Agenda
BOARD OF APPEALS ZONING
CALENDAR NO AGENDA 7:00 P.M. JULY 1, 2015
Z-2015-8 Mr. Victor Caceres, 18-20 West Post Road, SBL 130.26-11-6.
Application for change of occupancy. A review of drawings A-1 to A-4
dated November 7, 2014 prepared by DeVita Architects, AIA indicates a
proposed change of occupancy. The premises are located in the B-3 Zone
where the proposed restaurant is a Special Permit Use. The Planning
Board is the approving agency but the proposed use is dimensionally non-
conforming with respect to off street parking. Therefore, the following
area variance is required prior to submission to the Planning Board for
Special Permit approval:
Required Existing Proposed Variance
1. Required Off Street 21 5 5 16
Parking Space
Z-2015-10 Nabiel Rimawi, 186-200 Westchester Ave, SBL 126.61.5.3&4,
Application to expand and reconstruct the service station. These premises
are located in a B-3 (Intermediate Business) zone where a motor vehicle
service station requires a special permit. The Zoning Board of Appeals is
the approving agency for special permits of this type and therefore would
review the proposed amendment.
Z-2015-15 Mr. Rui Encarnacao, 27 Cobb Avenue, SBL 130.16-19-12. Application
for an addition. A review of drawings S1 and 1 through 4 with the latest
date of December 23, 2014, prepared by Michael A. Gismondi, AIA,
indicates a proposed one(1) story rear yard addition. The premises are
located in the R1-12.5 Zone and is legally non-conforming with respect to
lot area, frontage and side yard setbacks. The proposed addition will
require the following area variances:
Required Existing Proposed Variance
1. Main Building Coverage 18% 16.03% 18.93% 0.93%
2. One Side Yard Setback 20'-0" 4.1' 17.1' 2.9'
3. Combined Side Yard Setbacks 40'-0" 13.8' 26.8' 13.2'
Z-2015-17 Mr. Stephen Mezzo, 905 North Street, SBL 131.19-4-3. Application
A fence with Pergola. A review of the survey and literature submitted
with the application dated May 11, 2015, indicates the proposed
installation of a six foot (6') high fence with entrance Pergola. The
proposed fence is to be installed along the side lot line fronting North
Street. Section 4.4.16 of the White Plains Zoning Ordinance states in part,
that fence height shall not exceed four feet (4') when located in any
required yard abutting a street. Therefore, an area variance is requested.

CALENDAR NO AGENDA 7:00 P.M. JULY 1, 2015
Z-2015-18 Ms. Grace Friend, 185 Hartsdale Avenue, SBL 130.20-13-7. Application
driveway expansion. A review of drawing 1 of 2 dated April 14, 2015,
prepared by Christoper Utschig P.E., indicates the proposed extension of
the driveway into the front yard. The premises are located in the R1-12.5
Zone. Section 8.6 of the W.P. Zoning Ordinance does not permit parking
in residential districts in the front yard except as follows: In those areas of
the front yard contiguous to the side yards or an attached garage. Or the
front yard beyond the minimum required front yard in case of a circular
driveway with two (2) curb cuts. Therefore, an area variance is requested.
Z-2015-19 Mr. Zack Salino, 5 Heatherbloom Road, SBL 131.13-9-2.
Application for an addition. A review of drawings A-1 to A-3, with a
received date of April 30, 2015 prepared by John Scarlato, Architect,
indicates a one story rear yard addition. The premises are located in the
R1-12.5 Zone and are legally non-conforming with respect to lot frontage
and side yard setbacks. The proposed addition will increase the non-
conformities and will require the following area variances:
Required Existing Proposed Variance
1. One Side Yard 20'-0" 12.06' 12.76' 7.24'
2. Combined Two Side Yards 40'-0" 33.51' 34.21' 5.79'
NEW APPLICATIONS NO APPEARANCE
Z-2015-20 Mr. Steven Fugarino, 12 Elmwood Road, SBL 138.10-18-5.
Application for an in-ground swimming pool. A review of drawing A-1,
dated March 13, 2015, prepared by Max Parangi Architects, indicates the
proposed installation of an in-ground pool. Currently, a six (6') foot high
fence encloses the side and rear yards. The proposed plan indicates that
the existing six foot fence will be within 25'-0" of the pool edge for
approximately 50% of the pool perimeter. The remaining fence enclosing
the pool will be a new 4'-0" high fence designed to meet the New York
State Residential Code. Since this deviates from Section 4.4.24.7 of the
Zoning Ordinance for pool fencing, an area variance is requested in order
to comply with the Special Permit.
