- DISTRICTS AND DISTRICT REGULATIONS
(a)
Purpose of establishing zoning districts. The area located within the jurisdiction of the village is hereby divided into zoning districts of such number and community character as are necessary to achieve compatibility of land uses within each district and to achieve the other purposes of the village. Within the village, the use of any land, air or water; the size, shape and placement of lots including the provision of open spaces within lots, and the use, size, height, location and type of structure thereon shall be in compliance with the regulations established in this chapter and made applicable to the district or districts in which such land or structure is located.
(b)
The zoning map. The location and boundaries of zoning districts are established as shown on the map entitled "Official Zoning Map, Village of Clinton, Wisconsin" dated as amended, which accompanies and is made a part of this chapter. All notations and references shown on the zoning map are as much a part of this chapter as though specifically described herein.
(c)
District boundaries. The following rules shall apply with respect to the zoning district boundaries shown on the zoning map:
(1)
Zoning district lines that follow watercourses, streets, alleys or extensions thereof shall be construed to follow the centerline of said watercourse, street, alley or extension thereof unless clearly shown otherwise. Where natural changes in the location of watercourses occur, the zoning boundary shall be construed as moving with the watercourse centerline.
(2)
Zoning district boundaries shown as following or approximately following the village corporate limit lines shall be construed as following such line.
(3)
Where a zoning district line coincides approximately with a property line that was established before the effective date of incorporation of said zoning district line on the zoning map, the zoning district boundary shall be construed to be the property line at that particular location.
(4)
Where any uncertainty exists as to the exact location of the zoning district line, the board of zoning appeals upon written application shall determine the location of such boundary line.
(d)
Specific base zoning districts established. Zoning districts and district names existing before the effective date of this chapter are hereby discontinued and the following zoning districts and district names are hereby established:
(Ord. of 4-3-2006, § 17.301)
(a)
Erection of more than one principal structure on a lot. Except in the case of a planned unit development or a group development, not more than one principal detached residential building shall be located on a lot, nor shall a principal detached residential building be located on the same zoning lot with any other principal building. When more than one principal structure is allowed on a lot it shall require a conditional use permit.
(b)
Structures to have access. Every residential building hereafter erected or moved shall be on a lot adjacent to a public street and all structures shall be so located on lots so as to provide safe and convenient access for servicing, fire protection and required off-street parking.
(c)
Permitted uses. Land uses listed as permitted are permitted by right per the general land use requirements of this chapter, per the general requirements of the specific zoning district in which they are located, per any additional requirements imposed by applicable overlay zoning districts as designated on the official zoning map, per the general requirements of this chapter, including site plan review requirements, and per any and all other applicable city, county, state, and federal regulations.
(d)
Accessory uses. No accessory structures shall be built, nor accessory uses commenced, without construction, existence or operation of the principal structure or use. Accessory structures and uses shall be situated in the rear yard area or in the interior side yard area, and shall not have a setback from the front lot line that is less than the front setback of the principal structure or use. The height of an accessory structure shall not exceed the height of the principal structure, except where specifically provided for a particular accessory structure.
(1)
An accessory building or structure shall be considered an integral part of the principal building if it is located less than eight feet from the principal building, and shall then have the same minimum setback requirements as the principal structure.
(2)
The cumulative area of all detached structures shall not exceed 30 percent of the rear yard area. For residential districts, the cumulative area of all detached structures shall not exceed 1,000 square feet or 30 percent of the rear yard area, whichever is less.
(3)
A detached garage/noncommercial workshop is permitted in all districts as an accessory structure provided it is a minimum size of 20 feet by 20 feet and is not used to store more than three vehicles per dwelling unit.
(e)
Conditional uses. Land uses listed as conditional are subject to all of the requirements applicable to permitted uses, plus any additional requirements applicable to that particular land use as contained in division 2 of article IX of this chapter, including any additional requirements imposed as part of the conditional use review process. Conditional uses are allowed only if reviewed and approved in accordance with the conditional use procedures and all other applicable regulations of this chapter. Conditional uses refer to land uses that, because of their unique characteristics, cannot be properly classified in any particular district or districts without consideration, in each individual case, of the impact of those conditional uses upon neighboring land and of the suitability of that particular use at that particular location. Each application for, and instance of, a conditional use shall be considered a unique situation and shall not be construed as a precedent for similar requests.
(f)
Unclassified or unspecified uses. An unclassified or unspecified land use is generally excluded from the respective zoning district. The zoning administrator shall have the authority to make a similar use interpretation based upon the use category descriptions of this section if an application is submitted for a use not specifically listed. If the zoning administrator determines that the proposed use does not fit into any of the use category descriptions of this section, no similar use interpretation shall be made and an applicant may apply for a zoning amendment under division 6 of article II of this chapter.
(g)
Temporary uses. Land uses permitted as temporary use are permitted subject to all the requirements applicable to uses permitted by right, plus any additional requirements applicable to that particular land use specified in division 2 of article IX and article VIII of this chapter. Land uses permitted as temporary uses are subject to rules outlined in division 5 of article II of this chapter.
(h)
Performance standards. Performance standards listed in this chapter shall apply to uses or conditions as specified.
(i)
Soil restrictions. Certain soil types in the village as shown on the operational soil survey maps prepared by the U.S. Department of Agriculture, Natural Resources Conservation Service, have severe or very severe limitations for on-site soil absorption sewage disposal facilities because of one or more of the following reasons: high or fluctuating water table, flooding, groundwater contamination, silting, slow permeability, steep slopes or proximity to bedrock. The county standard soils survey prepared by the U.S. Natural Resources Conservation Service is adopted by reference as a determining factor in land use decisions. When a question arises as to the accuracy of a soil mapping unit, an intensive soil survey of the site in question shall be requested from the county sanitarian and/or a soil scientist from the soil conservation service by either the village or the applicant.
(j)
Commercial or industrial indoor uses. All activities in commercial or industrial zoning districts, other than loading and unloading, shall be completely enclosed within one or more buildings.
(Ord. of 4-3-2006, § 17.302)
(a)
The following words, terms, and phrases, when used in this section, shall have the meanings ascribed to them in this subsection, unless the context clearly indicates a different meaning:
Density means the number of dwelling units for each acre of land. Density is calculated by dividing the number of dwelling units on a lot by the area in acres of the lot on which the dwelling units are located. If the maximum density standard conflicts with the minimum lot area standard, the more restrictive standard shall control. The maximum density for a district shall not guarantee that such density may be obtained, nor justify reducing of other standards.
Height the vertical distance from the average elevation of the adjoining ground level or the established grade of the lot, whichever is lower to the top of the cornice of a flat roof, to the deck line of a mansard roof, to a point of the roof directly above the highest wall of a shed roof, to the uppermost point on a round or other arch type roof, to the mean distance of the highest gable on a pitched or hip roof. The term "height," as defined in this section, also applies to structures.
Lot area means lot area refers to the total square footage of land bounded by lot lines. No building shall be converted to, conflict with (or further conflict with) the lot area requirements of this chapter. No building permit may be issued for a lot that does not meet the minimum area requirements of this chapter unless otherwise expressly stated in this chapter.
Lot width means the horizontal distance between side lot lines, measured at the required front setback line.
Setback means the minimum distance by which any building or structure must be separated from a street right-of-way or lot line.

(Ord. of 4-3-2006, § 17.303)
(a)
This district is intended to permit development that is of a rural community character. The land use standards for this district permit are very low-density single-family residential development, as well as a variety of rural land uses. Density and intensity standards ensure that development that requires even a minimum of urban services does not occur until such services are available. As such, the rural holding district (RH) shall either serve as a development/conservation designation which preserves and protects rural activities, hobby farming and rural residential areas that realistically will not be developed further into a more urban setting, or as a holding zone which allows for interim land uses, agriculture and low-density single-family residential uses compatible with farming, while also providing a reasonable nonfarm economic use of the land until urban services are available. Rezoning of land within the rural holding (RH) district for higher-density uses that are urban or suburban in character would not be anticipated unless facilities and services of sufficient capacity to support planned development are available concurrent with such development.
(b)
This district provides for the protection of rural activities and for a very low-density residential area for those who want to live in a rural environment and who retain enough land with the residence to ensure that the rural environment is maintained as long as the RH district is retained.

(Ord. of 4-3-2006, § 17.407)
(a)
Purpose. The visual attractiveness and historical heritage of village's central commercial district are contributing factors to the downtown's overall economic vitality. To promote visual appeal, including historic architectural compatibility, the following standards shall apply to new construction and to building rehabilitations and modifications in the central commercial district.
(b)
Design review. The plan commission shall review new construction and exterior building modifications within the C-1 central commercial district following the site plan review process set forth in article IV of this chapter.
(c)
Standards.
(1)
Architectural compatibility. No single architectural style need be adhered to. However, buildings of historic merit should be well maintained and rehabilitated and all new buildings should be compatible with the best existing examples of architectural style in their immediate vicinity. Compatibility includes style, bulk, materials, color, orientation, landscaping and signage.
(2)
Building height. In no instance shall buildings be more than one story taller or shorter than the height of a building of similar use on one of the immediately adjoining properties or on the nearest developed parcel along the same street frontage, whichever applies.
(3)
Building mass. Building mass shall be compatible with existing buildings in the immediate area. The characteristic proportion (relationship between facade, height and width) of the general historic architectural theme shall be maintained. Building mass for large structures shall be disguised through the use of facade articulations, or through the use of exterior treatments that give the impression of directly adjoining individual buildings.
(4)
Compatible design of exterior building elements. Exterior building elements, such as doors and windows, piers and columns, sills, headers, cornices, and sign bands, shall be compatible in structural patterns, design, and elevation with existing buildings in the immediate area which conform to the general historic heritage of the downtown.
(5)
Roof forms. Flat or gently sloping roofs that are not visible from the street shall be used. Mansards or other exotic roof shapes not characteristic of the general historic heritage of the downtown, as determined by the plan commission, shall not be used. Throughout the downtown, roof shapes not characteristic of the general design theme of the downtown shall not be used.
(6)
Signage. Signage should be designed to be consistent with architectural design, theme and character of the building to which it is affixed and, insofar as reasonably practicable, to the adjacent buildings within the district.

The light industrial (I-1) district is intended to permit high quality industrial and office uses more compatible with a suburban village character than with a general or heavy industrial environment. This is accomplished in part through relatively low maximum buildable site area. The primary difference between this and other industrial districts is that the typical industrial activities occurring in this district will be indoors and not produce high levels of noise, exhaust, odors and other nuisances typically associated with more intense industrial activities.

The moderate industrial (I-2) district is intended to permit industrial and office uses at an intensity greater than that of the light industrial district but less than that of the heavy industrial district. The primary difference between this and other industrial districts is that the typical uses within this district will be indoors or outdoors, but not produce high levels of noise, exhaust, odors and other nuisances typically associated with more intense industrial activities. Also, incentives may be provided to encourage infill industrial development and redevelopment by allowing for a higher maximum buildable site area. Also, I-2 areas of the village often have some infrastructure in place which may allow for lower development costs compared to "green field" development. This is intended to promote the economic viability of older industrial areas of the village.

(Ord. of 4-3-2006, § 17.301)
(a)
Erection of more than one principal structure on a lot. Except in the case of a planned unit development or a group development, not more than one principal detached residential building shall be located on a lot, nor shall a principal detached residential building be located on the same zoning lot with any other principal building. When more than one principal structure is allowed on a lot it shall require a conditional use permit.
(b)
Structures to have access. Every residential building hereafter erected or moved shall be on a lot adjacent to a public street and all structures shall be so located on lots so as to provide safe and convenient access for servicing, fire protection and required off-street parking.
(c)
Permitted uses. Land uses listed as permitted are permitted by right per the general land use requirements of this chapter, per the general requirements of the specific zoning district in which they are located, per any additional requirements imposed by applicable overlay zoning districts as designated on the official zoning map, per the general requirements of this chapter, including site plan review requirements, and per any and all other applicable city, county, state, and federal regulations.
(d)
Accessory uses. No accessory structures shall be built, nor accessory uses commenced, without construction, existence or operation of the principal structure or use. Accessory structures and uses shall be situated in the rear yard area or in the interior side yard area, and shall not have a setback from the front lot line that is less than the front setback of the principal structure or use. The height of an accessory structure shall not exceed the height of the principal structure, except where specifically provided for a particular accessory structure.
(1)
An accessory building or structure shall be considered an integral part of the principal building if it is located less than eight feet from the principal building, and shall then have the same minimum setback requirements as the principal structure.
(2)
The cumulative area of all detached structures shall not exceed 30 percent of the rear yard area. For residential districts, the cumulative area of all detached structures shall not exceed 1,000 square feet or 30 percent of the rear yard area, whichever is less.

(e)
Conditional uses. Land uses listed as conditional are subject to all of the requirements applicable to permitted uses, plus any additional requirements applicable to that particular land use as contained in division 2 of article IX of this chapter, including any additional requirements imposed as part of the conditional use review process. Conditional uses are allowed only if reviewed and approved in accordance with the conditional use procedures and all other applicable regulations of this chapter. Conditional uses refer to land uses that, because of their unique characteristics, cannot be properly classified in any particular district or districts without consideration, in each individual case, of the impact of those conditional uses upon neighboring land and of the suitability of that particular use at that particular location. Each application for, and instance of, a conditional use shall be considered a unique situation and shall not be construed as a precedent for similar requests.
(f)
Unclassified or unspecified uses. An unclassified or unspecified land use is generally excluded from the respective zoning district. The zoning administrator shall have the authority to make a similar use interpretation based upon the use category descriptions of this section if an application is submitted for a use not specifically listed. If the zoning administrator determines that the proposed use does not fit into any of the use category descriptions of this section, no similar use interpretation shall be made and an applicant may apply for a zoning amendment under division 6 of article II of this chapter.
(g)
Temporary uses. Land uses permitted as temporary use are permitted subject to all the requirements applicable to uses permitted by right, plus any additional requirements applicable to that particular land use specified in division 2 of article IX and article VIII of this chapter.

(i)
Soil restrictions. Certain soil types in the village as shown on the operational soil survey maps prepared by the U.S. Department of Agriculture, Natural Resources Conservation Service, have severe or very severe limitations for on-site soil absorption sewage disposal facilities because of one or more of the following reasons: high or fluctuating water table, flooding, groundwater contamination, silting, slow permeability, steep slopes or proximity to bedrock. The county standard soils survey prepared by the U.S. Natural Resources Conservation Service is adopted by reference as a determining factor in land use decisions. When a question arises as to the accuracy of a soil mapping unit, an intensive soil survey of the site in question shall be requested from the county sanitarian and/or a soil scientist from the soil conservation service by either the village or the applicant.
(j)
Commercial or industrial indoor uses. All activities in commercial or industrial zoning districts, other than loading and unloading, shall be completely enclosed within one or more buildings.
(Ord. of 4-3-2006, § 17.302)
(a)
The following words, terms, and phrases, when used in this section, shall have the meanings ascribed to them in this subsection, unless the context clearly indicates a different meaning:
Density means the number of dwelling units for each acre of land. Density is calculated by dividing the number of dwelling units on a lot by the area in acres of the lot on which the dwelling units are located. If the maximum density standard conflicts with the minimum lot area standard, the more restrictive standard shall control. The maximum density for a district shall not guarantee that such density may be obtained, nor justify reducing of other standards.
Height the vertical distance from the average elevation of the adjoining ground level or the established grade of the lot, whichever is lower to the top of the cornice of a flat roof, to the deck line of a mansard roof, to a point of the roof directly above the highest wall of a shed roof, to the uppermost point on a round or other arch type roof, to the mean distance of the highest gable on a pitched or hip roof. The term "height," as defined in this section, also applies to structures.
Lot area means lot area refers to the total square footage of land bounded by lot lines. No building shall be converted to, conflict with (or further conflict with) the lot area requirements of this chapter. No building permit may be issued for a lot that does not meet the minimum area requirements of this chapter unless otherwise expressly stated in this chapter.
Lot width means the horizontal distance between side lot lines, measured at the required front setback line.
Setback means the minimum distance by which any building or structure must be separated from a street right-of-way or lot line.

(Ord. of 4-3-2006, § 17.303)
(a)
This district is intended to permit development that is of a rural community character. The land use standards for this district permit are very low-density single-family residential development, as well as a variety of rural land uses. Density and intensity standards ensure that development that requires even a minimum of urban services does not occur until such services are available. As such, the rural holding district (RH) shall either serve as a development/conservation designation which preserves and protects rural activities, hobby farming and rural residential areas that realistically will not be developed further into a more urban setting, or as a holding zone which allows for interim land uses, agriculture and low-density single-family residential uses compatible with farming, while also providing a reasonable nonfarm economic use of the land until urban services are available. Rezoning of land within the rural holding (RH) district for higher-density uses that are urban or suburban in character would not be anticipated unless facilities and services of sufficient capacity to support planned development are available concurrent with such development.
(b)
This district provides for the protection of rural activities and for a very low-density residential area for those who want to live in a rural environment and who retain enough land with the residence to ensure that the rural environment is maintained as long as the RH district is retained.

(Ord. of 4-3-2006, § 17.407)
(a)
Purpose. The visual attractiveness and historical heritage of village's central commercial district are contributing factors to the downtown's overall economic vitality. To promote visual appeal, including historic architectural compatibility, the following standards shall apply to new construction and to building rehabilitations and modifications in the central commercial district.
(b)
Design review. The plan commission shall review new construction and exterior building modifications within the C-1 central commercial district following the site plan review process set forth in article IV of this chapter.
(c)
Standards.
(1)
Architectural compatibility. No single architectural style need be adhered to. However, buildings of historic merit should be well maintained and rehabilitated and all new buildings should be compatible with the best existing examples of architectural style in their immediate vicinity. Compatibility includes style, bulk, materials, color, orientation, landscaping and signage.
(2)
Building height. In no instance shall buildings be more than one story taller or shorter than the height of a building of similar use on one of the immediately adjoining properties or on the nearest developed parcel along the same street frontage, whichever applies.
(3)
Building mass. Building mass shall be compatible with existing buildings in the immediate area. The characteristic proportion (relationship between facade, height and width) of the general historic architectural theme shall be maintained. Building mass for large structures shall be disguised through the use of facade articulations, or through the use of exterior treatments that give the impression of directly adjoining individual buildings.
(4)
Compatible design of exterior building elements. Exterior building elements, such as doors and windows, piers and columns, sills, headers, cornices, and sign bands, shall be compatible in structural patterns, design, and elevation with existing buildings in the immediate area which conform to the general historic heritage of the downtown.
(5)
Roof forms. Flat or gently sloping roofs that are not visible from the street shall be used. Mansards or other exotic roof shapes not characteristic of the general historic heritage of the downtown, as determined by the plan commission, shall not be used. Throughout the downtown, roof shapes not characteristic of the general design theme of the downtown shall not be used.
(6)
Signage. Signage should be designed to be consistent with architectural design, theme and character of the building to which it is affixed and, insofar as reasonably practicable, to the adjacent buildings within the district.

The light industrial (I-1) district is intended to permit high quality industrial and office uses more compatible with a suburban village character than with a general or heavy industrial environment. This is accomplished in part through relatively low maximum buildable site area.

The moderate industrial (I-2) district is intended to permit industrial and office uses at an intensity greater than that of the light industrial district but less than that of the heavy industrial district. The primary difference between this and other industrial districts is that the typical uses within this district will be indoors or outdoors, but not produce high levels of noise, exhaust, odors and other nuisances typically associated with more intense industrial activities. Also, incentives may be provided to encourage infill industrial development and redevelopment by allowing for a higher maximum buildable site area. Also, I-2 areas of the village often have some infrastructure in place which may allow for lower development costs compared to "green field" development. This is intended to promote the economic viability of older industrial areas of the village.
