APP VED / ZONING BOARD OF APPEA~.~ ~
'. ~)i\J~,,~. _ - !! ~J~arjo~io McDermott, Secretary
C~ma. ~f App~s ~
After investigation and inspection the Board finds that
applicant requests permission to add and improve existing non-
conforming buildings to make a total of four dwelling units of
existlug non-conforming camp buildings located on the east side
of Bray Avenue, Laurel, New York. The findings of the Board are
that the property consists of only cue half acre which is much
too small an area for the purposes requested by the applicant.
This proposal would require a change of zone. A two family
dwelling requires 80,000 square feet of area. Four units is
beyond the power of the Board of Appeals to grant.
Based on the size of lots in the surrounding area, many
of which are one quarter acre in size, the maximum that would
be permitted would be two resldeuces. If the existing buildings
were demolished, two lots could probably be recognized. The
only alternative for applicant would be to divide the property
into two lots and erect a one family house on each lot.
The Board finds that strict application of the Ordinance
would not produce practical difficulties or unnecessary hardship;
the hardship created is not unique and would be shared by all
properties alike in the immediate vicinity of this property and
in the same use district; and the variance will change the
character of the neighborhood, and will not observe the spirit of
the Ordinance.
TREREPORE iT WAS RESOLVED John Christie, 320 Front Street,
Greenport, New York, be DENIED permission to add and improve existing
hen-conforming buildings to make a total of four dwelling units of
existing non-conforming camp buildings located on the east side
of Bray Avenue, Laurel, New York, for the reasons stated.
Vote of the Board: Ayes:- Messrs: Gillispie, Bergen, Grigonis,
Hnlse.

of a kitchen, laboratory, recreat/on room, rear porch at ~round

unitwhich houses the water supply and is used for storage.
Building #3 - an 18' x 18' structure, used as a Priest's
retreat~ c~tains a kitchen, bath, and living quarters.
It is my intention to transform these buildings ~nto four (4)
