§ 22-5 A Agriculture District.

A. 
Statement of intent. This district provides either a holding function or conservation function. The intent of the district is to maintain lands for agricultural use as long as they are not needed for urban development purposes and to prevent urban sprawl.
(1) 
As a holding district. This district permits continued agricultural uses as well as new residential development at a low density, which low density is intended to be compatible with farming used while also providing a reasonable nonfarm income economic use of the land, until more intensive urban development takes place. The low density also precludes an overly high level of interim economic investment, which could otherwise discourage permanent urban uses.
(2) 
As a development/conservation district. This district functions to preserve the agriculture, hobby farming, and rural residential parts of the Village, for which there is no realistic urban development potential.
(3) 
Permitted uses consist of limited agricultural activities, principally the growing of crops, rather than a broadly diverse range of activities such as the raising of animals which could be incompatible with urban uses.
B. 
Permitted uses by right:
(1) 
Agriculture, including field crops, forestry, orchards and wild crop harvesting, wildlife management, truck farming, horticulture and animal husbandry, subject to the provisions of Article XII of this chapter.
(2) 
Single-family dwelling.
(3) 
Public utility transmission and distribution lines, poles, or pipes, and related accessories.
C. 
Permitted accessory uses:
(1) 
Uses, buildings and structures normally accessory and incident to the permitted uses.
(2) 
Quarters for year-round household or farm employees, provided that such quarters shall be occupied only by individuals employed full-time on the premises and their families.
(3) 
Home occupations and residential businesses as regulated in Article IV of this chapter.
(4) 
Agricultural signs as regulated in Article VIII.
(5) 
Residential signs as regulated in Article VIII.
(6) 
One roadside produce sale stand per farm, for the sale principally of products produced by that farm and subject to the following:
(a) 
Off-street parking for a minimum of four vehicles shall be provided.
(b) 
Stand setback of 30 feet from the existing road right-of-way line and 20 feet from any other lot line shall be provided.
(c) 
Located where the stand would not require vehicles to back onto any public roadway and not be creating any other traffic hazard, and where the permitted driveway shall be so designed and located as to minimize interference with normal highway traffic flow.
D. 
Uses permitted by conditional grant:
(1) 
Airports, airstrips and landing fields.
(2) 
Commercial dog kennels; veterinary clinics.
(3) 
Cemeteries.
(4) 
Churches/temples/synagogues/monasteries and religious retreat facilities.
(5) 
Educational facilities, whether public or private, boarding or nonboarding, including day, preschool, elementary, secondary and postsecondary.
(6) 
Private recreational facilities, including but not limited to golf courses, athletic fields, golf driving ranges, and boarding and riding stables for horses.
(7) 
Other governmental facilities, including but not limited to community centers, fire stations, police stations, libraries, public emergency shelters, incinerators, sewage disposal plant, lift stations, waterworks, water storage facilities, water pumps, wells and any associated infrastructure.
(8) 
Seasonal farm labor housing, provided that county or state sanitary regulations can be met.
(9) 
Conversion of existing farmhouses to two-family residences.
(10) 
Communications broadcasting and relay towers.
(11)

§ 22-8 Residential districts.

A. 
Statement of intent.
(1) 
Eight zoning districts are provided for residential development, as follows:
(a) 
R-1A Single-Family Residential District. This district is intended to provide for quiet, pleasant living areas for estate-type residential development typically near the fringe of the Village with the greatest amount of open space around each home site.
(b) 
R-1B Single-Family Residential District. This district is intended to provide for quiet, pleasant living areas for suburban-type residential development typically in intermediate areas of the Village with substantial amounts of open space around each home site.
(c) 
R-1 Single-Family Residential District. This district is intended to provide for urban-type residential development generally, although not exclusively, in the central sections of the Village with a moderate amount of open space around each home site.
(d) 
R-2 Single- and Two-Family Residential District. This district is intended to provide a suitable environment for single- and two-family development.
(e) 
R-3 Multiple-Family Residential District. This district is intended to provide for multiple-family dwellings constructed at the lowest end of the urban multiple-family development intensity range, where the design emphasis is on lower mass of the structure which is compatible with single- and two-family residences, which may be in close proximity to this district.
(f) 
R-4 Multiple-Family Residential District. This district is intended to provide for multiple-family dwellings constructed to the lower to moderate end of the urban multiple-family development intensity range, where the design involves a lower to moderate mass of structure, which makes for development somewhat less compatible with single- and two-family residences. This district is generally located adjacent to arterial and collector streets, within easy walking distance of convenience shopping facilities.
(g) 
IR-2 Recreation Industry/Residential District. This district is intended to provide areas for the commercial and public recreation industry together with residential uses and other activities and uses typically associated with the same. It is also the purpose of the district to preserve, enhance or develop, as appropriate, natural and scenic resources where these may exist or may be created and where such resources may be compatibly integrated with other types of uses in order to improve the quality of life of Village residents.
(h) 
R-6 Manufactured Home District. This district is intended to accommodate manufactured housing in parks and subdivisions.[1]
[1]
Editor's Note: Amended at time of adoption of Code (see Ch. 25, Construction and Effect of Ordinances, Art. II).
(2) 
Only service uses that are compatible with the residential character of the zoning districts are allowed in addition to permitted residential uses. Taken together, the districts provide a reasonable range of opportunity for the development and preservation of the housing types required to serve the various segments of the Village's population.
B. 
Permitted uses by right. The following uses, and no others, are permitted by right in the residential districts, as indicated in the following table ("x" indicates use is permitted):

Zero-lot-line duplexes.
[Added 1-27-2003]
(1) 
Zero-lot-line duplexes can be implemented within the Village of Sherwood. All certified survey maps and subdivision plats creating zero-lot-line duplexes and any deeds conveying either unit of such duplex shall have a restriction requiring the exterior of the building to be maintained, decorated, and repaired so as to retain a uniform appearance of both units. Further, the following restriction shall be placed upon the same: "When attached dwelling units are created, matters of mutual concern to the adjacent property owners, due to construction, catastrophe, and maintenance, shall be guarded against by private covenant and deed restriction, and no approving authority shall be held responsible for the enforcement of same."
(2) 
Separate sewer, water and other utility services must be created for each unit of a zero-lot-line duplex.
(3) 
Each property owner is responsible for coordinating property maintenance responsibilities with the adjoining zero-lot-line unit.
(4) 
The lot must have been previously planned for a duplex or two-family dwelling.
(5) 
No accessory structures will be permitted for any zero-lot-line duplex.
(6) 
The sum of the lot areas must meet the minimum frontage and area requirements for a two-family home in that district. The side yard setback may be zero on one side, provided that:
(a) 
The adjoining side yard setback of the lot adjacent to the zero side yard is also zero; and
(b) 
The opposite side yard is not less than eight feet.
(7) 
Zero-lot-line duplexes shall share a common wall, and both units shall be built simultaneously. Wherever improvements abut on the common boundary line between adjoining units, there shall be a one-hour fire wall running from the lowest floor level, including the basement if it is the common wall, to the underside of the roof sheathing. Such basement wall, if any, shall be waterproofed masonry.
(8) 
Only one side or wall of a zero-lot-line duplex may be shared. All others must be within the buildable area of the lot as established by using the standard side, rear, and front yard setbacks for the district in which the twin home is to be permitted.
(9) 
If not previously arranged for on the recorded plat, all land divisions converting duplexes to zero-lot-line duplexes must occur by a certified survey map.
(10) 
In the event of the total destruction of the zero-lot-line duplex building, it shall be determined by agreement of both unit owners whether to rebuild, restore or sell the property. If damage is only to the unit on one parcel and such damage does not affect the other unit, the damaged unit shall be repaired by the owner of that damaged unit.

§ 22-9 Commercial districts.

A. 
Statement of intent. Four zoning districts are provided for commercial uses. When taken together, these districts permit development of property for the full range of commercial uses needed to serve the residents of the Sherwood region. The districts, while distinct, permit a harmonious spectrum of shopping and service opportunities. Specifically, the C-1 Central Business District, C-2 General Commercial District, and C-4 Office District are established to serve the commercial shopping and service needs of people living throughout the retail and service market area of the Village. The C-1 and C-2 Districts are alike with respect to many permitted uses, but they differ in respect to yard, merchandise storage and off-street parking requirements.
(1) 
The C-1 Central Business District is established to accommodate many businesses that wish to be grouped with little or no setbacks from each other to encourage comparison and multipurpose shopping by pedestrians. Most such firms rely upon indoor storage of merchandise and centralized (common) parking facilities.
(2) 
The C-2 General Commercial District is established to accommodate an extended pattern of commercial development with setbacks from lot lines in recognition of many single-purpose shopping trips, some outdoor storage of merchandise and off-street parking on the same lot.
(3) 
The C-3 Convenience Commercial District, on the other hand, is established to accommodate the commercial businesses that supply the day-to-day needs of people living in immediately adjacent residential neighborhoods. Since this district is an integral part of the neighborhood, an important objective is to maintain its compatibility with nearby residential areas by keeping its size small and its uses limited to those that must be located within convenient walking distance of the customers served.
(4) 
The C-4 Office District is intended to promote clusters of office uses in areas adjacent to the downtown and in selected places along principal arterials where heavy traffic may reduce the desirability of such locations for residential use and where conversion of structures to office use is desirable to maintain property values.
B. 
Permitted uses by right. The following uses, and no others, are permitted by right in the commercial districts, as indicated in the following table ("x" indicates use is permitted):
