Summary
Robert Held told the ZBA he wants to build onto his Deer Park property to store a personal car collection; the board discussed setback adjustments and conditions (no plumbing/no commercial work in garage) and kept the record open for revised drawings.
Robert Held appeared before the Town of Babylon Zoning Board of Appeals on Jan. 21 seeking variances for setbacks and a taller garage to store a personal car collection and recreational vehicles.
Held said the proposed garage has a 14-foot height and that moving the structure forward or shortening it slightly could reduce the required variances; he told the board he planned to remove an accessory shed and an ATV trailer existing on the lot. Board members asked for revised hard-copy drawings and confirmed conditions: no plumbing or commercial automotive work in the garage and the second-story deck must remain unenclosed.
The board closed the hearing, kept the record open for revised plans and drawings, and reserved decision.
What happens next: The applicant must submit revised hard-copy plans showing proposed changes; the board will review the updated drawings before issuing a written decision.
