A. Purpose. The Village recognizes that consequences of certain land use activities, whether intentional or accidental, can seriously impair groundwater quality. The purpose of the Municipal Well Recharge Area Overlay District (MW-1) is to protect municipal groundwater resources from certain land use activities by imposing appropriate restrictions upon lands located within the approximate groundwater recharge area of the Village's municipal wells. The restrictions imposed herein are in addition to those of the underlying residential, commercial, or industrial zoning districts or any other provisions of this chapter.

B. Zones A and B; well diameter; determination of prohibited use.

(1) The Municipal Well Recharge Area Overlay District is hereby divided into Zone A and Zone B as follows:

(a) Zone A is identified as the primary source of water for the municipal well aquifer and as the area most likely to transmit groundwater contaminants to the municipal wells. Zone A is more restrictive than Zone B.
(b) Zone B is identified as a secondary source of water for the municipal well aquifer and as an area where there is a lower probability of surface contaminants reaching the municipal well fields. Zone B is less restrictive than Zone A.

(2) Well diameter.

(a) The well on Cramer Street, Zone A and Zone B, shall be 200 feet in diameter.
(b) The well on Walter Road, Zone A, shall be 500 feet and Zone B should be 1/4 mile in diameter.

(3) Whether a prohibited use is occurring within a zone shall be determined by measuring the distance from the center of the well to the actual edge of the prohibited use and not the edge of a building or structure enclosing that use.
