The- Chairman reopened the hearing by reading the amended
application ofor a variance and recognition of access," legal
notice of hearing, affidavit attesting to its publication in
the official newspaper,, and notice to the applicant.
L
The" Chairman reviewed the facts of the case as they were
presented June ll, . 1964.
GEORGE McMANN,JR.-,ESQ. : Before any. further testimony be given
on behalf .of this petition,. I would like to make a motion that the
petition be dismissed from this Board.. This Board does not have
the power to give permission to divide lots. This petition does
not come under the jurisdiction of the Board of Appeals as per
Section 335 of the Real Property Law.
(George McMann,Esq. read part .of this section which stated
in part that when an owner or° agent subdivides real property into
lots,, plots,, blocks,, or sites, with or without streets,",,for the
purpose of offering such lots,, plots," blocks,,. or ' sites for sale
to the public,, regardless of how they are conveyed,: to file or
t
cause to be filed in the office of the county clerk of 'Suffolk
County a map thereof together with a certificate of' the surveyor
endorsed on the face of such map certifying same to have made
from an actual survey of the property and the date of the com-
pletetion of the survey. )
TIDE 'CHAIRMAN: The map hasn't been filed in the' County-Clerk's
Office?
GEORGE McMANN,JR. ,ESQ.: No it hasn't been filed. The relief
in this petition should be in the Planning Board and not in the
Board of-'Appeals. This Board lacks jurisdiction in this petition.
To divide property you must file a map in the County Clerk's office,,
. and it has to be submitted to the Planning Board, not the- Zoning
Board.
THE CHAIRMAN: We have recently obtain a ruling to act on
cases such as ,this one. We handle up to 4 lots being divided,
and this petition would come under us.
GEORGE McMANN',JR.',ESQ. : I still ask that this petition be
dismissed, this Board has no power of grant it.
THE 'CHAIRMAN: I will have to deny your motion. I think this
Board is acting property in giving this application relief in this
situation.
Southold Town Board of Appe'_-_ -; -3- June 25, 191�_
'IT hexe was a great deal of �discussion about how -ma4 lots the
Board of'.Appeals can act on. R. Terry,Es.q. advised the Board could
act on an. applieation up to 4 lots. -,- George McMann,Esq, felt -that
such action was in violation of the Real Property Law)
THE 'CHAIRMAN: Ts there any other legal agrument to be presented why
this application sb.o_g11 ri-'(_tbe granted?
R.G. TERRY,ESQ.: , I don't want to prolong the matter. I would
ask that .the Board give favorable consideration to this application.
THEWCHAIRMAN: Are there ahy -other questions?
HOWARD SCHWARTING; Member of :Civic°Association: The application
has sections 304,' 307,, 308,, which permits to vary the side line and
the the l-ot lines. If 'this continues to be the case of the Board
of 'Appeals to rule on cases like this,, I think the.'Cvic `Association
.is going to take. some steps on this. If, this continues .there is
going to.- be a serious situation in regard to. sewage .control and in
the ..xe gulations set up by the Town. Ordinance. Here you„say that
the Town Ordinance was brought into effect-April '28, 1958. to provide
for ' the health,.saftey, and welfare morals of the Town, and -if you
cut up property like this it will effect the property rights of the
people who are coming out her buy land. This whole thing should
have set standard side lines,, and rear lines. There are over 60
amendments to this Ordinance..:,.,;
THE-CHAIRMAN: I have nothing to do with the amendments.
HOWARD- SCHWARTING: I know this Ordinance should be rewritten.
THE CHAIRMAN: Every ordinance has to .adopt itself 'as it-- goes
on. ._ What was true 166 years ago isn't true today. - What happen,
10 years ago isn't true today. Three houses were bought prior to
.the Zoning Ordinance. The total property between these houses and
the lot is 2% acres or something like that. The purpose of this
Board is to relieve hardship. . Don't you think it's a, hardship to
sell three houses on one piece of land?
HOWARD' SXHWARTING: I would try to sell the whole thing as
one parcel of --land.
THE CHAIRMAN: They have tryed to sell it for' 5 years as one
parcel.
Southold Town Board of Appe". -4- June 25, 191,__,
HOWARD SCHWARTING: What is going to be the number of 'square
feet that is allowed. _ Can .you just divide any lot3
HOWARD TERRY,Building Inspector: You would still have to get
an application fora variance.
HOWARD SCHWARTING: Would it be part of the record?
TIE -CHAIRMAN: It is part of the record right now.
HOWARD- SCHWARTING:What is the frontage?
(The Chairman explained the boundries of each lot and what
thelx area and frontage was. )
TI]E- CHAIRMAN: I beleive they all have beach rights also, is that
correct?
R G.: TERRY,ESQ. : Yes, each one has beach rights.
HOWARD- SCHWARTING: What is going to happen .by cutting up these
lots. - What's going to happen in the future?
THE'CHAIRMAN: You are off the- subject. This permission is
asked to give single title to the-property.
HOWARD SCHWARRTING: I agree,, as long as it doesn't conflit with
zoning. People come out here.., buy land,, and build modern houses
on it. Retired people like me and yourself. What's going to
stop someone from coming in the future and changingthis into a two
family dwelling?
THE' CHAIRMAN: I am not sure that legally you can do that.
MR. WETMORE: They are just talking about the sale of the
house, but we have the property to sell also.
MR. HULSE: Mrs. Gittinger will not sell unless this variance
is granted. He won't buy that unless this variance is granted.
GEORGE MCMANN,JR. ,ESQ. : She could sell this as one piece if
she wanted to , so there is no hardship.
THE 'CHAIRMAN: The thing that delayed this hearing is that you
said this Board does not have power to subdivide property.
Southold Town Board of Appe- _.s -5- June 25, 191'_._
GEORGE McMANN,JR. ,ESQ. : So .she still doesn't-need this
variance.
THE 'CHAIRMAN: To sell these three houses she needs this
variance. The buyer won't buy unless this variance is granted.
GEORGE McMANN,JR. ,ESQ. : He doesn't need a variance now, he
needs it in the future.
THE'CHAIRMAN: He wants to be in the position so that if :a
chance comes to sell these lots they will be in separate ownership.
He has to look into the future.
:GEORGE MCMANN,JR.ESQ. : He doesn't have the hardship until the
time he has to sell.
MR. BERGEN: He won't buy these lots unless they are divided
into separate lfts.
THE' CHAIRMAN: The lots and houses have always been there.
Nothing .-is going to be changed,, everthing will remain exactly
the way it has always been.
R,G.TERRY,ESQ.: Unless there is anything further against this
applications -I will again ask that the Board give favorable consider-
ation to this application.
THE' CHAIRMAN: is there anything else to be said against -this
application?
(There was no response. )
THE'CHAIRMAN: I agree with the reasoning in the application.
After investigation and inspection the Board finds that-Charlotte
Gittinger wishes to obtain permission to divide lots and to obtain
approval of access. The Board finds that the best- solution to this
is the division by Otto Van Tuyl, as shown on a survey revised June
18, 1964. The final dividing lines should be as shown on the
survey by Otto Van Tuyl,, revised June 24, 1964.
The Board finds that .the applicant has tried for five years to
sell these three houses located on one single lot. The applicant
now has a buyer for these houses, however the lots :bmust be divided
before the sale will take place. This variance is necessary to
comply with the requirements of the Zoning Ordinance of the Town of
Southold. The Board knows of no other way to divide this property
without causing a unique and unnecessary hardship. This variance
f11 inn n� v�a r change the chbaracttehr of the n�ghborhood because the
use an o s av a ways. een ere an wz remain the same.
Southold Town Board of`AppeL..... -6- June 25,, 196'
These conditions were all created before zoning came into effect,, and
there was no; futuxe insight of zoning. The Board also finds that
the accessrequested is accessible to :fire trucks and other emergency
equipment.
The Board finds that- strict application of the Ordinance will
produce practical difficulties or unnecessary hardship; the hardship
created is unique and would not be shared by all properties alike in
the immediate vicintiy of'this property and in the same use district;
and the variance does observe the spirit- of the Ordinance and will c,
not -change the character of the district.
On motion by Mr. Gillispie, seconded by Mr. Bergen,,. it was
RESOLVED :that R.G. Terry,Esq., Southold,, New York,, a/c 'Charlotte
K. Gittinger,, 3 Forest-Drive, "Springfield, New- Jersey, be granted
permission to divide lots with .insufficient frontage and be granted
approval. of access. The lots shall be divided as shown on the
survey by Otto Van Tuylr revised June, 24, 1964.

The- Chairman read a letter from Joseph L. Townsend, President
of the Sterling -Cemetery.-Association, Greenport, New York,. giving
Sterling. Harbor Marina permission to put a directional sign on
the property of.:Sterling Cemetery Association,
THE' CHAIRMAN: We are not willing - to give permission to locate
a sign on the property of the cemetery. I suggest that perhaps you
could find some other location. Has the president -of the Association
the right to give permission fora sign?
ROBERT PRESTON: I haven't the slightest idea.
THE CHAIRMAN: I still feel the same way about cemeteries. I
think it is wrong to put signs on the cemetery property. I should
think 'there would be someplace else you could put a sign. How about
the lady across the street?
ROBERT 'PRESTON: Evidently she doesn't want a sign there.
MR. CAMPBELL,; Member of:Civic Association: It doesn't seem
possible that you can grant- this without any one here to speak
for the cemetery.
THE CHAIRMAN: You weren't -here when we read the letter from
ithe president- of the Cemetery Association giving permission. We
wondered if the president had the right to do this.
MR. BERGEN: I don't doubt that Mr. Preston needs that sign,,
but he should see if he could get some other location besides the
cemetery. I don't know if owe have the right oto grant.a sign
here.
MR.. CAMPBELL: That is -private property. ;
THE- CHAIRMAN: We would have to -deny a sign here. We can't
possibly grant it..
Anyone else wish to say anything in connection with this
application?
HOWARD SCHWARTING: I think the Board of:Appeals used good
judgement in this case. I sympathize with Mr. Preston,; but a
sign in the cemetery is out of the question.
THE' CHAIRMAN: Would anyone else like to say anything in
connection with this application?
(There was no response. )
Southold Town Board of Ap _ is -13- June '25, -'4
After investigation and inspection the Board finds ,that
Sterling Harbor Marina ,wishes to erect -a directional sign on
. the property of'Sterling Cemetery Association. The sign would
direct people from the North Road to the Marina on Manhasset
Avenue. The Board feels that ,a cemetery is not a peoper place
to locate a sign. Although the president has givengpermission
to locate a sign on the property of the cemetery, the Board
questions whether or not he has the authority to do this. The
Board feels that putting a sign in lithe cemetery is not in- the
public interest.
The Board finds that the public convenience and welfare and
justice will not be served and the legally established or permitted
use of neighborhood property and adjoining use districts. will'_bet
permanently or substantially injured and the spirit of the Ordinance
will. not be observed.
On motion by Mr. Gillispie, seconded, by Mr. Bergen, it was
RESOLVED that Robert H- Preston, President, Sterling Harbor

'WILLIAM WICKHAM, ESQ. : As a matter 'of fact -both pieces were
before the ordinance. . The first in 1952 and this particular 'piece
in 1956, though they are both together now.
THE' CHAIRMAN: What is the setback?
'WILLIAM WICKHAM, 'ESQ. : The setback is 40 feet
THE 'CHAIRMAN: The only thing hthat bothers me if that asking
for a variance in the side yard lines, you are not -going to put
a 60 ft. house on a 75 ft. lot.
WILLIAM WICKHAM,ESQ. : The other houses in the area do not have
side yards of 10 and 151:
THE' CHAIRMAN: Is there no way of cutting this house down?
WILLIAM'WICKHAM; !ESQ.: The builder is here,. you could ask him.
if you ' cut down the house, you cut down the size of the lot.
THE' CHAIRMAN: I think the Board will go along with cutting
downtthe size of the house. You could detachedthe garage.
HAROLD LACEY,- Builder: If we detach the garage it has to be
5 feet from the line?
THE"CHAIRMAN: In the rear yard area.
WILLIAM WICKHAM,ESQ.: The house is 48 feet by itself.
Southold Town Board of Apj,__..s -17- June 25,, 4
THE CHAIRMAN: It has to have minimum side yards of 15' and
1010 We are asking here a lot that" is too wide to create a
hardship... There is no reason why he can't build it "the other
way. This is not created by the Ordinance. He can comply with
the Ordinance. I will go along with this application providing
that he does not vary the side yards at all.
WILLIAM WICKHAM,ES¢. : All these lots were here before the
Ordinance came pinto effect.
THE CHAIRMAN: Are there any 50 fte lots in that?
WILLIAM WICKHAM,ES¢. : I can answer that.
MR. BERGEN: I think that -they are all 75 ft. lots. .
THE 'CHAIRMAN: If.you can detach the garage and move it in the
back yard area,, it will be okay. It caril"t-be added to the house
if you are only going to have a 5 ft, side yard.
''EMOLD LACEY: If it is detached you can have 5 feet?
THE 'CHAIRMAN: Yes. Is there anyone else who wishes to speak
in favor of this application?
(There was no response. )
THE 'CHAIRMAN: Are there any other questions?
(There was no response.)
THE'CHAIRMAN: Is there anyone present who wishes to speak
against- this application?
(There was no response. )
After investigation and inspection the Board finds that
Theodore" Switsavage wishes to build on a lot with insufficient
frontage. The house., he proposes to build will also leave
him with insufficient side yards. The Board is not will
to vary the side yard requirements,, however the applicant may
build on- the lot- without sufficient frontage. Thellackc of
sufficient- sideyards was not created by the" Ordinance. This
can be oavoided by making the house smaller.

THE' CHAIRMAN: Is there anyone present who wishes to speak
in favor of this application?
WILLIAM WICKHAM,ESQ. : There are a good many people and an
increasing number' of boats,, and such a structure is a great help
to the time. The structure can't be seen because it is installed
in one of .the buildings. The only part you do see is a single
pole with a single antenna. . Possibly there is a generator. : After
looking around the Telephone-Company found this to be the best
location.

west and an equal amount to the east.
THE CHAIRMAN: SDoes the park-have any other installations that
: are on the park district?

this. location satisfactory.

EUGENE MAZZAFARRO: I have no interest in this application, I

to it.
WILLIAM WICKHAM,ESQ. : It was just: a name given to the park.
EUGENE MAZZAFARRO: Was it ever dedicated?
'WILLIAM'N1CKHAM,ESQ. : No it was just named as a siteffor the
veterans after the war.
EUGENE MAZZAFARRO: It doesn't seem right to put- an operation
like this in, a park that was named for veterans.
WILLIAM WICKHAM,ESQ.: This is a public service as the use of the
park is,; for people who want to use it. For the people who enjoy
boating.
EUGENE MAZZAFFARO:. This is going to accept. calls?
WILLIAM WICKHAM,ESQ.: Nothing is accepted here. It.. is a
relay station
THE 'CHAIRMAN: This will be a help to the park association.

don-'$:;t'think anything commercial should be on this property.

The, Cha:irman opened the hearing by reading application for
spe.c.ial exception, legal notice of hearing, affidavit attesting
to its publication in the official newspaper, and notice to the
applicant.
THE' CHAIRMAN: is there anyone present who would like to speak
in favor of this application?
MRS. HOUSNER: We are asking for' this to get an un-named tenant
for this .place.
THE 'CHAIRMAN: The first tenant- was .Crabtree, after 'Kaelin.
MRS. HOUSNER: We had a party from Greenport that was going to
move in there.
THE CHAIRMAN: That is what caused some of the difficulty. They
didn't have a very diesirable business. I think they were body and
fender men. There is a dwelling on this peoperty, is this occupied
now?
MRS. HOUSNER: No,,. this residence has never' be rented except
when the showroom was being used. This man that used to watch the
showroom lived in the house.
THE'CHAIRMAN: There was someone there when we looked at. it.
MRS. HOUSENER: There Emas a tenant there for a short time. I
am more interested in the business than the rental of the house.
THE CHAIRMAN: This is all zoned business?
MRS. HOUSNER: Yes.
THE `CHAIRMAN: Doesn't part of this encroach on .the line?
MRS.' HOUSNER: I don't know. I really don't understand that.
THE- CHAIRMAN: Part .of this building is within eight- inches of
the county line. Is that why Crabtree-O'Keeffe didn't- take the
property?
MRS. HOUSNER: They were going to open up in the spring of the
year, then Mr. O'Keeffe felt that 'he wasn''t wanted in Southold.
Southold Town Board of. Appe _a -26- June 25, l>:,
THE"CHAIRMAN: I think the Board may have been 'in error
when they first -granted granted this application.However, our
Ordinance requires a special exception forea public garage. When
we..granted this the first time, we put certain restrictions on
it.
MRS. HOUSNER: We accepted your decision on that.
THE 'CHAIRMAN: I think this should be granted without reference
to the type of business.
n MRS. HOUSNER: We want -an un-named tenant.
THE 'CHAIRMAN: The un-named tenant is to use the place- as a
public garage is that right?
MRS. HaUSNER: Yes.
THE CHAIRMAN: I think you should move that house off the
property.
Is there anyone present- who would like to speak- against this
application?
I There was no response. )
After investigation and inspection the Board finds that
Josephine Housner has property in Southold which has been used
as a garage. Now she again. has tenants for -the property, however
she is requestingthat this property may be used by other and
new tenants if the opportunity arises. This will now,-be used
for the sale and service of farm trucks, tractors;,, and other
relative vehicles,. and the sale and service of industrial equipment.
The Board finds that these buildings were on the premises prior
to the Zoning Ordinance for the sale and service of farm machinery.
This is in a "B" Business' District were public garages are permitted
by a special exception from the Board of Appeals. The Board finds
that is better to grant this without-naming a certain tenant.
The Board finds that the public convenience and welfare and
justice will be served and the legally established or permitted
use of neighborhood property and adjoining use districts will not
-be permanently or substantially injured and the spirit of. the
Ordinance will be observed.
