The inclusion of a Research and General Office District (hereinafter designated as the R-O District) as part of the comprehensive plan of land use embodied in this chapter is in accord with the development policy of the Village of Lake Success, as more specifically set forth in §
105-92.
[Amended 7-19-1971; 8-16-1971; 3-22-1976 by L.L. No. 2-1976]
Boundaries for the Research and General Office
R-O District shall be as follows:
A. That area bounded on the north by Marcus Avenue, on
the east by Lakeville Road, on the south by property of the Long Island
Jewish - Hillside Medical Center, as presently existing, and on the
west by the boundary line of the City of New York; and
B. That area bounded on the north by the south service
road of the Long Island Expressway, on the east by Hollow Lane, on
the south by property belonging to Union Free School District No.

Only such research and general office uses as

upon recommendation of the Planning Board, as being in compliance
with the development policy of the Village as hereinabove referred
to shall be permitted, upon the condition that they shall comply in
all respects with the performance standards and regulations hereinafter
set forth.
The performance standards set forth in §§
105-95 and
105-97 through
105-107, inclusive, in Article
XIII of the Village Building Zone Ordinance are hereby incorporated by reference and are made applicable to the R-O District.
All residential, commercial and industrial uses,
other than research and general office use, shall be prohibited in
the R-O District for the reasons that they are inappropriate, not
in harmony with the development policy of the Village, in conflict
with the purposes of establishing an R-O District and tend to create
an influx of traffic at inappropriate times.
With respect to any application for a building
or use permit or a certificate of occupancy for any use in the R-O
District, the Planning Board or the Building Inspector may require
the applicant, at its own expenses, to provide the Planning Board
with such evidence as they or he may deem necessary to determine whether
or not the proposed use will conform to the development policy of
the Village and the performance standards set forth above, and in
connection therewith, the Planning Board or the Building Inspector
may obtain expert advice at the expense of the applicant, and payment
in advance of the amount of such expense shall be a condition of further
consideration of the application. Where appropriate, the Planning
Board may require the installation, maintenance and operation, by
the applicant at applicant's expense, of continuous recording instruments
to demonstrate the operation or effect of operations of any machines
or devices used to control or lessen noise, vibration, glare, air
pollution, water pollution, fire hazards or safety hazards.
[Amended 7-19-1971]
Minimum plot areas shall be 4 1/4 acres.
No more than one building may be constructed on each plot. The Planning
Board may approve one plot having an area of less than 4 1/4
acres, but more than three acres, as part of a subdivision plan, the
individual plots of which shall average at least 4 1/4 acres
in area.

unless the public sanitary sewerage facilities serving such building
