[HISTORY: Adopted by the Board of Trustees
of the Village of Bayville 10-28-2002 by L.L. No. 7-2002. Amendments noted where applicable.]
This chapter will be known as the "Village of
Bayville Waterfront Consistency Review Law."
A.
This chapter is adopted under the authority of the
Municipal Home Rule Law and the Waterfront Revitalization of Coastal
Areas and Inland Waterways Act of the State of New York (Article 42
of the Executive Law).
B.
The purpose of this chapter is to provide a framework
for agencies of the Village of Bayville to consider the policies and
purposes contained in the Local Waterfront Revitalization Program
when reviewing applications for actions or direct agency actions located
in the coastal area and to assure that such actions and direct actions
are consistent with said policies and purposes.
C.
It is the intention of the Village of Bayville that
the preservation, enhancement and utilization of the natural and man-made
resources of the unique coastal area of the Village take place in
a coordinated and comprehensive manner to ensure a proper balance
between natural resources and the need to accommodate economic development.
Accordingly, this chapter is intended to achieve such a balance, permitting
the beneficial use of coastal resources while preventing loss of estuarine
resources and wildlife; diminution of open space areas or public accesses
to the waterfront; erosion of shoreline; impairment of scenic beauty;
losses due to flooding, erosion and sedimentation; or permanent adverse
changes to ecological systems.
D.

only while there is in existence a Village Local Waterfront Revitalization
Program which has been adopted by the Village and approved by the
Secretary of State.
