than tourist camp minimum(350 sq ft),;or they may want to build some
duplexes. Were advised that subdivision of land is matter for Planning

Mrs Anderson,oiiner of a 50' lot with residence in Mill Colony,
near Sothold Town Beach,has opportunity to purchase adjoining lot of
130' width...O-caner will not sell a lesser width.Question propounded
by Mr, R-.G�Terry Sr:what would be board's attitude:in case- of this kind
where two or more lots are..merged in event 'owner wishes to seals 100.
foot lot from the new. acquisition of 130''.:Board reacted favorably#•
"since owner's original lot would be widened by 30' and thereby improved..
In.general the board seemed to feel that merging of lots did not
imply the original lot held in single and separate ownership before-
enactment of the ordinance had to be increased to 1003xor that the
lot to. be incr-eased from 50 to 80 should in any way be penalized in
future-transactions.A somewhat similar case was discussed,.wheie both
the lot with the house and the adjoining lot on a corner now vacant
are undersized but both lots were in separate ownership before the
enactment of the ordinance. Could the owner of the house on the inside
lot purchase the adjoining empty lot and obtain a permit to build on-
av63' lot..Board reacted favorably.
There was some discussion with reference to issuance of building
permits on 20' lots,as well as question of building permits: to extensions
of non-conforming uses..Minutes of the April 25th Meeting were read and
appro'ved.Meeting adjourned 11130 P.M.
