Establishment of Districts. For the purpose of this Title, the Village of Poplar Grove is hereby divided into districts as follows, with the purpose and intent of each district listed herein:

A-1, Agricultural/Rural District. This district is intended to permit development that is solely of a rural community character.

RE, Residential Estate District. This district is similar in purpose and description as the A-1 District; except, that it allows for low density single-family residential development as well as hobby farming (minimum lot size is ten acres).

R-1, Single-Family Residential 1 District. The purpose of this district is to allow for the development of single-family detached residences at low densities to preserve the suburban residential character of the area as new developments are constructed.

R-2, Single-Family Residential 2 District. The purpose of this district is to allow for the development of single-family detached residences at moderate densities to accommodate existing developments within the Village.

R-3, Single-Family Residential 3 District. The purpose of this district is to allow for the development of single-family detached residences at high densities to accommodate existing developments within the Village.

R-5, Mixed Residential District. This district is intended to permit residential development that has a higher density than other residential districts with two or more dwelling units per building.

MH, Mobile Home District. This district is intended for mobile home parks and mobile home subdivisions. This district shall be the only district where mobile homes are permitted.

NB, Neighborhood Business District. This district is intended to permit low intensity, high-quality, small-scale office, commercial and institutional development compatible with residential neighborhoods and located in areas within or directly adjacent to residential neighborhoods.

GB, General Business District. This district is intended to permit both small and large scale high quality commercial and institutional development that is compatible with the overall suburban character of the Village.

CB, Central Business District. This district is intended to provide a range of large and small scale commercial development as well as some institutional and higher residential uses in the downtown areas of the Village.

LI, Light Industrial District. This district is intended to permit high-quality industrial and office uses at intensities compatible to the suburban character of the Village.

HI, Heavy Industrial District. This district is intended to permit a wide variety of indoor and outdoor industrial land uses and other land uses not permitted in any other zoning district. This does not mean that all land uses are necessarily permitted in this district and specific performance standards must still be met.

B.

Zoning Map. The location and boundaries of the zoning districts are established by this Title and are set forth on the Zoning District Map of the Village of Poplar Grove and are incorporated herein and hereby and made a part of this Title. Said map(s), together with everything shown thereon and all amendments thereto, shall be as much a part of this Title as thought fully set forth and described herein.

C.

Interpretation of District Boundaries. Where uncertainty exists as to the boundaries of districts as shown on the official zoning map, the following rules shall apply:

1.

Boundaries indicated as approximately following the centerlines of streets, highways or alleys shall be construed to follow such centerlines.

2.

Boundaries indicated as approximately following platted lot lines shall be construed to follow such lot lines.

3.

Boundaries indicated as approximately following Village limits shall be construed as following Village limits.

4.

Boundaries indicated as following railroad lines shall be construed to be midway between the main tracks.

5.

Boundaries indicated as following shorelines, and in the event of change in the shoreline, shall be construed as moving with the actual shoreline; boundaries indicated as approximately following the centerlines of bodies of water shall be construed to follow such centerlines.

6.

Boundaries indicated as parallel to or extensions of features indicated in subsections C.1. through C.5. of this section shall be so construed. Distances not specifically indicated on the official zoning maps shall be determined by the scale of the map.

7.

Where uncertainty exists as to the exact location of a zoning district boundary line, as shown on the official zoning map, the location of the line shall be determined by the Zoning Administrator.

D.

Annexation. All territory which may be annexed to the Village shall be considered as being in the Agriculture/Rural District (A-1), until otherwise properly changed by ordinance.

E.

Flood Hazard Development Requirements. All properties within the floodplain as determined by the FEMA FIRM maps shall comply with all development requirements as stated in Chapter 12 of this title.

(Ord. 2012-012, 3-13-2012)

8-6-2. - AGRICULTURAL/RURAL DISTRICT (A-1).

A.

Description and Purpose. This district is intended to permit development that is solely of a rural character. The land use standards for this district permit very low density single-family residential development at one dwelling unit for every 40 gross acres, as well as a variety of agricultural related uses. Density and intensity standards ensure that development requiring a minimum of urban services does not occur until such services are available. The Agricultural/Rural District (A-1) shall either serve as a development/conservation designation (preserving and protecting agricultural activities such as hobby farming and rural residential areas) that will not be developed further or as a holding zone which allows

for interim land uses (agricultural and low density single-family residential uses compatible with farming). This district allows for a reasonable economic use of the land until urban services are available for further development according to the comprehensive master plan.

8-6-3. - RESIDENTIAL ESTATE DISTRICT (RE).

A.

Description and Purpose. This district is similar in purpose as the Agricultural/Rural District (A-1), except that it allows for low density single-family residential development, as well as hobby farming, but not a wide range of agricultural activities or livestock. Uses shall not produce any objectionable odors or noise to neighbors. Similar to the A-1 District, this district can function as either a development/conservation designation or as a holding district. As a development/conservation district, the ultimate build out of the land would be a maximum of one dwelling unit per ten acres. This allows for the potential to permanently protect areas of the Village for very low density residential development for those who want to live in a countryside environment. As a holding district, the maximum build out of these lands would be one dwelling unit per ten acres (unless urban services become available to allow the larger parcels to be rezoned then divided into smaller parcels if recommended in the comprehensive master plan).
