to keep 250 square foot of deck. I frankly don't know where that came from, but the-- THE CHAIRMAN: So "C" would more or less go along with the decision that was rendered? MR. WILSON: I believe so, right. MEMBER VILLA: Not really because it doesn't go back --15-foot setback from the bulkhead. ZBA Hearings 16 August 18, 1993 moment, THE CHAIRMAN: By the nature of the application before us he is requesting this effect --This is actually a bridge. MR. WILSON: Obviously a little bigger than a bridge. THE CHAIRMAN: What we need from him is the approximate size of the square footagewise and the lineal distance along the bulkhead.if you would, if you would just give him a call and ask him to-- MR. WILSON: I don't think I have to do that. I think I can give it to you right now. THE CHAIRMAN: Great. MR. WILSON: If we can stay with Scheme "C" for the I think that gives him 24 feet of frontage. THE CHAIRMAN: Existing on the ramp you are referring to. bulkhead. out now? MR. WILSON: On the portion that interfaces with the THE CHAIRMAN: Okay. What about the piece that is cut MR. WILSON: On the easternmost piece reduces by approximately 38 feet; the westernmost piece reduces by approximately 25 feet; and I don't know that you need that other leg in there, that returns north, but that is somewhere in the neighborhood of 26 feet. ZBA Hearings 17 August 18, 1993 THE CHAIRMAN: Does anybody have an interest in Option "A"? On the Board, so that this gentleman doesn't have to go through it? (There was no affirmative response.) THE CHAIRMAN: Okay, we will eliminate option "A" then and go on to "B". MR. WILSON: Option "B" leaves him with 48 feet of net deck area, and it removes about 15 feet from the westernmost portion and the same amount, about 25 feet, from the easternmost portion. THE CHAIRMAN: MEMBER VILLA: Okay. Either the scale is wrong, or something is not right because it shows on the survey 101 feet along that bulkhead; and if you add up with option "C" in three dimensions you gave us, you get 87 THE CHAIRMAN: MEMBER VILLA: THE CHAIRMAN: feet. But that is on a diagonal. It is a diagonal on both sketches. You know, Bob,to be perfectly honest with you, dealing with Peconic Bay Boulevard, I find that to be one of the most bizarre areas to try to develop frontage because even' though you are buying a hundred-foot lot, you end up with 85 feet based on the diagonal. MR. WILSON: The existing bulkhead does not go the full length of the property line. It runs short of that. MEMBER VILLA: But there is no dimensions on that. ,' ZBA Hearings 18 August 18, 1993 MR. WILSON: am sure he took it off THE CHAIRMAN: I am sure this is eight scale because I the site plan. Okay. We thank you very, very much. It was a pleasure meeting you, sir. Are there any other questions of this nice gentleman? MEMBER DINIZIO: Well, I am just wondering if you are concerned about the bulkhead and this deck is doing what you say it is there for, then why wouldn't he suggest that maybe just a 4-foot catwalk along the entire bulkhead, not connected to the deck at all -- Why wouldn't that be an option? Or why wouldn't you try? MR. WILSON: A 4-foot-wide catwalk would really not do anything. MEMBER DINIZIO: What do you say to 6 feet? I mean, would there be an option? Why are you --I would think you would be more adamant to try to-save the land behind that and try somehow to preserve that land, as opposed to connecting the deck to the house, which is in effect what he seems wanting to do. THE CHAIRMAN: Well, ! think he answered that question, and that is the strength issue, okay? The strength issue of connecting it is giving him the over-all strength he needs - one, the bulkhead gets back-- MEMBER DINIZIO: But it certainly won't when you only have 24 feet there. He has no strength whatsoever now on either end, if you go with option "C". ZBA Hearings 19 August 18, 1993 MR. WILSON: Excuse me. What he would have to do with any of these options other than what is there now, is he would have to place fill behind that bulkhead; and he would have to keep replacing it; everytime he had a storm 'action that removed it, he would have to put it back, or he would have to build another bulkhead back along 'the fifteen-foot line that would be designed to keep the fill from scouring out. I am not too sure you understand the problem. The waves come up over the top. The waves would come right up over the top of the four-foot-catwalk and go right into that open gully and still scour everything out of there. Now these compromises that he is suggesting here are all just that. They are going to create some problems for him; but he felt that you were probably going to be unwilling to accept the status quo, and so he is trying to · resPond to that. I am not too sure he has got all the answers here. If you have got a better one, I am sure he would be interested. MEMBER DINIZIO: That would be my answer. If not four feet, then what about slx feet? If not six feet, then what about ten feet? I mean, I think our concern was that this thing was attached --everything seemed to be attached to the house and seemed to be running to the house, and you know that was not a good situation. MR. WILSON: The attachment is not necessarily his objection. What his objective is, is to cover that area with a ZBA Hearings 20 August 18, 1993 horizontal surface that will prevent waves that hit that bulkhead and probably leap 20 feet into the air, in a good storm, and come down and then scour out that sand. I don't think he is as much preoccupied with attaching as he is keeping that thing from scouring out. Obviously the deck also is a usable surface for him as well; and he would like to be able to get to the bulkhead. MEMBER DINIZIO: deck, to him enjoying I have no objection to him having a But you know, in light of the fact that of our decision before, okay, and what you are saying to me now, to my mind the next logical step would have been to try to protect what is behind that bulkhead as much as possible. MR. WILSON: You are saying that rather than have a 24-foot wide, what about a bridge if you want to call it, take that square footage and distribute it like a catwalk? MEMBER DINIZIO: Right, right. MR. WILSON: Well, the problem with that, once again, I don't think it really would solve his problem. I think he would still have to fill behind that and underneath that catwalk, and he would still get washout there. I think what he was 'trying to do with the deck configuration he has got there, obviously if you stretch a four-foot-wide deck across the whole front of the bulkhead, you are going to spend every bit of that 250 square feet and then some, and it is not usable surface. He is not necessarily trying to walk all along the bulkhead. That ZBA Hearings 21 August 18, 1993 is not his objective. What he wanted, he wanted two things: To prevent the scouring and, secondly, to give him an access to that bulkhead whereupon he can get back and forth to the beach. MEMBER DINIZIO: Well, like I said, I just thought that may have been a viable option. MR. WILSON: There may have been several different shapes or configurations he could have tried here. Frankly, these are the three he came up with. I can't really address that. MEMBER DINIZIO: Okay. THE CHAIRMAN: Thank you again. Is there anybody else who would like to speak, either for or against this application? (There was no response.) THE CHAIRMAN: Seeing no hands, I make a motion ciosing the hearing and reserving decision until later. (Seconded and carried; see Clerk's Minutes.) THE CHAIRMAN: Thank you again, sir.

No. 4163: Upon Application of RUSSELL IRELAND, JR. for Variances to the Zoning Ordinance: (a) Article IIIA, Section 100-30A.4 {100-33B-3} for permission to locate accessory garage with a side yard setback at less than the required 10 feet; (b) Article XXIII, Section 100-239.4B for approval of a proposed new deck addition and for grandfather approval of existing deck addition built prior to May 1985, all of which is located within 75 feet of the bulkhead along Great Peconic Bay and with reduced easterly side yard to less than the 20 feet, and total side yards to less than 35 feet, as required by Article IIIA, Section i00-30A.3. Location of Property: 5400 Great Peconic Bay Boulevard, Laurel, NY; County Tax Map Parcel No. 1000-128-2-12. This parcel contains a total lot area of 43,402 sq. ft. and is located in the R-40 Low-Density Residential Zone District. WHEREAS, a public hearing was held on April 22, 1993, and at said hearing all those who desired to be heard were heard and their testimony recorded; WHEREAS, the Board has carefully considered all testimony and documentation submitted concerning this application; WHEREAS, Board Members have personally viewed and are familiar with the premises in question, its present zoning, the surrounding areas; and and WHEREAS, the Board made the following findings of fact: 1. By this application, appellant seeks a variance under Article IIIA, Section 100-30A.2, which refers to Section 100-33 for permission to locate a 22' by 22' accessory building for garage purposes in the front yard area with a distance at five feet from the westerly prpperty line and approximately 300 feet from the northerly (frontJ property line. 2. Also proposed in this application are: Page 2 - Appl. No. 4163 Matter of RUSSELL IRELAND, JR. Decision Rendered May 11, 1993 (a) a requested reduction of the side yards for a proposed addition at the easterly side of the existing dwelling leaving a reduced setback at 1i feet from the easterly side line (instead of the required 20 feet) and 38 feet from the bulkhead, at its closest points. The total side yards is also requested to be reduced from 35 feet to 26.2 feet. (b) a reduction in the setback to the bulkhead for an expansion of the previous deck area {which was removed and later rebuilt without building permits according to town files}. The new deck area as expanded and existing today is shown On the survey map prepared by Peconic Surveyors, P.C. as revised March 18, 1993 physicially attached to the bulkhead along Great Peconic Bay. 2. The premises in question is identified on the Suffolk County Tax Maps as District 1000, Section 128, Block 2, Lot 12, and contains a total lot area of 43,402 sq. ft. and frontage along Peconic Bay Boulevard of 100 feet. This parcel is improed with a 1-1/2 story frame dwelling, which received a Building Permit issued May 31, 1984 under No. 13177Z to "...replace under-pinning on house and build a kitchen addition, as applied for." It is known that the present house was built as a new dwelling since the dwelling structure which which existed prior to 1984 was removed and damaged in 1983 or 1984 resulting from storm activities. The prior dwelling location and size is shown on the survey prepared by Robert A. Kart dated October 21, 1980 with a setback of approximately nine (9') from the bulkhead. 3. The existing dwelling, without the deck, is shown on the March 18, 1993 survey to be set back 38.4 feet from the southeast corner of the house to the bulkhead structure along Great Peconic Bay at its closest point. The open deck area existing between the new house location and the bulkhead contains a square footage of approximately 1052 sq. ft. 4. Article XXIII, Section 100-239.4B of the Zoning Code requires all buildings and structures located on lots upon which a bulkhead, concrete wall, rip-rap or similar structure exists and which is adjacent to tidal water bodies other than the Long Island Sound to be set back not less than seventy-five (75) feet. 5. Article IIIA, Section 100-30A.4 of the Zoning Code requires accessory buildings when located in the rear yard area to be setback a minimum of 10 feet from the side property line. Article IIIA, Section 100-33C, added December 22, 1992, provides that in the case of a waterfront parcel, accessory buildings may be located in the front yard with the understanding that the building be set back at the same rule as for principal (building) Page 3 - Appl. No. 4163 Matter of RUSSELL IRELAND, JR. Decision Rendered May 11, 1993 setbacks. The code requirement for principal setbacks in this R-40 Zone District is 15 feet as a minimum for one sideyard (and at 50 feet minimum from the front line). 6. It is the position of the Board that the amount of side yard relief requested for the garage is substantial at 33%, meeting only 67% of the standard required. The relief requested for the dwelling at i1 feet (instead of the required 20 feet) is also substantial, however the dwelling structure as existed previously was at the same or similar setback of 11+- feet. 7. It is the position of the Board that the amount of relief requested for the setback from the bulkhead from the new house location is substantial, particularly since the house was moved farther away from the original house location and the new deck area was greatly expanded from approximately 200 sq. ft. of deck area to 1,052+- sq. ft. of deck area. The percentage of relief requested for the deck is substantial at 100% from the required standards. 8. It is also the position of this Board that in considering this application: (a) the relief requested for the garage and the deck addition near the bulkhead is not the minimum necessary to afford relief, and there are alternatives available for appellants to pursue, with greater set backs and less relief from the standards applied; (b) the relief, as requested is not consistent with the essential character of the neighborhood; (c) the difficulties are not entirely uniquely related to the property and are personal in nature; (d) the variance would in turn be adverse to the safety, health, welfare, comfort, convenience or order of the town and neighboring properties; (e) in view of all the above, the interests of justice will be served by not granting the relief as requested. Accordingly, on motion by Member Wilton, seconded by Member Dinizio, it was RESOLVED, that the relief requested for the addition with reduction in easterly side yard, for a setback at 11 feet, be and hereby is APPROVED as applied; and BE IT Page 4 - Appl. No. 4163 Matter of RUSSELL IRELAND, JR. Decision Rendered May 11, 1993 FURTHER RESOLVED, that the relief requested for the garage setback at five feet and for the deck addition attached to the bulkhead, as applied under Appeal No. 4163 in the Matter of RUSSELL IRELAND, JR. be and hereby is DENIED, as applied, and the FOLLOWING ALTERNATIVE IS GRANTED: 1. That the deck addition be not closer than 15 feet to the existing bulkhead, at its closest point; 2. That the deck addition remain open and unroofed, as exists; 3. That the proposed accessory garage building be located at a distance of 10 feet (or more at the option of the applicant) from the westerly side property line and in the same general front area shown on the application-survey map; 4. That the proposed garage building remain accessory and incidental to the residence for storage purposes, not to be operated for profitable purposes, and shall not be converted to residential use. Vote of the Board: Ayes: Messrs. Goehringer, Dinizio and Wilton. (Members Villa and Doyen were absent.) This resolution was duly adopted. lk GERARD P.
