CHAIRMAN, SOUTHOLD TOWN ZONING BOARD
OF APPEALS
Page 2 - Appeal No. 3546
Matter of GREGORY FOLLARI
Decision Rendered June 18,
1987
3. The subject premises has previously been vacant and
is presently improved with a single-family dwelling, constructed
under Building Permit #15255Z issued September 10, 1986, and
pending at this time.
4. The subject premises consists of a total area of
32,007 sq. ft., lot width of 100 feet, and lot depth of 322.7±
feet. The shortest distance from the southerly property line
along Sound Drive to the top of the bank/bluff area, as
scaled on the April 1, 1981 survey prepared by Roderick Van-
Tuyl, P.C. is shown to be 195± feet.
5. By prior action of this Board, appellant was granted
permission to locate a new single-family dwelling with a
setback at its closest point from the edge of the top of the
bluff/bank at 65 feet. Article XI, Section 100-119.2,
subparagraph A(1) requires all buildings proposed on lots
adjacent to the Long Island Sound to be set back not less
than one-hundred (100) feet from the top of the bluff or bank.
6. Condition #2 of the Board's prior action stipulated
as follows:
"...2. There shall be no disturbance of land area
within 50 feet of the top of bank, except for maintenance
of vegetation, shrubs, etc .... "
7. In the application, it is stated that without
permission to regrade this area, the property would be nearly
worthless as waterfront property. No evidence has been
submitted as required by the Courts to support this
claim.
8. It is the position of this Board that it is the
intent of Article XI, Section 100-119.2, subparagraph A(1)
of the Zoning Code to prohibit any and all construction
within 100 feet of the bluff; and that the relief condi-
tionally granted under the prior Appeal, No. 3502, is
an alternative to that initially applied for. Such condi-
tions must be adhered to. Construction commenced and has
and continued without consideration of possible alternatives
for the dwelling construction during the process of this
pending application. Removal of an eight-foot high berm
in an area 50 feet deep by 100 feet is extensive, and the
existence of this berm area was relief upon in granting
the prior variance.
9~ It is the position of this Board not to allow
alterations of this bluff area to remove an eight-foot (dirt)
berm of an area 100 feet wide by 50 feet deep for waterview
purposes, as applied herein.
In considering this appeal, the Board also finds and
determines:
(a) the relief requested is not the minimal necessary;
(b) the difficulties claimed are not sufficient to
warrant the relief as requested;
Page 3 Appeal No. 3546
Matter of GREGORY FOLL.~RI
Decision Rendered June 18,
1987
(c) the information submitted is not sufficient to
support a granting of this application;
(d) the circumstances are unique;
(e) to grant the relief as applied is not within the
spirit or intent of the zoning ordinance;
(f) there are alternatives available other than a
variance;
(g) in view of the manner in which the difficulties
arose and in view of all the above factors, the interests
of justice will be served by denying the application, as
applied.
Accordingly, on motion by Mr. Douglass, seconded by
Mr. Grigonis, it was
RESOLVED, to DENY
No. 3546 in the Matter
FOLLARI, as applied.
the relief requested under Appeal
of the Applications of GREGORY
Vote of the Board: Ayes: Messrs. Goehringer, Grigonis,
Doyen, Douglass and Sawicki. This resolution was unanimously
adopted.
