2. The subject premises is improved with a single-family,
one-story dwelling having a total liveable floor area of 928±
sq. ft. and located as shown on map amended May 7, 1987 prepared
by Roderick VanTuyl, P.C. (#2041-2). The dwelling is shown to
be set back 40 feet from the front property line along Bayview
Road, 63 feet from the front property line along Cedar Lane,
20 feet from the westerly property line, and 130± feet from
the most northerly property line.
3. By this application, appellants request a Variance
from the Provisions of Article III, Section 100-31, Bulk
Schedule, of the Zoning Code, for approval of the proposed
insufficient area, width and depth of two lots in this
set-off division of land, as follows: (a) Parcel A to be
13,046 sq. ft. with frontage of 100 feet along Cedar Lane
and lot depth of 143.21 feet; (b) Parcel B of 17,182 sq. ft.
with frontage of 117.02 feet along Cedar Lane and lot depth
of 143.21 feet. Parcel B would contain the existing dwelling.
4. After research and investigation, the following
facts have been confirmed:
(a) the parcel adjoining the subject premises at
the north side consists of an area of 1.2± acres and is iden-
tified on the Suffolk County Tax Maps as Section 78, Block 7,
Lot 42. There is an appeal pending at this time for variances
to divide the 1.2± acres into two substandard lots. No action
has been taken as of this date by this Board.
(b) the parcel adjoining the subject premises on
the west side consists of an area of one acre and is identified
on the Suffolk County Tax Maps as Section 78, Block 7, Lot 43.
There is an appeal pending at this time for variances to divide
this one-acre parcel into two substandard lots. No action has
been taken by this Board as of the date of rendering this
decision.
(c) the second parcel to the north of the subject
premises contains an area of 26,500+ sq. ft. in area,
(d) the third parcel to the north of the subject
premises contains an area of 30,475+ sq. ft. in area;
(e) the fourth parcel to the north of the subject
premises consists of an area of 39,750 sq. ft. [Lots 38 and 39

(f) the lots proposed by this application are sub-
less than those generally existing within the same
(g) the lot under
an area of 30,228 sq. ft. is

question which presently contains
not out of character of the
block.
5. It is also noted for the record that:
(a) on January 31, 1956, the subject parcel was
conveyed to James and Marie Grant [see Deed at Liber 4059 pages
101 and 102];
Page 3 - Appl. No. 3657
Matter of CLYDE FRITZ
Decision Rendered November
18, 1987
(b) on March 17, 1965, a portion of the subject
premises [then referred to as Lot #44) was conveyed from James
and Marie Grant to the sole name of James Grant [see Deed at
Liber 5717 cp 97;
(c) at the inception of the minimum 40,000 sq. ft.
lot-size requirement in November of 1971, Lot #44 remained in
the sole name of James Grant, and the remaining portion [then
Lot #45] remained in joint ownership between James and Marie
Grant];
(d) during May of 1983, the Town increased the lot-
size requirements under zoning from 40,000 sq. ft. to 80,000
sq. ft.;
(e) Mr. Grant's date of death was recorded to be
February 27, 1984~
(f) the Will of Mr. Grant conveyed Lot #44 [from
James Grant] to Marie Grant;
(g) Lots #44 and #45 remained in the sole name of
Marie Grant from February 27, 1984 until December ll, 1985,
at which time both Lots #44 and #45 were conveyed in one deed
to Clyde and Joyce Fritz, at Liber 9942 page 460.
(i)
and the merger

no other conveyances were found of record

6. Article III, Section lO0-31, Bulk Schedule of the
Zoning Code requires a minimum lot area of 80,000 sq. ft.,
minimum lot width of 175 feet, and minimum lot depth of
250 feet.
7. The amount of relief requested for Lot A as to
insufficient lot area is 66,954 sq. ft. or a percentage
of 84%. The amount of relief requested for Lot B as to
insufficient lot area is 62,818 sq. ft. or a percentage
of 78.5%. The amount of relief requested as to lot width
for each parcel is 32 feet, or 18 percent.
8. It is the opinion of the Board that the percentages
of relief requested are substantial in relation to the zoning
requirements and the granting of the variances requested will
not be within the character of the lots within the immediate
block.
9. In considering this application, the Board also
finds and determines that: (a) the difficulties claimed are
not sufficient to warrant a granting of the relief requested$
(b) the percentage of relief requested is substantial in
relation to the requirements and in relation to the area;
(c) the difficulties claimed are self-created and are not
sufficient for the grant of this variance; (d) the lot as
exists with a total area of .686 acre(s) is already substan-
tially less than the current area requirements; (e) the
variance, if granted, will in turn cause a substantial effect
on the safety, health, welfare, comfort, convenience and

REASON FOR APPEAL Continued
1. STRICT APPLICATION OF THE ORDINANCE would produce practical dif~icu, ties 0r~ umneces-
sory HARDSH P because
Applicants would be unable to restore the proper~y ct±v±s±on ~fbich
e×±$ted prior to February 2?, 1984.
2. ThehardshiDcrea~dis UNIQUE ond isnotshared by all properties ali~ in the immolate
vicinity ofthis property and in this use district because
The subject property consisted of two single and separate building
lots from March 17, 1965 until February 27, 19~4, when upon the death
of the prior owne~, James L. Grant, title to the~e properties 'fe~l to
his surviving spouse, Marie Grant, and merged under single ownership.
The property was thereafter conveyed by Marie Grant to her
granddaughter, Joyce Fritz, and her granddaughter's husband, Clyde W.
Fritz, by deed dated December 1t, 1985. Mrs. Grant believed, that she
had conveyed two separate lots ~o Mr. and Mrs. Fritz.
3 The Variance would observe the spirit ofthe Ordinance and WOULD NOT CHANGE TH[
CHARACTER OF THE DISTRICT b~ause
It was never the intention, or spirit, of the current two-acre zoning
ordinance to penalize property owners, or their relatives, in the
event of merger created as the result of death. The character of the
district would be unaffected by the reestablishment of the pre,2~27~84
status of this proper~y.

Re: H.S. Ref. No. 87 S0-124, Clyde W. and Joyce Fritz
SCTM 1000-78-7-45.1
Dear Mr. Bruer:
The Department of Health Services has recently issued a permit to construct a
sanitary disposal system and drinking water supply well on a portion of the
above lot. This portion was designated on the 1981 Suffolk County Tax Map as
1000-78-7-44.
In processing this application, the Department declared the subject lot as
exempt from the requirements of Article 6 of the Suffolk County Sanitary Code
pursuant to SectiOn 609.2.d., which states in part that requirements of
Article 6 do not apply to "density requirements for one-family residences on
parcels which appeared as separately assessed on the Suffolk County Tax Map
as of January 1, 1981, which presently constitutes a buildable parcel under
municipal zoning ordinances .... -.
The Town of Southold Planning Board has recently informed this Department that
the latter condition has not been met in that a ZBA case (#3657) is pending.
This condition invalidates your health permit until such time as your client
satisfies the ZBA. If conditions set forth by the ZBA affect placement-of
the well and sanitary system, then an amended permit will be required. Other-
wise, the permit can be reinstate~ simply by submitting documentation that the
zoning variance was granted.

Re: Application of "Clyde W. and Joyce Fritz"
(#3657), Town of Southold (SD-87-33).
Dear Mr. Goehringer:
Pursuant to the requirements of Sections A 14-14 to 23 of the Suffolk
County Administrative Code, the Suffolk County Planning Commission on
January 13, 1988, reviewed the above captioned application and after due study
and deliberation Resolved to disapprove it because of the following reasons:
It would only tend to undermine the effectivsness of the zoning
ordinance;
It is generally inconsistent with the prevailing lot size pattern within
the same block;
It would tend to establish a precedent for the continuance of such
undersized lots in the locale; and
There appears to be no demonstrable grounds of practical difficulty or
unnecessary hardship at the site.
Very truly yours,
Lee E. Koppelman

The Chairman opened the hearing at 8:05 o'clock p.m. alld
read the notice of hearing and application for the record.
CHAIRMAN GOEHRINGER: I have a copy of a survey produced by Roderick
VanTuyl, P.C.~,' dated December 6,'4985 indicating the house lot which
is lot B-17 182 square feet and parcel A at 13,046 square feet on
the corner of Bayview Road and Cedar Lane. And I ]lave a copy of the
Suffolk County Tax Map indicating this and surrounding properties in
the area. Is there somebody who would like to be heard on behalf of
this application? Mrs. Moore.
MRS. MOORE: I have a copy of information, some of which will be
repetative from the file but I present it to you right now so that
you have everything in front of you as a packet. Mr. and Mrs. Fritz
have applied for a setoff of a lot which was previously divided but
has since merged. The property was originally owned by Mrs. Fritz's
grandmother, grandparents; James L. Grant and Marie Grant. In 1956
Mr. and Mrs. Grant purchased the entire property with the two lots
from John and Marianne O'Brian. You'll see that as exhibit "A" in
the packet. In 1965, Mr. and Mrs. Grant, the applicant's grand-
parents, decided to divide the property into two lots. Southold
Town, at the time, had quarter acre zoning. Therefore, the two
quarter acre.lots were created. That is, you'll see in exhibit "B"
a survey of the tWo lots and the lightly marked line between the
two. For the division of the two lots, Mr. and Mrs. Grant conveyed
one of the newly setoff lots to Mr. Grant and you'll see that as
exhibit "B-2". That sends the deed from the husband and wife to
the husband. Unfortunately, in 1984 James Grant died leaving all
his property to his wife. And the properties passed from Mr. Grant,
through the terms of his will, to Mrs. Grant. You'll also see as
exhibit "C", is a copy of Mr.. Grant's estate records what was sent
to the tax commission. That shows two separate descriptions or liber

MRS. MOORE (continued):
and pages of the two deeds and it was intended to show that these
were two separate lots. Then in 1985, Mrs. Grant decided to con-
vey her lots to her grand-daughter and her husband. This way,
the inter-family transfer, this was, and continued to be an inter-
family transfer. Mrs. Grant believed that she conveyed the two
separate lots and that she had ~.etained them in separate owner-
ship. You'll see as exhibit "E", the separate bill. Mrs. Grant
continued to receive separate tax bills on the separate lots.
And Mr. and Mrs. Fritz as well, received a separate tax bill.
So as~far as the Assessor's Office or to a layman looking at the
paperwork, it would appear that the lots remained as separate
units. The facts in this case would create undue hardship and
practical difficulty. The family, Mr. Grant in particular, took
great pains to separate the lot and keep them separate. The mer-
ger occurring at his death by way of the will. The character of
the neighborhood would not be effected. The recreation of the
two lots would have no change of appearance to the neighborhood.
The surrounding areas, if you notice the tax map~which is also
part of that packet, shows the two lots as separate tax map num-
bers. So that, the town in a quick review of the record, would
see that these lots are (again) single and separate. So taking
all the facts together, these two lots would have always intended
to remain separate but not for the unfortunate death. We also
have also received a Health Department approval for the resepara-
tion of the l~ts. The surrounding community consists of quarter
acre lots. And the Health Department, I believe, has received
other applications of similiar nature from surrounding property
and they have denied those or some of the applications are pend-
ing. However, this application was approved and the Health De-
partment did recognize these two lots as being subdivided prior
to the enactment of Article VI. So in light of everything you
have before you, we would request that you grant this setoff and
we thank you.
CHAIR~IAN GOEHRINGER: Just before you leave. Was there any in-
dication that there was any Planning Board authority to divide
the lots in the manner in which they divided in 19557
MRS. MOORE: I'm not sure if the Planning Board was around at
the time?
MR. : I have some personal knowledge of that. I know
(TAPE ENDED) The practice at that time; the division of property,
the ordinance was not particularly as clear as it is today with
respect to divisions of property and it was very common to take a
piece of property and cut out something on a one unique situation.
Like for instance; typical of a farm. You'd cut out a piece and
you give it to your son or your daughter and they'd live in it.
It was an occasional division.

SCTM# 1000-78-7-45.1
(ZBA Appeals Case #3657)
Dear Mr._Bruer:
This is to acknowledge receipt of the above referenced
application.
In your letter of July 28, 198%, you indicate that these
lots were merged in February of 1984. Our records further reveal
that the property was sold to the Fritzes in 1985 as one lot
under one deed.
However, the survey that was submitted to the Suffolk
County Health Department for their review and which was mapped
on May 7, 1987, refers to one of the former lots (Section 78,
Block 7, Iot 44), instead of the merged lot (Section 78, Block
7, Lot 45.1); which had been merged in 1985~ prior to the date
of application to the Health Department.
It appears that the property represented to and approved
by the Health Department (H.S. Ref. No. 87-50-124) is not the
property as it exists in deed. The deed referenced on the
survey given to the Health Department (L. 5717 P. 97) does not
appear to be the same deed that has been on file with the
County CLerk's Office since 1985(L.9942 p. 0460).
