Board closes hearing, clears Pudding Hill corner homeowners to keep sculpture and patio
Summary
The ZBA closed the hearing for 29 Pudding Hill Lane and approved variances to legalize a six‑foot‑four sculpture and an existing patio; attorney Nancy Marshall told the board the artwork is concealed by a privet hedge and the patio preexisted the current owners.
At the June 12 meeting the East Hampton ZBA closed the hearing and heard final arguments from attorney Nancy Marshall on behalf of Pudding Hill Corner LLC, the owners of 29 Pudding Hill Lane.
Marshall told the board that the freestanding sculpture (6 feet 4 inches tall) is sited well inside the lot and is screened from Pudding Hill Lane and Georgia Road by dense privet hedging; the applicants requested front‑yard variances because the sculpture sits as close as 19.9 feet and 36.7 feet from the front lot lines where a 55‑ft setback applies. She also said the slate patio at the rear has existed for years and requested a 3.6‑ft rear‑yard variance to legalize the patio at 16.4 ft from the rear property line. Marshall said neighbors submitted letters in support and that the sculpture and patio cause no adverse environmental impacts.
Board members said they had no objections on the record; the board moved to close the hearing and recorded the vote.
