Plaintiffs had commenced an action seeking to recover damages arising from the alleged “illegal operation of a business on property adjacent to their home.” The plaintiffs alleged that a defendant tenant (tenant) was conducting a commercial business at both 16 and 18 Underhill Road. The plaintiffs’ property was allegedly adjacent to 16 and 18 Underhill Road, Glen Cove, New York. Those properties are located in a residential zoning district which prohibits the operation of a commercial business in a residential zone.

The tenant’s “business involved the transportation of large trees and landscaping/construction refuse to and from the property for purposes of dumping and converting it to firewood and wood chips, the operation of heavy duty commercial equipment and machines and the operation of large commercial vehicles on and through 16 and 18 Underhill Road.” The plaintiffs alleged that essentially, such business was operated all day, all night and weekends and that it created a nuisance and caused a diminution in the value of the plaintiffs’ property.
