(A) Compliance. No structure, land or water shall hereafter be used and no structure or part thereof shall hereafter be located, erected, moved, reconstructed, extended, enlarged, converted or structurally altered without full compliance with the provisions of this chapter and all other applicable village, county and state regulations, with provision for municipal sanitary sewer.
(B) Use restrictions. The following use restrictions and regulations shall apply:
(1) Principal uses. Only those principal uses specified for a district, their essential services and the following shall be permitted in that district.
(2) Accessory uses. Accessory uses and structures are permitted in any district, but not until their principal structure is present or under construction. Residential accessory uses shall not involve the conduct of any business, trade or industry. Accessory uses include incidental repairs, storage, parking facilities, gardening; servant's and watchman's quarters not for rent, private swimming pools, and private emergency shelters. In non-residential districts, accessory buildings shall not occupy more than 30% of the required area for the rear yard and shall be constructed only after or concurrently with the construction of the principal building.
(3) Unclassified or unspecified uses. Unclassified or unspecified uses may be permitted by the Village Board after the Plan Commission has made a review and recommendation, provided that such uses are similar in character to the principal uses permitted in the district.
(4) Temporary uses/structures. Temporary uses such as real estate sales field offices or shelters for materials and equipment being used in the construction of a permanent structure may be permitted by the Village Board for a period not exceeding one year. See § 90.09.
(C) Yard reduction or joint use.
(1) No lot area shall be so reduced that the yards and open spaces shall be smaller than is required by this chapter, nor shall the density of population be increased in any manner except in conformity with the area regulations hereby established for the district in which a building or premises is located.
(2) No part of a yard or other open space provided about any building for the purpose of complying with the provisions of this chapter shall be included as a part of a yard or other open space required for another building.
(3) No lot in the village which contains a building shall hereafter be reduced by any type of conveyance to an area less than would be required for the construction of such building on such lot.
(D) Lot occupancy. Every building hereafter erected, converted, enlarged or structurally altered shall be located on a platted lot or parcel of record and in no case shall there be more than one principal building on one lot or parcel unless approved by the Village Board.
(E) Yards abutting district boundaries. Any side yard, rear yard or court abutting a district boundary line shall have a minimum width and depth in the less restricted district equal to the average of the required minimum widths and depths for such yards in the two districts which abut the district boundary line.
(F) Storage limitation. No required side yard or front yard in the commercial or manufacturing districts shall be used for storage or the conduct of business.
(G) Vision clearance. No obstructions such as structures, parking or vegetation shall be permitted in any district other than the B-1 District between the height of two and one-half and ten feet above a plane through the mean curb grades within the triangular space formed by any two existing or proposed intersecting street or alley right of way lines and a line joining points on such lines, located a minimum of 15 feet from their intersection. Official signs, utility poles, tree trunks and wire fences may be permitted within each segment of an intersection traffic visibility area. In the case of a collector or arterial street intersecting with other streets or railroads, the corner cutoff distance establishing the triangle vision clearance space shall be increased to 30 feet.
(J) Setbacks from the water.
(1) All buildings and structures shall be set back at least 75 feet from the ordinary high-water mark of navigable waters.
(2) A setback of less than that required by division (J)(1) above may be permitted by the Zoning Administrator where there is at least one main building on either side of the applicant's lot, within 200 feet of the proposed site that is built to less than the required setback. In such case, the setback shall be the average of the setbacks of the nearest main building on each side of the proposed site or, if there is an existing main building on only one side, the setback shall be the average of the existing building's setback and the required setback. Any other setback reduction may be permitted by the Board of Zoning Appeals pursuant to § 155.38.
(K) One- and two-family dwelling aesthetic standards. All one- and two-family dwellings shall comply with the following minimum aesthetic standards:
