By the authority of Article 2 and 3 of Municipal Home Rule Law and Article 16 of the Town Law of the State of New York, the Planning Board of the Town of Vienna is authorized and empowered to approve preliminary and final plats of subdivisions showing lots, blocks or sites with or without streets or highways, within that part of the Town of Vienna outside the limits of any incorporated village, and to approve the development of plats entirely or partially undeveloped, which were filed in the office of the county clerk prior to the appointment of the planning board and the grant to the planning board of the power to approve plats.

It is the policy of the Town of Vienna to consider land subdivision plats as part of a plan for the orderly efficient and economical development of the town. This means, among other things, that land to be subdivided shall be of such character that it can be used safely for building purposes without danger to health, or peril from fire, flood or other menace; that proper provision shall be made for drainage, water supply, sewerage, access, and other needed improvements; that all proposed lots shall be so laid out and of such size as to be in harmony with the development pattern of the neighboring properties, and consistent with the purpose and intent of the Town of Vienna Zoning Law; that the proposed roads shall compose a convenient system properly related to the proposals shown on the master/comprehensive plan, and shall be of such width, grade and location as to accommodate the prospective traffic, to facilitate fire protection and to proved access of fire fighting equipment to buildings; that proper provision shall be made for open spaces for parks and playgrounds; and that environmental conservation and agricultural district impacts are evaluated where applicable.

This law shall replace and supersede the Town of Vienna Subdivision Regulations adopted by the planning board on July 24, 1973 and approved by the town board on August 1, 1973.
