THE CHAIRMAN: Is there anyone present who wishes to speak for this application MR. FREDERICK E. GORDON, Fifth..Street, Greenport., New York: I would like to possibly help. it along if I could by showing ' you the sketch. The lot to the west which. was mentioned.also belongs to Rev. Wagner. The lot to the east is very low and faces Orchard Lane and if anyone did build they would without a doubt face the house to Orchard Lane rather than Bay View Road. THE CHAIRMAN: What is on the other, side .c Bay View 'Drive? MR. GODDON; There are severalYnuses there. 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? (There was no- response. ) THE CHAIRMAN: Mr. Gordon, what. is the width of the roads in. Gardiner's Bay Estates? MR. GORDON; I believe. 30 ft. THE CHAIRMAN: The people- in Gardiner's Bay Estates wish these roads to be private to discourage speeders and so forth, so I guess Mr. Wagner knows what he is getting into with respect to- the Ordinance. MR. GORDON: That is right. I also might state that if anyone in Gardiner's Bay wishes to build or add on they must submit their plans to .the -Gardiner's Bay -Association for their approval. THE CHAIRMAN: What are other setbacks in the area? MR. GORDON; They are all irregular. Others are less than 26 ft. which Rev. Wagner is requesting. I Southold Town Board of Appeals -3- May 11, 1961 application The Board finds that strict/of the' Ordinance would produce practical difficulties or unnecessary hardship because the home is so constructed that without the addition in the front the complete layout of the house would not be suitable for a year- around home. The hardship created is unique and would not be shared by all properties alike in the .immediate vininity of this property and in the same use district because this. home is the only building on this street and the owner owns the land to the . west on which no future construction is planned. The variance does observe the spirit of the Ordinance and would not change the character of the district. because in the entire subdivision of Gardiner's Bay Estates there is no definite setbacks on any of the present construction; therefore On. motion of Mr. Gillispie, seconded by Mr. Bergen, it was RESOLVED that Frederick E. Gordon, Fifth Street, Greenport, New York, a/c Louis Wagner, Bay View Drive, East Marion, New York, be granted permission to reduce front yard .setback to no less than 2 6 ft. on Bay View Road, East Marion, New York, Lots 39 and part of 40, Section 2, Gardiner's Bay Estates. ' Vote of the Board: Ayes;- Mr. Gillispie, Mr. Bergen, Mr. ' Rosenberg, and Mr. Grigonis. PUBLIC HEARING: Appeal No. 357 - 7:45 P.M.

Schultze, d/b/a f'G & S" Service Station, Route 25, Greenport, New York, for permission to extend the time limit for securing building permit. Location of property: south side Route 25, Greenport, New York, bounded north by Main Road, east-by Robert Brown, south by Railroad, and west by -E. E. Johnson. Fee paid $15. 00. The Chairman opened the hearing by reading application for permissive use, legal notice of hearing and. affidavit attesting to its publication in the official newspaper. THE CHAIRMAN; Is 'there anyone present who wishes to speak for this application? LEFFERTS P: EDSON, ESQ. , Southold, New York: The reason for the applicants not having applied during the permitted time Southold Town Board of Appeals -4- May 11, 1961 is that they had taken over an additional gas station during the year and as that, acquisition had takal some of their cash set .aside for the new project, they were held up in starting this new gas stat.ion. and public garage. 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? (There was no response. ) THE, CHAIRMAN: I do not believe the main purpose- of the Board was that the structure was to be erected within a certain time, but . that a blank --check -was not given so the applicants could sell the property for . speculation, and so forth. What .would the extension of time be that.-they would need? MR. EDSON: I would presume an additional year. THECHAIRMAN: Are there any other questions? (There was no response. ) The Board -of Appeals finds that applicants failed to secure building permit within time limit which was set in special ex-- ' ception granted March 10, 1960 under Appeal No. 257, due to the fact they were unable to complete procedures necessary prior to filing application for a building permit for the erection of a gasoline service station and public garage. They are now ready to begin construction The ,Board further finds that .the' use will not prevent the orderly and .reasonable use of adjacent properties or of properties in adjacent use districts; that the use will not prevent the orderly and reasonable use of permitted or legally established uses in the district wherein the proposed use is to be located or of permitted or legally established uses in adjacent use 'dis- tricts; that the safety, the health, the welfare, the comfort, the convenience or the order of the Town will not be adversely affected by the proposed use and its location; and the use will r .Southold Town' Board of Appeals -5- stay ll, 1961 be in harmony with and promote the general purposes and intent of the Ordinance, therefore On. motion of 'Mr. Gillispie, seconded by Mr. Grigonis, it.was RESOLVED that the time limit for securing. building permit by Claudio ,Gioyanelli and Frederick Schultze, d/b/a "G & S" service Station, Route 25, Greenpott, for * th.e erection of a public garage and gasoline service station at -Route 25, Greenport, be -extended for one year from the original expiration date of March 10, 1961, making the new termination date for filing application for a building permit March 10, 1962.

THE CHAIRMAN: is there anyone present who wishes to speak for this application? RO,BERT .KETCHAM., JR. , Bay Lake Park, East .Marion, New York: There isn't anything to add. The wording on the sign is all necessary. Without any of it .the sign would be .worthless. Charcoal Broil is sort -of a trade mark of the' Coronet. THE CHAIRMAN: The . sign you are requesting would be in the natureo,f .an advertising sign rather than directional information for the traveling public. Southold, Town Board of Appeals -6- May 11, 1961 THE CHAIRMAN: Is there anyone 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? (There was no response. ) MR. BERGEN; Mr. Ketcham, do you own these signs and then rent them out? MR. KETCHAM: No, I just -apply for the permit, put them up and then the customer pays me for the signs. THE CHAIRMAN: Do you own any of these..signs. you erect? MR. KETCHAM: No, I just .sell them after I put them up- I do. not rent. any signs out. THE, CHAIRMAN: With reference to the wording .on the sign, the time 5:30 A.M.-could. be allowed because that is unusual and would be important to- the traveling public. However, the only other . wording that -would be allowed would be; the location in Greenport, Coronet. Restaurant, and open 5:30 A.M. MR. KETCHAM: I do not know if he would still take the sign if he has to eliminate charcoal broil, he feels that is most important in supplying the public. "THE CHAI.RMAN: In May 1958 we startedgranting directional signs for restaurants, motels and hotels and. not one has been granted anything that is not , directional. 'Would you like us to continue this hearing until next week so you can speak to the Coronet .Restaurant again? MR_ KETCHAM: Yes, I would.

(E.D.S.T. ) ,, upon application of Walter Grab.ie, Main .Road, Mattituck, New York, for a spe c ial exception in accordance with the Zoning Ordinance, Article IV, ' Section ,408, for permission to locate sign with reduced setback. Location of property; (property of Silkworth) Grabie Appliance -Store., south side Main Road, .Mattituck., New York. Fee paid $15. 00. The chairman opened the hearing.by reading application for a_ special exception, legal notice of hearing and affidavit -attest- ingto its publication in the official newspaper. THE CHAIRMAN; Is there anyone present who wishes to speak for this application? MR. WALTER GRABIE, Mattituck, New York: I have never seen anyone walk the full, length . of the sidewalk, so I don't think it would be in anyones way. If I put it where the.., Ordinance requires it would stick out where cars and trucks drive in and out and cause a hazard and cut- down the size of the parking field. THE 'cHAIRMAN: The main objections to locating the sign closer than 5 ft. are: 1. The affect that the location of the sign will have upon undue increase of vehicular traffic .con- gestion. The affect . it would have on pe.opl-e trying to come in and go out of the parking lot. The affect it would have on visibility of people traveling east .from the city. 2. Mr. Anderson of the State Highway Department has specifically asked that .on corners things be placed back 25' ft. This is not a corner but it is a very sharp curve and it . is at- a .dangerous intersection. MR: GRABIE: I can understand that. I do not .w,ant anything that would not be permitted anyone else. I will put the sign in the right place according to the Ordinance. Southold Town Board of Appeals -15- May 11, 1961 After repeated visits by members .of the Board, the -con- tention that a permitted sign five ft. from the property line would not be visible from -certain approaches is not. borne out. The applicantPs premises have 13. show windows, approximately 444 sq. ft. and is plainly. visible from any direction. All of his .windows are well illuminated -and at present have the customary signs.. He is permitted a . large wall sign and a large detached sign and may place the detached '.sign five ft. from his property line. He claims that a 5 ft. setback would render his detached sign valueless as it.. could not be seen from .certain- approaches. This is not borne out, in fact his windows are more clearly visible than any detached sign. As a result of these investigations the Board determined that there was no reason why a sign should be placed closer than permitted all others, where ample space was provided. By permitting such erection substantial injustice would be done other property owners and the public convenience and welfare .and justice would not be served and the legally established -or permitted use .of the neighborhood property would be substantially or permanently injured and the spiait of the- Ordinance would not be observed, therefore On motion of.Mr. Gillispie, seconded by Mr. Rosenberg, it was RESOLVED that Walter C. Grabie be denied permission to locate sign with reduced setback on his property leased from Silkworth) , south. side Main Road, Mattituck, New York. This action does not in any 'Way interfere with the appli- cant' s right to erect and maintain a wall sign and a detached .sign in- accordance with the provisions of the Building , Zone ordinance.
