Division of unincorporated territory into districts, purposes.
65.680. For any or all of the purposes of section 65.652, the
unincorporated territory may be divided into districts of such number, shape
and area as may be deemed best suited to carry out the purpose of sections
65.650 to 65.700 and shall be shown upon the zoning plan; and within such
districts the erection, construction, reconstruction, alteration, repair,
relocation or maintenance of buildings or structures and use of land and lots
may be regulated and restricted. All such regulations shall be uniform for
each class or kind of buildings or land uses throughout each district, but
the regulations in one district may differ from those in other districts.
The regulations shall be made in accordance with a comprehensive zoning plan
and shall give reasonable consideration, among other things, to the then
existing character of the districts, their suitability for particular uses,
conservation of the value of buildings and of existing development, and
encouragement of the most appropriate use of land throughout the township.
