Effective - 28 Aug 1949   64.080. Plans for major highway — duties of county commission — board of adjustment (certain first class counties). — Whenever a plan for major highways has been prepared, the county commission, upon recommendation of the planning commission, is hereby authorized and empowered to establish, regulate and limit and to change and amend, by order, building or setback lines on such major highways and to prohibit any new building being located within such building or setback lines outside the corporate limits of any city, village or incorporated town. The county commission shall provide for the method by which this section shall be administered and enforced and may provide for a board of adjustment with powers to modify or vary the regulations, in specific cases, in order that unwarranted hardship, which constitutes an unreasonable deprivation of use as distinguished from the mere grant of a privilege, may be avoided. If there is a county board of zoning adjustment, as herein provided, such board shall be appointed to serve as the board of adjustment for the building line regulations. If there be no county board of zoning adjustment, the personnel, length of terms, method of appointment and organization of the board of adjustment for the building line regulations shall be the same as provided in section 64.120 for the board of zoning adjustment. The regulations of this section shall not be adopted, changed or amended until a public hearing has been held thereon by the planning commission, public notice of which shall be given in the same manner as provided for the hearing in section 64.040. ­­-------- (L. 1941 p. 481 § 7, A. 1949 H.B. 2020)

If there be no county planning commission the county commission shall appoint a county zoning commission whose personnel, length of terms and organization shall be same as provided in sections 64.010 to 64.040 for a county planning commission. Such commission shall make a preliminary report and a proposed zoning order and shall hold public hearings thereon and shall afford persons interested an opportunity to be heard. A hearing shall be held in each township affected by the terms of such proposed order, public notice of which hearing shall be given in the same manner as provided for the hearing in section 64.040. Such notice shall state the time and place of the hearing and the place where copies of the proposed report and order will be accessible for examination by interested parties. Such hearings may be adjourned from time to time. Within ninety days after the final adjournment of such hearings the commission shall make a report and submit a proposed order to the county commission. The county commission may enact the order with or without change or may refer it back to the commission for further consideration. In case a written protest against the proposed zoning of any land lying within one and one-half miles of the limits of any municipality having a zoning ordinance is received from the city council or board of trustees thereof, the county commission shall not enact the proposed zoning of such land except by a record vote and after a statement of the reasons for such action shall be spread upon its minutes. In the preparation of its report and proposed zoning order the commission may incur such expenditures as shall be authorized by the county commission. ­­-------- (L. 1941 p. 481 § 10)  (1953) Where zoning order made by county court provided that no structure in district limited to specified agricultural purposes should exceed thirty-five feet in height, board of zoning adjustment could not grant permit for drive-in theater having screen in excess of that height.

The uses shall be limited to those which, if placed, specified or generally permitted in a specific district or districts, would pose undue regulatory difficulties. The uses shall be permitted only by a special use permit issued by the board as a permissive use and not as a rezoning after public hearing before the planning commission as provided by section 64.110, and a report and recommendation made by the commission to the board. The special permit shall set out regulations, restrictions, limitations and termination date so that reasonable control may be exercised over said uses; however, no such restriction shall relate to the identity of the owner. This section shall not allow the application of requirements for special use permits for any retail or retail service establishment in a district in which retail and retail service establishments generally are permitted uses, nor for any wholesale distribution establishment in a district in which wholesale storage and distribution establishments generally are permitted uses. ­­-------- (L. 1993 H.B. 910 § 64.120 subsec. 4)
