September 6,1979
To: Mr. Hans R. Gunderud; Building Inspector and Zoning Administrator
Town Of Wappinger, Town Hall
Wappinger Falls N. H. 12590
Dear Mr. Gunderud:
I, Ron La Sora wish to thank you for the assistance you have given me as
per our phone conversation of August 27, in reguards to a variance which would
~ enable me to retail a clothing product from my property on Rt. 376 and Meyers
Corners Road.
Attached you will find completed applications and forms that you sent me.
One of these forms makes mention of a 'Project Review Sheet', of which I did not
receive. If one is necessary, could you please send me a copy?
I am writing this letter to make you and the zoning board aware of my ideas
and the substance of my variance request.
I own and live on 2.7 acres of land situated on the corner of Rt376 and
Meyers Corners Road, Wappinger Falls N. Y. I have owned this property since 1972,
and both buildings- home, and seperate garage, face Rt376. My proposition is to
turn approximately one half of the two car garage into a store 'more or less'
where I can sell blue jeans, and like denim products. This would be strictly a
part time operation only open 4 to 5 hours per day. r do not \vish to be open on
Sundays. I have recently been divorced, and consequently have lost the earning
power of my ex-wife. This part time venture may help in the restoration of lost
revenue.
r assure you, and the board, that my property has never been or ever will be
an eye-sore to the community. This enterprise will be handled in good taste.
Statistics
#1 The area to be used for this business would be appx. 325 sq. ft. of garage space.
#2 The garage is six years old, wood and frame structure.
#3 There is ample parking available in my driveway for at least 8 cars.
#4 This small business would not create a traffic situation on either road.
#5 A small non-illuminated sign would be used for business identification.
#6 I do not anticipate any controversy over this project as all lands bordering me
on all sides, are engaged in some type of business. See attached map.
a. Property behind mine on Heyers Corners Rd. Hr. F. Zipprich has a C.P.A.
office in his home.
b. Property next to mine on Meyers Corners Rd. and Rt 376- Mr. G. Harrison
antique store and dealer
c. Property across from me on Rt 376- H. Whitemire 180 acres zoned industrial.
d. Land adjoining the above on Rt 376- This is a sanitation service Co.
e. South of me on Rt 376- This family runs a retail produce and plant shop.from
garage.
f. My property is next to Con Edison power lines.
Ron La Sota appeal continued
As you can see, there aee businesses all around me. Because of all the reasons
in this letter, I formally request the here-in mentioned variance.
Your consideration in this matter is appreciated. Could you please keep me
informed of any progress in this matter, or of any items that I may need to submit?
I have never done this before and must admit my lack of knowledge in these dealings.
