Motion to open the public hearing.
Second the motion.
All present voted aye.
Are the mailings all in order?
Yes.
Last year we received a variance for a pool and now we would like
to attach a pool deck. We cannot put the deck to the rear or the front
so we need to go to the side of the pool.
This will be the same distance as the pool to the property then?
Yes.
I believe this is an R-20 zone that she is in and not an R-15.
All of Wildwood gets a step down.

No, only Wildwood I not Wildwood II. When we did the pool did we
do it as R-15?
Yes. R-20 would require 40 feet.
At this time does anyone in the audience have any comments or
questions?
George Capasso, 25 Quarry Drive. I live across the street from Mrs.
Cabrera and they are excellent neighbors and I don't think this would
have any objection in our neighborhood.
Thank you.

Mrs. Cuevas.
Swore in the resident.
Motion to open the public hearing.
Second the motion.
All present voted aye.
Are the mailings all in order?
Yes.
I would like to put in a 27 foot AG pool
You need two variances I see. 2 feet to the side and 10 feet to the
rear. If you move the pool just 2 feet toward the inside you would
not need the side variance. Would that be a problem?
No I don't think so.
At this time does anyone in the audience have any comments or
questions? Hearing none.
We also did a site visit at Mrs. Cuevas home.
Motion to close the public hearing.

Motion to grant the variance for the rear yard only. The side
yard variance will not be needed since you have agreed to move
the pool in 2 feet closer.

Mr. Warren: Aye.
Mr. DellaCorte: Aye.

We needed 10 more feet on the back line to expand our deck into an
addition for a bedroom.
We have been out there and looking at it, this is an older house that
was there before zoning. The house has been put all on one portion
of the lot leaving little room in the rear. Is there anyone in the
audience who have any comments or questions? Hearing none.
Did the septic guy come yet?
I'm still waiting and I even called him today.
You'll need that ok'd before you get a CO.

Mr. & Mrs. Martin
The land behind us belongs to the Town of Wappinger. I called the
town and I was told I needed 20 feet to the rear and now I found out
I need 40 feet.
You poured the foundation without a permit?
I didn't think that I needed one for that. I only poured the slab but I
have no lumber yet.
Your really pouring it at your own risk in case the variance doesn't
come through.
I know but I only thought I needed 20 feet.
Which recreation is near you?
I don't know ifits true or not. I know Victor Gannody who
developed that whole property and he told me that it was town
property in the back.
We'll do a site visit on Saturday at 9:00 am. We will schedule a
public hearing on May 11, 2004.
Are you Tracy?
Yes.
I'm Renanto.
Will we know where your property line is?
There are red flags in the woods.
