(A) Permitted Uses. Permitted uses of land or buildings, as hereinafter listed, shall be permitted in the districts indicated under the conditions specified. Unless otherwise specifically set forth, wherever a permitted use is named as a major category in this Article, it shall be deemed to include all and only those itemized uses under the said major category.
(1) No building or tract of land shall be devoted to any use other than a use permitted hereinafter in the zoning district in which such building or tract of land shall be located, with the exception of the following:
(a) Uses lawfully established on the effective date of this chapter;
(b) Conditional uses, allowed in accordance with the provisions of subsection (B) below.
(2) Uses established on the effective date of this chapter and rendered nonconforming by the provisions thereof shall be subject to the regulations of Article IV, regulating nonconforming buildings, structures and uses.
(B) Conditional Uses. Conditional uses, as hereinafter listed, may be allowed in the zoning districts indicated, subject to the issuance of conditional use permits. Unless otherwise specifically set forth, wherever a conditional use is named as a major category in this Article, it shall be deemed to include all and only those itemized uses listed under the said category.
(C) Prohibited Uses. Generally, if a proposed use is not listed as a permitted or conditional use in any given district, such proposed use is prohibited in that district. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Zoning Administrator may allow land uses (permitted or conditional) which, though not contained by name in a zoning district list of permitted or conditional uses, are deemed to be similar in nature and clearly compatible with the listed uses; however, such non-listed uses shall not be approved by the Zoning Administrator until the application for such use has been reviewed by the Zoning, Planning, and Appeals Commission and approved by the Village Board. In residential districts it is prohibited to raise animals, poultry or livestock except cats, dogs or birds as household pets; or conduct general farming practices, except for gardening.
(D) Yard Requirements.
(1) Yard requirements shall be as set forth under each zoning district. Front, side and rear yards shall be provided in accordance with the regulations hereinafter indicated and shall be unobstructed from the ground level to the sky.
(2) All accessory buildings which are attached to principal buildings (e.g., attached garages) shall comply with the yard requirements of the principal building.
(E)
All non listed uses which are tentatively approved by the Village Board shall be added to the appropriate use list by ordinance at the time of periodic updating and revision.
(F) There shall be only one principal use allowed per zoning lot.
(G) Except as expressly allowed as a principal permitted or conditional use, all indoor and outdoor storage, including off-street parking, must be accessory to a zoning lot’s principal use.
