In their interpretation and application, the
provisions of this chapter shall be held to be the minimum requirements
adopted for the promotion of the public health, safety, comfort, convenience
and general welfare. Except where specifically provided to the contrary,
it is not intended by this chapter to repeal, abrogate, annul or in
any way to impair or interfere with any rules, regulations or permits
previously adopted or issued or which shall be adopted or issued pursuant
to law relating to the use of buildings, structures, shelter or premises;
nor is it intended by this chapter to interfere with or abrogate or
annul any easements, covenants or other agreements between parties;
provided, however, that where this chapter imposes a greater restriction
upon the use of a building or premise or requires larger open spaces
than are imposed or required by any other statute, local law, rule,
regulation or permit or by any easement or agreement, the provision
of this chapter shall control.
Should any section or provision of this chapter
be decided by the courts to be unconstitutional or invalid, such decision
shall not affect the validity of this chapter as a whole or any part
thereof other than the part so decided to be unconstitutional or invalid.
Should any provision pertaining to such special permit uses be declared
unconstitutional or invalid, the Village Board declares that such
provisions would not be enacted in whole or in part, and that such
uses are declared prohibited, absent such special permit use regulation.
