Section 2.32 PLAN COMMISSION
Chapter 2.32.060 Official comprehensive plan and official map.
An official comprehensive plan, or any amendment thereof,
or addition thereto, proposed by a
plan commission shall be effective in the municipality and contiguous area herein prescribed
only after its formal adoption by the corporate authorities. Such plan shall be advisory and in and
of itself shall not be construed to regulate or control the use of private property in any way,
except as to such part thereof as has been implemented by ordinances duly enacted by the
corporate authorities. At any time or times, before or after the adoption of the official
comprehensive plan by the corporate authorities, such corporate authorities may designate by
ordinance an official map, which map may consist of the whole area included within the official
comprehensive plan or one or more separate geographical or functional parts, and may include all
or any part of the contiguous unincorporated area within one and one-half miles from the
corporate limits of the municipality. Such map or maps shall be made a part of the ordinance,
which ordinance shall specifically state standard requirements of the municipality relating to size
of streets, alleys, public ways, parks, playgrounds, school sites, other public grounds and ways
for public service facilities; the kind and quantity of materials which shall be used in the
construction of streets and alleys; and the kind and quality of materials for public service
facilities as may be consistent with Illinois Commerce Commission or industry standards, and
shall contain the standards required for drainage and sanitary sewers and collection and treatment
of sewage. The map shall be drawn to scale, shall be reasonably accurate, and shall show north
point, section lines and numbers, and streams.
The official comprehensive plan and the ordinance or ordinances
including the official map
shall be placed on file with the municipal clerk and shall be available at all times during business
hours for public inspection. Copies of the plan, all ordinances implementing the same and
including the official map, shall be made available to all interested parties upon payment of such
sum as the corporate authorities shall determine to be adequate to reimburse the general fund of
the municipality for the cost of printing and distributing the same. (Prior code § 3-3-6)
