which is to be subdivided in relation to the entire tract and the
distance to the nearest street intersection.
B. The name of the owner and of all adjoining property
owners as disclosed by the most recent municipal tax records.
C. The Tax Map sheet, block and lot numbers.
D. All existing structures, wooded areas, streams and
other significant physical features within the portion to be subdivided
and within 200 feet thereof. If topographic conditions are significant,
contours shall also be indicated at intervals of not more than 10
feet.
E. All the utilities available and all existing streets.
F. The proposed pattern of lots (including lot width
and depth), proposed street layout, recreational areas, systems of
drainage, sewerage and water supply within the subdivided area.
G. All existing restrictions on the use of land, including
easements, covenants and land use district lines.
H. A sketch plan proposing modification of the land use
regulations shall, in addition, clearly show the specific modifications
proposed; location, number and types of dwellings proposed; proposed
open space areas and their uses; and the proposed driveway access,
parking and traffic circulation layout.
I. A copy of the survey map upon which the sketch plan
is based.
The following documents shall be submitted for
approval:
A. Plat and data. Five copies of the preliminary plat
shall be submitted. It shall be prepared at a scale of not more than
100, but preferably not less than 50, feet to the inch. The preliminary
plat shall show:
(1) Proposed subdivision name; name of village, town and
county in which it is located; date; true North point; scale; name
and address of record owner and subdivider, and the engineer or surveyor,
including his license number and seal.

thereto and the name of the owners of record of all adjacent property.

of the district, if located in more than one district, and any proposed
changes in the district lines and/or the Land Use Regulations text applicable to the area to be subdivided.

use and the conditions of such dedication.
(5) Location of existing property lines, easements, buildings,
watercourses, marshes, rock outcrops, wooded areas, single trees with
a circumference of 25 inches or more as measured three feet above
the base of the trunk and other significant existing features for
the proposed subdivision and adjacent property.
(6) Contours at intervals of five feet or less as required
by the Board, including elevations on existing roads.
(7) Location of existing sewers, waterlines, culverts
and drains on the property, with pipe sizes, grades and direction

public ways or places within the area to be subdivided, and the width,
location, grades and street profiles of all streets or public ways
proposed by the subdivider.
(9) The approximate location and size of all proposed
waterlines, valves, hydrants and sewer lines; profiles of all proposed
water- and sewer lines; and connection to existing lines and alternate
means of water supply or sewage disposal and treatment as provided
in the Public Health Law. Where on-site individual water supply and/or
sewage disposal facilities are proposed, their feasibility shall be
adequately documented for each proposed lot, and compliance of the
design of such facilities with recommended standards of the New York
State Health Department shall be certified by the subdivider's engineer.
Such documentation may require the inclusion of the percolation test
results and/or well tests.
(10)
A storm drainage plan indicating the approximate location and size of proposed lines and their profiles. Connection to existing lines or alternate means of disposal. Preliminary designs of any bridges or culverts which may be required. Where required by the Board, one copy of an engineer's hydrologic study pursuant to §
104-20B and
C above and the erosion control plan prepared pursuant to §
104-20E.
(11)
Plans and cross sections showing the proposed
location and type of sidewalks, streetlighting standards, street trees,
curbs, water mains, sanitary sewers and the size and type thereof;
the character, width and depth of pavements and subbase; the location
of manholes, basins and underground conduits.
(12)
The proposed lot lines with approximate dimensions
and area of each lot.
(13)
Where the topography is such as to make difficult
the inclusion of any of the required facilities within the public
areas as laid out, the preliminary plat shall show the boundaries
of proposed permanent easements over or under private property, which
permanent easements shall not be less than 20 feet in width and which
shall provide satisfactory access to an existing public way or proposed
public highway or public open space shown on the subdivision plat.
(14)
An actual field survey of the boundary lines
of the tract, giving complete descriptive data by bearings and distances,
made and certified to by a licensed land surveyor. The corners of
the tract shall also be located on the ground and marked by substantial
monuments of such size and type as approved by the Public Works Superintendent
and shall be referenced and shown on the plat.
B. Sectional context plan. If the application covers
only a section of the subdivider's entire holding, a map of the entire
tract, drawn at a scale of not less than 400 feet to the inch, showing
an outline of the platted area with its proposed streets and indication
of the probable future street system and the probable future drainage
layout of the entire tract, shall be submitted. The part of the subdivider's
entire holding submitted shall be considered in the light of the probable
development pattern for the entire holdings.
C. Restrictions proposed. A copy of such covenants or
deed restrictions as are intended to cover all or part of the tract.
The following documents shall be submitted for

County Clerk's office for filing. The size of the sheets shall not
be less than 8 1/2 inches by 11 inches nor greater than 34 inches
by 44 inches, including a margin for binding of two inches outside
of the border along the left side and a margin of one inch outside
