< The request for final site plan review was unanimously approved
by the Board. The matter will be referred to the Town Commission
at the next meeting to be held on February 10, 1984.
4. P.B. #84 -2
A request by William W. Rupe, architect for the Gamble residence,
for preliminary site plan review for development of a single family
residence on property described by metes and bounds and located at
1723 north Ocean Blvd.
Mr. Rupe displayed the prelii;inary rendering of the plans. Mr.
Caputo pointed out in regard to the north side set back, the wall
that is shown, which is part of the decking and connected to the
pool building, will have to meet side yard requirements, and
variance will have to be requested. All other set backs meet
the requirements.
There was discussion regarding a wall on A -1 -A, and suggestion was
made to substitute a hedge in order to conform to the Building Code,
Mr. Toucher stated that in view of the amount of time and effort
spent in modernizing the Town's Zoning Ordinance, he was reluctant
to grant a variance of this type, when other changes could be made.
Mr. Rupe stated that they will not build a wall less than 78 feet,
which will be in conformance with Zoning regulations.
The provision of the Ordinance regarding landscaping was called to
Mr. Rupe's attention, and plans will have to conform to same.
The said changes will have to be made and preliminary site plans
reviewed again -- the next meeting being March 7, 1984- Mr. Rupe
was informed that he will not be required to appear.
5. B.O.A. #1 -84
A request by Digby Bridges, agent for Gordon Ripma, for a variance
to Section VII, K.I. of the zoning ordinance reducing side yard
setbacks from 15 feet to 10 feet on property described by metes
and bounds and located at 3224 County Road.
Mr. Bridges appeared before the Board and explained that the new
setback requirements would be a hardship. This is a subdivided
lot that was annexed into the Town, and is a very small lot.
Mr. Caputo stated that the Town has received three letters of
objection from surrounding property owners, which letters were
read to the Board.
Mr. Brandt spoke about alternative ways to enlarge the house,
which would not enhance the appearance,. and it was his thought
that even with the denial of the variance, it will be added on
in any event, but will not look right.

Mr. Boucher suggested that a new notice be sent to the adjoining
property owners, stating that the Board has no legal basis for
denying an addition to this house, explaining the requirements in
the Ordinance, and asking for their decision. There was continued
discussion.
Mr. and Mrs. Lee, adjacent property owners, appeared before the
Board, stating their objection. A lengthy discussion followed
regarding the compliance with the Ordinance.
Motion was made and seconded to continue this hearing for two
purposes:
1. To get a legal opinion from the Town Attorney as to whether
or not construction can be prohibited at all.
2. assuming that they cannot prohibit, that the property owners
be contacted, informing them that there will be a second
hearing on the variance. At the hearing on March 7, 1984,
the only issue that will be addressed is whether or not
this will be built by extending the existing setbacks, or
whether it is going to be built otherwise. Motion passed.
6. Board Members Comments.
Mr. Eaton stated that if the legal opinion from the Town Attorney
is that they cannot stop the proceedings previously mentioned,
then it is his thought that the Board should seriously consider
amending the Ordinance.
7. Comments from the Public.
None.
8. Adjournment.
There being no further business to come before the Board, the
me�ng was adjourned at 10:55 A.M.
