Applicants: Andrew and Loren Pudlewski SBL# 202.00-2-57.1 The applicants at 6113 Vermont Hill Road, South Wales, New York would like to appeal the allowance for a detached accessory building located in front of the primary building: Wales Code Section 200-22 - Area Variance. 4-2026 Public Hearing: The Chairman invited the Applicants to present the proposed project. The Board confirmed that there have been no significant changes to the proposal since the previous workshop meeting. The Applicants stated they sent out all the certified neighbor notification letters were sent out. No objections or negative feedback were received. There was one neighbor that inquired about the project but none that objected to the project. There is landscaping in the plans for the future. It was suggested by the Board that landscaping would better screen the structure from the road.

Page 2

No additional public comments or questions were raised. Board Discussion: The structure will be approximately 25' x 50'. The placement and orientation were reviewed and the Chairman asked if any of the Board Members drove by and saw the proposed project area which was in the affirmative. It was stated that the location is set back from the road and positioned near existing trees. There were questions raised about the exterior aesthetics of the project. The Applicants explained that the exterior color, which is named clay, will match the house. A future roof plan will also align with the home. Setback from property line confirmed to be approximately 20+ feet. The removal of some trees was discussed, and no major concerns were raised. The proposed structure is consistent with similar accessory buildings in the area. Board Deliberation: The Chairman explained the Board deliberation process. He stated that the questions asked can be all Aye or Nay and still have an opinion of opposing or granting a variance. He stated the Board will need a few minutes to go over the five questions then we will deliberate. The Board reviewed the application according to the required five factors: 1. Whether undesirable change would be produced in character of neighborhood or a detriment to nearby properties. ZBA Chairman Edward Wilkowlaski - No ZBA Board Member Mark Geitler - No ZBA Board Member Russell Clother, Jr. - No ZBA Board Member Kevin Ingraham — No ZBA Board Member James Cornell — No Reasoning: There are many properties with barns in front of the house. In line with the area. It fits the character of the area. The accessory building is far from the road and no neighbors complained. There are many examples of buildings located in front of the main home. Also, size, color all matches the home. 2. Whether benefit sought by applicants can be achieved by a feasible alternative to the variance. ZBA Chairman Edward Wilkowlaski - Yes ZBA Board Member Mark Geitler - No ZBA Board Member Russell Clother, Jr. - No ZBA Board Member Kevin Ingraham — No ZBA Board Member James Cornell — No

Page 3

Reasoning: Not realistic and would be cost prohibitive, other option would be over septic. The site does not permit. Due to the topography of the land this would be the feasible location. While they could place the building in a different location, this would be very cost prohibitive. 3. Whether the requested variance is substantial: ZBA Chairman Edward Wilkowlaski - No ZBA Board Member Mark Geitler - Yes ZBA Board Member Russell Clother, Jr. - Yes ZBA Board Member Kevin Ingraham — No ZBA Board Member James Cornell — No Reasoning: It is less than 300 feet from the road, but not super close, closer to 100 feet. The only issue is from the road, not from property line. All variances are substantial. This variance will not impact the character of the neighborhood in a substantial way. Yes and no, while the request is straight against code, it is a very well thought out plan and the reasons to support it are in the Applicants favor. 4. Would the variance have an adverse impact on the physical or environmental conditions in the neighborhood: ZBA Chairman Edward Wilkowlaski - No ZBA Board Member Mark Geitler - No ZBA Board Member Russell Clother, Jr. - No ZBA Board Member Kevin Ingraham — No ZBA Board Member James Cornell — No Reasoning: No traffic impact and inline with area. Did not hear anything from neighbors. Private use. This building and use are common in the area. Project will blend in very well with character at the area. 5. Whether the alleged difficulty was self-created: ZBA Chairman Edward Wilkowlaski - Yes ZBA Board Member Mark Geitler - Yes ZBA Board Member Russell Clother, Jr. - Yes ZBA Board Member Kevin Ingraham — Yes ZBA Board Member James Cornell ~ Yes Reasoning: Applicants could choose not to build a barn. Majority of variances are self- created. Due to the location, use of desired location by the Applicants, this is self-created.

Town of Wales Zoning Board of Appeals RESOLUTION NO. 4-2026 IN THE MATTER OF THE APPLICATION OF ANDREW & LOREN PUDLEWSKI FOR AN AREA VARIANCE PROPERTY ADDRESS: , NY TAX MAP NUMBER OR SBL#: 202.00-2-57.1 DATE: June 17, 2026 WHEREAS, an application was filed with the Zoning Board of Appeals of the Town of Wales by Andrew and Loren Pudlewski for an area variance for the property located at 6113 Vermont Hill Road, South Wales, NY. SBL# 202.00-2-57.1; and WHEREAS, the application requests an area variance from Section 200-22 of the Town of Wales Zoning Code to appeal the allowance for a detached accessory building located in front of the primary building; and WHEREAS, the Board received a referral from the Building Inspector/Code Enforcement Officer Dan Whitehead indicating that the project is not in compliance with the zoning law and requires an area variance; and WHEREAS, a public hearing on the application was held on June 17, 2026, at which the Board heard testimony and received comments from the Applicants, neighbors, and other interested parties; and WHEREAS, the Board has reviewed all applicable materials, including a Short Environmental Assessment Form, photos, and deed and has duly considered the standards for an area variance as set forth in New York State Town Law § 267-b, weighing the benefit to the Applicants against any detriment to the health, safety, and welfare of the community. NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED, that the Zoning Board of Appeals, having considered the entire record of the proceedings, made the following findings and hereby approves the application: 1. Undesirable Change or Detriment to Properties: The Board finds that the granting of this variance will not produce an undesirable change in the character of the neighborhood or a detriment to nearby properties. Reasoning: There are many properties with barns in front of the house. In line with the area. It fits the character of the area. The accessory building is far from the road and no neighbors complained. There are many examples of buildings located in front of the main home. Also, size, color all matches the home. 2. Feasible Alternative: The Board finds that the benefit sought by the Applicants cannot be achieved by some other feasible method. Reasoning: Not realistic and would be cost prohibitive, other option would be over septic. The site does not permit. Due to the topography of the land this would be the feasible location. While they could place the building in a different location, this would be very cost prohibitive. 3. Substantiality of Variance: The Board finds that the requested area variance is not substantial. Reasoning: It is less than 300 feet from the road, but not super close, closer to 100 feet. The only issue is from the road, not from property line. All variances are substantial. This variance will not impact the character of the neighborhood in a substantial way. Yes and no, while the request is straight against code, it is a very well thought out plan and the reasons to support it are in the Applicants favor.

4. Adverse Environmental/Physical Impact: The Board finds that the proposed variance will not have an adverse effect or impact on the physical or environmental conditions in the neighborhood. Reasoning: No traffic impact and in line with the area. Did not hear anything from neighbors. Private use. This building and use are common in the area. Project will blend in very well with character at the area. 5. Self-Created Difficulty: The Board finds that the alleged difficulty was self-created. Reasoning: Applicants could choose not to build a barn. Majority of variances are self-created. Due to the location, use of desired location by the Applicants, this is self-created. BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED, that the variance is granted. BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED, that a copy of this resolution shall be filed in the office of the Town of Wales Town Clerk and the Town of Wales Building Department.
