NOTICE OF PUBLIC HEARING

PLEASE TAKE NOTICE, that the Zoning Board of Appeals of the Village of Great Neck shall
hold a public hearing on Thursday, August 5, 2021 at 7:30PM at Village Hall, 61 Baker Hill
Road, Great Neck, NY 11023.
The Zoning Board of Appeals of the Village of Great Neck shall hear the application of Joseph
Mounessa, owner, represented by Paul Bloom, attorney, for the premises at 35 BEACH ROAD
in Great Neck. The applicant is seeking the following variance(s) from the Village Zoning Code
in connection with a subdivision application:
Interior Lot
1. ß575-81 Lot Width and Lot Coverage
2. On an interior lot:
(1) A minimum lot width of 50 feet shall be maintained from the street line for the first 100
feet of lot depth or 30 feet beyond that point of construction of the principal building that
is farthest from the street line, whichever distance is greater.
(2) There shall be a minimum depth of 100 feet.
The proposed interior lot averages 93.5 feet, whereby 100 feet is required. A
variance of 6.5 feet is required.
Corner Lot
1. ß575-81 Lot Width and Lot Coverage
B. On a corner lot:
(2) There shall be a minimum depth of 100 feet from the lesser of the street lines of both
public streets.
The proposed depth of the corner lot is 89.11 feet, whereby 100 feet is required. A
variance of 10.89 feet is required.
ß575-79 Population Density and Street Frontage
B. No single-family dwelling shall be constructed on or occupy a corner lot having an
area of less than 5,500 square feet or having street frontage of less than 55 feet on
any one abutting municipal street or less than 155 feet on all abutting municipal
streets.
The proposed total of all street frontages of the corner lot is 152.16 feet,
whereby 155 feet of street frontage is required for municipal streets. A variance
of 2.84 feet is required.
1.
ß575-85 Side Yards
B. On a corner lot, a single-family dwelling shall have only one side yard abutting an
interior lot adjacent thereto. Said side yard shall have a minimum width of eight feet,
plus 2/5 of the width of the lot in excess of 55 feet measured in the same direction.
The side yard shall be on the side adjoining the interior lot opposite the front yard
having the greater street frontage. The two yards fronting on public streets shall be
considered front yards, as provided by ß 575-84, and the remaining yard shall be
considered a rear yard and shall conform to the provisions of ß 575-86.
The proposed side yard is 9.5 feet, whereby 12 feet is required. A variance of 2.5
feet is required.
1.
ß575-168 Facades of Single-Family Dwellings
B. No more than 75% of a two-story front or side facade shall be made in one vertical
plane; the balance of said facade shall follow a vertical plane which is separated from
the former plane by at least two feet. A projecting chimney shall not be considered a
separation.
The proposed east elevation is without breaks on a vertical plane. A variance is
required.
2.
This requirement is standing because of ß575-173 Non-conforming Structures and
Uses on Parcels to be Subdivided : Whenever there is a subdivision of land, all
nonconforming uses and structures, whether the nonconformity relates to the size or
location of a structure, its use, or the number of multiple residences within one or more
buildings on one lot, or otherwise, shall be eliminated as a condition of the subdivision.
Any hardship or difficulty which may have existed and served as the basis for continuing
the nonconformity shall be deemed to have substantially diminished, and to have been
compensated for by the granting of the subdivision and the benefits which derive
therefrom to the owner, and knowingly waived by the owner when it chose, at its
exclusive option, to apply for the subdivision. The foregoing shall not preclude an
applicant from seeking a variance from this section from the Village’s Board of Appeals.
1. ß575-82 Lot Coverage
Lot coverage on a residential lot in the Residence C District shall not exceed the following
thresholds:
B. Rear yard coverage: 40%.
The proposed rear yard coverage is about 1,327 SF, whereby 728 SF is allowed. A
variance of
599 SF is required.
The premises are also known as Section 1, Block 60, Lot(s) 46 and 47 on the Nassau County
Land and Tax Map, and are located in the Residence Zoning C District. A copy of the
application materials is available for review in the Village of Great Neck Building Department,
Village Hall, during regular business hours.
If anyone needs special accommodations for a disability, such person should contact the
Village Clerk at least 5 days before the hearing. At said hearing, all parties and interests will be
given an opportunity to be heard.
BY ORDER OF THE BOARD OF APPEALS
OF THE VILLAGE OF GREAT NECK
