�f (a) The Code Enforcement Officer becomes aware of a condition which
presently endangers, or in the future may endanger, life, health, property, or
the public welfare, including the health or welfare of any persons in or
around the premises subject to the temporary certificate.
(b) The Code Enforcement Officer determines in his judgment that the applicant
is not proceeding diligently and properly to complete whatever work remains
in order to obtain a permanent certificate of occupancy or certificate of
compliance.
(c) The Code Enforcement Officer becomes aware of information not previously
submitted or available that makes issuance of a temporary certificate of
occupancy or certificate of compliance reasonably inappropriate or
inadvisable.
(d) The Code Enforcement Officer determines the existence of any other
circumstance which reasonably requires the revocation of the certificate.
(8) The temporary certificate of occupancy or certificate of compliance shall be issued
for such period as the Code Enforcement Officer may elect, but not in any event to
exceed six months, except as provided below. However, the Code Enforcement
Officer may renew the certificate for one or more successive periods of not more
than six months per application upon payment of a fee calculated as if each
application were an application for the original issuance of such a temporary
certificate.
(9) Discretionary actions.
(a) Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of Subsection B(8) above,
however, the Town Board may, after public hearing on at least five days'
notice upon the application of the property owner, authorize the Code
Enforcement Officer:
[1] To issue a temporary certificate of occupancy or certificate of
compliance for a period greater than six months if the Board finds:
[a] It is likely the conditions which require the issuance of a
temporary certificate of occupancy or certificate of compliance will
extend for a period in excess of six months; and
[b] Denial of an extended period for the certificate would create a
significant hardship to the applicant; and
[c] It is reasonably anticipated that the applicant can complete the
project and obtain a permanent certificate no later than the
expiration date of the extended period; and
[d] The life of the temporary certificate, including any extended
period, is not greater than three years; and
125:13 06-01-2014
§ 125-7 ITHACA CODE § 125-7
[e] All other conditions for the issuance of a temporary certificate of
occupancy or certificate of compliance set forth in this § 125-713
have been met.
[2] To reduce or waive the fee charged for a temporary certificate of
occupancy or certificate of compliance if the Board finds:
[a] The fee for the original building permit was sufficiently large to
cover the costs to the Town, including Code Enforcement Officer
inspection time and review time, of processing, reviewing and
overseeing the issuance and implementation of the original
building permit, the final certificate of occupancy or certificate of
compliance, and any temporary occupancy certificates including
the one for which a reduction in fee is requested; and
[b] The payment of the fee as normally determined hereunder would
be a significant financial hardship to the applicant; and
[c] The need for the temporary certificate of occupancy or certificate
of compliance was not created by the lack of diligence of the
applicant in prosecuting the work of the project to completion; and
[d] The reduction in fee is the minimum necessary to alleviate the
hardship to the applicant and still cover the costs to the Town
referred to above; and
[e] All other conditions for the issuance of a temporary certificate of w}
occupancy or certificate of compliance set forth in this § 125-713
have been met.
(b) The Town Board, in granting an application for a longer temporary certificate
of occupancy or certificate of compliance or a reduction in fee may impose
such reasonable conditions as it deems appropriate under the circumstances
pertaining.
(10) A temporary certificate of occupancy or certificate of compliance can also be
granted by the Code Enforcement Officer in.those circumstances not involving
new construction where a violation of Chapter 270, Zoning, or other rule or
regulation becomes apparent to the Code Enforcement Officer, the owner or other
person in possession is taking action (either by construction or by application for
an appropriate variance) to correct the violation, and the issuance of the temporary
certificate of occupancy or certificate of compliance will not endanger life, health,
property, or the public welfare. The issuance of a temporary certificate of
occupancy or certificate of compliance under these circumstances and the right to
revoke same are governed by the same provisions relating to the issuance of a
temporary certificate of occupancy or certificate of compliance based upon
construction pursuant to a building permit.
(11) The fee for the issuance of a temporary certificate of occupancy or certificate of
compliance shall be as set from time to time by Town Board resolution.
125:14 06-01-2014
§ 125-7 BUILDING CONSTRUCTION AND FIRE PREVENTION § I25-8
C. A certificate of occupancy or certificate of compliance may be issued for any building or
individual dwelling unit at any other time after inspection thereof by request,
determination of compliance and payment of the fees as set from time to time by Town
Board resolution.
D. Revocation or suspension of certificates. If the Code Enforcement Officer determines that
a certificate of occupancy or certificate of compliance was issued in error because of
incorrect, inaccurate or incomplete information, and if the relevant deficiencies are not
corrected to the satisfaction of the Code Enforcement Officer within such period of time
as shall be specified by the Code Enforcement Officer, the Code Enforcement Officer
shall revoke or suspend such certificate.
§ 125-8. Operating permits.
A. No person, firm, corporation, association, or other organization or entity shall conduct the
activities or use or occupy any of the facilities listed below unless the owner or
authorized agent of the owner has applied for and has, after inspection as set forth in
Subsection C of this section and § 125-9 below, obtained an operating permit:

requirements of this chapter and may make any other recommendations which it deems
necessary to promote the general health, safety, morals, and welfare of the community.
The Planning Board shall then adopt a resolution recommending a) a finding regarding
environmental significance of the proposal, and b) either approval, approval with
modifications, or disapproval of the proposed plan. Before any such resolution is
adopted, the Planning Board shall hold a public hearing which shall be heard by the
Planning Board within 45 days of the filing of the general site plan and all related
materials with the Planning Board, and such hearing shall be advertised in a newspaper
of general circulation in the Town of Ithaca at least five days before such hearing. The

the general site plan and impose any modifications and additional requirements as it may
determine. Before finally establishing any such zone, the Town Board may refer the

plan, and provided the same do not violate any express conditions imposed by the Town
Board in creating the zone. In the case of zones other than Planned Development Zones,
the Planning Board may authorize changes or additions provided the same do not violate
any express conditions imposed by the Town Board in creating the zone.
J. Upon the creation of the zone, unless the general site plan was of sufficient detail and
contained sufficient information as to constitute, in the Town Board's discretion, a final
site plan, the matter shaII be referred to the Planning Board for final site plan approval in
accordance with the site plan approval process set forth below.

§ 270-185. Procedure.
A. The site plan process incorporates three successive stages: a) sketch plan review, b)
preliminary site plan approval, and c) final site plan approval. Final site plan approval is
required in all cases prior to the issuance of a building permit or certificate of occupancy
or certificate of compliance. The sketch plan review is at the option of the applicant
except as may be required by the Director of Planning if the proposed project is complex,
has significant potential effects on the environment, or if other conditions exist such that
a sketch review would be beneficial to the applicant or the Town. [Amended 5-12-2014
by L.L. No. 9-20141
B. Sketch plan review. The sole purpose of sketch plan review is to review generally and
informally the proposed project, advise the applicant as to whether it is reasonable to
anticipate a positive response to a formal application, and to highlight any concerns that
may be readily apparent to the Planning Board. No vote of approval or disapproval shall
be taken with respect to a sketch plan.
C. Preliminary site plan review. An applicant may, at his or her discretion, apply for
preliminary site plan approval. Further, if the Planning Board determines that an
application for final site plan approval is insufficient for an affirmative decision, the
Board may grant preliminary site plan approval with such conditions and restrictions as
are permitted by§ 271-a of the Town Law or any similar or successor statute.
D. Formal application.
(1) Unless other requirements of this chapter govern (e.g., the procedures for creation
of Planned Development Zone) the applicant shall make formal application for site
plan approval by submitting, at a minimum:
(a) One completed and signed development review application.
(b) Applicable application fees.
(c) Deposit of review fees.
(d) One fully completed and signed short environmental assessment form, Part I
(SEAF), or Iong environmental assessment form, Part I (LEAF), whichever is
required.
(e) Estimate of costs of site improvements (excluding cost of land acquisition
and professional fees) to be prepared (preferably) by a licensed professional
engineer.
(f) Four full-size dark-line prints of the site plan and 25 reduced copies of all
sheets of the plan (the reduced copies to be no larger than I I inches by 17

and the Planning Board in those circumstances where a site plan is provided for Planning
Board review, may waive one or more items (e.g., topography) otherwise normally required to
be shown on the site plan when the applicable board determines that the circumstances of the
application do not require a full site plan for adequate consideration of the applicant's
proposal.
§ 270-188. Considerations for approval.
The Planning Board's review of a site plan shall include as appropriate, but shall not be
limited to, the following considerations:
A. Adequacy, arrangement, and location of vehicular access and circulation, including

E. A demolition, or a proposed demolition, of an existing building, or of a previously
approved building on a previously approved site plan, is a modification of a site plan
subject to the terms of this section.
§ 270-192. Letter of credit.
If the Planning Board determines it is necessary to ensure that all items on the site plan that
are needed to provide for adequate traffic flow, utilities, and other similar infrastructure items,
are constructed in accordance with the approved final site plan and any other pertinent
specifications and requirements, no building permit shall be issued for a project with an
approved final site plan until the applicant has furnished to the Town Engineer an irrevocable
letter of credit in an amount to be recommended by the Town Engineer and approved by the
Planning Board to ensure such construction. In determining whether to require such a letter,
the Planning Board shall find that such infrastructure is so integral to the project that its
construction must occur in order to provide for a safe and useful environment for the
community and the occupants and users of the project. The Planning Board may, in its
discretion, accept in lieu of a letter of credit other evidence or promise of completion of
required facilities for the site if it determines that such other evidence adequately ensures such
completion. Nothing in this section shall alter any other requirement for letters of credit
related to construction of facilities intended to be dedicated to the Town.
§ 270-193. Completion of improvements. [Amended 5-12-2014 by L.L. No. 9-20141
No final certificate of occupancy or certificate of compliance shall be issued until all
improvements shown on the final site plan as approved by the Planning Board, reasonably
necessary to the proper and safe operation and occupancy of any completed facilities, are
installed or until a sufficient performance guarantee, such as a letter of credit, has been
provided to the Town for improvements not yet completed. The need for, and sufficiency of,
such performance guarantee shall be determined by the Town Engineer after consultation with
the Building Inspector or other persons designated by the Planning Board. The Planning
Board may waive the requirement for such performance guarantee if, in its discretion, it
determines that the guarantee is not needed.
§ 270-194. Expiration of site plan approval.
A. Except when a rezoning has occurred based upon a preliminary or general site plan any
approval of a preliminary site plan may be revoked by the Planning Board, after a public
hearing and upon written notice in person or by mail to the applicant:
(1) If a fully complete application for final site plan approval has not been submitted
to the PIanning Board within 18 months of the date preliminary approval was
granted, or
(2) If an application is submitted within such eighteen-month period, such application
is not diligently prosecuted by the owner to enable the Planning Board to grant
final site plan approval within 24 months of the date preliminary approval was
granted.
270:101 06-01-2014
§ 270-194 ITHACA CODE § 270-196
B. The Planning Board may, when compliance with the foregoing time periods would create
a significant hardship for the owner, extend the time periods for such periods and upon
such conditions as the Planning Board may reasonably determine.
C. Unless work has materially commenced in accordance with the final site plan within one
year from the issuance of the building permit authorizing such work, or within 36 months
of the date the Planning Board gave final site plan approval, whichever is earlier, not
only the building permit but the site plan approval (both final and preliminary) shall
expire and the permissible uses and construction on the property shall revert to those in
effect prior to the granting of any site plan approval. The Planning Board, upon request
of the applicant, after a public hearing, and upon a finding that the imposition of the time
limits set forth above would create an undue hardship on the applicant, may extend the
time limits for such additional periods as the Planning Board may reasonably determine.
An application for such extension may be made at the time of filing of the original
application or at any time thereafter up to, but no later than, six months after the
expiration of the time limits set forth above.
(1) For the purposes of this section, work will not have "materially commenced'
unless, at a minimum:
(a) A building permit, if required, has been obtained;
(b) Construction equipment and tools consistent with the size of the proposed
work have been brought to and been used on the site; and
(c) Substantial excavation (where excavation is required) or significant framing,
erection, or construction (where excavation is not required) has been started
and is being diligently pursued.

PIanning Board, such reduction shall be subject to the following additional
conditions:
(a) Any space that is made available by the reduction in the required number of
parking spaces may not be used for construction of any structures.
(b) Any land made available by virtue of such reduction be landscaped with
grass or other vegetation approved by the Planning Board.
(c) If, any time within five years after construction of the project is completed
(completion of construction to be the date a permanent certificate of
occupancy or certificate of compliance has been issued by the Town for the
entire project), the parking is found to be inadequate because: [Amended
5-12-2014 by L.L. No. 9-20141
[1] The demand for parking spaces on the project site exceeds on more than
two occasions annually the number of parking spaces available; or
[21 The traffic flow through the parking area creates an undesirable or
hazardous condition by reason of the reduction of parking spaces; or
[3] There is repeatedly undue congestion in the parking areas by reason of
the reduction of parking spaces;
Then the developer or subsequent owner of the project will install additional
parking spaces up to the minimum number that would have been otherwise
t—` required by the terms of this chapter without granting any reduction. Unless
waived by the Planning Board, the granting of the requested reduction in
parking shall be conditioned on the developer or applicant executing an
agreement in form acceptable to the Planning Board and acceptable for
recording in the Tompkins County Clerk's office agreeing to install the
additional parking spaces as may be required by the above conditions.
(d) In the event there is (whether before or after the five-year period set forth
above) any significant change in use, or a subdivision of the project site, or a
sale of a portion of the site, with respect to which a reduction in the required
number of parking spaces has been granted, such change, subdivision, or sale
may be conditioned upon a requirement that additional parking spaces be
required up to the minimum that would have otherwise been required but for
the reduction granted pursuant to these provisions.
(e) Parking spaces shall be surfaced with blacktop, compacted gravel, or other
dust-free material, and must be graded so as to drain properly.
(4) The Planning Board, in conducting site plan reviews, is authorized, for good cause
shown and providing there is no adverse effects on the project, on the surrounding
properties, or on the neighborhood, to allow a reduction of the standard size of a
parking space to less than the otherwise required 180 square feet, exclusive of
circulation and turning areas.

the site plan criteria set forth elsewhere in this chapter, that the particular use,
nature, or location of the project under review, or other circumstances, require that
parking be to the rear of the principal building on the site to mitigate or avoid
adverse effects on the project, on adjacent properties, or on the neighborhood
generally, the Planning Board shall have the authority to require the parking to be
so located.
C. Agricultural Zones:

development of a wide variety of employment opportunities for residents, and
supports the continued vitality of existing employers by ensuring that there is
adequate and suitable space available.

commercial areas which are safe and attractive, set back from public highways,
have good circulation and access, are well-landscaped (to provide buffering, shade,
and character) and located so as to meet present and anticipated neighborhood
needs while not adversely affecting surrounding neighborhoods, and of an
architectural design that enhances their neighborhoods.
(3) The Ithaca Beer Company (IBC) proposes to develop and locate an expanded
brewery, welcome center, and restaurant with an outdoor patio and garden,
