It is the intent of this article to use special permits to control
the impact of certain uses upon areas where they will be incompatible
unless conditioned in a manner suitable to a particular location.
The Town Planning Board will administer the review and granting
of special permits. Any addition or alteration to uses and buildings
authorized by special permit requires approval of the Planning Board.
Before granting a special permit, the Planning Board shall be satisfied that all of the following conditions have been met. The Planning Board is authorized to condition special permits to ensure compliance with these conditions (see §
200-67, Conditions).
A. The proposed development is compatible with nearby properties and
will not discourage the appropriate development and use of adjacent
properties.
B. Traffic generated by the proposed development can be adequately and
safely served by the existing and proposed roads.
C. The proposed development will not adversely affect community appearance.
D. The proposed development can be served by necessary community facilities
and will not overtax such community facilities. This includes providing
adequate access for emergency vehicles as required by Town Law § 280-a.
E. Operation of any special use shall not be more objectionable to nearby
properties by reason of dust, odor, noise, fumes, vibration, excessive
lighting, or water pollution than would the operation of any permitted
use.
F. Special uses shall not conflict with the Comprehensive Plan.
G. Solar access of adjacent properties is not obstructed by said use.
H. All State Environmental Quality Review requirements have been met.
I. No special permit shall be issued for an existing use on a property
where there is an existing violation of this chapter or other Town
law or regulation.
J. All agricultural district review requirements have been met.
