Judgment affirmed, with one bill of costs to respondents and intervenor-respondent appearing separately and filing separate briefs.

The Board’s determination that the application was for a use variance and was not to continue a preexisting nonconforming use was supported by substantial evidence, as was its conclusion that petitioners failed to demonstrate unnecessary hardship.
Petitioners’ remaining contentions have been considered and found to be without merit. Thompson, J. P., Brown, Weinstein and Eiber, JJ., concur.
