[Amended 2-14-2007 by L.L. No. 1-2007]
In order to ensure that the comfort, safety, welfare and property rights of the residents of the Town of Clarence are protected, the Town Board may authorize and direct the issuance of a special exception use permit for uses that require certain mitigating conditions specific to their design and/or operation. Such conditions ensure compatibility among building types so that different uses may be located in proximity to one another without adverse effects to neighboring residential uses and each other. This chapter specifies the minimum requirements which must be met by all the uses listed in the uses requiring a special exception use permit section for each zoning district in Article III, to be considered by the Town Board.
[Amended 2-14-2007 by L.L. No. 1-2007]
A. 
Applications to the Town Board for a permit authorizing a use indicated as a special exception use shall be made directly to the said Board on forms provided by the Planning and Zoning Department. The Town Board may refer the application to the Planning Board for review and comment. The Planning Board shall submit written comments to the Town Board on the proposal within 30 days of referral. The granting by the Town Board of a special exception use permit shall require the concurring votes of four members of the Board in favor of the applicant, after a public hearing advertised in accordance with Town procedures. Special exception use permits shall not be deemed to constitute a variance and shall not be conditioned upon an appeal from the denial of building permit or use permit by the Building Inspector. For just cause, including but not limited to negative impacts to the health, safety, welfare and property rights of the neighborhood for which the use is proposed, the Town Board has the authority to deny such special exception use permits.

Multiple-family developments will only be allowed in the Commercial, Restricted Business and Traditional Neighborhood Districts as described herein.
A. 
The purpose of a multiple-family development special exception use permit is to guide the future establishment of multiple-family developments within the Town of Clarence. Multiple-family developments shall not be considered an "as of right" use within any zoning classification.
B. 
The Town Board shall determine the Town-wide placement of such a multiple-family development based upon its design features, and its impacts upon the community character, infrastructure and fiscal sustainability of the Town.
C. 
The intent of this section is to provide design standards to ensure that multiple-family developments are properly integrated into the character of the Town of Clarence by providing for:
(1) 
Preservation of valuable commercial property within the Town for development of commercial uses.
(2) 
Preservation of open space.
(3) 
Harmony with the rural and suburban character and scenic qualities of the Town.
(4) 
Facilitation of interconnectivity within the multiple-family development between commercial and residential components.

Multiple-family developments in Commercial and Restricted Business Zones.
(1) 
In order to preserve the long-term viability of the Commercial and Restricted Business zoning classifications for commercial uses, provide a balance to residential growth in the community, and avoid the concentration of multiple-family developments in a particular area of the Town, the maximum number of multiple-family developments that can be approved on any shall be restricted as follows:
(a) 
Multiple-family developments will only be allowed on properties with sewer access as approved by the Town Board. The maximum density for multiple-family developments with sanitary sewer access shall be eight units per acre.

(d) 
The density calculation and total number of residential units is only to be determined by the residential component of that portion of project site being utilized for the multiple-family development.
(e) 
Within the residential component, there shall be a maximum of four residential units per building. Upon recommendation of the Planning Board, the Town Board may consider exceptions to maximum residential units per building, as documented by the applicant for purposes relating to the physical or developmental health needs or government-recognized financial needs of the intended occupants.
(f) 
Buildings within a multiple-family development shall be limited to a maximum of two stories.
(g) 
Exclusively residential buildings within a multiple-family development shall have a sufficient setback from the fronting road to preserve the open character of the Town.

(h) 
Scale and design must be compatible with community features and all other standards, as identified for Commercial or Restricted Business Districts in §§ 229-83 through 229-90.2 and §§ 229-75 through 229-82.2 of this chapter.
(i) 
All multiple-family developments shall have pedestrian connectivity integrating the site with its surrounding environment. Where appropriate, sidewalks or recreational trails shall be created, extended and connected to existing or planned off-site sidewalks or trails.
(2) 
Multiple-family developments will require 30% of the overall development to be preserved as permanent open space.
(3) 
Part or all of the required commercial component can be preserved as open space for later commercial development. This open space reserved for commercial use is in addition to the 30% required for the overall development.
(4) 
Upon recommendation of the Planning Board, the Town Board will designate the area of the development that is to be reserved for commercial use as open space at the time of the approval of the special exception use permit.
