1.

I-1 Industrial District: The I-1 Industrial District is intended to provide for light industrial, manufacturing, processing, and assembly plants where the scale of operations is such that the resulting amount of dust, gas, smoke, odor, or noise will not be detrimental to property or to the health of people in surrounding residential or commercial districts.

2.

I-2 Industrial District: The I-2 Industrial District is intended to provide for the more intense types of industrial and manufacturing uses that generally exhibit higher levels of objectionable external effects. Uses permitted in this district may provide for basic industries needed to expand employment opportunities within the village. This district should not be located adjacent to residential districts, and its contiguity to commercial, recreational, and institutional areas should be avoided wherever possible.

3.

AG Agriculture District: The AG Agriculture District is intended to prevent scattered or sprawling development in areas that are presently used for agricultural purposes or that are predominantly vacant, and to ensure that large areas of vacant land can be preserved for future development according to economic and physical need.

(Ord. No. 2542, § 1, 9-12-2017)

Table 7-1 establishes area, height, and placement requirements for the I-1 Industrial, I-2 Industrial, and AG Agriculture Districts. These regulations apply to all uses within each district unless a different standard is listed for a specific use.

Table 7-1. Table of Area, Height, and Placement Regulations for I-1 Industrial, I-2 Industrial, and AG Agriculture Districts

Table 7-1 Notes:

1.

Minimum for a residential building.

2.

For nonresidential principal buildings, the height may be increased to 65 feet, provided that one corresponding foot of width or depth is added to each yard requirement for every foot of height in excess of 35 feet.

(Ord. No. 2542, § 1, 9-12-2017)

Chimneys, towers, elevator bulkheads, public monuments, stacks, tanks, spires, antennas, flagpoles, and necessary mechanical devices accessory to the principal use may be erected to a height of no more than 65 feet, if any such structure or facility is set back from the nearest property line by 50 percent of the structure's height.

(Ord. No. 2542, § 1, 9-12-2017)

1.

The following design standards apply to new construction, substantial repair or rehabilitation meant to remedy damage or deterioration of the exterior façade of an existing structure, and additions to an existing structure.

a.

Only those standards that relate to the specific repair, rehabilitation, or addition apply.

b.

These standards do not apply to interior remodeling or improvements.

c.

Buildings that are part of a planned unit development are exempt from the design standards of this section.

d.

No required building permit will be issued except upon submittal of a development plan, as may be required upon determination by the zoning administrator for PZC review and approval in conformance with the procedures set forth in Article 16: Building Permit Application Procedures.

2.

Entrance design and siting.

a.

It is strongly encouraged that all buildings have a public entrance from the sidewalk along the primary building frontage, and that public entrances be visually distinctive from the remaining portions of the façade along which they are located.

b.

It is strongly encouraged that a pedestrian link be provided between existing public right-of-way sidewalks and any adjacent commercial development to ensure safe pedestrian access between the development and adjacent commercial uses outside the development.

3.

Façade design.

a.

It is strongly encouraged that building facades in excess of 50 feet along public rights-of-way include a repeating pattern with at least two of the following elements: color change, texture change, material module change, or a wall articulation change of no less than two feet in depth, such as a reveal, pilaster, or projecting rib. It is strongly encouraged that such facade elements repeat at intervals of no more than 40 feet.

b.

It is strongly encouraged that, if used, bright or brilliant colors be used for accent only and be limited to 25 percent of the building façade.

4.

Roof design.

a.

It is strongly encouraged that rooflines of buildings that are over 100 linear feet in façade length be varied, with a variation in roof height occurring no more than every 50 linear feet of building frontage, with a minimum dimension of two feet for vertical variation.

b.

Green roof, blue roof, and white roof designs are encouraged.
