The subdivider shall, prior to the expiration of the approval
of the preliminary plat, file with the Planning Board an application
for approval of the subdivision plat in final form, upon forms available
from the Secretary of the Planning Board. All applications for final
plat approval for subdivisions shall be accompanied by a fee in accordance
with the Standard Schedule of Fees as fixed by the Town Board and
as may be amended from time to time. If a final plat is submitted
for only a portion of the subdivision shown on the approved preliminary
plat, an additional filing fee shall be paid for each final section
or phase submitted after the first final section or phase is approved.
A.
The final plat and supporting drawings and documents for a proposed
subdivision constitute the complete development of the subdivision
proposal and include the results of the Planning Board review of the
land development plan and the preliminary layout, as well as the detailed
layout drawings for the public improvements and utilities. After public
hearing and approval by the Planning Board, this complete submission,
along with any security required to be posted and the general liability
insurance policy, as approved by the Town Board, shall become the
basis for the project which shall be constructed in accordance with
said final plat. Nothing contained herein shall be deemed a waiver
of any requirement that the applicant, subdivider, and/or their authorized
representatives, must obtain any permits required by federal, state,
county, and/or local agencies.
B.
A certified survey of the entire parcel being subdivided shall be
provided on the final subdivision plat, except under the following
conditions.
C.
The minimum area of the parent parcel to be surveyed under the above
exceptions shall be determined by the Planning Board. In the event
such waiver is granted by the Planning Board, the applicant shall
provide a deed plot for the remaining premises not being surveyed.
A.
A subdivider
intending to submit a proposed subdivision plat for the final approval
of the Planning Board shall provide the Secretary of the Planning
Board with 10 copies of the application and 10 copies of the plat
folded so that each copy is no greater than 8 1/2 inches by 14
inches, at least 10 days in advance of the regular monthly Planning
Board meeting at which it is to be officially submitted.
B.
At the
same time, if the applicant intends to request any waiver of the requirements
of standards provided for in this chapter in connection with final
plat approval, a statement applying for such waiver shall be filed
with the final plat submission.
Any submissions, including subdivision plat(s), shall be at
least 10 days prior to the date of the regularly scheduled monthly
meeting of the Planning Board. No application nor submission will
be considered unless all required fees have been paid in full and
all other data required herein have been filed with the Secretary
of the Planning Board.
All other governmental agency and/or departmental approvals
required by law, such as federal, state, county and/or local agencies,
shall be issued prior to the Planning Board granting final approval.
The Town Engineer or other delegated Town officer shall prepare
a performance bond estimate, which will be submitted along with recommendations
on the final plat.
The Planning Board shall hold a final public hearing unless
it is determined by the Planning Board, in its discretion, that one
is not necessary. The hearing shall be advertised at least once in
a newspaper of general circulation in the Town and a notice of the
public hearing posted in at least three prominent public places located
in the Town, both at least five days before the hearing if no hearing
is held on the draft environmental impact statement or 14 days before
a hearing held jointly with the draft environmental impact statement.
The applicant shall also provide notice of said public hearing by
certified mail, return receipt requested, to the owners of record
of property within 500 feet of the subject premises and to any other
persons as the Board in its discretion shall direct. The applicant
shall provide certified mail receipts as proof of such notification.
The Planning Board shall, within 62 days from the date of the
public hearing on the subdivision plat, if one is held, or within
62 days after the receipt of the final plat by the Secretary of the
Planning Board if no hearing is to be held, approve, disapprove or
conditionally approve, with or without modifications, the final subdivision
plat, and shall specify, in writing, or upon the record, its reasons
for any such refusal. Provision may be made for an extension of this
time by mutual consent of the subdivider and the Planning Board. If
a final environmental impact statement is required, the Planning Board
decision to approve, with or without modifications, or disapprove
the final plat will be made within 30 days of filing of the environmental
impact statement. In the event the plat is approved, no map shall
be signed by the Board until and unless the subdivider complies with
all requirements fixed by the Board, including but not limited to
the following:
A.
Make all required corrections or changes to the satisfaction of the
Planning Board.
B.
Post such security in an amount fixed by the Town Board and approved
by the Town Attorney and the submission of proof of the existence
of such liability insurance coverage naming the Town as an additional
insured and in an amount fixed by the Town Board, with the form of
the same, being approved by the Town Attorney.
D.
Pay all required fees and present the Chairman with receipts therefor.
