Matter of HERBERT R. MANDEL
Decision Rendered March 5, 1987
ft.; (c) for proposed Lot #3 of 45,000 sq. ft.; (d) Lots 1,
and 3 having insufficient lot depth of 220.87, 140, and 140,
respectively; (e) insufficient setback of existing building
on proposed Lot 3; (f) existing barn structure on each Lot 2
and Lot 3 which have insufficient frontyard setbacks; (g)
existing structures on Lots 2 and 3 which do not meet the
principal-use requirement of a single-family dwelling.
3. Existing upon the premises are the following structures:
(a) two-story, single-family wood framed dwelling set back
56± feet from the front property line along the Main Road; (b)
24' by 24' accessory garage building; (c) 40' by 46' accessory
barn; (d) 18±' by 27±' accessory barn, all as more particularly
shown on subdivision sketch plan mapped January 29, 1986 by
Young & Young, L.S. It is noted that Certificate of Occupancy
No. Z14702 was issued July 24, 1986 concerning this 2.918-acre
parcel and buildings.
4. It is noted for the record that a photocopy of approval
from the Suffolk County Department of Health Services dated
December 4, 1986 and letter dated March 4, 1986 from the South-
old Town Planning Board were submitted and considered.
5. The Bulk Schedule of the Zoning Code requires a minimum
lot area of 80,000 sq. ft., 250 ft. lot depth, and 175 ft. lot
width (frontage), and minimum frontyard setbacks at 60 feet for
principal buildings.
6. The percentage of relief requested from the lot area
requirements is not less than 45%. It is the opinion of the
board that the relief requested is not the minimal necessary
meeting only approximately 55% of the requirements, and is
self-created. A plan could be submitted under the circumstances
for insufficient area of two parcels, as an alternative for
consideration.
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 zoning
requirements, being a variance of at least 45% for this proposal
of three lots; (c) the difficulties claimed are self-created;
(d) the lot area requirements have been in effect prior to the
conveyance in title of this property to the applicant; (e)
there is another method feasible for appellant to pursue for
minimal relief; (f) in view of the manner in which the diffi-
culties arose and in considering all the above factors, the
interests of justice will be served by denying the variance,
as applied.
Accordingly, on motion by Mr. Goehringer, seconded by
Mr. Grigonis, it was
RESOLVED, to DENY the relief requested under Appeal No.
3462 in the Matter of the Application of HERBERT R. MANDEL in
its entirety.
Vote of the Board: Ayes: Messrs. Goehringer, Grigonis,
Doyen and Douglass. (Member Sawicki was absent.) This
resolution was duly adopted.

as set forth in Notice
~rm ~.]~t (Continue on other side)
REASON FOR APPEAL
Continued
1. STRICT APPLICATION OF THE ORDINANCE would produce pr~ticaldifficultiesorunn~es-
sa~.HARDSHIPb~au~
(a) Insufficient area: The lots all equal or exceed 40,000
sauare feet, in keeping with the lots in Sections One & Two of this
subdivision which have already been approved and filed~ Section
Three was not filed prior to the two-acre zoning only because applicant
could not lay out the lots until a gift of property to the East Marion
Fire District was accepted and completed. If required to comply with
zoning, applicant would be entitled to only one lot, which would be
a financial hardship asit would be awkwardly shaped and out of keeping
with the neighborhood°
(b) Insufficient depth: All.lots have at least 185 feet of depth
which is more than adequate for a single family residence.
(c) Insufficient width: Lot 3 is L-shaped of necessity due to
the shape of the entire parcel. It has sufficient width for ~wD-thirds
of the parcel.
(d) Accessory buildings: In order to provide at least 40,000 square
feet per lot, the lot lines have to be drawn so as to create insufficient
set-back for the two barns. No plans have as yet been made for these
~ tr~i~ cbUret~t~e~ ~Q~ ~n°~s~oh~P~§rea~°pbt~c~e~k~ ~h~ °i~ sht hem~
vicinity ofthis propedy and in this u~ district because this is the third and final
section of a major subdivision which was cadenced months prior to
the upzoning.
3. The Variance would obsewe the spirit of the O~inance and WOULD NOT CHANGE THE
CHARACTER OF THE DISTRICT because all lots are as big or larger than the
surrounding lots in the neighborhood. They conform to the proposals
as to ares and width in the Master Plan. There is a bungalow colony
to the East of the property and business district to the West,
neither of which will be adversely affected by the proposal.
