An excerpt from a recent article from the National Law Review:
“Long Island municipalities have been revising their zoning ordinances to address evolving community needs, environmental considerations, and intelligent development, expanding the list of uses that require special use permits.”
“A special use permit (also known as a “special permit,” “special exception,” or “conditional use permit”) is a land use approval for a use that is generally considered to be permitted in the respective zoning district subject to compliance with additional standards or conditions. “
