The zoning plan and ordinance was drawn up by Har- land Bartholomew, city plan engineer. It will be remembered that Kenil- worth was one of the first municip- alities to take advantage of the state law permitting zoning. Through some technicality in the ordinance the form- er Kenilworth law was declared illeg- al. From that time until the end of last month the village remained un- zoned. Zoning Districts Under the ordinance passed by the council Kenilworth is divided into five districts. These districts are "A" Res- idential, "B" Residential, "C" Res- idential, "D" Commercial and "E" Commercial. Zone "A" according to the ordin- ance will be reserved for one family dwellings, churches, schools (elemen- tary and high), libraries and acces- sory buildings. By accessory build- ings is meant a garage or stable locat- ed 100 feet from the front lot line or a garage attached to the house or other building. In zone "A" and in fact all over Kenilworth, no building is to exceed 35 feet in height, unless special circumstances intervene. In zone A, also, there must be a front yard of 40 foot depth and a back vard of 25 feet. Every lot is to have an area of 12,500 sq. feet for every family living on the lot. Covers East Portion In zone "A" is included all territory east of the tracks except the area now occupied by stores, and the N. W. quarter of the S. E. quarter of sec- tion 28-42-13 on the west side of the tracks. Like zone "A," zone "B" is reserved for one-family dwellings, churches, libraries, schools and accessory build- ings. Most of the requirements are the same as those for zone "A" in- cluding a six-foot side yard. The only differences are that the front yard may have a depth of only 30 feet and the lot area per family may be re- duced to 6,000 sa. feet, a TIT S FOU IRC INDE t why SALE FOUR sewing machine, $8: 1 mahogany living room table, $15; 1 double iron bed and spring, $4: 2 bath room gas heaters, set rustic garden furniture. 834 Green- wood Ave. Glencoe.

Zone "C" also includes two- family dwellings, boarding houses, edu- cational, philanthropic and elementary institutions, private clubs, lodges and fraternities and accessory buildings. In this zone the front yard may be re- duced to 25 feet and the side yard to 5 feet. Other requirements remain the same except that the lot area need be only 2,500 sq. feet per family. Zone "C" includes all land west of the tracks and north of Kenilv/orth avenue not included in zone "B" ex- cept lots 6 and 7 and lots 27 to 29, inclusive, in block 5. The other two districts, "D" and "E," are commercial districts. Zone "D" may be used for any purpose that is permitted in zone "C" and in addi- tion for retail and other light com- merical industries not employing more than five men. Building requirements are the same in "D" as they are in "C" except for the fact that no front yard in necessary. Zone "E" pre- serves the same requirements as zone "D." It is open to the heavier com- mercial pursuits. Zones "D" and "E" include all of the territory not in- cluded in the other three zones into which Kenilworth has been divided by the ordinance.
