1. JANOS VATAI, 106 Pocantico Street
Modification of prior approval
The clerk read the Notice of Public Hearing to hear and consider Janos Vatai's
application for an appeal from the Building Inspector denying a building permit
for the renewal of a commercial unit at the premises located at 106 Pocantico S t ,
North Tarrytown, New York. The premises are located in an R-5 district and
presently contain four apartments and two commercial units. The Schedule of
Regulations, Part I, of the Village Code of North Tarrytown requires a building with
five apartments to have a minimum lot size of 8,000 sq. ft The existing lot has
4,410 sq. ft. The Code does not permit lot coverage to exceed 30%. The actual lot
coverage is 49.5%. The Code requires a minimum of a 25 foot yard setback. The
actual rear yard setback is 14 feet Lastly, the Code requires 9 spaces for the
proposed improvements. The actual number of parking spaces provided is 3. The
premises in question are designated on the Tax assessment maps of the Village of
North Tarrytown as Section 15, Block 13, Lot 43A.
Mr. Robert Barstow, the architect representing Mr. Vatai, came forward and stated
that the reason they were back before the Board was because of one of the 3
conditions given on the December 21,1994 as part of the approval. After reviewing
the conditions, the landlord felt that condition #1 was not possible for him to meet
He explained that he and Mr. Montero were the present tenants and at the present

�time their business was such that they didn't want to expand or pay additional rent.
This left the landlord with a storefront that he couldn't rent. "That's why we would
like to modify the existing approval that was given back in December and see if we
can expand, make the apartment a little bit larger. That is the proposal here
tonight. Eliminate the storefront that was in the existing format and make that
bedroom or living room just a little bit bigger."
Robert Audio asked if the apartment will remain one bedroom.
Mr. Barstow answered "yes, one bedroom."
Mr. Barstow asked Mr. Montero if he had anything to add and Mr. Montero
answered that he agreed with what was said.
Chairman Paolantonio commented that somebody had mentioned the fact that Mr.
Vatai was going to move to the premises. "Assuming that we don't approve this,
where is he going to live?"
Mr. Barstow "This is the apartment that he was proposing to move to. This is the
only apartment available to him".
Discussion followed as to whether Mr. Vatai was going to move into the apartment.
Robert Anello asked Mr. Barstow if he had given the Architectural Review Board
this proposal.
Mr. Barstow answered "No, the first step to do along the line is to come back to the
Zoning Board to find out if they could get this modification and then the
Architectural Review Board.
Gary McLean asked if it was possible to downsize - make one master bedroom and
one child's bedroom.
Discussion on the size of the rooms followed.
Mr. Bastow pointed out that the new plans showed the changes they had made to
meet the conditions previously established.
Chairman Paolantonio pointed out to the Board that they had to vote on what was
shown on the plans.
Chairman Paolantonio asked if anybody from the audience had anything to say in
this application.
No one present wished to speak.

�John Morabito made a motion to close the Public Hearing.
Robert Anello seconded.
Motion carried unanimously.
Public Hearing closed.
Chairman Paolantonio commented that the last decision was made a few months
ago. There were three conditions. They came back with this proposal to lock up the
storefront in the front. If the present tenants leave, he couldn't rent it to one tenant
the way it stands now.
Robert Anello stated that his concern was what it was going to look like. One side
looking like residential apartments and the other side looking like a store.
Discussion on parking and the number of rooms followed.
Robert Anello motioned to declare this a Type IISEQRA Action which will have no
material adverse impact on the environment.
Gary McLean seconded.
Motion carried unanimously.
Robert Anello move to grant the variance to permit a one bedroom apartment as
proposed in the plans and subject to the same conditions that were on the variance
granted on December 21,1994 omitting the requirement that the whole front be
used as a storefront.
John Morabito seconded.
Motion carried unanimously.
John Morabito moved to approve the minutes of February 15,1995 as corrected.
Chairman Paolantonio seconded.
Motion carried unanimously.
There being no further business before the Board, the meeting was adjourned.

Respectfully submitted,
