Matter of KATHLEEN VARANO
Decision Rendered April 16,
1 986
WHEREAS, the board members have personally viewed and are
familiar with the premises in question, as well as the surrounding
area in this Residential and Agricultural Zoning District; and
WHEREAS, after due notice, a public hearing was held by the
Board of Appeals on the Interpretation Request (a), supra, and
concluded on March 13, 1986 at the Southold Town Hall, Main Road,
Southold, New York; and
WHEREAS, at said hearing all those who desired to be heard
were heard and their testimony recorded; and
WHEREAS,
carefully consi
WHEREAS,
all testimony and written documentation have been
dered; and
the board made the following findings of fact:
1. The premises in question is located in the "A-80" Resi-
dential and Agricultural Zoning District;
2. Article III, Sections 100-30 and lO0-31, Bulk Schedule,
of the Zoning Code, permit one-family detached dwellings, not to
exceed one dwelling on each lot, and does not permit sleeping or
living quarters in an accessory structure in this zoning district;
2. Article III, Section lO0-31, Bulk Schedule, requires a
minimum of 80,000 sq. ft. for a lot, and a Variance was granted
under Appeal No. 3330 concerning the subject premises from the
lot area requirement to allow 76,300 sq. ft. for Lot #3 in this
pending minor subdivision proposal.
4. Existing upon the subject premises is a single-family
frame house, and the subject accessory structure which is depicted
as "§arage-ap't" on survey amended September 6, 1984;
5. In paragraph numbered "7~ of the board's decision and
findings rendered May 2, 1985 under Appeal No. 3330 of which this
interpretation is made, it was noted that "...it is the understanding
of the board that the property has always been used for single-family
purposes and therefore does not recognize the accessory structure
as a "garage-apartment."
6. It is the position of this board that the since the
use of the subject accessory building (depicted "garage/apartment")
was questionable by the Board of Appeals during 1985 when they
rendered a decision under Appeal No. 3330, the subject accessory
building as an apartment or sleeping quarters use may not have
been legally established and continuously used as such from prior
to the enactment of zoning in 1957 up until the time of the
board's decision, and therefore requires additional relief by
the Board of Appeals or consideration by formal application,
public hearing, et cetera.
NOW, THEREFORE, on motion by Mr. Grigonis, seconded by
Mr. Goehringer, it was
RESOLVED, that it is hereby determined that the December
1985 letter of the Building Inspector is correct and that the
May 2, 1985 Condition Rendered in the Decision under Appeal
No. 3330 shall be interpreted as not allowing any sleeping or

living quarters in any accessory building, existing or
proposed.
Vote of the Board: Ayes: Messrs. Goehringer, Grigonis
and Doyen. (Members Sawicki and Douglass were absent.) This
resolution was duly adopted.

1. STRICT APPLICATION OF THE ORDINANCE would.3roducepracticaldifficuitiesarunneces-

Varano~ died on October 28, 1985. At the time of his death~ ~y
late husband was in the process of oDtaznzng a mlnor suDdlvzsxon
approval for property on the southerly side of Zndi~n Neck Roads

2. The hardshi~ createdis UNIQUE and is notshared by aH properties alike in the [mmediace
v~cinitv ofthJs property and in this use district because the Building Znspector~s
interpretation of the Board of Appeals decision is ~nreason~ble,
due to the fact the previous owners o~ the property always uti-
lized the garage/apartment as an accessory guest house in con-
junction with the main dwelling on the premises~ and to deny its
use creates a unique hardship for petitioner and her famiiy.
3 The Variance would observe the spirit of the Ordinance and WOULD NOT CHANGE THE
CHARACTER OF THE DISTRICT because the proposed use of Lot 93 as well as
the other two proposed vacant lots on the property are residen-
tial~ as this property has always been utilized for this purpose°
The three building lots for single f~ily use are in keeping eot
only with the spirit of the Ordinance~ but with the charactsr of
this District.
