ZONING BOARD OF APPEALS
Appellant by this appeal seeks permission to alter and
increase the size at the northerly end of the one-story existing
garage/guest cottage for one-family dwelling use. Also existing
on the premises since prior to the zoning code is a one-family,
one-story frame dwelling with garage. The premises in question
contains an area of approximately 5.45 acres and together with
premises to the north also owned by appellant contains a total
acreage of approximately 10.3. Appellant wants to retain the
entire parcel for a one-family use using the existing garage/
guest cottage with proposed addition for use by house guests
and visitors in this neighborhood. The Board agrees with the
reasoning of appellant.
In considering this appeal, the Board determines that the
variance request in relation to the code requirements is not
substantial; that the circumstances herein are unique and prac-
tical difficulty has been shown; that the relief if granted will
not change the character of the neighborhood; that if the relief
is granted no adverse effects will be produced on available
governmental facilities of any increased population; and that
the interests of justice will be served by allowing the variance
subject to the conditions specified below.
On motion by Mr. Grigonis, seconded by Mr. Goehringer, it
was
RESOLVED, that a variance to the zoning ordinance,
Appeal No. 2864, application of Gladys G. Bayles, for permission
to. alter-and i~Crease the size of the existing one-story
garage/guest cottage for family and guest use be granted,
SUBJECT TO THE FOLLOWING CONDITIONS:
1. That the garage/guest cottage structure be used
only for family and guest use;
2. That the garage/guest cottage structure may never be
rented;
3. That no other dwellings be permitted on the 5.45-acre

RE: Alison Byers (Gladys G. Bayles, File#2864)
Nassau Point Road, Cutchogue
SCTM No. 1000-119-1-14.1 & 14.2
Dear Mr. Finnegan;
The Zoning Board of Appeals has received your various correspondence requesting the
Zoning Board of Appeals to confirm that the above referenced residential parcels are legal
single and separate lots based upon the belief that the 1981 ZBA decision cited above
recognized them as such.
Essentially, you are asking for an interpretation of a prior decision of the ZBA.
Unfortunately, your request is outside the powers and duties of the ZBA. Pursuant 280-
146 (D) of the Town Code,the ZBA may provide an interpretation"on appeal from an
order, decision or determination of an administrative officer or on request of any Town
officer, board or agency ... ." Your request for an interpretation is neither; 1) made as part
of an appeal from an order, decision or determination, or; 2) made by Town officer, board
or agency and therefore your request is outside the jurisdiction of the ZBA.
By way of example, in order for the matter to properly come before the ZBA,you could
apply for a building permit or to subdivide the lots. In reviewing your application,the
reviewing agency could then: 1) render a determination that the lots in question are single
and separate, eliminating the need for an interpretation from this Board; 2) issue a Notice
of Disapproval stating the lots are not single or separate, which would allow you to appeal
to the ZBA and request the aforementioned interpretation, or; 3) the reviewing agency
could request an interpretation from the ZBA of its prior decision in order to aid the
reviewing agency in making its determination on your application.

REASON FOR APPEAL
0 0
Continued
1. STRICT APPLICATION OF THE ORDINANCE would produce practical difficulties or unneces-
sary HARDSHIP because Petitioner is ~l~e owner of a parcel of land triangular in shape
located on the southerly tip of Nassau Point, Cutchogue, New York, which parcel contains
5.45 acres. The parcel itself is bounded on the east, south and west by Peconic Bay and
on the north by' other land of Bayles. Northerly of the other lands of. Bayles is land of
Conrad Ahrens (Lot 83A) and Jane W. Cooke (Lot 82B) all as shown on the attached map of
land surveyed for Gladys Grinnell Bayles by Otto W. Van Tuyl dated November 5, 1953,
which is attached hereto as Exhibit A. Located on this parcel of land is a large one
story frame house and a two car garage with guest room facilities. Both of these build-
ings were constrUcted in 1936. Petitioner is desirous of updating the garage and guest
building by modernizing same and placing on the northerly end an addition. The renova-
tion and addition encompasses enlarging the existing bathroom.and converting the existing
garage into a living area with a kitchen, foyer and utility room. The additi°n will also
contain a large 2 car garage. When completed the existing garage and guest room will be
converted into an attractive one-story structure and will become a separate dwelling
under the Southold Town Zoning Ordinance. (See attached plan of Flower Hill Building
Corporation dated June 30, 1981 consisting of 5 sheets attached hereto as Exhibit B.)
Due to the shape and location of Petitioner's property as well as its topography
there is no practical way to reasonably create a subdivision, of this 5.45 acre parcel.
Further, Petitioner wants to retain the entire parcel for a one family use utilizing
the garage and the expanded guest facilities for use by house guests and visiting
(continued on Rider attached hereto under ~1)
2. The hardship created is UNIQUE and is not shared by all properties alike in the immediate
vicinity of this property and in this use district because Petitioner has a large parcel of land
in this particular neighborhood. Most of the parcels on Nassau Point are considerably
smaller than Petitioner's property due to the fact the way the subdivision was laid out an
established for a long period of time prior to the enactment of the Zoning Ordince of
the Town of Southold. Considering the area requirements of the zoning Ordinance and the
fact the Petitioner's parcel is over five times the size of the zoning requirements for
a single family house, if the Board grants the variance and allows the addition to create
another dwelling on this property it will have two residences on a 5.45 parcel of land,
which ~.ar exceeds the current zoning requirements for area.
3. The Variance would observe the spirit of the Ordinance and WOULD NOT CHANGE THE
CHARACTER OF THE DISTRICT because the Nassau Point subdivisionis strictly residential
and will so with the addition to Petitioner's garage guest house. Due to the remoteness
of the parcel it will in no way effect any of the neighboring properties to the north
and the spirit of the ordinance for this particular neighborhood will be preserved.

' APPEAL FROM THE DECISION OF THE BUILDING INSPECTOR
· TO THE ZONING BOARD OF APPEALS, TOWN OF SOUTHOLD, N.Y.
BY GLADYS G. BAYLES, - FLOWER HILL BUILDING CORPORATION AS AGENT
REASON FOR THE APPEAL:
continued:
grandchildren. However a variance will be required in order to have two dwellings
on this 5.45 acre parcel of land.
If the Board grants the Petitioner's variance request there will be no substantial
variation from the zoning requirement of 40,000 square feet per dwelling unit. In
fact there will be two dwellings on 5.45 acres instead of 80,000 square feet. The
proposed addition will not change the population density for this particular parcel
of land. The utilization of the buildings will remain the same. They will only be
increased in size. The existing well and cesspool will continue to serve both the
main house and the guest house. The neighborhood is residential and the requested
variance will not cause any change in this character of the neighborhood. The
addition to the garage guest house on Petitioner's property will not in any way
cause any detriment to the adjoining properties. In fact the addition will not even
be seen from adjoining properties due to the isolation of Petitioner's property.
Considering the b~i~ihgs'~a~e b~en~i~exis~en~e'~si~C~ ~i936 and the fact the Petitioner
merely wants to add an addition to what is now the accessory structure thereby making
an independent dwelling, the interests of justice will be served by the Board granting
the variance particularly since the creation of a subdivision of this parcel is
impractical and the essential use of the land remains the same.

The Chairman Opened 'the hearing at approximately 8.35
p.m. and read the legal notice of hearing in its entirety
and appeal application.
MR. CHAIRMAN:
Mr. Lark?
Is there anything you would'~ike to add,
RICHARD F. LARK, ESQ.: Yes, good evening. On behalf
of my client, we're here because the building inspector denied
the application of the petitioner in modernizing-expanding-the
board is aware in viewing, the property, the existing guest
cottage/garage facility,.because it contains a kitchen area.
If it didn't contain a kitchen area, which it does, we woUldn't
be here because it wOuld still be.construed as an accessory
use. But since it has both the kitchen and bathroom facilities
as well as a building area, it's under the zoning ordinance,
the building inspector has interpreted as it as a separate
dwelling unit, even though the use would continue the same.
Therefore, the board will have to look at and make findings
as to whether a strict application of the ordinance will re-
sult in practiCal difficulties. As you are aware the courts
have defined just what practical difficulties are and in mak-
ing the determination the board will have to consider how
substantial the varianc~ is in relation with the require-
ments of the zoning ordinance, the effect if the variance is
allowed on the increased population density which wOuld
produce on the available governmental facilities,.whether
substantial change will. be produced on the character of the
neighborhood or substantial detriment to adjoining properties
and whether the difficulties can be obviated by some other
method other than a variance, and whether in view of the
manner in which the difficulty arose and a consideration of
all the factors, the interests of justice will be served by
granting the variance.
I want to say at the outset that when the applicant
brought this problem to me after conferring with the build-
ing inspector, I concurred with the building inspector and
also the Chairman of the Planning Board, because it seemed
to me at the outset, since we have 5.45 acres and where the
property was,~ a minor subdivision can be. created where we
could have two lots, so one where the main dwelling is and
the other one where the accessory structure is now. The
guest cottage which would be expanded w.-.uld L~ c~an~d
would be. Now the-Planning Board chairman informed me that

and two small in the rear . The premises contains

This resoluti¢ % was unanimously
Southold TownOBoard of Appeals
-27- ~eptember 3, 1981
(Appeal No. 2864 - Gladys G. Bayles, continUed:)
MR. LARK continued:
although this could be done we could create two lots, he
didn't foresee any problems with that. It was his opinion
that this would not serve either the Bayles Family or the
spirit of the ordinance because then in effect we would
have two lots down %here. The owners do have no intentions
of any type of a sale. They're going to use it as they
have always used it, as a guest storage area-garage complex.
Right now the grandchildren use it primarily the weekends
and during the summer, during recess from school, although
they, he occupies the main house, which by the' way he is
also modernizing and updating which they already have the
permits to do.
Now so after considering it again and going back and
talking.to the applicant, it was decided and conferring as
I said with the Chairman of the Planning Board, it was
thought that the best way to.handle it and preserve the
spirit of the zoning ordinance would be to ask for a
variance to create or to allow the two houses on the one
lot. It is no subdivision here. It would have to go and
remain as one.parcel 'situation, and namely because as I
said because of the use of the property and its'location,
and for the other reasons as I stated forth in the appli-
cation.
Also, although there would be no difficulties from
a legal point of view creating a'subdivision there becomes
several practical difficulties. If you had a subdivision,
the main house lot which would be the most southerly lot
would have to have an easement over the other lot due to
the configuration. You're right on the end of Nassau
Point, as you are all aware of. That would be one problem
right off the bat.
The other problem.is where Would you draw the lot line
which,, because you wouldn't want to necessarily, there's
enough room there, but where would you draw it for the side
yards between the two places. That was another-- we
ended up with morepractical problems by doing it that way.
And so, as I said he felt that the best way to do it would
be to apply to the Board of Appeals to obtain a variance
rather than go through the subdivision process because, you
know, the practical difficulties.
Also keep in mind that we're not creating two lots here
even though we have five acres, we're not creating two
building lots.
The well will continue will continue to serve as it
does today, both places, and the cesspools will continue to
serve bOth places. So you're not getting a situation where
Southold Td~5 Board of Appeals -28-~September 3, 1981
(Appeal No. 2864 - Gladys G. Bayles, continued:)
MR. LARK continued:
you're having two.independent lots. So as I say, keeping
that in mind and the strictly residential character of
Nassau Point, it was felt to apply for a variance.
Now, let's look at the facts that the board will have
to consider. How substantial is the variance in relation-
ship to the requirements. The requirement says only one
dwelling on one lot in an A-Residential & Agricultural
District, which is what this is. And in order to have a
residence on a lot, a lot is defined as 40,000 square feet.
So here we have 5.45 acres, or 237,400 square feet, so I
don't think that the requirement that we're asking for a
variance is very substantial as would be if you had a much
smaller property hemmed in by other properties. So I
think that's an important factor.
The other, the effect of the variance if' allowed on
the increased population density produced on other avail-
able governmental facilities. Keep in mind we're not
creating two lots or a two-family situation. It's still
going to remain as just two dwellings on one lot. We
have several other situations in the toWn where we have
that, so you don't have like two independent situations
there, which you would have with two lots. And the owners
don't want that. They are just going to continue to use
it like they have. So there will be no increase in the
population density, and as I say, keep in mind the guest
cottage there today does contain one bedroom, a bathroom,.
and a.garage facility. The expansion as you saw on the
plans will contain the same bedroom and enlarged, bathroom
and living area, and also it will have a kitchenette
facility with a toilet facility attached off to it, and
then the garage area. So there isn't going to be any
increase in the bedrooms or.that, just the living area
size of the house.
And whether there would be, another one, a substantial
change will be produced in the character of the neighborhood
or substantial detriment to adjoining properties. As you
see from the map, the applicant also owns property to the
north there, other property, which acts as a buffer, and
then for another five-acre piece as a matter of fact, which
is split by the driveway going in and out. You have that
as a buffer and then you have just the two houses, and don't
forget you have the isolation of this being at the tip of
Nassau Point. So we don't feel there will be any change at
all in the neighborhoods.
I covered with you whether the difficulties can be
obviated by some other method. A~subdivision, althOugh it
can be done legally, Could create more problems than it's
So~thold Tow~oard of Appeals
-29- ~ptember 3, 1981
(Appeal No. 2864 - Gladys G. Bayles, Continued:)
MR. LARK continued:
possibly worth, and the applicant is not interested in that.
The other thing that interestingly Could be done, but
it would be an architectural..disaster, if the builder de-
cided to put the addition on the southerly portion of the
house of the guest cottage, it would probably hook onto the
main dwelling, and you could end up with just one dwelling
there. But even though it would have separate entrances
but architectually and aesthetically looking at the area it
would, although it's a.way out of the dilemna of expanding
it and keeping one house.. You can have more than several
kitchens in one structure. It would be an architectural
mess. And so, that's why it was laid out the way you have
it in the plans. ...
And then the last factor, in view of the manner in
which it arose -- it as I said has been there since 1936,
and the use has been there since '36 and it's just a modern-
ization, updating it if you would, and with an expansion to
make it more comfortable for the owners and his children and
grandchildren.
And taking all the factors into consideration, I think
the granting of the variance is the best way to obviate the
practical difficulty of this.
If the board has any questions, I'll be glad to answer
them.
MEMBERGOEHRINGER:
Mrs. Bayles?
I was wondering, Mr. Lark -- is it
MR. LARK: Mrs. Bayles, that's the legal ownership in
the Estate. She has passed away. It's her husband actually
the owner.
MEMBER GOEHRINGER: Is there any problem with Mr. Bayles
living with the restriction of it never being rented?
MR. LARK: That's no problem. You mean with the acces-
sory building, in other words the one that-- there's no
question about that. In fact you can put another one with
it being subdivided, because the intent is not to subdivide,
because I went through that already, is figuring the way out
and the owner said, "No, I don't want a subdivision there."
So, that is no proble~ Because it's strictly a family-use
situation.
MR. CHAIRMAN: Anyone else to speak for this?
MR, EVERETT: I represent the Nassau Point Property

Owners Association, and we have gone on record as ( ) opposing
two houses on one lot. This has, we do this with regret as
far as the Bayleses are concerned. We recognize everything
that Walter Uhl has said, but I think that's for the now and
we don't know what's going to happen in the future. We feel
that putting two houses on one lot.is a further step towards
jeopardizing an already precarious water supply. We are
rapidly approaching the maximum number of houses on the Point
that will'be permitted by the Suffolk County-~Board of Health.
They have set that figure at.350, com se, com sa a few, and
we are already over 300. Now we have consistently opposed
this type of construction of placing two houses on one lot.
We feel that in this case, I understand the situation, I am
in sympathy with it, and but we're still speaking for the now.
As far as that particular thing is concerned. What's going
to happen tomorrow, if Mr. Bayles passes away and the
property passes into other hands, and the other lots are
subdivided by the new owner, then we're going to have that
twO-house on one lot situation and a house on every one of
'the other five acres, you see. These are the possibilities
we have to face, and it's for this reason that'we must
support the building department objections, and withhold
your approval.

Gentlemen:
eptember 2,1981
Town ol Souihold
While I am no longer President of the Nassau Point Property
Owners Association, I would like to comment as a resident
of Nassau Point on the request for variance to complete
a second residence on the Bayles property at the end of
Nassau Point.
As pointed out in the request for a variance, this is a
large piece of property,about 5 acres, and could be easily
divided to accommodate additional residences. Apparently
this is not the intention of the applicant and I can
understand his position.
Our position on Nassau Point, in view of our water supply
and quality problems, is to limit the number of homes that
may be built by all legal and proper means. While the
applicant represents that this additional residence will
only be used' by members of his family and friends, my
concern is for the future when someday this property will
change ownership and a new owner may not have a great
concern for the area.
I recall a somewhat similar request for variance that came
to your Board about a year ago (the Noreklun case in Orient?)
where the applicant requested permission to fix a barn on
his single lot into a residence for his parents. I thought
that your handling of the request was excellent and suggest
that a similar arrangement be made on the current case. As I
recall you set a list of requirements that would insure that
the second residence would -~only be used for the stated
purpose, that it would never be rented and that annual
inspections of the property by your Board would guarantee
that the provisions of the agreement were being followed.
These stipulations would carry over to any new owner in the
future.
This solution seems equitable to all parties - present
owners and neighbors on Nassau Point. I hope that you will
come to a decision along these lines.
Very truly yours,
K
