The Town Board may, from time to time, on its
own motion or on petition or on the recommendation of the Town Planning
Board, after proper public notice and public hearing, amend, supplement
or repeal the regulations, provisions or boundaries of this chapter.
In the case of a proposed amendment which involves
the reclassification or transfer of any area from an R District to
any C, M or Mixed Use District, the Town Board may require the petitioner
to submit a development plan showing the extent, location and character
of proposed uses and structures. The Town Board may require that such
plan be modified to meet any objections raised at any public hearing
thereon, or subsequent thereto, and may qualify its approval of any
such amendment by attaching a special endorsement thereto. Within
a period of six months from the approval of such a provisional amendment,
no building permit or certificate of occupancy shall be issued for
any property within the area described by said amendment, except in
accordance with the approved development plan and with all conditions
and limitations placed thereon by the Town Board, or in accordance
with the zoning regulations applicable prior to said reclassification
action. Unless an application for a building permit for such special
development is made within six months from the Town Board's approval
and unless development of the area included in such development plan
is commenced within a period of one year after the Town Board's approval,
said approval shall be void, and the zoning classification shall be
as it was when the petition for amendment was filed.
