· Page 2 - Appl. No. 3592
Matter of BENTE SNELLENBURG
Decision Rendered November 18,
1987
east side of South Harbor Road, Hamlet of Southold, Town of
Southold.
3. The subject premises contains a total area of 1.O±
acre(s), and the copy of survey prepared by Otto W. VanTuyl
& Son dated October 14, 1960 depicts a single-family,
two-story frame dwelling, an accessory one-car garage, and
two accessory sheds.
4. Article XI, Section lO0-119.1B permits fences, walls,
hedges, or other live plantings within five feet of the
property lines and when located along side or rear lot lines
not exceeding six-and-one-half feet.
5. It is the position of this Board that a grant of
the variance to permit the fence height to remain at eight
feet is not warranted for the reasons given in the
appellant's record. The percentage of relief requested
is not the minimal necessary, being a variance of 24% of
the requirement.
6. Article XII, Section 141 provides as follows:
...No building in any district shall be erected,
reconstructed, restored or structurally altered
without a building permit duly issued upon appli-
cation to the Building Inspector...
7. It is the position of this Board that a Building
Permit application and consideration therefor is required
for all buildings. A "fence" falls within the category of
"building" as defined by Section 100-13 of the Zoning Code.
8. It is also the opinion of this Board that: (a)
there are other methods feasible for appellant to pursue
other than a variance; (b) the relief requested is not
within the character of the immediate area and will be a
substantial change, creating other precedents to follow;
(c) the practical difficulties claimed are not sufficient
to warrant the granting of the relief requested; (d) the
circumstances of the property are not unique; (e) there
will not be an increase in population density thus created
by this variance; (f) that in view of all the above
factors, the interests of justice will be served by denying
the relief requested, as further noted below.
Accordingly, on motion by Mr. Douglass, seconded by
Mr. Grigonis, it was determined as follows:
1. A building permit is required for the subject fence;
2. The relief requested for the fence at a maximum height
of eight feet is denied;
3. The fence shall be permitted
not to exceed 6½ feet provided it is
appellant's property and not onto the
to remain at a height
located within the
neighboring property;
4. The 6½ ft. height of the fence shall not encroach into
the frontyard area (as provided by Section lO0-119.1A of the
Zoning Code).
Vote of the Board: Ayes: Messrs. ~o i~~I
Douglass and Sawicki. (Member Doyen of qis~Es$(I)~.TO~I~aTO~bNe~.)
This resolution was duly adopted.

REASON FOR APPEAL
Continued :
[a'rea tv e
1, vSaT~cAe~PLICATION OF THE ORDINANCE would produce procticaI difficuities~
~-9~:~¥FTqA:E~S~he~ause appellant's pre-existing parcel is only 120' wide
~'ZO-i~0w or 175'); the easterly side yard ls only 10 ~ appellant must
use her rear yard for deck typ~ recreational purposes. The easterly
adjoining lot, with a new dwelling facing south~ is 200~ long x 105~ deep;
that lot's deck/seating area is only ~ from appellant~s property line
and rear yard. Appellant replaced existing fencing and plantings with a
144' stockade fence to afford both parties a modicum of privacy and %o
overcome the proximity of recreational areas of the two parcels° Only
the center 72' of the fence is over 6 1/2' in height (24~ of 6~? 72~ of
8'; 20' of 6').
2. The hardshipcreatedis UNIQUEand isnotshared by all propeffies oli~ in the immediate
vicinity of this property and in this use district because of.configuration of the easterly
parcels. Appellant's front yard is screened by evergreen plantings
satisfactory to appellant and the adjoining owner. Evergreens have not
thrived in the rear yard. Uniqueness exists in the property configura-
tions aforesaid. Appellant's pre-existing parcel abuts a filed map
with parcels differently juxtoposed so as to place rear/side yards in
immediate proximity.
3. The Variance would observe the spirit of the O~inance and WOULD NOT CHANGE THE
CHARACTER OF THE DISTRICT because the replacement fence is not visible from
~ublic h%qhways. I~ separates appell~n~'s~rear/sid~ v~rd from~t~e .
a]omner s rear var~, an~ is a substitute zor the p±ahLings an~ ~enclng
which separated ~he parcels prior to the erection of the adjoiner's ne~
dwelling. Appellant's property has always been entirely fenced on three
sides, except for the beach area.
4. In support of her appeal pursuant to Town Law Section 267~ subd. 2~
appellant asserts that the Building Inspector has erroneously interpreted
Article 100 $100-141 of the Ordinance. Appellant's property was fenced
prior to the 1957 enactment of the ordinance. Appellant replaced the
pre-existing fencing with a different type. No building permit can be
required for such replacement.

Board Members present: Chairman Gerard P. Goehringer, Members

Also present were: Victor Lessard, Building-Dept..Administrator,
Linda Kowalski, Board Secretary, and approximately 12 persons in
the audience.
The Chairman reconvened the hearing at 9:18 p.m.
CHAIRMAN GOEHRINGER: This is the last hearin.g, hearing opened
lastly I believe on 4/20/87 and we will continue with the hear-
ing at this p~rticular time. I will ask the applicant or the
agent for the applicant if he would like to say anything, and
that's Judge Snellenburg.
JUDGE SNELLENBURG: Mr. Chairman. Gentlemen. I'm appearing in
behalf of my wife who is not well at the moment. I'll ask the
Board to dispense with her appearance. There are two matters
before the Board. An appeal from a determination of the Building
Inspector requiring a building permit and a variance with respect
to fence height. The appeal presents the question of law. I
submitted a statement, or she submitted a statement back in March,
I believe it was. March 5th. And it was March 5th. And we
submitted a statement. The first issue presents a question of
law, which I will ask the Board to determine--the question with
respect to the variance is set forth in the application and the
statement I would like to hand to you at this point. (Statement
the same as previously submitted on 3/5/87). I am not the
property owner, as you know.
CHAIRMAN: I know. That's why I say you are ~he agent for the
property owner.
JUDGE SNELLENBURG: Yes.

ZBA Regular Meeting - July 17,
1987
CHAIRMAN: We'll see what develops throughout the hearing. Thank
you very much. Mr. Cardinale, would you like to speak?
PHILIP CARDINALE, ESQ.: Yes. Good evening. As you know, I am
here representing Jean Dean, adjacent property owner. And origi-
nally I was representing her husband as well. He passed away in
March suddenly, so that's the reason why this hearing has been
delayed, among other reasons. The Board 'is asked to consider
as Judge Snellenburg indicated two questions. I'll address it
very briefly. The first, which is the issue of whether a building
permit is required. In January, Donald Dean had written a letter
to the Board, a copy of which I have here and which I am sure is
in the file, and I will elude to that letter because it contains
a number of arguments that I'll advance tonight. But certainly
since the statute now requires clearly for a fence a building
permit, considering it a building, specifically, and certainly
since the fence that was there was a four ft..open fence, I
forget what they call it--
CHAIRMAN: Split rail.
MR. CARDINALE; Split rail--public policy would almost dictate
that when someone is removing preexisting fence, even assuming
it to be preexisting, and replacing it with a fence of a differ-
ent type, that a building permit would be required. And even
if it wasn't required, certainly a variance would be required
here. The rest of the few moments of the Board time I will
address on the variance. The standard as you well know is
practical difficulty and unnecessary hardship unique to the
petitioner resulting from the denial, and of course the burden
is the petitioner's. If the Board concludes at the end of this
hearing in consideration of what it hears and has in its file
that to grant the variance would be destructive of the purposes
of the ordinance, and it shouldn't. The good news here is as
far as I can tell this is not an issue of a spite fence or a
neighbor's squabbling. The legitimate dispute set forth before
the Board here of whether or not this 72 ft. section which is
clearly in noncompliance with the 6½ ft. statute can be supported
by practical difficulty and unnecessary hardship unique to the
petitioner. We contend that it clearly cannot be. If you look
at the petition and the reasons advanced in the petition, and
then in a moment look at the appeal from the order to comply
from the Building Department, the reasons advanced I submit are
Page 2 - ZBA Hearing Transcript
Appl. No. 3592 - SNELLENBURG
ZBA Regular Meeting ~ July 17, 1987
PHILIP J. CARDINALE, ESQ. (continued):
not strong. The practical difficulties in this situation we
contend are not great to the petitioner. We contend further
the hardship is not unique, and more particularly self~imposed,
self-inflicted. And finally we contend that the character of
the district in the area would in fac~ be changed by such
stockade fence of eight ft. The petition indicates that
the appellant's preexisting parcel is only 120 ft. wide, whereas
the buildings built closer are 150 or 175. That may be true,
but if you look at the Tax Lot Map, this is as wide as most of
the other lots in the surrounding area, so that it is not unique
as to width, and we contend that it is not unique further in any
pertinent way. The issue of the uniqueness I'll elude to--in
passing if he insists but I'll leave it to your consideration.
The issue as to hardship is the one that I think is really weak
in the petition. The hardship we maintain is not unique. We
also maintain it's self-inflicted in two ways. The foliage was
cut down, which you'll see from some of the pictures here prior
to putting in this fence, so that the privacy was minimized in
the process of putting in this noncomplying fence. Furthermore,
prior to the fence going up, petitioner was on notice from the
objectant that the fence was not in compliance and it was
requested that the fence not go up. So that for reasons so
to argue that it is a unique hardship because the privacy is
required but at the same time to acknowledge that much foliage
was taken out in order to put up the fence, and also to acknow-
ledge that I knew I wasn't supposed to put up the fence at 8 ft.
when I put it up because my neighbor spoke to me prior to the
fencing going up--it seems to me the hard~hip spoken of here
is self-inflicted.
As to the character of the district, again I elude to the
letter of January 27th written by Donald Dean. A stockade
fence of the type that these pictures will reflect he argues
and I arg~in turn, certainly more reflective of a nonrural
close quartered environment than it is of the kind of rural
shrubbed environment had existed And for that
reason, I think the character of the district would in fact
be changed by permitting not only a stockade 'fence but a
noncomplying stockade f~nce.
Page 3 - Z.B.A. Hearing Transcript
Appl. No. 3592 - SNELLENBURG
Z.B.A. Regular Meeting - July 17, 1987
P. CARDINALE, ESQ. continued):
Finally, eluding to the appeal, and the arguments asked in
the appeal from the Order to Remedy Violation, there are four
statements made, each of which we disagree with. "A variance it
is maintained is 1½ ft. and is not substantial." Well, it is
a 20% variance that is being sought here. You're being asked
to have permitted an 8 ft. fence in a 6½-ft. zone. That is I
think a substantial variance. The second argument is"that an
additional 1½ ft. of fence height will not c~ange the neighborhood
character." I've indicated and these pictures will show you in
a moment that this fence particularly since with reverse side as
the most unattractive side, to the neighbor, would in fact change
marketly what Mrs. Dean sees outside of her windows. Incidentally,
there is no reason for us to believe there is anything but a
legitimate dispute between neighbors since they had no reason--
no unpleasantness prior to this. The third re-ason advanced is
"that the appellant has no remedy other than to remove her
recreational area." This I think is the weakest of all the
arguments, since I can give the appellant three very readily--
I've argued that it is a self-inflicted hardship. I can give
the appellant three very readily obtainable alternatives of
which could be done to remedy this existing violation.
Number l, since the fence starts at six, unfortunately during
the 72 ft. period it runs along the objectant's line goes to
eight and then comes back to six, you could simply make it a
six ft. fence by simply cutting off two ft. of the offending
portion. Another way to easily remedy the situation would be
move he says his recreational area. There isn't any recreational
area as I understand it. There is no deck if you look at the
survey attached to your petition. There is nothing behind that
house. He could sit on the lawn or the open area on the other
side of the yard. There is no preexisting deck which requires
him to be close to that side and which requires the fence.
The final thing, which occurs to me as I read the statute is,
if he moved his fence in five ft. at the point where he wants
to make it eight ft., it is my reading that you would not
have jurisdiction because it wouldn't be--the statute reads
that any fences along the lines to comply and then it further
states that along the lines could be within five feet of
the line. So if you want to put up an eight ft. fence, it
would seem to me that you would just move in five ft. He
didn't do that. So there are very easy things.that could be
done here to avoid the situation which presently exists which
Page 4 - Z.B.A. Hearing Transcript
Appl. No. 3592 - SNELLENBURG
Z.B.A. Regular Meeting July 17, 1987
P. CARDINALE, ESQ. (continued):
not in compliance with the Code.
Ok, the only other statement that I have in regard to the
issue of basically the character of the area and what this
noncomplying fence does to it, and also for your consideration
the balancing of the equities here as to whether as a practical
matter you're going to insist the Judge Snellenburg make his
fence a six ft. fence throughout r~ther than_six-eight-six, or
whether you're going to let it go and grant this variance.
Obviously this is not the most earth-shattering decision the
world would see this year; however, I think it's a legitimate
issue that you really have to consider carefully whether there
is unique--practical difficulty and hardship are unique to
this situation, and it is very important for this judgment
for the following reasons:
The property -- th~ privacy affording shrubbery was removed
for a portion of this construction. The appellant according
to your letter in your file left the 72 ft. of noncomplying
8 ft. high stockade fence prior to applying for a variance
and states that the evergreens have Dot thrived in that area.
We cannot check this since they are now down. But it appears
now that there are at least 35 vertical trumps with healthy
foliated branches on the appellant's side of the yard which
rises above and immediately along side the 8' ~igh portion
of the fence. There are also another 35 evergreen trees in
the easterly adjoining lot within 15 to 20' of the path
adjacent and parallel to the noncomplying section of the fence.
So what we are saying is the shrubbery certainly to our
view thrived or did well enough for indeed it had to be cut
down in order to put the fence up. The fence that was put up
several points of it pursuant to the survey, which I'll offer
to have you consider for the file once Judge Snellenburg
looks at it and it indicates certainly that the fence post
up to almost a foot encroach on the property of the Dean's.
Secondly, that one of the pictures put over here indicate
that in fact one of the trees on the Dean side was taken
down during the construction. I say this only in the sense
of a context of how this occurred. It occurred in too high,
it occurred without the neighbor's knowledge. She asked how
high is it going to be--she was told it was going to be 8 ft.--
Page 5 Z.B.A. Hearing Transcript
Appl. No. 3592 SNELLENBURG
Z.B~A. Regular Meeting - July 17, 1987
P. CARDINALE (continued):
she indicated an objection--she indicated the reason for the
objection that the house was considerably designed for a
particular view--and the objection was heard--no comment was
made--the fence was put up--and two days later when she
returned on a Friday the fence was completed. My point is
simply that there was notice that this fence would be not
in compliance with the existing statute, so that if there is
a problem here it is a self-inflicted problem.
CHAIRMAN: Thank you.
MR. CARDINALE: Ok. We'll move along quickly. I know this is
your last hearing this evening. The fence as evidence by the
Picture #2 here, in addition to bein9 two feet too higher or
perhaps too high is unsightly. T~at's obvious}y another reason
why we feel we changed the character of the area particularly
our neighbors' are in view of that area, and #2 seeks to
evidence that point.
CHAIRMAN: Can I just address one issue? Is there at any point
an encroachment on the Dean's property by the fence?
MR. CARDINALE: Yes. We contend as per the survey that there
is an encroachment--
CHAIRMAN: Could I just see that survey and I'll give it back.
(Chairman viewed A. Lewandowski survey dated May ll, 1987).
CHAIRMAN: Ok.
MR. CARDINALE: I'll leave that there for the moment and I'll
submit them all, I want to show them to the Judge first. The
context or the arguments that are addressed now or again going
to balancing the equities and the character of the area. The
house as evidenced ~ Photo #3 h6re --we contend and Mrs. Dean
will support this and testify too as necessary, that the rear
view of the house here specifically the window and the kitchen
were specifically angled at some expense by the Architect in
his plans to enjoy an unobstructed view of the water during
the winter periods certainly. If the fence conformed. Now,
Page 6 Z.B.A. Hearing Transcript
Appl. No. 3592 SNELLENBURG
Z.B.A. Regular Meeting - July 17,
1987
MR. CARDINALE (continued):
this is interesting. This is what ( ) of Mrs. Dean's--that if
that they when they built this house, which.was built between
January of 1985 and January of 1986, that they were aware that
there was a 6] ft. fence requirement, and that this view and
this angled window which cost them another $1,000 in their house
would--if the fence was not higher than the 65 ft. before and
the continued view as would the windows in the other downstairs
area of the house--it clearly at this point, is obstructed and
the view is ruined for ~hem. If you b~lieve~ I contend that
they built their house relying on the 6½-st. statute, then I
believe that you must consider that in weighing the equities--
that's Picture #3. The photos that I'll show you as 4A and 4B
are offered to indicate that there is in fact a view from each
of the four windows on the downstairs area that were--are
affected by this fence in that the character of their view and
that the character of the area are affected by what is happening
here. Pictures 5/~and 5A--the filed pictures I'll show you are
offered to show the objectant's deck, that is the deck that Mrs.
Dean has on the rear of her house--is shielded by natural foliage
in consideration of her neighbor's privacy and views and her own,
which works against I think the argument of Judge Snellenburg
that this must be permitted because he has a unique problem that
his recreational area is too close to his neighbors. I pointed
out before that he has no definite specific recreational areas
so he could move his area of sitting and recreatin outside to
the other side of the yard~-which is 100 feet away. But further
point accordingly to M~s. Dean, the distance from her deck to
his is far more than 35 ft. indicated to the area where Snellen-
burg§ are usually in the exterior portion of the yard. And more
importantly, that it is shielded and buffered by natural foliage.
Finally, the self-inflicted, self-imposed hardship scenario
which I tried to put_across to you, I think should weight heavily
in the equities add in the letter of January 27th written by
Mr. Dean, prior to his death~ indicates that he does have a
legitimate interest. And I assume that one of the problems
of the 8 ft. fence is that you're worrying about the da~ger of
maintenance, or wobblyness of safety. He indicates that he
feels that as recently as November of 1986, some several months
after it was put up it was unsafe and that it was wobbly, and
obviously the higher the fence~ the more likely the safety
considerations of that type would be involved. With --I would

MR. CARDINALE (continued):
like to show the pictures I've eluded to and the survey to Judge
Snellenburg and ask that they be considered by you in your deci-
sion. They're numbered 1 through 5. Number One purports to show
again the encroachment that I've spoken of by the survey and the
fact that a tree on the side of the neighbor was in fact taken
down during the construction which he objected to. Number Two is
offered to show the unsightliness of the existing fence, 2 and 2A.
Number 3 to show the unique angles ~f the windows which we contend
were specifically designed by the architect with the 6½ statute
in mind. Number 4, 4A and 4B to show the ground-floor window
views were affected by this fence. And #5 and 5A show the shrub
privacy and foliage surrounding the deck of the objectant and
the fact that the fence is in fact not necessary for the privacy--
certainly not an 8 ft. fence is not necessary for the privacy of
petitioner. So I'll give these to Judge Snell.enburg and I'm sure
he has something to say.
(Judge Snellenburg viewed the pictures to be submitted for the file.)
JUDGE SNELLENBURG: Would you excuse us for a moment, gentlemen?
SECRETARY: How many pictures are being submitted? Are 5 and 5A six?
MR. CARDINALE: (Submitted photos). 1 and lA are two pictures.
2 and 2A are four. 3 is five. 4, 4A and 4B are eight. 5 and 5A
are ten. There are ten pictures listed as five exhibits.
JUDGE SNELLENBURG: I have no objection. I would like to reserve
with respect to the survey because this is the first time I have
seen them. Mr. Cardinale has indicated he will send me a copy.
MR. CARDINALE (to Mrs. Dean): Do we have another copy of this
Ok. We'll get you a copy of this.
JUDGE SNELLENBURG: All right. And subject to my inspection.

survey?
JUDGE SNELLENBURG: Certainly it wasn't our intention to put the
posts on the Dean property~ They were put where existing posts
were when they were installed. Some of them may very well be out --
which case will require that they be removed under all circumstances.

JEAN DEAN: I'm Jean Dean, I live at 180 Teepee Trail. One thing
I find is hard is the fact that ordinances were blatafltlyTdisregarded
as evidenced by the Snellenburgs' refusal to acknowledge the existing
ordinance and continued to put up the fence. It would seem to me
that ordinances are made for people's protection and I feel that
governing bodies have a responsibility to see that ordinances are
carried out--otherwise they~lose their effectiveness. My contention--
the function of our property -- it was my husband's believe that if
the fence was bound at the original height that we are not concerned
about that. Also the fact that the architect spent a lot of time
looking over the property in placing the different windows and on
the ex~sting ordinances they would --the views would not have been
affected. I know that Mr. Snellenburg has no easement rights over
our views except that they were there under existing ordinances.
Thank you.
CHAIRM~N: Judge, is there anything that you would like to add at
this point or shall we recess until the next regular meeting?
JUDGE SNELLENBURG: The only ting I am interested in is the survey
at this point. I don't think-- I would ask you rest on the record.

Re: Appeal No. 3592
Dear Mr. Goehringer:
Your letter of August 5th is at hand.
Ro~erick Van Tuyl, P.C., informs me that they cannot
possibly complete the work requested before October 9,
1987. Accordingly, I must request a recess for that
purpose at least until the Board's October meeting date.
As a matter of information, I am also advised that
they will have difficulty verifying the Lewandoski
calculations since, as Va'n Tuyl reads that survey, the
encroachments are measured varying from one-tenth to
four-tenths of a foot, and the "clear" calculations are
of equally minuscule amounts.

BOARD OF APPEALS
TOWN OF SOUTHOLD
Appeal of
BENTE F. SNELLENBURG
From an Order to Remedy
Violation dated 11/6/86
APPEAL No. 3592
STATEMENT
Appellant, Bente F. Snellenburg, owner of Tax Map Parcel
1000-87-2-21, Appeals an Order to Remedy violation dated 11/6/86
with respect to: "Fence-no building permit" and "Fence exceeding
6 1/2' in height".
Appellant appeals on the ground that no building permit was
required for a replacement fence, and seeks a Variance of the
height allowance of 1 1/2' for a portion of the fence along
Appellant's easterly property line.
(Form ZB1 dated 12/3/86 contains an error in Reason For
Appeal, PP 1; the fence size is 3~2' of 6 '; 72' of 8'; 4~0' of
6') .
I APPEAL
Appellant did not intend to evade the provisions of BZO
§100-141, 1. A permit is required for erection, reconstruction,
restoration or structural alteration of a ~uilding (fence).
Appellant replaced 144' of split rail fence, which has surrounded
her property since the early 1950s, (predecessor deed: Liber 2839
cp 369, 6/1/48; appellant's deed October, 1962) with sections of
stockade fence. A previous section of stockade fence on the
easterly line was destroyed many years ago and was replaced with
split rail fencing.
Appellant does not believe that a permit is required for
replacing fencing, even with fencing of a different type; only
for new construction-erection. However, if the Board determines
that replacement of fencing is within BZO ~100-141, 1, appellant
will apply for a permit in accordance with the Board's directions
II VARIANCE
Appellant seeks a Variance as to fence height, to increase
the permissable height along a portion of her easterly property
line from 6 1/2' to 8'. The reasons for the application and the
unique practical difficulty inherent in the physical outlay are
fully set forth in the Application. The height and location of
the adjoining parcel's deck makes the juxtaposition of the
recreational areas a practical problem with respect to both
parcel's privacy.
a. The variance,
substantial., ~
1 1/2 feet of fence height, is not
b. Additional one and one-half feet of fence height
will not change the neighborhood character.
c. Appellant has no remedy other than to move her
recreational area.
d. Appellant has no desire to bar objectant "water
seasonal bay view" which can be enjoyed from other windows in
objectant's home. However, objectant has no easement of vision,
light or air over appellant's property.

Re: Appeal No. 3592
Dear Mr. Goehringer:
At the July 16, 1987 hearing wherein I appeared on
behalf of my wife, the captioned appeal was continued to
August 20th, for the reasons stated in your letter of
July 20th. I am in receipt of a letter from Philip J.
Cardinale, Esq. dated July 17th, (copy attached), en-
closing the May 11, 1987 survey made for Mrs. Dean by
Anthony Lewandoski, L.L.S..
I have written to Mr. Cardinale, (copy attached),
with respect to verification of the encroachments, and
have requested Roderick Van Tuyl to confirm the encroach-
ment of the replacement posts. It was, of course, never
my wife's intention to encroach on Mrs. Dean's lot,
notwithstanding any possible prior encroachments of split
rail fencing. If the fence does in fact encroach, it will
be forthwith moved upon resolution of the present appeal.
Alternatively, if the offer is still available, my wife
may wish to advantage herself of the proposal contained
in Mr. Carinale's letter.
In light of the foregoing, applicant requests an
adjournment of the August 20th submission date, pending
receipt of the Van Tuyl survey, supra.

Re: Appeal No. 3592
Dear Mr. Cardinale:
Your letter of July 17th, enclosing a copy of the
survey submitted to the Board of Appeals is at hand.
As indicated in my letter to Chairman Goehringer,
my wife is seeking verification of the 5/11/87 survey,
and has requested a continuation of the August 20th date
for Board submissions. She is cognizant of Mrs. Dean's
generous offer, as set forth in your letter, but would
prefer to reserve a determination as again set forth in
the communication to Chairman Goehringer. I will
promptly forward you a copy of the Van Tuyl survey, or
confirmation, when received.
The ultimate paragraph of your letter of July 17th,
creates an inference that I am practicing law, which is
not the case. While I am sure the wording was inadvertent,
I will remind you that Bente Snellenburg is my wife, not
a client.

Please let this confirm our conference telephone
conversation yesterday with Mrs. Donald Dean, in which I
advised that I had been retained by the Deans, who object
to the issuance of the requested variance re the above.
Please also let this confirm our request for an adjournment
on behalf of my clients. The adjournment request is
necessitated by the fact that Mr. Donald Dean has recently

Although his wife and he feel very strongly in regard

Gentlemen:
This is in reference to the petition filed by Bente F. Snellenburg, 1935
Private Road #10, Southold, New York 19971, to the Board of Appeals for relief
from an order mandating a building permit variance as to fence height. Notice
of this intent to appeal the order was sent to me on December 2, 1986.
As the owner of the easterly adjoining lot on whose property line stands
the 8' high, non-compliant fence cited in the "Order to Remedy Violation" dated
November 6, 1986, and as the party directly and adversely affected in this
action, I respectfully offer comments in response to the Reason for Appeal sub-
mitted to the Board by Bente F. Snellenburg on December 3, 1986. I oppose grant-
ing a variance.
With regard to paragraph #1 that strict application of the ordinance
would produce practical difficulties, appellant has described the dimen-
sions of the easterly adjoining lot. Appellant states that the new
dwelling on the lot faces south. Actually, it faces east and away
from appellant's easterly side yard boundary. The site plan and loca-
tion of the new dwelling has met the building ordinances of the Town
of Southold for side and rear yard setback without variance.
Privacy of all adjoining properties was a primary concern during the
clearing of our building site. The extensive natural foliage was pre-
served as much as possible, especially with regard to the stands of
evergreen trees and shrubs in the side and rear yard areas adjoining
appellant's parcel.
One special factor in locating the new dwelling was the unique placement
of windows along the rear of the house so as to capture winter seasonal
bay views. This view has been blocked by the height of appellant's
non-compliant fence.
I submit that appellant has not demonstrated that there are practical
difficulties to suggest granting a variance as to a maximum fence height
of 6~'.

Board of Appeals -2- January 26, 1987
With regard to appellant's description of a unique hardship created
and not shared by all properties alike in the immediate vicinity, there
are three adjoining properties to the east of appellant and the one
to the north which are a nominal half acre each in area. Two of these
have a width of about 120' or less. This is the same approximate width
as appellant's property and is not unique to the immediate vicinity.
Appellant compares the density of the evergreens in her front and back
yards and states that the evergreens have not thrived in the rear yard.
Appellant has already removed or trimmed the pre-existing foliage and
installed 72' of a non-compliant 8' high stockade fence prior to apply-
ing for a variance, so her statement cannot be confirmed. There are
now at least 35 vertical trunks with healthy foliated branches in appel-
lant's side yard which rise above and immediately alongside of the
8' high portions of the fence and which are visible from the adjoin-
ing easterly lot. There are also another 35 evergreen trees in the
easterly adjoining lot within a 15-20' path adjacent and parallel to
the non-compliant sections of the fence. Additionally, there are
several hardwood trees and evergreen shrubs, including azaleas and
rhododendron, in the same area. Appellant has not presented reasons
for unique hardship or unusual loss of privacy here. If appellant
has created a unique hardship by removal of some of the pre-existing
foliage, current ordinances are adequate to resolve the privacy issues
without granting a variance to exceed the maximum fence height.
With regard to Reason for Appeal, paragraph 3, that the variance would
observe the spirit of the ordinance and would not change the character
of the district, appellant states that the replacement fence is not
visible from public highways. If such a reason has merit in this
matter, the lack of visibility suggests that no variance with regard
to fence height should be granted. The current ordinance assures the
additional privacy sought by appellant. No extenuating infringement
on privacy exists due to visibility from a public highway.
Additionally, I suggest that the rural character of the area has been
significantly changed by erecting the non-compliant fence. The pre-
existing fence sections were of the open post and rail type, approx-
imately 4' high or less and surrounded with natural shrubs and plant-
ings. Appellant has now erected 72 linear feet of an 8' high stockade
fence more characteristic of a close urban environment. Appellant
removed the natural foliage within the adjoining lot to ease the instal-
lation of the fence and changed the character of the adjoining lot.
Continued...
Board of Appeals -3- January 26, 1987
With regard to Reason for Appeal, paragraph #4, the interpretation
of the ordinance requiring a building permit is beyond my ability to
comment. In my opinion, the intent of the ordinance and a building
permit should be to protect all interested parties and to assure that
a safe and compliant fence has been installed. In the case of a re-
placement fence, there should be some assurance that the replacement
is not substantially different from the original. This is not so in
this case.
Additionally, with regard to safety, one of the 8' high fence sections
already tilts substantially from the vertical and appears to be propped
up only by appellant's foliage. This occurred in late October/early
November, 1986. As of January 18, 1987, the condition was not cor-
rected. This time delay suggests that appellant does not intend to
maintain the fence, or has not seen the problem because of the density
of the foliage supporting it. In any event, I am concerned about the
safety of an 8' high stockade fence.
In conclusion, I submit that the Reasons for Appeal offered by appellant
do not demonstrate that the elements necessary to consider granting a variance
as to fence height actually exist.
Thank you for your attention to this matter. I respectfully request that
you consider my reasons for opposing granting the variance.
Very truly yours,
Donald E. Dean

Re: Appeal No. 3592
Dear Mr. Goehringer:
Your letter of August 5th is at head.
Roderick Van Tuyl, P.C., informs me that they cannot
possibly complete the work requested before October 9,
1987. Accordingly, I must request a recess for that
purpose at least until the Board's October meeting date.
As a matter of informatiou, i am also advised that
they will have difficulty, verifying the Lewandoski

four-tenths of a foot, and the "clear" calculations are
of equally minuscule amount:~.
