A. 
Where the Planning Board finds that compliance with these regulations would cause unusual hardship or extraordinary difficulties because of exceptional or unique conditions of topography, access, location, shape, size, drainage or other physical features of the site, the minimum requirements of the regulations may be modified to mitigate the hardship, provided that the public interest is protected and the subdivision is in keeping with the general spirit and intent of the regulations.
B. 
No such modification may be granted if it would have the effect of nullifying the intent and purpose of the Official Map, the Zoning Code or these regulations.
A. 
The Planning Board may waive the requirements for such subdivision improvements as in its judgment are not requisite in the interest of the public health, safety and general welfare.
B. 
The Planning Board may also waive the requirements for such subdivision improvements as in its judgment are inappropriate because of inadequacy or lack of connecting facilities adjacent or in proximity to the subdivision.
In granting waivers or modifications, the Planning Board may require such reasonable conditions as will, in its judgment, secure substantially the objectives of the standards or requirements so waived or modified.
A. 
When authorized by the Village Board through resolution, the Planning Board may, at the time of plat approval, modify applicable provisions of the Zoning Code. Such modifications shall be made only for land zoned for residential purposes and only for such areas of the Village as shall be specified by the Village Board in its resolution of authorization.
B. 
If the subdivider makes written application for the use of this procedure, it may be followed at the discretion of the Planning Board if, in its judgment, its application would benefit the Village.
C. 
The subdivider shall submit a proposed site plan showing areas within which structures may be located, the height and spacing of buildings, open spaces and their landscaping, off-street open and enclosed parking spaces, streets, driveways and all other physical features of the proposed development. The subdivider shall also submit a statement setting forth the nature of any requested zoning modifications, changes or supplementations as are not shown on the site plan.
D. 
The dwelling units permitted may be, at the discretion of the Planning Board and subject to any conditions set forth by the Village Board in its resolution, in detached, semidetached, attached or multistory structures.
E. 
In the event that the application of this procedure results in a final plat showing lands available for park, recreation, open space or other municipal purposes directly related to the final plat, then the Planning Board, as a condition of final plat approval, shall establish such conditions on the ownership, use and maintenance of such lands as it deems necessary to assure the preservation of such lands for their intended purposes. The Planning Board may require that such conditions shall be approved for recording.
F. 
Before any such modification is made in the zoning regulations, there shall be a public hearing on the proposed site plan by the Planning Board as required in § 7-738 of the Village Law.
G. 
On the recording of the final plat in the office of the Onondaga County Clerk, a copy shall be filed with the Village Clerk, who shall make appropriate notations and references thereto in the Zoning Code or Official Map. Such final plat shall then be reduced to 11 inches by 17 inches, and three linen or canvas-backed copies shall be supplied to the Village Clerk.
