The District is intended to accommodate the continuance of uses in existing shopping plazas and to allow the redevelopment and improvement of the areas over time. It is the intent and purpose of this District to protect areas for commercial development and the generation of sales tax revenue from the encroachment of nontaxable bodies including non-commercial places of assembly as defined in this Title.

      2.   LOR - Limited Office and Research District: The LOR Limited Office and Research District is intended to accommodate professional office and scientific research facilities conducted wholly indoors and with minimal noise or nuisance impact on surrounding areas.

      3.   M-1 - Light Manufacturing District: The M-1 Light Manufacturing District is intended to accommodate facilities involved in the manufacturing and processing of goods and materials, distribution, storage, and similar intensity uses. Light manufacturing uses have minimal noise or nuisance impact on surrounding areas and should be clustered together in industrial parks. Due to the intensity of land use associated with the M-1 District, the district should not be located adjacent to residentially zoned property. Where M-1 zoned property is currently located adjacent to residentially zoned property, adequate screening and buffering should be provided to mitigate negative impacts.

      4.   I - Institutional District: The I Institutional District is intended to provide space for existing and future governmental uses, municipal buildings, parks and recreation areas, noncommercial places of assembly, and other institutional uses. (Ord. 23-0-05, 1-23-2023)

   (B)   Vacations: Whenever any street, alley, or other public way is vacated by official action of the Planning and Zoning Commission, the zoning district adjoining each side of such street, alley, or public way shall be automatically extended to the centerline of such vacated property (or to the reversionary owner should such reversionary rights be different than the centerline of the right-of-way). All area included in the vacation shall then be subject to all appropriate regulations of the extended districts.

   (C)   Boundaries:

      1.   In the event that uncertainties exist with respect to the intended boundaries of the zoning districts as shown on the zoning map, the following rules shall apply.

         (a)   The zoning district boundaries shall be the centerlines of streets or alleys unless otherwise indicated, and where the designation of a boundary line on the zoning map coincides with the location of a street or alley, the centerline of such street or alley shall be construed to be the boundary of such district.

         (b)   Where the zoning district boundaries do not coincide with the location of streets or alleys, but do coincide with lot lines, such lot lines shall be construed to be the boundary of the district.

         (c)   Where the zoning district boundaries do not coincide with the location of streets, alleys or lot lines, the district boundaries shall be determined by the measurements shown on the zoning map or in the absence of such measurements, the district boundaries shall be determined by scaling the zoning map.

         (d)   Determinations as to the exact locations of zoning district boundary lines shall be made by the Village Administrator or their Designee. (Ord. 23-0-05, 1-23-2023)
