The following regulations shall apply in all Advanced Living Multiple Residence Districts, sometimes called "Residence AL Districts."

The advancement of age, with its physical restrictions, the fact of limited or fixed income and the conditions of rising costs for acquiring, keeping and maintaining a single-family dwelling have all caused serious housing problems for certain of the Village's senior citizens. Present economic conditions, the lack of moderately priced housing and the high proportion of senior citizens in the Village's population are serious problems that will intensify if proper housing is not provided. The Village Board therefore recommends that a limited amount of moderately priced apartments be permitted.

In Advanced Living Multiple Residence Districts, no building or premises shall be used, and no building shall hereafter be erected, except for use as a multiple residence designed primarily to provide living and dining accommodations for persons over the age of 62. At least one occupant of each dwelling unit must meet this minimum age requirement, and no occupants may be less than 19 years of age.
