of' Ti10unt Prospect, passed and approved May 2, 1944, and as sub-
sequently amended and supplemented as follows:
To add thereto Section 3.02 SPECIAL USES:
(a) Purpose. 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 special uses which, because of their unique characteristi~s,
cannot be properly classified in any particular district or dlS-
tricts without consideration, in each case of the impact of those
uses upon neighboring land and of the public need for the particu-
lar use at the particular location. Such special uses fall into
two categories:
(1) Uses publically operated or traditionally affected
with a public interest;
"v""
(2) Uses entirely private in character but of such an
unusual nature that their operation may give rise to unique prob-
lems with respect to their impact upon neighboring property or
public facilities.
(b) Initiation of Special Use. Any person, firm or
corporation owning or lmving an interest in the subject property
may file an application to use such land for one or more of the
special uses provided for in this ordinance in the zoning district
in which the land is situated.
(c) Application for Special Use. An application for a
special use or expansion of a special use shall be f'iled with the
Village Clerk on a form prescribed by the Village Manager. The
application shall be accompanied by such plans and/or data pre-
scribed by the Village T!Ianager and shall include a statement .in
writing by the applicant and adequate evidence showing that the
proposed special use will conform to the standards set forth in
paragraph (f) of this Section 3.02.
Cd) Hearing on Application. Upon receipt in proper
form of the application and statement referred to in paragraph
(c) of this Section, the Board of Eppeals shall hold at least one
public hearing after notice as provided in Section 16 (c) <'5)
hereof.
(e) Authorization. For each application for a special
use the Board of Appeals shall report to the President and Board
of Trustees its findings and reco~mendation, including the sti-
pulations of additional conditions, and guarantees that such con-
ditions will be complied with when they are deemed necessary for
the protection of the public interest. The Board of Trustees,
subject to the requirements of this Section and the Statutes of
the State of Illinois, may grant or deny any application for a
special. use. Special uses sball only become effective by an
ordinance duly passed by the President and Board of Trustees.
(f) Standards. No special use shall be adopted by the
Board unless the following standards are found to exist:
(1) That the establisrunent, maintenance or operation
of the special use will not be detrhlental to or endanger the
public health, safety, morals, comfort or general welfare.
(2) That the special use will not be injurious to the
use and enjoyment of other property in the inunediate vicinity for
the purposes already per1llitted, nor substantially diminish and
impair property values within the neighborhood.
(3) That the establishment of the sp&cial use will not
impede the normal and orderly development and improvement of sur-
rounding property for uses permitted in the district.
(4) That adequate utilities, access roads, draingge~
and/or other necessary facilities have been or are being proviaed.
