The Village of Rochester Board of Trustees adopting this chapter find that urbanization is taking place in certain areas of the Village at a rapid pace, that scattered urbanization can greatly increase the public cost of installing public facilities, such as sewers and schools required to service such growth, and therefore that the public interest will be best served by channeling such development to suitable Village area only at such time as it is economically feasible to plan, budget, and commit to construction of the necessary supporting public services and facilities. Consequently, some areas of potential growth within the Village will be placed in the A-3 General Farming District – Holding District, where non-agricultural development be deferred until the Village Board determines that it is economically feasible to provide public services and facilities for uses other than those permitted in the Holding District. It is intended that the status of the Holding District will be reviewed by the Village Plan Commission no less frequently than every five years in order to determine whether in light of the foregoing general standards, there should be a transfer of all or part of a Holding District to some other use district. Any such review will consider the need for permitting other uses on such land, the nature of the use or uses to be permitted and the cost and availability of the public services and facilities which will be necessitated by such new use or uses.
A. Uses. Uses in the A-3 General Farming District – Holding District are allowed and/or limited as set forth below and in the referenced sections of this Municipal Code.
