.THE CHAIRMAN: Is there anyone present who wishes to speak
for this application?
HARRY PUMILLO, JR. , .Cutchogue, New York: I have nothing to
add to the application. .
(In answer to questions posed by the. Chairman, Mr. Pumillo
stated that the miniature golf course is all made of cement and
is one continuous side walk. There will be objects such as wind-
mill, telephone, lighthouse, etc. It will be fenced in on all
sides by 6 ft. and 4 ft. barricade fencing. The longest length
is over 30 ft. for the drives on the course. The area to be
reserved for parking will be 100 ft. by 100 ft. and 100 ft. by
100 ft. is to be reserved for the course itself. )
THE CHAIRMAN: If this application is granted when would
construction start?
(Mr. Pumillo stated that construction will not start for
approximately a year. He had intended to start this spring but
had difficulty with the 'financing of the project. He hopes to
start by February of 1963. )
THE CHAIRMAN: Is there anyone present who wishes to speak
against--.this application?
(There was no response. )
This is an application for a special exception to erect and
maintain a miniature golf course with related facilities. approx- ;
imately 160 feet from the Main Road property line, directly in
the rear of the existing restaurant and residence..' At the present
time. two access driveways exist.
The proposed enterprise will occupy a plot approximately 100ft.
by 100 ft. and will consist of the usual equipment. It will be
properly enclosed and the proposed lighting will not cause a
traffic hazard.
The standards set forth in the Ordinance for consideration
for a special exception have been met.
After investigation- and inspection the Board feels that this
enterprise meets all the requirements for the special exception
and should be granted with the condition that substantial construction

be completed. within 12 months from the date of this resolution.
On motion of Mr. Gillispie, .seconded by Mr. Rosenberg, it was
s
RESOLVED that Harry Pumillo, .Jr. be granted permission• to
erect and- maintain a miniature golf course on property located on
the south side of Main Road, Cutchogue, New York.
. Substantial construction must be completed within 12 months
from the date of this resolution.
Vote. of the Board: Ares:- Mr. Gillispie, Mr. Bergen, .and
Mr. Rosenberg.
-Mr. :Robert -Ketcham, Jr.. , East Marion, appeared before the
Board of Appeals for an informal discussion. Mr.. Ketcham wishes
to erect a directional sign for the Park Diner on the property of
Sage in west Greenport and two directional signs for Rhodos Pavilion
on the property of Sage in west Greenport and Edwin King in west
Greenport. These directional. signs would be 4 ft. by 6 ft.
The Board stated that the sign for the Park Diner seems
reasonable but Rhodos Pavilion presently has two signs placed
in the highway and they could not be allowed additional signs
when they presently have two illegal signs.
There was a brief discussion relative to the sign of Crescent
Beach Colony which was ere cted on the Fismer property in Southold.
Mr. Ketcham secured permission to erect this sign and when it was
erected illegal wording was placed on the sign. Mr. Ketcham stated
that he advised Mr. Corniburt that the additional wording would not
be allowed but Mr. Corniburt wished the sign erected anyway.
On motion of Mr. Bergen, .seconded by Mr. Rosenberg, 'it was
RESOLVED that the minutes of the meeting of April 5, .1962 be

PUBLIC HEARING: Appeal No. 448 - 8: 30 P.M. (E.S.T. ) , upon
application of Kenneth. A. Raab,. P. 0. Box 116, Bay Avenue, -East
Marion, New York, for a variance in accordance with the Zoning
Ordinance, Article III, _Section 307, for permission to reduce
side yard setback. Location of property: ::private road off Bay
Avenue, East Marion, -.New. York, bounded northby private road, east
by E. .C. Moore, south by Lake and west by K. T. Dimon. Fee paid
$15. 00.
The Chairman opened the hearing by reading application for a
variance, 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?
MR. KENNETH RAAB, Bay':Avenue, - East Marion: I believe the
application covers everything.
. (The Board asked Mr. -Raab to indicate on a pencil tracing
appearing in the file the location of other detached or attached
garages in his neighborhood.. He indicated four detached garages
located almost directly on the front property line and another
setback several feet from the property line. He stated that his
proposed garage would be in line with the house of his adjoining
neighbor. The garage could not be placed in the ..rear yard area
as the land drops off quite steeply. He has located the proposed
garage in such a position as to make it possible to pass to the
rear and so it will not cut off light and air to the existing house. )
THE CHAIRMAN: Is there anyone present who wishes to speak
against this application?
(There was no response. )
This application for reduction of side yard is based upon
a practical difficulty. The lot is 57 feet -wide and the residence
is centered. The proposed attached garage will .be located about
60 ft. from the front property line which is further back than
the average setback. The 2 foot side yard reduction is necessary
Southold Town Board of Appeals -5- april 12, 1962
in order to locate the addition so that access to the rear of the
house may be maintained and at the same time allow light, etc, to
penetrate the residence. The nearest building on the side where
the variance is sought 'is about 40 ft.
After inspection and investigation the Board feels that
there is a definite practical difficulty and the variance should
be granted.
On motion of Mr. G illispie, seconded by Mr. Bergen, it -was
RESOLVED that Kenneth"A. . Raab be granted permission to reduce
side yard- setback to 3 ft. on his westerly side yard. Location of
property: private road off Bay Avenue, East Marion, New York.

Mr. Rosenberg.
