The purpose of this section is to create a procedure whereby
the Town Board may create additional zoning classifications within
the Town in the form of an "overlay district."
A.
Creation of district. An overlay district may be created for the
purpose of improving, developing, and/or generally enhancing any group
of properties within the Town, including but not limited to any neighborhood,
street, business area or other defined area of the Town. Properties
to be included in any particular overlay district shall generally
share common characteristics and goals for aesthetics, environmental
resources, economics, safety and/or convenience.
B.
Adoption of overlay districts.
(1)
Where an overlay district is created by the Town Board, any such
local law which creates an overlay district shall define the purposes,
goals, restrictions and requirements that will be applicable to the
overlay district.
(2)
Any requirements of an overlay district so created in the Town shall
be subject to enforcement in accordance with this code in the same
force and effect as all other zoning districts in the Town.
(3)
For any overlay district, unless specifically noted otherwise, the
base zoning shall be secondary and subject to the uses permitted,
specifically permitted or otherwise allowed in such overlay district.
Similarly, the lot area and yard regulations of the overlay district
shall apply to any permitted, specially permitted or otherwise allowed
uses unless otherwise stated. In all cases, unless so stated, the
most restrictive regulation shall apply.
