Upon motion by Mr. Casey, Seconded by Mr. Smith, minutes of meeting held December 8, 1987 were approved as written and received by all members by mail. Motion unanimously carried. LOUIS SNELL, 51 MARKET STREET, WA~PINGERS FALLS Chairman advised the first order of business would be public hearing on request of Louis Snell, 19 Monroe Drive, Poughkeepsie, seeking a variance for property located at 51 Market Street, Wappingers Falls. Secretary read Legal Notice as inserted in Southern Dutchess News, and Notice of Appeal #25-87. Mr. Snell stated that he desires to subdivide his property and appeared before the Planning Board December 3, 1987. The Planning Board recommended that he furnish a map showing the subdivision of the property which falls into two different zones and request an appearance before the Zoning Board of Appeals for a variance. Mr. Snell presented a map showing the square footage of each lot as it would appear after a subdivision. He explained that in his previous appearance before this Board, he advised that he wished to divide the area along the cliff which he pointed out on the map. However, this would give an area less than 10,000 square feet (minimum lot size). Therefore, the new proposal would give a 10,000 square foot lot size. He further explained that the variance is requested be- cause the width of the property is 60 feet instead of the required 75. Samuel Iannone addressed the Board advising that he has been at the bleachery property since 1962, at which time he purchased a three- story building. He advised that there is a difference of opinion as to the right of way he has. Mr. Snell believes it is 15 feet, Mr. Iannone said, and they have had a 35-foot right of way since 1962. Mr. Iannone stated that Mr. Snell has a land-locked piece of land and in order to get to it, he must go over Mr. Iannone's encroachment which they have used since 1962.
