The Extraterritorial Zoning District is that area lying outside the City but within 1 1/2 miles of the City limits, as shown on the map entitled "City of Reedsburg Official Extraterritorial Zoning Map," dated December 8, 2003; the purpose of the Extraterritorial District is to provide for proper zoning and control over said area and allow for the orderly growth and expansion of the City.

In the Extraterritorial District, no building or premises shall be used and no building shall hereafter be erected or structurally altered unless otherwise provided in this chapter, except for one of more of the following uses:

In the Extraterritorial District, the minimum area and width of lots shall be as follows:

Building permits for all construction in the Extraterritorial District will be issued by the respective building inspector of the township in which the project being permitted will take place. The City Zoning Administrator shall approve a permit as to zoning prior to the issuance of the building permit by the Township Building Inspector with the exception of nonhabitable agricultural buildings that the respective town Zoning Administrator shall approve. Two copies of the permit application shall be submitted to the City Zoning Administrator. One copy shall be signed as approved or not approved, as the case may be, by the City Zoning Administrator and returned to the applicable Town Clerk or Assessor. The City shall retain one copy for its files. Permits shall only be issued by the Township Building Inspector if the project is in compliance with this chapter. The City shall collect the park fee for residential housing units in accordance with Chapter 332, Impact Fees, of the Code of the City of Reedsburg.

Enforcement of the extraterritorial zoning district shall be by the City Zoning Administrator, the same as provided for zoning enforcement within the City with penalties or violations also the same.

The conditional use provision and variance provisions in Article VI of this chapter shall apply to the Extraterritorial District, provided that the Joint Extraterritorial Board of Appeals will be referred all applications for a variance (as opposed to the City Zoning Board of Appeals) and the Joint Territorial Commission will be referred all applications for a conditional use permit (as opposed to the City Plan Commission).

The Council may amend the districts and regulations after first submitting the proposed amendment to the Joint Extraterritorial Committee for its recommendation and report.

The nonconforming uses provision in Article VIII of this chapter of the Code of the City of Reedsburg shall apply to the extraterritorial zoning area. Any changes in nonconforming uses shall be subject to the nonconforming uses provision in Article VIII of this chapter, which shall apply to the extraterritorial zoning area, provided said matter shall be referred to the Joint Extraterritorial Committee instead of the City Plan Commission.

The provisions relating to the Zoning Board of Appeals in § 690-12 of Article III of this chapter of the Code of the City of Reedsburg shall apply to the extraterritorial zoning area, except that the Joint Extraterritorial Board of Appeals shall have the power and duty to enact the provisions of § 690-12.

All territory annexed to the City from the extraterritorial zoning area shall become a part of the City but shall continue to have the same zoning as it had in the extraterritorial zoning area unless alternative zoning is required by the Plan Commission and approved by the Council to conform to the Comprehensive Plan.
