MR- LEON MUNIERO 50 Sutton Place Southo New York 22* New York: I- have a survey that was made when we purchased the property. THE cHAIRMAN: There are two pictures in the file indicathg the situation. MR. MUNIERs The lot is only 82 ft, wide where the house is built, however I have 100 ft. on Peconic Bay Boulevard and 100 ft. on the Bay,_ the house is built parallel to the line- There is approximately 8 ft. from the front of the house to the beach. There are 30 steps down to the beach., THE CHAIRMAN; What is the distance to the line on the other side of the house, that is the east side of the house? MR_MUNIER: Approximately 25 ft. to 30 ft. THE CHAIRMAN; It is the Board's opinion that it would be smarter to add the room to the house at the. point you desire rather than the front because of the embankment . At the point of the addition only one corner of the proposed room violates the 10 ft, setback requirements 4 ft. 6 in, of the corner of the proposed addition. MR, MUNIERs That is correct. The house is built at an angle parallel with the lot line on the Bay. THE CHAIRMAN: is there anyone else present who wishes to speak for this application? (There was no response.) THE CHAIRMAN: Is there anyone present who wishes to speak against this application? Southold Town Board of Appeals --3- October 20., 1960 (There was no response. ) Resolution was offered by Mr. Bergen, seconded by Mr. Grigonis, and carried« WHEREAS application of Leon L,. Munier having been considered at Public Hearing No, 315 on October 20, 1960, and the Board finding that strict application of the Ordinance would produce practical difficulties or unnecessary hardship because applicant must build addition at location indicated because of the existence of a window and chimney. The hardship created is unique and would not be shared by all properties alike in th=_ immediate vicinity of this property arl in the same us e district because many neighboring houses are now built closer than 10 ft. to the side lot line. The variance does observe the spirit of the Ordinance and would not change the character of the district because the proposed addition would be residential in keeping with the neighborhood, therefore be it RESOLVED that Leon L. Munier be granted permission to erect addition to existing one family dwelling, the corner of which addition will be no closer than 5 ft. 6 in. to the westerly property line,.
