In order to carry out the purposes and provisions of this title, the village is hereby divided into the following zoning districts:

 

(Ord. G-60, 3-22-1966; Ord. G-203, 12-14-1976; Ord. G-233, 5-31-1978; Ord. G-575, 9-24-1996; Ord. G-619, 9-22-1998; Ord. G-903, 11-10-2009)

The zoning districts and their boundaries are as shown upon the zoning district map dated March 22, 1966, which map and all amendments thereto and all notations, references and other information shown thereon are hereby incorporated into and made a part of this title, with the same force and effect as if fully set forth in this title. The original zoning district map, properly attested, shall be filed with the village clerk. (Ord. G-60, 3-22-1966)

Where uncertainty exists with respect to the boundaries of the various zoning districts as shown on the zoning district map, the following rules apply:

   A.   A zoning district boundary line following a street, state highway or tollway or extension thereof shall be construed to be the centerline of such street, state highway or tollway or extension.

   B.   A zoning district boundary line approximately following a lot line or extension thereof within a subdivision shall be construed as following such lot line or extension.

   C.   Where a zoning district boundary line divides a lot in single ownership, the regulations of this title for either portion of such lot may, at the owner's discretion, apply to the entire area of the lot or twenty five feet (25') beyond the zoning district boundary line, whichever is the lesser distance.

   D.   Questions concerning the exact locations of district boundary lines shall be resolved by the village board of trustees. (Ord. G-60, 3-22-1966; Ord. G-99, 1-28-1969; Ord. G-391, 10-28-1986)

Any additions to the incorporated area of the village resulting from disconnection by the county or otherwise shall be automatically classified as in the R1 single-family residence district unless otherwise classified by amendment to this title. (Ord. G-60, 3-22-1966)
