Subdivision of Property
Newstead's code regarding subdivision is specific. Any lot divided, which creates one or more new lots must have Planning Board approval and a public hearing held. A major subdivision is the creation of five or more lots (original lot + four or more new lots) and will be recommended to the Town Board for public hearing and to begin the SEQR process. An updated survey, showing the dimensions of the new lot(s) including a drainage plan showing existing and proposed elevations must accompany an application. Fees are listed in the FEE section of the home page.
