Special Meeting Minutes
The Board reviewed the facts in this matter, which are as
follows "Vincent and Mary Lopez of Dorothy Heights, Wappingers
Fails, New York, applied to the Town of Wappinger Building
Inspector for a Building Permit to erect a one -family residence
on a parcel of four combined lots shown on a filed map as lots
# 42, 44, 46, and 48, and fronting on a street designated as
Ingalls Street. The Building Permit application was rejected by
the Building Inspector because said Ingalls Street has not been
improved to the satisfaction of the Town Board as required by
Section 280A of the New York State Town Law. Therefore, Mr. and

of Appeals because of hardship in being denied the use of their
land. A public hearing was held on August 130 1968, at the Town
Hall* Mill Street, Wappingers Falls, New York, at 8:00 p.m., at
