A. 
The Town Board may from time to time on its own motion, on a recommendation by the Zoning Board of Appeals or the Planning Board or on petition from the property owner or owners, after proper public notice and public hearing, amend, supplement or repeal the regulations, provisions or boundaries of this chapter as provided by Town Law.
B. 
In addition to publication of notice of a zoning change in a newspaper as required by § 264 of the Town Law, all owners of land either of the area included in such proposed change or of that immediately adjacent extending 300 feet therefrom, or of that directly opposite thereto extending 300 feet from the street frontage of such opposite land, shall be notified by registered mail at least five days prior to the date of public hearing on the proposed zoning change.
A. 
In the case of a proposed amendment which involves the reclassification or transfer of 1/2 acre or more from any use to a less restricted use, the Town Board shall require the petitioner to submit a development or site plan showing the extent, location and character of proposed structures and uses. The Town Board may require that such plan be modified to ensure its compatibility with adjacent areas and may qualify its approval of such amendment by attaching a special endorsement thereto. Any future additions to the development or site plan area must be resubmitted to the Town Board to determine that the addition is substantially in agreement with the intent of the original chapter amendment. Nonconformity in architectural design with the original development may be considered a reasonable basis for refusal to issue a building permit for such an addition.
B. 
No building permit shall be issued for construction within the area described by said provisional amendment, except in accordance with the approved development or site 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 property rezoned or granted special permit is made within a period of one year after the Town Board's approval, said approval shall be void and the zoning classification shall be as it was when the petition for amendment was filed.
A. 
Filing of petition. A petition to amend, change or supplement the text of this chapter or any zoning district as designed on the Zoning Map established herein shall be filed with the Town Clerk, along with a filing fee as set by Town Board resolution, on forms obtained from his office and shall be transmitted by the Clerk to the Town Board.
B. 
Referral to Planning Board. Each proposed amendment, except those initiated by the Town Planning Board, shall be referred to the Town Planning Board for an advisory report prior to the public hearing on said zoning change. In reporting, the Town Planning Board shall fully state its reasons for recommending or opposing the adoption of such proposed amendment and, if it shall recommend adoption, shall describe any changes in conditions which it believes make the amendment desirable and shall state whether such amendment is in harmony with a Comprehensive Plan for land use in the Town.
C. 
Rehearing on petition. The disposition of a petition for amendment by the Town Board shall be final, and disapproval or denial of the proposed amendment shall void the petition. No new petition for an amendment which has been previously denied by the Town Board shall be considered by it, and no public hearing shall be held on such amendment, within a period of one year from the date of such previous denial, unless the Planning Board shall find that there have been substantial changes in the situation which would merit a rehearing and shall state the same in writing to the Town Clerk before he accepts a reapplication on this petition.
Map changes resulting from official action by the Town Board shall be referred to the Town Engineer, who shall be responsible for keeping the Official Zoning Map up-to-date.
