A.
Purpose. The Conservation and Open Space District is intended to
recognize the existence of major open space and recreational areas
in the Village and to protect the public health, safety, comfort and
welfare and reduce the financial burdens imposed on the Village and
its individuals which may result from improper use of lands which
may be subject to periodic flooding or erosion, to protect natural
resources such as woodlands and wildlife areas, and areas which constitute
natural recharge areas; and to provide for recreational activities
and areas of educational value.
The Conservation and Open Space District is intended to apply
to all public open space of notable quality such as forest preserve
property and to major private open spaces such as golf courses. It
is intended to be applied to publicly held lands or those which have
been limited to such uses by special permit, covenant, easement or
dedication.
B.
Performance Standards. All activities shall be conducted in such
a manner that there is no emission of smoke, particulate matter, radiation,
noise, glare, heat, odor and no other potential hazard that will endanger
health and safety within the community, or adversely affect the enjoyment
of the residential neighborhoods of the Village.
