A. All land annexed to the Village is classified automatically upon such annexation as the R-1 District.
B. A petition for annexation to the Village of Mettawa may include a request from the petitioner that the land being annexed may, upon annexation, be zoned other than the R-1 District. Should such a request be contained in the petition, the proper authorities will refer the matter to the Zoning, Planning, and Appeals Commission to conduct a public hearing and make their recommendations. Following the recommendation of the Zoning, Planning, and Appeals Commission, the Village Board will proceed to take a vote as they normally do in zoning matters and notify the petitioner of the results. If the decision is adverse to his request, the petitioner then may withdraw his petition for annexation or may continue with it. Should no request for zoning other than R-1 District be made, the property upon annexation to the Village will automatically be classified to the R-1 District.
