November 13, 197 3 °l Two public hearings were held before the Zoning Board of Appeals of the Village of North Tarrytown, N.Y. on the above date. Present James Friere, Chairman Peter Esteban James Margotta Thomas Connelly Sante J* Chessari, Counsel Leonard Losier, Building Inspector Chairman Friere called the hearings to order at 8:00 P.M. Counsel Chessari read the first notice of hearing to consider the request of William Williams, 107 Cortlandt Street, for relief on appeal from a decision of the Building Inspector in denying a permit on applicant's proposal to erect a one rear room addition of approximately 723 sq. ft and for (1) a variance from the provisions of Section 62-14, Subsection E on-site parking requirements that there be 1.2 parking spaces for each apartment or a total of 7.2 parking spaces; and (2) for a variance from the provisions of Section 62-25-A requirements that a nonconforming use or building may not be structurally altered during its life to an extent exceeding in aggregate costs twenty-five percent of the assessed value of the building. Chairman Friere asked if there was anyone present who would like to comment on the requested variance. Mr. Charles Steinberg, of Steinberg £ Tuchman, representing Mr. Williams, stated that his client has lived in the Village for over 25 years. He stated that there are six dwelling units all occupied by members of his family. There are two cars owned by Mr. Williams and one of the residents in the building. The addition is a playroom for use of several grandchildren, said Mr. Steinberg. He stated that the room would be constructed by various members of his family. Mr. Steinberg stated that Section 62-14E-off-site parking, does not apply in this case because it is a non-conforming use. The playroom will not, in any way, bring in people with cars nor in any way interfere with the neighborhood, which is mostly commercial, he said. Mr. Steinberg stated that Mr. Williams will try to conform to the best of his ability and have no off-street parking problem relating to anyone living on his premises. Mr. Steinberg stated that Section 62-25A is not violated and this section does not apply. The estimated expense of the playroom is between $500-$1000. He requested that the decision of the Building Inspector be over-ruled and permission be granted to Mr. Williams to build a playroom. • ; ,^r ^>. i ^ - ^ X ^ ^-5^*-^i.iii'X.s.b.iw.ii £ ^ ^~-L»6£&H£*ri£^3c5Jte&2^*«^^ _ - ^M rl "£*•* �Mr. Margotta stated that the room would have to built according to the Building Code, however, before anything is done Mr. Williams should present a plan. He also questioned whether the one window would provide air ventilation. Mr. Losier stated that it would not for that size room. Mr. Steinberg stated that there would be three windows. Counsel Chessari stated that it has to be understood that in the event that the Board should render a favorable decision, the room being constructed has to conform to the building code. The next step would be to apply to the building inspector for a permit, Mr. John Blalock, Cortlahdt Street, stated that he is in agreement that the extension would conform to the building code so that there will be no hazard. Mr. Losier questioned the figure of 500-1000 for the construction. He stated that he cannot conceive that it could be done for that amount of money; it still has a value. It was stated earlier that materials and labor were being donated by relatives and friends. An affidavit was submitted to the effect that neighbors within a 200 ft. radius were notified of the hearing. No other comments, the hearing was closed. Mr, Friere stated that the Board will render a decision and notify Mr. Williams of same. Counsel Chessari read the second notice of hearing to consider the request of John Minardi, 89 New Broadway, for relief on appeal from a decision of the Building Inspector in denying a permit on applicant's proposal to erect an addition to the existing building on the existing lot containing less than 4,000 sq, ft. and for a variance from the provisions from Section 62-8B, Subsection R-4, paragraph 5 requirement of minimum lot size of 4,000 sq, ft and for a variance from the provisions of said Ordinance of Section 62-8B, Subsection R-4, paragraph 7 side yard requirement of 12 feet on property known on the Tax Assessment map as Section 17, Block 18, Lots 31 S 32. Mr. Friere asked if there was anyone present who would like to comment on the proposed request. Mr. Connelly inquired of Mr. Minardi as to what the estimated cost of the addition would be and was told about $15,000, It was noted that Mr. Minardi submitted an affidavit containing signatures of property owners within 200 feet of his property who were notified of the proposed request for a variance. �I -3No other comments, Mr. Margotta moved, that the hearing be closed, seconded by Mr, Esteban. Carried. Mr. Friere informed Mr. Minardi that he will be notified of the Board's decision.

October 25, 197 3 gt / Three zoning hearings were held before the Board of Trustees of the Village of North Tarrytown, N.Y. on the above date. Present James Friere, Chairman Peter Esteban James Margotta Thomas Connelly Sante J. Chessari, Counsel Leonard Losier, Bldg. Inspector Absent John Arcate Chairman Friere called the hearings to order at 8:00 P.m. and read the first notice of hearing to consider the request of Louis Martin, 179 Beekman Avenue, for relief on appeal from a decision of the Building Inspector in denying a permit on applicant's proposal to erect two signs 8" in thickness and for a variance from the provisions of Section 62-15, Subsection D, paragraph 1 (a) of the Zoning Ordinance and asked if there was anyone present who would like to address the Board. Mr. Abe Zuckerman, Agent who is erecting the sign, submitted receipts to the effect that property owners within a 200 ft. radius were notified of this request for a variance. Mr. Zuckerman stated that he was requesting an additional two inches because the electrical components are too big to go into the sign and therefore, he is asking for an 8" thickness, instead of the required 6". It will not be a flashing sign, said Mr. Zuckerman. Mr, Margotta inquired of Mr. Zuckerman how high off the sidewalk is the sign and was answered 12 - 1U ft. The sign would be flush against the building, he said. There being no further comments, Mr. Margotta move<2, seconded by Mr. Esteban that the hearing be closed. Carried.

Chairman Friere stated that Mr. Esteban was disqualifying himself on this variance. Chairman Friere asked if there was anyone present who would like to address the Board on this request.

'-.^-'.-> ,\ ~. :- Counsel Chessari stated that the application is for the addition of one apartment and there will be no business there. The zoning ordinance does not permit a business on that lot, he said. Mr. Connelly inquired of Mr. Martone as to why he brought the inuendo before the Board that it would be used for business. Mr. Martone stated that the neighbors just wanted to find out if it would be used for business. Mr. Gonzalez presented a lease signed by Mrs. Julia Slagle that two parking spaces would be available to Mr, Gonzalez in her back yard and also gives Mr. Gonzalez the option of renting two additional spaces in the event he needs them for his tenants• When asked by Mr. Margotta if this was at one time a four family house, he answered "Yes". * Mr. Martone inquired-if Mrs. Slagle should sell her property after the termination of the five year lease, what would happen. ;.

It was up to the Board to grant parking onsite or off-site, he said. The variance would still continue on, said Counsel. Mr. Louis Tucci, Jr., 8 Francis Street, stated that there does not seem to be much room for parking in Mrs. Slagle's lot. Mr. Gonzalez stated that there was a small shed in the corner of the lot which was taken down which will give an additional parking space and an old car which was abandoned on the lot will be removed. Mr. Gonzalez presented receipts to the effect that people within a 200 ft. radius were notified of his request for a variance.

(i) There already exists J a non-conforming^use .as referred to by the building inspector in"his denial'of the building permit insofar as 7.2-parking spaces are required for the six (6) families occupying,the building; (ii) Appellant does not own sufficient 5 property to cause such non-conforming use to conform; . : . ? , - �(iii) Because of the physical structure existing on the property it would be impossible at this date to provide the parking required by the Zoning Ordinance; (iv) The proposed addition will not in any manner further extend the non-conforming use as to parking; (v) Without the proposed variance Appellant cannot improve his property for the benefit of himself and his family, including grandchildren, nieces and nephews. 3. Because of the aforesaid alleged facts, Appellant pe- titions the Board of Appeals, in acting on this appeal, to vary the strict application of the aforesaid provisions of the Zoning Ordinance to said property to the following specific extent; to permit the construction of an addition to the building of approximately 723 square feet without complying with the parking requirements of 1.2 spaces for each family or 7.2 spaces in the aggregate. Alternatively, Appellant petitions the Board of Appeals to hold that because the cost of the proposed addition will not exceed 2 5 % of the assessed value of the building the Building Inspector had no authority in denying Appellant's application for a building permit. �Attached hereto are: A. Application to Building Inspector for Building Permit. B. 4. Preliminary plans and lot layout. Appellant further alleges that such variance would be in harmony with the general intent and purpose of the Zoning Ordinance and would not be injurious and detrimental to property or persons in the neighborhood, for the following reasons: (i) The non-conforming use already exists and will not be extended by the proposed*addition; (ii) The approval of the requested variance will tend to promote the health, safety, morals and general welfare of the community by providing the children with an area in which to play and in encouraging the improvement of property for such purpose; . (iii) It would not increase congestion in the streets or be inconsistent with any of the other provisions of the Zoning Ordinance.

Chairman Friere asked if there was anyone present who would like to address the Board on the proposed variance. Mr. William Onderdonk, 157 Millard Avenue, read a statement opposing thevvariance. He stated that the erection of an addition would be unsightly. The proposed addition will impair the esthetic qualities of a house among the choicest in the community, said Mr. Onderdonk. Mr. Mace Alter, 162 Kelbourne Avenue, stated that he felt that the building would be an encroachment on his privacy. He stated that since the permit has already been denied, it should justly stay. He also stated that the addition would be an eyesore contrary to the area. Mr. Ronald Kase, 174 Millard Avenue, stated that he has a clear view of the proposed construction and has no objection to it. He stated that he does not think it would effect the neighborhood or appearance of the street. He had no objection at all. Mr. George Rappole, 162 Millard Avenue, stated that he has been assured by Dr. DiBianco that a qualified architect has been engaged for this construction and believed that it would be in good taste and would not interfere with his rights even though he has a clear view of his property. Mr. Rappole stated by Dr. DiBianco. He put Mr. Rappole and the same simple structure. He is that the property is excellently maintained in a great deal of thought and care, said thought and care would be applied to the in favor of the variance, said Mr. Rappole. Mr. Alter stated that Mr. Onderdonk and himself border the same property line of Dr. DiBianco.

What Dr. DiBianco is asking for is not to add a second story, but for approximately 3 1 / 2 - 4 feet. Mr. Arcate inquired as to what type of roof will be installed. Mr. Wild stated a gable roof, or if the Board wants, a flat roof. �-3Mr. Wild presented a certified affidavit that notices were sent to surrounding property owners. » Mr. Robert Pollard, 17H Kelbourne Avenue, stated that his own feeling alone, he would not oppose, however, Mr. Onderdonk's point of view is the one with the most objection. He stated that he had envisioned a higher addition, however, the way he sees it now, he personally does not object to it. Dr. DiBiahco stated that a lot of though7~was put into this. He felt that this addition on the garage would be the least conspicuous construction and woulci serve their needs. No other comments, Peter Esteban moved, seconded by James Margotta that the hearing be closed.

Mr. Losier stated that the existing porch is non-conforming under the present code as it stands. To enlarge it, they would need an additional three feet, he said. The plot plan we are looking at this evening is not accurate. Mr, A. Nicolai, owner of the adjacent property to Mr. Matarasso, read a statement whereby he opposed the requested variance of six feet. He stated in his statement that he would be willing to let him install a side porch, four feet wide. Mr. Matarasso stated that the porch is"rotting and in danger of collapse.

Mr. Friere instructed Mr. Corona to submit this affidavit to the Clerk as soon as possible. Mr. Antonio Carrozzi, owner of 124 Depeyster. St., stated that he opposed the variance because he alleges that the.porch will be an encroachment of six inches on his property and that it would block out the light to his basement window. �Mr, Margotta stated that we could not grant a variance which would allow an encroachment on his property. No other comments, Mr. Arcate moved, seconded by Mr. Esteban that the hearing be closed. Carried. Mr. Friere stated that the applicant will be notified of the Board's decision by mail.

Mr. Friere asked if there was anyone present who would like to address the Board on this request for a variance. Mr. Ralph Bettman, appearing in behalf of Mr. Triono, stated that the property is zoned to permit three family residence and the property, at one time, was used as a three family residence. The use should not be in question. He stated that there is a use variance and area variance. This is not a use variance, therefore, use should not be in question. A three family use .was permitted. He stated that the west side setback is non-conforming. The front setback appears to be average permitting use of fifteen feet, which he has. He is not decreasing the non-conformity. Mr. Bettman stated that the zoning ordinance is not being violated as to use or area. Non-conforming use or building may not be structurally altered during its life, unless such building is changed to a conforming use. Variance in effect is not necessary, said Mr. Bettman. Mr. Bettman submitted an affidavit containing signatures of surrounding property owners. Mr. Friere questioned Mr, Bettman about the parking of cars and Mr. Bettman stated that he will put in parking units. Mr. Margotta stated that the cars will have to be a certain distance from the house. Mr, Bettman stated that he can put in three parking units, however, he would need a variance of .6.

Y. April 17, 1973 A hearing was held before the Zoning Board of Appeals of the Village of North Tarrytown, New York, on the above date. Present: James Friere, Chairman James Margotta Peter Esteban Sante J. Chessari, Counsel Leonard Losier, Building Inspector Absent: John Arcate David Page Present: Mr. and Mrs. George Gallinger Chairman Friere called the hearing to order at 8 p.m. Counsel Chessari read the notice of hearing to consider the request of George Gallinger, 12 Maple Street, North Tarrytown, for relief on appeal from a decision of the Building Inspector in denying a permit on applicants' proposal to construct a one-family dwelling, and for variance from the provisions of Section 62-8 (B) of the Zoning Ordinance requirement that there be fifteen (15) feet side yard clearance. The property is located at 71 Sleepy Hollow Road, and is known as Section 17, Block 6, Lot 12 of the Tax Assessment Map of the Village of North Tarrytown. Mrs. Anne Petry, owner of one of the adjacent lots stated that she and her husband object to the variance. She inquired as to why have a zoning ordinance if you do not adhere to it. The neighborhood will be too crowded, said Mrs. Petry. Land is becoming more and more scarce, she said. Mr. Margotta stated that basically the structure is located all right; the question is the overhang of the roof. The Building Inspector stated that he will ask for an interpretation of the ordinance after the hearing, which says that any part ot the building should be fifteen feet for both side yard. Several questions have arisen whereby people have extended the side yard with an overhang of eighteen inches. An exception is made for the front yard and there is no exception for the side yard, said Mr. Losier. �-2- April 17, 1973 Mr. Gallinger stated that to reduce the overhang would damage the appearance of the house. His house is one-story low ranch. Mr* Margotta inquired if the architect drew the plans from our code and he was told by Mr. Gallinger that it was assumed under the Town of Mount Pleasant Code until they realized the error. Mr. Peter Dunicah, 75 Sleepy Hollow Road, stated that he owns the property adjacent to Mr. Gallinger and had just planted shrubbery and hoped that equipment would not damage his shrubbery. There being no further comments to come before the hearing, Chairman Friere advised Mr. Gallinger that the matter will be studied further and he will be notified of the board's decision. Mr. Esteban moved, seconded by Mr. Margotta, that the hearing be adjourned. Carried. Respectfully submitted, Filomena Fallacaro Clerk The Building Inspector asked for an interpretation of the side yard requirement. After discussion, it was concluded that by definition of yards, an unoccupied space open to the sky, on the same lot with a building or structure so that a side yard would be measured from the outside dimensions of a structure to include eaves or cornices would be used in determining side yard requirements.

Present: James Friere, Chairman Peter Esteban James Margotta John Arcate Leonard Losier, Bldg. Inspector Applicant: Maryann Gasko Absent: David Page Chairman Friere called the hearing to order at 8 p.m. Counsel Chessari read the notice of hearing, after which Chairman Friere asked if there was anyone present who would like to comment on the hearing. • • * Mr. Arthur Freed, Traffic Engineer Department of Public Works, stated that a permit was issued by the County to Mr. Gasko subject to the following conditions: 1. Turn-around on property; 2. Grading to property line; 3. Continuation of road profile from edge of pavement to the property line; 4. Width not to exceed 20r - 0"; 5. Start of driveway not to be less than 51 0" from transverse property line. Mr. Freed stated that he has not received anything from the applicant. Mr. Peter Eschweiler, Commissioner, Department of Planningj produced photos of other homes in Thornwood;whose situation is the same as Gasko's. In an inspection of the property, said Mr. Eschweiler, there was nothing in the physical nature of this insight which would have prevented him to install a turn-around. I * ' Mr. Robert Segelbaum, attorney for the applicant, stated that there were no other driveways on this section of the County road with turn-arounds on their property. He stated that his clients advised him that there �-2- April 10, 1973' has been a representative from the Department inspecting the work and they have not heard anything from the Department that they have not been complying. The requirement would be an undue necessary requirement on his client, said Mr. Segelbaum. He stated that his client cannot comply w'i'th this requirement because of the topography and rock on the property which necessitated the location of the house where it was built. Mr. Eschweiler stated that there is a feasible way of developing the turn-around without an amount of disturbance to the property. It is still feasible to comply with the requirement. Mr. Gasko stated that if his funds were unlimited as is the County's then he would be able to do it. He has complied with most of the conditions, he said. He stated that the gravel on the driveway was placed there to keep the mud down. The turn-around has caused this delay, he said. Mr. Gasko stated that the County inspector was there at least once, a week and is well aware of what was done on the property. Mr. Margotta inquired of Mr. Freed as to how does he account for other houses on the road with no turn-around, and was answered that the law went into effect in 1958 but was enforced in 1962 or 1963. On a question by John Arcate if a turn-around was in existence, as to whether or not it would be a traffic violation to back out, he was answered yes by Mr. Freed. Mr. Segelbaum stated that he hoped the board would modify the requirement. Mr. Freed stated that if this is so, we would have to transfer the County's problem to the Village if this is the feeling of this board. Following a discussion, John Arcate moved, seconded by James Margotta that since it would be no undue hardship, we reserve decision at this time. At this time, a Mr. Seligsohn, attorney for Mr. and Mrs. Walter Ashley, asked for permission to speak to the zoning board. He stated that he understands that surrounding neighbors'had made an appeal to the zoning board for a hearing from the issuance of a building permit to his clients. , Mr. Seligsohn stated that he is requesting dismissal of the appeal on the grounds that the appeal is untimely as;a matter of law and may not be entertained. He stated that the building permit was;issued by the Building Inspector on November 28, 1972 and notice of appeal was filed April 4, 1973, more than four months after the issuance of the building permit. �-3- April 10, 1973 Mr. Seligsohn stated that the appellants knew exactly what was coming up. The Sleepy Hollow Manor Taxpayers Association approved the plans on November 15, 1972, he said. Mr. Seligsohn stated that he had advised Mr. Maroney that he was going to appear this evening and he had personnaly served a copy on each and everyone of the appellants of the notice of application. He stated that once a building permit is issued it has a vested right and cannot be taken away. It is absolutely beyond challenge, he said. In summarizing, Mr. Seligsohn stated that there is no merit to this appeal. There is nothing to support that the Building Inspector made an error. He stated that the board should dismiss this appeal and advise these people that it cannot be entertained because it is untimely. Mr. Friere stated that Mr. Maroney had called him stating that they were not given enough time and he had agreed over the telephone that the board could meet some time next week to hear their complaint. This was only an informal meeting, said Mr. Friere. Counsel Chessari stated that the appellants were served with a notice that this would be on the agenda this evening. Mr. Arcate stated that a phone call would not be a way of getting a postponement. Following a discussion, the board recessed. Mr. Peter Estebanfmoved, ^seconded5by/James Margotta that the appeal of Mr. & Mrs.; Johri'H. Millar, Mr. & Mrs. Thomas M.Maroney,arid Mr. & Mrs. Donald Garcia from the issuance^of a building permit at 23 Pokahoe Drive,(North Tarrytown,jN.

Dear Mr# LoCurto: At a special Meeting of the Zoning Board of Appeals held on April 5, 19739'.-Peter Esteban moved, seconded by James Margotta that Philipseburg Manor Estates' request for two separate purchasers and two separate certificates of occupancy on a two family house known and designated on Village map of North Tarrytown as Section 17, Block 1, Lot 1A3 be denied. Carried Unanimously* Sincerely, Filomena Fallacaro Clerk �DECISION ON APPLICATION OF • • - PHILIPSBURG MANOR ESTATES, INC. Applicant has requested an interpretation of the Zoning Ordinance from the Zoning Board of Appeals as to whether a two-family house in a two-family zone can be sold'to two separate purchasers with two separate Certificates of Occupany being issued by the Village. In his Memorandum of Law in support of the application, which was submitted to this Board at the hearing, applicant requested the following: 1. Permission to build two one-family houses with common wall, instead of one two-family house. 2. Waiving 4,000 square foot requirement for each lot on which these two one-family houses will be built. 3. Waiving three (3) foot side-yard requirement where common wall will be built. 4. Interpretation as to whether or not a two-family house in a two-family zone can be sold as two separate families (sic). At the hearing a qualified real estate broker and appraiser stated that the house presently allowed to be built would have to sell for $85,000.00, ostensibly in order to provide the necessary profit for the builder. He stated that in order to do this and obtain a one-third mortgage, a prospective purchaser would have to put down $25,000 to $28,000 in cash and obtain a $57,000 to $60,000 mortgage. The income of such a purchaser would have to be approximately $22,000 per year and that these financial requirements would be extremely J\a,rd to meet, the result of which would be to cause the applicant an economic hardship. Alternative �ly, two one-family, houses would each sell for about $42,500.00, with the obvious effect of changing the above stated figures and reducing them by one-half. For all of the reasons which will be stated herein, although applicant has proposed a novel use for his property, the application for a variance is denied. Regarding variances, the zoning ordinance §62-40 (c) Variances states that when."extreme narrowness, shallowness or shape of a specific lot,, or by reason of exceptional topographic conditions or other extraordinary and exceptional situation or condition pertaining to such.lot", where strict application of zoning law would cause "peculiar and exceptional practical difficulties to, or exceptional and undue hardship upon," the owner, the Zoning Board of Appeals may grant a variance. (See also "Required find- ings for Variance", p. 6259 Code of North Tarrytown) Applicant's situation has nothing to do with the land itself, but rather with the market value of the house which he set out to build. The statute does not deal with variances for relief of the pressures of the housing market. Fulling v. Palumbo, 21 N.Y. 2d 30 (1967), does not apply to the present fact situtation. Fueling involved a lot area problem, the ordinance being changed to require larger square footage in a valid building lot absent a showing by the government that to build on the lot would adversely affect the public health, safety and welfare of the community, and if no such showing is made, the owner v/ould be entitled to relief from the zoning law upon showing he would "suffer a severe . financial loss by the operation of the statute" (at P. 35) Almost all the cases citing Fulling concern the size of lots and their use by the owners. Here the builder has �already been granted an area variance by the Village to build a ' conforming use, and the foundation has been constructed, Nov; applicant seeks relief so that he can better dispose of his property after he has finished construction. It is not the purpose of zoning and the ZBA granting a variance to insure applicant a market for his house by allowing him to create two lots which will be below the minimum square footage allowed in the R-4 district and to create a non-row, non-two family, non-single family dwelling in an area not zoned for such structure. Concerning the request for an interpretation of the ordinance, this is not a contemplated use which the applicant seeks to erect. The zoning regulations define, in §62-4 (P.6209), an attached dwelling or row house. These dwellings are defined as "A dwelling, the walls on two (2) sides of which are in common with the walls of adjoining dwellings and are party or lotline walls." These are not allowed in the R4 districts. Technically, the structure which applicant wishes to build is not a row house as defined because only one side of one dwelling is attached to the wall of one adjoining dwelling. The Zoning Board of Appeals does not have the power to grant a variance in the present case. -Applicant here has received one area variance on the front and rear yards already. a conforming use on a conforming lot. He started to build Now he seeks a use and another area variance to build a nonconforming use on substandard lots, which use and" lots* he wants to'create' out of an already, conforming use and lot. Technically^ a nonconforming use or lot is one which does not meet present zon^n? staMatfds-, £>ut which was valid under �prior zoning ordinances. The nonconformance arises by the legislative alteration of the zoning ordinances. (§62-4, P. 6212) Under §62-40 and in light of the demands of applicant, and upon reading * * Anderson on Zoning §18.14, §18.15, §18.21, it would not be in the ZBA's power to"grant a use variance. An act of the Village Board would be more proper and lawful. For all of the above stated reasons the application for a variance is denied, and it is the interpretation of this board that the building which applicant proposes to build is a row house, which cannot be built in a two family zone.

March 13, 1973 <?7 ° Two hearings were held before the Zoning Board of Appeals of the Village of North Tarrytown, N.Y. on the above date. Present James Friere, Chairman Peter Esteban James Margotta Morton Linzer Stephen Bass, Counsel Leonard Losier, Bldg. Insp. Absent David Page Chairman Friere called the hearing to order at 8:00 P.M. and read the notice of hearing on the request of Maryann Gasko for relief on appeal from a decision of the Building Inspector and the V/estchester County Department of Public V/orks imposing as a special condition for property having frontage on a County road the requirement that there be a driveway turn-around, and for a removal of this special condition pursuant to General Municipal Lav;, Section 239K on property known and designated on Village map as Section 17, Block 6, Lot 2. Mr, John Gasko stated that he had begun construction on his house when he had learned of this stipulation. He stated that no other home on the street has this turn-around. This turn-around would take up all his front yard, said Mr. Gasko, Mr, Gasko stated that he had applied for relief from the County and was told that they do not have the authority; that it was up to the local Zoning Board to give this relief, which he is requesting now. Counsel Bass explained Section Law and also read a letter from the March 15, 1972. He stated that the if it wishes, to remove the special 239K of the General Municipal Dept. of Public V/orks dated Zoning Board has the authority, condition. Following a short discussion, Mr. Friere informed Mr. Gasko that a decision will be made within a day or two and he would be notified of the results. Mr. Friere read the notice of hearing to5consider the request of Philipseburgh Manor Estates for an interpretation of the Zoning Ordinance as to whether a two family house in a two family zone can be sold to two separate purchasers with two separate ^certificates of occupancy being issued on property known and designated on Village map as Section 17, Block 1, Lot 1A3. �Mr. Roy Letsin, attorney for Philipseburg Manor Estates submitted a certified copy of notice served to surrounding property owners affected by the application of Philipseburg Manor. Counsel inquired if there would be any change in the construction of the property. Mr. Letsin stated that the only change was that the builder has permission to build a two family house. He stated that one of the reasons he is asking for this change is that he would have to sell the presently authorized two family houses at $85,000, however, two one family houses would sell for about $42,500. Mr. Letsin stated that it would be easier to find a buyer for a one family house than it is for a two family house. Mr. Letsin stated that this is an economic hardship on the applicant. Mr. Edward Malone, 44 Dell Street, stated that the applicant is not asking for a variance; he is asking for a subdivision. He stated that he does not have the footage for two separate buildings. This is not a hardship, he said. Mr. Arthur Cosgrove, Real Estate Broker and certified appraiser with offices at 16 3 North Broadway, Yonkers, stated that he is wellacquainted \7ith the propert in North Tarrytown and it was his professional opinion that in order to sell a two-family duplex dwelling of this type the price would be $85,000. From experience of this type of building would be extremely difficult to sell and would be an economic hardship, said Mr. Cosgrove. Mr. Cosgrove stated that if the houses were sold separately as a single one-family duplex dwelling, they would sell for approximately $42,500. This would considerably widen the selling market. Counsel Bass stated that it must be shown as.the ordinance applies to the property if the health, welfare and safety would be adversely affected by two owners. Mr. Letsin pointed out that the courts have upheld the decisions of the local boards where an economic hardship exists, Mrs. Marcia Arcate inquired if this would apply to all duplex houses"in the Village and thereby permitting to split these houses. Mr. James Timmings, 119 Rice Avenue, inquired if we are creating a new problem for the Village. He asked that with two individual owners, are we asking for a lot of problems here in the.operation of the Village with people coming forward with problems that two owners cannot solve between themselves. �Mrs. Claudio Roguzin agreed with Mr. Malone and objected to two separate owners. Following a discussion, Mr. Friere stated that the" Board'will meet and discuss the matter in detail with the Attorney and will notify the applicant of their decision. Respectfully submitted, Clerk EXECUTIVE SESSION A discussion was held regarding the request of Maryann Gasko "and following discussion, Peter Esteban moved, seconded by James Margotta that she be granted a variance eliminating the requirement for a turn-around as required by the Dept. of Standards, County of Westchester on her property known arid designated on Village map as Section 17, Block 6, Lot 2. � Dublin Core The Dublin Core metadata element set is common to all Omeka records, including items, files, and collections.
