The definition for “Lot Line, Front” shall be amended to read as follows: LOT LINE, FRONT The lot line which separates a lot's front yard from a street or highway right-of-way. For flag lots, the front lot line is the line of the “flag” portion of the lot closest and most parallel to the street accessed by the lot; this would typically be the bottom of the flag. The base of the “flag pole” is not considered the front lot line. R. The definition for “Lot Width” shall be amended to read as follows: LOT WIDTH The distance between the side lot lines as measured across the required front yard minimum setback line. S. The definition for “Yard, Front” shall be amended to read as follows: The yard lying between the front lot line and the principal building. See “lot line, 5 Page 23 front.” Each lot shall only have one front yard, except for the purpose of determining setbacks for a principal structure on a corner lot (see §307-18(G)). Section 10: Amendments to Section 307-8(C) of the Town Code Section 307-8. Conformance required has several subsections. The text of Section 307-8(C) of the Town Code has led to debate an application for a determination to the Zoning Board of Appeals. The language of Section 307-8(C) shall be amended and replaced with the following language: Any lot with an area less than that prescribed for a lot in the district in which such lot is situated, when the owner thereof owned adjoining land on or after the effective date of this chapter or any subsequent amendment which increases the required lot area for such parcel, shall be deemed to have merged with said adjoining land to form a single parcel. If all adjoining lots under common ownership are merged but still do not meet the minimum lot area requirements, the lots are still considered merged into a single parcel; in such cases, the parcel’s lot area will be considered in conformance and will not require relief from the ZBA for lot area. However, all other dimensional requirements must either be met or relief from those requirements must be sought from the Zoning Board of Appeals. Section 11: Amendments to Section 307-17: Table of Dimensional Regulations The text of Section 307-17 shall be amended to read as follows: Regulations regarding minimum lot area, minimum lot width, yards, maximum height, and maximum lot coverage are set forth on the Table of Dimensional Regulations. Additional dimensional regulations are contained in § 307-18 and in Article VII. Section 12: Amendments to Section 307-18(G) The existing text in Section 307-18(G) is about “Additional density and design standards for land to be subdivided”. This language is more appropriate for the Town’s subdivision chapter (Chapter 265 of the Town Code). Because of this, the current language in Section 307-18(G) shall be deleted and moved to create a new Section 265-19(M). In addition, the following shall be added as Section 307-18(G), in place of the text being moved to Section 265: §307-18(G): Corner Lots. (1) On a corner lot, all yards fronting a street or highway are considered front yards for the purpose of determining setbacks for the principal structure. 6 Page 24 (2) Only one yard, as determined by the Director of Code Enforcement or designee, will be considered the front yard for the purpose of determining allowable locations for accessory structures. (3) The minimum setback for accessory structures in the determined side yard with frontage on a street or highway shall be the lesser of double those of the underlying zoning district or the required front yard. Section 13: Creation of new Section 307-18(H) and deletion of Section 307-18(D)(2) a) Addition of new Section: The following shall be added as a new Section within Section 307-18 Supplementary Dimensional Regulations: §307-18(H) Accessory structures and impervious surfaces within setbacks. Non-structural freestanding walls, retaining walls, patios, and impervious surfaces may be constructed within setbacks pending review and approval the Director of the Department of Technical Services (DOTS) or designee to verify compliance with applicable building codes as well as for drainage adequacy. b) Deletion: The text of Section 307-18(D)(2) shall be deleted and shall not be replaced. The following text shall be deleted and replaced with the word “Reserved”. Text to be deleted: Any proposed retaining wall with an exposed face greater than four feet in height and any proposed impervious surfaces within 20 feet of a lot line must be approved by the Town Engineer or his designated representative for drainage adequacy. Section 14: Creation of a new Section 307-18(I): Flag Lots The following shall be added as a new Section to the Town’s Zoning Chapter: §307-18(I): Flag lots. (1) Flag lots may only be created if it is shown to the satisfaction of the Planning Board that the parcel has an environmental or topographical hardship which prevents a non-flag-configured division of the property. Furthermore, it must be shown to the satisfaction of the Planning Board that the proposed flag lot will not, for reason of flooding, inadequate drainage, adverse soil or rock formation, unfavorable topography, or for any other reason, be harmful to the health, safety or welfare of the property owner, adjacent landowners, or the community. (2) No more than one flag lot may be created through the division of a single parcel. (3) Each flag lot shall provide at least 50 feet of frontage along the street, and the width of the strip of land ("flagpole") connecting the buildable portion of the 7 Page 25 flag lot with the street shall be at least 50 feet along its entire length. (4) The area of the access strip (the "flagpole") shall not be included in calculating minimum lot area. (5) The area of the main buildable portion of the lot, excluding the access strip, shall conform to all other bulk regulations in the underlying zoning district. Section 15: Creation of a new Section 307-18(J): Temporary Encroachments. The following shall be added as a new Section to the Town’s Zoning Chapter: Section 307-18(J): Temporary Encroachments. Temporary encroachments into a non-disturbance area of up to 20% of the depth of the non- disturbance area are permitted during construction so long as the disturbed area is restored to a condition acceptable to the Director of the Department of Technical Services, the Town Attorney, and the Director of Planning & Community Development. Section 16: Amendments to Section 307-42(B) Section 307-42: General Conditions and Standards pertains to special permits. The text of Section 307-42(B) shall be amended to read as follows: In addition to the general standards for special permits set forth above and additional standards set forth elsewhere in this chapter for specific uses, the approving board may, as a condition of approval of such use, establish any other conditions and requirements as it may deem necessary or appropriate to promote the public health, safety and welfare, including but not limited to hours and days of operation, additional on-site parking, and arrangements for security and supervision. Section 17: Amendments to Section 307-45 Accessory Dwelling Unit (ADU) Section 307-45 of the Town Code contains provisions pertaining to Accessory Dwelling Units. Section 307-45(C)(5) has dimensional requirements. The amended text of Section 307-45(C)(5) is in bold below: 5. Dimensional Requirements: a. The Accessory Dwelling Unit shall not exceed 800 square feet of gross floor area or 40% of the gross floor area of the single-family dwelling, whichever is less, except that an Attached ADU proposed wholly within the basement of an existing single-family dwelling may encompass the footprint of the structure even if it exceeds 800 square feet provided it shall not exceed 40% of the gross floor area of the single-family dwelling. 8 Page 26 b. Maximum number of bedrooms in an accessory dwelling unit is two bedrooms. c. For Detached ADUs, minimum yard setbacks apply except where an existing accessory building encroaches into the minimum side and/or rear yard setbacks by no more than 10%, such encroachment can be waived by the Planning Board as a de minimis encroachment during the special permit review process to permit a Detached ADU, and the applicant would not need to obtain a variance from the ZBA for the encroachment. To be eligible for this exception, the existing accessory building shall have a certificate of occupancy/compliance issuance date at least five (5) years prior to when application is made for the Detached ADU. d. No Detached ADU shall be located in a required front yard or corner lot side yard that faces the public street. e. The maximum height of the structure containing a Detached ADU shall not exceed the height of the structure containing the principal residence on the lot. Section 18: Amendments to Section 307-48: Business and professional offices and two-family dwellings in transitional locations. There have been questions that have recently arisen about whether Section 307-48 applies to medical uses. After reviewing the existing section, the language of Section 307-48 should be updated including the title of the section. The language shall be updated as follows: Section 307-48. Business, medical, and professional offices and two-family dwellings in transitional locations. A. Purpose. Recognizing that the potential for conflict between incompatible land uses is greatest at the boundary between residential and nonresidential districts, it is the purpose and intent of this section to provide for and encourage low-intensity office uses and two-family dwellings in locations where they can contribute to an orderly transition between commercial uses and residential uses. To ensure any medical office use in transitional locations remains a low-intensity use, additional requirements regarding maximum gross square footage and number of parking spaces are included, and shall not be varied by the Zoning Board of Appeals. B. Standards and conditions. (1) Uses. Business, medical, and professional offices and two-family dwellings located entirely within a building, including accessory uses thereto, are permitted. Retail sales of goods or services and storage of products are prohibited. Signs shall be permitted as specified in Chapter 245, Signs, of the Town of Cortlandt Code. (2) Location. Business, medical, and professional office uses and two-family dwellings as regulated by this section may be permitted only in transitional locations as defined by this chapter. 9 Page 27 (3) Dimensional requirements. Minimum lot area, width and yard dimensions and maximum lot coverage and building height shall be as follows: (a) For business, medical, and professional offices: as specified for a single-family dwelling in the district in which the proposed office use is located. 1. In addition, the gross square footage permitted for a medical office use shall not exceed 2,000 square feet. (b) For two-family dwellings: as specified for a two-family dwelling in the RG District. (4) Parking. A parking plan showing parking areas, landscaping and adjacent uses shall be submitted as part of the application for a special permit. Off- street parking shall be provided as required by this chapter except that parking for a medical office shall not exceed ten (10) total spaces. Parking areas shall not be located in front yards, unless the permit-granting authority finds that the parking requirement cannot be satisfied by locating the required parking spaces in side and rear yards. In such cases, no more than 50% of the required parking spaces may be located in front yards. (5) Screening. Parking areas shall be screened along all lot lines adjacent to other lots in residential districts by fencing and planted materials in a manner such that the visual impacts of such areas upon adjacent properties are minimized. (6) Residential appearance. In cases where alterations are to be made to the building facade, facade renderings showing the proposed alterations are to be submitted as a part of the application for a special permit. Existing and proposed buildings shall maintain a residential appearance to the extent feasible in the judgment of the permit-granting authority. In making this judgment, the permit-granting authority shall consider the following: (a) Front, side or rear building elevation visible from a street, including the size and arrangement of doors, windows, porticos, garages, chimneys or other openings or breaks. (b) Other significant design features, such as but not limited to materials, color, roof shape, exposed mechanical equipment, service and storage enclosures, signs, landscaping, retaining walls, dividing walls, fences and lighting posts. 10 Page 28 Section 19: Amendments to Article XI of Chapter 307 of the Town Code a) The title, Article XI: Additional Special Permit Standards and Conditions for Specific Uses, shall be renamed as follows: ARTICLE XI: SUPPLEMENTAL REGULATIONS b) Addition of Section 307-44.1. Applicability. The following shall be added to the Town Code: Section 307-44.1. Applicability. The uses listed below shall be subject to such additions, exceptions, and/or modifications as provided herein by the following supplemental regulations. These supplemental regulations shall apply in all cases, whether the use is permitted as-of- right or requires a special permit. c) Deletions The following provisions shall be eliminated from the Code: i. Section 307-61: Junkyard: Remove Section 307-61(A)(9) Text to be removed: Permit duration and renewal. Permits shall be issued conditionally for three-year periods upon a showing of compliance with the terms and conditions of this chapter and the special permit during the preceding permit period. ii.

An application for renewal of the special permit shall be made to the Code Enforcement Department on a form provided by that department and with a fee in an amount set forth in a fee schedule adopted by the Town Board. The Code Enforcement Department shall reissue the permit if inspection of the premises finds it to be in compliance with all applicable codes, the requirements of this section and the provisions of the original approval. Should the Code Enforcement Department find that the premises are not in compliance with all applicable codes, they shall initiate appropriate enforcement procedures. iii. Section 307-65.3: Private nature preserves open to public: Remove Section 307-65.3- (B)(8) Text to be removed: Permits hereunder shall be issued for terms of five years and may be renewed by the Planning Board.

Upon a finding that the permit holder has substantially complied with the prior permit, the Planning Board may extend the permit for an additional five-year period. The same renewal process shall occur for any permit or renewal granted hereunder. iv.

The Fall 2025 analysis indicated there were approximately 12 lane miles or roads rated a “5” and in need of resurfacing. Projected cost was $4.3 million adjusted to the current fiscal year. 5. The Fall 2025 analysis indicated there were approximately 45 lane miles or roads rated a “4”, which are on the watch list and typically in need of significant pot hole repair. The total cost to resurface these roads is estimated to be $18.8 million adjusted to the current fiscal year. Screenshot or RoadInsights GIS Software 6. The Town of Cortlandt is comparable to many adjacent communities PCI, as per PMG shown within the following table. 7. The Town’s paving contract includes a clause to address asphalt price adjustments (established by the NYSDOT) in the event there is a substantial increase or decrease (greater or less than $15) in asphalt costs during the project. 8. The Town’s paving contract includes a piggy back clause for the Village of Buchanan. There is no Dept. of Technical Services 2 Page 54 piggybacking clause with Croton. 9. The proposed contract contains a clause to extend the contract upon mutual agreement between Town and Contractor for additional services, not to extend past fiscal year 2027. Any additional expenditure requires Town Board approval. Budgeting: 1. Staff is proposing in 2026 to pave 5.44 miles of road with a rounded budget estimate in line with previous year’s paving expenditures. If the budget allows an additional .59 miles of road will be paved as first alternates. 2. The 2026 adopted budget provided a paving range of $1.2 - $1.4 million dollars. Sources of funding include: o Consolidated Local Streets and Highway Improvements (CHIPS) o Pave our Potholes (POPS) o Pave NY o Extreme Winter Recovery (EWR) o General / Highway Fund NYSDOT provided correspondence to the Town of Cortlandt on Sept. 18, 2025 indicating the following available balances through Nov. 5, 2025, totaling $744,562.68 of paving reimbursement for fiscal year 2025 with $675,378.81 received so far to date (POPS outstanding). 3. The Town in the past has “paid as you go” avoiding bonding and long-term debt. 4. An additional $50,000 will be requested as an allowance for daily construction inspection services. This has averaged between $25,000 - $30,000 in years past. In 2025 DOTS was able to perform all construction inspection. However, this year DOTS will not be able to provide daily coverage. 5. Please note, that with the uncertainty in the oil and futures markets, we expect significant fluctuation in oil pricing and production, which may lead to an increase in asphalt and fuel pricing. Once final roads are selected DOTS will reach out to all residents that have inquired about resurfacing this year. Please do not hesitate to contact us with any questions or comments relative to the 2026 paving effort.
