CHAIFMAN: There is a sketch here in the file which indicates they intend essentially to divide the house dorm the middle. Is there anyone present who wishes to speak for this application? PAIR® RICHARD C. WHITLOCK� Tuckers Lane, Southold, New York: I think I have stated my reasons quite thoroughly in the application. If you will look at the sketch, it will make a very nice apartment. I have been approached by several people we know who are looking for an apartment. CHAIMAN: Is there anyone else present who wishes to speak for this application? Is there anyone present who wishes to speak against this application? (There was no response.) CHAIRMA.1\l: I would like to say for the record, that it is not permitted for this Board to. consider a financial hardship because that is a hardship common to all of us. In my opinion I believe this would be an improvement to the neighborhood and you are changing this from a rooming house to a two family dwelling and is an improvement for reasons which you state. MR. WHITLOCK: We feel the same at home because roomers are not an asset. They are a bother. Resolution was offered by Mr. Bergen, seconded by Mr. Grigonis and carried, WHFREAS application of Richard C. Whitlock having been considered at Public Hearing No. 255 on February 18, 1960, and the Board finding that strict appli- cation of the Ordinance would produce undue hardship because the house, is much too large as a one family dwelling and would be ideal as a two-family dwelling. The situation is unique and would not be shared by all properties alike in the immediate vicinity because none of the properties in the area are as large or as old as this residence. The public convenience and welfare and justice will be served and the legally established or permitted use of neighborhood property and, adjacent use districts would not be substantially or perm- anently injured and the spirit of the Ordinance would be - observed because there will now be a permanent two family residence instead of a one family residence with roomers. There will be no structural changes made to indicate two familiesq therefore be it RESOLVED that the application be granted as applied for. ..

Duryee, proprietor of a hardware store in Mattituck, appeared before the Board of Appeals for an informal discussion. Mr. Lutz explained that they represent 21 merchants along Love Lane and- Pike Street who have joined together and wish to call that section the Mattituck Shopping Center: Their present problem is directional signs. On County Route 27A, approximately 200 Feet east and west of Love Lane, there are now two signs about 2 ft. by 3 ft. They would like to enlarge and refinish those two signs. The question is enlarging and moving them back and forth according to the wishes of the landlords . Mr. Lutz stated there was also a sign on the south side of Route 25 on the Silk-worth corner which was about 5 ft. by 8 ft. The sign had been overhauled and. reinstalled about two years ago, but the County, when working on Route 25, removed the sign and it has not been replaced. They would like to find a new location for the sign because they cannot put it up in the same place again. The Board advised that in cases where the State road program caused removal of signs they had permitted the relocation of the sign in some instances, for example, motels and restaurants , and the Board definitely feels the Shopping Center to be in the public interest. It was decided by M7. Lutz and K-L . Duryee that they would loom for new locations of the several signs and then come before the Board of Appeals to see if the proposed locations would be satisfactory. The Board of Appeals received an application for a variance from George Bird, 843 East Main Street, Riverhead, appealing from the decision of the Building Inspector on application for building permit Z971. Mr. Bird has purchased Lot No. 21 at Lupton Point from Mr. Walter Grabie. This lot has a 75 ft: frontage on Lupton Point Road and 100 ft. on Deep Hole Creek with a depth of 237 and 274 ft. The -Board decided to forward a letter to Pair. Bird calling his attention to Article Y, Section 1000A which reads as -follows: "No lot shall be sold, divided or set off in such a Southold Town Board of Appeals -6- February 18, 1960 manner that either the portion sold, divided, or set off, or the portion remaining shall have an area and/or open spaces of less than that prescribed by this Ordinance for the district in which said lot is located." Therefore the Board did not schedule Mr. BirdTs appeal for hearing. The Board of Appeals received a letter from Robert H. Preston, Greenport, New York stating that it is his desire to sell parcels of land on Sterling Creek at Greenport 20 ft. by 75 ft. These parcels to be used as boat slips with no structures except a boardwalk dock. Mr. Preston wished to know if there would be any objection as far as zoning is concerned. The Chairman advised he would speak to Robert Tadker, Town Attorney, in regard to this matter. The next meeting of the Southold Town Board of Appeals will be held 7:3 0-P.M. , March 3, 1960 at the Town Clerk Office, Main Road, Southold, New York. Meeting adjourned at 11:10 P.M.
