(2) 
The erection of all buildings and structures on any lot or parcel where the use of the primary building or structure is wholly residential with four or more units.

Should the Planning Commission need an additional 30 days to consider the application, then it may do so by a resolution requiring a majority vote of the entire Commission, which resolution shall state the reasons for the required extension of time for review.
(7) 
Review of amendments to an approved site plan shall be acted upon in the same manner as the review of the original site plan.
(8) 
Improvements and performance guarantees. Following approval of the site plan by the Planning Commission, the applicant shall follow the procedure set forth below:
[Amended 6-24-2019 by L.L. No. 3-2019]
(a) 
The applicant shall file with the Department of Planning a performance deposit form and submit a performance deposit to cover the cost of the required improvements in an amount set by the Director of Planning. After the performance deposit form and deposit has been reviewed and approved by the Director of Planning and the Director of Public Works, the performance deposit will be filed with the City Comptroller.
(b) 
Said performance deposit may be in cash or an irrevocable letter of credit in form and substance satisfactory to the Corporation Counsel of the City of Peekskill and the City Engineer. All improvements on public property or necessary to serve the public at large must be secured by cash or an irrevocable letter of credit. The remainder of the performance deposit not covered by cash or an irrevocable letter of credit may be in the form of a bond satisfactory in form and substance to the Corporation Counsel. Their cost shall be provided by the applicant on the most current performance deposit form and certified by the Director of Public Works and the Director of Planning. Such exterior improvements covered by the performance deposit include, but are not limited to, proposed screening, landscaping (including planting and maintenance thereof for one year), stormwater drainage systems, public and private streets and drives, water systems, sanitary sewer systems, outdoor lighting and off-street parking areas, loading areas, means of vehicular access and egress to and from the site onto public streets, formal street dedication for public roads, recreation areas, including playgrounds, garbage collection stations, retaining walls including finishes, Knox-Boxes® and fire alarm systems, if any. Other items deemed appropriate by the City Manager may be added to the performance deposit form.
[Amended 2-22-2021 by L.L. No. 1-2021]
(c) 
Said deposit shall be conditioned upon the property owner or developer completing the work enumerated on the performance deposit sheet form as set forth on the approved site plan in a manner satisfactory to the Director of Planning and the Director of Public Works of the City of Peekskill. Upon completion, 10% of each item shall be retained for improvements functioning properly for a period of one year from their completion. In default thereof, the deposit shall be forfeited and the City shall be entitled to the full amount thereof and shall use the amount thereof to complete the work not done and to recover the costs thereof from the deposit or to make such improvements as may be necessary to assure proper functioning of said improvement. However, if any amount of money remains after the City has completed said work, such excess money shall be returned to the entity posting the required deposit.
(d) 
Said deposit may be reduced upon the certification of the Director of Public Works and the Director of Planning that a particular item or items in the requirements of the Planning Commission's approval have been satisfactorily completed. The first reduction request shall be drawn down from the bonded portion of the performance deposit and shall be in the ratio that the completed item or items bear to the total estimated cost of the required improvements but not less than 50% of the amount of the original performance deposit. A second reduction request shall be in the ratio that the completed item or items bear to the total estimated cost of the required improvements but not less than 75% of the amount of the original performance deposit. A final reduction request shall be in the ratio that the completed item or items bear to the total estimated cost of the required improvements but not less than 100% of the amount of the original performance deposit, less the retainage of 10%.
(9) 
Time limit on validity of approval. Approval of a site plan by the Planning Commission shall be valid for a period of six months from the date thereof for the purpose of obtaining a building permit. Failure to secure a permit during the period shall cause the site plan approval to become null and void. Upon application and upon a finding by the Department of Planning that the conditions prescribed in conjunction with the issuance of the original approval have been maintained and that no physical changes or amendments in the project site, the original plan or the immediate environs have occurred since the time of original approval, the Director of the Department of Planning shall have the right to extend the period of approval for an additional six months. Upon application, the Planning Commission shall have the right to extend the period of approval to not more than two years from the date of original approval. After expiration of the two-year extension, the Planning Commission may, without hearing and without any further extension, subject to the payment of a renewal fee, renew an application approval for a period not to exceed one year upon a finding that the conditions prescribed in conjunction with the issuance of the original approval have been maintained and that only minor physical changes or amendments in the project site, the original plan or the immediate environs have occurred since the time of original approval. It shall be the responsibility of all applicants to demonstrate compliance with all conditions of approval to the satisfaction of the City Building Inspector and/or Director of Planning.
[Amended 2-22-2021 by L.L. No. 1-2021]
(10) 
An application for site development plan approval shall be considered to be incomplete, shall not be accepted for review and shall not be entertained if it is in relation to any property:
(a) 
Which, at the time of the application, is in violation of this chapter or the New York State Uniform Fire Prevention and Building Code except in furtherance of curing the violation; or

A. 
Upon application and after public notice and hearing, the Common Council or Planning Commission, where so designated in this chapter, may authorize by resolution the Director of Planning to issue a special permit for any of the uses for which this chapter requires such special permit in the district in which such use is proposed to be located. Prior to authorizing such special permit, the Common Council or Planning Commission shall seek an advisory opinion from the Director of Planning. In authorizing the issuance of a special permit, the Council or Commission shall take into consideration the public health, safety and welfare and shall prescribe appropriate conditions and safeguards to ensure the accomplishment of the following objectives:
(1) 
All proposed structures, equipment or material shall be readily accessible for fire and police protection.
(2) 
The proposed use shall be of such location, size and character, and the nature and intensity of the operations involved in it or conducted in connection with it shall be such, that it will be in harmony with the appropriate and orderly development of the district in which it is proposed to be situated and will not be detrimental to the orderly development of adjacent properties in accordance with the zoning classification of such properties.
(3) 
Operations in connection with any special use will not be more objectionable to nearby properties by reason of noise, fumes, vibration or other characteristics than would be the operations of any permitted use not requiring a special permit.
(4) 
Parking and loading areas will be of adequate size for the particular use, properly located and suitably screened from adjoining uses, and the entrance and exit drives shall be laid out so as to achieve maximum and adequate safety.
(5) 
In addition to the above, in the case of any use located in or directly adjacent to a residential district:
(a) 
The location and size of such use, the nature and intensity of operations involved in or conducted in connection therewith, its site layout and its relation to access streets shall be such that both pedestrian and vehicular traffic to and from the use and the assembly of persons in connection therewith will not be hazardous or inconvenient to or incongruous with said residential district or conflict with the normal traffic of the neighborhood; and
(b) 
The location and height of buildings, the location, nature and height of walls and fences and the nature and extent of screening and landscaping on the site shall be such that the use will not hinder or discourage the appropriate development and use of adjacent land and buildings or impair the value thereof.
B. 
Every application for a special permit shall be made out in duplicate and shall be accompanied by six copies of a plot plan containing the same information as required in § 575-49B hereof in connection with an application for a building permit, unless a site plan review is also required, in which case one application incorporating relevant items outlined in § 575-56E may be included.
C. 
The procedure for a special permit shall be the same as for a site plan review [§ 575-56E(1) to (6) and (8) to (10)], except that where § 575-56E refers to the Planning Commission, the Common Council shall be substituted; and where § 575-56E(9) provides time limits for approval by the Planning Commission, those time limits shall not apply to the approval of a special permit by the Common Council. Where the Planning Commission is authorized to issue a special permit, the special permit and site plan review may occur simultaneously.
D. 
A separate procedure as provided in § 575-28E(10) shall be followed for a special permit to allow planned residential development and as provided in § 575-43C to allow waterfront district development.
E. 
In authorizing the issuance of a special permit, it shall be the duty of the Council or Planning Commission to attach such conditions and safeguards as may be required in order that the result of its action may, to the maximum extent possible, ensure initial and continual conformance to all applicable standards and requirements and further the general objectives of this chapter. In all cases, the approval authority shall retain continuing jurisdiction. It shall be the responsibility of all applicants to demonstrate compliance with all conditions of approval to the satisfaction of the City Building Inspector and/or Director of Planning.
[Amended 2-22-2021 by L.L. No. 1-2021]
F. 
Prior to final action, the Common Council or Planning Commission, where so designated, shall refer any matter involving any of the areas specified in Article XII, § 575-58E(1)(a) through (e), to the Westchester County Planning Board in accordance with Section 451 of Article 15 of the Westchester County Administrative Code.
