COMMERCIAL ADDITION/ALTERATIONS

The applicant is seeking a building permit and use authorization for interior alterations and a tenant fit-out to reconfigure an existing retail food shop featuring established seating for 16 occupants. Pursuant to § 306-11 of the Code of the Incorporated Village of Northport (Central Business A District), the proposed operation constitutes a permitted-as-of-right principal use, maintaining the property’s established commercial classification as a retail/mercantile facility. No change of use group under the Uniform Fire Prevention and Building Code is requested or required. The subject commercial space encompasses a total floor area of 800 square feet. Prior to the issuance of a Permitted Use/Certificate of Occupancy, the project requires successful inspection clearances from the New York State Department of Agriculture and Markets, the Incorporated Village of Northport Building Inspector, and the Village Fire Marshal. No alcoholic beverages requiring a New York State Liquor Authority (SLA) license will be sold or served on the premises until such license has been formally issued.
