[Amended 3-10-1983 by L.L. No. 3-1983; 3-9-1989 by L.L. No. 2-1989]
The subdivider shall, within six months after
the approval of the preliminary plat, file with the Planning Board
an application, in duplicate, for approval of the subdivision plat
in final form, using the approved application blank available from
the Clerk of the Planning Board. If the final plat is not submitted
within six months after the approval of the preliminary plat, the
Planning Board may refuse to approve the final plat and require resubmission
of the preliminary plat.
A subdivider intending to submit a proposed
subdivision plat for the approval of the Planning Board shall provide
the Clerk of the Board with a copy of the application and five copies,
one copy on Mylar, of the plat; the original and two true copies of
all offers of cession, covenants, agreements and deed; and two prints
of all construction drawings shall also be submitted.
The time of submission of the subdivision plat shall be considered to be the date on which the application for approval of the subdivision plat, complete and accompanied by the required fee and all data required by Article
XIV of these regulations, has been filed with the Clerk of the Planning Board.
Water and sewer facility proposals contained
in the subdivision plat shall be properly endorsed and approved by
the Rensselaer County Department of Health. Applications for approval
of plans for sewer or water facilities will be filed by the subdivider
with all necessary Town, county and state agencies. Endorsement and
approval by the Rensselaer County Department of Health shall be secured
by the subdivider before official submission of the final subdivision
plat.
Within 45 days of the submission of a plat in final form for approval, a hearing shall be held by the Planning Board. This hearing shall be advertised at least once in a newspaper of general circulation in the Town at least five days before such hearing; provided, however, that when the Planning Board deems the final plat to be in substantial agreement with a preliminary plat approved under Article
V and modified in accordance with requirements of such approval if such preliminary plat has been approved with modification, the Planning Board may waive the requirement for such public hearing.
