Land subject to flooding, sensitive or protected land and/or land deemed
by the Planning Board to be uninhabitable shall not be platted for residential
occupancy nor for such other uses as may involve danger to health, life or
property or aggravate the flood hazard; but such land within the area of the
plan shall be set aside for such uses as shall not be endangered by periodic
or occasional inundation.
The minimum building setback shall be controlled by the provisions set
forth in the 1967 Zoning Ordinance of the Town of DeWitt, as amended and as
may be further amended.
Where sanitary sewer, storm sewer, water, gas, electrical, street lighting
or other public utility facilities are to be located within street rights-of-way,
their location and installation shall be coordinated so that they may be added
to, repaired or enlarged at minimum cost. If easements are used at the rear
of lots to provide such facilities, an easement shall be required having a
minimum width of at least 20 feet. (Where lots back up to each other, thus
would require a ten-foot easement from each lot.)
Alleys are prohibited in residential developments. In commercial or
industrial districts without expressly designed loading areas, alleys with
a minimum width of 22 feet shall be required. Where such alleys dead-end,
they shall be provided with a turnaround having an outside roadway diameter
of not less than 100 feet.
