No structure, land or water shall hereafter be used and no structure
or part thereof shall hereafter be located, erected, moved, reconstructed,
extended, enlarged, converted or structurally altered without full
compliance with the provisions of this chapter and all other applicable
Village, county and state regulations.
The following use restrictions and regulations shall apply:
A.
Principal uses. Only those principal uses specified for a district,
their essential services and the following shall be permitted in that
district:
(1)
Accessory uses. Accessory uses and structures are permitted in any

construction. Residential accessory uses shall not involve the conduct
of any business, trade or industry. Accessory uses include incidental
repairs; storage; parking facilities; gardening; servant's and
watchman's quarters not for rent; private swimming pools; and
private emergency shelters. Accessory buildings shall not occupy more
than 30% of the required area for the rear yard.
(2)
Unclassified or unspecified uses. Unclassified or unspecified uses
may be permitted by the Village Board after the Plan Commission has
made a review and recommendation, provided that such uses are similar
in character to the principal uses permitted in the district.
(3)
Temporary uses. Temporary uses such as real estate sales field offices
or shelters for materials and equipment being used in the construction
of a permanent structure may be permitted by the Village Board.
A.
No lot area shall be so reduced that the yards and open spaces shall
be smaller than is required by this chapter, nor shall the density
of population be increased in any manner except in conformity with
the area regulations hereby established for the district in which
a building or premises is located.

No part of a yard or other open space provided about any building
for the purpose of complying with the provisions of this chapter shall

the required street yards may be decreased in any residential, business

of the abutting structures on each side, but in no case less than
15 feet in the residential districts and five feet in any business
or industrial district.
On corner lots, the side yard facing the street shall not be

only for a depth of 120 feet from the line of the higher average established
grade plus 12 inches to the top of the basement wall.
The requirements for a rear yard for buildings on through lots

equivalent open space on the same lot in lieu of the required rear
yard, provided that the setback requirements on both streets be complied
with.

shall not occupy more than 30% of the area of the required rear yard,
shall not be more than 15 feet high and shall not be nearer than five

except for accessory buildings in a rear yard.
