(A) The Village Board may from time to time amend, supplement or change by ordinance the boundaries of districts or regulations herein established. Any amendment, supplement or change shall first be submitted to the Zoning Board for its recommendation and report.
(B) No such ordinance shall be adopted until after a duly advertised public hearing is held by the Zoning Board, as prescribed by statute. Within a reasonable time after the hearing, the Zoning Board shall make a report to the Village Board.
(C) The Village Board shall not be required to take action for the conduct of a hearing on a petition by property owners to amend, supplement or change the boundaries of districts or regulations herein established or to reclassify any property, but whenever the owners of 50% or more of the street frontage in any block shall present to the Village Board a petition duly signed and acknowledged requesting an amendment, supplement, change, modification or repeal of the regulations prescribed for the zoning maps, including the district or specified part thereof, it shall be the duty of the Village Board to refer the petition to the Zoning Board, to hold a hearing thereon as provided by statute.
(D) (1) Before any action shall be taken as provided in this subchapter, the party or parties petitioning for a change shall deposit with the Village Treasurer the zoning district amendment fee.
(2) Under no condition shall the sum, or any part thereof, be refunded for failure of the amendment to be enacted into law. The amount of said fee is established by resolution of the Village Board and shall cover the cost of the amendment procedure.
(E) After any application for rezoning of any parcel or tract of land within the village has been denied by the Zoning Board and/or the Village Board, no new application or petition for a rezoning of the same parcel or tract, seeking the same use as that denied in the previous application, shall be considered within 18 months after the denial unless the new application or petition clearly indicates a change in circumstance, condition or ownership.
