[Amended 3-16-1992 by L.L. No. 4-1992]
By authority of the resolution adopted by the Board of Trustees on the third day of April 1972 pursuant to the provisions of § 7-700 et seq. of the Village Law, the Village Planning Board has the power and authority to approve or disapprove plats for subdivision within the Village.
A. 
In order that land in the Village may be subdivided in accordance with the policy set forth herein, these regulations are hereby adopted and shall be known and may be cited as the "Village Land Subdivision Regulations."
B. 
These Land Subdivision Regulations were adopted by the Planning Board after a duly advertised public hearing. They were then approved by the Board of Trustees on June 5, 1972, at which time they went into effect.
It is declared to be the policy of the Village Planning Board to consider land subdivision plats as part of a plan for the orderly, efficient and economical development of the Village. This shall be interpreted to include the following objectives, which shall guide the Planning Board's decisions:
A. 
Land to be subdivided shall be of such character that it can be used safely for building purposes without danger to health or peril from fire, flood or other menace.
B. 
Proper provision shall be made for drainage, water supply, sewerage and other needed improvements and utilities.
C. 
Proposed streets shall compose a convenient system conforming to the Official Map and shall be properly related to the proposals shown on the Village Plan.
[Amended 3-16-1992 by L.L. No. 4-1992]
D. 
Streets shall be of such width, grade and location as to accommodate prospective traffic, to afford adequate light and air and to facilitate fire protection and snow removal.
E. 
Park areas of suitable location, size and character for playground or other recreational purposes shall be shown on the subdivision plat wherever appropriate.
F. 
The proposed development shall be aesthetically compatible with the existing development and character of the Village.
Should any of these regulations conflict or be inconsistent with any provision of the Village Law or Village ordinances, such provision of the Village Law or ordinance shall apply.
Nothing in these regulations shall prohibit the subdivider from placing self-imposed restrictions not in violation of these regulations on the development. Such restrictions, however, shall be indicated on the plat.
