Applications must be accompanied by plans showing elevations
of all proposed new buildings and structures and all affected elevations
in the case of additions or alterations to existing buildings and
structures. Where the applicant proposes new construction or where
the plans can reasonably be expected to result in new or additional
landscaping on the property or where the Board, in its discretion,
so requires, the application shall include plans for all new or additional
landscaping. When required by the Building Inspector, the Chair of
the Board or a majority of the Board, a site plan shall also be submitted,
showing:
A. Existing and proposed contours at two-foot intervals;
B. All existing trees with a trunk diameter of four inches or more at
a point three feet above the ground level, and an indication of whether
such trees are intended to remain or to be removed; and/or
C. Other topographical features.
If, within 45 business days after the date on which an application
has been duly referred to the Board, or such longer period as may
be consented to by the applicant, the Board has not acted on the application,
the Building Inspector shall refer the application to the Board of
Trustees, who shall consider the same at the next regular meeting
of the Board of Trustees held more than 15 business days after such
referral to the Board of Trustees.
[Amended 7-18-1994 by L.L. No. 3-1994]
All recommendations or other actions by the Board shall be reviewed
by the Building Commissioner, who shall consult with the Trustee designated
by the Mayor as liaison to the Building Department and, within five
business days, determine whether to affirm such recommendations or
actions or to recommend that such recommendations or actions should
be modified or reversed. If the Building Commissioner determines to
recommend that such recommendations or actions be modified or reversed,
the Building Commissioner shall promptly refer the same to the Board
of Trustees. The Board of Trustees shall consider the same within
a reasonable period of time and determine whether to affirm, reverse
or modify such recommendations or actions.
[Amended 7-18-1994 by L.L. No. 3-1994]
The Building Inspector shall not issue any permit unless the application has been approved by the Building Commissioner or the Board of Trustees, as provided in §
66-7 of this Code. In the event that the Board of Trustees approves an application on conditions, the Building Inspector shall not issue any permit until all changes in the plans have been made to conform to such conditions and unless all such conditions have been met or complied with.
[Amended 7-18-1994 by L.L. No. 3-1994]
A. Any person aggrieved by the action of the Building Commissioner in
approving a permit application may appeal the same to the Board of
Trustees. Such appeal shall be taken by written notice, filed with
the Village Clerk no later than 15 days after the action sought to
be appealed.
B. Any person aggrieved by the action of the Board of Trustees in approving
or disapproving a permit application, or in approving an application
on conditions, or in ruling on an appeal from an action of the Building
Commissioner as provided in this section, or by an action of the Building
Inspector in denying a permit because of disapproval by the Board
of Trustees may, within 30 days after such action, institute a proceeding
to review the same in the manner provided in Article 78 of the Civil
Practice Law and Rules.
C. No appeal shall lie to the Board of Appeals from any determination
of the Building Inspector made pursuant to this chapter.
In addition to any other fees provided or required by law, the
applicant shall pay to the Village Clerk a fee established by resolution
of the Board of Trustees for any application for a permit which requires
review by the Design Review Board. Such fee shall be paid before the
application is deemed to have been submitted.
