The Zoning Law and the Subdivision Regulations of the Town of
Wappinger[1] presently require payment of a recreation fee upon the
approval of a site plan containing residential units based on a per-dwelling-unit
amount and upon approval of a subdivision based on a per-lot amount,
respectively. The Town Board determines that the amounts to be paid
per dwelling unit or lot are in need of being adjusted and by this
article seeks to adjust the amount of the recreation fee.
The Town Board of the Town of Wappinger, pursuant to §§ 274-a,
276 and 277 of the Town Law of the State of New York, hereby establishes
a fee, to be known as the "residential site plan and subdivision recreation
fee," which fee is to be paid per dwelling unit or lot whenever lands
are approved by site plan or subdivided, respectively, pursuant to
the Zoning Law or Subdivision Regulations of the Town of Wappinger.
Said fees shall be paid prior to endorsement of the final site plan
or subdivision plat, as applicable, by the Chairman of the Planning
Board.
The residential site plan or subdivision recreation fee is hereby set at an amount per dwelling unit or lot as set forth in Chapter 122, Article IV, § 122-16N(3)(c) and L, of the Code, pursuant to the Zoning Law and Subdivision Regulations of the Town of Wappinger and New York State Town Law of §§ 274-a, 276 and 277. The fees per site plan or subdivision shall be calculated by the Zoning Administrator.
