Village Board adopts Local Law No. 1 (2026) establishing subdivision rules
Summary
The Village Board adopted Local Law No. 1 (2026) to set procedures and standards for land subdivisions in Nassau, after approving a short environmental assessment and negative declaration required by the law.
The Chair summarized the proposed Local Law No. 1 (2026), explaining it "sets forth regulations relating to the subdivision of land within the village," including classification of projects (boundary line adjustment, minor subdivision, major subdivision), submission requirements, and standards for drainage, water, sewer, roads and driveways. The Chair said the Nassau Village Planning Board will administer the provisions and noted the short environmental assessment form included in the board packet.
Before a final vote, the board completed the required environmental review. A Committee member moved to approve the short environmental assessment/negative declaration (Neg. DEC) for the law; the motion was seconded and approved by voice vote. The board then moved to adopt Local Law No. 1 (2026). A member asked whether the law affects subdivisions already in motion and was told it does not; the board approved adoption by voice vote.
