A. 
The Board of Trustees may, from time to time on its own motion, amend, supplement, repeal or change the regulations and district boundaries established by this chapter pursuant to law.
B. 
Whenever the owners of 50% or more of the frontage in any district or part thereof included in such change shall present a petition duly signed and acknowledged to the Board of Trustees requesting an amendment, supplement or change of the regulations prescribed for such district or part thereof, it shall be the duty of the Board of Trustees to vote upon said petition within 90 days after the filing of the same by the petitioners with the Village Clerk.
C. 
The Zoning Board of Appeals may, by resolution, propose an amendment to the Board of Trustees suggesting a change or repeal of specific portions of the regulations. Within 30 days from the time such resolution is filed with the Village Clerk, it shall be the duty of the Board to vote on such proposed amendment.
D. 
Amendment of this chapter may be subject to the state environmental quality review process (SEQR). The Board of Trustees should identify the type of action the zone change is according to SEQR regulations. Depending on the size of the zone change and several other factors, it may be a Type I or unlisted action. To make a decision, the Board should consult Part 617 of the New York Codes Rules and Regulations (NYCRR) and Article 8 of the Environmental Conservation Law.
E. 
If it is determined that an environmental impact statement will be prepared for the proposal in question, all time frames and deadlines are delayed until a draft environmental impact statement has been filed. An application is not complete and therefore the review clock does not start until a determination of no significance has been made or until a draft environmental impact statement is completed.
A. 
All proposed amendments, supplements or changes originating by petition or by motion of the Board of Trustees shall be referred to the Zoning Board of Appeals for a report and recommendation thereon. The Zoning Board of Appeals shall submit its report within 30 days after receiving such referral. Failure of the Zoning Board of Appeals to report within the required time shall be deemed to be disapproval of the proposed amendment.
B. 
Whenever any zoning regulation or any amendment, including special permits or variances, would change the district classification of or a regulation applying to real property in a neighboring municipality or upon other county or state property as described in §§ 239-l and 239-m of the General Municipal Law, said zoning regulation or amendment shall be referred to the Oneida County Department of Planning, which Department shall report its recommendations to the Board of Trustees. Requirements of General Municipal Law § 239-nn must also have been met where applicable. Failure of the County Department of Planning to report within 30 days may be construed to the approval by the Department.
[Amended at time of adoption of Code (see Ch. 1, General Provisions, Art. I)]
C. 
The concurring vote of a majority plus one of the Board of Trustees shall be necessary to override the County Planning Department recommendations of approval with modifications or disapproval.
D. 
Within seven days after final action by the Board of Trustees on the recommendations, modifications or disapproval of a referred matter, the Board shall file a report of the final action with the County Planning Department. Any defect in complying with this referral procedure will render the Board of Trustees powerless to take further action under the adoption procedure.
A. 
Before any amendment, supplement or change in the regulations or district boundaries, there shall be public notice and a hearing thereof as provided by law. Such hearing shall be held by the Board of Trustees. In addition to the public notice of a hearing, notice shall be given, in writing, either personally or by mail, to all property owners of the land included in such proposed change and the land immediately adjacent extending 100 feet therefrom and the land directly opposite thereto extending 100 feet from the street frontage of such opposite land, as said property owners and addresses appear on the latest completed assessment roll of the Village.
B. 
Where more than 12 properties are included in such change and the Board of Trustees, by resolution, determines that notice, in writing, to each property owner is not feasible, the notice of hearing shall be published in the official paper once a week for three successive weeks and shall be posted in public places in the Village, of which six shall be in the area affected.
After the public hearing and referral to and report by the Zoning Board of Appeals, a majority vote of the members of the Board of Trustees shall be required to amend this chapter, except as described in § 135-47, Protest petition.
If a protest against a proposed amendment, supplement or change is presented to the Board of Trustees duly signed and acknowledged by the owners of 20% or more of the area of the land included in such proposed change or by the owners of 20% or more of the land immediately adjacent extending 100 feet therefrom or by the owners of 20% or more of the land directly opposite thereto extending 100 feet from the street frontage of such opposite land, such amendment shall not become effective except by the favorable vote of at least four members of the Board of Trustees.
From time to time, at intervals of not more than three years, the Zoning Board of Appeals shall reexamine the provisions of this chapter and the location of district boundary lines and shall submit a report to the Board of Trustees recommending such changes or amendments, if any, which may be desirable in the interest of public safety, health, convenience, necessity or welfare.
