Southold Town Board of Appeals =13- October 3 , 1985 Regular Meeting
PENDING DECISION : Appeal No, 3386 :
Application of NICHOLAS TSIRKAS , 3504 208th Street , Bayside , NY
11361 , for a Variance to the Zoning rdinance , Article XI , Section
100-119. 2 (A) [1 ] for permission to locate proposed dwelling with an
insufficient setback from edge of the bank along the Long Island Sound.
Location of Property : North Side of Sound Avenue , Greenport , NY ;
Eastern Shores Subdivision Map 4586 , Lot 113 ; County Tax Map District
1000 , Section 33 , Block 01 , Lot 11 .
Following deliberations , the board took the following action :
WHEREAS , a public hearing was held .and concluded on August 22 ,
1985 in the Matter of the Application of NICHOLAS TSIRKAS under Appeal
No . 3386 ; and
WHEREAS , the board members have personally viewed and are
familiar with the premises in question and the surrounding area ; and
WHEREAS , the board has considered all testimony and documentation
submitted concerning this application ; and it is noted for the record
that there has been no public opposition ; and
WHEREAS , the board made the following findings of fact :
1 . By this application , appellant requests permission to locate
a new single-family dwelling with attached rear deck with a setback
from the edge of the bank along the Long Island Sound at 35 feet ,
from the southerly (front ) property line along Sound Drive at 35
feet , from the westerly (side ) property line at 10 feet , and from
the easterly (side ) property line at 15 feet .
2 . The premises in question is identified on the Suffolk County
Tax Maps as District 1000 , Section 33 , Block 1 , Lot 11 , contains an
area of 25 ,250 sq . ft . and lot width of 100 feet .
3. Article XI , ' Section 100- 119. 2 , ' sub-paragraph A(2 ) requires
all buildings located on lots adjacent to Long Island Sound to be
. set back not less than one-hundred ( 100 ) feet from the ordinary
highwater mark of Long Island Sound .
4 . The dwelling proposed by this application is of a size
47 ' deep by 67 feet wide , and as sketched on survey amended April 3 ,
1985 appears to meet all other zoning setback and other requirements
of the code .
5 . The board agrees with the reasoning of the Suffolk County
Southold Town Board of Appeals -14- October 3 , 1985 Regular Meeting
(Appeal No . 3386 - NICHOLAS TSIRKAS , continued : )
Soil and Water Conservation District and the U . S . Department of
Agriculture , Soil Conservice Service Department , that by locating
the dwelling 35 feet from the edge of the bluff, during heavy rains
the soil will become saturated and this and additional weight may
cause the face of the bluff to slide , endangering the dwelling , as
well as any other structures . (See letters dated September 30 , 1985) .
In considering this appeal , the board finds and determines :
(a ) that this proposed is not consistent with those generally exist-
ing in the neighborhood since the existing dwellings are set back
substantially farther from the bluff; (b ) the relief requested
is substantial in relation to this zoning requirement , being 65%
of a variance ; (c ) that by allowing the variance as applied , there
will be a substantial change in the character o.f the district since
it would set a precedent ; (d) that the safety of the occupants of
the dwellingas proposed will be endangered; (e ) that the interests
of justice will not be served by allowing the variance as applied .
Accordingly , on motion by .Mr. Douglass , seconded by
Mr . Grigonis , it was
RESOLVED , that the relief requested under Appeal No. 3386
for a setback of 35 feet from the bluff area along the Long Island
Sound in the Matter of the Application of NICHOLAS TSIRKAS , be
and hereby IS DENIED WITHOUT PREJUDICE .
Vote of the Board : Ayes : Messrs . Goehringer , Grigonis ,
Douglass and Sawicki . (Member Doyen of Fishers Island was absent . )
This resolution was adopted by unanimous vote of the members
present .
PENDING DECISION : Appeal No . 3394 :

(or ordinary highwater mark ) , at 6675 Nassau Point Road , Cutchogue ,
NY; Nassau Point Filed Map No . 156 , Lot 48 ; County Tax Map District
1000 , Section 111 , Block ' 15 , Lot. 7 .
Following deliberations , the board took the following action :
WHEREAS , a public hearing was held and concluded on September 12 ,
1985 , in the Matter of the Application of STEVEN EGGERS, Appeal
No . 3394; and '
WHEREAS, the board members .have personally viewed and are
familiar with the premises in question and the. surrounding area ; and

Southold Town Board of Appeals -15- October 3 , 1985 Regular Meeting
(Appeal No . 3394 - STEVEN EGGERS , decision , continued : )
WHEREAS , the board made the following findings of fact:
1 . By this application , appellant requests permission to locate
a 12 ' by 16 ' accessory storage building which will be used incidental
to the residential use of the premises for storage of outdoor beach ,
boating , fishing and similar items .
2 . The accessory building is proposed to be located a minimum
of 25 feet from the northerly property line and along the upper
bulkhead , which is at an elevation of 50 feet or more above mean
sea level and is shown to be approximately 14 feet landward from
the lower bulkhead , upon which existed previously a 15 ' by 15 '
storage structure .
3. The parcel in question is located in the "A-40" Residential
and Agricultural Zoning District , contains an area of 41 ,500 sq . ft .
and is known as Lot No . 48 on the "Amended Map A, Nassau Point Club
Properties , Inc . , " identified on the Suffolk County Tax Maps as
District 1000 , Section 111 , Block 15 , Lot 7 .
4 . Existing upon the premises are a 12-story frame house
accessory swimmingpool , and accessory garage , all as shown on
survey amended June 22 , 1984 , prepared by Roderick VanTuyl , P . C .
5 . Article XI , Section 100-119 . 2 ( B ) of the Zoning Ordinance
restricts structures proposed on lots adjacent to tidal water
bodies to be set back not less than 75 feet from the ordinary
highwater mark of such tidal water body , or not less than 75 feet
from the landward edge of the tidal wetland , whichever is greater .
6 . It is the opinion of the board that the building loca-
tion proposed is not unreasonable , particularly since there are
bulkheads seaward of this proposed location and since the eleva-
tion is more than 50 feet above mean sea level .
In cons.idering this appeal , the board finds and determines :
(a ) that the relief requested is not substantial under the
circumstances ; (b ) . that by allowing the variance as condition-
ally noted below , there will not be a substantial change in the

Southold Town Board of Appeals -17- October 3 , 1985 Regular Meeting
(Appeal No . 3390 -. RICHARD AND DIANE ALLEN , decision , continued : )
2 . The property in question is known as Lot #3 on the Minor
Subdivision Map of Meyer Rosenberg approved by the Southold Town
Planning Board on November 27 , 1978 , and is located on the east
side of a private right-of-way located off the south side of Indian
Neck Road , Peconic .
3. The premises in question contains a total area of 1 . 267
acres and is presently vacant.
4 . Article III , Section 100-31 , Bulk Schedule of the Zoning
Code requires a minimum rearyard setback of 50 feet for new prin-
cipal buildings , and the applicant is requesting a variance of
four feet for a 46-foot setback , or a variance of eight percent.
.5 . It is the opinion of the board that the relief requested
is the minimum necessary under the circumstances and that it is
the location of the right-of-way that lends to the difficulties
of building on this parcel .
In considering this appeal , the board finds and determines :
(a) that the relief requested is not substantial under the circum-
stances , being eight percent of a variance of the requirements ;
(b ) that by allowing the variance there will not be a substantial
change in the character of the district ; (c ) that the safety ,
health , welfare , comfort , convenience and order of the town will
not be adversely affected by the proposed business use and its
location ; (d ) that the circumstances are unique ; (e ) that the
interests of justice will be served by allowing the variance as
applied .
Accordingly , on motion by Mr . Sawicki , seconded by Mr . Goeh-
ringer , it was
RESOLVED , that permission BE AND HEREBY IS GRANTED AS APPLIED
UNDER APPEAL NO . 3390 in the Matter of the Application of Richard
and Diane Allen , to construct a new single-family dwelling with an
insufficient rearyard setback from the easterly property line at .
46 feet .
Vote of the Board: Ayes : Messrs . Goehringer , Grigonis ,
Douglass and Sawicki . (Member Doyen of, Fishers Island was absent
due to weather conditions . )
