The Municipality is hereby divided into districts under four general categories which shall be known as Open Area Districts, Residential Districts, Business Districts and Industrial Districts.
(a) S-1 Special Districts. S-1 Special Districts are areas which are large public or semipublic holdings for recreation and conservation purposes, areas suitable for noncommercial recreation and areas subject to periodic flooding.
(b) A-1 Agriculture Districts. A-1 Agriculture Districts contain land which is level or gently rolling and is best reserved for agriculture, forestry and other rural purposes.
(a) R-1 Suburban Residence Districts. R-1 Suburban Residence Districts are areas for very low density residential development which may or may not have community water and sewerage services.
(b) R-2 Density Residence Districts. R-2 Density Residence Districts are areas for relatively low density residential development which is served by group water and sewerage facilities.
(c) R-3 Moderate Density Residence Districts. R-3 Moderate Density Residence Districts are areas for residential development of moderate density, including multiple dwellings as well as one and two-family residences served by group water and sewerage facilities.
(a) B-1 Local Business Districts. B-1 Local Business Districts are areas for local or neighborhood business providing principally convenience goods and personal services.
(b) B-2 Highway and General Business Districts. B-2 Highway and General Business Districts are areas along major highways or thoroughfares which provide sales and services oriented to highway travelers, or general businesses, including sales and services for automobiles, farm machinery, building trades, etc.
(c) B-3 Central Business Districts. B-3 Central Business Districts are areas of the existing central business district which contain structurally sound and functional buildings plus contiguous areas which provide for the logical expansion of a unified and compact commercial core.
(a) M-1 Restricted Industrial Districts. M-1 Restricted Industrial Districts are areas for light industries with restricted manufacturing operations, research facilities and offices of a restricted nature which will have little or no detrimental effects on neighboring land uses.
(b) M-2 General Industrial Districts. M-2 General Industrial Districts are areas which, because of their access to transportation and community services, and relative isolation from other land uses, provide good sites for most types of general industry.
(a) The boundaries of the districts are shown upon a map which is designated as the Zoning District Map. The Zoning District Map and other information shown thereon, are hereby made a part of this Zoning Code by reference. The original Zoning District Map is properly attested and is on file with the Fiscal Officer.
(b) No amendment to this Zoning Code which involves matter portrayed on the Zoning District Map shall become effective until after such change and entry have been made on such Map. No changes of any nature shall be made on the Zoning District Map or matter shown thereon except in conformity with the procedures set forth in this Zoning Code.
(c) The Zoning District Map, which shall be located in the office of the Fiscal Officer, shall be the final authority as to the current zoning status of land and water areas, buildings and other structures.
The district boundary lines on the Zoning District Map are intended to follow either centerlines of thoroughfares or railroads, lot lines or lot number. In the case of unsubdivided property, the district boundary lines shall be determined by the use of the scale appearing on the Zoning District Map or by dimensions. Unless otherwise stated the boundaries shall be northside, southside, eastside or westside of street, alley or driveway.
