A. Purpose and characteristics.
(1)
The M-1 Limited Manufacturing District is intended to provide
for limited manufacturing, wholesaling, warehousing and related uses
within an enclosed structure wherein no high-hazard uses are allowed
and the method of manufacturing is not injurious to the point of constituting
a nuisance to the occupants of adjacent properties by reason of the
emission or creation of noise, vibration, smoke, dust or particle
matters, toxic or noxious materials, odors, fire or explosive hazards,
glare or heat and located in those areas where the relationship to
surrounding land uses would create few problems of compatibility.
This district also allows for office parks or individual office buildings
and ancillary uses, which may or may not include space for manufacturing,
assemblies, or warehousing, but provide direct services to the employees
or customers or other uses in the area. It is anticipated that these
areas would be developed in an attractive parklike setting with landscaping,
consistent signage, and similar or compatible building materials and
designed to present an integrated image to customers. No such district
shall be established unless it is in compliance with Village adopted
or amended comprehensive, neighborhood and conceptual plans.
(2)
The uses allowed in the M-1 District are based on the Use and
Occupancy Classification specified in Chapter 3 of the 2006 International

A. Purpose and characteristics.
(1) The M-2 General Manufacturing District is intended to provide for
manufacturing, wholesaling, warehousing and related uses within an
enclosed structure in which high-hazard uses are located within limited
areas and the method of manufacturing is not injurious to the point
of constituting a nuisance to the occupants of adjacent properties
by reason of the emission or creation of noise, vibration, smoke,
dust or particle matters, toxic or noxious materials, odors, fire
or explosive hazards, glare or heat and located in those areas where
the relationship to surrounding land uses would create few problems
of compatibility. This district also allows for office parks or individual
office buildings and ancillary uses, which may or may not include
space for manufacturing, assemblies, or warehousing, but provide direct
services to the employees or customers or other uses in the area.
It is anticipated that these areas would be developed in an attractive
parklike setting with landscaping, consistent signage, and similar
or compatible building materials and designed to present an integrated
image to customers. No such district shall be established unless it
is in compliance with Village adopted or amended comprehensive, neighborhood
and conceptual plans.
(2) The uses allowed in the M-2 District are based on the Use and Occupancy
Classification specified in Chapter 3 of the 2006 International Building
Code (2006 IBC), as may be amended from time to time. Where a use
is proposed for a purpose that is not specifically provided in Chapter
3 of the 2006 IBC and is not specifically listed as a prohibited use
in the M-2 District, such use shall be classified in the group that
the occupancy most clearly resembles, according to the firesafety
and relative hazard involved. The Zoning Administrator shall make
the final determination if the use is allowed within the M-2 District.
B. Permitted uses. The following listed principal uses and certain unspecified principal uses approved pursuant to Subsection
C below are allowed as permitted uses in the M-2 District, subject to the requirements of Article

C. Unspecified permitted uses. The Zoning Administrator shall have authority to approve as a permitted use in the M-2 District a proposed principal use not listed in Subsection
B above if the proposed use is similar in character to one or more of the listed permitted uses in the M-2 District and is free of potential problems requiring special regulation. The Zoning Administrator shall make written findings supporting any such decision. Any use so approved shall be subject to all requirements of Subsection
B above. Notwithstanding the foregoing authorization, the following uses shall not be construed to be permitted uses in the M-2 District:
(1) Any listed permitted use or conditional use specified in the I-1, B-1, B-2, B-3, B-4, B-5, M-1, M-3 and M-4 Districts that is not specifically listed in Subsection
B above.

A. Purpose and characteristics.
(1)
The M-5 Production Manufacturing District is intended to provide
for manufacturing, assembly, office, and research and development
uses with limited warehouse and distribution uses within an enclosed
structure wherein no high hazard uses are allowed and the method of
manufacturing is not injurious to the point of constituting a nuisance
to the occupants of adjacent properties by reason of the emission
or creation of noise, vibration, smoke, dust or particle matters,
toxic or noxious materials, odors, fire or explosive hazards, glare
or heat and located in those areas where the relationship to surrounding
land uses would create few problems of compatibility. This district
also allows for office parks or individual office buildings and ancillary
uses, which may or may not include space for manufacturing, assemblies,
or research and development but provides direct services to the employees
or customers or other uses in the area. It is anticipated that these
areas would be developed in an attractive corporate parklike setting
with landscaping, consistent signage, and similar or compatible building
materials and designed to present an integrated image to customers.
No such district shall be established unless it is in compliance with
Village adopted or amended comprehensive, neighborhood and conceptual
plans.

Some of the uses allowed in the M-5 District are based on the
Use and Occupancy Classification specified in Chapter 3 of the 2006
International Building Code (2006 IBC), as may be amended from time
to time. Where a use is proposed for a purpose that is not specifically
provided in Chapter 3 of the 2006 IBC and is not specifically listed
as a prohibited use in the M-5 District, such use shall be classified
in the group that the occupancy most clearly resembles, according
to the firesafety and relative hazard involved. The Zoning Administrator
shall make the final determination if the use is allowed within the
M-5 District.

[Amended 7-20-2020 by Ord. No. 20-26]
A. The Village Board reserves the right, from time to time and on a
completely discretionary, case-by-case basis, to create a planned
development zoning district (PDD) which is unique and site-specific
for the purpose of accommodating, facilitating and regulating a particular
proposed development and use project. No specific criteria are set
out here to limit the Village Board's discretion in creating such
districts since the nature of the project characteristics which might
give rise to the desirability for a PDD cannot reasonably be foreseen.
Generally, however, the Village Board will consider a PDD only if
a proposed development and use project is not practicable under the
Village's traditional zoning districts; involves multiple uses; is
unusual, large and complex; and is so substantially in the public
interest as to justify extraordinary efforts to accommodate, facilitate
and regulate it. Because the creation of a PDD requires an enormous
commitment of resources by the Village, no person shall have any right
to a PDD classification under any circumstances, and no person shall
have any right to a public hearing on a proposed ordinance to create
a PDD, unless such hearing is specifically approved by the Village
Board after a detailed report on the proposed PDD from the Village
staff. Since a PDD cannot be created by the Village Board unilaterally
and must be consented to by the affected landowner(s), and since the
drafting of a proposed PDD ordinance is necessarily a difficult, time-consuming
and cooperative effort, and since the creation of a PDD will usually
require the negotiation and drafting of a companion development agreement
relating to the public and private infrastructure that is required
to serve the proposed development and use(s), the preparation of a
proposed PDD ordinance will generally involve extensive closed-door
discussions and negotiations between members of the Village staff
and the Village attorneys and representatives of the owner(s) and
developer(s) of the land covered by the proposed PDD. The purpose
of such discussions and negotiations shall not be to commit the Village
Board in any way to the proposed ordinance but rather to mutually
explore the needs and desires of the owner(s) and developer(s) and
the requirements, policies and practices of the Village, to attempt
to structure a proposed ordinance that both the Village staff and
the owner(s) and developer(s) can support, to identify potential problems
and issues which should be addressed at a public hearing, and to attempt
to work out potential solutions to any such problems or issues, so
that the proposed PDD regulations and all relevant facts, issues and
problems can be presented meaningfully and efficiently to the Village
Plan Commission, the Village Board and all interested persons at a
public hearing.
B. Approved PDD ordinance are on file with the Village Zoning Administrator
and posted under "Public Documents" online with the Village Code of
Ordinances.
Properties within the Village that are located
within three miles of the Kenosha Regional Airport boundaries shall
comply with the City of Kenosha's Airport Overlay District regulations.
