Third Petition to Change Osborn Property Zoning Set for Sept. 10 PLAN SUPERMART ON SITE: BELLPORT — A week from toda y at 8 p. m. in the Community center the Bellport Village board will hold a public hearing on the third petition it has re- ceived this year for a change of zone from Residence C to Business E on part of what is known locally as the Osborn property, although the land has changed hands many times since the last Osborn owner. The property has a frontage of 246 feet on South Country road beginning at a point 100 feet west of the intersection of South Country road and Station road. This latest petition, filed by the Janevan Realty Corporation , asks for the enactment of an amend- ment to the Building Zo ne ordinance of the village to change the zone to Business \E\ from Residence \C\ and that the zoning map be changed accordingly, describing the entire property with the exception of two triangu- lar pieces on the north and west , then adding a clause \ expressly excepting therefrom as m u c h thereof presently in the Business 'E' zone. \ Most of the irregularly- shaped property is now zoned for business , only a portion in the northwest part and the two pieces along the north and west boun- dary being zoned Residence \C. \ The two previous petitions , filed b y the former owner , Jomah As- sociates , had asked for a change of zone to Business \E\ on the north- west portion to allow for the con- struction of a business building further back on the property and provide a larger parking area in front. The first petition , considered at' a public hearing in February, at which villagers present and by petition overwhelmingly expressed opposition , was later withdrawn b y Jomah Associates. A second petition was then filed and was considered at a public hearing in May. Again strong opposition was heard and the Village board denied the change. The next move was the sale of the property to the Janevan Realty Corporation by Joman As- sociates , followed by tho destruc- tion July 6 of the old Osborn house which had stood on the front part of the property for over 125 years. A group of village residents had tried to save the old house and have it converted to a village museum , but without success be- cause of the large amount of money that it would have taken to move the building. Rumored for several month s that a chain food store was plan- ned for construction on the proper- ty, it became more apparent last week when a large sign , \Coming soon , a 12 , 000-S((uare-foot Bohack , \ was erected on the property. According to local village con- versations , those who opposed the change of zone at the two previous public hearings are still opposed a/id again as before the two pre- vious public hearings , a petition of opposition is collecting signa- ture s of residents at Trotta Bros, market. The Village Planning board , to which all three petitions wore re- ferred , has for the third time recommended that the change be granted. Presbyterian Church Bldg.
