Q: Can you tell me if my lot is buildable? Will you write a 'Letter of Buildability'?
A: Current zoning requirements are contained in Chapter 55 of the Village code (available online). If you cannot meet the zoning requirements, you must apply for a variance. Since the Building Department cannot predict whether or not the Board will approve a variance, we cannot determine if a property is able to be built upon. Furthermore, the applicant may be subject to the requirements of other government entities, such as the Suffolk County Health Department or the Department of Environmental Conservation, which may or may not allow you to build on a lot.
The building department does not furnish letters regarding what may or may not be built on a property.
Q: How do I update my Certificate of Occupancy?
A: Bring a survey completed within the last six months and the application fee to the Building Department. At that time an on-site inspection by the building inspector will be scheduled. Upon successful inspection an updated Certificate of Occupancy will be issued-- typically within two weeks. The Building Department will contact the applicant when the Certificate is completed.
Q: What is required to apply for a building permit?
A: You must supply a building permit application, a Certificate of Appropriateness (only if the work is being conducted in the Historic District), an application fee, two surveys indicating the proposed work (only the surveyor may make modifications to the survey), architectural plans (all plans must be stamped and signed by a licensed New York State architect), the name of the builder and the builder's proof of workers compensation coverage. If the application being submitted is for a pool, a catalog cut (section) of the pool must be included.
Q: What are the acceptible forms of proof for workers compensation?
A: The only acceptible proofs of workers compensation are forms c-105.2 and u-26.3. Acord forms are NOT accepted.

Q: Will the Village pick up my leaves?
A: Yes. The Village will remove leaves left at the curb during the months of November and April. Leaves that are in bags are not accepted.
Q: Will the Village remove my logs/brush/hedge clippings/grass clippings?
A: In the month of April the Village will remove winter kill and light brush. Brush must not be longer than 6 feet nor have a diameter larger than 3-1/2 inches. Debris must be the result of Winter damage or Spring cleanup. Homeowners may not use the Spring cleanup services provided by the Village to clear property, remove trees and shrubs, or remove other debris that is the result of periodic maintenance. Unauthorized debris left curbside will not be picked up.
Q: Where should I park my car during a snowstorm?
A: In an effort to promote the efficient removal of snow and prevent damage to resident's vehicles, Village code section 50-63 prohibits the parking of vehicles on public streets between 12:00AM and 6:30AM after there has been an accumulation of more than one inch of snow. All persons should park their vehicles in their driveway or make other arrangements to have their vehicles off the street. Vehicles in violation of 50-63 may be issued a parking ticket or may be towed at the owner's expense.
