Mr. Walsh advised that all of the principals of Country Manor Homes were present to answer any questions. He stated that they had been before the Planning Board and were referred here. Mr. Walsh gave a brief analysis of the project and advised that they tried to come up with a design that tries to pick up concepts of a smaller, more affordable type house within a two-building arrangement • -2- �and at the same time, tries to pick up something that's compatible with the neighborhood. He also outlined some of the concerns of the Board - screening, landscaping, parking. Mr. Dominick Angello addressed the Hearing regarding the content of the drawings. He stated that he is one of the principals of Country Manor Homes. Mr. Angello stated that there is proposed 16 living units, 12 one-bedroom units and 4 two-bedroom units. He advised that the units would sell for approximately $150,000. Mr. Angello stated that, after talking with the Town, they came up with the idea of indoor parking. He stated that they came up with 26 spaces, some indoors, for 16 units. After being questioned by Mr. Maceyak, Mr. Angello advised that it would be frame construction. Mr. Sean Tracey expressed concern about the number of units and the effect on parking. Mr. Angello stated that the number of units was negotiable, as was the whole package. Mr.. Nevado Pirres also expressed concern about the number of units and the close proximity of the project to his house. Mr. Walsh advised that they were within the code as far as distance from his house and that he would urge his clients to discuss with Mr. Pirres something appropriate in terms of walling or screening to insure his privacy. Diane Martelli expressed concern regarding a retaining wall which exists on her property. Mri Walsh assured her that they will make certain that it stays a retaining wall and if necessary, they will rebuild her wall as part of their wall. Mr. Walsh stated that they will have their landscaper work with her on that. �After being questioned by Mr. Pirres, Mr. Walsh advised that there will be no access to the project through North Washington Lane; the only access will be through Pocantico Street. Mr. Albert F. Martin asked the height of the building. Mr. Angello advised that it would be about 33 feet - from the curb, it will be about 37 feet high. Mr. Walsh stated that they are permitted 45 feet under the Code. Mr. Martello questioned the width of the driveway and was advised by Mr. Angello that it will be 24 feet, which is intended to meet the requirements of the Planning Board. Mr. Martello also asked if there would be a fire hydrant on the property and whether there would be a rear entrance to serve as a fire escape. Mr. Walsh advised that that is up to the determination of the Fire Department. Mr. Tracey again expressed concern about the number of units and asked if the principals would go for 14 units. Mr. Rocco Martello stated that the biggest concern of the residents is the parking problem on Pocantico Street. Mr. Carlos Cestoni also expressed the same concern. Mr. Walsh stated that Country Manor Homes was willing to go on record as saying that they would keep the 26 parking spaces, but reduce the density from 16 to 14 units. Frank Paolontonio made a motion to close the Public Hearing. motion was duly seconded and unanimously passed. -4- The �Matter of Colabella Contracting Corp. (Sectxon 17, Block 14, Lots 1, 2, 3 and 4) The three Public Notices were read by the secretary to the Board. Donal M. Walsh, Jr., Esq. advised that he was representing Colabella Contracting and presented the requisite proofs of service and a completed Environmental Assessment Review form prepared for the project. Mr. Walsh advised that based on a concern that the character of the neighborhood would be effected by a recognition of two-family homes on slightly nonconforming lots, they undertook a survey in the neighborhood - Dell Street, Anderson Avenue and Tappan Avenue, and they discovered 29 lots under 4,000 square feet, of which 9 had legal two-family residences. Mr. Walsh stated that one of the concerns of the Board which came up with the earlier application was how to get enough parking on-site to get everything off the street. Mr. Colabello advised that they propose for each family to have their own garage - two garages and get two cars in each. He further stated that the driveway could accommodate guest parking. Mr. Walsh stated that this could be a model-type house for this kind of area. He stated that the proposed subdivision includes the construction of two two-family houses,- and the idea of having extra parking underneath meets the concerns expressed at earlier Hearings. Mr. Walsh indicated that instead of having 4,000 square feet, as required, on one lot they would be just 29 square feet short and on the other, they would be 196 square feet short. �Mr. Dennis Fitzgerald, a resident of the area, addressed the Hearing with his concerns. He suggested that the existing structure be left alone and that one other building be erected, rather than two. Mr. Fitzgerald requested that the Board consider denial totally of the application and allow them to build in conformance with the Code. John J. Hughes, Jr., Esq., Counsel to the Board, read a letter from Mr. Luigi Tucci, a resident of the area, stating his objection to the application. Mr. Walsh responded to the letter. Mr. Dennis Fitzgerald commented that he believes the plan is an affirmative step with respect to the model and the parking, but he felt that two houses should not be put on those lots. A motion was duly made, seconded and passed to close the Public Hearing. BUSINESS SESSION Matter of Joseph Poletti, Lillian Poletti and Frank Greco, 206 North Washington Street, North Tarrytown, New York Frank Paolontonio stated that he thought the lot was awfully small. Steve Maceyak agreed stating they they have almost 90% coverage of the lot and it's 1,450 square feet short of minimum area requirements. Steve Maceyak made a motion to deny the application. was seconded by Frank Paolontonio. The motion The reason for denying the application is that the applicant did not show the special circumstances required by Section 62-40 of the Code and that the applicant, in addition, -6- �did not show that the strict application of the ordinance would deprive them of a reasonable use of the land in that they can stall use the property as a single-family dwelling. 2. Matter of Country Manor Homes, Inc., 48 Pocantico Street, North Tarrytown, New York (Section 15, Block 12, lot 6) Mr. Maceyak stated that he firmly believes that the property should be developed and feels that the plan is basically good, but he has trouble with the density. He stated that a lot of the variances may not be needed if the density was brought down. Aldo Ceconi indicated that they are only 2% off on coverage and questioned why that couldn't be cut down to the right amount - 30%. Dominick Angello stated that they could cover 30. Mr. Angello stated that they are willing to cut down the number of units from 16 to 14 and requested a little give from the Board so that the project could be kept in proportion. Concerning coverage, it was agreed to reduce the coverage from 32% to 30% and, therefore, the variance was denied. Concerning minimum rear yard of 25 feet, it was stated that that would be met by reducing the coverage. A discussion ensued concerning the size of parking spaces. The variance concerning the size of spaces was granted, subject to the Planning Board's determination. A discussion was held concerning the parking spaces in the front of the building. It was agreed to grant this also, subject to the determination of the Planning Board. Mr. Ceconi stated that since they were going to cut down on the number of units, why couldn't the size of the building be cut down. Mr. Walsh agreed that they would reduce the size of the building. -7- �A discussion ensued concerning the size of the building and the parking situation. A motion was made by James Karr that the Board grant 1H units. Motion seconded by Steve Maceyak. Mr. Hughes, Counsel, stated that the motion should state that strict application of the provision deprives the applicant of reasonable use of his property, that the variance is in conformity with the neighborhood and the interest of the neighborhood as a whole and furthermore, that this matter be referred back to the Planning Board so they can undertake the necessary site plan review so that some of the other issues which are presented by the applicant may be resolved. Mr. Walsh advised that they were withdrawing Number 2, which deals with coverage, and also Number 3, which is the minimum rear yard size. The above motion was not carried. Mr. Maceyak moved to grant the variance requested on the following specific terms and conditions: 1). The density variance from section 62-86 of the Zoning Code be granted so that the applicant may construct thirteen (13) dwelling units: 2). The variance from section of the Code be granted so that the applicant may construct two principal buildings on the lot: 3). The variance requested by one Applicant from section of the Zoning Code regarding the size and area of parking spaces be granted, with the final determination left to the Planning Board and its consultants to determine the size and area of all parking spaces on the sate. 4). The variances from the coverage and rear yard setback requirements of the Zoning Code, section 62-86 be denied. (8) �5). The variance as to width of the front yard, section 62-86, be granted. • 6). The variance as to front yard setback, section 62-86, be granted, with the final determination left to the Planning Board and its consultants to determine the appropriateness of this reduced setback. Mr. Maceyak stated that the strict application of these provisions would denyied the applicant of a beneficial use of his property, that the variances granted are in harmony with the interest of the neighborhood. This motion was seconded and carried unanimously. 3. Matter of Colabella Contracting Corp.(Section 17, Block 14, Lots 1,2,3, and ii) Mr. Maceyak stated that under the Code, they could take down the old house and put two two-family houses on the property with attached garages on the sides, in which case the houses could have big basements which might lead to a third family living in the house. He stated that this is why they came up with the parking plan that they did. Mr. Maceyak stated that Dennis Fitzgerald's concerns are valid, that the street is crowded, but he felt that that was the Village's problem, not the builder's. Mr. Maceyak stated that the Village has to address the fact that maybe it should be a one-way street, maybe there should be parking on one side, or maybe there should be a lot more emphasis on people using their driveways. Mr. Maceyak questioned that if they took down the existing garage on the old house, would they be able to provide parking for one family house. He was advised that it would be created in the front. A discussion ensued regarding problems that would arise if the owners / of the existing one-family house requested to make it a two-family house/ -9- �Mr. Walsh advised that there would be a deed restriction. • Mr. Maceyak stated that a lot of the matters brought up have to be addressed by the Planning Board - the runoff on Dell Street, whether the property could support the homes, etc. Steve Maceyak moved that the Board grant the variances and allow the houses to be built. James Karr. The motion was seconded by The motion failed. Aldo Ceconi felt that they should be granted permission to build one-family homes. Mr. Walsh requested that the Board consider one one-family and one two-family home. disagreed. Mr Ceconi Mr. Ceconi stated his opinion that they could put an addition on the existing home, making it two-families, and then build a two-family, for a total of four families, instead of five. He further stated that this could probably be done without coming to the Board. Mr. Walsh requested the Board to consider three one-family houses, the existing house and two neKhouses. had no problem with that. Mr. Maceyak It was stated that it would still be non-conforming as to square footage. Counsel Hughes stated that these are area variances that are being discussed, rather than use. He stated that the area required is 4,000 square feet and none of the lots comply. Mr. Hughes advised that the New York State Law requires that the applicant must demonstrate practical difficulties in terms of an area variance. He further advised that the Village Code says that the applicant must show special circumstances or unique circumstances. -10- �Mr. Walsh stated that the lots are very, very slightly undersized • and requested that the lots be favorably considered. James Margotta advised the Board that they sould keep in mind that these are tax lots, not Village lots, and they are converting them to building lots. Mr. Margotta said that what makes matters worse is that on the existing house, the garage is built right up to the property line. A discussion ensued concerning lot sizes. Mr. Firzgeral stated that he would feel comfortable if the six lots were subdivided into two parcels, one house on each parcel. (the existing and one new). Mr. Walsh again requested the board to favorably consider three one-family houses, which will have parking for eight cars. Mr. Fitzgerald stated that he felt that the need for area variances has not been shown with what was presented. He asked the Board not to allow this variation in Code for the purpose that has been presented, either as to two two-family houses or as to two one-family houses. Mr. Maceyak moved that the Board grant each separate variance on the lots, on the condition that one-family homes be built, that four parking spaces be provided at each residence, that on the existing house where the garage is being taken down; off-street parking be provided for that house. was duly seconded. Mr. Ceconi voted against. The motion The vote was 3 to 1. Mr. Maceyak, on advice of Mr. Hughes, amended the motion to include the fact that the applicant has demonstrated the • requisite practical difficulties in every lot, that being - (It) w. %'- 1: '<£%-'• ••••,;'-••''-- -i»Tir*'- ^ix4^-i~^-,rAw«^ik^Ss^iS^^s&^^»s^ii^^A^^i �Lots 1 and 2, 3 and 4, and 5 and 6, and that the Board feels » that , in granting these area variances, there was minimum deviation of the Code.

Hughes, Village Attorney Chairperson Stephen Maceyak called the meeting to order at 8:00 PM. He announced a new procedure for the Zoning Board. It will now render decisions at the end of each individual hearing, rather than at the end of the all the hearings. He felt that it was unnecessary to have the residents wait until the end of the night to hear what decisions the Board made regarding the requested variances. 1. Matter of Patricia Damin, 14 Dell Street, No. Tarrytown, N. Y. Village Attorney Hughes read aloud the public notice. Chairperson Maceyak asked Ms. Damin for her postal receipts and she presented them to the clerk. She provided the board with a sketch of the addition she planned to put on the house to accommodate her mother who is ill. Questions were asked by members of the board as to why she selected the rear of the house. She responded that the plumbing was located there and it would be cheaper to add the extension on to already exisiting plumbing pipes. A Health Therapist addressed the board on behalf of Ms. Damin, and said it would make life more comfortable for Ms. Damin's mother, if the new addition was allowed to be built at ground level. A motion was made to close the hearing and take a vote. Messers. Buonanno and Ceconi voted no. Vote passed 3-2. Variance granted. 2. Matter of Mark & Barbara Nackman, 279 Farrington Avenue, No. Tarrytown, N. Y. Village Attorney Hughes read aloud the public notice. Chairperson Maceyak asked Mr.Nachman for his postal receipts and he presented them to the clerk. ^^'si^-^sA&i^^iisXs.s^^iiiS-ts^^i^M&mm �-2Mr. Nackman has requested the board to consider an addition to the kitchen. Resident at 275 Farrington addressed the board and said he had no objection to the new addition planned by the Nackmans. However, Dr. Styles, a neighbor of Mr. Nachman's, asked the board as what Mr. Nachman considered his side yard as opposite to his back yard. A architect stepped forward with plans for the new addition, and many questions were raised as to the true scope of the work and what the addition really entailed. After a long discussion a motion was made to close the hearing and it was decided to table the matter until the next zoning board hearing on November 16, 1988. Chairperson Maceyak also asked for clearer plans to be submitted by the architect. 3. Matter of Sebastain Schiavone, 101 & 105 Cortlandt St., No. Tarrytown, N. Y. Village Attorney Hughes read aloud the public notice. Mr. Schavione was represented by Jeanne Mettler, Esq. of 27 North Broadway, Tarrytown, N.Y. She presented the clerk with required postal receipts. Mr. Schiavone stated that a transmission company wanted to rent his building and he was asking for the variance. Questions arose as to the parking requirements and noise factor. The chairperson called for a motion to close the hearing. It was decided to table the request for variance until the next Zoning Board meeting on November 16, and at that time it was suggested that Mr. Schiavone bring along a representative from AAMCO to the hearing. 4. Matter of Enrico Solari, 47 New Broadway, No. Tarrytown, N. Y. Village Attorney Hughes read aloud the public notice. Robert Solari, Mr. Solari's son, presented the clerk with required postal receipts. A letter was read aloud by Chairperson Maceyak from Robert Barstow, opposing Mr. Solari*s request to build an additional dwelling at 47 New Broadway because the existing dwelling on that property is already non-conforming and it would only add to the density problem already existing in Webber Park. The Board questioned the applicant concerning parking conditions and the extent of the additions performed on the existing residence. A motion was passed to close the hearing and a vote taken. The variance was denied on the grounds that the variances, if granted, would create two lots out of one. Should that be permitted, the existing improved lot and the residence thereon would "cover" the lot by 44%, where the Zoning Code required maximum coverage of 35%. The Zoning Board noted that the applicant had undertaken the additions to his own residence on his own initiative. He is new asking to subdivide his premises. The effect of the subdivision would be to create a lot with an improvement hereon where the coverage would exceed 44%. The Zoning Code permits, in the the R-4 Zone, maximum coverage of 35% �-3- The variance was denied, the vote against was unanimous Minutes of the last meeting have not been submitted as yet. be approved at the Meeting on November 16.

Hughes Chairperson Maceyak opened the meeting promptly at 8:00PM. He stated that the meeting would open with old business tabled from tha last Zoning Board Meeting of October 27, 1988. MATTER OF MARK & BARBARA NACKMAN, 279 FARRINGTON AVENUE, NORTH TARRYTOWN, N. Y. Variance tabled from the last meeting. Mr. & Mrs. Nackman were late, and it was suggested by Building Inspector Margotta that the board wait until they arrived to hear their case. He suggested continuing with other old business. MATTER OF SABASTIAN SCHIAVONE, 101 & 105 CORTANDT ST., NORTH TARRYTOWN, N. Y. Village Attorney John Hughes advised the board that Mr. Schiavone withdrew his application for a variance. MATTER OF VINCENT BUONANNO, 20 DELL STREET, NORTH TARRYTOWN, N. Y. Mr. Buonanno has applied for a variance to build a basement apartment in his two family house. (Section 17, Block 1, Lot 12A) The clerk read aloud the public notice. Mr. Donal Walsh represented Mr. Buonanno and Mr. & Mrs. Shibetti, co-owners of the property, and presented the clerk with the required postal receipts. Chairperson Maceyak reported that several letters were received by the board regarding the requested variance. The clerk read aloud 6 letters from surrounding neighbors 5 urging approval and one letter that objected to the request for variance for a number of reasons. 1) area is zoned for 1 and 2 family houses. The house was recently built by the owners with full knowledge of the zoning requirements. Granting the request would allow "spot zoning" for new housing. 2) Did not consider "hardship" a valid reason as any hardship would be self-imposed since the house was constructed under present zoning laws and with full knowledge of the restrictions under those laws. 3) Against the argument that building meets all other requirments for multi-family dwellings (Parking) again, this would create "spot zoning". Mr. Walsh spoke about the issue of re-zoning and about the hardship reason stating the the one of the owner's married daughter and husband were returning to N. Y. to finish their education, and would need somewhere to live. The Board questioned the family as to what would happen to the apartment after the children left and since there are a number of children in both families, the owners felt it would never really be empty. �-2- A vote was taken to close the public discussion and passed unanimously. The Board went into session addressing the Jfacts before them and when a vote to deny the variance was imminent, Mr. Walsh approached the Board and asked to withdraw, without prejudice, the application for variance. He felt that since Mr. Buonnano was not present to answer all the questions the board had, he would ask for a withdrawal. The Board agreed to withdraw the request for variance. MATTER OF Mark & BARBARA NACKMAN, 279 FARRINGTON AVENUE, NORTH TARRYTOWN, N. Y. The Nackman's request for a variance was tabled from last meeting. Mrs. Nackman presented the Zoning Board with another drawing of the proposed addition to the kitchen. In the new drawings, it was clearer to the board as where the new addition would be located, as well as the height of the new building. Dr. Stiles asked about the shed that is on the property presently and Mrs. Nackman responded that the building was on the property when she purchased the house, and it had nothing to with her current request for a variance. Ray Dool made a request to close the hearing and to take a vote. Aldo Ceconi seconded the motion. A motion to grant the variance was made by Ray Dool and seconded by John Cappello. Vote passed unamiously by the Board. MATTER OF FRANK MANGIERI, 15 CHESTNUT STREET, NORTH TARRYTOWN, N. Y. The clerk read the public notice aloud.

A motion to grant the variance was made by James Karr and seconded by Frank Paolontonio. The vote before board was: (1) Section 62-8 (B) requires lot coverage of 30 %.
