A. 
The development and execution of a zoning ordinance is based upon the division of the Village into districts within which districts the use of land and buildings and the bulk and location of buildings and structures in relation to the land are substantially uniform. It is recognized, however, that there are uses which, because of their unique characteristics, cannot be properly classified in any particular district or districts without consideration, in each case, of the impact of those uses upon neighboring land and of the public need for the particular use at the particular location. Such uses fall into two categories;
(1) 
Uses publicly operated or traditionally affected with a public interest;
(2) 
Uses entirely private in character but of such an unusual nature that their operation may give rise to unique problems with respect to their impact upon neighboring property or public facilities.
B. 
The special use permits may be recommended by the Zoning Board of Appeals to the Village Board following a public hearing and based upon the evidence presented at such hearings as prescribed herein for the special use permit.
[Amended at time of adoption of Code (see Ch. 100, General Provisions, Art. I)]
No premises or building, regardless of the location thereof in either of the several categories of districts established by Article I, shall be used for any special use or uses hereinafter enumerated until and unless the Zoning Commission, after proper notice and upon public hearing, determine that such special use or uses of the premises or building in question will substantially serve the public convenience, health or welfare and will not be injurious to the appropriate uses of other property in general vicinity and shall thereupon grant permission for such special use or uses. In permitting a special use, the Zoning Commission may establish appropriate conditions and safeguard as a part of such permission.
The special use designation is for the current property owner or resident only and may not be transferred, sold, or gifted to any other person, business, partnership, corporation, LLC, or other entity. Once the holder of a special use permit ceases their business and/or interest in the property, the designation of that property will revert back to the originally classified zoned district.
[Amended at time of adoption of Code (see Ch. 100, General Provisions, Art. I)]
To obtain a special use permit, the requestor must appear in front of the Village Board of Trustees. In the event the Board of Trustees have been briefed, a public zoning meeting will be scheduled by the Village President and the Clerk/Treasurer after the requestor pays in full to the Village Clerk/Treasurer a nonrefundable administrative fee, as set from time to time by the Board of Trustees, which covers meeting expenses, advertising and Village Attorney fees.
