So moved. Second. Aye.

So our public hearing tonight is appeal number 2026-012, Jody Ordeone, 735 Manor Lane, Jamesport, Suffolk County, tax note number 600-22-1-1.2, agricultural protection zoning to legalize a pergola and three sheds. applicant request variances and or relief from Town Code chapter 301-37 a1a where three sheds one directly on property line and pergola in front yard where accessory structures are not permitted in the front yard and chapter 301-39 where impervious surface coverage is 18.5% maximum permitted is 15% this was adjourned from July 9th and then previously from June 11 it was re-noticed due to additional relief for impervious surface coverage. Senator, did you testify the last time? No, sir. Brooke Everson from my office. Want to raise your right hand, please? Sure. So with all truth, thank you for your truth. Would you hand down, please, a loud, clear voice. Please state your name and your address. Anthony Portillo, architect. We are 12500 Main Road, Manitou. All right. How can we help you? We are here requesting a variance for as-built structures there are there is a pergola in the front yard I'm sorry the pergola also would need a front yard variance and then there's also three sheds where our existing were existing prior to the owner buying the uh the lot um just my thoughts on this uh the area surrounding this residence is it's kind of strange because it's like all agricultural and our neighbor business printed this out like just a bunch of greenhouses just so we understand we've all visited the location just uh so i thought i really think that based on what we're asking for it's pretty reasonable request for the area there was a pool approved by the board of pool granted for the front yard that was installed right so the pergola is next to the pool well one of the issues we have like discuss with you is by the pergola listed is a chimney is that correct it's uh yeah there's like a chimney out of pergola that's like a fireplace. One of our concerns is about if you need a if you have a fence around it, secondarily if the fire marshal would approve such a location for pergola.

I mean, in my opinion, I would say that as long as the flu meets code in regards to distance from the ridge or from the well that's what we're inclined to do with it we'd make it subject to approval of the fire marshal i would agree with that and i would say building code as well make sure it's safe i will know it probably wouldn't because it's a residential property it wouldn't be reviewed by the fire marshal but the building inspector is a code official so the better wording is code official the appropriate official yeah the requirement would be like 10 feet that three feet above that 10 foot plane so if they don't meet that requirement i think they would have to extend the chimney to meet that requirement the other thing is the the one shed uh i guess it's on the north side the first one as you come in yes sir it's right on the property line can you move that not a problem five feet off the one five feet please no problem Is that A? Yes. Yep.

And then there's an agricultural buffer. That's got to be the, is that the west side? I think it's the back of the house. Yes. I think it's the west side of the house. Yes, the 25-foot agricultural buffer. So it seems like from some of the satellite images that we reviewed in the pre-meeting, that there's some... I don't know exactly what's on it. I know what you're referring to. It's a fence and kind of a home for goats. Okay. So she has her goats living in this fence. She has like a doghouse. It's kind of like a doghouse, but the goats live in it. Move it if they have to is the note I have here. If that's what the board is requesting, they'll move it. But that's what it is. Yeah, we're requesting that they move whatever's in the agricultural buffer. Just scoot it out so it's outside that buffer. Right. Outside. Okay. So in there, property outside the buffer. We're talking things that are structures like... There is like a... A goat house in there. Yeah, it's like a dog house that the goats live in. But sure. This is a Tom Brady. I wish it was. It's very boring. Anything else? So move into their yard. Outside. Outside of the 25-foot buffer. Outside buffer. Got it. We need to get. Okay. Any other questions? We're good? One question. So I would just resubmit this back with those changes? The site plan? Oh, after the fact. Not propose it. move then you give us a final survey okay give it to the building department so if the board is inclined to grant with those conditions the written determination will have them in there the building department will get a copy of that and then you'll have to update the site planner survey with them and then submit the final when everything's done God thank you with respect to appeal number 2026-012. I move that the appeal of Jody Ordeone, 735 Manor Lane, Jamesport, STM number 600-22-1-1.2, Agricultural Protection, APZ Zoning, for variances and or relief from Town Code, Chapter 301-37A1A, where three sheds, one direct, on the property line and per ogle in front yard where accessory structures are not permitted in the front yard and chapter 301-39 where impervious surface coverage is eighteen point five percent maximum permitted is fifteen percent be granted as long as the applicants relocate the shed located on the property to comply with the shed setbacks which would be five feet from the property line and this would be also subject to the inspection and approval of any pool fence that's there and required as well as the chimney in the perogola by the appropriate official from the building department and the removal of any equipment any playground equipment and equipment any structures and as noted any goat houses or goat structures that are located in the agricultural buffer zone.
