Whenever any subdivision is proposed within the territorial jurisdiction
of the Board, and before any permit for the development of such land or for
the erection of a structure thereon may be granted, the owner or his authorized
agent shall apply for and secure approval of the proposed subdivision in accordance
with these regulations. Three principal steps are involved, namely:
After completion of the subdivision plat and construction plans in accordance
with the Board's resolution, the original tracing and two prints of each shall,
within the time specified in said resolution or, if no time is specified,
within 30 days, be filed with the Clerk for final review by the Board. Approval
of the subdivision plat shall be endorsed thereon as follows:
A. When bonds are filed, approval of the plat shall be endorsed
thereon after the bonds have been approved and filed and all of the conditions
of the Board's resolution pertaining to the plat have been satisfied.
B. When no bond is filed, approval of the plat shall be
endorsed thereon after all conditions of the Board's resolution have been
satisfied and all required improvements completed to the satisfaction of the
Board.
C. Number of copies to be signed. Approval of the Board
shall be noted on the subdivision plat by the Clerk, who shall sign the tracing
cloth original of the subdivision plat, which will be returned to the subdivider,
and one print of the plat which will be retained by the Board.
In accordance with the Village Law and Real Property Law, the approved
subdivision plat shall be filed by the subdivider with the Nassau County Clerk,
Division of Land Records, within 90 days of the date of signing. The approval
of any plat not so filed shall expire 90 days from the date of signing by
the Board, unless an extension of time is applied for in writing within said
ninety-day period and thereafter granted by the Board pursuant to Section
179-k of the Village Law.
Within 30 days of the filing thereof, the subdivider shall submit to
the Clerk two certified copies of the filed subdivision plat.
No changes, erasures, modifications, or revisions shall be made in any
subdivision plat after approval has been granted by the Board and endorsed
on the plat. In the event that any subdivision plat, when recorded, contains
any such changes, the plat shall be deemed to be null and void, and the Board
shall institute proceedings to have said plat stricken from the records of
the County Clerk. Any erasures made on a plat prior to its signing shall be
initialed by the Clerk at the time of signing.
The procedure for approval of the development, as defined in §
232-6 herein, of a plat entirely or partially undeveloped and which was filed in the office of the Clerk of Nassau County prior to the appointment of the Board and the grant to the Board of authority to approve plats, shall be the same as that for approval of a subdivision plat.
