A. Minimum Requirements: Every provision of this title shall be construed liberally in favor of the City, and every regulation set forth herein shall be considered the minimum requirement for the promotion of the public health, safety, and welfare.
B. More Restrictive Requirements Apply: Whenever the requirements of this title differ from those of any statute, lawfully adopted ordinance or regulation, easement, covenant, or deed restriction, the more stringent requirement shall prevail. Thus, in accordance with State law (65 Illinois Compiled Statutes 5/11-12-11), whenever this title imposes higher standards than the Jersey County Subdivision Code, said higher standards shall supersede the County regulations in the unincorporated territory located within the City’s subdivision jurisdiction.
