Dear Sirs:
Zoning Hoard of Appeals/_
Board
3728 Lyncort Dr.
Cortland, N.Y.
April 8, 1990
I received a notice of a Public Hearing for a variance on Parcel
No. 95.00-03-10.000, 3710 Lyncort Dr. I am unable to attend the
Public Hearing set for April 12, 1990, at 7:30 PM dueto an out -of
town committment. Therefore, I am -setting forth below requested condi-
tions prior to approval of this variance.
Provisions need to be made for proper drainage of the road and
surface water between my property line and the aforementioned property.
Prior to the Murdock Estates Development being approved, I attended the
Public Hearing and voiced concerns as to improperdrainage possibly
occuring. This could cause the contamination of my water supply which
is situated at the base of this area. The problem now arises by the
fact that the above parcel has been filled in and raised substantially.
This has created a blockage of surface (road) water which comes down
Lyncort Dr. north to south from continuing to a stream due to the change
of land topography. This now creates two problems:
#1 Water now gathers at the southern end of my property with
nowhere to go except into the ground.
#2 The salt and road film water permeates into the ground over
and near my well. This could create a contamination of my
well. (It's not a problem for the above parcel as they will
have public water.)
On the day I received this notice, I went to see Bruce A. Weber,
Code Enforcement Officer. I spoke to him about the problem. He
duggested I contact Mr. Bush, Road Superintendent. I went to the Supt's.
office and left a messsage with Jim Cogswell to have Mr. Bush contact me.
In the meantime I contacted Councilman Ted Testa and reviewed the
problem with him. He assured me that Mr. Bush would be in contact with
me and that the possibility of extending the waterline from the next
door property could solve the problem.
Later that day Mr. Bush and Mel Pierce, Town Supervisor, Stopped
to see me and we discussed the situation and problems. Mr. Bush
assured me that he would monitor the surface water flow and look for a
remedy to this. Mr. Pierce suggested that extending the water line
might be a solution to avoiding contaminated water useage from the well
should this occur.
I do not wish to hold up the development of Parcel No. 95.00-03-
10.000. However, I feel that since the Town has created these two
problems by the approval of the Development, they should be responsi-
ble for their solution.
-2 -
The solutions of the two problems are:
#1 Eliminate the drainage problem created by the re -configuration
of the newly developed land.
#2 Solve the possible contamination problem by the means suggested
by Mr. Testa and Mr. Pierce.
Hopefully the Zoning Board and Town Board will understand this
problem and document remedies as conditions for granting a variance
for building on the above mentioned parcel.
Sinc ly yours
Alexander L. Milham v

Ted Testa, Councilman
Bruce Weber, Code Enforcement Officer
RESOLUTION NO. 7-90, April 12, 1990.
On motion of Thomas Bilodeau , seconded by John Finn,
the following resolution is
unanimously adopted:
WHEREAS, this Board made a determination to grant the
variance application of Cortlandville Lodge No. 470- of the
Freemasons, and
WHEREAS, the July 17, 1989 Order of Hon. Irad S. Ingraham
remanded said determination to this Board for the purpose of
-setting forth the Board's findings of fact,
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT
RESOLVED, that the findings of fact which are the bases
for this Zoning Board of Appeals granting an area variance on
May 23, 1989 for property to be acquired by the applicant
Cortlandville Lodge No. 470 of the Freemasons are as follows:
1. Applicant proposes a permitted use (subject to
conditional permit from the Town Planning Board).on a parcel of
land to be 3.31 acres in an area zoned R-1 on the west side of
N.Y.S. Route 13 north of the boundary line of the City of
Cortland. The proposed use is that of a private not-for-profit
social organization of the Freemasons.
2. The subject- property is currently vacant. It is
bordered on the north by 7.44± acres currently vacant and
believed to be used for agricultural purposes, as well as a
1.5± acre parcel used for residential purposes.
3. Across from the subject property on the east side of
N.Y.S. Route 13 is substantial acreage used for educational
purposes and includes a� large building and parking lot for the
Onondaga, Cortland, Madison Board of Cooperative Educational
t
Services. ( BOCES) .
4.- North of the subject property is a 5.74.1 parcel used-
as
sedas a church by the Faith Baptist Church of Cortland..
5. The subject lot has five sides with 125± feet frontage
on N.Y.S. Route 13; 200± feet in width for most of its proposed
depth.
6. The proposed lot exceeds the necessary minimum lot
size and. over 80% of the lot meets the required lot width.
Section 47..5 (3)(c) of the Town of Cortlandville Zoning Law sets
forth the. "guideline" of 200 .feet for lot width, defined as
average. width measured at right angles to its depth. The
proposed lot- has an average lot width of 196.3 feet, being
within 2% of the stated "guideline" of 200 feet.
7. Applicant's proposed lot meets all bulk requirements
and is within 2% of the numerical "guideline" for average lot
width.
8. The Cortland. County Planning Board unanimously
recommended approval of this area variance request by its
resolution No. 89-39. dated May 17, 1989.
9. The proposed use of the parcel is a not-for-profit
social organization of the .Freemasons for approximately 150
members, most over the age of 60 years and would have no
alcoholic beverages available.
10. Based on the findings of fact herein, the Board
concludes:
A. An area variance fora difference of 2% from
the stated average lot width "guideline" is
not necessary since such a difference is
insubstantial and is well within the discretion
of the Town Planning Board- to allow if -the,
Planning Board otherwise determines -to -grant.
the necessary -Conditional Permit.
B. Since a variance nevertheless has been sought
from this Zoning Board of Appeals,. this Board
further concludes that such variation of 2%
from the "guideline" of average lot width is
minimal.
C. The lot's use and the variance would have
virtually no impact on population density
and governmental facilities.
D.. The lot's use and variance would provide
virtually no change in the character of the
neighborhood, nor be a detriment to adjoining
properties.
E.._ Due to the unique shape of the applicant's lot, -
applicant haspractical difficulties for its
proposed, otherwise permitted,: use of the lot.
F., It is in the interests of justice to grant the
area variance request.

several of the homes within close proximity.

not comply with the sideyard setback. This is
