[Amended 8-19-2021 by L.L. No. 10-2021]
A. The Planning Board shall conduct an architectural
review of and decide upon all of the following:
(1) All applications for the construction of any new building
or structure.
(2) All applications for alterations or additions to any
building or structure, except that with respect to a one-family residence
in a residential zoning district, additions, alterations or reconstruction
which shall not increase the gross floor area of a building by more
than 20% thereof shall be exempt from the provisions of this chapter.
(3) Repainting, re-siding or altering of the exterior
of any building or structure which results in a change of color or
materials.
(4) Design of exterior signs.
B. There is also delegated to the Planning Board the
authority to conduct a review of and to issue an approval or denial
for preliminary site plan approval. The Board of Trustees shall have
jurisdiction over final site plan approval.
The Planning Board and/or Village Board of Trustees
and/or Zoning Board of Appeals may conduct a public hearing on the
site plan if a majority of the members of any such board deem that
such a hearing is in the public interest. The applicant shall provide
evidence at the hearing that all record landowners within a three-hundred-foot
radius of the proposed project, as said record owners appear on the
most current tax rolls of the Nassau County Assessor's office, were
notified by mail not less than 10 days nor more than 30 days before
the public hearing. No hearing before any other board shall diminish
the authority of the Board of Trustees to conduct a public hearing.
No building permit shall be issued pursuant
to the provisions of this chapter until all expenses incurred by the
Planning Board and Board of Trustees for consultation fees (including,
but not limited to, engineering, architectural and legal expenses)
or other extraordinary expenses in connection with the review of a
site plan are reimbursed to the Village by the applicant. At the time
of application, the applicant shall deposit with the Village Clerk
such amount to cover consultation fees and extraordinary expenses
as shall be established, from time to time, by resolution of the Board
of Trustees. In instances where such expenses are minimal, the requirement
for reimbursement of expenses may be waived by resolution of the Board
of Trustees.
In connection with its site plan review, the
Board of Trustees may require a performance bond in an amount it shall
determine to insure that upon completion of the project all the public
improvements shown on the site plan are completed and furthermore
to ensure that, in the event that the project is abandoned, the project
is either completed or the site is restored to the condition which
existed prior to the commencement of the project. The project shall
be deemed abandoned if no substantial construction is performed on
the site for a period of one year or the site plan approval has expired.
The Board of Trustees may also require documentary demonstration to
its satisfaction of the financial responsibility of the applicant
to complete the project.
Site plan approval shall automatically terminate
one year after the same is granted by the Village Board of Trustees
unless a building permit has been issued and there is physical evidence
to demonstrate that substantial construction has taken place and is
continuing. Upon application to the Village Board of Trustees, the
site plan approval may be extended for additional one-year periods,
upon a showing that the conditions existing at the time of the approval
have not changed and that substantial steps to commence the project
have been lawfully undertaken.
This chapter shall supersede the provisions
of § 4-412 and Article 7 of the Village Law of the State
of New York, as amended, to the extent that such provisions conflict
with or are contrary to the provisions of this chapter.
Applicant shall be required to pay the fees
and deposits as same shall be set by resolution of the Board of Trustees
from time to time. The payment of any fee or deposit in connection
with an application shall be a condition precedent to the acceptance
of any application.
