Neighbors complain of loud music, privacy and overcrowding as ZBA reviews Araya egress/coverage variances
Summary
Neighbors pressed the Town of Babylon Zoning Board of Appeals over loud music, a camera facing a neighbor's yard and proposed egress-window placement while the board reviewed variances for a North Babylon property; the board reserved decision and attached conditions limiting basement kitchens and enclosed decks.
The Town of Babylon Zoning Board of Appeals on Jan. 21 heard heated public comment over a variance request for a North Babylon property at an application hearing the board later reserved for decision.
Gustavo Munoz, speaking for the applicants in application 25241, told the board that egress windows were proposed on a side elevation because “there is no way to put them in the back,” citing the house's configuration and an existing one-story rear addition. He said the family intends to use basement rooms for sleeping and would install a three-piece bathroom, but insisted the house would remain a single-family dwelling.
