The Town Board may from time to time, on its own motion or on petition
or on 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.
[Amended 4-17-1991 by L.L. No. 1-1991]
In the case of proposed amendment which involves the reclassification
or transfer of any area from a zoning district to any other zoning 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.
Thereafter, no building permit or certificate of zoning compliance 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 application
for a building permit for such special development is made within the time
established by the Town Board and unless development of the area included
in such development plan is commenced within the period so established, said
approval shall be void, and the zoning classification shall be as it was when
the petition for amendment was filed.
