Design requirements.

Location of off-street parking facilities. Off-street parking facilities shall be located as hereinafter specified. Where a distance is specified, such distance shall be the walking distance measured from the nearest point of the parking facility to the nearest public entrance of the building that such facility is required to serve.

Screening and landscaping. When a parking area for five or more vehicles is within or abuts a residential district, a planted buffer area shall be provided to protect the quality of the residential environment. A solid fence or wall six feet in height shall be erected and landscaping installed on the residential side of the wall. Landscaping utilized to provide this buffer shall not be less than four feet in height at the time of planting and individual shrubs or plants, spaced not more than three feet apart. The planted buffer area shall not be less than five feet in depth.

Lighting.

Units of measurement.

Mixed occupancies and uses not specified. In any case of mixed uses, the total requirements for off-street parking facilities shall be the sum of the requirements for the various uses computed separately. Off-street parking facilities for one use shall not be considered as providing required parking facilities for any other use, except as hereinafter specified in Subsection G for joint use.

Joint use. The off-street parking requirements of two or more uses, structures or parcels of land may be satisfied by the same parking or loading space used jointly to the extent that it can be shown by the owners or operators of the uses, structures or parcels that their operations and parking needs do not overlap in point in time. If the uses, structures or parcels are under separate ownership, the right to joint use of the parking space must be evidenced by a deed, lease, contract or other appropriate written document to establish the joint use. Said document shall bind the owner, his/her heirs and assigns to maintain the required joint uses throughout the life of such uses and shall be approved by the Village Attorney.

Required off-street parking space. The minimum number of off-street parking spaces for specific uses as regulated in this chapter are contained in Schedule II, which is part of this chapter.[2] In the case of a use not specifically mentioned in this section, the requirements for off-street parking facilities shall be determined by the Planning Board.

Central Business District exception. Notwithstanding any other provisions of this section to the contrary, no off-street parking shall be required for any permitted principal or special use in the C-B District.

For every building, structure or part thereof having more than 4,000 square feet of gross building area erected and occupied for business or industrial use as well as other uses requiring the receipt and distribution of materials and merchandise by vehicles, there shall be space provided and permanently maintained for loading and unloading berths provided on the same lot with such building. Such berths shall be located to avoid undue interference with the public use of streets, alleys or parking areas and provided in accord with the following standards:

The loading berth in each instance shall be not less than 12 feet in width, 55 feet in length and 14 feet in height.

Each separate use, grouping of attached buildings or groupings of permitted uses shall not have more than two points of access. Additional accessways may be approved by the Planning Board based on the need for such additional access which is supported by a traffic analysis prepared and submitted by the applicant.

The use of common access points by two or more permitted uses shall be encouraged by the Planning Board in order to reduce the number and closeness of access points along the streets and to encourage the fronting of significant traffic-generating uses upon a parallel access street and not directly upon a primary road.

Access points for industrial uses shall not be less than 24 feet nor more than 40 feet in width. All other access points shall not be less than 20 feet nor more than 30 feet in width.

Fences. In-ground swimming pools shall be completely enclosed by a fence of not less than four feet in height. Said fence shall have a gate with a self-closing latch located inside the complex to control access to the pool area. Aboveground pools less than four feet in height shall be similarly fenced. Aboveground pools which are four feet or more above the ground shall not require a fence, except that any steps leading to the pool deck shall be enclosed by a gate that may be securely fastened and locked. Notwithstanding the foregoing, a fence shall be required if the walls of the pool are so located as to provide a means by which the wall of this pool can be climbed and entry gained to the deck of the pool.

Setbacks.

Drainage. No permit shall be issued for such pool unless the applicant can show that the proposed drainage of such pool will not adversely interfere with the property of others, with public highways or area drainage facilities. No pool shall drain into the Village's sanitary sewer system.

Lighting. Lights erected, operated or maintained in connection with a swimming pool shall be located in such a manner so as to minimize the glare onto adjacent properties.

Overhead wiring. Service drop conductors and any other open overhead wiring shall not be installed above the swimming pool or an area surrounding the swimming pool which extends 10 feet horizontally from the pool edge, diving structures, observation stands, towers or platforms. Service conductors shall be enclosed in ground fault interrupter boxes and appropriately grounded.

Filtering system. A filtering system shall be installed in all pools requiring in excess of 1,760 gallons of water to fill an area approximately 10 feet in diameter by 36 inches in depth.

Permits. Building and zoning permits shall be required for all swimming pools having an area greater than 100 square feet or a depth greater than 18 inches, regardless of whether the pool is above or below ground.

Compliance with New York State requirements. Applications for swimming pool permits shall comply with these regulations and all applicable requirements of the State of New York. Where the regulations of the Village and state are inconsistent, the more restrictive requirements shall govern.
