If, in the opinion of the Planning Board, it is feasible and
desirable to require a public water supply system, such system shall
be installed at the expense of the subdivider to the approval of the
Planning Board. Such system design and installation shall be approved
by OCWA and Village Engineer and be in accordance with New York State
Department of Health regulations.
If, in the opinion of the Planning Board, it is feasible and

As a safety measure for the protection of the health and welfare
of the people of the Village, that portion of a proposed lot which
is found to be unsuitable for subdivision due to harmful features
(e.g., drainage problems) shall not be subdivided until adequate methods
are formulated by the subdivider and approved by the Village Engineer.
The Planning Board may waive, subject to appropriate conditions,
the provision of any or all of such improvements as, in its judgment
of the special circumstances of a particular plat or plats, are not
required in the interest of the public health, safety and general
welfare or which, in its judgment, are inappropriate because of inadequacy
or lack of connecting facilities adjacent or in proximity to the subdivision.
