SECTION 209-C
Maps, plans and reports
Town (TWN) CHAPTER 62, ARTICLE 12-A
§ 209-c. Maps, plans and reports. The establishment or extension of an
improvement district shall be based upon a map, plan and report prepared
in such manner and in such detail as determined by the town board and
such map, plan and report shall be filed in the office of the town
clerk. In the case of a sewer, drainage or water district such maps,
plans and reports shall be prepared by a competent engineer, duly
licensed by the state of New York, showing the boundaries of the
proposed district and a general plan of the proposed sewer, drainage or
water system, as the case may be, and a report of the proposed method of
operation. If a sewer or drainage district is proposed, such map shall
show all outlets and the terminus and course of each proposed main sewer
or drain together with the location and a general description of all
sewage disposal plants, pumping stations and other public works, if any,
and shall be consistent with, so far as possible, any comprehensive plan
for sewers developed and maintained pursuant to section ninety-nine-f of
the general municipal law. If a water district is proposed, said map and
plan shall show the source of water supply and a description of the
lands, streams, water or water rights to be acquired therefor, the mode
of constructing the proposed water works and the location thereof,
including reservoirs, water purification or treatment works, water
mains, distributing pipes and hydrants, and shall be consistent with, so
far as possible, any comprehensive plan for public water supply systems
developed and maintained pursuant to section ninety-nine-f of the
general municipal law. If, however, the supply of water to be used in
said water district is to be purchased from a municipal or other
corporation, or any person, then said map and plan shall set forth and
show only the water mains, distributing pipes, hydrants, reservoirs, if
any, and location of each. Before any sewer system is constructed in any
such district, the town board shall cause a copy of the map and plan of
the proposed sewer system and sewage disposal plant or proposed
extension thereto to be submitted to the state department of health,
and, if approved, it shall be filed in the office of the state
department of health and the town clerk. The state department of health
may require profiles to be submitted for any sewers or drains shown on
such map and plan. Such map and plan may be amended with the approval of
the state department of health and if approved, shall be filed in the
office of the state department of health and the town clerk.
