(1) Ground-floor uses within buildings in the C-2 District that are in existence prior to July 1,2021, shall be considered legally nonconforming with respect to parking even if they do not meet the minimum parking requirements for the use.

Findings and Purpose. Lower Beekman Avenue has a decidedly residential character, with large, generally wellmaintained homes set back from the sidewalk with small front yards, porches or stoops, and many mature street trees. Some of these homes have been converted to two- or three-family homes. The overall effect is to establish an attractive, walkable neighborhood that serves as a link between the downtown and the waterfront and can take advantage of both portions of the Village. Non-residential uses that are currently allowed in the C-2 district are appropriate on Lower Beekman Avenue, such as professional offices, child-care, or small boutiques, but the predominant visual character of the area should be preserved. §450-106. Location. The boundary of the Lower Beekman Avenue Design Standards Overlay District ("LBADS Overlay District") is current lots on Beekman Avenue west of Kendall Avenue and east of Clinton Street. §450-107.

This section encourages the adaptive and flexible reuse of such buildings to allow more economic and efficient use of the property. Special regulations are appropriate to this type of reuse because of the difficulty present in adapting these structures to allow economic and efficient use of the property. {01208321.doc.} - 6 - ��§450-109. Location. This provision may be applied within Zoning District C-2 and Zoning District R-5. §450-110. Eligible buildings.

The Planning Board may grant a special permit subject to the additional provisions set forth below to allow the use of an eligible building for uses which may not otherwise be allowed and such adaptive reuse of an existing building may occur within its existing footprint even if dimensionally nonconforming. §450-113. Site plan approval. The granting of a special permit for other than demolition of a religious, educational, or institutional structure pursuant to Section 450-112 shall require compliance with site plan review requirements. §450-114. Area, height, setback, etc. modifications.

Section 12. The Code of the Village of Sleepy Hollow is amended by adding a new Article XX to read as follows: Article XX Development Incentives for the C-2 District §450-117 Findings and purpose. The purpose of the development incentives and community benefits program is to encourage investment in the Inner Village of Sleepy Hollow, to incentivize development of underutilized sites.
