[Amended 11-5-2001 by L.L. No. 3-2001]
For the purpose of enabling and encouraging flexibility of design and development of land in such a manner as to promote the most appropriate use of land, to facilitate the adequate and economical provision of streets and utilities and to preserve the natural and scenic qualities of open lands, the Planning Board is hereby authorized, simultaneously with the approval of a plat containing not less than 15 acres, to modify the applicable provisions of §§
163-12 through
163-21 hereof when, in the judgment of the Planning Board, such modification would benefit the Village. This authorization shall be deemed a mandatory procedure whenever the gross area exceeds 15 acres and shall apply to all land in the Village.
Before the clustering provisions of this article
shall be applicable, the owner shall make written application to the
Planning Board for the use of this procedure. Thereafter, a plat whose
approval would require the Planning Board to modify such applicable
provisions shall be processed in the normal manner, in accordance
with all appropriate provisions of the land subdivision regulations
of the Planning Board of the Village of North Haven, and an applicant for subdivision approval under this article shall follow those procedures required of all other applicants (subdividers) by said regulations. No part of this Article
III shall be construed so as to diminish benefits to a property owner eligible under §
146-27 to the benefits described thereunder.
The type of dwelling units permitted shall only
be one-family detached dwellings, not to exceed one dwelling on each
lot.
