TOWN OF ITHACA
LOCAL LAW NO. 1 OF THE YEAR 2006
A LOCAL LAW AMENDING CHAPTER 270 OF THE CODE OF THE TOWN OF
ITHACA ENTITLED “ZONING” TO CLARIFY THE DEFINITION OF “LOT”
Be it enacted by the Town Board of the Town of Ithaca as follows:
Section 1. Section 270-5 of the Code of the Town of Ithaca, entitled
“§ 270-5. Definitions,” is hereby amended by deleting the current definition of “LOT”
and inserting a new definition reading as follows:
LOT - Any area of land bounded by property lines which is not divided
into parts by a public road or railroad. Each part of any area so divided by
a road or railroad is considered an individual lot for zoning and subdivision
purposes, but any further division of any such part shall occur only upon
compliance with the applicable regulations of Chapter 234, Subdivision of
Land, of the Code of the Town of Ithaca.
Section 2. If any provision of this law is found invalid by any court of competent
jurisdiction, such invalidity shall not affect any other provisions of this local law which
shall remain in full force and effect.
Section 3. This local law shall take effect upon publication of the local law or an
abstract of same in the official newspaper of the Town, or upon its filing with the New
York Secretary of State, whichever is the last to occur.
