Latest version.

It shall be the policy of the village to rezone in the appropriate zoning classification residential property immediately contiguous to existing commercial zoning created by ordinance when extension of the commercial use is contemplated, provided the following conditions exist:
(1)

The commercial use requesting zoning in depth needs the additional zoning in order to meet the parking, loading and yard requirements of this chapter;

(2)

The residential property proposed for rezoning extends no deeper than two residential lots, not to exceed a combined total of 100 feet, from the lot line of the commercial use or from an alley contiguous to the commercial use;

(3)

The commercial use creates a landscaped area, fenced or hedged, of not less than five feet immediately adjacent to all residential property or to an alley which serves residential property. Such landscaped buffer zone shall not be used for parking, storage of containers or any use accessory to the commercial use but shall be maintained as a green strip buffer for the protection of the residential property.
