By the authority of the resolution of the Town Board of the Town of
Berne, adopted on March 9, 1988, pursuant to the provisions of Article 16
of the Town Law of the State of New York, the Planning Board of the Town of
Berne is authorized and empowered to approve plats showing lots, blocks or
sites, with or without streets or highways, to approve the development of
entirely or partially undeveloped plats already filed in the office of the
Clerk of the County and to approve preliminary plats. It is declared to be
the policy of the Planning Board to consider land subdivision plats as part
of a plan for the orderly, efficient and economical development of the Town.
This means, among other things, that land to be subdivided shall be of such
character that it can be used safely for building purposes without danger
to health, or peril from fire, flood or other menace; that proper provision
shall be made for drainage, water supply, sewerage and other needed improvements;
that all proposed lots shall be so laid out and of such size as to be in harmony
with the development pattern of the neighboring properties; that the proposed
streets shall compose a convenient system conforming to the Official Map,
if such exists, and shall be properly related to the proposals shown on the
Town of Berne Comprehensive Land Use Plan, if such exists, and shall be of
such width, grade and location as to accommodate the prospective traffic,
to facilitate fire protection and to provide access of fire-fighting equipment
to buildings; and that proper provision shall be made for open spaces for
parks and playgrounds. In order that land subdivisions may be made in accordance
with this policy, these regulations which shall be known as, and which may
be cited as, the "Town of Berne Land Subdivision Regulations" have been adopted
by the Planning Board on June 4, 1987 and approved by the Town Board on March
9, 1988.
