WHEREAS, Anthony Calogero & Siobhan Kranz (the "Applicant")requested a variance
for addition/garage/fireplace/generator/ac on the premises located at 110 Murray Avenue
Town of Mamaroneck,New York and known on the Tax Assessment Map of the Town of
Mamaroneck as Section 1 Block 19 Lot 71; and
WHEREAS, the Building Inspector declined to issue such permit on the following grounds: Zoning Board of
Appeals variances needed for; the proposed sunroom to habitable space alteration will have a front yard setback
of 20.9' where 30' is required, pursuant to 240-38 B (1); the proposed detached garage will have a front yard
setback of 21.6' where 30' is required pursuant to 240-38 B (1); the proposed detached garage will have a rear
yard setback of 5' where 25' is required pursuant to 240- 38 B (3); the proposed freestanding fireplace will have
a rear yard setback of 12.0' where 25' is required pursuant to 240-38 B (3); the proposed freestanding fireplace
will have a side yard setback of 7' where 10' is required pursuant to 240-38 B (2)(a); the proposed stand-by
generator will have a side yard setback of 7'where 10' is required pursuant to 240-38 B (2)(a); the proposed A/C
units will have a side yard setback of 6.6' where 10' is required pursuant to 240-38 B (2)(a); the proposed stairs
will have a side yard setback of 3.5' where 10' is required pursuant to 240-38 B (2)(a); the proposed lot coverage
will be 46.8% where 35% is permitted pursuant to 240-38 F; the proposed improvements will increase the floor
area ratio to 3945SF where 3730SF is permitted the Proposed improvements will further increase the extent the
property is nonconforming pursuant to 240-69 for a building in an R-7.5 Zoning District (the "Notice of
Disapproval"); and
WHEREAS, the Applicant submitted to the Zoning Board of the Town of Mamaroneck (the "Board") an
application for relief from the requirements from the Town of Mamaroneck Zoning Ordinance; and
WHEREAS,the Applicant also submitted to the Board an application for interpretation of several provisions of
the Town of Mamaroneck Zoning Ordinance (the "Interpretation Requests"); and
2IPage
Zoning Board of Appeals
September 27, 2023
WHEREAS, the Applicant's attorney stated at the Board meeting on September 27, 2023 that the Applicant has
agreed to withdraw its Interpretation Requests; and
WHEREAS, the application requires residential site plan approval by the Town Planning Board; and
WHEREAS, the Board examined the plans, inspected the site, reviewed the application and has heard any and
all persons interested in this application after publication of a notice thereof and a public hearing thereon; and
WHEREAS, this is a Type II action having no significant impact on the environment pursuant to 6 NYCRR§
617 et. seq. and accordingly, no further action under SEQRA is required, and
A. The Board finds that the benefit to the applicant from the granting of the variance outweighs any
detriment to the health, safety and welfare of the neighborhood or community. In reaching this conclusion,
the Board considered the following factors.
i. Whether an undesirable change will be produced in the character of the neighborhood or detriment to
nearby properties will be created by granting of the variance.
The Board finds that granting the variance will not produce an undesirable change in the character of the
neighborhood or detriment to nearby properties because the applicants are expending considerable time and
money to restore and upgrade the original character of a dilapidated but architecturally pleasing 1922 house to
make it more functional while enhancing its appearance. In particular, the house will preserve the Spanish style
roof tile, stucco siding and the deep eaves or roof overhang.
Further, while relocating the detached garage in a front yard is not typical, the proposal makes sense since this
house is burdened with two front yards and the existing detached garage is larger and closer to the neighboring
property as compared to what is proposed.Also,based on comments by Board members,the Applicant has agreed
to further reduce the size of the proposed garage,move it farther from the front property line at 24 feet,two inches,
and add a design element to better visually integrate the garage with the house.
In addition:
• Re the proposed sunroom which will be altered to increase the amount of habitable interior space, the
proposed sunroom will be wholly within the existing footprint with the identical front and rear yard
setbacks.
• Re the proposed freestanding fireplace, the location is dictated by the placement of the proposed garage;
it will be in line with the garage and will be at least five feet from the rear property line. Further, a masonry
fireplace was selected because it is considered to be safer than a portable heating source (e.g., a fire pit),
which would not have required a variance.
• Re the proposed stand-by generator and A/C units,this equipment will encroach no more into the setbacks
than the existing house and the closest neighboring house is a great distance away from the proposed
location of such equipment. Further, the Board notes that the a/c condensers have a dBA of no greater
3IPage
Zoning Board of Appeals
September 27, 2023
than 60,which is very quiet, and the generator will only generate noise during brief weekly testing periods
and when there is a power outage.
• Re the proposed stairs, this encroachment is only slightly more than the encroachment of the existing
house and they are also to be located on the shared side lot line where the neighboring house is located a
great distance away.
• Re the proposed lot coverage, which will be 46.8% where 35% is permitted, the property will retain a
substantial amount of greenery and planting to be consistent with the appearance of nearby properties and
the applicant also proposes to use permeable materials for the driveway, walkways and patio.
• Re the increased floor area ratio, the Board notes that although the Applicant is adding floor area by
converting a sunporch into a fully integrated living room,in actuality,the bulk of that portion of the house
will not change from what currently exists.
ii. Whether the benefit sought by the applicant can be achieved by some means feasible to the applicants
other than an area variance.
The Board finds that the benefit sought by the Applicant cannot be achieved by some method feasible to the
Applicant not requiring a variance because the house is already noncompliant with respect to setbacks and maxed
out with respect to lot coverage and burdened by two front yards so any renovation project would likely require
variances. Further, the Applicant has demonstrated that the requested variances for the sunroom, garage,
fireplace, steps, lot coverage and floor area ratio are necessary to design a safe, functional and attractive home
with a small, private area for the family to enjoy the backyard. Although lot coverage could be reduced by
eliminating the walkways and stone wall, the Board finds that using permeable materials for the driveway, patio
and walkways is a suitable alternative. The Board further finds that that the Applicant has demonstrated that each
of the requested variances serve a necessary function to preserve and enhance the distinct architectural character
of the house while minimizing impacts to neighbors.
iii. Whether the area variance is substantial.
The Board finds that the variance for lot coverage is substantial but since the Applicant has agreed to use
permeable materials for the driveway, walkways and because the application will be subject to Town drainage
requirements and because the applicant's stormwater plan prepared by Hudson Engineering intends to capture
stormwater from all structures and there will be a sufficient amount of greenery and plantings, this factor is not
determinative. With respect to the other variances: the setback encroachments extend minimally,if at all, beyond
the existing house and the variances related to the garage, fire place and steps are insubstantial because they give
rise to no adverse aesthetic or environmental impacts.
iv. Whether the proposed variance will have an adverse impact on the physical or environmental conditions
in the neighborhood.
The Board finds that the variance will not adversely impact the local physical or environmental conditions because
the project will not generate objectionable noise, stormwater runoff or shadows on neighboring properties.

v. Whether the difficulty is self-created.
The Board finds that the difficulty is self-created, but this factor is not determinative under the circumstances
presented.
B. For the reasons stated above, the granting of the variance is in harmony with the general purposes and
intent of the Town of Mamaroneck Zoning Ordinance and will not be injurious to the neighborhood or
otherwise detrimental to the public welfare.
C. For reasons stated above, the variance is the minimum necessary to alleviate the difficulty detailed in the
application yet also preserves and protects the character of the neighborhood and the health safety and
welfare of the community.
NOW,THEREFORE,BE IT RESOLVED,that the subject application be and the same is GRANTED, subject
to the following conditions:
1. This variance is limited to the construction shown on the submitted plans as conditioned and/or
modified in accordance with the direction of the Board as agreed to by the Applicant.
2. The Applicant shall submit plans reflecting any conditions or modifications as above for the review and
approval by the Building Inspector prior to the granting of the building permit.
3. The Applicant shall obtain a building permit within twelve (12) months of the filing of this
resolution.
4. The building permit shall be void if construction is not started within twelve (12)months.
5. Construction shall be in substantial compliance with the plans submitted in connection with this
application, as conditioned or modified pursuant to the direction of the Board except that changes to
landscaping required by the Town Planning Board in connection with site plan review, shall be
permitted, provided that the boundary between the subject property and the adjacent property on Maple
Hill shall have screening plants to the greatest extent practicable for the length of the garage.
6. Prior to certificate of occupancy, the Applicant shall submit a final as-built survey to the Town
Building Department.
7. The generator shall be exercised only briefly on weekdays between loam and 2pm, for routine testing,
and during power outages.
8. The air conditioning condenser units installed on the subject property shall have a Dba rating of no
greater than 60.
9. The Applicant shall use permeable materials for the driveway, patio and walkways.

A. The Board finds that the benefit to the applicant from the granting of the variance outweighs any detriment to
the health, safety and welfare of the neighborhood or community. In reaching this conclusion, the Board
considered the following factors.
i. Whether an undesirable change will be produced in the character of the neighborhood or detriment to
nearby properties will be created by granting of the variance.
The Board finds that granting the variance will not produce an undesirable change in the character of the
neighborhood or detriment to nearby properties because the fence is only visible by the immediately adjoining
neighbor, who had submitted a letter in support of this application and the fence will not be visible from
anywhere else; further, the fence is open lattice, which is considered less obtrusive as compared to a solid fence.
Additionally, the applicant represented that climbing vines will be planted to mute the potential obtrusiveness of
the lattice.
ii. Whether the benefit sought by the applicant can be achieved by some means feasible to the applicants
other than an area variance.
The Board finds that the benefit sought by the Applicant cannot be achieved by some method feasible to the
Applicant not requiring a variance because the area requiring screening and separation between two adjacent
yards is very narrow and heavily shaded, making it doubtful that vegetative screening would survive.
iii. Whether the area variance is substantial.
The Board finds that the variance is not substantial because the length of the fence is short and only impacts the
adjacent property owner.
iv. Whether the proposed variance will have an adverse impact on the physical or environmental
conditions in the neighborhood.
The Board finds that the variance will not adversely impact the local physical or environmental conditions
because there will be no adverse impacts on air, light or runoff.
v. Whether the difficulty is self-created.
The Board finds that the difficulty is self-created, but this factor is not determinative under the circumstances
presented.
B. For the reasons stated above, the granting of the variance is in harmony with the general purposes and intent
of the Town of Mamaroneck Zoning Ordinance and will not be injurious to the neighborhood or otherwise
detrimental to the public welfare.
C. For reasons stated above, the variance is the minimum necessary to alleviate the difficulty detailed in the
application yet also preserves and protects the character of the neighborhood and the health safety and welfare
of the community.

RESOLUTION
9 Fairway Drive, Town of Mamaroneck, New York
After review, on motion of Irene O'Neill, seconded by Jonathan Sacks, the following resolution was proposed
and unanimously ADOPTED by a vote of 5 to 0,with no abstentions.
WHEREAS, Rohit Sachdeva (the "Applicant")requested a variance for a fence on the premises located at 9
Fairway Drive, Town of Mamaroneck,New York and known on the Tax Assessment Map of the Town of
Mamaroneck as Section 3 Block 33 Lot 851; and
WHEREAS, the Building Inspector declined to issue such permit on the following grounds: Existing on grade
patio has a side yard setback of 0' where 5' is required, pursuant to 240-50; the proposed deck will have a side
yard setback of 7.5' where 15' is required, pursuant to 240-35 B (3); the proposed deck will have a front yard
setback of 26.5' where 40' is required; for a building in an R-20 Zone District(the "Notice of Disapproval");
and
WHEREAS, at the Board meeting on September 27, 2023 it was determined that no variance is needed for the
patio; and
WHEREAS, the Applicant submitted to the Zoning Board of the Town of Mamaroneck(the "Board") an
application for relief from the requirements from the Town of Mamaroneck Zoning Code; and
WHEREAS, the Board examined the plans, inspected the site, reviewed the application and has heard any and
all persons interested in this application after publication of a notice thereof and a public hearing thereon; and
WHEREAS, this is a Type II action having no significant impact on the environment pursuant to 6 NYCRR§

the health, safety and welfare of the neighborhood or community. In reaching this conclusion, the Board
considered the following factors.
i. Whether an undesirable change will be produced in the character of the neighborhood or detriment to
nearby properties will be created by granting of the variance.
The Board finds that granting the variance will not produce an undesirable change in the character of the
neighborhood or detriment to nearby properties because the deck being added is only 12 feet wide, which is
considered minimal to achieve a reasonable seating area and, further, there are plantings on that side of the
house to provide screening.
ii. Whether the benefit sought by the applicant can be achieved by some means feasible to the applicants
other than an area variance.
9IPage
Zoning Board of Appeals
September 27, 2023
The Board finds that the benefit sought by the applicant cannot be achieved by some method feasible to the
applicant that does not require a variance because the homeowners want the deck to be accessible from their
existing kitchen and dining area. Given that the property is a corner lot with two required front yards, it was
determined that the only practical location for the proposed deck is with the existing side yard. Further the
property is very well screened from the street and will not be visible to the neighbors.
iii. Whether the area variance is substantial.
The Board finds that the variance is not substantial because the deck will encroach only 100 square feet into the
side yard setback and it creates no adverse impacts.
iv. Whether the proposed variance will have an adverse impact on the physical or environmental conditions
in the neighborhood.
The Board finds that the variance will not adversely impact the physical or environmental conditions in the
neighborhood because the deck is permeable and will allow water to pass through it. Further, the deck will not
block light or add bulk to the house. Overall, the Board finds that the new deck will be an attractive addition to
the home and neighborhood.
v. Whether the difficulty is self-created.
The Board finds that the difficulty is self-created, but this factor is not determinative under the circumstances
presented.
B. For the reasons stated above, the granting of the variance is in harmony with the general purposes and intent
of the Town of Mamaroneck Zoning Ordinance and will not be injurious to the neighborhood or otherwise
detrimental to the public welfare.
C. For reasons stated above, the variance is the minimum necessary to alleviate the difficulty detailed in the
application yet also preserves and protects the character of the neighborhood and the health safety and welfare
of the community.

3. The Applicant shall obtain a building permit within six (6)months of the filing of this resolution.

MA Strength Lab -2 Madison Avenue, Town of Mamaroneck,New York
After review, on motion of Jonathan Sacks, seconded by Irene O'Neill, the following resolution was proposed
and unanimously ADOPTED by a vote of 5 to 0,with no abstentions.
WHEREAS, Clock Tower - MA Strength Lab (the "Applicant") requested a variance for an illuminated sign
on premises located at-2 Madison Avenue, Town of Mamaroneck,New York and known on the Tax
Assessment Map of the Town of Mamaroneck as Section 1 Block 33 Lot 602; and
WHEREAS, the Building Inspector declined to issue such permit on the following grounds: Proposed internal
illuminated wall sign. Internal illumination of a wall sign is not permitted pursuant to 175-12 C for a building in
a B-R Zone District(the"Notice of Disapproval"); and
WHEREAS, the Applicant submitted to the Zoning Board of the Town of Mamaroneck(the "Board") an
application for relief from the requirements from the Town of Mamaroneck Zoning Code; and

September 27, 2023
WHEREAS, at the September 27, 2023 meeting of the Board, the Town Building Inspector reported that the
Town's Board of Architectural Review approved the Applicant's application for the proposed illuminated wall
sign; and
WHEREAS, the Board examined the plans, inspected the site, reviewed the application and has heard any and
all persons interested in this application after publication of a notice thereof and a public hearing thereon; and
WHEREAS, this is a Type II action having no significant impact on the environment pursuant to 6 NYCRR§

A. The Board finds that the benefit to the applicant from the granting of the variance outweighs any detriment to
the health, safety and welfare of the neighborhood or community. In reaching this conclusion, the Board
considered the following factors.
i. Whether an undesirable change will be produced in the character of the neighborhood or detriment to
nearby properties will be created by granting of the variance.
The Board finds that granting the variance will not produce an undesirable change in the character of the
neighborhood or detriment to nearby properties because the sign is consistent and less intrusive than other
illuminated signs nearby and, further, it will be installed on a commercial building in a commercial area next to
a parking area and another sign. Additionally, the sign utilizes a thin font and black background creating
minimal light to project beyond the back-lighting to the street or nearby properties.
ii. Whether the benefit sought by the applicant can be achieved by some means feasible to the applicants
other than an area variance.
The Board finds that the benefit sought by the applicant cannot be achieved by some method feasible to the
applicant not requiring a variance because illumination is necessary to enable the sign to be seen during non-
daylight hours.
iii. Whether the area variance is substantial.
The Board finds that the variance is not substantial because it is consistent with other commercial signage in the
area and the dimensions of the sign conform to Town regulations. Further, the sign is recessed reducing
protrusion from the facade.
iv. Whether the proposed variance will have an adverse impact on the physical or environmental
conditions in the neighborhood.
The Board finds that the variance will not adversely impact the local physical or environmental conditions
because it will not contribute to noise, shadows or runoff and the illumination of the sign is unobjectionable as
proposed.
