districts will continue to be recognized as valid zoning districts
for those parcels located in such districts which are currently zoned
and are subject to preliminary or final plat approval or which are
otherwise developed in such districts as of the date of the adoption
of this chapter; provided, however, that in order to effectuate the
purpose and intent of this chapter and the goals and objectives of
the Village's Comprehensive Plan, such zoning districts are not available
for development after the date of the adoption of this chapter under
the terms of said zoning districts on properties which are not subject
to preliminary or final plat approval as of the date of the adoption
of this chapter, or which are not subject to an existing court decree,
or are not otherwise developed:

A.
The location and boundaries of the zoning districts established by
this chapter are as shown on the Official Zoning Map, which, together
with all explanatory matter thereon, is hereby adopted by reference
and declared to be a part of this chapter.[1] The Zoning Maps, together with everything shown thereon
and all amendment thereto, shall be a part of this chapter as if fully
set forth herein.
[1]
Editor's Note: The Zoning Map is on file in the Village offices.
B.
Inclusion. It is the intent of this chapter that the entire area
of the Village, including all land and water areas, rivers, streets,
alleys, railroads and other rights-of-way, be included in the districts
established by this chapter. Any area not shown on the Official Zoning
Map as being included in any district shall be deemed to be in the
E-1 Single-Family Estate Residence District.
C.
Boundaries of districts. When uncertainty exists with respect to
the boundaries of the various districts as shown on the Official Zoning
Map, the following rules shall apply:
(1)
The district boundaries are the center lines of streets or alleys,
unless otherwise indicated. Where designation of a boundary line on
the Official Zoning Map coincides with the location of a street or
alley, easements, railroads, and rights-of-way, the center line of
such street or alley shall be construed to be the boundary of such
district.
(2)
Where the 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 such districts.
(3)
Where the district boundaries do not coincide with the location
of streets, alleys or lot lines, the district boundary shall be determined
by the use of the scale shown on the Official Zoning Map.
(4)
When a lot held in one ownership on the effective date of this
chapter is divided by a district boundary line, the entire lot shall
be deemed to be located within the more restrictive district.
(5)
District boundary lines that follow or approximately follow
platted lot lines or other property lines as identified by the tax
index number of the parcel assigned by the Will County Supervisor
of Assessments shall be construed as following such lines.
(6)
District boundaries indicated as following railroad lines shall
be construed to be midway between the main tracks.
(7)
District boundaries indicated as following shorelines shall
be construed to follow such shorelines, and in the event of change
in the shoreline shall be construed as moving with the actual shoreline;
boundaries indicated as approximately following the center lines of
streams or other bodies of water shall be construed to follow such
center lines.
(8)
Streets or alleys that are shown on the map and which have heretofore
been vacated, or which are vacated hereafter, shall be in the same
district as the land abutting both sides of the street or alley. If
the land abutting each side of the street or alley was located in
different districts before the street or alley was vacated, the center
line of the vacated street or alley should be the district boundary.
D.
Streets and other rights-of-way. All streets, public ways, waterways
and railroad rights-of-way, if not otherwise specifically designated,
shall be deemed to be in the same zone as the property immediately
abutting upon such streets, public ways, waterways and railroad rights-of-way.
Where the center line of the street, public way, waterway or railroad
right-of-way serves as a district boundary, the zoning of such areas,
unless otherwise specifically designated, shall be deemed to be the
same as that of the abutting property up to such center line.
Unless otherwise provided for in an annexation agreement, all
land which may hereafter be annexed to the Village shall automatically
be classified in the E-1 Single-Family Estate Residence District.
