HEARING: Notice is hereby given that the Zoning Board of Appeals of the Village of Fair Haven will hold a public hearing on May 2, 2017 7:00 p.m. at the village hall meeting room located at 14523 Cayuga Street, Fair Haven NY to hear the request of John H. Gadjo for an area variance for relief from provisions of Zoning §150-9 to construct a garage on his property located at 14636 Ingersoll Road tax map #8.11-1-69.12 Mr. Gadjo was not present at the hearing and is requesting a 10’ set back from the road to build his proposed garage. This request would place his garage in the right-of-way. The lack of Mr. Gadjo’s presence makes it difficult for the ZBA to make a decision as they can’t grant a variance in the right-of-way and are unsure of his intentions. Board member suggestions: The area of the proposed construction should be staked out Suggestions from the audience: Mayor Basile suggested drawings be to scale on a copy of a survey map should be required.
