PRESENT: Jerome Fine, Chairman Costas Boumis John Morabito Mary Galgano George Fitzpatrick ABSENT: Frank Paolontonio Juan Pujadas ALSO PRESENT: James Margotta, Building Inspector Robert Spencer, Village Attorney Chairman Fine called the meeting to order at 8 P.M. and stated the purpose of the meeting was to discuss the application of Elizabeth Akin. Robert W. Spencer, Village Attorney, advised the Board that the New York State Supreme Court vacated the granting of the Akin area variance. The Planning Board approved the sub-division of Lots 1 and 8, subject to the granting of the area variance by the Zoning Board of Appeals. The Court ruled that the grant of the variance must be rejected because the applicant applied for an interpretation of the Zoning Law, not an area variance. Hence, the Board lacked jurisdiction to grant the area variance. Mr. Sam Watkins, Attorney for Elizabeth Akin, presented information regarding the application for an area variance for lot 1. Lot 1 on the survey contains 13,569 square feet (15,000 square feet is required). Mr. Watkins stated that Mrs. Akin is presently in a nursing home and is represented by her son William D. Akin through Power of Attorney. Mr. Watkins made a presentation in favor of the variance. (Copy of Mr. Watkins statement is attached in official minutes.) Mr. Edmund Stoecklein, resident of Sleepy Hollow Manor and a member of the Sleepy Hollow Manor Taxpayers Association, stated his objections to the granting of the area variance, and asked that the Board deny the request for an area variance. (Copy of Mr. Stoecklein's statement is attached in official minutes.) Mr. Watkins and Mr. Stocklein agreed that the evidence �Vv ' be granted. He felt it was not the intention of the owners to keep it a green area and felt it was up to the residents of the area to buy and maintain it as a green area. He felt the Village should allow this property to be buildable. * After a discussion, Mr. Bounds moved, seconded by Mr. Morabito, that an area variance be granted for Lot 1, as requested by Elizabeth Akin, owner of said property. Carried unanimously. There being no further business to come before the Board Mr. Fitzpatrick moved, seconded by Mr. Morabito, that the same be duly adjourned. Carried unanimously.
