Prepared by Department of Community Development Staff
MEETING DATE: June 21, 1995
AREA VARIANCE NO. 26-1995
Applicant: David L. Barnes, II
Project Location: 4 John Street
Proposed Action: Applicant seeks to construct a 2-car garage
attached to an existing residence located on a corner lot.
Conformance with the Ordinance: According to Section 179-30.1,
lots bounded by two roads are subject to the front
yard setback on both roads. This lot was part of a 1979
subdivision approval, which set front setbacks at 35 feet.
The current setback requirement for this zoning district
is 30 feet.
Criteria for considering an Area Variance, according to
Chapter 267, Town Law
1. Benefit to applicant: Applicant would be able to have
a two -car garage for storage and vehicles.
2. Feasible alternatives: Considering the location of the
existing driveway, plus the topography of the site, there
does not appear to be a feasible alternative.
3. Is this relief substantial relative to the ordinance?
The relief requested is 43% of the3A5-foot setback,
and 33% of the current requirement.
4. Effects on the neighborhood or community? It does not
appear that there would be any adverse effects from this
project, particularly since there is an existing 4pwvnmk�,
driveway, and traffic pattern established that would not
change.
5. Is this difficulty self-created?: This does not appear to
be the case.

No further comment.

Comments:
It is the policy of the Warren County Planning Board to follow the procedures of the New York State General
'Municipal Law, Section 239-M, with regard to Municipal Zoning actions that are referred to and reported
thereon. The following are procedural requirements that must be adhered to:
1.) The Warren County Planning Board shall report its recommendations to the referring municipal
agency, accompanied by.a full statement for such actions. If no action Is taken within thirty (30)
days or agreed upon time, the municipal agency may act without such report
2.) If the recommendation is for disapproval of the proposal, or modification thereof,: the municipal
agency shall not act' contrary to such action exQt by a vote of a majority plus one of all the
members thereof and after the adoption of a resolution fully setting forth the reasons `tor such
contrary actions.;
" days after the final action by
3.) Y!f hl the municipal agency having jurisdiction on the
r(7) Y .,.

file a report wit{t the Warren=jCounty Planning Board on the necessary form.
Chairperson
C.C. Powell moth, k1ce Chairperson
introduced by David Menter who moved for its adoption, seconded
by Fred Carvin:
The proposed action is to construct a two oar garage attached to
an aulatin9 residence located on a corner lot, and according to
Section 179-30.1, the lot being a corner lot is subject to two
front yard setbacks, one on each adjacent street. The current
setback requirement is 30. Applicant seeks approval for a 20.45
foot setback from the westerly side adjoining Heat Mountain Road.
The building at present has no garage. It originally had one
that was filled in because of severe drainage problems. To add a
garage, there would appear to be no feasible alternatives 6u* to
the topography, existing septic system and location of the house
on the property. While the relief is substantial, it does not
appear as though it will have an adverse effect on the
neighborhood, as even this setback appears to be in line with
many of the adjoining properties. Therefore, there would seem to
be no adverse effect on the community, and this is not a self--
created hardship. The current owner and applicant has owned the
property for approximately a year, and bought it in the current
garage's state. There was No County impact determined by Warren
County Planning board. There also was no public opposition.
It's a relief of 9�55 feet from the setback.
Duly adopted this 21at day of June, 1995, by the following vote:
Thomas. AYE: Mr. Green, Mr. Ford, Mr. Men�er, M r� omao, M r� Carvin
NOES: NONE
ABSENT: Mr. Karpe|en, Mr. Mare000
