The preliminary plat, prepared by a licensed land surveyor, shall be clearly marked "preliminary plat," shall be drawn to a convenient scale but not less than one inch equals 100 feet and shall show the following information:
A.
Proposed subdivision name or identifying title; name, address and endorsement of the property owner and subdivider (if other than owner); name and address of the surveyor and/or engineer preparing the plan; scale; approximate true North point; and date.
B.
The location and dimensions of all property lines; the total acreage of the proposed subdivision; the location of any zoning, special district or municipal boundary lines affecting the subdivision; and the names of owners of record of properties adjoining and directly across the street from the proposed subdivision.
C.
The location of all existing structures and pertinent features, including railroads, water bodies, watercourses, wetlands, rock outcroppings, wooded areas, trees having a circumference of 25 inches or more, and stone walls, that may influence the design of the subdivision, plus accurate topography at a vertical contour interval of not more than two feet. The topographic data shall be determined by field survey unless the Planning Board specifically waives this requirement and/or permits the substitution of topographic information obtained from other sources determined satisfactory by the Planning Board. The wetlands delineation shall be certified on the map and in the field by a licensed professional authorized by the New York State Department of Environmental Conservation to make such certifications.
[Amended 4-23-2007 by L.L. No. 5-2007]
D.
The location and status of existing streets, easements and rights-of-way (if any); proposals for the layout of new streets (including widths and approximate curve radii) and any proposed easements, rights-of-way and/or reservations.
E.
The names of existing streets and proposed names for new streets.
F.
The proposed arrangement of lots, including identifying section, lot and block numbers and approximate area and dimensions of each.
G.
Location, size and nature of any area proposed to be reserved for park purposes.
H.
A site location sketch, at a scale of one inch equals 300 feet, showing the general situation of the applicant's property with respect to surrounding properties and streets.
I.
No trees shall be removed from any subdivision nor any change of grade of the land effected until approval of the final plat has been granted. All trees on the plat required to be retained shall be preserved, and all trees, where required, shall be welled and protected against change of grade. A tree map showing the number and location of existing trees of 25 inches or more in circumference measured at a height 4 1/2 feet above existing ground level at the base of the tree on the uphill side shall be submitted with the preliminary plat, keyed to a table listing species, height and circumference. The map shall show the trees intended to be removed during construction for Planning Board approval. The Planning Board, in its discretion, may waive the requirement for individual tree identification where a large number of such trees are situated in an area that is to be preserved as shown with a clearing limit line. A protected tree, as defined in this chapter, shall be preserved unless such tree endangers the health or safety of any person or interferes with construction of a structure on the lot or is a dead tree as determined by a landscape architect or similar professional. The Planning Board may require relocation of a proposed structure on a lot in order to preserve such trees, provided that such relocation complies with the bulk and setback requirements of the Zoning Law.
J.
Where the preliminary plat includes only a portion of an applicant's contiguous holding, the applicant shall also indicate, on a sketch at a scale of not less than one inch equals 300 feet, the probable future street system, lot arrangement and location of park and other reservations for the remaining portion of the tract. Such sketch shall be for the purpose of guiding the Planning Board in reviewing the proposed preliminary plat and shall include topographic data, at a vertical contour interval of not more than 10 feet, plus any other information determined necessary by the Planning Board.
K.
Such additional information as may be required by these regulations, the Zoning Law or the Planning Board.
