The development and execution of this article is based upon the division of the Village into districts, within which districts the use of land and buildings and bulk and location of buildings and structures in relation to the land are mutually compatible and substantially uniform. However, there are certain uses which, because of their unique characteristics, cannot be properly classified as unrestricted permitted uses in any particular district or districts, without consideration, in each case, of the impact of those uses upon neighboring land or public facilities and of the public need for the particular use at a particular location. Such uses, nevertheless, may be necessary or desirable to be allowed in a particular district, provided that due consideration is given to location, development and operation of such uses. Such uses are classified as conditional uses.
A. 
The Village Board, after a public hearing, shall within a reasonable time grant or deny any application for a conditional use. Prior to the granting of a conditional use, the Board shall make findings based upon the evidence presented that the standards herein prescribed are being complied with. The Plan Commission shall submit a recommendation to the Board prior to the hearing. The Board may delegate authority to conduct the public hearing to the Plan Commission.
B. 
Any development within 500 feet of the existing or proposed rights-of-way of freeways, expressways, interstate and controlled access trafficways and within 1,500 feet of their existing or proposed interchange or turning lane rights-of-way shall be specifically reviewed by the highway agency that has jurisdiction over the traffic way. The Village Board shall request such review and await the highway agency's recommendation for a period not to exceed 60 days before taking final action.
C. 
Conditions such as landscaping, architectural design, type of construction, construction commencement and completion dates, sureties, lighting, fencing, planting screens, operation control, hours of operation, improved traffic circulation, deed restrictions, highway access restrictions, increased yards or parking requirements may be required by the Village Board upon its finding that these are necessary to fulfill the purpose and intent of this chapter.
D. 
Compliance with all other provisions of this chapter, such as lot width and area, yards, height, parking, loading, traffic, highway access, and performance standards, shall be required of all conditional uses.
Any person, firm, corporation or organization having a freehold interest or a possessory interest entitled to exclusive possession, or a contractual interest which may become a freehold interest, or an exclusive possessory interest, and which is specifically enforceable in the land for which a conditional use is sought, may file an application to use such land for one or more of the conditional uses provided for in this article in the zoning district in which such land is located.
A. 
Filing of application. An application for a conditional use shall be filed with the Village Building Inspector on a form prescribed by the Village. The application shall be accompanied by such plans and other information as may be prescribed by the Village and shall include a statement in writing by the applicant and adequate evidence showing that the proposed conditional use shall conform to the standards set forth in § 485-50 hereinafter. The Village may require such other information as may be necessary to determine and provide for an enforcement of this chapter, including a plan showing contours and soil types; high-water mark and groundwater conditions; bedrock, vegetative cover, specifications for areas of proposed filling, grading and lagooning; location of buildings, parking areas, traffic access, driveways, walkways, open spaces and landscaping; plans of buildings, sewage disposal facilities, water supply systems and arrangements of operations.
B. 
Application information. Applications for conditional use permits shall be made in duplicate to the Building Inspector on forms furnished by the Village and shall include the following:
(1) 
Names and addresses of the applicant, owner of the site, architect, professional engineer, contractor and all opposite and abutting property owners of record.
(2) 
Description of the subject site by lot, block and recorded subdivision or by metes and bounds; address of the subject site; type of structure; proposed operation or use of the structure or site; number of employees; and the zoning district within which the subject site lies.

The following conditions shall apply to all conditional uses:
A. 
Prior to the granting of any conditional use, the Village Board may stipulate such conditions and restrictions upon the establishment, location, construction, maintenance and operation of the conditional use as it may find necessary to promote the public health, safety and general welfare of the community and to secure compliance with the standards and requirements specified in § 485-50 above. In all cases in which conditional uses are granted, the Board shall require such evidence and guarantees as it may deem necessary as proof that the conditions stipulated in connection therewith are being and will be complied with.

B. 
The Village Board shall evaluate each application and may request assistance from any source which can provide technical assistance. The Village Board or Plan Commission may review the site, existing and proposed structures, architectural plans, neighboring uses, parking areas, driveway locations, highway access, traffic generation and circulation, drainage, sewerage and water systems and the proposed operation/use.
C. 
No alteration of a conditional use shall be permitted unless approved by the Village Board.
Where the Village Board has approved or conditionally approved an application for a conditional use, such approval shall become null and void within 12 months of the date of the Board's action unless the use is commenced, construction is underway or the current owner possesses a valid building permit under which construction is commenced within six months of the date of issuance and which shall not be renewed unless construction has commenced and is being diligently prosecuted.
The Village Board shall retain continuing jurisdiction over all conditional uses for the purpose of resolving complaints against all previously approved conditional uses. Such authority shall be in addition to the enforcement authority of the Building Inspector to order the removal or discontinuance of any unauthorized alterations or any violation of a condition imposed prior to or after approval or violation of any provision of this Code. Upon written complaint by any citizen or official, the Village Board shall initially determine whether said complaint indicates a reasonable probability that the subject conditional use is in violation of either one or more of the standards set forth in § 485-50 above, a condition of approval or other requirement imposed hereunder. Upon reaching a positive initial determination, a hearing shall be held upon notice as provided in § 485-49 above. Any person may appear at such hearing and testify in person or be represented by an agent or attorney. The Village Board may, in order to bring the subject conditional use into compliance with the standards set forth in § 485-50 or conditions previously imposed by the Board, modify existing conditions upon such use and impose additional reasonable conditions upon the subject conditional use. In the event that no reasonable modification of such conditional use can be made in order to assure that § 485-50A(1) and (2) will be met, the Village Board may revoke the subject conditional approval and direct the Building Inspector and the Village Attorney to seek elimination of the subject use. Following any such hearing, the decision of the Village Board shall be furnished the current owner of the conditional use in writing stating the reasons therefor.
