For the purpose of establishing and maintaining sound and stable
development and to conserve property values generally, this Zoning
Ordinance shall not be amended except to correct a manifest error
in the Zoning Ordinance or to provide for regulations more appropriate
to an area because of changed or changing conditions.
From time to time, at intervals of not more than five years,
the City of Watervliet shall reexamine the provisions of this chapter
and the location of district boundary lines. This periodic review
shall be conducted by a committee comprised of two members of the
Planning Board; two members of the Zoning Board of Appeals; representatives
from the Planning Department, Building Department and Corporation
Counsel; and not more than two members of the community appointed
by the City Council. The committee shall submit a report to the City
Council recommending such changes or amendments, if any, which may
be desirable in the interest of public welfare, convenience and necessity.
