ZBA approves front-deck variance for Windwood Drive homeowner
Summary
The Zoning Board voted unanimously to grant Lisa Rinaldo an area variance to keep and formalize a front masonry deck at 29 Windwood Drive (8.5 by 8.5). The Board found the request consistent with neighborhood character and a Type II SEQRA action.
Owner Lisa Rinaldo appeared to request area variances to formalize an existing front-deck structure (8.5 by 8.5) that was present when she purchased the home. The application included 42 mailed notices and photos of neighboring homes with similar features.
Chairman Scalzo said he viewed the neighborhood and found similar features already present; the Board concluded the change would be desirable or consistent with neighboring properties and not substantial. Dr. Donna Rein moved to approve, Mr. James Politi seconded, and the Board voted unanimously to grant the variance.
