PUBLIC NOTICE

PUBLIC NOTICE is hereby given that the Board of Trustees of the Village of Port Chester, New York, having duly convened on January 17, 2023 adopted Local Law No. 1 of  the Year 2023, entitled “A LOCAL LAW AMENDING THE CODE OF THE VILLAGE OF PORT CHESTER, CHAPTER 345, “ZONING” TO AMEND CERTAIN DEFINITIONS AND AMEND A NOTE IN THE “BUILDING STANDARDS” TABLE OF THE VARIOUS CHARACTER DISTRICTS RELATED TO BUILDING HEIGHT, an abstract which is hereto annexed.

Said Local Law amends the Code of the Village of Port Chester, New York, and shall take effect immediately upon due publication and filing with the Secretary of State.

This Notice is published in the official newspaper designated by resolution of the Board of Trustees. A printed copy thereof shall be conspicuously posted as required by law. The Local Law shall be entered in the Minutes of the Board of Trustees of the Village of Port Chester, New York.

BY THE ORDER OF THE BOARD OF TRUSTEES OF THE

VILLAGE OF PORT CHESTER, N.Y.

LUIS MARINO, Mayor

JANUSZ R. RICHARDS, Village Clerk

January 20, 2023

ABSTRACT:

After the 2020 adoption of the Character-Based Zoning Code, and based upon the review and approval of numerous development proposals within the village, it was apparent that the way in which building “height” is defined and regulated by the Code was confusing, and inadvertently permitted buildings in excess of the number of stories originally intended, especially on properties with significant topographical variations.

The local law clarifies the way in which building height is defined and regulated; removes the internal ambiguity, if not outright contradiction, within the Zoning Code between Footnote No.”1” referenced within Section 345-405 and stating “Note: Stories do not include Attics or Basements” and the definition of “Basement” in Article 10 which states: “A basement shall be considered a story.”; and advances the general purpose, intent and objectives of the Zoning Code.

The local law shall not apply to any approved site plan application nor an application that has been deemed complete by the Planning and Economic Development Zoning Administrator for the purposes of review by the decision-making authority  and which has been heard by the decision-making authority as of the effective date of the local law.
