All applicants for minor subdivision review and approval shall
follow the procedures of this article.
All potential subdividers are encouraged to meet with the Planning
Board prior to the submission of a formal application for a minor
subdivision approval. Such a meeting may be used to expedite the review
process by allowing the Planning Board and the applicant to be advised
of the following:
[Amended 12-29-2011 by L.L. No. 4-2012]
If the Planning Board determines that the proposed subdivision
is of minor significance, the Planning Board may waive the application
and review procedure as provided for in this article. Such waiver
shall be in writing and shall include the following findings:
A.
The proposed subdivision does not involve the creation of more than
four lots.
B.
The applicant has provided evidence acceptable to the Planning Board
that all lots shall conform to the requirements of the Zoning Law.
Such evidence may consist of proposed deeds, plot plans or surveys
of all the lands included in the proposed subdivision or of part of
the lands included in the proposed subdivision where such part provides
the Planning Board with evidence sufficient to make a determination.
C.
The proposed subdivision has no negative environmental significance
pursuant to 6 NYCRR Part 617.
D.
Pursuant to the above regulations a minor subdivision waiver may
be granted by the Planning Board when the parcel does not meet the
current requirements as required in Schedules B and C, Dimensional
Requirements,[1] and will be added to the parcel which does meet these
requirements or was a nonconforming lot.[2]
