The zoning districts are shown, defined and bounded on the Zoning
Map revised September 17, 2018, accompanying this chapter. The Zoning
Map dated September 17, 2018, is hereby made a part of this chapter
and shall be on file in the office of the Village Clerk.
A.
District boundaries shown within the lines of roads, streams or transportation
rights-of-way shall be deemed to follow the center line.
B.
Where a district boundary is located not farther than 15 feet from
a lot line of record, the boundary shall be construed to coincide
with such line.
C.
Any boundary shown extending into the Hudson River shall be deemed
to extend to the boundary of the Village unless otherwise indicated.
D.
Where a district boundary line divides a lot of record at the time
such line is adopted, the regulations for the less-restricted part
of such lot shall extend not more than 50 feet into the more-restricted
part, provided that the lot has frontage on a street in a less-restricted
district.
E.
Questions concerned with the exact location of district boundary
lines as shown on the Zoning Map shall be resolved by the Board of
Appeals.
No land, building, structure or premises or part thereof shall
be erected, moved, altered or used except for one or more of the uses
permitted in the district in which such land, building, structure
or premises is located. Such permitted uses are set forth in the attached
schedule entitled "Use Regulations," which is hereby made a part of
this chapter.[1]

Editor's Note: The Schedule of Use Regulations is included
as an attachment to this chapter.
The regulations applying to minimum lot and yard dimensions
and building height and lot coverage standards are set forth in the
attached schedule entitled "Area and Bulk Regulations," which is hereby
made a part of this chapter.[1]
[1]
Editor's Note: The Schedule of Area and Bulk Regulations
is included as an attachment to this chapter.
A.
Provision is included for Planned Development Districts to permit
establishment of areas in which diverse residential, commercial and
industrial uses may be brought together as a compatible and unified
plan of development which is in the interest and general welfare of
the public. Area, yard, coverage, height and supplementary regulation
requirements shall be comparable to minimum requirements in appropriate
residential, commercial or industrial zoning districts for each specific
use, except where the Planning Board finds that it is in the public
interest to modify these requirements.
B.
The owner shall submit three sets of site plans of proposed development to Planning Board for review, as required in § 169-14F.
C.
The Planning Board shall recommend approval, approval with modifications
or disapproval of site plans. The Board may recommend to the Board
of Trustees establishment of a Planned Development District, provided
that it finds that facts submitted establish that:
(1)
The proposed uses will not be detrimental to present and potential
adjacent uses.
(2)
The land surrounding the proposed development can be planned in coordination
with and be compatible in use to the proposed development.
(3)
The proposed zoning change is in conformance with the intent of any
Comprehensive Plan as may be adopted by the Board of Trustees.
(4)
The existing and proposed streets are suitable and adequate to carry
anticipated traffic within and in the vicinity of the proposed district.
(5)
The existing and proposed utility services are adequate for the proposed
development.
(6)
Each phase of development as proposed to be completed contains the
required parking spaces and landscaped areas necessary for creating
and sustaining a desirable and stable environment.
D.
Public hearing.
(1)
The Board of Trustees may amend the Zoning Map after holding a public
hearing, but such action shall have the effect only of granting permission
for development of the specific proposal, in accordance with site
plans approved by the Board of Trustees. An appropriate notation to
that effect shall be made on three sets of plans. One set shall be
retained by the Village Clerk.
(2)
Approval by the Board of Trustees for each phase of development for
planned development shall be secured by the owner.
Notwithstanding the other zoning district regulations, the following
uses shall be prohibited in a designated floodplain:
A.
All residential, commercial, industrial and other buildings intended
for human occupancy or employment, excluding recreational, agricultural
and temporary uses, unless constructed to the standards established
under the National Flood Insurance Program.
B.
All dumps, junkyards and excavation sites.
C.
Sewage disposal and water supply facilities, except those approved
by the State Department of Health.
