   (B)   (1)   The "minimum area" requirement is intended to prevent "spot zoning" and refers to the smallest total area of contiguous parcels that can properly be given the particular district classification.
      (2)   This requirement is not satisfied merely because the acreage of noncontiguous parcels, when aggregated, happen to equal or exceed the minimum area indicated above.
§ 151.026 ZONING MAP AND DISTRICT BOUNDARIES.
   (A)   The boundaries of the listed zoning districts are hereby established as shown on the official zoning map of the village.
   (B)   This map, including all notations and other information thereon, is hereby made a part of the Development Code by reference, and shall be kept on file in the Village Hall.
   (C)   In accordance with state law, if any changes are made in the zoning districts or regulations during a calendar year, the village staff shall publish the official zoning map of the village no later than March 31 of the following year.
§ 151.027 DETERMINING TERRITORY OF DISTRICTS WITH PRECISION.
   In determining what territory is actually included within any district on the zoning map, the following rules shall apply.
   (A)   Where a district boundary approximately follows any of the features listed below on the left, the corresponding feature on the right shall be deemed the district boundary:
 
Left
Right
Right-of-way of any roadway
The line
Lot line
The line
Railroad tracks
Right-of-way line
Stream
Center of stream
Section, fractional or survey line
The line
 
   (B)   Whenever any roadway is legally vacated, the district adjoining each side of the vacated roadway shall automatically extend to the center of the roadway and all territory included in the vacated roadway shall thereafter be subject to all regulations of the extended district.
   (C)   All territory (including bodies of water) that lies within the jurisdictional boundaries of the village, but which is not shown on the zoning map as being located within any district, shall comply with the zoning regulations of the Land Use and Major Streets Plan as a guide.
§ 151.028 ANNEXED TERRITORY.
   Whenever any territory is annexed to the village, it shall comply with the Land Use and Major Streets Plan as a guide; and after a public hearing, the Board of Trustees may zone newly-annexed territory as appropriate.
§ 151.029 GENERAL PROHIBITION.
   (A)   No lot or part thereof shall be used, occupied or developed except in conformity with the provisions of the Development Code. Likewise, no structure or part thereof shall be erected, used, occupied, enlarged, altered, relocated or reconstructed except in conformity with the provisions of this Code.
   (B)   Suits pending or rights existing immediately prior to the effective date of this Code shall not be affected nor impaired except for those rights relating to nonconformities which are dealt with elsewhere in this Code. Zoning or other related development issues that are a part of an annexation agreement made prior to the adoption or revision of the Development Code shall be grandfathered. Grandfathering of Development Code requirements is also permitted on property platted prior to the adoption of this chapter with permission of the Village Board.
§ 151.030 UNLISTED USES PROHIBITED.
   (A)   Whenever any use is not specifically listed as a permitted or special use within a particular district, the use shall be deemed prohibited in that district.
   (B)   However, if the President and the Board of Trustees, following consultation with the Planning Commission, find that the unlisted use is similar to and compatible with the listed uses, they may allow the use by a zoning amendment.
   (C)   The decision shall become a permanent public record and any unlisted use that is approved shall thereafter have the same status as listed uses. (See also § 151.029.)
§ 151.031 SPECIAL EVENTS.
   (A)   No land shall be used for any temporary enterprise, whether for profit or not, and no temporary structure shall be used or occupied for any purpose, unless a special events permit has been obtained.
   (B)   No special event permit shall be valid for more than.
