Local Law No. 7 - 2013
This local law shall be known as the “Expansion of the Mailing Area for Notification of Land Use
Applications in certain Zoning Districts” Law.
BE IT ENACTED by the Town Board of the Town of Mamaroneck
Section 1 – Purpose:
The current notification procedures for land use applications have been in effect since
2005. Though the procedures have worked reasonably well, the Town Board has determined
that the distance for determining to whom notice of an application should be sent should be
lengthened from 300 feet to 1,500 feet for lots located within the larger zoning districts. This
law increases the notification area with respect to those districts.
Section 2 – Amendment of a current section of the Mamaroneck Code:
Section 144-2 of the Code of the Town of Mamaroneck hereby is amended by repealing the
portion of that section entitled “MAILING AREA” and substituting the following in its place:
MAILING AREA
(1) 1,500 linear feet from each of the lot lines and corners of the subject property if
the subject property lies within the R-15, R-20, R-30 or R-50 zoning district.
(2) 300 linear feet from each of the lot lines and corners of the subject property if the
subjectproperty lies within a zoning district other than the R-15, R-20, R-30 or
R-50 zoning districts.
Section 3 – Severability:
Should any provision of this Local Law be declared invalid or unconstitutional by any court of
competent jurisdiction, such declaration of unconstitutionality or invalidity shall not affect any
other provisions of this Local Law, which may be implemented without the invalid or
unconstitutional provisions.
Section 4 – Effective Date:
This Local Law shall become effective upon filing with the Secretary of State.
