Mr. Margotta stated that he will not issue building permits on a piecemeal basis for this project and reminded Mr. Turnquist that he was to have provided a full set of drawings for the repairs.

Carried. 4. 107 Devries Avenue - Continued. Mr. Fitzgerald represented the owners of 107 Devries Avenue. Mr. Fitzgerald stated that there is a five foot fence around the back of 107 Devries Avenue. He stated that he had observed upwards of 70 fences in Philipse Manor, of various types, including stockade fences, and had several photos he wished to have made as part of the application. He stated that since the fence had already been erected and since it was in keeping with the fences in Philipse Manor, it should be approved. Mr. Falasca moved, seconded by Mr. McCarthy, to open the meeting for public comments. Carried. Mr. Frank Bateman, a neighbor, stated that he was aesthetically opposed to the fence. He stated that there is a question of a survey; that the fence was jagged; not aesthetic. He stated that there were several pickets that were broken. He also stated that a dog is chained to a tree on the property line, and believed that the owners had shown a lack of respect by putting up this fence without going through the correct process. Ms. Joanne Becker, a neighbor, stated that she had followed all the regulations, had applied for zoning variances, gone before the tree commission and followed the public process. She stated that the contractor-owner of this property just did as he pleased without trying to build a consensus with the neighborhood and put up.an.ugly, fence, without following the public process. Mr. Bateman stated that neither the issue of variances or the tree ivtnoval permit had been addressed. Mr. Fitzgerald stated that there were no irregularities in the fence. He stated that there were some repairs to be made. Mr. Fitzgerald acknowledged that there had been no prior approval and that the owners did not do what was proper, but the issue, as he saw it, was whether the fence as it stands was 'approvable'. Mr. Fitzgerald also stated that there was no building permit, but pointed to the photos stating that the fence was in no way detrimental. As to the survey, he stated the property was surveyed upon purchase of the property by the corporation. Mr. Nazemetz moved, seconded by Mr. McCarthy, to close the meeting to public �comments. Carried. Ms. Fin#stated that the craftsmanship was careless, it was terrible, and it was designed poorly. The application did not go through the process - it was a done deal. She stated that a neighborhood gives and takes, and everything is considered in the process. This fence and the way it was done is completely unacceptable. Ms. Piomelli stated that the issue was not just the Code as interpreted by the consumer, and that is why there is an arbitration process. She stated that there is also an aesthetic concern which could not be addressed by the Code Book. Her opinion of the fence is that the construction is deplorable, there was no design involved, no attempt was made to make this fence gracious in any way, and that she could not approve this as it was done. Mr. McCarthy made suggestions to make this approvable by having the applicant do the following: correct the jagged top so that it meets the bottom properly; fix the pickets; where the fence meets the tree to step the fence back so that it stays on the client's property, and stain the fence gray or brown. Mr. Fitzgerald stated that lowering the fence to the lowest point on the property and scribing the fence to follow the property would mean a two foot drop or more, since the lowest point of the property is in the front, which would make this a three foot fence in the back. Making this a very low fence in the back and the way this fence was put up in sections, and the ground slopes in the front to the back. The fence has already weathered and is starting to look gray. Mr. Fitzgerald said he* could not recommend moving the fence back around the tree as it may cause the client title problems in the future. Mr. Nazemetz read into the record a letter from Robert and Julie Anello, which letter is attached hereto and incorporated herein by reference. Mr. Nazemetz made a motion? to approve »s submitted and built. .There wereJio seconds, Mr. Barstow stated that he believed that if the application had been properly submitted on drawings that the Board would not have been opposed to a stockade fence. The issue is not that this is a stockade fence, but there is an issue of workmanship. This fence could have been built better. It is a little haphazard. It could have been done better around the tree. The good side of the fence does nice the neighbors and they did not have to do that. Ms. Fin^stated that the Fremont fence, a white fence, was too high and had to be brought down and they put some shrubbery in front of it to disguise the "whiteness". The wrong thing was done and changes were made to make it better. Ms. Piomelli asked why couldn't the owner hire a professional to see what could be done to make this better. �MJ. rin^made a motion to deny the application, seconded by Mj$ NazemcLz. Carried. Mr. Margotta will send a 30-day notice to 107 Devries Corporation. MINUTES Mr. Nazemetz moved to approve the minutes of the meeting held on May 27,1998, by those members present. Ms. Aloia seconded. Motion carried. Mr. Nazemetz moved to approve the minutes of the field meeting held on June 2,1998. Ms. Aloi^Jseconded. Motion carried.

Respectfully submitted, Irene Amato Acting Clerk �*Y > f tft'" Robert and Julia Anello 114 Merlin Avenue Sleepy Hollow, New York 10591 Architectural Review Board Sleepy Hollow, New York (0? April 22,1997 Re: Fence, Devries Avenue Dear Board Members; We are happy that the ARB is reviewing this backyard fence and disappointed that we cannot attend the meeting this evening. We do not mind a fence in general but this particular one has two problems: 1. It is ugly. It looks like a fort. 2. Although it is very tall, it cannot contain the American Pit Bull Dog who belongs to one of the three unrelated tenants who rent the house. This dog is able to jump over this fence at will, and has on many occasions come to my back door despite the fence. Since this large fence is not tall enough to contain the dog, his owner currently ties up the dog when he is left outside. This can be done with or without a fence. We would be glad to work with the current owners on a more attractive fence design. � Dublin Core The Dublin Core metadata element set is common to all Omeka records, including items, files, and collections.
