The Town of Babylon Accessory Apartment Review Board on Sept. not specified placed the accessory‑apartment application for 15 Bridal Court on reserve for further investigation after neighbors raised safety and enforcement concerns.

Neighbor Linda Reaney, who said she has lived at 21 Maida Court for nearly 40 years, told the board the house in question has "a long history of property neglect and illegal activity" and that "over the course of the past year, there have been apartment listings for this residence" — including listings for up to three units. Reaney asked how the town would ensure enforcement and whether inspections occur periodically.

Andrea Kanakis, a neighbor who identified herself as a licensed realtor, said she saw multiple online listings on Zillow and MLS and that she "doesn't see the owner there all the time," adding that converting a single‑family home into multiple rentals would be "unacceptable" on a block with young families.

Angel Aponte, the agent representing the owner, acknowledged past problems brought to the town's attention and said the second‑story unit "has not been rented out"; he said any online listing was removed after the town contacted the realtor and that final inspections and required code upgrades (including fire‑rating the boiler room and removing kitchens from open basement space) were completed. The owner confirmed he lives at the property and said the basement contains no rental‑eligible kitchen.

After board members questioned records about an additional address linked in town files and discussed neighborhood complaints, a motion to place the application on reserve for further investigation was moved by Carolyn and seconded by Salva; the board voted in favor. The board recorded that the town would follow up on the outstanding residency and listing questions before taking final action.

The hearing record shows neighbors provided copies of the online listings to the supervisor's office and the board. The application remains on reserve pending the town's follow‑up and any required enforcement or clarification of residence records.
