Approval of Minutes: Regular Planning Board Meeting January 4, 1984. Upon unanimous vote of the Board, the minutes of the January 4, 1984 meeting were approved as submitted. 3. P.B. #84 -1 A request by Milord Development Company for final site plan review (Staley Property No. Ocean Blvd.) for construction of a multiple family dwelling, on property described by metes and bounds and located at 2600 North Ocean Blvd. Mr. Tom Milord again presented the plans and stated that they had revised the egress and the flow of traffic around the front end of the property. 'There will be seven apartments. There was discussion about the entrance gates and access for garbage trucks. Also, about the wall on the south side which will be repaired and continued with new wall, also a matching wall on the north side. Mr. Caputo stated that the Milord Company has cooperated in every way on all recommendations, and strongly recommended approval of the request. Minutes Planning Board Meeting February 1, 1984 page 2 < 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. Minutes Planning Board Meeting February 1, 1984 page 3 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. Eu*�ne A. Caputo Assistant Town Manager
