As used in this article, the following terms shall have the
meanings indicated:
SITE PLAN
A rendering, drawing or sketch prepared to all relevant specifications
and containing necessary elements, as set forth in this article, which
shows the arrangement, layout and design of the proposed use of a
single parcel of land as shown on said plan. Plats showing lots, blocks
or sites which are subject to review pursuant to authority provided
for the review of subdivisions under § 7-728 of the Village
Law shall continue to be subject to such review and shall not be subject
to review as site plans under this article. However, this article
shall apply in the case of any proposal which contemplates the use
of a particular parcel in conjunction or interrelation with one or
other parcels. In such circumstances, the term "single parcel" as
stated above shall be deemed to respect all of the properties involved.
Where an approved site plan or the approval of modifications
to an existing site plan is required pursuant to this article, no
building permit, plumbing permit, sign permit or certificate of occupancy
may be issued until such time as the site plan approval or approval
of site plan modification is issued.
[Amended 3-8-2010 by L.L. No. 2-2010]
A. Any site plan approval or approval of site plan modification issued
pursuant to the provisions of this article shall become null, void
and of no further effect unless a building permit for the construction
upon said site plan shall have been issued within 180 days of the
filing of such approval.
B. However, in such instance where an approved site plan requires area
or use variance relief or special permission issued by the Zoning
Board of Appeals or the Board of Trustees, the one-hundred-eighty-day
period shall not begin to run until the Zoning Board of Appeals or
the Board of Trustees shall file its determination on an application
respecting such relief, provided said application is filed within
60 days of the filing of the site plan approval or approval of site
plan modification.
No parcel or part thereof may be the subject of an application
for a site plan approval within one year after the determination rendered
on a site plan application is filed, unless such application is substantially
different from the previous application.
The Planning Board of the Village of Amityville is hereby authorized
to review, approve, disapprove, approve with modifications and approve
with conditions, site plans and modifications to existing site plans
as required by this article.
