Home My WebLink About11-03-2003 Minutes of Meeting of November 3, 2003 Village of Cayuga Heights Zoning Board of Appeals Present: Chairman Robin Cisne, Members Kenneth Robinson, Joe Petrillose, Marian Kira, Wayne Fleming and Peter McClelland. Others: Brent Cross, Rayinond and Margaret VanHoutte, Al Biloski. Chairman Cisne opened the meeting at 7:00 pm and gave an overview of the meeting format and the meeting requirements. The first case up for review was a request by Raymond and Margaret Van Houtte requesting to allow an existing 14.8' side yard setback, which is less than the 15' required, and to allow an existing lot coverage of 15%, which is greater than the 12% allowed in a Residence District, at 1 Strawberry Lane (tax parcel 8.-2-11). Brent Cross described the situation with the request and reiterated that there was a "miscalculation" on the numbers used originally to get a Certificate of Occupancy approved. Chairman Cisne asked if anyone wanted to speak to this situation. No further communication was heard from residents on this matter. Motion by Wayne Fleming MOVE to approve petition for variance to allow Ray and Margaret VanHoutte an existing 14.8' side yard setback, and to allow existing lot coverage of 15% at 1 Strawberry Lane (tax parcel 8.-2-11). Seconded by Ken Robinson. APPROVED by Robin Cisne, Marian Kira, Ken Robinson, Joe Petrillose and Wayne Fleming The second action brought before the Board was a request by Alan Biloski to construct a deck on his home with a 6.V side yard setback, which is less than the 15' required in a Residence District, at 508 Highland Road (tax parcel 12.-2-5). Brent Cross spoke on the request. The south side of the house is in full compliance now as part of the house was removed. The deck addition lines up with the existing structure which also is under the required 15' setback. Lot coverage is good (9.4%) which is well under the 12%, not including the demolition. No other neighbors have spoken on this. Mr. Biloski wrote to the owner on the side affected (Michael Steinberg) and he approved. Motion by Wayne Fleming MOVE to approve the side yard setback. Seconded by Marian Kira APPROVED by Robin Cisne, Marian Kira, Ken Robinson, Joe Petrillose and Wayne Fleming. Meeting adjourned at 7:30 p.m. post-it"Fax Note 7671 Date.,+ �, L pages From..

DATE: October 23, 2003 (revised 10/27/03) TO: ZONING BOARD OF APPEALS FROM: Brent A. Cross, Zoning Officer RE: 1 Strawberry Lane, Tax Map No. 8-2-11 REPORT: In the process of selling the above reference property, the owner's discovered that their house is not in compliance with the Village Zoning Ordinance. Specifically, the new survey map indicates that the east side of the house is 14.8' from the property line, which is less than the 15' required by SECTION 6: YARD REQUIREMENTS. The new map also shows that the existing structures occupy 15.0% of the lot coverage, which exceeds the 12% that is allow by SECTION 7: LOT COVERAGE. -r The applicant has requested a variance per the above section. Therefore a Public Hearing by the Zoning Board of Appeals has been scheduled for Monday, November 3, 2003, 7:00 pm at the Village Hall, 836 Hanshaw Road. Please note the part of the house that is not in compliance is an addition that was built in the late `80's and was approved to be located 15' from the property line. Apparently, no official surveying was done and the time and the result was unintended. In fact, a Certificate of Occupancy was issued by the Village at the time of completion.
